RFs Overlooked Components And More Interesting Than You Think

Whenever people need to magnify an RF signal, the amplifier plays a pivotal role. They are used in commercial and defense avionics, space and deep space, electronic warfare, naval applications, mobile internet, satellite communication, and wireless communications.

SPOTLIGHT ON AMPLIFIERS & OSCILLATORS

Linearization Of RF Amplifiers

This white paper explores the linearization of a non-linear RF power amplifier, demonstrating how Rohde & Schwarz instruments integrate with MathWorks' MATLAB/Simulink for simulation.

Capacitors Support Radar MMIC Amplifiers Via Bypassing

Capacitors play a crucial role in optimizing MMIC amplifier performance. Learn about their essential function and the diverse capacitor types critical for radar system reliability and performance.

INDUSTRY INSIGHTS

Advantages Of Marki Microwave's Tunable RF MMIC Filter Technology

MFBT tunable filters offer wide tuning, compact design, and simplicity, providing flexible alternatives to switched filter banks, with advantages in return loss and tuning versatility.

AN892: Design Guide For Isolated DC/DC Using The Si882xx/883xx

The Si882xx/Si883xx integrate digital isolators with a dc-dc controller. This note guides selecting external components for the dc-dc controller.

How Can Crest Factor Be Used to Assess Amplifier Linearity?

Crest factor (CF) is the ratio of a signal's peak amplitude to its average power. Analyzing an amplifier's input and output CF values can validate linear operation or determine nonlinearities in the system.

Power Amplifiers Improve Communication Links

As RF amplifier designers, we advise that higher power output improves communication links, though the definition of "better" requires clarification.
