DESCRIPTION
The ADC08500 is a low power, high performance
CMOS analog-to-digital converter that digitizes
signals to 8 bits resolution at sampling rates up to
500 MSPS. Consuming a typical 0.8 Watts at 500
MSPS from a single 1.9 Volt supply, this device is
ensured to have no missing codes over the full
operating temperature range. The unique folding and
interpolating architecture, the fully differential
comparator design, the innovative design of the
internal sample-and-hold amplifier and the self-
calibration scheme enable a very flat response of all
dynamic parameters beyond Nyquist, producing a
high 7.5 ENOB with a 250 MHz input signal and a
500 MHz sample rate while providing a 10-18 B.E.R.
Output formatting is offset binary and the LVDS
digital outputs are compatible with IEEE 1596.3-1996,
with the exception of an adjustable common mode
voltage between 0.8V and 1.2V.
The converter has a 1:2 demultiplexer that feeds two
LVDS buses and reduces the output data rate on
each bus to half the sampling rate.
The converter typically consumes less than 3.5 mW
in the Power Down Mode and is available in a 128-
lead, thermally enhanced exposed pad HLQFP and
operates over the Industrial (-40°C ≤ TA ≤ +85°C)
temperature range.
