Application Note

Comparing Active vs. Passive High-Speed/RF A/D Converter Front Ends

Abstract

Designing the analog input interface for a high-speed converter can be a daunting task throughout the product design process. Even though 10Gsps high-speed converters can deliver as much as 10GHz of bandwidth, most of the limitations involve a front-end design.
