There is more to a direct sampling RF front end than simply an antenna connected to a data converter, but what happens between these two components can feel like magic. How do we make a black box that takes information from the antenna, selects information of interest, and conditions the signal so it can be digitized by a data converter? Join us for this webinar as we walk through the building blocks of a direct sampling RF front end and discuss avoiding common pitfalls and misconceptions that can occur when designing and selecting components for the RF front end.
