We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "SFDR",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Analysers provide live RF view of the spectrum from
Tektronix, which we summarised at the time by saying "Unprecedented RF signal discovery capability for a broad range of digital RF applications including RFID, radiocommunications and spectrum management".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Direct digital synthesiser is made for handhelds from
Analog Devices: "The AD9913 is the first DDS device to deliver a 250MHz clock rate while consuming as little as 50mW of power".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Linear Technology Corp
concerning its LTC2209
- take a look at Speedy ADC simplifies receiver design
which says: "The LTC2209 is a 16-bit 160Msample/s high-performance high-speed ADC for leading-edge communications equipment and instrumentation applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Analog Devices, Drivers add flexibility to analogue design,
as well as Differential amplifiers suit defence applications from National Semiconductor,
and ADCs suit WiMAX and 3G wireless communications from National Semiconductor.
