8-Bit, 500MSPS A/D Converter
ISLA118P50
The ISLA118P50 is a low-power, high-performance, 500MSPS
analog-to-digital converter designed with Intersil’s proprietary
FemtoCharge™ technology on a standard CMOS process. The
ISLA118P50 is part of a pin-compatible portfolio of 8, 10 and
12-bit A/Ds. This device an upgrade of the KAD551XP-50
product family and is pin similar.
The device utilizes two time-interleaved 250MSPS unit A/Ds to
achieve the ultimate sample rate of 500MSPS. A single 500MHz
conversion clock is presented to the converter, and all interleave
clocking is managed internally. The proprietary Intersil Interleave
Engine (I2E) performs automatic fine correction of offset, gain,
and sample time skew mismatches between the unit A/Ds to
optimize performance. No external interleaving algorithm is
required.
A serial peripheral interface (SPI) port allows for extensive
configurability of the A/D. The SPI also controls the interleave
correction circuitry, allowing the system to issue continuous
calibration commands as well as configure many dynamic
parameters.
Digital output data is presented in selectable LVDS or CMOS
formats. The ISLA118P50 is available in a 72-contact QFN
package with an exposed paddle. Performance is specified over
the full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).
