• Compliant Tail (Press-Fit) Contacts in Mil Circular Connectors (.pdf)
  in the aviation world now have many I/O connectors, all terminating. to a PCB inside the box. Some applications have as many as 6 or 8. connectors with each having up to 128 contacts. Using solder PC Tails,. these connectors represent a tremendous heat sink on the PCB, making. soldering to the board...
• Power in small packages
  the module to the board and electrically connect the baseplate to the ground plane. The standoffs also provide an easy way to secure a heat sink to the module baseplate. Because converter modules are decoupled from header sockets, they're not reflow soldered. This means the modules are not subject to heat...
• Encoder helps drag bike hook up and go
  on the clutch of their KTMpowered Salakazi Racing drag bike. The nitromethane-fired 1,995-cc KTM engine makes 1,500 hp at 7,500 rpm, enough to propel the 800-lb dragster to nearly 200 mph in about 6.7 sec on a quarter-mile track. The trick is getting that much power to the ground from a dead stop...
• The Ogallala: Gauging, Protecting the Aquifer's Health
  Agricultural engineer Prasanna Gowda (on ladder) and hydrologic technician Kim Bush determine the water loss from a field by measuring the sensible heat flux with a large-aperture scintillometer. Their research efforts are part of ongoing studies to preserve one of the world's largest aquifers...
• SMD Resistor Thermal Analysis
  an infinite. quantity of thermal flux can be absorbed without an increase in temperature). In an actual heat sink there will be a thermal gradient around the area of flux entrance,. but here this effect is assumed negligible due to the fact that the thermal resistance. of the PC board is typically...
• Dealing With Noise Generated By A DC/DC Converter
  shield is used. ear Technology offers the LT1683 Low-Noise PWM that can. For a better understanding of how internal noise is. be used for push-pull converters. The capacitance C -H is. D. S. generated, Figure 1 shows a typical forward converter with. the capacitance between the drain and the heat sink...
• Engineering Green
  , CO2, humidity, 3D wind movement, heat flux, solar radiation, and photosynthetic active radiation. The research findings could potentially help curtail the impact businesses and factories have on the environment. For example, should a widespread carbon cap and trade policy be adopted, businesses...
• BEAUTY AND BRAWN
  into the gas forge. The billet is then brought to a red heat in the forge at which time an anhydrous borax flux is applied. The billet is brought to weld heat, then hand hammered to ensure the layers stick together. It is reheated in the forge and hammered with a trip hammer to approximately three times...
• Using High-Speed Infrared Imaging as a Tool to Design Materials with Further Improved Machinability (.pdf)
  be assessed. This is complex, cumbersome and time-consuming due to many. parameters involved: material law behavior, friction coefficient, strains, strain rates, heat fluxes, etc. In other. words, many variables and assumptions playing critical roles in the Finite Element Method (FEM). This would...
• Tombstone Troubleshooting
  that is tombstone free with. 0603 components may be unsuited to 0402. components. As newer, smaller chips are introduced. into your production process, incremental changes. may be required to deal with the new challenge. Pad 2 Pad 1. Example: if Pad 1 is connected to a wide trace,. ground plane...
