Building an electric vehicle from the ground up: Design Choices

(EDN Asia, 1 Feb 2012)
Editor's note: In part 1 of this two-part series, we look at the core technology and design choices behind this electric vehicle. In part 2, we will discuss some mechanical and structural challenges ....
 

Spice simplifies DRL analysis in the ECG front

(EDN Asia, 1 Feb 2012)
ECG (electrocardiography) is the science of converting the ionic depolarization of the heart to a measurable electrical signal for analysis. One of the most common challenges in the design of analog electronics ....
 

Prototypes come of age

(EDN Asia, 1 Feb 2012)
Over the past few years, interest in prototyping electronic designs has grown. The rising size and complexity of systems and the limitations of using a single-purpose model—the hardware-design model—have ....
 

Power spikes isolation to avoid corruption within sensitive ICs

(EDN Asia, 1 Feb 2012)
Introduction of spikes in systems during insertion of power supply jacks is observed in a majority of designs. These spikes are mainly caused by either a very high frequency de-bounce on the power supply ....
 

Engineer shares how to build an electric vehicle from the ground up: Build effort

(EDN Asia, 1 Feb 2012)
First, the Fiero donor car was stripped of its front body parts. The entire front suspension and steering gear came out as a complete assembly. Thus, began the build effort. The coil springs were replaced ....
 

Product design constraints and optimization

(EDN Asia, 1 Jan 2012)
Let us begin by understanding the context of a ‘constraint’. Given a freehand, realizing an embedded product design is academic. The whole relevance of product design comes from being pertinent to the ....
 

PC board materials and processing as hot technology

(EDN Asia, 1 Jan 2012)
Engineers' traditional rational for printed circuit boards (PCBs) was to save cost over hand-soldered wiring. The earliest PCBs were made from paper saturated with phenolic resin. This is now known as ....
 

MCUs: High-end devices flourish

(EDN Asia, 1 Jan 2012)
It is difficult not to regard the recent history of microcontrollers (MCUs) as BC and AC—before and after Cortex! It is less than seven years since the ARM technology turned its focus directly on the ....
 

Audio performance advances in portables

(EDN Asia, 1 Jan 2012)
One of the consequences of the ongoing convergence of entertainment and computing products is increasing consumer expectations of audio and video performance on devices like smartphones and tablets. To ....
 

Automotive electronics: What's hot in 2012

(EDN Asia, 1 Jan 2012)
In automotive electronics, 2012 looks to be a year of consolidation as technologies introduced previously become more widespread across model lines. In particular, voice recognition, with different features ....
