ABC's of RF Components
Our MREs contour technical presentations covering many of the RF & Microwave components and/or sub-systems. The ABC's
of RF Components is our entry level presentation to get your team up to speed quickly on the basics of RF
Active & Passive Components. It provides an understanding of tradeoffs that confront them on a daily basis,
what is allowable and what is not, options and tolerancing Pro's and Con's. Contact your Acct MRE and
schedule a presentation, the outline can be contoured to meet the needs or your team and can last one hour or an afternoon. Read

Antenna Design 101
The custom design and use of all passive devices are the only way to optimize your RF circuits,
so picking a passive device off the shelf will only get you in the ballpark, not fully peaked
as need be. Antennas are more critical to system performance than all of the other signal chain
building blocks. It is imperative that you learn as much as you can about their design and
construction of your antenna to optimize your Transmitter and/or Receiver operation. Read

Ferrite Circulator - Isolator Design 101
RF Ferrite Circulators and Isolators are passive devices that provide predicted isolation between any number of ports.
Restricted to the physics of magnetic attraction, these devices play an important part of many
transmission technics in amplifiers and their associated RF circuitry. This tutorial provides an understanding of the best
approach to achieving system level performance while providing necessary tradeoffs of single or multiple junction devices in your system. Read

Low Noise Amplifier Design 101
The LNA has to be able to keep first stage noise parameters in check or the results will be disastrous.
Understanding the inter-play between first to second stage matching and their effects on each other
is critical. This tutorial will provide that understanding and assist you in your design efforts,
making sure it is right the first time. Read

Magnetics Design 101
Not a magnetic guru - not many are left in our industry. This tutorial will get you up to speed quickly and without all the distrations
that you will experience on your own. This is the stuff your professor forgot to teach you in the lab. Read

SAR Testing
This topic has more coverage by the media than any other topic, yet it is also the most misunderstood. This paper by John Lofgren presents a quick and accurate understanding
of allowable exposure and consequences that effect the user. Read
