- European Microwave Week 2013 (EuMW 2013)
Nuremberg, Germany, October 9, 2013
AWR Corporation,
the innovation leader in high-frequency electronic design automation
(EDA), announces that NXP Semiconductor's ultra-wideband (UWB) Doherty
reference design is now AWR Microwave Office design environment ready.
The updated release features NXP’s BLF884P and BLF884PS transistors
for ultra-wideband Doherty power amplifiers operating from 470 to 806
MHz and a 70 W DVB-T UWB LDMOS reference design using NXP’s patent-pending
architecture capable of operating over an ultra-wideband spectrum in
the UHF broadcast spectrum.
Similarly, an updated NXP Semiconductor's
laterally-diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) Large Signal Device
model library is also now ready for use within AWR’s Microwave Office
software. It includes RF power transistors designed specifically for
the 2.45 GHz ISM frequency band, enabling RF energy to be used as a
clean, highly efficient and controllable heat source. Optimally matched
to the ISM band, the NXP BLF2425M and BLF25M series of RF power transistors
achieve best-in-class efficiencies in excess of 52% and offer a full
range of power levels between 12 and 350 W for use in home appliances
for cooking, heating and drying; precision medical devices and automotive
ignition.
Demonstration of the reference design and updated
library can be seen during EuMW at the AWR booth #126 and the NXP booth
#120.
