| Guest Column: Is There A Shortage Of Good RF Applications Engineers? | This article is part of a series of quarterly guest columns by Rick Cory, Applications Engineering Manager, Skyworks Solutions, Inc. In this installment, Cory discusses the recent not-so-subtle shift in RF circuit design, with the field now being divided into two subspecialties: system integrator and RF component designer. He then explores the need for RF applications engineers to fill in the gap between these two camps. | 02/09/2010 | 91.7 KB |
