Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDTI): New Digital Step Attenuator Eliminates Up To 95 Percent of Glitches in Cellular Base Station and Other Applications
Integrated Device Technology (IDT®), the Analog and Digital Company™ providing critical mixed-signal semiconductor solutions, announced an innovative, new digital step attenuator (DSA) that cuts down on transient “glitches” during most significant bit (MSB) transitions by up to 95 percent in multi-standard 4G, 3G, and 2G cellular base station and industrial applications. IDT’s Glitch-Free™ DSA simplifies customers’ interface, improves reliability, and prevents damage to sensitive, expensive equipment. The IDT F1950 and F1951 are digital step attenuators designed specifically for the demanding requirements of base transceiver station (BTS) receive, transmit, and digital pre-distortion (DPD) paths. IDT has removed glitches from the transmit…
