DESCRIPTION

The ADC08500 is a low power, high performance

CMOS analog-to-digital converter that digitizes

signals to 8 bits resolution at sampling rates up to

500 MSPS. Consuming a typical 0.8 Watts at 500

MSPS from a single 1.9 Volt supply, this device is

ensured to have no missing codes over the full operating temperature range. The unique folding and

interpolating architecture, the fully differential

comparator design, the innovative design of the

internal sample-and-hold amplifier and the self•

calibration scheme enable a very flat response of all dynamic parameters beyond Nyquist, producing a

high 7.5 ENOB with a 250 MHz input signal and a

500 MHz sample rate while providing a 10-18 B.E.R.

Output formatting is offset binary and the LVDS

digital outputs are compatible with IEEE 1596.3-1996, with the exception of an adjustable common mode

voltage between 0.8V and 1.2V.

The converter has a 1:2 demultiplexer that feeds two

LVDS buses and reduces the output data rate on

each bus to half the sampling rate.

The converter typically consumes less than 3.5 mW

in the Power Down Mode and is available in a 128-

lead, thermally enhanced exposed pad HLQFP and

operates over the Industrial (-40°C ≤ TA ≤ +85°C)

temperature range.
