KAD5512P-25Q72

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The KAD5512P-25Q72 is a single-channel, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from the KAD5512P family. It operates at a maximum sampling rate of 250 MS/s and utilizes a pipeline architecture. The device features differential input types and supports both parallel and SPI interface protocols for configuration and data transfer. It functions on a single 1.8 V supply voltage for both analog and digital domains. Key performance metrics include a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of 68.3 dB and an Integral Non-Linearity (INL) of 2.5 LSB. The component is housed in a QFN-72 package and is rated for operation within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
