Editor’s note: Here is another ‘Golden nugget’ from my former TI colleague from my days at TI. I recommend that you observe Keller’s insights—he is an expert in the RF arena. High-speed data ...

Texas Instruments has revolutionized radio architectures and expanded its gigasample-per-second (GSPS) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) portfolio with the direct RF-sampling ADC12Dxx00RF family.

Growing demands in wideband radio and wireless communication deployments are imposing the necessity of a proper radio architecture capable of providing solid performance, more flexibility, in addition ...

The ADC12Dxx00RF family includes five 12-bit ADCs that enable system designers to eliminate multiple intermediate frequency (IF) down-conversion stages including amplifiers, mixers and filters. A ...

Abstract: The demand for higher data rates combined with the crowded wireless spectrum results in a trend towards millimeter-wave frequencies. RF-sampling architectures offer advantages in terms of ...

How to use DC-coupling for RF sampling ADCs. How to improve system linearity. Higher data rates in wireless communication systems and the use of narrower pulses in radars to resolve close targets ...

With the exponential increase in wireless traffic, mobile networks are transformed into more software-driven, virtualized, flexible, intelligent, and energy efficient systems. These trends have ...

The tasks performed by filters in various RF architectures. Differentiating factors between those architectures. Current trends in filter performance considerations. At any given time, a multitude of ...
