Wideband IF Receiver Chip Provides Industry Leading Dynamic Range in a Highly Integrated SolutionNORWOOD, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADI) introduced today the AD6676 single chip wideband IF receiver subsystem, which allows designers of high-performance communications and instrumentation equipment to reduce the complexity of their receiver designs while simultaneously achieving frequency planning flexibility and industry leading instantaneous dynamic range. Watch a video about the AD6676 www.analog.com/AD6676video. The enabling technology behind the performance of the AD6676 is a highly programmable continuous-time bandpass sigma delta A/D converter (CTBPSD) topology which combines highly programmable analog filtering functionality with high dynamic range conversion. The implementation in deep sub-micron CMOS allows the advantages of oversampling by providing digitized bandwidth of up to 160Mhz. This provides a combination of features that enables "reconfigurable radio" architectures for high-performance heterodyne systems. AD6676 IF Subsystem-on-a-Chip Key Features
Analog Devices (News - Alert) is also providing a comprehensive set of tools to ease adoption of this advanced technology. In addition to datasheets, evaluation boards and online technical support, ADI has created a live remote hardware drive capability that allows customers to run experiments on the AD6676 in real time.
