The Star of Switching is Often Overlooked
|
|
Walt Strickler from Giga-tronics Incorporated
2009

Switching is probably the most overlooked and undervalued part of a test system design. Great attention is spent selecting the measurement and stimulus instruments. But more often than not, the signal switching solution does not complement the instruments. It doesn’t matter how accurate the instruments are if the signals pass through a poor switch to get to them. Engineers are familiar with test instruments because they have used them during their school years and ..

Matrix Switches
|
|
Brett Chermansky - Manager of Engineering, JFW Industries, Inc.
2009
|
|
In the RF&Wireless Industries, system performance requirements seem to expand almost daily. These systems continue to encompass more and more of today’s broad-reaching technologies. Engineers working in this environment are often tasked with designs that must combine and distribute RF signals from multiple input devices. While at the same time, making those signals available via multiple outputs. In many cases, an RF Matrix Switch can be the solution to this pr..
