FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
TheLTC®2142-14/LTC2141-14/LTC2140-14are2-channel
simultaneous sampling 14-bit A/D converters designed
for digitizing high frequency, wide dynamic range signals.
They are perfect for demanding communications applica-
tions with AC performance that includes 73.2dB SNR and
90dB spurious free dynamic range (SFDR). Ultralow jitter

DC specs include 1LSB INL (typ), 0.3LSB DNL (typ)
and no missing codes over temperature. The transition
noise is 1.2LSB
.
RMS
The digital outputs can be either full rate CMOS, double
data rate CMOS, or double data rate LVDS. A separate
output power supply allows the CMOS output swing to
range from 1.2V to 1.8V.
APPLICATIONS
+
–
The ENC and ENC inputs may be driven differentially
or single-ended with a sine wave, PECL, LVDS, TTL, or
CMOS inputs. An optional clock duty cycle stabilizer al-
lows high performance at full speed for a wide range of
clock duty cycles.
