Optional features allow users to implement various selectable
operating conditions, including input range, data format select,
and output data mode.
The AD9446 is available in a Pb-free, 100-lead, surface-mount,
plastic package (100-lead TQFP/EP) specified over the
industrial temperature range −40°C to +85°C.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1.
2.
True 16-bit linearity.
High performance: outstanding SNR performance for
baseband IFs in data acquisition, instrumentation,
magnetic resonance imaging, and radar receivers.
Ease of use: on-chip reference and high input impedance
track-and-hold with adjustable analog input range and an
output clock simplifies data capture.
Packaged in a Pb-free, 100-lead TQFP/EP package.
Clock duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) maintains overall ADC
performance over a wide range of clock pulse widths.
OR (out-of-range) outputs indicate when the signal is
beyond the selected input range.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9446 is a 16-bit, monolithic, sampling analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) with an on-chip track-and-hold circuit. It is
optimized for performance, small size, and ease of use. The
product operates up to a 100 MSPS, providing superior SNR for
instrumentation, medical imaging, and radar receivers
employing baseband (<100 MHz) IF frequencies.
The ADC requires 3.3 V and 5.0 V power supplies and a low
voltage differential input clock for full performance operation.
No external reference or driver components are required for
many applications. Data outputs are CMOS or LVDS
compatible (ANSI-644 compatible) and include the means to
reduce the overall current needed for short trace distances.
