two tone simulation for pipeline ADC
Nov 26th, 2008, 9:52pm
 
hi,
i am planning to perform a two tone simulation for a pipeline ADC (9 BIT 2s compliment ADC).Can any one help me to get some idea on two tone simulation....

Could you formulate the specific question you have? Try to have a look at the following posts in the forum to get started:

hi,
My input frequencys are 6.875M and 8.75M and the maximum sampling frequncy of the ADC is 80M.Can any one tell is there any criteria in selecting the sampling frequency as in the case of single tone coherent sampling method.

Prem,

I think that two tone simulation requires coherent sampling, too. First of all, decide how many points do you want to sample? Then calculate the signal frequencies for both tones following the rule in the case of one tone coherent simulation. Please notice each tone is of half amplitude to prevent the ADC from clipping (saturation).
