DESCRIPTION

The ADC1173 is a low power, 15 MSPS analog-to-

digital converter that digitizes signals to 8 bits while

consuming just 33 mW of power (typ). The ADC1173

uses a unique architecture that achieves 7.6 Effective

Bits. Output formatting is straight binary coding.

The excellent DC and AC characteristics of this

device, together with its low power consumption and

+3V single supply operation, make it ideally suited for

many video, imaging and communications

applications, including use in portable equipment.

Furthermore, the ADC1173 is resistant to latch-up

and the outputs are short-circuit proof. The top and

bottom of the ADC1173's reference ladder is available for connections, enabling a wide range of

input possibilities.

The ADC1173 is offered in a 24-pin TSSOP package

and is designed to operate over the -40°C to +75°C

commercial temperature range.
