inTEST Thermal Solutions introduces an environmentally friendly series of Temptronic® ThermoStream® temperature forcing systems that use one-third less energy with very low audible noise.

 Cobham AvComm, formerly Aeroflex AvComm business unit, announced automated test and alignment support for Motorola XTS and XTL series radios. Cobham AvComm’s latest product, the 8800S Digital Radio Test Set, is equipped with the application that fully automates radio testing and alignment. This ensures optimum radio performance in significantly less time, minimizing service and support costs for the end users and dealers. 

Rohde & Schwarz offers a new, speed-optimized production tester – the R&S SMBV100A vector signal generator equipped with the R&S SMBV-P101 package – for the production testing of Global Navigation Satellite System receivers.

As part of the organisation’s growth strategy e2v is expanding its microwave business unit to a new, larger site in Lincoln, UK.

A consortium of Telecom industry vendors, IT companies, small and medium-sized enterprises and academic organisations in Europe has been awarded €8 million research funding to develop the infrastructure required to support the future 5G network and communication systems.

 Intel, a world leader in computing innovation, and Wipro Limited, a leading global information technology, consulting, and business process services company, announced that they are joining the International M2M Council (IMC), a global trade association for the growing industry known as the Internet of Things (or machine-to-machine communications). IMC, which has quickly gained over 10,000 members, comprised almost entirely of OEMs, enterprise users, and applications developers, aims to boost understanding and sales in IoT. 

MicroWave Technology, Inc., a division of IXYS Corp., announced that it released two pre-amplifiers for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) coil applications. 

 Crystek Corp. has launched the CCPD-575, a new ultra-low phase noise LVPECL oscillator providing a -162 dBc/Hz noise floor.  Compact and powerful, the CCPD-575 has an industry leading phase noise for an LVPECL oscillator – at least 15 dB lower phase noise than most LVPECL oscillators on the market today. Close-in phase noise is also excellent @ -90 dBc/Hz for the 100 MHz variant. This overall ultra-low phase noise translates to a typical phase jitter of 85 fS RMS (12 kHz to 20 MHz). 

Pulse Electronics Corp. announces the release of a family of six new ultra-low profile SMT shielded inductors for compact point-of-load and mobile devices. With mounted height profiles of 1.0 to 3.2 mm, these inductors are ideal for today's mobile computing, home automation, portable POS and other small handheld devices.
