RF & Microwave Design E-Newsletter provides RF engineers with timely and useful information on new products, technologies, and design techniques. It is also home to a lively, interactive forum for opinions on the latest design trends and challenges that make RF designers' jobs arguably some of the most challenging, and interesting, in the world.
Covering topics such as test and measurement, millimeter wave design, military electronics, low-power RF, and commercial wireless architectures, RF & Microwave Design E-Newsletter offers on-topic How To articles and information from designers around the world with the singular goal of providing a one-stop shop to learn more about what's available to create winning designs, the best ways to complete and verify them, and the key steps to prepare for future ones.
RF designers know that it takes skill, knowledge, and experience to get their jobs done, and they are often regarded as a special kind of magician. RF & Microwave Design E-Newsletter understands the unique challenges in reaching the elusive RF designer, and we aim to help you get the rabbit out of the hat every time.
