integrated, fixed gain, differential ADC drivers. The low
noise amplifiers are suitable for single-ended drive and
pulse train signals such as imaging applications. Each
channel includes a lowpass filter between the driver out-
put and ADC input.
DC specs include ±1.2LSB INL (typ), ±0.3LSB DNL (typ)
and no missing codes over temperature. The transition
noise is a low 1.2LSB
RMS
.
The digital outputs are serial LVDS and each channel out-
puts two bits at a time (2-lane mode). At lower sampling
rates there is a one bit option (1-lane mode). The LVDS
drivers have optional internal termination and adjustable
output levels to ensure clean signal integrity.
The ENC
+
and ENC
–
inputs may be driven differentially
or single-ended with a sine wave, PECL, LVDS, TTL or
CMOS inputs. An internal clock duty cycle stabilizer al-
lows high performance at full speed for a wide range of
clock duty cycles.
