Hi Folks, I've been active on this forum asking questions on digital receiver. Earlier I was doing most of the work in the FPGA (thats how I architected it). Due to space constraints, this radio is going to be used as a Search and Rescue radio for the coast guard, I am re- architecting and planning to use a multi-channel digital receiver chip instead. This helps us to get rid of most of our analog front end and do minimal processing in the FPGA, and thus use a smaller FPGA also. The chips that come to mind are AD6654 and AD6624A. The AD6654A is special as it has the in-built ADC. Now some specs on my design requirements a) 4 channels, b) 121.5MHz - 245MHz band of interest. c) AM, FM, FSK demodulation. I have also looked at some Grayscale chips. I was wondering if you have any more suggestions. Thanks Morpheus
