Industry’s fastest 12-bit ADC clocks in at 4GS/s
Texas Instruments introduce what they claim is the industry’s fastest 12-bit ADC. Clocking in at 4GS/s (gigasamples per second), the RF-sampling ADC12J4000 supports the JEDEC JESD204B serial interface standard for data converters up to 8Gb/s. It is suitable for use in test and measurement, wireless and defence applications, such as spectrum analysers, munitions, digital pre-distortion feedback and radar.
4G devices support LTE category 4 and feature 3G/2G fallback
A line of LTE modules with UMTS/HSPA+, GSM/EDGE and GPRS fallback has been announced by u-blox. Designated the TOBY-L2 and MPCI-L2 modem series, the devices support LTE category 4 speeds up to 150 Mb/s down and 50 Mb/s up.
LVDS clock fanout buffers use 60% less power
Enabling up to 60% power and heat dissipation savings, the 8P34S family of clock fanout buffers have been announced by IDT. Offering high-performance AC characteristics similar to that of 3.3V devices, the 1.8V LVDS clock fanout buffers are suited for use in complex, low-noise, high-speed clock designs found in wireless and wireline communications, advanced computing, and networking applications.
GSM/GPRS module adresses cost-sensitive M2M applications
Available in a popular compact LGA module form factor, the SARA-G340 is a full-featured dual-band (900/1800 MHz) GSM/GPRS module from u-blox. The device adresses cost-sensitive M2M applications and is the ninth variant of the company’s SARA modem series.
Fully armed: Android development board boasts Cortex-A9 core
Farnell element14 is today exclusively launching an open source, single board platform designed to run Android operating systems. The Revolutionising the Internet of Things (RIoT) board features a high processing performance/low-power consumption processor with a broad range of peripherals and display capabilities.
Memory card delivers sequential speed of up to 310/240 MB/s
Boasting a 2-channel bidirectional structure, the CFast 2 memory card from Apacer features a SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s) high-speed transmission interface. Following the release of CFast 2.0 specifications, the CFast 2 increases performance by adopting Toggle DDR 2.0 NAND Flash.
Computer on module based on new Intel Atom processor
MSC Technologies’s MSC Q7-BT Qseven module family is based on the new Intel Atom processor E3800 product technology (formerly codenamed “Bay Trail”). The computer-on-modules close the gap between the high-end COM Express boards with Intel Core processors and the existing Intel Atom based Qseven modules at the entry level.
500MHz bandwidth option boosts signal and spectrum analysers
Rohde & Schwarz is now offering a 500MHz analysis bandwidth on its FSW high-end signal and spectrum analysers. The new R&S FSW-B500 hardware option is now available for all analysers in the FSW family and can be used for measurements in a frequency range up to 67GHz. This opens up new applications for the signal and spectrum analyser in research and development.
From passive to active
As mobile operators roll out 3G and 4G services, wireless networks will be characterised by migration away from legacy technologies to those that will more effectively support higher efficiency and performance. This is true in macro networks and also with distributed antenna systems (DAS), which deliver wireless signals in focused areas such as buildings and urban cores. John Spindler, Vice President, Product Management, TE Connectivity, takes an...
MLO diplexers boast lowest profile in market
Claiming to offer the lowest profile 0603 and 0805 MLO diplexers available in the global market, the devices from AVX are based on the company's patented multilayer organic high density interconnect technology. The 0603 and 0805 MLO diplexers, when compared to equivalent LTCC devices, exhibit superior attenuation, low insertion losses, low parasitics, high heat dissipation, and excellent solderability.
