3 Description
The ADS855x contains six low-power, 16-, 14-, or 12-
bit, successive approximation register (SAR) based
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with true bipolar
inputs. Each channel contains a sample-and-hold
circuit that allows simultaneous high-speed multi-
channel signal acquisition.
The ADS855x supports data rates of up to 730 kSPS
in parallel interface mode or up to 500 kSPS if the
serial interface is used. The bus width of the parallel
interface can be set to eight or 16 bits. In serial
mode, up to three output channels can be activated.
The ADS855x is specified over the full industrial
temperature range of –40°C to 125°C and is available
in an LQFP-64 package.
