The modern, advanced CMOS direct radio frequency (RF)-sampling data converter has been eagerly awaited by system design engineers for several major end-equipment manufacturers. This includes ...

Communications receiver architecture has evolved slowly over the years. The most common and successful configuration is the superheterodyne architecture, which translates the incoming signal to a ...

Many systems divide a crystal frequency by an integer number to generate clock signals. Unfortunately, the integer divisor limits the available set of output frequencies. Applications such as ...

Texas Instruments (TI) recently introduced two new radio frequency (RF)-sampling transceivers that the company claims are the first in the industry to integrate four analog-to-digital converters (ADCs ...
