Dynamos are pretty much outdated when it comes to smog tests but it is possible that the testing facility you are assigned still uses that method. In such cases, low tire pressure can affect your car’s fuel efficiency and indirectly cause the engine to work hard leading to a rise in the...
Much of this testing requires knowledge of operating and reading finely tuned tools, so it may be appropriate to hire a testing facility or power system designer to perform tests. Using the correct troubleshooting techniques for each instrument is crucial. After assembling all of the recorded data...
Automated or manual multi-failure re-measurement, allowing you to determine if a failure is intermittent or reoccurring. Report multiple measurements in multiple formats in the same user configurable report. With hardware, Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers make EMI debug much easier. Some of t...
Some states require emissions testing, also known as smog checks, to measure pollutants in a car’s exhaust. An emissions test looks at two aspects of your car: How well your systems that affect emissions — such as transmission and fuel system — are operating. How much of certain pollutant...

Testing Your Shocks: How Much Bounce is Too Much? The tires of your car are the only points of contact between your vehicle and the road. Shocks ensure that your tires remain touching the pavement, so you’ll want to make sure they’re in good repair. Fortunately, testing your shocks ...
A telecom business that is just waiting for suppliers such as utilities or router makers to go green is not doing enough to shape its own decarbonization destiny. As much as 60 percent of a telecom company’s total emissions come from its upstream value chain, including manufacturers of smart...
An LCD display can affect a product’s radiated emissions performance as much as any other part. This is primarily because not all LCDs are made the same way. Even if they look the same, one LCD may emit much more noise than one from another manufacturer due to differences in design. ...
Is AI a threat to humanity? It depends on how people in control of AI decide to use the technology. If it falls into the wrong hands, AI could be used to expose people’s personal information, spread misinformation and perpetuate social inequalities, among other malicious use cases. ...
Port injection is used at lower engine speeds because it has a more stable mixture of air and fuel. Direct injection is used at higher speeds to provide more power and less chance of knocking, which is when the air is compressed too much and the fuel spontaneously ignites. Diesel engines ...
