Air core inductors exhibit high Q, maintain a constant inductance value regardless of current, and can be tuned to specific inductance values by manipulating the distance between coil windings. They ...

There are certain design guidelines for PCBs that don’t make a lot of sense, and practices that seem excessive and unnecessary. Often these are motivated by the black magic that is RF transmission.

In this article, we point out some important facts in designing RF application PCB boards. Of course there are many other facts that are not listed below but for the beginners these may be enough for ...

[Hans Rosenberg] knows a thing or two about RF PCB design and has provided a three-part four-part video demonstration of some solid rules of thumb. We will cover the first part here and leave the ...

The IoT has increased the demand for good radio frequency (RF) design practices from the mains, to wall outlet power, all the way to the antenna. With several IoT standards employed today, constraint ...

Main challenges facing RF designers. Design issues regarding PCBs, 5G, and regulations. Difficulties in finding RF engineering talent. Having been involved in developing products in virtually every ...
