impressive how these experts convey their industry in a more direct point of view. hopefully microvave systems can attain more far beyond in its current applications. thanks for this great video.
To add to the confusion, the prefix "micro" represents a smaller unit than "milli", but not in this topic; it must be that "micro" was adopted as a general term to describe really short wavelengths, rather than as a strict unit of measure. One could have expected them to be called "cmWaves". Maybe.
I think it is because when the term microwave was first introduced nobody really thought about mmWaves. Also the term micro was a term that tended to be used rather loosely: microbore pipes, micro bus, and so forth. I don’t think the term was done scientifically.
Used to use microwave for point-to-point links in data networking. Have been out of that for a while now, but would love to see more videos about mm wave technologies and how the designs are handled (as you touched on here noting that the wavelength is of similar size to the features of the circuit etc). Thanks for the video.

Glad you like the experts we interviewed. I also think they did a great job.

I confess it is a term I have always accepted and would need to look into the origins of it a bit more.
The reason microwaves are so called is because the wavelength is short, I.e. small & micro means small.
@@ElectronicsNotes That's what I thought; I just find it fascinating that as a result, "millimeter waves" are smaller than "microwaves".

@@ElectronicsNotes Understood and thank you.

Glad you liked the video. I'll have to see what else we can do. Thanks for the idea.
That's really informative
Really glad you found it interesting & useful.
@@ElectronicsNotes You are soooo good at this!
@@PCBWay Thank you.
We do have some collab ideas not sure if have the interest? If yes, could you pls email: elaine@pcbway.com for a detailed discussion?😀
