Hi Tom,

The 4GSPS version of KatADC is based on an "up-tested" version of the
ADC08D1520, which is designated S7002396.  It is unclear whether this
will be released as a commercial product by National - a few inquiries
to them couldn't hurt the cause.  So far we have only received the
one.  The rest of the board is the same as the wide-band front-end
KatADC version, which is the standard version that Mo builds (i.e.
with BOM: 
http://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/images/7/71/KATADC1.3BOM_HF_Build.pdf).

If you can extract a chip from National it should be a simple matter
to get one built.

Regards,
Francois
