What made you select the Marki Microwave ADM-8536PSM LNA? I chose Marki Microwave’s ADM-8536PSM because it is the industry’s smallest 2-20GHz high linearity, low noise amplifier. It’s the entire LNA solution, complete with an internal biasing network, DC blocking, and RF matching, all in a tiny, DFN-style package. Add in the low power consumption, the ADM-8536PSM is the ideal choice for reducing SWaP. I also want to highlight this part as a reflection of Marki’s push to expand their selection of offerings well past their industry-renowned mixers. For the past couple of years, Marki has been extensively growing their product…

An entire industry perked up its ears when Qorvo announced QSPICE™ in July 2023, and for good reason. This free circuit simulation software is built specifically to serve analog and power designers and is poised to save companies countless hours and thousands of dollars by reducing design time. How did Qorvo come to offer their own flavor of the popular SPICE simulation tool, and what does this mean for design engineers? This article discusses the history of SPICE, how QSPICE supports Qorvo’s growing silicon carbide (SiC) power management portfolio, and the advantages of SiC technology. First, let’s start with a little…

What made you select the Nuvotronics wideband 90-degree hybrid coupler family? How are these products different from others on the market? My August Expert Product Pick is a family of three products which I believe are going to prove invaluable to those designing next generation electromagnetic warfare (EW) and electronic countermeasure (ECM) systems. Cubic Nuvotronics has recently released three wideband 90-degree hybrid couplers: the PSC18H17S 2–18 GHz, PSC18H07S 6–18 GHz, and the PSC50H08S 18–50 GHz devices. All exhibit excellent electrical characteristics in small form factor packages utilizing Nuvotronics’ Polystrata® additive manufacturing technology. Polystrata devices are fabricated in copper and utilize…
What made you select MRC Component’s SoftProtector® Cores to feature? How does the product family differentiate from others/what value does it offer? MRC Components SoftProtector® Cores are highly effective at mitigating harmful interference currents caused by modern high-power frequency converter operated systems, especially those operating at very high switching frequencies.
