ADC-HX, ADC-HZ Series
12-ꢀit, 8 and 20μsec Analog-to-Digital Converters
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The ADC-HX and ADC-HZ Series are self-
contained, high-performance, 12-bit A/D convert-
ers manufactured with thick and thin-film hybrid
technology. They use the successive approximation
conversion technique to achieve a 12-bit conver-
sion in 20 and 8 microseconds, respectively. Five
input voltage ranges are programmable by external
pin connection. An internal buffer amplifier is also
provided for applications in which 50 megohm
input impedance is required.
ꢀoth models have identical operation except for
conversion speed. They can be short-cycled to give
faster conversions in lower-resolution applica-
tions. Use of the internal buffer amplifier increases
conversion time by 3 microseconds, the settling
time of the amplifier. Output coding is comple-
mentary binary, complementary offset binary, or
complementary two’s complement. Serial data is
also brought out. The package is a 32-pin ceramic
TDIP. Models are available for use in commercial
FEATURES
12-bit resolution
These converters utilize a fast 12-bit monolithic (0 to +70°C), industrial (–40 to +100°C), or military
8 or 20 microsecond conversion times
DAC which includes a precision zener reference
source. The circuit also contains a fast mono-
lithic comparator, a monolithic 12-bit successive
approximation register, a clock and a monolithic
buffer amplifier. Nonlinearity is specified at
1/2LSꢀ maximum.
(–55 to +125°C) operating temperature ranges.
MIL-STD-883 and DESC Standard Military Drawing
models are also available.
