My first job on leaving college was maintaining military radios. I had covered RF theory, but found that the practice was significantly different. The company’s detailed design work was performed at a ...

Originally, operational amplifiers (op amps) were not thought of as candidates for RF design, but the advent of newer, faster devices has now made them an attractive option for some applications. The ...

If you need an amplifier, [Hans Rosenberg] has some advice. Don’t design your own; grab cheap and tiny RF amplifier modules and put them on a PCB that fits your needs. These are the grandchildren of ...

Wireless is everywhere these days. What new electronic product doesn’t have a wireless or a radio-frequency (RF) component today? Chances are you could be designing something that incorporates an RF ...

The IoT has increased the demand for good radio frequency (RF) design practices from the mains, to wall outlet power, all the way to the antenna. With several IoT standards employed today, constraint ...

RF EDA continues pushing the boundaries for today’s complex system designs. Connected workflows are creating shift left opportunities for engineering in virtual space. RF and microwave architects and ...

Mentor Graphics and TSMC have released a 65nm RF design kit that combines TSMC's 65-nm mixed-signal and RF process technology with Mentor’s new ICStudio custom chip design platform. The kit covers ...

Synopsys SNPS recently announced that it has designed a radio frequency (“RF”) design reference flow and design solutions kit (DSK) on Samsung Foundry's 8nm RF low-power FinFET process in ...

In the 1980s radio frequency (RF) engineers developed microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuits that revolutionized the reliability and controllability of RF systems, while significantly ...
