Description
The TS8388B is a monolithic 8-bit analog-to-digital converter, designed for digitizing
wide bandwidth analog signals at very high sampling rates of up to 1 GSPS.
The TS8388B uses an innovative architecture,
including an on-chip Sample and Hold (S/H),
and is fabricated with an advanced
high speed bipolar process.
The on-chip S/H has a 1.5 GHz full power
input bandwidth, providing excellent dynamic
performance in undersampling applications
(High IF digitizing).

Description
The TS8388B is an 8-bit 1 GSPS ADC based on an advanced high-speed bipolar technology
featuring a cutoff frequency of 25 GHz.
The TS8388B includes a front-end master/slave Track and Hold stage (S/H), followed by an
analog encoding stage and interpolation circuitry.
Successive banks of latches regenerate the analog residues into logical data before entering
an error correction circuitry and a resynchronization stage followed by 75Ω differential output
buffers.
The TS8388B works in fully differential mode from analog inputs up to digital outputs.
The TS8388B features a full-power input bandwidth of 1.5 GHz.
A control pin GORB is provided to select either Gray or Binary data output format.
A gain control pin is provided in order to adjust the ADC gain.
A Data Ready output asynchronous reset (DRRB) is available on TS8388B.
The TS8388B uses only vertical isolated NPN transistors together with oxide isolated polysili-
con resistors, which allow enhanced radiation tolerance (no performance drift measured at
150 kRad total dose).

Absolute maximum ratings are limiting values (referenced to GND = 0V), to be applied individually, while other parameters are
within specified operating conditions. Long exposure to maximum rating may affect device reliability. The use of a thermal heat
sink is mandatory. See “The board set comes fully assembled and tested, with the TS8388B installed.” on page 42.
