Industrial-grade gigabit Ethernet switches with ultra-robust performance

Brighton, UK, 1st May 2014 – Amplicon has introduced the new EDS-G500E series to its ever expanding portfolio of Industrial Ethernet switches. The EDS-G500E series is designed for use in large-scale networks to converge field applications in extreme industrial environments. In addition to Level 4 EMS protection, severe shock/vibration resistance, and a new thermal fin design that can reduce switch temperatures (5°C or more), the EDS E series has many user-centric features to significantly improve network manageability.

The EDS-G500E series offers various copper and fibre slot combinations with up to 16 gigabit Ethernet ports to quickly build a full-gigabit network backbone or add gigabit speed to existing networks. Other key benefits of the EDS-G500E series include an USB interface for fast and easy auto-configuration/backup/restore and reduced energy consumption of up to 30% with IEEE 802.3az.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
