IMS 2023 roundup: connectors
Through photos and videos, EE World covers some of the active and passive components that RF and wireless engineers need to connect us all. The exhibit hall at the 2023 International Microwave Symposium featured connectors from Molex, Samtec, and SV Microwave, among others. See EE World’s IMS 2023 coverage of test equipment on Test & […]
IMS 2023 roundup: test equipment
Test equipment plays a major role in product development and production, which was apparent at IMS 2023. In the photos and videos below, you’ll get a taste of test developments at RF, mmWave, and sub-THz frequencies. This year, D-band (110 GHz to 170 GHz) seized a larger portion of the exhibit hall than in past […]
IMS 2023: keynote analyzes early undersea cables
In EE World videos from the 2023 International Microwave Symposium, engineers received a history lesson on early transatlantic cables through an analysis using today’s methods. Plus, a demonstration of a 1944 radio using a razor blade as a rectifier. Modern equipment provided an automated Morse code signal.
SoC generates RF test signals and analyzes results
The Apollo MxFE software-defined signal processing SoC from Analog Devices digitizes and generates analog signals with DSP in between. Applications cover aerospace & defense, instrumentation, and wireless communications. Digitizing high-speed signals, processing them, and creating responses typically requires separate ADCs, DACs, and DSPs or FPGAs. The Apollo MxFE system-on-chip (SoC) combines signal capture, creation, and […]
