DESCRIPTION
The ADC141S626 is a 14-bit, 50 kSPS to 250 kSPS sampling Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter. The
converter is based on a successive-approximation
register (SAR) architecture where the differential
nature of the analog inputs is maintained from the
internal sample-and-hold circuits throughout the A/D converter to provide excellent common-mode signal
rejection. The ADC141S626 features an external
reference that can be varied from 1.0V to VA. It also
features a zero-power track mode where the ADC is
consuming the minimum amount of supply current
while the internal sampling capacitor is tracking the
applied analog input voltage.
The serial data output is binary 2's complement and
is compatible with several standards, such as SPI™,
QSPI™, MICROWIRE, and many common DSP
serial interfaces. The conversion result is clocked out
by the serial clock input and is the result of the
conversion currently in progress; thus, ADC141S626
has no latency.
The ADC141S626 may be operated with independent
analog (VA) and digital input/output (VIO) supplies. VA and VIO can range from 2.7V to 5.5V and can be set
independent of each other. This allows a user to
maximize performance and minimize power
consumption by operating the analog portion of the
ADC at a VA of 5V while communicating with a 3V
controller on the digital side. With a 3V source, the
power consumption when operating at 200 kSPS is
2.0 mW. With a 5V source, the power consumption
when operating at 250 kSPS is 4.8 mW. The power
consumption drops down to 4 μW and 13 μW
respectively when the ADC141S626 enters
acquisition (power-down) mode. The differential input, low power consumption, and small size make the
ADC141S626 ideal for direct connection to bridge
sensors and transducers in battery operated systems
or remote data acquisition applications.
Operation is guaranteed over the temperature range
of −40°C to +85°C and clock rates of 0.9 MHz to 4.5
MHz. The ADC141S626 is available in a 10-lead
VSSOP package.
