This section demonstrates the use of the ADC12DL3200 as a wideband RF sampling receiver. The solution is flexible and can be used as either a 2-channel receiver (such as a diversity receiver) or as a single channel allowing double the signal bandwidth. The ADC is driven by single-ended RF amplifiers and the conversion to differential signaling is achieved by a transformer (balun). The ADC12DL3200 uses a low-latency LVDS interface in order to achieve quick event detection for latency-sensitive applications.
