Card power chip meets smart and SIM standards
The LTC4557 is a dual SIM/smart-card power supply and level translator, which provides both 1.8 and 3V SIM power and digital signal level shifting from a 3 x 3mm QFN package.
RF mixers take transformers onboard
Linear Technology has released two new high linearity up-converting RF active mixers with integrated RF transformers.
The high sampling rate allows designers to capture wider channel bandwidths, doubling the capacity of existing systems that are typically sampling at 65Msps.
In addition to the 14bit LTC2285, Linear Technology offers the pin compatible 12bit LTC2283 and 10bit LTC2281 125Msample/s dual ADCs.
These three dual ADCs complete a 3V family of 10, 12 and 14bit parts ranging from 10 to 125Msample/s.
The pin compatibility offers designers more flexibility during product development, providing a fast and cost-effective upgrade path for existing designs.
The ADCs provide very low crosstalk between channels of -110dB.
The LTC2285 low power family is packaged in a small 9 x 9mm QFN package.
The parts include integrated bypass capacitance and 50ohm series output matching for a small total solution size.
They provide the flexibility to choose between two input spans of 1 or 2V peak-peak.
The 125Msample/s dual ADCs also offer a data-ready clock-out pin for latching the output data buses.
The ADCs are optimised for undersampling signals up to 140MHz, and have a wide analog input bandwidth of 640MHz.
For downconversion signal chains, Linear Technology recommends the LT5516 direct conversion quadrature demodulator and LT6402 300MHz low distortion/low noise ADC driver.
All three devices are supported with demo boards for quick evaluation and can be purchased online.
Samples of the LTC2285, LTC2283 and LTC2281 are available today along with production quantities for both the commercial and industrial temperature grades.
These devices are competitively priced at US $73.50, $41.25 and $18.00 each, respectively, in 1000-piece quantities. Request a free brochure from Linear Technology Corp ...
