“Be Very Careful”
By Tom Kurian, President & CEO, Renaissance Electronics Corp. |
“Be very careful” — a mother’s passing comment to her kids as they head outside. The words describe a way of living that is precise, accurate, and deliberate. It involves both forethought and a heightened sense of awareness. I wrote this to build awareness in companies involved in manufacturing and trading products for defense and Sat-Com programs.

 Another Sad Moment For the FCC
By Barry Manz
A significant number of rooftop antenna sites owned primarily by wireless carriers exceed FCC public and occupational exposure limits, make it impossible for workers to avoid standing in front of antennas, and are inadequately posted with warnings and barriers. Read More...

February 2013
The RFFM8500 provides a complete integrated solution in a single Front End Module (FEM) for WiFi 802.11a/n systems. The ultra small form factor and integrated matching minimizes the layout area in the customer’s application and greatly reduces the number of external components. It integrates a power amplifier, SP2T switch, LNA with bypass, and a power detector coupler for improved accuracy. Frequency range is 4.9 to 5.85 GHz.

•Directivity and VSWR Measurements
Return loss and VSWR measurements are complicated by the finite performance of the directional device used to measure the reflected power. The only accurate and convenient way to make return loss measurements is with a well matched high directivity directional coupler or bridge.
