New chipset enables 2.5-Gb Ethernet over single UTP wire with near-zero latency
The VA608A chipset provides the high-speed bandwidth and resilience required for the many applications in the connected and autonomous car, guaranteeing a flexible and future-proof architecture. The chipset delivers data transmission speeds of up to 16 Gbps and enables automakers to extend native PCIe as a long-distance in-vehicle connectivity technology – up to 15 m/50 […]
Multi-service optical platform helps extend, monitor networks
As networks aim to meet growing 5G connectivity demands, mobile and fixed-line operators need the ability to both increase capacity and monitor network performance to deliver high-quality connectivity. To meet this need, ProLabs has announced its latest pay-as-you-grow optical solution, the EON-OMP-2 Multi-Service Platform. Providing operators with the tools to build and monitor optical networks […]
Teardown: Dr. Pocket TENS therapy pain relief kit
The electronic TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) therapy pain relief kit called Dr. Pocket uses electronic pulse stimulation via TENS to deliver electric impulses through electrodes in a pad that sits on the user’s skin. This device has multiple modes of different pulse frequencies covering transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and powered muscle stimulation which are […]
A better way to measure lidar
The special demands of sensors needed for autonomous driving have brought suggestions for different measurement metrics. Leland Teschler, Executive Editor A few months ago, sensor maker AEye made a media splash when it claimed it had developed a super-speedy lidar sensor that could hit a scan rate of 100 Hz or more. That speed outpaces […]
What high-speed data means for connected vehicles
Technologies behind multigigabit Ethernet and 5G could transform transportation. Harsh Patel | Molex The connected vehicle segments are growing at a rapid pace. By 2020, industry analysts predict there will be 250 million connected vehicles and 10 million self-driving cars on the road, and 470 million connected/autonomous vehicles by 2025. As the number of connected […]
Flash memory keeps cars connected
A new kind of flash memory is optimized specifically to handle the hostile environment imposed on electronics in vehicular uses. Leland Teschler | Executive Editor You’d have to say the NAND flash memory had an inauspicious beginning. Invented in 1987 by Toshiba, the first NAND flash chip didn’t sell until 1995 when it finally found […]
Tech refresher: Basics of flash, NAND flash, and NOR flash
Flash memory stores information in an array of memory cells made from floating-gate transistors. Each memory cell resembles a standard metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) except that the transistor has two gates instead of one. The floating gate (FG) and the control gate (CG) control the current flowing between the source and drain. The CG resembles […]
Data injection — Testing autonomous sensors through realistic simulation
Proof that autonomous vehicles are safe to put on the road begins with rigorous models of the sensors that guide them. Holger Krumm | dSPACE GmbH Onboard sensors are critical for autonomous vehicles to navigate the open road, but the real environment is full of obstacles. Everyday interferences such reflective surfaces, whiteout conditions, fog, rain, […]
