Practical RF PCB Design

One of the difficult areas in Electronic Product Design is RF sub-system or Communication Products. A Communications Product Developer has to get Specialized Support from experts in that field.

Plextek from UK is one such firm with such expertise and Experience. Their Technical Information Section gives an insight of important aspects in wireless communication design. Read these first, The Basics of RF System Design, Oscillator Design and Practical RF PCB Design.

Printed Circuit Board Design Guide

rf-pcb-design-trompeter.

This is an useful reference for PCB design and RF. Here it is about “PCB Mounted RF Connectors”. Here you see a important rule “the first rule of connectors is that the best connector is no connector at all…”. In RF the connectors and their placement needs extra care. At a frequency of 1 GHz, a short PCB track can become an Antenna !

The glue/interface Logic families are many. TTL and CMOS is what we all know. TTL is made of the trusted NPN and PNP transistors. CMOS logic is made of Mosfets/FET types. Making a Logical Choice in Speed-n-Power CD40XX and Intersil chips were the first CMOS types of IC that became popular. The former were versatile Building Blocks and the Latter created what i would call Flexible Advanced Public ASICs. CMOS are low power consumption and TTL are nice Speed. In intel chips you could see the transition at 8031 to 80C31, a CMOS with good speed. Now its CMOS everywhere. [Read More ....]

Low Voltage AC LED Reference Design Board

ON Semiconductor has application notes on how to harness the LED lighting technology, this enables you to design your LED based products like Flashlight and LED Ballasts for Home/Office Lighting. The long term savings on energy cost not only offsets the Initial Investment on LED Lighting but also cuts your expense on a long term for energy and replacement costs. LED Lighting solutions are very reliable, but is is important to integrate it with high quality engineered power electronics. So a Customer/Consumer has to choose quality tested and standardized products and be very shrewd in purchase decisions. Low Voltage AC [Read More ....]
