Matter-Compliant Wireless SoCs Operate on Multiple Bands

2 weeks ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

The Overview: Wi-Fi 7 SoCs Tailored for IoT ApplicationsA family of Wi-Fi 7 SoCs combines low-power operation, ultra-low latency, and high peak data rates to fuel IoT applications across a broad spectrum of consumer, commercial, and automotive applications.
UWB Transceiver IC Blows Away Bluetooth on Wireless Data Throughput

3 weeks ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

I am Executive Editor of Microwaves & RF, an all-digital publication that broadly covers all aspects of wireless communications. More particularly, we're keeping a close eye on technologies in the consumer-oriented 5G, 6G, IoT, M2M, and V2X markets, in which much of the wireless market's growth will occur in this decade and beyond. I work with a great team of editors to provide engineers, developers, and technical managers with interesting and useful articles and videos on a regular basis.
Benchtop RF Switch Matrix Sports Solid-State, Full-Crossbar Architecture

3 weeks ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

A well-known specialist engineering company, European Engineering Consultancy Ltd. (EECL), is branching out into a suite of off-the-shelf products to serve numerous use cases for RF engineers. First out of the box comes the benchtop RF Switch Matrix, a high-speed, USB- and Ethernet-controlled full-crossbar unit. The XSM-019-2816-10G/30G-100 is tailored for complex test setups in which RF signals must be dynamically routed across multiple devices.
LiDAR Depth Sensor Touted as World’s Smallest and Lightest

3 weeks ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

Sony’s AS-DT1 direct-time-of-flight LiDAR depth sensor, said to be the world’s smallest and lightest device of its kind, offers fast, accurate measurements, distance resolution, and measuring range. At just 29 × 29 × 31 mm (roughly 1.14 in. wide × 1.14 in. tall × 1.22 in. deep, excluding protrusions), and weighing only 50 g (about 1.76 oz.), the AS-DT1 leverages miniaturization and optical-lens technologies from Sony's machine-vision industrial cameras.
Power-Switching ICs Deliver High Efficiency Under Light Loads

1 month ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

At APEC 2025, Power Integrations debuted its TinySwitch-5, extending the output power of the integrated off-line switcher ICs to 175 W. The new TinySwitch-5 achieves up to 92% efficiency using basic diode rectification and optocoupler feedback. Power Integrations’s TinySwitch ICs are intended for use in bias and auxiliary power supplies in appliance, computing, communications, industrial, and medical applications.
Current Transducers Surpass IEEE 1451 Measurement Reporting Standards

1 month ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

With a new Transducer Electronic Datasheet (TEDS) functionality built into its current-sense transducers, Danisense hopes to help engineers streamline lab testing procedures. The TEDS functionality offers easier setup and improves measurement accuracy in laboratory environments. Test engineers looking for an augmented dataset from current-sense transducers will find Danisense’s TEDS functionality fits the bill.
Premier Magnetics' Chokes Build Differential- and Common-Mode Attenuation Into a Single Device

1 month ago | mwrf.com | David Maliniak

To launch its new CM Guard Series of chokes, Premier Magnetics rolled out the PM-CMCX5 Series as the initial offering. The CM Guard Series implements integrated magnetics technology to build common-mode (CM) and differential-mode (DM) attenuation into a single device. Features include strong 5-kV winding-to-winding insulation, a wide operating temperature range of –60 to 155°C, and low-capacitive coupling to the core.
