We have received permission to publish the feature article from the only domestic magazine specializing in implementation technology, "Electronics Implementation Technology," Volume 39, Issue 7. Please take a look. Overview BGA components are used in all types of electronic devices, from consumer products to industrial equipment, and more recently, automotive devices. However, a reliable method for inspecting printed circuit boards with BGA components has not been established. Every inspection method has its advantages and disadvantages, and it is not possible to conduct a complete test using only one inspection method. As a result, inspecting BGA-mounted boards has become a challenge for many companies. This time, as one solution to this issue, we will introduce the latest technological trends in hybrid testing that combines flying probe testers and JTAG boundary scan. 1. Introduction 2. Inspection and Challenges of BGA-Mounted Boards 3. Possibilities of Electrical Testing 4. In-Circuit Testing 5. JTAG Boundary Scan Testing 6. Hybrid Testing 7. Conclusion Andor System Support Co., Ltd. / Masazumi Taniguchi Takiya Co., Ltd. / Kohei Yanagida

Takaya Corporation will conduct a free monitoring campaign for the UHF band shelf antenna system. The middleware includes a dashboard function as a sample application, allowing you to use it immediately as a Proof of Concept (PoC). For more details and application methods, please check the related materials and press release page below. If you are interested in a continuous monitoring system using RFID, please feel free to contact us during this opportunity. *Campaign period: July 3, 2023 - End of September 2023.

Takaya Corporation will begin selling the UHF version of the HF shelf antenna, the "UHF Band RFID Reader/Writer & Shelf Antenna," which has a cumulative sales record of over 2,000 units. This is a specific low-power radio station type that does not require a license application (output of 250mW or less). Recently, the adoption of UHF tags, which offer cost advantages for applications with many items to manage, has been increasing, leading to a growing demand for UHF shelf antennas. By placing items with RF tags on the shelf antenna, it can be utilized for solutions such as location management, inventory tracking, and recording the history of checkouts and returns. * UHF Band RFID: Frequency 920MHz, International Standard ISO/IEC18000-63, compliant with GS1 EPCglobal GEN2. For more details, please see the press release at the link below. We will also conduct a monitor recruitment campaign (free of charge).

The exhibition of Taiji Yamabe at the Kairaku Otsuka Museum focuses on the captivating motifs and materials of "nature" and "shine" in art. It will showcase the "Flower" series from the late 1980s, which served as the starting point for Yamabe's work, as well as the "GOLD PAINTING" series from the early 2000s. Both series garnered significant attention in the art scene at the time and continue to exude fresh energy. The "flower," as a symbol of the moment, intersects with "GOLD," a symbol of eternity, creating a blend of the ordinary and the extraordinary. The visual and sensory experiences that intersect in these two different times quietly present the imagery of the works and deepen our understanding of the existence and perception of objects. This summer, I hope to share a rich time of appreciation of Yamabe's works with many people. Exhibition Period: July 15, 2023 (Saturday) – September 10, 2023 (Sunday) Opening Hours: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (Admission until 4:30 PM) Closed: Mondays (the following day if a holiday) Admission Fee: General 800 (700) yen, High School Students 500 (400) yen, Elementary and Junior High School Students 300 (250) yen *The prices in parentheses are group discount rates for 20 or more people.
