TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

Testing A 24-28GHz Power Amplifier Using The 5G New Radio Test Standard
In this white paper, we will introduce some of the main challenges in test and measurement of a device at mmWave frequencies, with a 26 GHz pioneer band defined for the UK between 24.25 - 27.5 GHz.
Characterizing Parasitic Components In Power Converters
With the rise of wide-bandgap semiconductors like GaN and SiC, characterizing parasitic components in power converters is crucial for maintaining efficiency and preventing performance issues.
Technical Report: Simulation Of Plasma Materials In XFdtd
This paper discusses the FDTD method to simulate the behavior of plasma materials using Remcom’s XFdtd 3D EM Simulation Software and presents validation in one and three dimensions.
De-Embedding Test Fixtures For High-Speed Digital Applications
Test fixtures are commonly used in high-speed digital measurement to connect devices to measurement equipment. Characterization and analysis in time and frequency domains help remove the influence of these fixtures.
Testing For Coexistence In Crowded And Contested RF Environments
In this paper, we review some of the key research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) challenges that arise when developing and deploying systems that need to operate in congested and/or contested RF environments.
