| ADC Type of filter ? - RF Cafe Forums | ||||||
|
Because of the high maintenance needed to monitor and filter spammers from the RF Cafe Forums, I decided that it would
be best to just archive the pages to make all the good information posted in the past available for review. It is unfortunate
that the scumbags of the world ruin an otherwise useful venue for people wanting to exchanged useful ideas and views.
It seems that the more formal social media like Facebook pretty much dominate this kind of venue anymore anyway, so if
you would like to post something on RF Cafe's
Facebook page, please do.
Below are all of the forum threads, including all the responses to the original posts. gui076 Post subject: ADC Type of filter ? Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2008 5:20 am Captain Joined: Mon May 05, 2008 9:56 am Posts: 15 Location: France Hello, I have an IQ demod before an ADC. After the IQ demod i would like to use direct conversion or low-if (70/140 MHz). My question is what type of filter i have to insert between the IQ demod and the ADC ? LPF,BPF ? SAW for 70/140 MHz ? Thank you.

I would use a lumped LC filter and not SAW, which has a high insertion loss and thus will reduce the ADC's dynamic range.

The noise won't be too high ?

If yes, then you will require a LPF to allow sampling in lower frequencies. If not, then a BPF is adequate. Both filters can be implemented by lumped components which will provide lower insertion loss than SAW technology.

So thank you for your answer Guillaume Posted 11/12/2012 | ||||||
