Selecting the appropriate RF components is not just about locating components that are compatible. The reliability of a system operation is affected by frequency requirements, electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and installation constraints. For engineers dealing with small microwave assemblies, awareness of these aspects can prevent connection issues and unwarranted signal losses. What Technical Specifications Matter Most When Choosing a GPPO Connector for RF Systems? A GPPO connector must be suitable to the electrical and mechanical needs of the equipment it is used with. A connector that appears to be compatible can still cause performance problems when its specifications are not suitable...

Selection of the connector to use in a high-frequency PCB is not simply a matter of identifying a component that fits. The connection should have signal integrity, offer regular contact, and be appropriate to the physical layout of the board. An appropriate solderless PCB connector may be a convenient way to simplify RF testing and enable repeated measurements where the electrical and mechanical requirements are suitable to the application. What Makes a Solderless PCB Connector Suitable for High-Frequency Signal Transmission? Small variations in the signal path can cause measurement errors at high frequencies. A connector that is good at lower frequencies can...

Saving a few bucks in everything we do is everyone’s mentality these days. The same mindset is even repeated when dealing with antennas and coaxial cables. The truth is you can’t utilize the antenna without the cable, but why on earth should you go for the cheapest cables available? They say you get what you pay for. This doesn’t mean you have to spend a lot on your RF cables, but you should recognize that using cheap and problematic cables could render your expensive gadget useless. You should stop using cheap RF cables for your devices. Before getting deeper into...
