An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Cartesian feedback loop IC ideal for SDR systems from CML Microcircuits, which we summarised at the time by saying "CML Microcircuits has announced the upgrade of the CMX998, its highly integrated solution for transmitter linearisation that is ideal for portable devices.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Signal generator recreates tough RF environments from RF Engines: "RF Engines (RFEL) has developed a 32-channel radio-frequency (RF) signal generator that is designed to enable challenging RF environments to be recreated in laboratories to test RF equipment.".
In May 2009, we covered the news from Anritsu (UK) - take a look at USB power sensors employ dual-path architecture which says: "Anritsu has introduced the MA24108A/MA24118A microwave USB power sensors that provide accurate average power measurements from 10MHz to 18GHz over 60dB of dynamic range.".
Take a look also at the news release from Aeroflex, Aeroflex 3900 series supports DMR test option, as well as Study profiles handset and component markets from Forward Concepts, and Embedded antennas cover five and six bands from Antenova.
