Hittite has introduced a complete multi-GHz quantiser chipset that enables quantisation of ultra wideband signals from DC to 18 GHz with excellent linearity and low noise.
It provides high levels of performance for test and measurement systems, bit error rate testers (BERTs) and pulse detection systems including pulse Doppler radars where wideband sampling capability is a necessity.
The HMC9000 includes an 8-bit 1000 MSps ADC (analog to digital converter) and a T/H (track-and-hold) amplifier which offers precision signal sampling over 18 GHz of input bandwidth. This combination delivers high linearity of >50 dB SFDR up to 7 GHz and low noise of >40 dB SNR up to 9 GHz at 1 Vp-p full scale level.
To enable rapid prototyping of the multi-GHz quantiser, Hittite offers both the EVAL01-HMC9000 and the EKIT01-HMC9000 evaluation platforms. The EVAL01-HMC9000 is a fully populated evaluation PCB which includes the HMC9000 multi-GHz quantiser and other key supporting circuitry such as Hittite’s HMC988LP3E and HMC1034LP6GE.
The full EKIT01-HMC9000 evaluation and application reference kit expands on the EVAL01-HMC9000 and adds a hardware platform based on the Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGA. The EKIT01-HMC9000 reference kit includes complete software and hardware user guides as well as complete design and layout files.
