X-Microwave and Peregrine colaborate on modular design and prototyping
X-Microwave’s building-block system simplifies the modular design process and enables RF engineers to easily simulate and prototype RF and microwave circuits. To kick off this relationship, 16 Peregrine products are being added to the X-Microwave system as drop-in X-MWblock™ components.
At the heart of X-Microwave’s system is an X-MWblock portfolio of hundreds of physically compatible, drop-in or drop-on components. These components are highly characterized and modeled with X-Parameters and S-Parameters at the system block level. To create a modular design, X-Microwave provides a free, non-linear online simulation tool that leverages Keysight’s Genesys Spectrasys engine. After simulation, X-MWblock drop-in components are used to prototype systems through X-Microwave’s innovative prototype station for testing, aligning and configuring integrated microwave assemblies up to 50 GHz. Finally, the same X-MWblock components can be moved from the prototype station directly to machined housings for production hardware, eliminating the need for custom layouts.
“From a concept to final production hardware, X-Microwave streamlines the complete design process,” says John Richardson, president and CEO at X-Microwave. “Peregrine’s impressive RF product portfolio is an important addition to the X-Microwave building-block system. Peregrine is recognized as a leading RF manufacturer, and our users will benefit from the ability to drop in Peregrine’s products into their X-Microwave-based modular designs.”
The Peregrine products now available in the X-Microwave system include RF switches, digital step attenuators, tuning control switches, power limiters and monolithic phase and amplitude controllers.
