that includes a high-speed 16-bit A/D converter, matching
network, anti-aliasing filter and a low noise, differential
amplifier with fixed gain. It is designed for digitizing wide
dynamic range signals with an intermediate frequency
(IF) range up to 300MHz. The amplifier allows either AC-
or DC-coupled input drive. A lowpass or bandpass filter
network can be implemented with various bandwidths.
Contact Linear Technology regarding semi-custom
configurations.
The LTM9001 is perfect for IF receivers in demanding
communications applications, with AC performance that
includes 72dBFS noise floor and 82dB spurious free
dynamic range (SFDR) at 162.5MHz (LTM9001-AA).
The digital outputs can be either differential LVDS or single-
ended CMOS. There are two format options for the CMOS
outputs: a single bus running at the full data rate or two
demultiplexed buses running at half data rate. A separate
output power supply allows the CMOS output swing to
range from 0.5V to 3.3V.
The differential ENC
+
and ENC
–
inputs may be driven with
a sine wave, PECL, LVDS, TTL or CMOS inputs. An optional
clock duty cycle stabilizer allows high performance at full
speed with a wide range of clock duty cycles.
