Integrated Device Technology Inc. (IDT) introduced a new broadband single-pole, single-throw (SPST) absorptive switch developed for a wide range of wireless and RF applications. With an operating frequency range of 30 to 8000 MHz, the IDT® F2910 is a high-linearity, low-insertion loss 50-ohm switch that delivers exceptional RF performance. The device is ideal for 4G/LTE-Advanced base stations, portable wireless applications, point-to-point, public safety infrastructure, and test equipment.

The United States District Court for the Central District of California in Los Angeles has granted MACOM’s request for a preliminary injunction, ruling in MACOM’s lawsuit against Infineon Technologies over GaN-on-Si technology rights.

Harris Corp. has received a four-year, $55 million contract to perform sustainment work on the electronic warfare system used by the U.S. Air Force to protect B-52s and C-130s from radar-guided threats. The contract was received during the first quarter of Harris' fiscal 2017.

Spacek Labs launches new frequency converters/mixers and high pass filter aimed at serving the 5G/WiGig research efforts in the frequency bands from 57 to 71 GHz.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced it will demonstrate an innovative and diverse range of electronic design, verification and test solutions at electronica 2016 (www.electronica.de), Hall A1, Booth 506, Munich, Nov. 8-11.

The new EV12DS460 from e2v is the world's first DAC to perform signal generation directly at K-Band (18 to 27 GHz), removing the need for signal up-conversion and the costly mixers required to perform this task. The DAC simplifies system architecture and reduces size, weight and power.

Inphi Corporation has signed a definitive agreement to acquire ClariPhy Communications Inc. for $275 million in cash. ClariPhy provides ultra-high speed digital signal processing (DSP) systems-on-chip (SoC) for multi-terabit data, long haul and metro networks. This DSP capability complements Inphi’s fiber optic components, which will enable Inphi to offer more of the block diagram for optical networks.

NI, the provider of platform-based systems that enable engineers and scientists to solve the world’s greatest engineering challenges, today announced a collaboration with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to supply core infrastructure for a path-breaking channel emulation testbed, called Colosseum, which will play a central role in the DARPA Spectrum Collaboration Challenge.

SemiGen Inc. , an ISO and ITAR registered RF/microwave assembly, automated PCB manufacturing, and RF Supply Center, has added a series of new limiter diodes to its expanding product offerings, SLP7100 series.

Akoustis Technologies Inc., a manufacturer of innovative BulkONE™ bulk acoustic wave (BAW) high-band RF filters for mobile wireless, announced today a significant performance improvement in its patented single-crystal BAW technology, which the Company believes satisfies resonator requirements to produce commercial, high-band RF filters, including 4G/LTE, Wi-Fi, emerging 5G and other wireless applications.
