Cover Story
- Stress out; strain gauges in
The careful selection and application of strain gauges can ensure good results from this difficult measurement.
Design Features
- Evolving to DDR3 technology
The move from DDR2 to DDR3 requires new design techniques to improve signal integrity and gain the maximum benefit from the latest memory-interface technology. - Leakage power analysis attack on cryptographic device realized in CMOS 90-nanometer technology
Leakage current may be the gate no one thought to lock that allows cracking of hardened systems.
