"How To" engineering guides expand

cc%20Components%20collection.jpg

We've updated our collection of "How To" guides for technical engineering problems.

The selection of in-depth, engineer-oriented content already guided you through such areas as:

* selecting the right analogue switch
* optimising mobile power efficiency
* testing high-power LEDs
* choosing the right power supply
* succeeding with ultra-small QFN packages
* reading a semiconductor data sheet

Now, new additions comprise:

How to specify a connector for power rating
The task of specifying a connector is not simply a matter of selecting the right power or current capability; there is an ever growing array of connector options available for a wide range of applications. When considering a particular application, the designer needs to gather all the relevant information together in order to weigh up the options available and select the most suitable connector.

How to specify and verify power-cycled SoCs for checking and coverage
The growth in the number of PDs leads to even more growth in the number of power-up and power-down transitions that must be verified before the chip is fabricated.
