In a tucked-away corner of a hangar-like exhibition space in Munich, US electronic design automation (EDA) company Mentor Graphics is reflecting on its recent status, as a small but notable function within German mega-corp Siemens. “It probably sounds like a plug but I’ve got to...

The sense to design and build a custom system-on-chip (SoC) is plain, we understand from an earlier companion piece. As we also understand, from the first part of this post, the process of IoT chip design is logical, much like constructing a printed circuit...

Siemens-owned software company Mentor Graphics has released a new design platform for engineers to twin and test printed circuitboard (PCB) prototypes virtually, before they are put into production, as the basis of embedded systems in assorted IoT devices. The new platform, called Xpedition, provides the...

If you design IoT medical devices, you care about coexistence testing. EMI testing is essential, but it doesn’t guarantee your device will operate in the presence of competing signals. Watch Keysight’s webinar to learn how coexistence testing can make the difference between your device’s success...

ADLINK has launched an IoT design tool to help developers test the viability of their ‘internet of things’ (IoT) experiments before they put them into production. The service does away with the need for upfront investment, reducing the risk of failure, said the Taiwan...

IoT devices may not work as designed when exposed to real world conditions. Build confidence in your IoT device design by simulating real-world RF environmental conditions during test and ensure reliable and robust IoT device performance.

Both vendors have announced progress with IoT testing solutions Test equipment vendors are wasting no time in readying their solutions to support the low-power wide area connectivity technologies that enable the internet of things. Anritsu says it is the first test company to earn global certification...

Testing internet of things (IoT) devices is critical for companies deploying a large number of small IoT devices as failures in the devices could lead to significant losses. “The main value add of the internet of things comes essentially from application software that relies on...

IoT testing takes center stage as China Telecom looks to deploy a nationwide IoT network. U.S. firm Keysight Technologies announced its cellular-based internet of things testing solution was selected by China Telecom to help accelerate its narrowband IoT chipset and module certification process. Based...
