Dual, 80Msps, 12-Bit, IF/Baseband ADC
General Description
The MAX12528 is a dual 80Msps, 12-bit analog-to-digi-
tal converter (ADC) featuring fully differential wideband
track-and-hold (T/H) inputs, driving internal quantizers.
The MAX12528 is optimized for low power, small size,
and high dynamic performance in intermediate frequen-
cy (IF) and baseband sampling applications. This dual
ADC operates from a single 3.3V supply, consuming
only 726mW while delivering a typical 69.8dB signal-to-
noise ratio (SNR) performance at a 175MHz input fre-
quency. The T/H input stages accept single-ended or
differential inputs up to 400MHz. In addition to low oper-
ating power, the MAX12528 features a 330µW power-
down mode to conserve power during idle periods.
A flexible reference structure allows the MAX12528 to
use the internal 2.048V bandgap reference or accept
an externally applied reference and allows the refer-
ence to be shared between the two ADCs. The refer-
ence structure allows the full-scale analog input range
to be adjusted from ±0.35V to ±1.15V. The MAX12528
provides a common-mode reference to simplify design
and reduce external component count in differential
analog input circuits.
The MAX12528 supports either a single-ended or differ-
ential input clock. User-selectable divide-by-two (DIV2)
and divide-by-four (DIV4) modes allow for design flexibil-
ity and help eliminate the negative effects of clock jitter.
Wide variations in the clock duty cycle are compensated
with the ADC’s internal duty-cycle equalizer (DCE).
The MAX12528 features two parallel, 12-bit-wide,
CMOS-compatible outputs. The digital output format is
pin-selectable to be either two’s complement or Gray
code. A separate power-supply input for the digital out-
puts accepts a 1.7V to 3.6V voltage for flexible interfac-
ing with various logic levels. The MAX12528 is available
in a 10mm x 10mm x 0.8mm, 68-pin thin QFN package
with exposed paddle (EP), and is specified for the
extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.
