X-Microwave’s X-MWsystem is a modular, solderless evaluation system that incorporates thousands of physically compatible drop-in building blocks from multiple manufacturers for prototyping microwave assemblies. System blocks come fully characterized and modeled with X-parameters, S-parameters, and Sys-parameters. As a result, simulation and physical configuration through X-Microwave’s free online tools for nonlinear simulation and mechanical layout becomes an easier task. This modular approach, which eliminates the need for custom evaluation board layouts, has turned into a popular solution within the industry to shorten design cycles and accelerate time to market.
“Our partnership with X-Microwave has allowed us to offer a valuable and truly innovative resource to customers using Mini-Circuits components in their designs,” says Steven Scheinkopf, VP of technical marketing at Mini-Circuits. “We’re very pleased to continue expanding the partnership to support our customers’ design efforts with even more options.”
John Richardson, president of X-Microwave adds, “We are very excited about the number of Mini-Circuits parts that are now available on our drop-in format. Mini-Circuits’ broad range of parts and our modular system make it easy for designers to quickly transition from prototype to production hardware. For maximum flexibility, we are aggressively designing in the full portfolio of Mini-Circuits SMT and die parts.”
