BTS-3G High IF Sampling Rx
Analog Devices’ 3G base station solutions for high IF sampling receiver architectures require demanding high performance RF, linear, converter and control components. A-D Converters with high input bandwidth and high signal-noise ratio/dynamic range allow single conversion receiver topologies, thereby reducing bill of materials cost while improving performance.
