The coaxial cable is among the most commonly used transmission lines with optimal broadband performance for applications well into the W-band. The use cases for coaxial cable assemblies are numerous and varied in nature. This whitepaper dives into some of the basics of coaxial cables, their various performance parameters, and the constructional variants within the cable and connector heads....
The Difference Between RF Mixers and RF Frequency Multiplier/Dividers
Frequency upconversion/downconversion and frequency multiplication/division is a critical feature of many RF circuits. The basis for superheterodyne communications is the generation of a baseband or intermediate frequency (IF) signal and the use of upconversion to achieve the RF frequency for transmission and the reverse with downconversion for reception. However, upconversion/downconversion...
