• Introducing Pentek’s Family Of Quartz Products

  Based on the Xilinx Zynq® Ultascale+™ RFSoC, the Quartz family brings performance and high-density integration to a wide range of different application spaces with a uniquely flexible design path. Quartz is available in standard form factors like 3U VPX, or with the QuartzXM™ Carrier Design Kit, it can be deployed on application specific custom carriers. 

• Introducing Skyworks’ Broadband Low-Noise Amplifiers

  The SKY67183-396LF and SKY67189-396LF models are broadband low-noise amplifiers designed for upcoming 5G network requirements. With features such as superior gain flatness, exceptional linearity, and an internal active bias circuitry, these LNA offers the ability to externally adjust supply current and provide stable performance over temperature and process variation.

• Introducing The Vegas And Vampire Cybersecurity Solutions For Avionics Data Busses

  The Vegas and Vampire solutions are physical mitigation devices designed to simplify cyber assessment and authorizations to protect avionics bus from malicious traffic, LRU failure, signal transients, untrusted bus monitors, etc. They are compatible with many COTS MIL-STD-1553 analysis tools to provide users with the flexibility to process and analyze data based on their platform’s needs.

• IMS 2020 MicroApps: 60 GHz Phased Array Design Using XFdtd For WiGig

  In this video presentation, Remcom discusses analyzing and optimizing an aperture coupled 1x4 patch antenna array with a compact, fan-shaped feeding network for operation in 60 GHz band using Remcom’s full-wave electromagnetic simulation product, XFdtd. We also demonstrate superposition and antenna array optimization. The superposition simulation provides a means for checking the performance of individual elements in an array, each with a different input power and phase. The array optimization feature allows users to estimate the excitation for each element in the array for a specified EIRP. Further, the total spatial coverage of designed phased arrays will be accurately estimated. 

• Designing A Practical 100GbE Real-Time Recording System For The Xilinx RFSoC

  The Xilinx RFSoC provides 100 Gigabit Ethernet optical ports for streaming data from its high-speed A/D converters. 100 Gigabit Ethernet is capable of streaming data at rates as high as 12.5 Gigabytes per second. In order to capture data at these very high rates, real-time recording systems require a major upgrade in their storage technology. NVME provides a new storage protocol and interface to accommodate exponentially higher streaming data rates than previous generation interfaces. This presentation will familiarize system design engineers with PC based real-time recording systems and the latest techniques for creating an NVME PCIe type recording system.
