Promising to accelerate the development of GSM/EDGE, WCDMA, LTE, and WiMax base stations, the
SP16160CH1RB subsystem reference design kit provides users with all the necessary components
¾reference design board, software, schematic, BOM, and Gerber files
¾to design high-performance radio receivers. The reference design allows evaluation of IF receive signal path performance under a variety of input conditions. It delivers an IF chain receiver sensitivity of -105 dBm with a 9-dB carrier-to-noise ratio in a 200-kHz channel at a 192-MHz input IF. Other features include operation from a single 5V supply, a dual-channel, 16-bit 160-Msamples/s pipeline ADC, dual-channel LMH6517 DVGA, and an LMK04031B clock jitter cleaner. Available now, single-unit price for the SP16160CH1RB subsystem reference design kit is $995. NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORP., Santa Clara, CA. (800) 272-9959.
