We have all seen Printed Circuit Board (PCB) antennas: those squiggly bits of traces on PCBs connected often to a Bluetooth, WiFi or other wireless communication chip. On modules like for the ESP82… ...

PXI-Express is a modular instrumentation platform implemented for automated test and measurement systems. PXI-Express Gen 2 integrates PCI-Express Gen 2 signaling into its PHY link. A PXI-Express Gen ...

Test points If your design gets ICT (in-circuit testing), you will have test-points for the fixture. You will probably try to arrange these to minimize any signal integrity issues. But you can also ...
