Tough connector integrates into clothing

[ad_1] For easy connection, the key-less plug and socket can be presented to each other as any angle around the mating axis “ensuring that the cable can always go straight to the device. No more twists and turns means shorter cables in the equipment body-worn by dismounted soldiers, healthcare professionals or patients, civil engineers, surveyorsRead more about Tough connector integrates into clothing[…]

Satellites and microchips: the surprising tech behind the World Cup ball

[ad_1] There are some people who still think that a 1990 World Cup ball, the Etrusca Unico, is up in orbit somewhere. When England midfielder Chris Waddle missed his spot-kick in a penalty shoot-out in the semi-final defeat to West Germany, the ball he made contact with went high over the bar – and justRead more about Satellites and microchips: the surprising tech behind the World Cup ball[…]

ADI claims widest bandwidth RF transceiver

ADI claims widest bandwidth RF transceiver

[ad_1] ADI claims to have  the industry’s widest bandwidth RF transceiver with an IC which  Is a single radio platform to accelerate the deploymentof 5G, sustain 2G/3G/4G coverage, and simplify phased array radar design. The ADRV9009 RF transceiver delivers twice the bandwidth (200 MHz) of previous generation devices and replaces as many as 20 components, cuttingRead more about ADI claims widest bandwidth RF transceiver[…]

Frequency hopping once per bit foils hackers

Frequency hopping once per bit foils hackers

[ad_1] The system can protect against selective jamming. For example, explained the University, Bluetooth LE has per-packet hopping across 80 1MHz channels, hopping every 612μs “but attackers can locate the channel during the first 1μs and then jam the packet”, allowing them to over-write the data in the remainder of packet”. Also, with BLE modulation,Read more about Frequency hopping once per bit foils hackers[…]

Acoustic wave coupling enables all-silicon laser

Acoustic wave coupling enables all-silicon laser

[ad_1] “Silicon’s intrinsic properties, although very useful for many chip-scale optical technologies, make it extremely difficult to generate laser light using electrical current,” said Yale scientist Nils Otterstrom. “It’s a problem that’s stymied scientists for more than a decade. To circumvent this issue, we need to find other methods to amplify light on a chip.Read more about Acoustic wave coupling enables all-silicon laser[…]
