As many a child has realized during a fancy dinner, crystal glasses make a ringing noise when a bored diner runs a wet finger around the rim. Similarly to blowing into a beer bottle, the act usually only produces one note, but with a little strategy, you can make a whole song. These special crystal wine glasses from UncommonGoods have markings on them to show different notes. Simply pour enough wine (or grape juice) to the indicated lines to produce the right notes.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored 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.
