The digital car is no longer a concept of the future. Automotive connectivity — or “connected car” applications — have now reached critical demand. Qorvo high-performance RF products can be found in many automobile solutions, from safety-related systems such as sensors, radar and keyless devices, to infotainment and telematics, streaming audio and satellite radio. Qorvo’s…
HA.21.A – 868MHz Embedded Helical Monopole Antenna The HA.21 is an omni-directional quarter-wave monopole helical antenna operating in the unlicensed ISM bands at 868MHz favoured in the EU. This extremely small embedded antenna is deceptively stable and is an ideal choice for ISM/LPWA applications such as Smart Metering, Smart Security Systems and Remote Asset Monitoring. Best results can be seen when used…
By Rich Quinnell – Courtesy of www.eetimes.com SEATTLE—While a solid performer in the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) industry, chip maker u-blox is not top of mind when discussing innovation. In fact, they only recently moved up to third-place position in market rankings, according to a recent report from ABI Research. But that perception may change with…
Read more about the latest developments in NB‑IoT. Narrowband IoT (NB‑IoT) is a new way of communicating with “things” that require small amounts of data, over long periods, in hard to reach places. What is Narrowband IoT? Narrowband IoT (NB‑IoT) is a Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) technology that works virtually anywhere. It connects devices…

Thin can be a good thing for high-frequency circuit laminate materials. As this ROG Blog detailed some years ago (see “Thinner Materials Help Target Higher Frequencies,” http://mwexpert.typepad.com/rog_blog/2010/11/thinner-materials-help-target-higher-frequencies.html), thinner printed-circuit-board (PCB) laminates offer many electrical benefits as well as mechanical advantages compared to thicker circuit materials, especially at higher frequencies reaching into millimeter-wave bands. For applications where…
