Overview
The ADMV8818SCCZ-EP, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a fully monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) designed for advanced RF and microwave applications. This device features a digitally selectable frequency of operation, making it highly versatile for various high-frequency applications. It includes four independently controlled high-pass filters (HPFs) and four independently controlled low-pass filters (LPFs) that span the 2 GHz to 18 GHz frequency range. The ADMV8818-EP is particularly suited for applications requiring precise and tunable filter responses without dead zones in the frequency band.
