Thermistors make good choices as temperature sensors when you need fine resolution over a relatively small temperature span. Unfortunately, a thermistor's resistance-temperature curve has a nonlinear ...

Modern high-performance transmitters require accurate monitoring of RF power, because most cellular standards depend on strict power- transmission levels to maintain an effective network. Regulation ...

Over the years, tutorials have appeared in EMC journals explaining how to estimate the power required from a power amplifier intended for use in an RF immunity test system. Little material, if any, ...
