| This reference design provides a compact system design capable of supporting motor acceleration and deceleration up to ±200 kRPM/s, which is a key requirement in many respirator applications. The design supports a number of offboard C2000 controllers including the TMS320F28027F, enabling a low-cost, sensor-less field oriented control (FOC). In addition, the design supports a wide input voltage range (6-28 V) capable of supporting both regulated line and battery power. To drive the air blower and valves, this design uses the DRV8323RS smart gate driver and DRV8847 motor driver, respectively. |

| The modern alchemist’s quest for longer battery life is more challenging than ever. Good battery design for the e-mobility industry is akin to concocting a powerful potion, with the right balance of chemicals to handle different applications and challenging environments. The battery also needs to pack a punch to provide extra mileage on the road. Hwee Yng Automotive and Energy Expert from Keysight Technologies explains. |

| Energy storage is a key enabler for the ongoing electrification of carbon-intensive sectors, namely the automotive and energy industries. Developments in energy storage are driven by the increased uptake of EVs and the balancing of renewable electricity grids to provide power during low solar and wind periods. IDTechEx have developed a portfolio of energy storage research to help clients make strategic business decisions and capitalise from these innovations, which can be found from www.IDTechEx.com/Research/ES. |

| The advancement of military technology in the past 20 years has reshaped the battlefield. From unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for aerial surveillance and air strikes to unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) for remote reconnaissance, modern warfare is seemingly shifting from primarily ‘boots on the ground’ operations to battlefields being dominated remotely. Here, Martin Frederiksen, Managing Director of land defence embedded system specialist Recab UK, explains the role embedded computing is playing in the next generation of land military technology. |

| Modern vehicles offer a dazzling array of driver safety, comfort, and infotainment features, many of which rely on wireless connectivity. Pre-certified wireless modules that include an antenna are extremely popular, but they don’t offer a viable option for some applications. Mark Patrick of Mouser Electronics explains further. |
