DESCRIPTION
The ADC121S101 is a low-power, single channel CMOS 12-bit analog-to-digital converter with a high-speed
serial interface. Unlike the conventional practice of specifying performance at a single sample rate only, the
ADC121S101 is fully specified over a sample rate range of 500 ksps to 1 Msps. The converter is based upon a
successive-approximation register architecture with an internal track-and-hold circuit.
The output serial data is straight binary, and is compatible with several standards, such as SPI™, QSPI™,
MICROWIRE, and many common DSP serial interfaces.
The ADC121S101 operates with a single supply that can range from +2.7V to +5.25V. Normal power
consumption using a +3V or +5V supply is 2.0 mW and 10 mW, respectively. The power-down feature reduces
the power consumption to as low as 2.6 µW using a +5V supply.
The ADC121S101 is packaged in 6-lead WSON and SOT-23 packages. Operation over the temperature range of
−40°C to +125 °C is specified.
