3 Description
The ADS556x is a high-performance 16-bit family of
ADCs with sampling rates up to 80 MSPS. The
device supports very-high SNR for input frequencies
in the first Nyquist zone. The device includes a lowfrequency
noise suppression mode that improves the
noise from DC to about 1 MHz.
In addition to high performance, the device offers
several flexible features such as output interface
(either Double Data Rate [DDR] LVDS or parallel
CMOS) and fine gain in 1-dB steps until 6-dB
maximum gain.
Innovative techniques, such as DDR LVDS and an
internal reference that does not require external
decoupling capacitors, have been used to achieve
significant savings in pin count. This innovation
results in a compact 7-mm × 7-mm 48-pin VQFN
package.
The device can be put in an external reference mode,
where the VCM pin behaves as the external reference input. For applications where power is
important, the ADS556x device offers power down
modes and automatic power scaling at lower sample
rates.
The device is specified over the industrial
temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
