RF Power semiconductors provide the amplification for a wide variety of applications, from MRI to broadcast transmitters, radar systems and cellular base stations. This paper covers component construction options available for all RF power amplifier technologies; discrete transistors, impedance matched field effect transistors (IMFETs), and MMIC amplifier ICs.

Today’s satellite communication systems combine features from legacy cellular networks and emerging wireless technologies. New constellations are under development that attempt to provide ubiquitous mobility and internet networks via satellites, ground stations and user terminals.

Embedded systems, used in applications ranging from toys to advanced aircraft, use microcontrollers to execute specialized operations within a more complex system. Most microcontrollers are mixed signal devices using a combination of analog and digital signals.

Innovation in next-generation mobile devices creates significant challenges for antenna implementation. 5G handsets have more than twice as many RF paths, and new industrial designs and button replacement add space constraints. Qorvo Antenna Solutions Reimagined (QASR) helps navigate space, design and performance challenges to harness the true power of antennas.

5G deployments have only recently started, and releases beyond R15 will continue to tap into the tremendous potential of 5G. However, as a new generation of cellular technology typically appears every 8-10 years, 6G can be expected around 2030.

3D-ICs integrate many dies that are densely packed, which leads to heat generation that causes performance issues. This white paper helps designers understand the cross-fabric thermal challenges introduced by 3D-ICs and explains how the Cadence® Celsius™ Thermal Solver helps designers analyze and develop strategies to mitigate this impact.

RF signal generators have been a staple in test and measurement for more than a half century. During that time, they have evolved significantly, but the underlying principles remain the same. This whitepaper provides an overview of the basic construction of RF signal generators and the associated figures of merit.

In this trend paper, TE Connectivity (TE) will explore the demands and trends in smart surveillance technology within the smart city ecosystem and review what engineers need to consider when designing smart surveillance products and components.
