Agilent Technologies Inc. introduces an eight-channel version of its U5309A 8-bit single-slot PCIe®Gen2 digitizer with on-board processing, providing unprecedented channel density and minimum footprint at this level of performance.

Linear Technology announces the LTC6431-20, a 20 MHz to 2 GHz single-ended input and output fixed gain amplifier offering outstanding 46.2 dBm OIP3 (Output Third Order Intercept) and 2.6 dB noise figure. Its OP1dB (Output 1dB Compression Point) is a best-in-class 22 dBm.

RFMW Ltd. and Aviacomm Inc. announced a distribution agreement effective April 1, 2014. The agreement initially covers customers in North America, Europe and South East Asia with the possibility of future expansion. Aviacomm is a leader in wideband RF CMOS ICs. RFMW Ltd. is a specialized distributor providing customers and suppliers with focused distribution of RF and microwave components as well as specialized component-engineering support.

The SMA-connectorized, zero-degree WPD1040A is a Wilkinson-type power divider/combiner and features a low insertion loss of 0.50 dB (typical), high isolation of 18 dB (minimum) and excellent VSWR. It is suitable for LTE and land mobile radio (LMR), as well as RF bench test and mobile base station applications.

Fox Electronics, a leading global supplier of frequency control solutions and an IDT company, now offers an LVDS version, in addition to the recently released LVPECL version of its next generation ultra precision oscillator technology, XpressO-ULTRA.  Designed to meet today’s intense bandwidth requirements that need ultra precision timing technology, XpressO-ULTRA provides exceptionally clean and stable clocking to ensure better performance and lower bit rate errors.

The Fraunhofer Institute for high frequency physics and radar technology has decided to use the world's first 145 GHz broadband millimetre-wave test system, based upon the ME7838A system from Anritsu.

The increasing popularity of the bi-annual RF & Microwave Society meetings was clearly demonstrated by a record gathering of engineers, academics and business people from across the industry at the April 2014 ARMMS conference.
