[time-nuts] LTC6957 internal architecture

[David C. Partridge]

With all this talk of the LT6957 I'm wondering if there's interest in a re-spin of my frequency divider with one of these at the front end instead.

Regards,
David Partridge

The following patent hints that the LTC6957 front end probably consists of several cascaded long tailed pair differential amplifier stages each with a selectable bandwidth set by capacitors shunting the collector load resistors. : US8319551 The input limiter is in effect a Collins style limiter with selectable bandwidth for each stage to reduce the noise with respect to a comparator which typically has several high gain wide bandwidth cascaded differential amplifier stages.
