1. General description
The ADC1610S is a single-channel 16-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) optimized for
high dynamic performance and low power consumption at sample rates up to 125 Msps.
Pipelined architecture and output error correction ensure the ADC1610S is accurate
enough to guarantee zero missing codes over the entire operating range. Supplied from a
single 3 V source, it can handle output logic levels from 1.8 V to 3.3 V in CMOS mode,
because of a separate digital output supply. It supports the Low Voltage Differential
Signaling (LVDS) Double Data Rate (DDR) output standard. An integrated Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows the user to easily configure the ADC. The device also
includes a programmable full-scale SPI to allow a flexible input voltage range from
1 V to 2 V (peak-to-peak). With excellent dynamic performance from the baseband to
input frequencies of 170 MHz or more, the ADC1610S is ideal for use in communications,
imaging and medical applications.
