RF Featured Applications

RF Featured Applications

Developing an RF circuit starts with its end use application.  RF components are usually optimized for a given application and system architecture.  Richardson RFPD has deep and wide technical expertise to help you find the right solution for your requirements.  Listed below are some of the common applications that we support.

5G Applications

We fully support a wide range of devices for 5G, from Sub-6GHz Massive MIMO (mMIMO) to mmWave. These products cover the RF transceiver, Beamforming IC’s, RF Front End (RFFE) components.

Avionics

Richardson RFPD supplies both commercial-grade and avionics/military-grade components for the radio frequency (RF) and microwave sections of transponder/DME systems.

Components for Lab Bench Test

Richardson RFPD offers a wide range of test components for the lab test bench, from LNAs and broadband test amplifiers to high performance test cables, adapters, attenuators, terminations, coaxial switches, and lab kits.

Components for Test Equipment

Richardson RFPD offers a wide range of components suitable for RF test equipment, from low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, driver amplifiers, gain block amplifiers to discrete FETs, switches and more.

Radar

Whether it is the transmitting amplifier or the sensitive receive side section, which interprets the data, we offer a number of products and services optimized for radar systems.

Semiconductor Test

All RF Semiconductor Manufacturers require some level of RF test. To reduce manufacturing costs and improve yield, semiconductor devices are tested after being fabricated to prevent defective devices ending up with the consumer.

Software Defined Radio

We fully support a wide range of devices for 5G, from Sub-6GHz Massive MIMO (mMIMO) to mmWave. These products cover the RF transceiver, Beamforming IC’s, RF Front End (RFFE) components.
