DESCRIPTION
µPower, 16-Bit, 250ksps
1- and 2-Channel
ADCs in MSOP
The LTC
®
1864/LTC1865 are 16-bit A/D converters that
are offered in MSOP and SO-8 packages and operate
on a single 5V supply. At 250ksps, the supply current is
only 850μA. The supply current drops at lower speeds
because the LTC1864/LTC1865 automatically power down
between conversions. These 16-bit switched capacitor
successive approximation ADCs include sample-and-
holds. The LTC1864 has a differential analog input with an
adjustable reference pin. The LTC1865 offers a software-
selectable 2-channel MUX and an adjustable reference pin
on the MSOP version.
The 3-wire, serial I/O, small MSOP or SO-8 package and
extremely high sample rate-to-power ratio make these
ADCs ideal choices for compact, low power, high speed
systems.
These ADCs can be used in ratiometric applications or with
external references. The high impedance analog inputs
and the ability to operate with reduced spans down to
1V full scale, allow direct connection to signal sources
in many applications, eliminating the need for external
gain stages.
