Switches, digital and analog attenuators, and limiters each have unique functions that require proper device selection. The design difficulty lies within the parametric translation from diode ...

We are used to microwave receivers requiring complex chipsets and exacting PCB layouts, but as [CHZ-soft] has shown, it does not always have to be that way. With nothing more complex than a germanium ...

Last week we covered diodes, specifically thermionic and PN junction diodes. But oh, there are more; and they’re special! One of the the most commonly used ‘specialty’ diode would have to be the metal ...

This diode is a gallium arsenide microwave mixer diode designed and built at TI about 1964 for KU band operation. It is an example of the earliest available semiconductor microwave devices. With the ...

ALLEN, TEXAS—On-demand microwave and RF components supplier Fairview Microwave is rolling out a waveguide Gunn oscillator that provides a source of microwave power with frequency and power stability ...

Fairview Microwave Inc. recently released a full line of coaxial-packaged tunnel diode detectors that are are well-suited for proof-of-concept and prototype applications. Such application areas ...
