Abstract :
Operation of wireless communication systems with mixed signal circuits operating in gigahertz range frequencies has raised the need for new test and design methodologies to meet the current and future market requirements. This paper discusses the challenges arising in mixed signal portable wireless packaging with emphasis on design and test. Solutions being pursued at PRC are also discussed
