3 Description

The ADC3681, 82, 83 (ADC368x) is a low noise, ultralow

power 18-bit 65 MSPS high-speed dual channel

ADC family. Designed for lowest noise performance,

it delivers a noise spectral density of -160 dBFS/Hz

combined with excellent linearity and dynamic range.

The ADC368x offers excellent DC precision together

with IF sampling support which makes it suited for a

wide range of applications. High-speed control loops

benefit from the short latency as low as only 1 clock

cycle. The ADC consumes only 94 mW/ch at 65 Msps

and its power consumption scales well with lower

sampling rates.

The ADC368x uses a serial LVDS (SLVDS) interface

to output the data which minimizes the number of

digital interconnects. The device supports two-lane,

one-lane and half-lane options. The ADC36xx is a

pin to pin compatible family of ADCs with 16 and

18-bit resolution and different speed grades. It comes

in a 40-pin QFN package (5 x 5mm) and supports

the extended industrial temperature range from -40 to

+105?C.
