With so much attention on IBOC, it is appropriate to step back and review the basic principles of RF amplifiers. The radio transmitter is a collection of stages. Each stage modifies the signal in some ...

Abstract: Analog radio frequency (RF) systems are complex, involving unfamiliar terms, complicated regulations, and uncommon circuit operations. Additionally, the electronics often deal with a broad ...

Wireless communications products that depend on RF principles are everywhere these days, and the growth rate is astonishing. From cell phones and wireless PDAs to Wi-Fi-enabled laptops, Bluetooth ...

A typical precision operational amplifier (op amp) may have a 1 MHz gain bandwidth product. Theoretically, you might expect RF signals that are in gigahertz to be attenuated to very small levels ...

These days we’re surrounded by high-speed electronics and it’s no small feat that they can all play nicely in near proximity to each other. We have RF emissions standards to thank, which ensure new ...

Evaluating S-parameters and other CW stimulus responses is essential for characterising rf amplifiers. An rf vector network analyser (VNA) plays a critical role for this purpose, and proper ...

UPDATE: Agilent have informed us that the 2nd of October date is now full, but they have added another day with the same schedule – Tuesday 27 November. Agilent Technologies is running another full ...

Agilent Technologies is running a full day seminar entitled “Back to Basics RF and Digital Measurements workshop“. The date and location is 10 October, at Winnersh, Berkshire. The free event will be ...
