The AD6684 is a 135 MHz bandwidth, quad intermediate frequency (IF) receiver. It consists of four 14-bit, 500 MSPS ADCs and various digital processing blocks consisting of four wideband DDCs, an NSR, and VDR monitoring. The device has an on-chip buffer and a sample-and-hold circuit designed for low power, small size, and ease of use. This device is designed to support communications applications. The analog full power bandwidth of the device is 1.4 GHz.?The quad ADC cores feature a multistage, differential pipelined architecture with integrated output error correction logic. Each ADC features wide bandwidth inputs supporting a variety of user-selectable input ranges. An integrated voltage reference eases design considerations. The AD6684 is optimized for wide input bandwidth, excellent linearity, and low power in a small package.?The analog inputs and clock signal input are differential. Each pair of ADC data outputs are internally connected to two DDCs through a crossbar mux. Each DDC consists of up to five cascaded signal processing stages: a 48-bit frequency translator, NCO, and up to four half-band decimation filters.?Each ADC output is connected internally to an NSR block. The integrated NSR circuitry allows improved SNR performance in a smaller frequency band within the Nyquist bandwidth. The device supports two different output modes selectable via the serial port interface (SPI). With the NSR feature enabled, the outputs of the ADCs are processed such that the AD6684 supports enhanced SNR performance within a limited portion of the Nyquist bandwidth while maintaining a 9-bit output resolution.?Each ADC output is also connected internally to a VDR block. This optional mode allows full dynamic range for defined input signals. Inputs that are within a defined mask (based on DPD applications) are passed unaltered. Inputs that violate this defined mask result in the reduction of the output resolution.?With VDR, the dynamic range of the observation receiver is determined by a defined input frequency mask. For signals falling within the mask, the outputs are presented at the maximum resolution allowed. For signals exceeding defined power levels within this frequency mask, the output resolution is truncated. This mask is based on DPD applications andsupports tunable real IF sampling, and zero IF or complex IF receive architectures.?Operation of the AD6684 in the DDC, NSR, and VDR modes is selectable via SPI-programmable profiles (the default mode is NSR at startup).In addition to the DDC blocks, the AD6684 has several functions that simplify the AGC function in the communications receiver. The programmable threshold detector allows monitoring of the incoming signal power using the fast detect output bits of the ADC. If the input signal level exceeds the programmable threshold, the fast detect indicator goes high. Because this threshold indicator has low latency, the user can quickly turn down the system gain to avoid an overrange condition at the ADC input.?Users can configure each pair of IF receiver outputs onto either one or two lanes of Subclass 1 JESD204B-based high speed serialized outputs, depending on the decimation ratio and the acceptable lane rate of the receiving logic device. Multiple device synchronization is supported through the SYSREF?, SYNCINB?AB, and SYNCINB?CD input pins.?The AD6684 has flexible power-down options that allow significant power savings when desired. All of these features can be programmed using the 1.8 V capable, 3-wire SPI.?The AD6684 is available in a Pb-free, 72-lead LFCSP and is specified over the ?40?C to +105?C junction temperature range. Product Highlights Low power consumption per channel. JESD204B lane rate support up to 15 Gbps. Wide full power bandwidth supports IF sampling of signals up to 1.4 GHz. Buffered inputs ease filter design and implementation. Four integrated wideband decimation filters and NCO blocks supporting multiband receivers. Programmable fast overrange detection. On-chip temperature diode for system thermal management.Applications Communications Diversity multiband, multimode digital receivers?3G/4G, W-CDMA, GSM, LTE, LTE-A HFC digital reverse path receivers Digital predistortion observation paths General-purpose software radios

The AD8339 is a quad I/Q demodulator configured to be driven by a low noise preamplifier with differential outputs. It is optimized for the LNA in the AD8332 / AD8334 / AD8335 family of VGAs. The part consists of four identical I/Q demodulators with a 4? local oscillator (LO) input that divides this signal and generates the necessary 0? and 90? phases of the internal LO that drive the mixers. The four I/Q demodulators can be used independently of each other (assuming that a common LO is acceptable) because each has a separate RF input.Continuous wave (CW) analog beamforming (ABF) and I/Q demodulation are combined in a single 40-lead ultracompact chip scale device, making the AD8339 particularly applicable in high density ultrasound scanners. In an ABF system, time domain coherency is achieved following the appropriate phase alignment and summation of multiple receiver channels. A reset pin synchronizes multiple ICs to start each LO divider in the same quadrant. Sixteen programmable 22.5? phase increments are available for each channel. For example, if Channel 1 is used as a reference and Channel 2 has an I/Q phase lead of 45?, then the user can phase align Channel 2 with Channel 1 by choosing the correct code.The mixer outputs are in current form for convenient summation. The independent I and Q mixer output currents are summed and converted to a voltage by a low noise, high dynamic range, current-to-voltage (I-V) transimpedance amplifier, such as the AD8021?or the AD829. Following the current summation, the combined signal is applied to a high resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC), such as the AD7665?(16-bit, 570 kSPS).An SPI-compatible serial interface port is provided to easily program the phase of each channel; the interface allows daisy chaining by shifting the data through each chip from SDI to SDO. The SPI also allows for power-down of each individual channel and the complete chip. During power-down, the serial interface remains active so that the device can be programmed again.The dynamic range is typically 160 dB/Hz at the I and Q outputs. The AD8339 is available in a 6 mm ? 6 mm, 40-lead LFCSP and is specified over the industrial temperature range of ?40?C to +85?C.APPLICATIONS Medical imaging (CW ultrasound beamforming) Phased array systems Radar Adaptive antennas Communication receivers

The AD8341 vector modulator performs arbitrary amplitudeand phase modulation of an RF signal. Because the RF signalpath is linear, the original modulation is preserved. This part canbe used as a general-purpose RF modulator, a variable attenuator/phase shifter, or a remodulator. The amplitude can be controlledfrom a maximum of ?4.5 dB to less than ?34.5 dB, and the phasecan be shifted continuously over the entire 360? range. For maximumgain, the AD8341 delivers an OP1dB of 8.5 dBm, an OIP3of 17.5 dBm, and an output noise floor of ?150.5 dBm/Hz,independent of phase. It operates over a frequency range of1.5 GHz to 2.4 GHz.The baseband inputs in Cartesian I and Q format control theamplitude and phase modulation imposed on the RF inputsignal. Both I and Q inputs are dc-coupled with a ?500 mVdifferential full-scale range. The maximum modulationbandwidth is 230 MHz, which can be reduced by adding externalcapacitors to limit the noise bandwidth on the control lines.Both the RF inputs and outputs can be used differentially orsingle-ended and must be ac-coupled. The RF input and outputimpedances are nominally 50 ? over the operating frequencyrange. The DSOP pin allows the output stage to be disabledquickly in order to protect subsequent stages from overdrive.The AD8341 operates off supply voltages from 4.75 V to 5.25 Vwhile consuming approximately 125 mA.The AD8341 is fabricated on Analog Devices? proprietary, highperformance 25 GHz SOI complementary bipolar IC process.
