With operating frequencies exceeding 300MHz, National’s line of monolithic and hybrid current feedback operational amplifiers have become an attractive option for the RF (and IF) design engineer.

To meet emerging 5G and IoT application requirements, RF and digital engineers must able to address system performance changes and partition designs between RF/analog and digital components. As ...

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 ...

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 ...

Abstract: This tutorial presents an overview of RF and mm-wave power-amplifier (PA) designs in silicon, focusing on the design fundamentals. First, the tutorial introduces PA performance metrics and ...

If you’re planning on working satellites or doing any sort of RF work where the signal lives down in the dirt, you’re going to need a low-noise amplifier. That’s typically not a problem, as the market ...

• Smart cascade analyzer: Dynamically computes cascaded gain, noise figure, third-order intercept point (IP3) and sensitivity, with real-time updates that continuously optimize datalink performance. • ...

Growing demands in wideband radio and wireless communication deployments are imposing the necessity of a proper radio architecture capable of providing solid performance, more flexibility, in addition ...

Mentor Graphics and TSMC have released a 65nm RF design kit that combines TSMC's 65-nm mixed-signal and RF process technology with Mentor’s new ICStudio custom chip design platform. Mentor Graphics ...

Abstract: Mixers are essential building blocks of every RF transceiver, often compromising the noise and linearity performance of the entire receive or transmit chain. Specifically, the switching ...
