1. Top 7 Ways to Create a Quadrature (90˚) Phase Shift We’ve talked a lot about IQ mixers in the last few posts, about their theoretical underpinnings and applications as a phase detector and [...]
This is part 2 of this series. Part 1, Applications, is available here. In this article we discuss amplifier figures of merit, and along the way you will hopefully develop an intuition for how to [...]
by Doug Jorgesen In a recent tech note, we summarized 4 Ways to Implement a High Isolation Duplexer for a Transceiver in the specific case where the transmit and receive signals are separated in [...]
by Robert Maurer AMM-6702UC5 offers positive only, +5V operation of the AMM-6702UC amplifier Supply voltage suppression of 100 dB The voltage rectifier circuit and BoM are shown below so [...]
by Jacob Trevithick Phase noise is critical to systems, like Electronic Warfare and 5G Communications, requiring precise frequency stability. Oscillators are typically the determining factor in [...]
by Harley Berman Scattering parameters, also known as s-parameters, are used to characterize the behavior of an RF component to varying input stimuli. With s-parameters, we can obtain [...]
by Douglas Grosch Quadrature hybrids are useful for countless applications, including balanced amplifiers, IQ/IR/SSB mixers, reflectionless filters, and reflective phase shifters. Marki [...]
