ADS8320EB/250

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADS8320EB/250 is a 16-bit successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 5.25 V for both analog and digital domains. The device supports a maximum sampling rate of 100 kS/s with a differential or single-ended input configuration. Key performance metrics include a signal-to-noise ratio of 92 dB, a differential nonlinearity of ±2 LSB, and an integral nonlinearity of ±0.012% FSR. Power consumption is specified at 4.5 mW typical and 8.5 mW maximum. It utilizes a serial SPI interface and is housed in an 8-pin VSSOP package.
