General description
The ADC1213S is a single channel 12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) optimized for
high dynamic performance and low power at sample rates up to 125 Msps. Pipelined
architecture and output error correction ensure the ADC1213S is accurate enough to
guarantee zero missing codes over the entire operating range. Supplied from a 3 V source
for analog and a 1.8 V source for the output driver, it outputs data in serial mode via a
single differential lane, which complies with the JESD204A standard. The integration of
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows the user to easily configure the ADCs and the
serial output modes. The device also includes a programmable full-scale SPI to allow a
flexible input voltage range from 1 V (p-p) to 2 V (p-p).
Excellent dynamic performance is maintained from the baseband to input frequencies of
170 MHz or more, making the ADC1213S ideal for use in communications, imaging, and
medical applications.
