The LTC1666/LTC1667/LTC1668 are 12-/14-/16-bit, 50Msps differential current output DACs implemented on a high performance BiCMOS process with laser trimmed, thin-film resistors. The combination of a novel current-steering architecture and a high performance process produces DACs with exceptional AC and DC performance. The LTC1668 is the first 16-bit DAC in the marketplace to exhibit an SFDR (spurious free dynamic range) of 87dB for an output signal frequency of 1MHz.Operating from ?5V supplies, the LTC1666/LTC1667/LTC1668 can be configured to provide full-scale output currents up to 10mA. The differential current outputs of the DACs allow single-ended or true differential operation. The ?1V to 1V output compliance of the LTC1666/LTC1667/LTC1668 allows the outputs to be connected directly to external resistors to produce a differential output voltage without degrading the converter?s linearity. Alternatively, the outputs can be connected to the summing junction of a high speed operational amplifier, or to a transformer.The LTC1666/LTC1667/LTC1668 are pin compatible and are available in a 28-pin SSOP and are fully specified over the industrial temperature range.Applications Cellular Base Stations Multicarrier Base Stations Wireless Communication Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) xDSL Modems Arbitrary Waveform Generation Automated Test Equipment Instrumentation

Each channel incorporates an active mixer and a digital IF VGA with 15.5dB gain control range. The IF gain of each channel is programmed in 0.5dB steps through the SPI.Programmable RF input tuning via the SPI or parallel control lines makes the device attractive for wideband radio applications. Furthermore, a reduced power mode is available, programmed through the SPI.Integrated RF transformers provide single-ended 50? inputs. The differential LO input is designed for single-ended or differential drive. The differential IF output simplifies the interface to differential IF filters and amplifiers. The mixers are optimized for use up to 5GHz but may be used up to 6GHz with degraded performance.Applications 4G and 5G MIMO Receivers Diversity Receivers Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) Network Test/Monitoring Equipment Software-Defined Radios

The LTC3246 is a switched capacitor buck-boost DC/DC converter with integrated watchdog timer. The device produces a regulated output (3.3V, 5V or adjustable) from a 2.7V to 38V input. Switched capacitor fractional conversion is used to maintain regulation over a wide range of input voltage. Internal circuitry automatically selects the conversion ratio to optimize efficiency as input voltage and load conditions vary. No inductors are required.The LTC3246?s reset time and watchdog timeout may be set without external components, or adjusted using external capacitors. A windowed watchdog function is used for high reliability applications. The reset input can be used for additional supply monitoring or be configured as a pushbutton reset.Low operating current (20?A without load, 1.5?A in shutdown) and low external parts count make the LTC3246 ideally suited for low power, space constrained automotive/ industrial applications. The device is short-circuit and overtemperature protected and is available in a thermally enhanced 16-pin MSOP package.Applications Automotive ECU/CAN Transceiver Supplies Industrial/Telecom Housekeeping Supplies Low Power 12V to 5V Conversion
