AD9353 is a 3.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz WiMAX RF transceiver from Analog Devices that features integrated ADCs and DACs, superior receiver sensitivity, high linearity and low phase noise.
The AD9353 WiMAX RF MxFE transceiver integrates the RF front‑end with mixed‑signal baseband, providing a digital interface to ASICs or FPGAs. It operates from 3.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz and supports channel bandwidths from 3.5 MHz up to 20 MHz.
Key features include a 12‑bit ADC, 10‑bit DAC, autonomous AGC, automatic frequency correction (<0.012 ppm), 8 Hz LO step size, and a low‑phase‑noise synthesizer. The device is powered from a single 3.3 V supply and packaged in a 9 mm × 9 mm, 64‑lead LFCSP.
