May 21, 2010 [Conferences] International Microwave Symposium 2010 The IEEE’s 2010 International Microwave Symposium (IMS) is sure to be packed with people, new products, and cutting-edge technology. Microwaves & RF is covering the show from all angles, to give design engineers a roadmap for the week’s most important announcements. Check out all the news from the show here! May 11, 2010 [Devices & ICs] Sizing Up Benefits Of Wafer-Scale Packaging Wafer-scale packaging (WSP) is a bold new approach to housing semiconductors. It uses a semiconductor process to create a package around an IC—a package that is only slightly larger than the chip itself. To learn more about WSP technology, don’t miss this FAQ, sponsored by Avago Technologies April 16, 2010 [Communications] Avago RF VMMK Devices Improve Performance by Reducing Parasitic Inductance and Capacitance Packaging has always significantly impacted on microwave IC and amplifier performance. In most cases, the inherent parasitic capacitance and inductance of the package lead frame and wire bonds set a limit to circuit performance. Avago Technologies developed a bonded-wafer-to-wafer package technology in 2004 and now offers innovative microwave gallium arsenide (GaAs) VMMK devices based on the proprietary WaferCAP™ chip scale package.

March 17, 2010 [Conferences] Xilinx- LTE Baseband Targeted Design Platform-Mobile World Congress 2010 Mark Quartermain, Baseband Product Marketing Manager with Xilinx. explains the LTE Baseband Targeted Design Platform March 17, 2010 [Conferences] Lime Microsystems- LMS6002D Wide band Multi-Standard Transceiver-Mobile World Congress 2010 Paul Whytock talks with Dr Ebrahim Busheri, CEO of Lime Microsystems about the LMS6002D Wide band Multi-Standard Transceiver March 17, 2010 [Conferences] Global Foundries Semiconductor Development VP of Marketing with Global Foundries explains his company’s semiconductor development work in conjunction with ARM March 17, 2010 [Conferences] NetHawk and Aeroflex describe the East 500 Capacity tester for LTE-Mobile World Congress 2010 Petri Yllasjarvi, Global Key Account Manager for NetHawk and Nick Carter, Product Manager, System Test Products with Aeroflex describe the company's East 500 Capacity tester for LTE March 17, 2010 [Conferences] Xilinx-Radio Targeted Design Platform Senior Product Manager with Xilinx, David Hawke describes the company’s Radio Targeted Design Platform to Paul Whytock March 17, 2010 [Conferences] picoChip-PC323 Next Generation Femtocell Chip at Mobile World Congress 2010 Paul Whytock talks with Rupert Baines, VP of Marketing with picoChip about the PC323 next generation femtocell chip March 1, 2010 [Communications] White Paper: Fiber Optic Transceivers in Basestation Applications Base station transceivers with greater bandwidth are in demand. Fiber optic links give cost effective, high bandwidth new capacity with more flexibility than copper links. Fiber links make system modifications and future upgrades simpler than would be possible with traditional copper links. In addition, fiber features inherent data security and superior reliability in hostile environments. March 1, 2010 [Communications] White Paper: Integration Creates Compact CDMA RF Front End with GPS Capability In this whitepaper, design requirements, best practice PCB layout, component selection and system design will be addressed. March 1, 2010 [Communications] White Paper: GaAs-Based Surface Mount Wafer Scale Package MMICs for DC to 45 GHz Applications Packaging has always been the "Achilles Heal" of extracting the maximum microwave performance out of any IC technology. The inherent parasitic capacitance and inductance associated with bond wires, lead frames, and encapsulating dielectric materials dominate the final products high frequency performance. February 16, 2010 [Conferences] Mobile World Congress 2010 Staged in the Spanish city of Barcelona the 2010 Mobile World Congress provides an international forum for over 1300 companies to present the products and technology that will shape the future of mobile communications. In addition to it’s huge exhibition content the Mobile World Congress also serves as a global hub where industry experts can discuss the industry trends that drive wireless communications forward.
