Part Number: AWR2243

Hi,

This is regarding ADC and analog LPF in AWR2243P.

An aliases after ADC sampling will be determined by ADC oversampling frequency and analog LPF specifications.

In order to avoid errors caused by the aliases, customer need to know followings.

(1) How many orders of the analog filter?

(2) Filter type is active or passive?

(3) Butterworth / Chebyshev / else?

(4) Cut-off frequency

(5) Oversampling frequency of ADC is 1.8GHz?

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Shibata,

The analog LPF is a first order RC filter and has a loos cut off frequency of around 35Mhz. The main LPF filtering happens in the digital decimation chain using FIR filters. The digital provides > 60dB attenuation beyond the programmed ADC sampling frequency.
