Buzzwords like Industry 4.0, the internet of things (IoT), mobile computing, and cloud computing can currently be found in many headlines in magazines. The common theme throughout is the development ...

In high-speed wireless communications systems, signals must be translated in frequency by up-conversion or down-conversion for signal propagation and processing. Traditionally known as mixing, this ...

Frequency mixers are often implemented using a diode bridge or a Gilbert cell. Both types of mixers use a local oscillator (LO) to flip the polarity of the radio-frequency (RF) input. When the LO is ...

TDK Corporation has introduced the TDK-Lambda TPS4500 single- or dual-output industrial power supplies with a 4500W rating.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuitry is an important building block in modern wireless communication systems. In a receiver (RX), it is desirable to maintain the same input level for the A/D ...

The circuit presented here makes amplitude modulation possible, and it also has the significant advantage that it replaces the somewhat exotic and quite expensive OP603AP output opamp with a standard ...

The output power of an RF or microwave system is a key determinant of its performance. For this reason, signal power is measured at every stage of a system’s lifecycle from the design and prototyping ...

Do you need a bias tee? If you want to put a DC voltage on top of an RF signal, chances are that you do. But what exactly are bias tees, and how do they work? If that’s your question, [W2AEW] has an ...
