Altera’s new Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit, Stratix® IV GX Edition, enables a thorough evaluation of the transceiver’s interoperability and SERDES signal integrity. This 8-minute video demonstrates the performance differences between 3-inch and 40-inch board traces and how pre-emphasis dramatically improves signal quality. You’ll also learn what a “bit-error ratio” is and why it’s important as well as how to monitor power consumption through the kit’s GUI.
 Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real WorldSponsored by Keysight Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems. |
