The DVB-S2 standard offers benefits compared to the previous-generation DVB-S standard, while DVB-S2X provides additional technologies and features for the core applications of...
Oven-controlled and temperature-compensated crystal oscillators seem to be similar heat-related devices, but they have distinct characteristics and applications.
These abbreviations stand for two completely different things—antennas and semiconductors—although surprisingly some similarities exist between the two.
As designers consider the performance tradeoffs between direct-conversion and superheterodyne implementations, a newer direct RF-sampling technique has entered the fray.
This article, the first in a two-part series, examines various receiver implementations along with the characteristics that describe receiver performance.
Components based on SAW and BAW technology both employ acoustic waves but in different ways and with different performance levels, especially at higher frequencies.
A growing number of PXI/PXIe modular RF/microwave test instruments provide the measurement capabilities and performance levels once possible only with benchtop instruments.
