Demystifying 5G - Wideband noise and its impact on testing the true performance of ADCs
We compare the wideband noise performance of conventional signal generators with the R&S®SMA100B RF and microwave analog signal generator from Rohde & Schwarz that offers an improved wideband noise performance of more than 10 dB. High-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) such as the recently launched ADC12DJ3200 from Texas Instruments are particularly
