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).
