Good Day everyone:
I would like to construct a multi-channel (around 10 channels...)high speed data acquisition system, the receiving signal from each channel is going to be a fixed frequency (15 MHz) sinusoidal signal. So the system need to be able to detect the magnitude and the phase change compare to a reference 15MHz signal.
since the signal's frequency is quite high and fixed, and I have also got a reference signal...I am thinking maybe an analogue synchronous I/Q demodulation will be the right approach....
It's my first time to design such a high frequency system..so I don't know whether there is anything that I need to be aware of when prototyping the electronic circuit? (like can I use breadboard and normal wire to build the circuit? as there is going to be lots of radiation + electric coupling at high frequencies...etc)
And also, does anyone know any good high speed op-amp, programmable gain amplifier and mixers? low noise, low distortion one would be perfered...I have look through the Analog Device's website and apparently there is a AD8333 chip that can do the trick for me...but I actually don't know about its accuracy + performance compare with normal I/Q demodulation circuits...
Thank you very much for the help!!
