Technical Documents

ADI's mixed signal front end (MxFE®) family offers a highly integrated device with four 16-bit, 12 GSPS RF digital-to-analog converter (DAC) cores, and either two 12-bit 6GSPS or four 12-bit, 4 GSPS, RF analog-to-digital converter (ADC) cores.

Analog Devices MxFE® RF Data Converter Transceivers


The Analog Devices MxFE RF Data Converter Transceivers are a family of mixed-signal front-end devices that integrate digital signal processing and data conversion. They offer high performance with up to 16-bit resolution and 6.4 GHz bandwidth, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, including wireless communications, radar, electronic warfare, and instrumentation. They also have advanced features such as on-chip DPD, crest factor reduction, and digital beamforming, as well as low power consumption. The MxFE transceivers are highly integrated, reducing system size and complexity, and are used in cellular base stations, repeaters, and small cells, as well as aerospace and defense applications, medical imaging, and industrial automation.

Features

The main features of DC-to-DC converters may be summarized as follows:

1. Wide frequency coverage: MxFE® transceivers cover a wide frequency range from 100 MHz to 50 GHz.

2. High dynamic range: With a dynamic range of over 110 dB, these transceivers can handle a wide range of signal levels.

3. High data conversion rate: The MxFE® transceivers support high-speed data conversion rates of up to 9 GSPS.

4. Configurable digital signal processing: The transceivers come with a configurable digital signal processing engine that can be programmed to meet specific application requirements.

5. Low power consumption: The transceivers have low power consumption, making them suitable for battery-operated applications.
