Description

The AD9671 is designed for low cost, low power, small size, andease of use for medical ultrasound applications. It contains eightchannels of a VGA with an LNA, a CW harmonic rejection I/Qdemodulator with programmable phase rotation, an AAF, anADC, and a digital demodulator and decimator for dataprocessing and bandwidth reduction.Each channel features a maximum gain of up to 52 dB, a fullydifferential signal path, and an active input preamplifier termination.The channel is optimized for high dynamic performance andlow power in applications where a small package size is critical.The LNA has a single-ended to differential gain that is selectablethrough the serial port interface (SPI). Assuming a 15 MHz noisebandwidth (NBW) and a 21.6 dB LNA gain, the LNA input SNRis 94 dB. In CW Doppler mode, each LNA output drives an I/Qdemodulator that has independently programmable phaserotation with 16 phase settings.Power-down of individual channels is supported to increasebattery life for portable applications. Standby mode allows quickpower-up for power cycling. In CW Doppler operation, theVGA, AAF, and ADC are powered down. The ADC containsseveral features designed to maximize flexibility and minimizesystem cost, such as a programmable clock, data alignment, andprogrammable digital test pattern generation. The digital testpatterns include built-in fixed patterns, built-in pseudorandompatterns, and custom user defined test patterns entered via the SPI.Applications Medical imaging/ultrasound Nondestructive testing (NDT)
