SETTING THE BENCHMARK

The Benchmark Site Profile is an ongoing blog feature highlighting the Benchmark engineering and manufacturing teams worldwide. Tune in to read the next installment in the series. This month features Benchmark Lark Technology's engineering and manufacturing team in Tijuana, Mexico - Rubi.

Bandwidth is everything, at least for Fifth Generation (5G) cellular wireless networks. With each generation of cellular wireless networks, the number of users and their applications and devices has grown steadily, requiring more bandwidth for more communications. To meet this increased demand for...

Military service members depend on a growing number of electronic functions, including communications, electronic warfare (EW), and radar. Defense OEMs face increasingly complex challenges in supplying solutions for these electronic functions due to an ever-increasing demand for size, weight,...

Developing technology for space is challenging. Developing technology for interplanetary space requires truly stratospheric skills. Here at Benchmark Lark Technology, we don't shy away from a challenge, and nothing flexes our technical muscles more than partnering with the NASA-Jet Propulsion...

Designing and manufacturing RF filters is a complex process. There are thousands of variations of the component based on the customer's needs, the purpose of the system, and the environment in which it will be performing. It takes a team of engineers with deep experience in various applications to...

Benchmark's Kevin Walker sat down with Circuits Assembly Magazine Editor Mike Buetow for an episode of PCB Chat to discuss the value prop of our new state-of-the-art advanced electronics manufacturing facility in Phoenix. 

Listen to the complete podcast here.

Applications relying on RF systems—everything from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to radar systems—have evolved towards lighter, high-performance designs but are frequently constrained by lump-element RF components. Benchmark's new filter product lines were designed to give RF engineers new...

Optimizing size, weight, and power (SWaP) is the latest technology in electronics manufacturing. Be it medical, aerospace and defense, communications, or the consumer market, the need of the hour is a miniaturized product without any compromise of computing capability and efficiency.

Space captures the imagination, offering new frontiers to explore and endless technological challenges to overcome. Electronics that operate in space are often cutting-edge but also need to be tough; they contend with radiation, extreme temperatures and the stress of moving from the ground...

"Listening to the speakers at the recentSEMI Arizona Breakfast Forumexpound on the virtues ofa connected world enabled by 5Gmade me think that in the future, everything will be possible. Perhaps Scott Hicar, CIO of Benchmark Electronics, the company hosting the event, said it best:"

5G networks are not new networks; they are add-ons of new advanced technologies to the current 4G LTE-A (Gigabit LTE) networks. For companies contemplating the impact 5G might have on their business, understanding exactly what 5G is (and what it isn’t) is essential. In this video blog, Benchmark's...

5G is the next phase in the evolution of global communication networks. When the technology is fully realized and implemented on a massive scale, we’ll see a world connected like never before.
