E Ticket To Ride

EDA, Ethics, and Energetic Engineering

All aboard! The train is leaving the station. This week we’re taking the EE express from EDA station through some twisty turns in the mountainous region of ethics in our fair semiconductor industry, and then it’s on over the hill to some awesome energetic engineering. We’re checking out the EDA goodness that is CDNLive including the seriously Sci-Fi movie in one of this year’s keynotes. On our next stop, we’re looking into the role that ethics plays (and should play) in the semiconductor industry with Xerxes Wania (CEO – Sidense), and we’re also grooving to a whole new way to do The Harlem Shake – engineering style.

Also this week, I’m giving away a Arduino Nano Board courtesy of Newark element14. Check out this week’s broadcast to find out how to win.

Advancements in Motor Efficiency Enables More Sustainable Manufacturing
Climate change is encouraging the acceleration of sustainable and renewable manufacturing processes and practices and one way we can encourage sustainability in manufacturing is with the use of variable speed drive motor control. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Maurizio Gavardoni and Naveen Dhull from Analog Devices about the wide ranging benefits of variable speed motors, the role that current feedback plays in variable speed motor control, and how precision measurement solutions for current feedback can lead to higher motor efficiency, energy saving and enhanced sustainability.
