A new and improved EM Socket II architecture within NI AWR Design Environment™ has been developed in order to enhance the AWR Connected™ for EM interoperability between third-party electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools and the company’s flagship high-frequency circuit design software, Microwave Office.

Southwest Antennas introduced its new small form factor “Turbo Cloverleaf” family of circularly polarized (CP) Omni antennas in 1.98 to 2.2 GHz and 2.3 to 2.5 GHz frequencies.

Eastern OptX is showing a radar target scenario generator designed to put a radar test range on your test bench. The Eastern OptX Series 1100 Radar Target Simulator is a true propagation path replicator. The Series 1100 receives the signal transmitted from a radar system and adds the round-trip propagation delay associated with the target distance. That signal is then output to the radar receiver.

Molex will display its innovative, diverse portfolio of RF/Microwave connectors and cable assemblies in booth 1911 at the IEEE 2016 International Microwave Symposium (IMS), held May 22–27 at The Moscone Center in San Francisco, Calif. Molex develops and delivers integrated RF/Microwave solutions for multiple industries, including aerospace and defense, automotive, medical, instrumentation, telecom and wireless.

NXP Semiconductors N.V. introduced the industry’s largest portfolio of broadband 28 V LDMOS two-stage, dual-path Doherty-optimized Integrated Circuits (ICs) for small cell base stations. As part of NXP’s leading RF power transistor portfolio, the new LDMOS ICs are designed to provide RF power, efficiency, and gain in all current and proposed frequency bands, from 700 to 3800 MHz, with RF output power of 2.5 to 12 W.

Anokiwave Inc., an innovative company providing highly integrated core IC solutions for mmW markets and AESA based terminals, announced the worldwide release of the Ka-Band Tx Core IC family for earth terminal SATCOM applications. This Tx IC family coupled with Anokiwave’s K-Band SATCOM Rx ICs provide a complete K/Ka-Band earth terminal solution enabling auto-alignment of fixed earth terminals and auto pointing for SATCOM on the move applications using GEO satellite space assets.

In booth #2129 Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces the UltraCMOS® PE19601, a monolithic phase and amplitude controller (MPAC) solution for beamforming. 

Custom MMIC, a leading developer of performance driven monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), is featuring a range of new high performance microwave amplifiers and switches with ultra wideband operation at IMS 2016 in San Francisco.

During the IMS2016 show, International Manufacturing Services (ims) will offer a peek into future trends of the RF, microwave and the electronics industries.

TE Connectivity Ltd. , a world leader in connectivity and sensors, announced its Raychem matched impedance splices for aerospace applications. Designed to comply with MIL-PRF-32517 standard, the splices solve the problem of costly removal and replacement of damaged coaxial cable by allowing fast, easy in situ repairs that maintain characteristic impedance and other electrical properties of the system.
