Managing complexity: it's not as tangible as a cable, connector, electrical center, or electronic module, but it is one of the critical services electrical/electronic (E/E) architecture suppliers like Delphi provides alongside these intricate components and systems. Without it, serious problems can result in terms of design, quality and delivery. With it, the right parts are manufactured and delivered for the right applications every time -- on time and with the highest level of quality.
I would like to thank all our readers and advertisers for your support during the launch of Electronics Advocate this year. Here's a list of our top fifteen stories of 2009 (from Aug. to Dec.). Wishing you all a happy holiday season and prosperous New Year!
From eco-friendly computers and displays to smart-grid and renewable energy devices, this new "green" industry may deliver tremendous growth opportunities for the electronics industry.
TI unveils “Thank an Engineer” video
Texas Instruments has launched its latest “Thank an Engineer” video, World Without Streaming Video, at www.ti.com/thanks.
Here is TI’s message:
Dear engineers,
Thank you. No matter what your engineering specialty: chemical, civil, computer, electrical, industrial, mechanical, etc. (there are so many), you are all unsung heroes. From little things like the alarm clocks that wake us up, to the big things like the roads we drive everyday and the cell phones that keep us connected, they are all in existence today because of you.
What would our lives be like without these inventions? Visit www.ti.com/thanks to view videos showing what we think the world would be like without devices such as remote controls, streaming video and high speed Internet, to name a few.
Appreciatively,
Texas Instruments
