A lot of engineers and technicians who visit RF Cafe design
and/or service battery-operated equipment like radios, wearable devices, games and toys, tools,
etc. With battery technology advancing quickly, it is important to keep abreast of cell
chemistry, packaging, and charge / discharge characteristics. An article by Bob Zollo introduces
some of the concepts. Another article introduces yet another filter design approach. After
nearly four decades in electronics, I am constantly amazed that there are areas of filter
design that have not yet been covered. Items move onto and off of all homepages quickly, so
even if you visit Microwave & RF, Microwave Journal, Microwave Product
Digest, High Frequency Electronics, et al, regularly, you might have missed
something in the list below.
Here is a complete list of all featured
RF &
