The excellent phase noise exhibited in ADI’s latest generation of high speed DACs enables size, weight, power/performance, and cost benefits in next-generation low phase noise, fast hopping agile RF/microwave synthesizers. To meet the most demanding phase noise system requirements, the suggested fixed clock implementation is a DRO locked using an analog PLL. 

Antenna tuners in smartphones must be able to withstand ESD at every stage from device manufacturing to consumer use. However, confusion exists about the level of ESD protection required at each stage.

This application note describes the measurement challenges of 5G NR and makes clear the benefits of using a monitoring receiver for measuring 5G signals.

In part 10 of this Filter Basics Series, we discuss how resonators function as a microwave device and dive deeper into specifications for ceramic coaxial and dielectric resonators specifically.
