The use of thin film, a layer of material used to fabricate electronic components beginning at fractions of a nanometer, for SMT microstrip filters can dramatically reduce their size and increase performance.

Historically, amplifier selection for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing was based mainly on tribal knowledge and information scattered across the EMC industry. This application note provides the EMC test engineer or technician with the information necessary to make the proper decision.

Receiver-protector limiter (RPL) circuits, the “heart” of which typically comprises PIN diodes, can be utilized to protect sensitive components from large input signals without adversely affecting small-signal operation.

Operating in mmWave bands requires adherence to tighter tolerances. Test methods and positioner design and selection must provide this precision, as well as accommodate more directional beamforming and a total-system approach.

Remcom’s XFdtd EM Simulation Software offers unique capabilities to help engineers navigate antenna design challenges with speed and accuracy.

THz technology promises to be indispensable – not only to achieve target requirements in terms of maximum throughput and extremely low latencies but also to realize intriguing novel applications.
