Overview

1-VIA’s high-speed low-power RF-ADC is targeted at upcoming telecommunication markets such as 5G and Satellite Communications. The RF-ADC has an effective 3dB bandwidth > 9GHz and 10 Effective Number of Bits (ENOB), making it an ideal candidate for FR1 (sub-6 GHz) and FR2 (mmWave 6-100 GHz) 5G deployment scenarios.

The ADC is a standalone macro which employs calibration of time interleaving skew, linearity and offset both at start-up and continuously in the background.
