International Microwave Symposium (IMS)

IMS 2026

Visit us at this year’s International Microwave Symposium (IMS) at the Merino Convention Center, Boston, MA. Stop by our Booth 19070 to explore RF technologies enabling the next generation of aerospace, defense, satellite communications and wireless systems.

We will showcase solutions across the entire RF signal chain, including:

  • High-power GaN on SiC amplifiers
  • High-sensitivity GaAs Low-Noise Amplifiers (LNAs)
  • Precision oscillators and Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillators (OCXOs) for ultra-low-noise timing
  • SAW filters and RF diodes for signal conditioning

Title Description
GaN on SiC MMIC Power Amplifiers Explore high-power Gallium Nitride (GaN) on SiC Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs) that are optimized for SATCOM, aerospace and defense with bare-die power amplifiers delivering > 20 dB gain and up to 70W power output in the X-band, Ku-band and Ka-band with high efficiency.
Packaged GaN on SiC MMIC Power Amplifiers See our rugged, thermally efficient GaN on SiC solutions in compact QFN packages. These power amplifiers deliver high output power with high-efficiency performance.
Packaged GaAs MMIC Low-Noise Amplifiers Discover packaged Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) low-noise amplifiers with ultra-low noise figure of 1.5 dB. These DC to 26 GHz low-noise amplifiers offer industry-leading sensitivity in a compact form factor and are excellent for radar, communications and military applications.
Packaged GaAs MMIC Distributed Power Amplifiers Explore our broadband distributed power amplifiers that support DC to 24 GHz with flat gain, high linearity and high output power for instrumentation, radar, SATCOM and Electronic Warfare (EW) systems.
Packaged GaAs MMIC Prescalers and Frequency Detectors Explore frequency dividers and phase frequency detectors in compact MMIC form. Operating up to 20 GHz, these parts are building blocks for high-performance Phased Lock Loops (PLLs) and low-jitter clocks.
Voltage-Controlled SAW Oscillators (VCSOs) Discover our VCSOs deliver ultra-low phase noise and tight frequency stability. These oscillators are great for radar, industrial and timing-critical RF designs, for up to 3.2 GHz.
Performance SAW Solutions Explore our discrete and integrated SAW filters with sharp selectivity and low loss. Switched SAW filter banks enable more than 50% board space reduction over discrete solutions with equivalent performance. Packaged SAW filters feature massive footprint reduction in medical, communications, GNSS, industrial and military applications.
53100a Phase Noise Test Set The 53100A measures the amplitude, phase and frequency stability of high-performance RF sources. It tells you everything you need to know about the stability characteristics of your devices at timescales ranging from femtoseconds to days. The 53100A can be used on a bench-top or embedded into rackmount Automated Test Equipment (ATE) systems. Its small form factor and industry-leading measurement speed makes this test set versatile for multiple applications.
Embedded Atomic Clock For applications requiring the highest degree of free-running frequency and timing accuracy, we provide a broad portfolio of both laboratory-grade system atomic clocks and small PCB-mountable atomic oscillators based on atomic resonance techniques. Our sophisticated frequency and timing solutions can be used in a variety of applications, from secure network timing to autonomous atomic clock systems.
Ultra-Low Phase Global Navigation Satellite System Disciplined Oscillator (GNSSDO) Speak with our experts about the Ultra-Low Phase Noise Oscillators designed to provide high performance Ultra-Low Phase Noise (ULPN) performance in application like Radar, Test & Measurement and SATCOM applications. These products provide excellent phase noise performance from -115 dBc/Hz at 1Hz offset to -175dBc/Hz noise floor. These ULPN Oscillators are available as TCXO, OCXO and PPS/GNSS Disciplined Module type products.
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Disciplined Oscillators Our GNSS Disciplined Oscillator (GNSSDO) modules combine high-performance oscillators and our proprietary holdover, aging and environmental correction algorithms into a small-form-factor PNT system. Our flexible GNSSDOs and GPSDOs can be integrated as a stand-alone system or as the critical PNT subsystem within a larger design. These modules are excellent options for defense applications, 5G base stations, digital audio broadcasts and general timing and instrumentation applications.

2026 Speaking Session

RF Signal Chain Solutions Revolutionizing Satellite Communications, 5G, Aerospace and Defense - Baljit Chandhoke, Senior Technical Staff Engineer

This MicroApps Seminar will cover RF Signal Chain solutions to optimize system designs for 5G, SatCom, aerospace and defense applications. RF systems moving to higher-order modulation schemes, such as 64-, 128- and 256- Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM), are delivering high linearity and efficiency in denser environments with stringent Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). Participants will learn the pivotal role of GaN on SiC in providing the best figure of merit for the power amplifier in terms of linear output power with the benefit of Size, Weight and Power-Cost (SWaP-C). Tradeoffs in analog, digital, hybrid and metamaterial beamforming technologies, along with RF signal chain solutions for more compelling next-generation products in key markets will also be covered.
