A short tutorial to simulate your Kicad PCBs in openEMS using Gerber2EMS
OpenEMS, an open-source tool for simulating electromagnetic structures, has been a valuable resource for the scientific community for some time. Its capabilities continue to expand, thanks to ongoing contributions that add new functionalities. While...
PCB layout of the ADL5801 RF mixer
I show the process of designing a RF PCB for ADL5801 in Altium Designer. The mixer is part of a multi-channel RF front-end.
Easy to use AD9833 C Library
Hey there, fellow electronics enthusiasts! If you’ve ever tinkered with the signal generation, you’ve likely come across the AD9833 waveform generator chip. But did you know that this little gem can do so much...
Setup Vitis HLS 2022.2 and OpenCV on Windows 11 OS
Primarily, there is plenty of support to operate Vitis HLS and OpenCV on the Linux environment. This is mainly because of the ease of use on Linux. On Windows operating system, however, the story...
Noise Figure measurement with TinySA Ultra
In an article I wrote long time ago, I measured the noise figure of an amplifier using only a spectrum analyzer. The method I used was relatively simple but it took some mathematical understanding...
Using the Signal Integrity tool in Altium Designer – Part 2
In part 1 of the article series, We learnt how to set up our design for performing signal integrity analysis using Altium’s in-built Signal Integrity tool. The process turned out to be quite simple...
Using the Signal Integrity tool in Altium Designer – Part 1
Our designs are becoming faster to serve our ever-growing demands from machines. Speed brings more complexity to the design. The usual slow transitions from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0 become so fast...
Quickly designing a 23cm Hairpin filter in ADS
A 23cm hairpin filter operates around the 1.296GHz amateur radio band. The frequency being low enough allows us to fabricate it on a low cost FR4 substrate. It operates as a bandpass filter. There...
LM2731 boost converter in Altium Designer – From schematic to PCB
In this quick article, I show step by step process of drawing a boost converter schematic and finally ending up with a PCB layout. All of it done on Altium designer using Altium’s own...
