Modelithics has released a free sample model library for surface-mount capacitor, inductor, and resistor component representation using the Virtuoso Spectre Circuit Simulator from Cadence. The ...

Signals operating in the radio frequency (RF) realm between 3 kHz to 300 GHz are an inherent part of processing by circuit components within and outside an IC. Linear characteristics of RF circuits ...

What is an RF detector? An RF detector monitors or samples the output of an RF circuit and develops a dc output voltage proportional to the power at that point. What do you do with an RF detector? RF ...

Innovation is everywhere around us. From high-performance computing, communications, autonomous driving, and the Internet of Things (figure 1), each segment has led to a rapid increase in design ...

SPICE has been the mainstay tool for analog and RF designers for over 25 years. During that time, analog- and RF-circuit complexity has grown by several orders of magnitude while circuit geometries ...

Impedance matching is easy if you know the basics. Download the eBook to find out how. During impedance matching, a specific electronic load (R L) is made to match a generator output impedance (R g) ...
