Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now shipping the ADMV8818 digitally tunable filter from Analog Devices, Inc. The ADMV8818 is a fully monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) with a digitally selectable frequency of operation, offering a space-efficient alternative to large, switched filter banks and cavity-tuned filters. Ideal for industrial instrumentation and measurement, aerospace, defense and medical applications, the filter provides a dynamically adjustable solution for advanced communications applications.
The Analog Devices ADMV8818, available from Mouser, features four independently controlled high-pass filters and four independently controlled low-pass filters that span the 2 GHz to 18 GHz frequency range. The flexible architecture of the ADMV8818 allows the 3 dB cutoff frequency (f3dB) of the high- and low-pass filters to be controlled independently to generate up to 4 GHz of bandwidth.
Also available to order from Mouser, the ADMV8818-EVALZ evaluation board incorporates the ADMV8818 chip as well as a negative voltage generator, low-dropout (LDO) regulators, and an interface to the EVAL-SDP-CS1Z (SDP-S) system demonstration platform (SDP) to allow simple and efficient evaluation. The negative voltage generator and LDO regulators allow the ADMV8818 to be powered by either the 5 V USB supply voltage from the PC via the SDP-S or two external power supplies. The SDP-S controller enables the user to interface with the ADMV8818 SPI through the ADI Analysis | Control | Evaluation (ACE) software.
