The CommScope facility in Brno, Czech Republic will produce base station antennas for wireless operators across Europe, significantly reducing lead times before delivery. The quicker deliveries will help Europe’s network operators meet aggressive LTE deployment schedules as they race to deliver enhanced service to subscribers. LTE uses new frequency bands and technologies that must be supported in network infrastructure such as base station antennas. 

Lake Shore Cryotronics, a leading innovator in solutions for measurement over a wide range of temperature and magnetic field conditions, will be exhibiting high-frequency material and device measurement solutions, including a prototype for a terahertz (THz) on-wafer cryogenic probing arm, during European Microwave Week (EuMW), September 8–10, in Paris.

 GigOptix, Inc., a leading supplier of advanced semiconductor communications components for use in Cloud connectivity, data centers, and high-speed optical and wireless networks, today announced the inception of the Global Customer Operations Organization (GCO), under the leadership of Dr. Raluca Dinu, Executive Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing. This change in organization structure is aimed at establishing complete alignment of the company’s operations with the customers’ requirements, by integrating into one organization the driving of a strategic roadmap, tactical and product marketing, engineering applications, and global sales. 

 Linear Technology Corp. announces the LT8631, a 1A, 100V input capable synchronous step-down switching regulator. Synchronous rectification delivers efficiency as high as 90% while Burst Mode® operation keeps quiescent current under 7µA in no-load standby conditions.  

Microsemi Corp., a leading provider of semiconductor solutions differentiated by power, security, reliability and performance, announced its industry-leading space solutions are onboard NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft supporting its successful exploration mission to Pluto.
