The LTC
廬
1279 is a 1.4碌s, 600ksps, sampling 12-bit A/D
converter which draws only 60mW from a single 5V or
鹵5V
supplies. This easy-to-use device comes complete
with a 160ns sample-and-hold, a precision reference and
an internally trimmed clock. Unipolar and bipolar conver-
sion modes add to the flexibility of the ADC. The low
power dissipation is reduced even more, drawing only
8.5mW in power shutdown mode. Instant wake-up from
power shutdown allows the converter to be powered
down even during brief inactive periods.
The LTC1279 converts 0V to 5V unipolar inputs from a
single 5V supply and
鹵2.5V
bipolar inputs from
鹵5V
supplies. Maximum DC specs include
鹵1LSB
INL and
鹵1LSB
DNL. Outstanding guaranteed AC performance
includes 70dB S/(N + D) and 78dB THD at the input
frequency of 100kHz over temperature.
The internal clock is trimmed for 1.4碌s conversion time.
The clock automatically synchronizes to each sample
command, eliminating problems with asynchronous clock
noise found in competitive devices. A separate conversion
start input and a data-ready signal (BUSY) ease connec-
tions to FIFOs, DSPs and microprocessors.
