SD1146-170

12-bit, 170MHz, Dual Channel ADC with DSP

Overview & Features

The SD1146 is a dual-channel, 12-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) supporting sampling rates up to 170MSps. The
device uses a multistage pipeline architecture to achieve high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and linearity, over wide input
signal bandwidth. The SD1146 can be set to operate using either CMOS or LVDS output interface. Programming for
configuration and control is accomplished using a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial bus. The digital output data can be
programmed to be delivered in offset binary, twos complement format, or gray code.

FEATURES

  • SNR: 70.8dBFS at fIN = 70.2MHz and fS = 170MSps
