Come visit us at our booth at The Military & Aerospace Electronics Forum and Avionics USA Shows in San Diego, June 3 & 4 2010.

The Military & Aerospace Electronics Forum is one of the industry's premier military conferences and exhibitions. Brought to you by Military and Aerospace Electronics Magazine, the Military & Aerospace Electronics Forum targets the challenges military designers face and the solutions industry provide. This in-depth technical conference and expo not only will highlight the technological challenges facing the U.S. military services, but also will present solutions from the most influential systems integrators and subsystems contractors in the industry. With expert government and industry presentations, the Military & Aerospace Electronics Forum focuses on the most important procurement and technological issues such as import/export controls, lead-free compliance, software modernization, and thermal and power management.

Avionics USA is modeled after the highly successful Avionics Exhibition and Conference, the leading event in the world for commercial and defense avionics held annually in Amsterdam every March. Avionics USA will be co-located with the Military and Aerospace Electronics Forum, offering two separate conferences and a shared exhibit floor. This shared environment will allow the senior level attendees to walk the entire show floor and mingle with the executives attending each event.

DNB develops RS105 Test Capability

This difficult and challenging MIL-STD 461 susceptibility test generates a peak field strength of 50,000 V/m.

It’s used to verify the ability of an EUT enclosure to withstand a transient electromagnetic field. This test is applicable to equipment and subsystem enclosures when the equipment or subsystem is located externally to a hardened (shielded) platform or facility.

It is also applicable for equipment intended solely for use on non-metallic platforms.

The RS105 requirement is also applicable to Army aircraft for safety critical equipment and subsystems located in an external installation
