Abstract
A low noise block circuit includes a first input signal trace configured to receive a first satellite signal centered at a first frequency; a second signal trace configured to receive a second satellite signal centered at a second frequency; a combiner having a first input connected to the first input signal trace and a second input connected to the second signal trace, and configured to combine the first and second satellite signals to generate and output a combined satellite signal; and an analog-to-digital converter element having a first input coupled to receive the combined satellite signal, and configured to convert the combined satellite signal from an analog signal to a digital signal.
