ADC14L040
14-Bit, 40 MSPS, 235 mW A/D Converter
General Description
The ADC14L040 is a low power monolithic CMOS analog-
to-digital converter capable of converting analog input sig-
nals into 14-bit digital words at 40 Megasamples per second
(MSPS). This converter uses a differential, pipeline architec-
ture with digital error correction and an on-chip sample-and-
hold circuit to minimize power consumption while providing
excellent dynamic performance and a 150 MHz Full Power
Bandwidth. Operating on a single +3.3V power supply, the
ADC14L040 achieves 11.9 effective bits at nyquist and con-
sumes just 235 mW at 40 MSPS . The Power Down feature
reduces power consumption to 15 mW.
The differential inputs provide a full scale differential input
swing equal to 2 times V
REF
with the possibility of a single-
ended input. Full use of the differential input is recom-
mended for optimum performance. Duty cycle stabilization
and output data format are selectable using a quad state
function pin. The output data can be set for offset binary or
two’s complement.
To ease interfacing to lower voltage systems, the digital
output driver power pins of the ADC14L040 can be con-
nected to a separate supply voltage in the range of 2.4V to
the analog supply voltage.
This device is available in the 32-lead LQFP package and
will operate over the industrial temperature range of −40˚C to
+85˚C. An evaluation board is available to ease the evalua-
tion process.
