ADI AD9371 wideband RF transceiver

The ADI AD9371 wideband RF transceiver is highly integrated and offers dual-channel transmitters and receivers, integrated synthesisers and digital signal processing functions.

With a tuning range of 300 MHz to 6 GHz, 250 MHz signal bandwidth and power consumption of less than 5 W under standard operating conditions, the product delivers the combination of good performance and low power consumption required by 3G/4G micro and macro base station equipment in both FDD and TDD applications.

The product provides integrated transceiver technologies, a robust design environment and market-specific technical expertise to quickly move radio designs from concept to creation. The transceiver technologies reduce radio size, weight and power (SWaP), while the design environment offers board support packages, software and tools to help customers simplify and accelerate radio development across a range of applications, including wireless infrastructure, aerospace and defence electronics, and electronic test and measurement.

Other features include dual differential transmitters (Tx); dual differential receivers (Rx); an observation receiver (ORx) with two inputs; a sniffer receiver (SnRx) with three inputs; Tx synthesis bandwidth (BW) to 250 MHz; Rx BW: 8 MHz to 100 MHz; support for frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) operation; fully integrated independent fractional-N radio frequency (RF) synthesisers for Tx, Rx, ORx and clock generation; and a JESD204B digital interface.
