Abstract :
A multi-standard, highly-linear analog front end for use in power line modems shows 105 dB linearity in a 9-95 kHz frequency band. It is for use in mixed analog-digital ASICs where it shows a 10 dB performance improvement over existing solutions due to interference-reduction design techniques.
