ADC08351CIMTC

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADC08351CIMTC is an 8-bit, 42 MSPS analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Texas Instruments following the acquisition of National Semiconductor. It utilizes a pipeline architecture with single-ended input and parallel digital output. The device operates on a single 3.3V supply, consuming approximately 40 mW of power. Key electrical specifications include a differential nonlinearity (DNL) of +/- 0.25 LSB and an integral nonlinearity (INL) of -1.35/1.9 LSB. It features an external reference input and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C in a 24-pin TSSOP package.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• High-speed 42 MSPS sampling rate with 8-bit resolution
• Low power consumption of 40 mW at 3.3V supply
• Pipeline architecture with parallel data output
• External voltage reference input for flexibility

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Portable instrumentation systems requiring low power
• Video signal processing applications
• Communications equipment
• Medical imaging systems

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as Texas Instruments acquired National Semiconductor. Confirm the specific suffix 'CIMTC' corresponds to the TSSOP-24 package and commercial temperature grade. Ensure the external reference requirement is accounted for in the system design. Check for RoHS compliance status associated with the NOPB or standard designation.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance between moderate resolution (8-bit) and high speed (42 MSPS) is required under strict power constraints. The single-supply operation simplifies power management compared to dual-supply alternatives. Consider the parallel interface complexity versus serial options if pin count is limited. Verify that the external reference capability meets the system's accuracy requirements.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADC083xx series of high-speed, low-power ADCs originally developed by National Semiconductor. The series is characterized by its ability to operate from a single 3.3V supply while maintaining performance suitable for video and communications. The CIMTC variant specifically denotes the plastic TSSOP surface-mount package.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other parts from the ADC083xx family such as the ADC08351CIZT. Cross-reference with Texas Instruments' current product selection guide for updated equivalents or newer generations of low-power 8-bit ADCs.
