TechOnline | Solution for USB 2.0 Short Circuit Stress Test with Pericom's PI3USB10LP-A/102
Pericom's PI3USB10LP-A and PI3USB102 USB switches are small package, low I/O capacitance, and low R-on single differential channel 2:1 multiplexer/demultiplexer USB 2.0 solutions. These traits are ideal for Universal Serial Bus (USB) applications, and both products demonstrate excellent signal
TechOnline | Integrating 3D Mechanical Design and Analysis with Physical Testing
In the traditional design process of parts and assemblies, mechanical engineers produce models, analyze their behaviors under operating conditions, and pass physical prototypes "over the wall" for test engineers to evaluate in a pass/fail mode. Any problems that come to light are "thrown back" for
IBM Techdocs Flash: Consolidated Service Test and the New IBM RSU Maintenance Philosophy
IBM is introducing an additional service testing environment called Consolidated Service Test (CST). The new testing is a result of IBM’s ongoing commitment to quality. The software maintenance strategy for the OS/390 and z/OS platforms will now reflect service that has been through CST testing. As
IBM Techdocs Technote: Use of WLMPAV Specification for 2105 Base and Alias Devices
The IBM 2105 Enterprise Storage Server supports, as an optional feature, Parallel Access Volumes. Parallel Access Volumes or PAVs are alias devices associated with a base 3380 or 3390 logical device that allow OS/390 to start multiple I/Os concurrently against the same volume. OS/390 V1R3 and
