The AD9873 integrates a complete 232 MHz quadrature digital transmitter and a multichannel receiver with four highperformance analog-to-digital converters (ADC) for various video and digital data signals. The AD9873 is designed for cable modem set-top box applications, where cost, size, power dissipation, and dynamic performance are critical attributes. A single external crystal is used to control all internal conversion and data processing cycles.
