Farran is a trusted innovation partner to billion-dollar companies, system integrators, and research organizations worldwide.
We begin by reviewing your requirements to define the right mmWave architecture, frequency range, and performance targets. Our engineering team finalizes specifications and deliverables through a detailed technical review, ensuring feasibility, clear timelines, and budget alignment.
With decades of mmWave RF design expertise, we create precision schematics, PCB layouts, and CAD mechanical housings. Every design is tailored to your application, backed by a complete package and transparent quotation for informed decision-making.
100% in-house at Farran. Our skilled technicians assemble substrates, surface components, die, and wire-bonded mmWave elements. Using advanced ribbon and wire-bonding techniques, we guarantee reliable RF and DC signal performance.
Each product undergoes rigorous in-house testing with advanced RF and mmWave Test & Measurement systems. From electrical and RF validation to environmental stress testing, we deliver a complete dataset with every product to verify it meets and exceeds your specifications.
Products are carefully packaged to ESD and RF safety standards, ensuring secure global shipment through trusted logistics partners. Tracking and compliance are provided at every stage.
Our partnership continues beyond delivery. Through Farran’s Technical Hub, you gain direct access to engineering expertise, integration guidance, troubleshooting, and lifecycle management resources. This ensures long-term reliability and supports your ongoing mmWave innovation.
Custom Product Examples
5G Chip Design Project
When developing their 5G chipsets, our customers trust Farran’s wealth of mm-wave knowledge and expertise to enable high fidelity prototype testing in their development labs. Farran’s know-how enables customers to develop, test, and modify their chipset designs, with full confidence in the accuracy of the results to ensure they bring ‘Best in Class’ products early to the 5G market.
Early Automotive Radar Proof of Concept (Ford)
Farran was at the leading edge of automotive radar development. We designed and supplied early proof of concept Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar front ends to leading automotive manufacturers that helped them fast-track their radar development programs. Farran also provided guidance and expertise on numerous aspects of their early radar development work.
R&D work with European Space Agency
Over the last two decades, Farran has been involved in several research and development projects sponsored by European Space Agency. The objectives of these initiatives were to develop novel design techniques, manufacturing technologies, and processes for millimeter wave and sub-terahertz receivers along with atmospheric sensing front-ends. Farran has partnered with academic institutions (Tyndall National Institute, Cork) as well as commercial entities (United Monolithic Semiconductors) to develop mixer and multiplier gallium arsenide (GaAs) membrane circuits operating in the 170 – 380 GHz range. This work involved designing demonstrators with optimised and novel diode topologies, and manufacturing devices using hot embossing techniques. It also included various wafer post processing techniques such as beam lead incorporation, wafer thinning and window etching. A variety of doublers and sub-harmonic mixer circuits has been successfully developed and tested, with some published results available here.
