In the last two decades Spintronics has been an important driver for Information Technologies with the introduction in 1996 of magneto-resistive field sensors in data storage and in 2006 of magnetic random access memories. Spintronics can also bring alternative solutions for rf components used in Information-Communication Technologies. By virtue of their specific spin polarized transport properties spintronic devices become active, multifunctional, compact, low power, low cost, CMOS compatible rf components that combine functions of microwave signal generation (DC-to-RF converter), modulation and frequency selective microwave signal detection (RF-to-DC converter). In this presentation an overview will be provided for the realization of rf spintronic components and their corresponding rf properties with respect to different functions such as signal generation, modulation and detection. The results reported here were obtained in a collaborative effort within the FP7 project MOSAIC [1] including different laboratories SPINTEC-UGA/CEA/CNRS (F); CEA-LETI (F); INL, Braga (Pt); TUD (G); UMPhy CNRS/THALES (F); THALES TRT (F);
