LTC1850/LTC1851
18501f
8-Channel, 10-Bit/12-Bit,
1.25Msps Sampling ADCs
The 10-bit LTC
®
1850 and 12-bit LTC1851 are complete
8-channel data acquisition systems. They include a flex-
ible 8-channel multiplexer, a 1.25Msps successive approxi-
mation analog-to-digital converter with sample-and-hold,
an internal 2.5V reference and reference buffer amplifier,
and a parallel output interface. The multiplexer can be con-
figured for single-ended or differential inputs, two gain
ranges and unipolar or bipolar operation.
The ADCs have a scan mode that will repeatedly cycle
through all 8 multiplexer channels and can also be
programmed with a sequence of up to 16 addresses and
configurations that can be scanned in succession. The
sequence memory can also be read back. The reference
and buffer amplifier provide pin strappable ranges of
4.096V, 2.5V and 2.048V. The parallel output includes
the 10-bit or 12-bit conversion result plus the 4-bit
multiplexer address. The digital outputs are powered
from a separate supply allowing for easy interface to 3V
digital logic. Typical power consumption is 40mW at
1.25Msps from a single 5V supply.
