An electronic device includes a semiconductor substrate and a heat sink arranged on a surface of the semiconductor substrate. The heat sink includes a plurality of metal filaments that each includes a first end joined to the surface, a second end, and a body over the surface such that the body is surrounded by a coolant medium to dissipate heat. The heat sink is not part of an electrical network.

A radio frequency (RF) waveguide housing includes a metal-diamond base with a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The metal-diamond base includes an opening through a thickness of the metal-diamond base, and the opening includes a first side on a side of the first surface of the metal-diamond base and a second side on a side of the second surface of the metal-diamond base. The RF waveguide housing also includes an insert to be inserted in the opening and affixed to the metal-diamond base. The insert defines an interior volume within the opening of the metal-diamond base and a shape of the insert at the first side of the opening is configured to match an end of an RF waveguide coupled to the RF waveguide housing.

A circulator is provided, comprising, first second and third conductors forming three equally spaced junctions and a permanent magnet configured to apply a shaped bias magnetic field to a ferrite resonator in operable communication with the first, second, and third conductors. The permanent magnet comprises a substantially planar monolithic structure having defined thereon at least first and second substantially concentric regions having first and second respective magnetic field strength levels, wherein the second magnetic field strength level is lower than the first magnetic field strength level. The first and second magnetic field strength levels are configured to cooperate to shape an external bias magnetic field of the permanent magnet to counteract at least a portion of a demagnetizing effect resulting from of an overall shape of the ferrite resonator, to achieve a substantially uniform internal magnetic bias within at least a portion of the ferrite resonator.

A multi-band electronically scanned array antenna including a first sub-assembly having electronic circuits for a first frequency band; a second sub-assembly mechanically coupled to the first sub-assembly and having electronic circuits for a second frequency band; and an aperture adjacent to the first sub-assembly, the aperture being shared by the first sub-assembly and the second sub-assembly. The array antenna may further include a band switching circuit, or a combining circuit for coupling the first sub-assembly or the second sub-assembly to the aperture. The array antenna may also include a third sub-assembly including electronic circuits for a third frequency band. In this way, the aperture is shared by the first sub-assembly, the second sub-assembly, and the third sub-assembly to provide a smaller and lighter array antenna.
