Editor’s note: Here is another ‘Golden nugget’ from my former TI colleague from my days at TI. I recommend that you observe Keller’s insights—he is an expert in the RF arena. High-speed data ...

Growing demands in wideband radio and wireless communication deployments are imposing the necessity of a proper radio architecture capable of providing solid performance, more flexibility, in addition ...

When you are trying to digitize a modulated RF signal, you have several choices: you can heterodyne the signal down to a lower intermediate frequency (IF) one or even twice, then digitize; you can ...

The critical component in all digital communications receivers is the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC sampling rate, bandwidth, and noise tolerance establishes the specifications and ...

Imec has developed a compact, highly linear 3.2 giga-sample-per-second (GSps) RF-sampling ADC that uses ring amplification (ringamp). The ADC has a record low power consumption of 61.3mW and supports ...

With the exponential increase in wireless traffic, mobile networks are transformed into more software-driven, virtualized, flexible, intelligent, and energy efficient systems. These trends have ...

Modern SDRs evolve from configurable platforms into intelligent wideband sensing systems combining high dynamic range, ...

The tasks performed by filters in various RF architectures. Differentiating factors between those architectures. Current trends in filter performance considerations. At any given time, a multitude of ...

AMD is to add integrated direct RF-sampling data converters to its Versal adaptive SoCs. Versal RF Series development tools are available now. Silicon samples and evaluation kits are expected to be ...

This paper presents the design and performance of a key RF circuit necessary for the realization of a reconfigurable, integrated RF front-end: a tunable frequency, selectable bandwidth, on-chip, ...

ZURICH, Switzerland, Oct. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QuantalRF, a pioneering developer of cutting-edge RF semiconductor and antenna solutions, is on a mission to significantly reduce power ...
