SETTING THE BENCHMARK

Electronic products can be affected by radio waves produced by electronic devices and can cause interference via their electromagnetic (EM) energy. Because of this, developing electronic products for modern electronic device-filled environments requires thoughtful design and extensive knowledge of...

For the aerospace and defense industry, electronic products must always perform reliably, especially when exposed to harsh or poor operating conditions. Hostile operating environments can be defined by parameters such as shock, vibration, temperature, humidity, or any combination thereof....

Modern electronic circuit designs pack as much functionality and performance as possible into the smallest spaces, but this requires meeting challenging electrical and mechanical goals for printed circuit boards (PCBs). Fortunately, for years, Benchmark’s PCB design engineers have tracked the...

Wireless signals keep devices connected in virtually any environment. However, confined areas can pose challenges for many closely located users and their wireless devices. This is especially true when some of these devices (e.g., remote analyzers, monitors, and pacemakers) are part of the recovery...

Successful medical device design and development requires a multidisciplinary approach. Collaborating with a seasoned industrial design team — along with an experienced team of mechanical, electrical, and software engineers — will help to ensure your product’s safety and efficacy, as well as...

This year, the International Microwave Symposium (IMS) held their flagship event from June 11 – 16 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California. The week was packed with technical lectures, bootcamps, interactive forums, exhibits, and showcases featuring well over 500 exhibiting...
