Multi-Year, Multi-Site Agreement Provides Tools Designed to Boost Company's Productivity, Production Yields

Source Code Licensing Agreement Expands EM Product Line, Provides Designers Time-Saving Technology

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced an updated version of its PCI Express electrical performance validation and compliance software.

Unlike other numerical simulation areas like stress or thermal analysis, high frequency computational electromagnetics is an evolving science. Experts still argue about the fastest and most elegant approaches to solving problems and no single method has emerged as an outright winner. To make headway, development teams have to invest...

Over the last several years, III-V heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT) have become an increasingly important technology for a variety of rapidly growing markets. GaAs-based HBTs now play a major role in wireless communications. Key applications include power amplifiers for handset phones, wireless LAN and numerous other high speed analog...

There are a number of communications, radar and imaging applications spanning Ka-band through W-band (26 to 110 GHz) that require transmitter output powers in the range of a few watts to a few tens of watts. Vacuum-tube sources and amplifiers have long been available that can produce output power...

For specific applications, there is a need for materials or composite structures which can reflect and/or absorb the electromagnetic (EM) energy incident upon them in a desired or controllable fashion. Such reflective EM absorbing/reflecting materials 1-3 are useful in designing smart radar cross-section (smart RCS) surfaces and radio frequency...

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in studying microstrip lines with various periodic structures that prohibit wave propagation in certain frequency bands, including photonic bandgap (PBG) and DGS. 1-10 Each periodic structure has its own properties and advantages. DGS, which is realized by etching only a few areas...
