Multi-Channel True Time Delay Unit
Building off the success of its single channel time delay unit, the ADAR4002, ADI has expanded its True Time delay offerings. The ADAR4000 and ADAR4001 are highly integrated products, providing multiple channels operating from 2 to 18 GHz. The true time delay cores ensure beam-squint free wideband operations. Both devices have four channels, each with a 7-bit true time delay and a digital step attenuator. The total time delay range is 508 ps per channel and includes programable amplifiers and on-chip memory, all in a 6 mm x 6 mm package.
