Intel originally designed the Pentium M processor for mobile systems, such as notebooks, to meet the special requirements in this area. Nevertheless, these same characteristics also predestine this processor for embedded applications

A technique for fabricating liquid cooling channels onto the backs of high-performance integrated circuits could allow denser packaging of chips while providing better temperature control and improved reliability

Electronic technologies are increasingly used in equipment that has an impact on safety. Unfortunately, all electrical and electronic technologies are inherently prone to suffering inaccuracy due to electromagnetic interference (EMI)

As PC technology has evolved, the ability to use standard desktop and portable computers for test, control and design applications has improved dramatically

Whether you design or purchase connectors, understanding connector technology and discussing technology trends requires a basic look at where connectors fit into the world of electrical/electronic applications. This article explains that relationship

While the degree of precision and reproduction accuracy are unable to match those of costly digital systems, there are many applications that do not require this performance level

The world is going wireless. Currently, there are about 80 million wireless-monitoring systems in use worldwide. Oak Ridge National Laboratory recently outlined 12 top requirements for an ideal wireless sensor

Engineers at Purdue University have developed a way of producing hydrogen for fuel cells to automatically recharge batteries in portable electronics, such as notebook computers, and eliminate the need to use a wall outlet

Russell Dupuis talks about the development and future of this revolutionary technology in conversation with Jane Sanders

More than 250 delegates attended the two-day event that attracted speakers from countries that included Britain, the US, China and India

The value of worldwide shipments of electronic displays is expected to grow to $114.8 billion by 2006. Yet the price of the displays is continuing to come down and the market for displays will continue to see high growth for many years to come

Researchers at the University of Southern California's Viterbi School of Engineering have demonstrated a novel high-resolution ultrasonic transmission tomography (HUTT) system that offers 3D images of soft tissue

DC type cooling fans are essential for many different types of cooling applications, but they do have a relatively short life expectancy when used on products that are designed to operate continuously in hot or hostile environments

How do you make measurements safely? What features do you need? What is the easiest way to get the most out of your meter? Which meter is best suited to the environment you're working in?

The battery pack is a mystical black box that does not change size, weight and colour during its lifetime. Neither does it reveal the charge level and state-of-health. And yet, the battery plays a key role in many portable applications
