Technology Standards Groups & Industry Associations

 The Electronic Industries Association (EIA) is a trade association that was founded
in 1924 in the United States. Its primary aim is to promote the interests of the
electronic components and systems industry, including manufacturers, suppliers,
and distributors of electronic components, as well as manufacturers of electronic
equipment and systems.
The EIA was formed as a response to the growing demand for electronic components
and equipment, and to provide a platform for companies in the industry to collaborate
and share information. Over the years, the EIA has played a significant role in
shaping the electronic industry, by developing standards for electronic products
and systems, promoting the industry through research and advocacy, and fostering
innovation and growth.
One of the key contributions of the EIA has been the development of industry
standards, which have helped to ensure the compatibility and interoperability of
electronic products and systems. The EIA's standards activities have covered a wide
range of topics, including interfaces, dimensions, performance, and safety. The
EIA has also been instrumental in the development of global standards for the electronics
industry, through its participation in international standards organizations such
as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO).
In addition to standards development, the EIA has also been involved in advocacy
and research activities aimed at promoting the interests of the electronics industry.
For example, the EIA has conducted research on various aspects of the industry,
including market trends, technology trends, and economic impacts. The EIA has also
been a strong advocate for policies and regulations that support the growth and
competitiveness of the industry, such as promoting fair trade practices and protecting
intellectual property rights.
The EIA has undergone several changes over the years, including mergers and acquisitions,
but its commitment to promoting the interests of the electronics industry has remained
strong. Today, the EIA is a global organization with members from around the world,
and it continues to play a vital role in shaping the future of the electronics industry.

AI Technical Trustability Update
While working on an update to my
RF Cafe Espresso Engineering Workbook project to add a couple calculators about
FM sidebands (available soon). The good news is that AI provided excellent VBA code
to generate a set of Bessel function
plots. The bad news is when I asked for a
table
showing at which modulation indices sidebands 0 (carrier) through 5 vanish,
none of the agents got it right. Some were really bad. The AI agents typically explain
their reason and method correctly, then go on to produces bad results. Even after
pointing out errors, subsequent results are still wrong. I do a lot of AI work
and see this often, even with subscribing to professional versions. I ultimately
generated the table myself. There is going to be a lot of inaccurate information
out there based on unverified AI queries, so beware.
