LTC1288CN8#PBF

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The LTC1288CN8#PBF is a micropower, 12-bit successive approximation analog-to-digital converter in an 8-lead SOIC package. It features a software-selectable two-channel multiplexer and operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7V to 6V. The device typically draws 210μA during conversion at a maximum sampling rate of 6.6ksps and enters auto-shutdown mode consuming only 1nA when inactive. It utilizes a serial interface compatible with SPI and Microwire protocols, includes an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit, and guarantees a maximum differential nonlinearity of ±3/4LSB.
