Title: Highly Reliable Electronic Components Drive Medical Innovation.
Source: Medical Design Briefs Magazine. 6/1/2026, p18-21. 4p.
Subjects: Low Temperature Cofired Ceramic technology, Passive components, Real-time computing, Interference suppression, Artificial implants, Electronic equipment, Medical technology, Wearable technology
Abstract: The article focuses on the critical role of highly reliable passive electronic components in advancing medical technologies such as wireless wearables, implantables, and real-time monitoring devices. It highlights the importance of components like high-Q capacitors, inductors, chip antennas, and EMI filters, which must maintain stability and performance under demanding conditions, including strong magnetic fields in MRI systems. Johanson Technology’s use of low-loss materials and integrated passive components (IPCs) manufactured with low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) technology exemplifies efforts to miniaturize and enhance reliability while supporting diverse wireless protocols for medical telemetry and connectivity. The article also addresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) mitigation strategies essential for device safety and regulatory compliance in complex healthcare environments.
