My Substrate or Yours?

by Amelia Dalton

Fish Fry is getting down to bare metal. We’re talking the who, what, where, and how of multi-substrate technology and checking out why the tools of today may not be up to snuff for tomorrow’s 3D IC packaging. Also this week, we look at the challenges of 100G designs and investigate why Portland, Oregon was ranked the second nerdiest city in the United States.

I’ve got a Microchip TCHIP003 chipKIT™ Starter Pak – courtesy of Mouser and Microchip Technology to give away this week. You can enter to win one by posting a comment on this week’s Fish Fry page.

AVX Supercapacitors: PrizmaCap

Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and AVX

If your application requires a supercapacitor, there are a lot of options. You need the right form factor, temperature range, weight, and capacitance, of course. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Eric DeRose of AVX about choosing the right supercapacitor and about PrizmaCap - a new supercapacitor with low height, high temperature, and lightweight.
