Analog Devices, Inc today introduced a new highly integrated demodulator for broadband applications, such as cellular base stations, satellite communications, point-to-point (PtP) radios and defence systems. ADI’s new ADRF6850 demodulator expands ADI’s RF/microwave product portfolio and offers the highest level of integration and functionality by combining five devices and three RF functions into one small-footprint, surface-mount chip.

CML Microcircuits has announced the long-anticipated upgrade of its highly integrated solution for transmitter linearisation, the CMX998. The CMX998 is now even more flexible boasting an impressive RF operating range of 30MHz to 1GHz, representing a state-of-the-art solution ideal for portable devices. Not only is flexibility on hand, but high performance, low wide-band noise and a high degree of linearisation gain too. With the world going digit...

DAILY RFID has recently released reusable RFID Bracelet for access control application, such as amusement park and swimming pool. It is constructed from non-allergenic silicone and makes you feel comfortable when wearing on the wrist.

Agilent Technologies Inc. today announced that it has been awarded a $35 million contract by the U.S. Army. Under the terms of the contract, Agilent will deliver up to 1,600 MXG microwave analog signal generators over seven years, to the Army as part of its Test Equipment Modernization (TEMOD) program.

Agilent Technologies Inc. today introduced the Agilent 53200 RF and universal frequency counter/timer series, the first frequency counters with LXI Class C compliance. The 53200 series, featuring industry-leading performance and usability, is built with standard computing I/O for ease of connectivity and data collection. The combination of high-speed measurement and built-in analysis provides new functionality previously unavailable in basic freq...

Integrated Device Technology today announced the all-silicon CMOS oscillator, which achieves an industry-leading 100ppm total frequency error across temperature, voltage and other factors.

Fox Electronics, a leading global supplier of frequency control solutions, recently increased its range of watch crystals with a new tuning fork. The FX122 is approximately 33% smaller than previous models, measuring just 2.1 mm x 1.3 mm with a very low profile of 0.6 mm. The miniature size of the new FX122 watch crystal makes it ideal for portable and handheld devices where space is critical.

Z-Communications, Inc. announces a new RoHS compliant VCO (Voltage-Controlled Oscillator) model V846ME29-LF. The V846ME29-LF operates at 2900-4400 MHz with a tuning voltage range of 1-22 Vdc. This VCO features a typical phase noise of -80 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz offset and a typical tuning sensitivity of 90 MHz/V.

RF Micro Devices today announced the introduction of the RFUV5945A during the European Microwave Week (EuMW) 2010 Conference. The RFUV5945A I/Q up-converter is the newest addition to RFMD’s rapidly growing portfolio of innovative components for microwave and millimeter wave radio applications. It is ideally suited for a variety of end markets, including point-to-point microwave radio, military radio, VSAT, and test and measurement.

NXP Semiconductors N.V. today announced the availability of an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) RF power transistor; the BLF888A, a 600W LDMOS device for broadcast transmitters and industrial applications. The BLF888A is the most powerful LDMOS broadcast transistor in the market to date. For a DVB-T signal over the full UHF band from 470 to 860MHz, the transistor can deliver 120W average power with efficiencies greater than 31 percent. Featuring excell...
