AFE8406SEK [Texas Instruments]

The AFE840x series includes AFE8405 and AFE8406, which are multichannel communications signal processors providing analog-to-digital conversion and digital downconversion (DDC). They support UMTS, CDMA-1X, and TD-SCDMA air-interface cellular standards. The AFE8405 provides up to 8 UMTS DDC channels, 16 CDMA DDCs, or 16 TD-SCDMA DDCs, with two input ports (one 14-bit ADC and one 16-bit digital input). The AFE8406 provides the same DDC capabilities but with four input ports (two 14-bit ADCs and two 16-bit digital inputs). The DDC channels are independent and operate simultaneously. Each DDC channel can be programmed to accept data from any input port. The AFE840x System Evaluation Kit (SEK) includes hardware (TSW2100 clock solution EVM, GC101 motherboard, AFE840x daughtercard, power supplies, cables) and software (TSW2100 SPI and GC Studio) to ease evaluation.
