The fourth coil faces the second coil. The first constant-potential node is electrically connected with one end of the third coil. The second constant-potential node is electrically connected with one end of the fourth coil.

Microwave photonic devices use light to carry and process microwave signals over a photonic link. Light can be used as a stimulus to microwave devices that directly control microwave signals. Previous optically controlled devices suffer from large footprint, high optical power level required for switching, lack of scalability and complex integration requirements, restricting their implementation in practical microwave systems. Disclosed are monolithic optically reconfigurable integrated microwave switches (MORIMSs) built on a CMOS compatible silicon photonic chip. The disclosed scalable micrometer-scale switches provide higher switching efficiency and operate using optical power that is orders of magnitude lower than previous devices. The disclosed devices and techniques provide examples of silicon photonic platforms integrating microwave circuitry.

Microelectronic package communication is described using radio interfaces connected through wiring. One example includes a system board, an integrated circuit chip, and a package substrate mounted to the system board to carry the integrated circuit chip, the package substrate having conductive connectors to connect the integrated circuit chip to external components. A radio on the package substrate is coupled to the integrated circuit chip to modulate the data onto a carrier and to transmit the modulated data. A radio on the system board receives the transmitted modulated data and demodulates the received data, and a cable interface is coupled to the system board radio to couple the received demodulated data to a cable.

Disclosed herein are implementations of devices and methods for side mounting of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) transducers on tapered horn antennae. A hole may be made in a sidewall of a tapered horn antenna, where the hole may be substantially cylindrical, tapered and the like. In an implementation, an internal port opening of a MEMS microphone may be aligned with the hole and attached to the sidewall of the tapered horn antenna. In an implementation, the hole may be tapered with a diameter at one end the same or slightly larger than the diameter of the port opening of the MEMS microphone and a larger diameter at another end of the hole. In an implementation, a tube may be used to connect the internal port opening of the MEMS antenna to the hole in the tapered horn antenna. In an implementation, the tapered horn antenna may have multiple holes, each having its respective MEMS transducer.
