The input to your system has a receiver with a high order low pass filter and a 3 dB point of 100 MHz. You then sample the signal with an Analog to Digital Converter. What is the maximum time interval ...

Recent advances in high-speed data converters now digitize or generate signals directly at radio frequencies up to several gigahertz, replacing traditional radio-frequency (RF) components like mixers, ...

Scientists in Germany have developed a new silicon-germanium chip that achieves the world’s highest ...

Suppose you take a few measurements of a time-varying signal. Let’s say for concreteness that you have a microcontroller that reads some voltage 100 times per second. Collecting a bunch of data points ...

Communications receiver architecture has evolved slowly over the years. The most common and successful configuration is the superheterodyne architecture, which translates the incoming signal to a ...

Today's analog system designers face many design challenges. Not only do designers need to select the proper integrated-circuit components, but they also must accurately predict the interactions of ...

A cellular or desktop phone that converts human speech to a digital signal and vice versa. Cellphones use the GSM or CDMA technology, whereas the desktop phones that connect to an in-house PBX or key ...
