Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) announced a state-of-the-art synthesizer consisting of a phase-locked loop (PLL) with fully integrated voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) as well as integrated low dropout regulators (LDO) and integrated tracking filter technology.

Continuing to redefine the traditional single function gain block, Anokiwave is releasing two new ICs in a family of multi-function microwave and mmWave silicon ICs, offering transmit/receive functionality with active gain and phase control.

Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) introduced a 12-bit RF analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that delivers industry-leading speed and bandwidth. The new AD9213 features higher parametric performance: greater Nyquist bandwidth and RF sampling capabilities at higher analog input frequencies than conventional RF ADCs, allowing for the digitization of RF signals up to 7 GHz.

Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) introduced a highly integrated, active antenna beamforming chip that allows designers to quickly replace bulky, mechanically-steered antenna platforms with a compact, solid-state solution for phased array radar and communications systems.

Tektronix, Inc. and IEMN, a major French research laboratory, demonstrated a single carrier wireless link traveling at a 100 Gb/s data rate. This demonstration uses advanced data coding, THz photonics and wideband and linear devices to enable ultra fast wireless connections in the 252 - 325 GHz band per the recently published IEEE 802.15.3d standard.

Setting a world record, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) successfully demonstrated 100 Gbps wireless transmission using orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing. NTT is developing the technology to enable terabit-class wireless transmission, to support the demand for wireless communications expected in the 2030s.
