In recent years we have begun to see references to “RF” CMOS processes and to “RF” models for those processes. This article will explore what the real meanings of such “RF” designations are, and what ...

Today Infineon Technologies announced it is shipping in volume the world’s first RF switches that are manufactured in a CMOS-based process on silicon wafers and offer the equivalent performance of RF ...

If the Wireless LAN market is still growing, Wireless LAN solutions are already in a cost reduction phase. Conceiving WLAN solutions nowadays requires a high-level approach where the final chipset may ...

We will describe a potential design of a radio-frequency system-on-chip that is backward-compatible with a 60- and 5-GHz wireless local- (or personal)-area network system. The SoC can support a ...

Peregrine Semiconductor has introduced its first reconfigurable RF front end for 4G LTE wireless platform developments for global markets. “To support over 40 frequency bands and a more than ...

Several foundries are expanding their fab capacities for RF SOI processes amid huge demand and shortages of this technology for smartphones. A number of foundries are increasing their 200mm RF SOI fab ...

The next-generation 4G wireless standard known as long-term evolution (LTE) presents some new and difficult design choices for OEMs. One of the more difficult choices involves the less glamorous, but ...

Designers creating the analog/RF portion of system-on-chip designs need considerable additional support from the foundry. Take one simple component, the inductor, to illustrate the depth of these ...

Tower Semiconductor announced its participation in the International Microwave Symposium (IMS) 2025, where it will showcase its advanced RF technology and present a jointly developed white paper with ...

Analog Devices has introduced an RF front-end combining four DACs and four ADCs with a 1.2GHz channel bandwidth. “AD9081 allows manufacturers to install multi-band radios in the same footprint as ...
