Conductive Textiles-What are their uses?
Conductive Textiles-What are their uses? Conductive Textiles are often used in "technical applications". VTT markets conductive textiles, meaning an electrical current can pass through them. That current can be a "message", "data", or part of a circuit. Metals are great electrical conductors. The most conductive metal is Silver, followed by Copper and Gold. Gold is rarely used in conductive textiles due to its cost. VTT's conductive textiles are primarily plated or coated with Silver, Copper, Nickel, and...

Develop and Test your Product with the Best!
Develop and Test your Product with the Best! V Technical Textiles, Inc. has been involved in electronic product development and testing for years! Initially, VTT was known for providing excellent RF shielding materials used in electronic devices. Shielding materials block access of RF interference to electronic devices, allowing them to perform smoothly! Additionally, they prevent the emission of RF interference from electronic devices. VTT's Shielding materials are conductive metalized textiles, used in the automotive, aerospace, medical, and...

VTT Shielded Enclosures-Testing Gamechangers!
VTT Shielded Enclosures-Testing Gamechangers! RF Shielded Chambers have been around for a long time! The "standard" RF Shielded Chamber was a brick-and-mortar structure with solid metal walls, ceilings, and floors. It was heavy, immobile, extremely expensive to construct, and required the Device Under Testing (DUT) to come to the chamber for testing. For more than two decades, William Hoge and VTT have been designing and manufacturing a radically different style of RF Shielded Enclosures than the "old standard". His use...

RF Shielding-Block Unwanted Access!
RF Shielding-Block Unwanted Access! Our wireless devices store our private information. We count on them to keep that information secure from unwanted access. We are able to access our bank and credit card information and use it daily. Businesses use their computers to store confidential information about their customers and trade secrets. Sadly, there are hackers out there who would like to use this information in criminal ways! It seems like we hear about data breaches daily or weekly on...

Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Practical!
Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Practical! No one likes to do the same job twice! It's not efficient because it is a true waste of time. Making sure the job's done right the first time is the best way to proceed. This is especially true in electronic components. Electric components are made up of multiple electronic devices, working together smoothly. Everyone knows that every electronic device has to pass EMC compliance testing before it can go to market. EMC is achieved when all...

Standards are necessary for EMC!
Standards are necessary for EMC! Electronic devices working in a shared electronic environment must be able to perform optimally in that environment. In order for this to happen, the shared environment must meet certain "standards". Imagine expecting a human being able to live in an environment without oxygen. It's NOT going to happen! Similarly, electronic devices require an environment with limited range of RFI frequency emissions. RFI above a certain "standard level" will hinder a device's performance. A "standard limit"...

Shielding RF/EMI allows Electronic Teamwork!
Shielding RF/EMI allows Electronic Teamwork! Electronic components consist of several electronic devices working together toward a common result. All electronic devices create electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic fields can be the source of "noise" that can affect the function of another nearby device or devices in the component. Noise produces a "toxic effect" on the shared electronic environment of the component, making it function below its capability. In order for the devices to be "compatible" with each other, there must be standards...
