DAC And IMS Shows Offer An Early Peek At Critical Technologies Why do important conferences always seem to take place at the same time? For example, both the Design Automation Conference (www.dac.com/41st) and the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (www.ims2004.org) take... — John Blyler February 2004 Chip Enables Wireless-Internet Phone Design Since the early 1990s, telephone calls over the Internet have grown increasingly popular. Often, such calls are referred to as voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) or IP telephony. As old public-branch-exchange (PBX) systems are phased out, the rise... — John Blyler February 2004 The Future Of Wireless Is On Display At Wireless Systems 2004 The Wireless Systems 2004 Conference and Exhibition is right around the corner. From March 8 through 10, it will be held at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, Calif. This year, the show will testify to the robust nature of the wireless... — Cheryl Ajluni February 2004 Electromagnetic Software Eases Design The successful analysis of high-frequency electromagnetic (EM) circuits is critical to a whole host of wireless applications. Such analysis is needed for the design of microstrip and stripline circuits, planar spiral inductors, RFIC and MMIC... — John Blyler February 2004 Desktop Antenna Extends Wireless-Network Range Many users have felt frustrated by the limited range of their 2.4-GHz 802.11 wireless-local-area-network (WLAN) access points and bridges. Luckily, improvement options have begun to appear. Users could, for example, install a higher-gain antenna... — John Blyler February 2004 RF Transceiver Makes Zigbee-Product Entrance Interest is steadily building around the new low-data-rate wireless standard known as IEEE 802.15.4. Among this connectivity standard's applications is the creation of a wireless control web for building automation, industrial monitoring-controlling... — John Blyler February 2004 CMOS Image Sensors Deliver High Quality The pictures that are generated by digital still cameras are only as good as the resolution of their image sensors. The growing popularity of digital cameras and video recorders attests to these devices' ever-improving picture quality. One company... — John Blyler February 2004 RF Probe Makes High-Frequency Testing Easier Wireless systems continue to migrate to higher and higher frequency bands. They hope to utilize uncrowned spectrums and larger data bandwidths. When it comes to testing, however, these increasingly high-frequency product components require very... — John Blyler February 2004 DUC And Enhanced FEC Arrive At The FPGA Core As major analysts predicted, FPGAs are continuing to expand into traditional ASIC and DSP markets. To take advantage of this growth, Xilinx is now offering a digital-upconverter (DUC) LogicCore module along with enhanced forward-error-correction... — John Blyler February 2004 Platform Device Boosts ARM-9 CPU Development The ARM-7 CPU has remained the workhorse of most mobile wireless devices. Now, it's easier to develop with the more powerful ARM-9 processor, thanks to Fujitsu Microelectronics America's Multi-CPU Evaluation Device. Named the MB87Q1100, this device... — John Blyler June 2003 Realize The Wireless Connectivity Vision Wireless connectivity continues to grow. It promises to eradicate the information barriers of the wired world. Yet a big gap still exists between today's wireless technology and tomorrow's vision of ubiquitous information that's available anytime,... — Sharad Malik January/February 2003 Schedule At A Glance > KEYNOTES AND PANEL DISCUSSIONS Tuesday, February 25 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM KEYNOTE ADDRESS Gadi Singer, Vice President, Wireless Communications and Computing Group, and General Manager, PCA... — Cheryl Ajluni January/February 2003 The Future Of Computing And Communications Takes Center Stage At Wireless Systems 2003 > Imagine a world in which your refrigerator talks to your television. Your car talks to your home's central-cooling system, the garage-door opener, and the coffeepot. Now, imagine that the computing and communications spaces have converged into one... — Cheryl Ajluni January/February 2003 Bluetooth Module Claims To Be World’s Smallest > In an effort to provide designers with more space for less money, Murata's Blue Module has squeezed itself into 9.8 × 9.6 × 1.8 mm. This full Host Controller Interface (HCI) -level module integrates active devices like ICs as well as... — Staff January/February 2003 SiGe Transistors Minimize Cost > Two new versions of the 5-GHz NPN silicon-germanium (SiGe) series of transistors are available from NEC. Best of all, they deliver the same low noise and low-current performance of gallium-arsenide (GaAs) at a greatly reduced cost. Both of these... — Staff January/February 2003 EMI Shielding Is A Snap > A new board-level, multi-cavity shielding product has recently come to market with promises of excellent protection against electromagnetic interference. Referred to as snapSHOT, this metallized, thermoformed EMI plastic shield is easy to install... — Staff January/February 2003 MCM Converters Shrink In Size And Cost > A family of surface-mount downconverter modules has hit the streets to serve current and next-generation mobile-infrastructure base-station applications. It promises small size and increased performance at a price that is lower than today's... — Staff January/February 2003 Driver Amplifiers Improve Power Efficiency > The first 11 high-performance driver amplifiers in a new family have arrived. Each has been designed to improve gain linearity and power-added efficiency (PAE) for high-power-amplifier (HPA) signal conditioning/transmit circuits and systems. They... — Staff January/February 2003 RF System-On-A-Chip Is An Industry First > A single-chip 300-to-1000-MHz CMOS RF transceiver and microcontroller IC is now available. Dubbed the CC1010 chip, this device was spawned from the integration of the CMOS CC1000 RF transceiver and the 8051 microcontroller core—with its... — Staff January/February 2003 High-Clock-Speed DDSs Lower Power Dissipation > A portfolio of radio-frequency ICs (RFICs) has been expanded to welcome a new family of 14-b direct digital synthesizers (DDSs). DDS is the technique used for digitally creating and manipulating sine waves—or other continuous wave... — Staff  prev. page
