The ADA4922-1 is manufactured on Analog Devices, Inc.,
proprietary, second-generation XFCB process that enables the
amplifier to achieve excellent noise and distortion performance
on high supply voltages.
Low supply current: IS = 10 mA on 12 V supplies
APPLICATIONS
The ADA4922-1 is available in an 8-lead 3 mm × 3 mm LFCSP
as well as an 8-lead SOIC package. Both packages are equipped
with an exposed paddle for more efficient heat transfer. The
ADA4922-1 is rated to work over the extended industrial
temperature range, −4ꢀ°C to +85°C.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4922-1 is a differential driver for 16-bit to 18-bit
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that have differential input
ranges up to 2ꢀ ꢁ. Configured as an easy-to-use, single-ended-
to-differential amplifier, the ADA4922-1 requires no external
components to drive ADCs. The ADA4922-1 provides essential
benefits such as low distortion and high SNR that are required
for driving ADCs with resolutions up to 18 bits.
