LTC2386CUH-16#PBF

Overview

The LTC2386CUH-16#PBF is a 16-bit, 10Msps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It operates from 5V and 2.5V supplies with a power dissipation of 97mW at full throughput. The device features a serial LVDS digital interface, an internal reference buffer, and guaranteed 16-bit no missing codes performance. Key electrical specifications include a typical SNR of 93.8dB at 1MHz input frequency, a maximum INL of ±0.5LSB, and a differential input range of 8.192VP-P centered around VREFBUF/2.

Feature Summary

• 16-bit resolution with 10Msps sampling rate and zero pipeline latency
• Serial LVDS interface supporting one-lane and two-lane output modes
• Internal 2.048V reference with integrated buffer providing 4.096V output
• Guaranteed 16-bit no missing codes with ±0.5LSB maximum INL

Applications

• High speed data acquisition systems
• Imaging applications requiring wide dynamic range
• Instrumentation and test equipment
• Control loops needing low latency
• Communications systems with significant signal bandwidth

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific temperature grade suffix when ordering. The #PBF designation indicates lead-free finish and tube packaging. Confirm that the CUH variant meets the required operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C for the intended application environment. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official distributor catalogs to ensure authenticity and correct package identification.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high-speed conversion without pipeline delay. Ensure the system supports the 5V analog supply and 2.5V digital/logic supplies. Verify that the driving circuitry can handle the input current spikes during the acquisition phase. Consider the LVDS interface requirements for trace impedance matching and termination if utilizing the high-speed serial outputs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LTC2386-16 family of SAR ADCs. The 'C' suffix denotes the commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C), while the 'I' suffix would indicate an industrial range (-40°C to 85°C). The 'UH' code specifies the 32-lead 5mm x 5mm plastic QFN package. The '#PBF' suffix confirms RoHS compliance and tube shipping format.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Designers should consult Analog Devices marketing or technical support for qualified alternatives within the same product family or comparable performance tiers.
