The AFX010x Product Family by SCALINX is a leading-edge range of Analog Front Ends designed for both benchtop and portable data-acquisition systems. These AFEs offer up to four channels, each with up to a 16-bit resolution and a high sampling rate reaching 5 GSps. Additionally, they come with a digitally-selectable 3dB bandwidth, which can range up to 300MHz, and feature an integrated single-to-differential amplifier and offset DAC.
These AFEs are known for their low power consumption and high signal integrity. This makes them suitable for high sampling rate and wide bandwidth requirements, ensuring a high level of integration. The package includes programmable input capacitance, a programmable gain amplifier (PGA), an offset DAC, an ADC, and a digital processor within each channel, all within a standard 12mm × 12mm, 196-Ball BGA.
The AFX010x family uses SCALINX’s proprietary SCCORE™ technology, which reduces the PCB footprint and cuts power consumption by up to 50%. This results in products that are pin-to-pin compatible across different AFX010x variants, providing users with flexibility in terms of power modes and performance configurations.
