The AD6620 is a digital receiver with four cascaded signalprocessing elements: a frequency translator, two fixedcoefficient decimating filters, and a programmable coefficient decimating filter. All inputs are 3.3 V LVCMOS compatible. All outputs are LVCMOS and 5 V TTL compatible. As ADCs achieve higher sampling rates and dynamic range, it becomes increasingly attractive to accomplish the final IF stage of a receiver in the digital domain. Digital IF Processing is less expensive, easier to manufacture, more accurate, and more flexible than a comparable highly selective analog stage. The AD6620 diversity channel decimating receiver is designed to bridge the gap between high-speed ADCs and general purpose DSPs. The high resolution NCO allows a single carrier to be selected from a high speed data stream. High dynamic range decimation filters with a wide range of decimation rates allow |
