SD2185

16-bit, 125MHz, Dual Channel ADC  

Overview & Features

The SD2185 is a dual-channel, 16-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) supporting sampling rates up to 125MSps. The device uses a multistage pipeline architecture to achieve high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and linearity, over wide input signal bandwidth. The SD2185 can be set to operate using either CMOS or LVDS output interface. Programming for configuration and control is accomplished using a 4-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: 74.7dBFS at fIN = 70.2MHz and fS = 125MSps
* SFDR: 86.5dBc at fIN = 70.2MHz and fS = 125MSps
* -154.3dBFS/Hz input-noise at fIN = 70.2MHz and fS = 125MSps
* 2.0V nominal input
* Typical power consumption: 450mW at 125MSps
* Integer 1-to-8 input clock divider (1000MHz maximum input rate)
* Sample rates of up to 125MSps
* 1.8V analog supply voltage
* LVDS (ANSI-644 levels) outputs
* Internal ADC voltage reference
* ADC clock duty cycle correction
* Serial port control
* Energy saving power-down modes
