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 ...

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 ...

In the 1980s radio frequency (RF) engineers developed microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuits that revolutionized the reliability and controllability of RF systems, while significantly ...

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 ...

This circuit in Figure 1 produces the amplitude curve illustrated in Figure 2. 2. Wideband Response for Circuit of Figure 1. The voltage gain of the op amp stage itself is 20, but this is cut in half ...

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.

Wireless is everywhere these days. What new electronic product doesn’t have a wireless or a radio-frequency (RF) component today? Chances are you could be designing something that incorporates an RF ...

Engineers designing RF systems at millimeter wave frequencies face exponentially increasing challenges as losses compound, parasitics dominate, and system integration becomes critical.
