Metrigraphics announced it has achieved large-scale production of micron-scale flexible circuits six or more layers high, with traces (circuit lines) as narrow as three microns (11.81 x 10-5 inches). The circuits are so flexible they can be wrapped around objects with diameters as small as a pencil. Products include single-layer flex, multi-layer flex, coils, sensor components, and electrodes (neuro-stimulation).

Pasternack Enterprises Inc., an industry leading manufacturer and supplier of RF, microwave and millimeter wave products, announces their expanded line of 75 Ohm F attenuators. This new line of F-type attenuators is perfect for broadcast, HDTV and satcom applications in the L and S microwave bands up to 3 GHz. Pasternack’s new F attenuators are available in 1 to 10 dB values in 1 dB steps.
PMI Model No. PE2-34-2G18G-3R5-15-SFF-VVG-DD is a voltage variable gain amplifier with integrated diode detector operating over the frequency range of 2.0 to 18.0 GHz. This amplifier is supplied in our standard PE2 housing that can be used as SMA connectorized or as a surface mount component. It is optimized for 5.5 to 18.0 GHz. 
PMI Model No. PLO-9G-CD-1 is a phase locked oscillator with an output frequency of 9.0 GHz. This model provides minimum output power of +21 dB with all spurs held to -60 dBc and harmonics held to -25 dBc. The unit has a VSWR or <1.5:1 for all phases and is supplied with SMA(F) connectors in a housing that measures 2.25" x 2.25" x 0.63"
PMI Model No. PE2-30-2R04R0-1R5-21-12-SFF is a 2.0 to 4.0 GHz, low noise amplifier that typically provides 30 dB of gain while maintaining a maximum gain flatness of +/-1.0 dB over the operating frequency. The typical noise figure is 1.5 dB and offers a minimum OP1 dB of +21 dBm. The amplifier requires +12 to +15 VDC and has a nominal current draw of 300 mA.
PMI Model No. PE2-30-2R04R0-1R5-21-8V-SFF is a 2.0 to 4.0 GHz, low noise amplifier that typically provides 30 dB of gain while maintaining a maximum gain flatness of +/-1.0 dB over the operating frequency. The typical noise figure is 1.5 dB and offers a minimum OP1 dB of +21 dBm. The amplifier requires +8 VDC and has a nominal current draw of 300 mA.
Arrow RF & Power announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a new high-performance integer-N phase-locked loop (PLL) from Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation. The PE33241 is capable of frequency synthesis up to 5 GHz and offers a low phase noise figure of merit and offers superior phase noise performance with a direct or serial programming option.
M/A-COM Technology Solutions announced an integrated two stage differential amplifier for DOCSIS 3.0 and 3.1 reverse path infrastructure equipment. The MAAM-011186 is designed for customers who require a highly linear variable gain amplifier (VGA) solution for network access equipment and head-ends in the hybrid fiber coax (HFC) system. This device offers 39 dB of gain and 3 dB of noise figure with 31.5 dB attenuation range.
