I'm interested in practical differences and recommendations between professional OrCAD & Electronics Workbench EDA suites for electronics schematic capture, SPICE simulation, PCB layout, and PCB autorouting tool sets. Looking for cost, performance, ease of use, product support, and overall...

I think you've done a good job of producing a uniform method of intuitive part numbering. I wonder how your system will interface or compete with formats of off-the-shelf schematic-capture products.
I have a finished goods inventory of 700 automobile speaker/amplifier systems that were damaged in an overturned common carrier shipping trailer. I think it reasonable that most of the units can be recovered for salvage purposes. I propose to implement appropriate functional testing of a small...
Michael,
You may not have gone down deep enough with your ACVM on the output. When you feed a signal, say 1kHz at 1 volt RMS, into the shorted pos & neg inputs, the output will be very low, say around millivolts or less. A finely tuned CMR could be tens microvolts. At this point you'll be...
I am seeking reliability White Papers or other relevant info on MTBF calculations or "seat-of-the-pants" assessment of long term degradation of microprocessors used in common PC servers after sustained ambient overtemperature conditions.
Background: An operating server room's HVAC...
