AD9375 for Small Cell & Massive MIMO
The deployment of small cell and Massive MIMO base stations in transitioning from 4G to 5G has put ever-higher demands on system power, size, and cost. With a deep understanding of market opportunities and technology pain points, ADI engineers anticipated power-scaling issues facing pre-5G wireless communications and created a solution: The AD9375 – the world’s first wideband RF transceiver with integrated Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD).

The AD9375
The AD9375 is the first RF transceiver to incorporate the digital pre-distortion algorithm on-chip. Building on the foundations laid by the award winning AD9371, the AD9375 adds a DPD solution that reduces DPD power by 90% over FPGA based solutions and cuts the number of SERDES lanes in half, reducing FPGA complexity and cost. The power savings, integration and system cost reduction make it an ideal solution for low-power, small form factor applications such as small cell and massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO). Meanwhile, ADI’s RadioVerse offers a robust design ecosystem that enables faster time to market, including a tested PA library, a small cell reference design, and an evaluation kit. The AD9375 integrated DPD solution supports 3G and 4G waveforms with an instantaneous signal bandwidth of up to 40MHz.
