AtlanTecRF has launched a plug-in 6U Loop Test Translator (LTT) for satcom RF testing. The traditional configuration for loop test translators used in off-satellite set up, calibration, alignment and quality monitoring of ground based equipment in satcom terminals is the 19” x 1U rack mount chassis. In other applications such packaging does not deliver optimum equipment densities or ease of operation. In such situations AtlanTecRF's plug-in 6U Module comes into its own, bringing ATE stacking principles to the satcom RF test world.
Analog Devices Inc. introduced a phased-locked loop (PLL) synthesizer with integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that allows mobile network operators to improve cellular base station performance and the quality of wireless service. The new ADF4355 PLL with VCO synthesizer operates up to 6.8 GHz, a frequency band that allows significant margin to industry's current carrier frequencies.
The all new, patent pending, design of Loop Test Translators (LTT) from AtlanTecRF are the most comprehensive yet in featuring a reversible signal path and the unique capability of differing and independent transfer characteristics in forward and reverse directions.
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.
Linear Technology introduces the LTM9013, a wideband RF-to-digital µModule® (micromodule) receiver that includes a high performance dual 14-bit, 310Msps analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a high IIP3 I/Q demodulator, two variable gain amplifiers, and 300MHz lowpass filters. The LTM9013’s quadrature sampling architecture enables acquisition of up to 300MHz of signal bandwidth with IMD3 performance of 66dB across the entire band.
Analog Devices Inc. introduced the CN0267 demonstration circuit for a loop powered HART® (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) enabled smart transmitter, for industrial applications that need to operate within a set 3.5-mA power budget. This field instrument circuit demonstrates a complete low power, high precision signal chain solution with minimum area overhead, which has been tested and verified by ADI as part of their Circuits from the Lab™ reference circuits’ initiative.
Aeroflex Ltd. has added support for 4x2 multi-input multi-output (MIMO) to the 7100 Digital Radio Test Set for the R&D testing of LTE user equipment (UE) being designed with this feature.
Mesuro, the Cardiff University spin-out, which offers testing and services solutions for the semiconductor industry, has announced successful completion and installation of its Open Loop Active Harmonic Load Pull system at Miyoshi Corp., Itami, Japan. This system represents the company’s first success in what it sees as the potentially lucrative Japanese market.
NMDG has demonstrated support for fully calibrated contactless loop probes, kindly provided by Rosenberger HF-Technik, in its Integrated Component Characterization Environment (ICE) flagship software.
