ADC12J1600NKE10

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADC12J1600NKE is a single-channel, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments operating at a sampling rate of 1.6 GSPS. It utilizes a folding interpolating architecture and features an RF sampling input structure with a full-power bandwidth of 6 GHz. The device supports direct RF sampling for L-band and S-band applications. Key electrical parameters include a differential nonlinearity (DNL) of +/- 0.25 LSB, an effective number of bits (ENOB) of 8.8 bits, a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 70 dB, and a signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) of 54.8 dB. Power consumption is specified at 1.6 W.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. The 'NKE' designation corresponds to the VQFN-68 package. Confirm export control status as this product may require additional documentation for shipment from the United States. Ensure compatibility with JESD204B lane configurations during system integration.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a single channel with high linearity and wide bandwidth. Compare ENOB and SFDR specifications against system noise floor requirements. Verify that the 1.2 V and 1.9 V dual-supply voltage requirements align with the available power rails in the target design. Consider the VQFN-68 thermal performance for the intended operating environment.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADC12J1600 series, which includes quad-channel, dual-channel, and single-channel variants. The series is designed for multi-channel communication and test systems. Other members in the family include the ADC12DJ1600 (dual-channel) and ADC12QJ1600 (quad-channel), offering different channel counts while maintaining similar sampling rates and resolutions.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same series include the ADC12DJ1600 for dual-channel needs or ADC12QJ1600 for quad-channel requirements. For single-channel applications, verify if other Texas Instruments RF-sampling ADCs meet the 1.6 GSPS and 12-bit criteria.
