3 Description

The ADC32RF45 device is a 14-bit, 3.0-GSPS, dualchannel,

analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that

supports RF sampling with input frequencies up to

4 GHz and beyond. Designed for high signal-to-noise

ratio (SNR), the ADC32RF45 delivers a noise

spectral density of –155 dBFS/Hz as well as dynamic

range and channel isolation over a large input

frequency range. The buffered analog input with onchip

termination provides uniform input impedance

across a wide frequency range and minimizes

sample-and-hold glitch energy.

Each ADC channel can be connected to a dual-band,

digital down-converter (DDC) with up to three

independent, 16-bit numerically-controlled oscillators

(NCOs) per DDC for phase-coherent frequency

hopping. Additionally, the ADC is equipped with frontend

peak and RMS power detectors and alarm

functions to support external automatic gain control

(AGC) algorithms.

The ADC32RF45 supports the JESD204B serial

interface with subclass 1-based deterministic latency

using data rates up to 12.5 Gbps with up to four lanes

per ADC. The device is offered in a 72-pin VQFN

package (10 mm × 10 mm) and supports the

industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
