Q: Another topic is “Design-for-Testability for RF Circuits and Systems”—is this driven by new DFT capabilities in the RF realm? A: Yes, but it’s driven also by new needs. With wireless business ...

For thorough product testing and high test throughput, test engineers need to understand the basics of RF technology, what to test for, and which instruments are best suited for the job.

CMOS mixers are integral components in modern radio frequency (RF) circuit design, enabling frequency conversion in wireless systems while prioritising low power consumption.

Graphene transistors are attractive for many applications but making integrated circuits without degrading their characteristics is proving challenging. Here, the authors demonstrate a radio ...

Front-end limiter circuits using Schottky and PIN diodes can provide needed protection in communications and other RF systems. However, designers still must deal with the upper-frequency limit ...
