GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9634 is a 12-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with
sampling speeds of up to 250 MSPS. The AD9634 is designed to
support communications applications where low cost, small size,
wide bandwidth, and versatility are desired.
Programming for setup and control is accomplished using a
3-wire, SPI-compatible serial interface.
The AD9634 is available in a 32-lead LFCSP and is specified over
the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. This product
is protected by a U.S. patent.
The ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined
architecture with integrated output error correction logic. The
ADC features wide bandwidth inputs that can support a variety
of user-selectable input ranges. An integrated voltage reference
eases design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) is
provided to compensate for variations in the ADC clock duty cycle,
allowing the converter to maintain excellent performance.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Integrated 12-bit, 170 MSPS/210 MSPS/250 MSPS ADC.
2. Fast overrange and threshold detect.
3. Proprietary differential input maintains excellent SNR
performance for input frequencies of up to 350 MHz.
4. 3-pin, 1.8 V SPI port for register programming and readback.
5. Pin compatibility with the AD9642, allowing a simple
migration up to 14 bits, and with the AD6672.
The ADC output data are routed directly to the external 12-bit
LVDS output port.
Flexible power-down options allow significant power savings,
when desired.
