ADC12J1600NKER

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADC12J1600NKER is a single-channel, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments. It operates at a sampling rate of 1.6 GSPS with a folding interpolating architecture. The device features a JESD204B serial interface and accepts differential inputs. Power requirements include 1.2 V and 1.9 V for both analog and digital supplies. Key performance metrics include 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. Differential nonlinearity is specified at +/- 0.25 LSB. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a VQFN-68 package.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• Ultra-high-speed 1.6 GSPS sampling capability for direct RF applications
• Integrated JESD204B interface for high-speed digital data transmission
• Low power consumption design suitable for multi-channel systems

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Test and measurement equipment

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'R' indicates reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation. Ensure export control requirements are met as this product may require additional documentation for shipment from the United States. Validate that the VQFN-68 package matches the target PCB footprint.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a single-channel input with 1.6 GSPS throughput. The 12-bit resolution and 70 dB SFDR support demanding RF environments. Consider the VQFN-68 package constraints during layout. Verify that the system clocking infrastructure can support the required jitter specifications to maintain the stated 8.8-bit ENOB performance.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADC12J1600 series, which includes single, dual, and quad-channel variants. The series is designed for low-power, high-speed data acquisition. The 'NKE' designation identifies the specific single-channel version in the VQFN-68 package, distinguishing it from other channel counts or package types within the same family.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Check for the ADC12J1600NKT variant if tape-and-reel packaging is preferred over the standard tray configuration. Other series members like the ADC12DJ1600 offer dual-channel options but differ in pinout and functionality.
