It is very important to have a solid architecture early in the design process for successful electronic product development and deployment. Architecture is by nature a multi-dimension problem. Several...
Recently, Senior Design Engineer Steve Miller was working on an FPGA design project that required taking multiple video inputs and processing them in real-time through an FPGA. Some of the necessary c...
Creating a great schematic is more than just producing a technically correct netlist. Ideally, your schematic should be organized in a way that’s easy for others to review and understand. Even someo...
By now many people have heard of Angry Moose, the geeky game that draws crowds of engineers and fans wherever it goes. It’s a real-life version of a popular iOS game, but with a Canadian twist. The ...
In our last post, we discussed the Initial Design Engagement (IDE), the first phase of electronic product development at Nuvation Engineering. During this phase of a client project, we gather requirem...
In part 1 Principal Design Engineer Mark Bingeman shared some helpful tips for capturing a great picture of your electronic product design. Here is how you can improve the quality of your photo even f...
Previously, we wrote about DiscoFish’s autonomous driving capabilities. Once autonomous driving was up and running we decided to also implement drive-by-wire, so that a person could also drive the F...
Once you’ve completed a circuit board or product design, you will often want to take pictures of it. Sometimes it’s for marketing material or documentation purposes, and other times you’re proud...
Highly Accelerated Stress Screening, also known as HASS testing, is a method for testing the reliability of a product by exposing it to stresses beyond what it would encounter in normal use. The testi...
Here’s the conclusion of our Power Supply Design Basics series! First we introduced the concept of the Power Factor, and then we discussed Power Factor Correction (PFC) and how to implement passive ...
