DESCRIPTION
The LTC
廬
1412 is a 12-bit, 3Msps, sampling A/D con-
verter. This high performance device includes a high
dynamic range sample-and-hold and a precision refer-
ence. Operating from
鹵5V
supplies it draws only 150mW.
The
鹵2.5V
input range is optimized for low noise and low
distortion. Most high performance op amps also perform
best over this range, allowing direct coupling to the analog
inputs and eliminating the need for special translation
circuitry. Outstanding AC performance includes 72dB
S/(N + D) and 82dB SFDR at the Nyquist input frequency
of 1.5MHz.
The unique differential input sample-and-hold can acquire
single-ended or differential input signals up to its 40MHz
bandwidth. The 60dB common mode rejection allows
users to eliminate ground loops and common mode noise
by measuring signals differentially from the source.
The ADC has a high speed 12-bit parallel output port. There
is no pipeline delay in the conversion results. A separate
convert start input and converter status signal (BUSY)
ease connections to FIFOs, DSPs and microprocessors. A
digital output driver power supply pin allows direct con-
nection to 3V logic.
