The extensive use of data converters in devices such as smartphones, tablets, and notebooks
For those who are unfamiliar, many basic functions in smartphones and
tablets such as voice calling, video streaming, image capture, and touch
sensing involve data converters at the backend for signal conversion.
The increasing
development of 3G/4G-compatible smartphones will increase the number of filters, both
SAW and BAW, which will increase the number of data convert units in the
RF front ends.
The increasing
display resolution and processor capacity in smartphones will
influence the demand for high-speed data converters.
Data converters act
as a key component, converting analog signals from different
devices to digital signals for processing.
