Originally, operational amplifiers (op amps) were not thought of as candidates for RF design, but the advent of newer, faster devices has now made them an attractive option for some applications. The ...

My first job on leaving college was maintaining military radios. I had covered RF theory, but found that the practice was significantly different. The company’s detailed design work was performed at a ...

The many technical factors that must be assessed in 5G antenna design, including their interactions. Further physical/environmental considerations for both the antenna and the entire system. In the ...

Designing highly integrated components for radio frequency applications poses special challenges for system engineers, designers and the commissioning engineers. The boundary between chip, package and ...

The IoT has increased the demand for good radio frequency (RF) design practices from the mains, to wall outlet power, all the way to the antenna. With several IoT standards employed today, constraint ...

Next-generation RF to millimeter-wave silicon MMIC and module product development software Cadence is excited to announce the launch of its latest RF design and analysis platform, Virtuoso Studio RF.

Radio-frequency (RF) switches are fundamental components in high-frequency communication systems, serving to route signals between transmit and receive paths, select frequency bands and enable ...

During this 1-hour webcast, you will learn about the RF transmit/receive signal chain*. We will review the role of network analysis in characterizing the key components of these systems, covering ...
