RF engineers are often forced to choose between available catalog filters that don't fully meet system requirements, resulting in performance compromises and extended design Gcycles. In this webinar, you'll learn how StrataWorks enables rapid configuration of production-ready RF filters from 7 GHz to 60 GHz, allowing you to evaluate performance, download simulation-ready S-parameters, and identify optimized solutions that can improve insertion loss, rejection, and time-to-deployment for radar, SATCOM, back-haul, aerospace, and test applications.
Overview
As RF and microwave systems continue to push into higher frequencies, engineers are under increasing pressure to deliver better performance while shortening development cycles. Unfortunately, traditional filter selection often requires evaluating multiple catalog parts, comparing datasheets, simulating tradeoffs, and ultimately compromising on insertion loss, rejection, bandwidth, or delivery schedule. For teams developing radar, SATCOM, aerospace, and test and measurement systems, this process can consume valuable engineering resources and delay time-to-market. In this webinar, you'll learn how StrataWorks is transforming RF filter selection by enabling engineers to configure and evaluate production-ready filters from 7 GHz to 60 GHz in minutes. Through real-world examples and measured hardware results, we'll demonstrate how engineers can rapidly explore design tradeoffs, optimize filter performance, and instantly download simulation-ready S-parameters and compliance data. Attendees will also see examples where StrataWorks solutions deliver advantages in insertion loss, rejection, and repeatability compared to commercially available filter options. We'll also examine how the technology behind StrataWorks has been proven in high-reliability environments and share a preview of the product roadmap, including configurable transmission lines, new filter topologies, enhanced PCB transitions, and future switched filter bank solutions. Whether you're focused on performance, productivity, or reducing design risk, you'll leave with practical insights for accelerating your next RF design.
