Testing Software

Siemens Digital Industries Software, Plano, TX, released Simcenter™ Testlab™ software that features model-based system testing that enables system validation based on a combined physical and virtual test. Component-based transfer path analysis predicts full-system noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) earlier in the development cycle by combining component models and measurements. For NVH in vehicle electrification, the software addresses new noise standards for an Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System.

Socket

The GTP-QFN-1001 socket from Ironwood Electronics, Eagan, MN, is designed for 5.9 × 5.9-mm package size and operates at bandwidths up to 60+ GHz with less than 1 dB of insertion loss. The contact resistance is typically 20 milliohms per pin. The socket is mounted on the target PCB with no soldering and uses a very small space, allowing capacitors/resistors to be placed nearby. The socket is constructed with a low-inductance elastomer contactor with a protective layer that shields the elastomer from contamination and solder migration.
