Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a selection of SDI video and optoelectronics products from M/A-COM Technology Solutions.

Keysight Technologies Inc. introduced an improved version of the FFT option, now available on the U5303A PCIe 12-bit high-speed data acquisition card. This card features two channels and a sampling rate from 1 GS/s to 3.2 GS/s.

Haigh-Farr, a world leader in the design, development and manufacturing of integrated antennas for defense, space and commercial applications, will demonstrate its full range of antenna products at booth 402 at the DATT (Defense and Aerospace, Test and Telemetry) Summit 2016.

Holzworth Instrumentation will be demonstrating its latest real time phase noise analyzers at IFCS in New Orleans, May 9-12.

NI, the provider of solutions that enable engineers and scientists to solve the world’s greatest engineering challenges, announcedtoday the world’s first software defined radio (SDR) for the millimeter wave (mmWave) spectrum. The new NI mmWave Transceiver System is a full transceiver that can transmit and/or receive wide-bandwidth signals at an unprecedented 2 GHz real-time bandwidth, covering the spectrum in the E-band, 71 to 76 GHz.

The new series of directional couplers from Knowles brand DLI, provides another example of how high permittivity, temperature stable materials can reduce size/weight and provide excellent performance repeatability.

Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces two UltraCMOS® MPAC–Doherty products—the PE46130 and PE46140. These monolithic phase and amplitude controllers (MPAC) join the PE46120 in offering maximum phase-tuning flexibility for Doherty power amplifier (PA) optimization.

Attendees of the 2016 International Microwave Symposium (IEEE-IMS) Exhibition will have the opportunity to see printed circuit boards made in-person by visiting LPKF Laser & Electronics in booth #1423. LPKF will be presenting its latest laser PCB prototyping system, the LPKF ProtoLaser S4, for the first time in North America.

Coilcraft's new SLR Family of high current, shielded power inductors is offered with current ratings up to 100 amps and inductance values from 85 to 370 nH, making it suitable for high frequency applications such as multi-phase VRM/VRD/EVRD regulators, Intel™ IMVP compatible systems, and GPUs/video graphic cards. The inductors also feature a tight DCR tolerance (±5.4% to ±10%) for lossless, inductor DCR-based current sensing.

Engineers at BE CAE & Test (Catania, Italy) have taken the simulation process well beyond the typical approach of “run a test / deliver a report.” Instead, using the COMSOL Multiphysics software and the Application Builder, they have created a series of easy-to-use custom applications that perform state-of-the-art virtual prototyping of their customers’ surface-mount device designs. The apps hide the complexity of the underlying detailed model, yet still provide access to the powerful functionality of the simulation.
