In the early 1980s, when computer-aided engineering (CAE), the precursor to modern electronic design automation (EDA), was just taking shape, my professional trajectory shifted in a way that would prove foundational. I joined Teradyne, the Boston-based leader in automated test equipment (ATE), and I encountered for the first… Read More
Batteries, especially for electric vehicles, are very much in the news these days. This technology is vital for many aspects of our modern lives, but people often worry about things like range limitations and the possibility of overheating. The industry is responding with electronic solutions for improving battery operation.… Read More
