Low power 16bit d/a converter offers wide bandwidth support
IDT has unveiled the DAC165xQ, a low power 16 bit d/a converter featuring the JESD204B high speed serial interface.
The 1.5Gs/s quad converter offers wide bandwidth support and is optimised to ease board routing requirements in multi carrier broadband wireless applications.
IDT says the integrated 10Gb/s JESD204B interface improves system performance and simplifies routing and pcb stack up by replacing 32 matched differential lane pairs with up to eight high speed differential lanes.
The DAC165xQ supports all popular wireless standards, including MC-GSM, with a wide spurious free dynamic range (85dBc typ) and low noise spectral density (-162dBm/Hz typ) for improved signal quality.
Key features include numerically controlled oscillators for intermediate frequency mixing, a low noise bypassable integrated phase locked loop and various rf mute modes.
