At RF and microwave frequencies, the more pertinent question often is, “What is the package?” At higher frequencies, the package can have as much effect on the performance as the circuit it houses and it is better to think of the package and the device as inseparable. Years ago, custom packages were needed to ensure that the performance of microwave circuits was not “thrown away” once in a package. For applications where protecting the circuit was tantamount to... — Jack Browne February 18, 2010 Tubes Still Have Traction — Jack Browne February 11, 2010 Efficiency Is Everything — Jack Browne February 4, 2010 Modeling Helps Understand ICs — Jack Browne January 2010 Sniff Out The Best Security Solution For decades, generations of children have fantasized about what they could do if they had Superman’s x-ray vision. Now, privacy advocates are worried that airline and other screeners will soon have comparable capabilities. The call for the widespread use of full-body scanners in airports is a response to Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab’s attempt to blow up an airliner over Detroit this past December 25. The question is whether such scanners are actually the most effective... — Nancy Friedrich January 21, 2010 Army Shares Ideas Through MilBook — Jack Browne January 14, 2010 USB Test Gear Is Gaining Ground — Jack Browne January 7, 2010 LTE Should Fuel Mobile Device Fire — Jack Browne December 17, 2009 Where Are All The Antennas? — Jack Browne December 10, 2009 Handling Power Requires Imagination — Jack Browne December 3, 2009 The Quest For Low Phase Noise — Jack Browne November 19, 2009 Mobile Broadband Industry Seeks Talent — Jack Browne November 2009 Flexible Software For Hard Times Many designs within these pages begin in software. More specifically, high-frequency designers now rely on software simulation tools to predict the performance of a design, or calculate the dimensions of transmission lines in a microstrip matching network, or create a high-quality-factor (Q) notch in a bandreject filter. Their software tools have evolved from home-grown code to more complex software “environments” combining circuit, system, electromagnetic (EM) ... — Jack Browne November 12, 2009 Software Defining More Measurement Functions — Jack Browne November 5, 2009 Wireless Technology Driven To Distraction — Jack Browne October 22, 2009 Strong Showing At Washington AOC — Jack Browne October 2009 Firms Prepare For The Unthinkable For those who commute into New York City on a regular basis, thoughts of September 11, 2001 are never far away. The increased ever-present police presence at mass-transit facilities together with signs and announcements about “staying alert” serve as a constant reminder. Lest we forget, new plots are sometimes unearthed and made public. On September 11 of this year, for example, one group was allegedly planning to blow up a variety of NYC buildings. Because of the... — Nancy Friedrich October 15, 2009 Tubes Still Power Broadband Systems — Jack Browne |
