PXIe
An ideal platform for complex RADAR/LIDAR, wireless communications or automated test systems. Each chassis combines an multi-core Intel CPU running Windows/Linux with a backplane providing four or eight-lane high-bandwidth PCI Express connections to each payload slot, capable of sustained 3400 to 7000 MB/s data flow. PXIe systems can run the identical application software, drivers and operating-systems as desktop or industrial PCs. PXIe chassis support concurrent use of 6, 9 or 18 plug-in cards, so it is feasible to configure sophisticated systems with myriad I/O connections.

EMSCAN Booth 525
EMxpert ERX+
EMSCAN’s EMxpert ERX+ enables the PCB and design engineers to diagnose EMC/EMI problems between 150 kHz and 8 GHz. ERX+ provides eight levels of resolution (60 microns to 7.5 mm). Level 1 resolution (7.5 mm) allows the engineers to visualize the hot spots, current loops or intermittent problems in real-time. After locating the unintended radiators, engineers can select the resolution level based on the density of their board design. The built-in spectrum analyzer turns ERX+ into a plug-and-play test system.

Res-Net Microwave Booth 610
RF Dielectric Material
CVD (chemical vapor deposition) synthetic diamond has outstanding thermal conductivity, 3 to 4x better than copper. In addition, the low dielectric constant makes CVD diamond an excellent RF dielectric material for high frequency and high-power applications. Combining advanced thin-film processing techniques and extensive high frequency design experience, Res-Net Microwave has created a line of high performance CVD components that can withstand even the most challenging space environment. Res-Net Microwave offers the highest quality resistors, terminations and thermal jumpers on diamond substrate.
