08.31.23 -- Waves Beyond Walls: What To Expect From 2023 European Microwave Week

European Microwave Week offers access to the latest products, research, and initiatives in the microwave sector, along with the chance for face-to-face interaction with leaders shaping the future of microwave technology.

With many options for configurations and applications, capacitors support a variety of functions in RF and microwave circuits. Here are some examples of key roles they play in these applications.

GaN HEMT (high-electron-mobility transistor) and LDMOS MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) are voltage-controlled field-effect transistors requiring specific bias sequencing to ensure safe operation.

This article aims to educate readers on how switch matrices can be used to extend the port count of VNAs to meet the testing demands of the latest wireless standards and sensing technologies.

EMI compliance is a rising concern in advanced power electronics due to higher switching speeds. Correlated time-frequency measurements aid early development in optimizing gate driving and reducing electromagnetic emissions.

Devices are evolving rapidly and so have a very short product life cycle that limits the available time for design and analysis. Given such short time frames, how do we improve prediction capabilities and make better design decisions?

Not all antennas are created equal, and when it comes to frequency different antenna styles perform better at some frequencies and not at others. This guide will discuss special considerations that are sometimes required in antenna design typically at very high and very low frequencies.

Understanding the meaning of S-parameters, how they are measured, and their limitations can lead to more meaningful simulations of RF- and microwave-frequency inductors, chokes, wideband RF transformers, and high-speed common mode chokes.

As industries continue to demand uninterrupted communication and seamless connectivity, wideband RF signal processing systems continue to grow in importance.

This resource will help you avoid the most common mistakes and outlines the important things to consider to successfully develop or refine an automotive EMC chamber and test design.

John Hendricks of Rogers Corporation offers up an overview of low-mid band base station antennas for 5G and the materials that they use.

We have highly reliable coaxial switches with high frequency for any application.

Our 2.92 mm switches come in SPDT, multi-position, transfer (DPDT), and terminated models, offering excellent RF performance in return loss (VSWR), insertion loss, and isolation.

Every wire that enters or leaves your system is an antenna. That wire can radiate noise and it can also receive noise, as well as carry it into your electronic system. Antennas work both ways; they can receive and transmit, often at the same time. EMI filters stop the noise.
