LTC1420
1420fa
12-Bit, 10Msps,
Sampling ADC
The LTC
®
1420 is a 10Msps, 12-bit sampling A/D converter
that draws only 250mW from either single 5V or dual ±5V
supplies. This easy-to-use device includes a high dynamic
range sample-and-hold, a precision reference and a PGA
input circuit.
The LTC1420 has a flexible input circuit that allows full-
scale input ranges of ±2.048V ±1.024V and ±0.512V. The
input common mode voltage is arbitrary, though a 2.5V
reference is provided for single supply applications. The
input PGA has a digitally selectable 1x or 2x gain.
Maximum DC specs include ±1LSB INL and ±1LSB DNL
over temperature. Outstanding AC performance includes
71dB S/(N + D) and 83dB SFDR at the Nyquist input
frequency of 5MHz.
The unique differential input sample-and-hold can acquire
single-ended or differential input signals up to its 100MHz
bandwidth. The 75dB common mode rejection allows
users to eliminate ground loops and common mode noise
by measuring signals differentially from the source. A
separate output logic supply allows direct connection to
3V components.
