RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support fora discrete 800-Micron GaAs pHEMT FET. The TGF2080 from TriQuint Semiconductor is constructed without via holes thereby allowing for self-biasing and eliminating the need for a negative supply voltage.

Mini-Circuits and Modelithics Inc. are working together to develop high-accuracy linear and non-linear models for selected surface-mount products. The latest offering includes three new X-Parameter* amplifier models for Mini-Circuits PHA-1+, GVA-62+ and GVA-63+ products.

Anritsu Co. (booth #938) will display test solutions to meet the high-frequency testing requirements of engineers in the aerospace and defense, communications, and semiconductor industries at IMS 2013 in Seattle, June 4-6. Featured will be the VectorStar Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) platform, which is an ideal solution for device characterization, as well as solutions for measuring components and subsystems used in radar, high-speed serial, microwave backhaul, wireless network, and other applications.  

After obtaining ISO 13485 certification in 2012 for medical devices, and in order to respond to the growing demand of customers in the medical and Hi-Rel applications, IPDiA unveils its ability to offer advanced foundry services.

Molex Inc. announced that it will exhibit at the IEEE 2013 International Microwave Symposium (IMS) in Seattle, WA, June 2-7.   Molex will showcase its broad range of products and solutions available for the RF/microwave market, including several new products and live product demonstrations, in booth 719.  

Continuing to build momentum and recognition for their “Size Matters” HPA platforms, Empower RF Systems is hosting live demonstrations of their 1 kW, 20 to 1000 MHz, 5U chassis design (model 2162) at IMS 2013, Booth 1827. 

Raytheon Co. booked a $106 million contract for its combat-proven Paveway™ II family of precision-guided munitions. The company was awarded the direct commercial sale from an international customer. The contract includes Paveway kits for both GBU-12 (500lb) and GBU-58 (250lb) guided bombs. Paveway is a Raytheon-designed kit that transforms "dumb" bombs into precision-guided munitions.

Mesuro launches a new test solution that provides the industry substantial benefits in approaches to device characterization test. The new offering utilizes an ‘envelope load pull technique’, along with the latest generation of commercial off-the-shelf PXI hardware and LabVIEW system design software from National Instruments, to provide extremely rapid test scenarios to be run on the device under test.
