Summary

The goal for of this application note is to provide a quick-start guide to some useful and familiar comparisons of ADC analog front-end interface designs, as well as provide an introduction to the newly TRF1208 TI wideband amplifier. With any new wideband front-end design, TI recommends evaluating the metric trade-offs first and plan accordingly upfront as provided in the first section. By reviewing and understanding these trade-offs up front, an appropriate selection can be made between baluns and amplifier front-end architectures for your next high-speed receiver design.
