ADC3241IRGZR

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADC3241IRGZR is a dual-channel, 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments. It operates at a maximum sampling rate of 25 MSPS with a pipeline architecture. The device features serial LVDS output interfaces and accepts differential analog inputs. It functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and utilizes a VQFN-48 package. Key performance metrics include an Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) of 12 bits, a Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) of 93 dB, and a Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD) of 73.9 dB. Typical power consumption is 120 mW.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• Dual-channel configuration for simultaneous signal acquisition
• Low power consumption design suitable for energy-efficient systems
• Serial LVDS interface for high-speed digital data transmission

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Software Defined Radio (SDR)
• Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) base stations
• Point-to-point microwave radio links

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' indicates reel packaging when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to procurement. Ensure supply chain partners provide valid traceability records. Check for moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and handling procedures.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dual-channel conversion at moderate speeds up to 25 MSPS. Compare against single-channel variants if only one input path is needed. Consider the ADC3244 or ADC32J43 if higher sampling rates or different interface standards are required. Verify that the 14-bit resolution meets system dynamic range specifications.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADC32xx family of low-power, high-performance ADCs designed for wireless infrastructure. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the ADC3242 and ADC3243 but differs in channel count and specific performance tuning. The IRGZR suffix denotes industrial temperature range and tape-and-reel packaging.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The ADC3241IRGZT is a pin-compatible alternative differing primarily in packaging format (tube vs. reel). Other family members such as the ADC3242 offer similar performance with potential variations in channel configuration or interface options.
