P RO D UCT D ESCRIP TIO N
T he AD876 comes in a space saving 28-lead SOIC and 48-lead
thin quad flatpack (T QFP) and is specified over the commercial
(0°C to +70°C) temperature range.
T he AD876 is a CMOS, 160 mW, 10-bit, 20 MSPS analog-to-
digital converter (ADC). T he AD876 has an on-chip input
sample-and-hold amplifier. By implementing a multistage pipe-
lined architecture with output error correction logic, the AD876
offers accurate performance and guarantees no missing codes
over the full operating temperature range. Force and sense con-
nections to the reference inputs minimize external voltage drops.

Low P ower
T he AD876 at 160 mW consumes a fraction of the power of
presently available 8- or 10-bit, video speed converters. Power-
down mode and single-supply operation further enhance its
desirability in low power, battery operated applications such
as electronic still cameras, camcorders and communication
systems.
T he AD876 can be placed into a standby mode of operation
reducing the power below 50 mW. T he AD876’s digital I/O
interfaces to either +5 V or +3.3 V logic. Digital output pins
can be placed in a high impedance state; the format of the out-
put is straight binary coding.
Ver y Sm all P ackage
T he AD876 comes in a 28-lead SOIC, 28-lead SSOP, and 48-
lead surface mount, thin quad flat package. T he T QFP package
is ideal for very tight, low headroom designs.
T he AD876’s speed, resolution and single-supply operation
ideally suit a variety of applications in video, multimedia, imag-
ing, high speed data acquisition and communications. T he
AD876’s low power and single-supply operation satisfy require-
ments for high speed portable applications. Its speed and reso-
lution ideally suit charge coupled device (CCD) input systems
such as color scanners, digital copiers, electronic still cameras
and camcorders.
D igital I/O Functionality
T he AD876 offers three-state output control.
P in Com patible Upgr ade P ath
T he AD876 offers the option of laying out designs for eight
bits and migrating to 10-bit resolution if prototype results
warrant.
