The AD9136 from Analog Devices is a dual, 16-bit, high dynamic range digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that provides a maximum sample rate of 2800 MSPS, permitting a multicarrier generation over a very wide bandwidth. The DAC outputs are optimized to interface seamlessly with the ADRF6720 and ADRF670x analog quadrature modulators (AQMs) from Analog Devices. An optional 3- or 4-wire serial port interface (SPI) provides for programming/ readback of many internal parameters. The full-scale output current can be programmed over a typical range of 13.9 to 27.0 mA. The AD9136 is available in an 88-lead LFCSP.
