TSMC CLN12FFC 16Gsps Analog Front-End

Overview

IGAAFEV03A is a high speed analog front-end circuit for 5GNR application which supports 4T4R. IGAAFEV03A contains five 12 bit 16 Gs/s SAR ADCs, four 12 bit 16 GHz DACs and one 16 GHz PLL. IGAAFEV03A support I2C, JTAG, and APB 3-in-1 interface to handle configuration and functionality control for ADC, DAC, and PLL. Individual power down mode of each ADC, DAC, and PLL is built in for power consumption reduction.
IGAAFEV03A is designed and fabricated in TSMC 12 nm FF CMOS process.
