High Frequency Electronics

As a valued Modelithics Cooperative MVP, High Frequency Electronics collaborates with Modelithics to promote industry knowledge, share technical insights, and connect the RF and microwave engineering community with valuable resources that support design innovation and success.

Our target audience includes engineers, managers, educators and other technical personnel involved in the design and development of products and technologies at high frequencies and high speeds. Our coverage of this area of engineering includes all possible applications, which can change rapidly as new, creative ideas are developed into products.

News and Resources

Many of these articles walk a complete design from simulation to hardware, including a two-part transmitter case study that carries a harmonic filter and power amplifier to first-pass success. The archive spans nearly two decades.
