Radars

Block diagram

Overview

Our integrated circuits and reference designs help you design radio detection and ranging (RADAR) systems with the performance, power and size needed in the L, S, C and X bands. Our high-speed signal chains provide the foundation to build systems that maximize both signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR).

Design requirements

RADAR systems often require:

  • Direct radio frequency (RF) sampling to achieve high bandwidth and dynamic range in L, S and C bands.
  • High levels of integration and low power for X band system size requirements.
  • Synchronized, ultra-low phase noise clocks for element level, phased-array applications.
  • Low-noise power supply for sensitive RF components.
