KAD5512P-21Q48

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The KAD5512P-21Q48 is a single-channel, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from the KAD5512P family. It features a maximum sampling rate of 210 MS/s and utilizes a pipeline architecture. The device operates on a single 1.8 V supply for both analog and digital domains. Key electrical specifications include a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 68.8 dB, differential nonlinearity (DNL) of 0.75 LSB, integral nonlinearity (INL) of 2 LSB, and a gain error of 2% FSR. It is housed in a QFN-48 package with an exposed paddle and supports industrial temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Renesas distributors or official channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status via current datasheets. Check for moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and handling. Ensure the specific suffix matches design requirements as pinouts may vary across revisions.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this model when a 12-bit resolution at approximately 210 MSPS is required. Compare against the KAD5512HP variant if higher SNR performance is necessary. Verify that the QFN-48 package fits the PCB layout constraints. Ensure the system can accommodate the 1.8V power supply rails specified for operation.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This component belongs to the KAD5512P series of low-power, high-performance ADCs. The family includes variants with different sampling rates such as 125 MSPS and 250 MSPS. These converters share pin compatibility within the resolution class and utilize FemtoCharge technology for improved jitter performance.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Official documentation lists this part as obsolete with no recommended replacements available. Designers should evaluate alternative high-speed ADC families from Renesas or other manufacturers that meet the 12-bit, 210 MSPS specification.
