Designing Wideband Frontends for GSPS Converters

Overview:As high-speed A/D converter technology improves so does the need to resolve very high intermediate frequencies (IF) accurately at high-speeds. This poses two challenges, the converter design itself and the frontend design that couples the signal content to the converter. In this webcast, what defines a wideband passive network will be discussed, in addition to highlighting the specifications that are important when choosing a transformer or balun along with the current configuration topologies used today. Lastly, considerations and optimization techniques will be revealed in order to help realize a workable wideband solution in the GHz region that matches the parameters of a particular wideband application. 

Who Should Attend: Design engineers of radar, wireless infrastructure and instrumentation applications.
