Although most modern RF amplifiers have a high voltage device rating against impedance mismatch, special care is needed to prevent impedance mismatch. To avoid impedance mismatch of the power amplifier, often an attenuator is also recommended to be connected between the output of the power amplifier and the flying probe.

To provide in-depth coverage of ESD testing methods, in this article, we look at another type of ESD testing based on the “Human Body Model” (HBM) method of ESD testing.

Antennas come in all shapes and sizes and can be used for both radiating and receiving. Selecting a good receiving antenna for emissions testing is not difficult if you take some necessary items into account.

This tutorial article is a part of the three-article series devoted to the frequency-domain analysis of a lossless transmission line.

Nowadays in the semiconductors industry, the bipolar transistor is massively used for various functions in modern integrated circuits (ICs) products.

Read a quick guide to understanding the considerations of the main label and symbol format options available to you, including pros and cons, and whether they meet the U.S. ANSI Z535.4 standards, the international ISO 3864-2 standards, or both standards.

A new consortium will investigate problems associated with interference, jamming, and multi-path activity affecting the integrity of GNSS applications.

This article describes a loss-less impedance matching technique that does not require the use of discrete components but instead uses cables or printed circuit board (PCB) traces, i.e., distributed elements or transmission lines.

Preamplifiers or otherwise called Low-Noise Amplifiers (LNA), are commonly used for Radiated emissions (RE)...

This article introduces a concept of a phasor which is extensively used in several EMC topics including electromagnetic waves, antennas, and transmission lines.
