ADS801U

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADS801U is a 12-bit, 40 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a pipeline architecture with single-ended or differential inputs and operates on a 5V supply. The device includes internal voltage references and offers a parallel interface for data output. Key electrical specifications include a signal-to-noise ratio of 64 dB, an effective number of bits of 10, and a differential nonlinearity of +/- 0.5 LSB. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a 28-pin SOIC package.
