Crystek has introduced a new VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) that operates from 183 to 219 MHz and has a control voltage range of 0.5V -4.5V. Model CVCO55FL-0183-0219 features a typical phase noise of -123dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and has excellent linearity. Typical output power is +8.5dBm.

AVX Corporation has announced a new series of Schottky barrier rectifier diodes uniquely packaged as lead-less chips. The new lead-less diodes’ top-bottom symmetry enables better heat transfer and current handling than SOD devices, as well as fewer mounting problems.

D.L.S. Electronic Systems has announced they are offering Qi pre-compliance and formal certification as of December 15, 2012. They are one of only two North American laboratories participating in the Qi Compliance Program.

Aeroflex has announced its new 5860 multi-strategy test system that combines analog in-circuit test and functional test capabilities in a compact, floor-standing system. This system is the first Aeroflex ATE (Automated Test Equipment) product incorporating a Virginia Panel – the industry-standard mass interconnect interface suitable for all production test requirements.

Eastern OptX has announced the commercial availability of the Series 7000 Multi-Radio Channel Replicator. This multi-radio test system replicates the propagation path of real-world applications and brings realistic outdoor test ranges into the test laboratory while reducing – and in some cases – completely eliminating time-consuming and expensive outdoor testing.

IQD Frequency Products announced their IQOV-90 series high stability low phase noise OCXOs now encompasses the full industrial temperature range standard of -40 to 85°C.

Aeroflex has announced a new test system based on its PXI 3000 series modular instrumentation to offer measurements over a 160 MHz bandwidth at operating frequencies up to 6 GHz.

IQD Frequency Products has introduced a new crystal clock oscillator offering two key features – low phase noise and low current consumption. The CFPS-115 is available at any frequency between 26 to 44 MHz and offers a standard 45/55% duty cycle HCMOS output.

Rohde & Schwarz has announced new software for their high-performance oscilloscopes that is ideal for automated USB 2.0 compliance tests.  The software offers scenarios for testing USB 2.0 devices (DUT) when functioning as a device, host or hub.

ETS-Lindgren has announced the newest member of its family of double ridged waveguide horn antennas. Model 3116C sweeps from 10 to 40 GHz without stopping for band breaks, making it ideal for automated testing. The antenna accepts up to 20 watts of continuous input power and exhibits high gain and low VSWR.
