Analog Devices offers a variety of integrated front-end ICs that offer a compelling size advantage over previous generations of solutions. These RF amplifier-based front ends combine several functions into one product to simplify the overall signal chain in applications such as telecommunications, radar, and electronic warfare. The SWaP of these solutions is significantly reduced compared to separate functional block alternatives. One application is for the transmit/receive front end of a phased array radar antenna. These solutions often combine the power amplifier, low noise amplifier, and switch to toggle between Tx and Rx into one product to create a much simpler overall solution.
