Custom MMIC, a leading developer of performance driven monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), has developed a growing family of distributed amplifiers, called BroadRange Distributed Amplifiers™, with bandwidths from DC to 50 GHz. The distributed amplifiers provide industry leading performance in terms of dynamic range, frequency bandwidth and power consumption.

CTS Corp. will be exhibiting new products and demonstrating several filters at the 2016 IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS) scheduled for May 24-26, 2016 in San Francisco’s Moscone Center. Products shown at CTS exhibition booth No. 923 will include bandpass filters and stable VCXOs, TCXOs, and OCXOs, suitable for use in FDD and TDD outdoor wireless infrastructure equipment.

SAW filter developer Resonant announced a second licensing agreement that provides a path to production revenue if the company's duplexer designs are successful.

Leonardo-Finmeccanica has launched Osprey, the latest addition to the company’s electronically scanning (E-scan) radar product range. Based around a flat-panel antenna design, Osprey is the world’s first lightweight airborne surveillance radar to be built with no moving parts.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced new collaborations with China Mobile on key 5G technologies. This includes channel measurement and modeling and massive MIMO over-the-air (OTA) testing.

MACOM announced a 300 W GaN on Silicon rugged power transistor in cost effective plastic packaging optimized for use in commercial scale solid-state RF energy applications. Based on MACOM’s Gen4 GaN technology, the new MAGe-102425-300 delivers performance that exceeds LDMOS at an equivalent price profile at scaled volume production levels.

Richardson RFPD Inc. announced its participation in the 2016 IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS), to be held in San Francisco, Calif., May 24-26, 2016. The IMS2016 is the largest RF/microwave commercial exhibition in the world, with more than 600 exhibiting companies. It is held in conjunction with the IEEE RFIC and ARFTG conferences.

Mercury Systems Inc. announced that it will showcase its innovative solutions at two events next week, the 2016 SOFIC (Special Operations Forces Industry Conference), May 23-26 in Tampa, Fla., and the IEEE MTT International Microwave Symposium (IMS) in San Francisco, Calif., May 24-26.

Microwave Development Laboratories Inc. will offer a sampling of its extensive expertise and product lines based on high-performance waveguide technology at the upcoming 2016 IEEE International Microwave Symposium and Exhibition scheduled for May 22-27, 2016 in San Francisco, Calif.

Echodyne Corp. announced the development of MESA-DAA, an Airborne Detect and Avoid (DAA) radar for small to medium-sized unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The small, lightweight, and low power DAA radar will operate at K-band and be capable of rapidly scanning a broad field of view in azimuth and elevation at ranges out to 3km. MESA-DAA is based on Echodyne’s patented Metamaterials Electronically Scanning Array (MESA™), which offers breakthrough cost, size, weight, and power (C-SWAP) improvements over traditional electronically scanning array technology.
