and Test Challenges for High Speed D/A Converters
On-line Seminar: Tuesday, January 13, 1:00 PM EST 
High speed D/A converters are becoming increasingly mainstream in all types of consumer, industrial, instrumentation, and
communication applications. However, achieving required noise performance and dynamic range at high data rates presents a unique set
of system design challenges. This NetSeminar will address the issues faced in designing with high speed D/A converters and present
techniques for insuring success. We will explore application issues that can limit performance, address test equipment
characteristics that create test and measurement challenges for D/As, and discover how to effectively interface to the DAC output to
maximize the high speed D/A's performance capabilities. To register for this event go to

* Acing Psychometric Tests
< <http://www.theengineerjobs.co.uk/psychometric.asp> http://www.theengineerjobs.co.uk/psychometric.asp>
I found this free test difficult, but found that the results reminded me of who I really am.  An employer has never asked me to do
one of these tests, but it can help you know yourself better and improve how you come across in an interview.
