RF/Microwave Design

Learn the physics behind a forced harmonic oscillator and the equation required to determine the frequency for peak amplitude.

Knowing how the PN junction depletion region works can help improve your PCBA layout, as we explain in this blog.

A natural frequency is a frequency at which a system manages to oscillate when it lacks the presence of a damping force or any driving force.

Wideband (WB) RF signal processing provides industry-standard performance and enables Giga Samples Per Second (GSPS) data transfer rate, zero loss, good quality, and high-performance in systems.

RF antenna designers should take a cue from mixed-signal designers when creating a PCB layout—read on for tips to ensure signal integrity in your RF design.

Knowing how to set the RLC circuit in parallel resonance, as we explain in this blog, is the key to good bandpass filter design.

You can optimize your signal chain to receive and transmit maximum peak envelope power with the right circuit simulator.

The use of a ceramic chip antenna vs. a PCB trace antenna depends on your individual design requirements and spatial constraints.

Selecting ferrite chokes and clamps to minimize RFI in your design is an important part of any fabrication process.

EMI and RFI can impede your circuit’s integrity and sour the capability of both your PDN and your anticipated signal strength.

Here are some simple circuits that can be designed up to GHz RF oscillators and how to include these oscillator circuits in your PCB layout.

Understanding the various techniques needed for high speed and RF PCB routing requirements is the key to designing successful high speed printed circuit boards.
