<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Hi Phil & Phil,
All,</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Sorry to bug you
again Phil....</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Reading the webpage,
you mention the LTC2209 (=LTC2208 170 MSPS ).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Searching the Linear
website, I couldn't find any reference to it, only one reference in a PDF of an
evaluation board.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Do you know if they
still (or not yet) sell it or if they dropped it?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>If it would be still
available, it would be a direct "drop in" replacement (pin compatible) for the
LCT2208?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Another question
would be: Why did you switch from 2 ADC's (as mentioned in the Mercury
calculation text) to one?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Would have been nice
to have a 170 MHz (2 X LCT2209) Mercury up to / including 2 meter
!!!??? ;-) </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=421125507-20042007>Or would this
be impossible due to lack of processing power in the FPGA?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

this in the archives.....</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
