AD976ABN

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The AD976ABN is a 16-bit, 200 kSPS BiCMOS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) manufactured by Analog Devices. It operates from a single +5 V supply and dissipates a maximum of 100 mW. The device features a successive-approximation switched capacitor architecture with an internal 2.5 V reference and on-chip clock. It provides a standard ±10 V analog input range and utilizes a high-speed parallel interface for data output. The part is factory calibrated to minimize linearity errors and is available in a 28-lead skinny DIP package.
