mmWave Integrated Circuits Die, Devices, and Modules
Front-End Beamforming ICs for Aerial Radar Electronically-Steerable Phased Array Antenna
Today’s mm-wave markets, such as 77GHz radar for Autonomous Vehicles, Fixed Wireless, and 5G networks rely heavily on deploying effective beamforming and steering functionalities using high gain phased array antennas with low side lobes.
The POLARISTM line of products enable players in these markets to build electronically-steerable antenna arrays using phase controller with 0°-360° phase-shifting capabilities using low DC bias voltage. In addition, Power Amplifiers and Low-Noise Amplifiers are also provided as stand-alone designs or integrated modules to offset losses inherited in mm-wave circuit designs.
