GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD73521 is a dual, 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive
approximation ADC that operates from a single 2.5 V power
supply and features throughput rates up to 3 MSPS. The part
contains two ADCs, each preceded by a low noise, wide band-
width track-and-hold circuit that can handle input frequencies
in excess of 110 MHz.
1. Two Complete ADC Functions.
These functions allow simultaneous sampling and conversion
of two channels. The conversion result of both channels is
simultaneously available on separate data lines or in suc-
cession on one data line if only one serial port is available.
2. High Throughput With Low Power Consumption.
The AD7352 offers a 3 MSPS throughput rate with 26 mW
power consumption.
The conversion process and data acquisition use standard
control inputs allowing for easy interfacing to microprocessors
3. No Conversion Latency.

The AD7352 features two standard successive approx-
imation ADCs with accurate control of the sampling
and a conversion is also initiated at this point. The conversion
time is determined by the SCLK frequency.

The AD7352 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very
low power dissipation at high throughput rates. With a 2.5 V
supply and a 3 MSPS throughput rate, the part consumes 10 mA
typically. The part also offers a flexible power/throughput rate
management options.
