Anritsu Co. introduces options for its MS269xA series that enhance the wideband FFT analysis of the signal analyzers. By expanding the measurement capability of the MS269xA series with the hardware options, Anritsu strengthens its position as a world leader in test solutions for microwave and next-generation mobile networks by providing a highly accurate analysis tool that can capture wideband signals used in satellite and radar systems, as well as in LTE Advanced designs.

NuWaves Engineering has been selected to join the University of Dayton Research Institute’s Center for Unmanned Aerial System Exploitation (CUE) consortium.

Richardson RFPD Inc. announces that, effective immediately, its domain name will change to richardsonrfpd.com. Richardson RFPD will host a standalone website, www.richardsonrfpd.com, to provide electronic design engineers and buyers with improved access and streamlined navigation to the latest new products from the industry’s leading suppliers of RF, Wireless and Energy technologies. Website visitors connecting to the old, shared rell.com website will now see a link to the new richardsonrfpd.com site.

Mercury Computer Systems Inc. announced it received $2.8 million in follow-on orders from a global provider of electronic equipment for digital signal processing modules for an airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) application. The orders are expected to be shipped over the next four quarters.

AWR Corp., the innovation leader in high-frequency EDA software, and Modelthics Inc., have signed a global reseller agreement for AWR to sell and support Modelithics’ model libraries. The combined product offerings of Modelithics^® CLRand COMPLETE (CLR, NLT, NLT, and SLC) libraries alongside AWR’s Microwave Office™ software gives microwave designers immediate access to high-fidelity parameterized models that better predict real-world behavior when simulated within the AWR design environment.

Delivering the industry’s most power efficient solutions without compromising performance or ease of use, Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) unveiled three new devices based on its KeyStone multicore architecture utilizing the TMS320C66x digital signal processors (DSP) generation. TI’s new TMS320C665x DSPs feature combined fixed- and floating-point capabilities, delivering real-time high performance at low power coupled with smaller form factors.
