Figure 1 The harmonic mixer converts the DUT mm-wave (RF) to a predefined IF frequency. Harmonic Mixer Primer To overcome frequency limitations in available instrumentation, frequency extension accessories based on harmonic mixer technology are used to down convert the mm-wave spectrum into the signal analyzer's bandwidth for analysis. In...

Modern radars often require the use of wideband waveforms to perform high resolution target imaging. In microwave systems, the bandwidth can be on the order of 1.5 GHz, while in UHF systems that typically operate between 200 and 500 MHz, the waveform bandwidth might exceed 200 MHz. A major...

In many electronic assemblies today, thermal mismatch between the printed circuit board (PCB) and the ceramic components causes micro cracks in the solder joints. Several factors contribute to these cracks, notably component size, temperature variation, PCB material and solder material. A common result of these cracks is intermittent failures...

Werlatone provides Non-Coherent RF Combiner designs with proven heat dissipation techniques for broadband Non-Coherent Combining applications, such as combining two or more signals of differing power, frequency and/or phase onto a single output. Model D9048 provides a four-way combining solution capable of handling 500 W CW output power while...

TowerJazz recently announced the company's third-generation 0.18 μm SiGe technology, SBC18H3, offering transistors with 240 GHz Ft and 260 GHz Fmax in a cost-effective and analog-friendly 0.18 μm node. The technology is built on the same mature integration platform used for the company's prior two SiGe processes, which are...

Paciwave has developed a new family of ultra low loss PIN diode RF switches for military and instrumentation applications that feature high switching speed, high isolation and excellent VSWR. The model PSW10-0119-31-11 is a SP10T switch that covers the RF band from 1.5 to 18.5 GHz, is TTL controlled...

Nano Materials International has introduced aluminum diamond metal matrix composites (MMC) for use as heat spreaders that can reduce GaN junction temperatures by up to 25 percent, has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) close to that of SiC and metallization well suited for die attach. They also have...
