Intersil Expands Family of High-Speed ADCs With Superior Signal-to-Noise Ratios and Very Low Power Consumption
September 12 2011 - 10:00AM
Marketwired
Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ: ISIL), today expanded its growing
family of high speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with a new
series of devices that provide industry leading signal-to-noise
ratios while consuming little power. The new devices offer
excellent high input frequency performance, enabling simplified
system architectures that improve manufacturability while reducing
cost over traditional baseband architectures.
The ISLA212Pxx and ISLA214Pxx are 12-bit and 14-bit ADCs with
maximum sampling rates of 130, 200 and 250MSPS. The series offers
the industry's best signal-to-noise ratios for high speed 12- and
14-bit ADCs (over 73.0dBFS at 14-bits and 70.5dBFS at 12-bits for
input frequencies up to 105MHz) while consuming less than 450mW
from a single 1.8V supply.
The devices use Intersil's proprietary FemtoCharge™ technology,
which enables very low power consumption without sacrificing the
ADC's dynamic performance. They increase accuracy and save power in
high-performance data acquisition and instrumentation systems,
communications test equipment, broadband or wideband communications
systems, software defined radios and radar array processing
equipment.
The ISLA212Pxx and the ISLA214Pxx are members of Intersil's
newest pin-compatible ADC family. Pin-compatibility allows
customers to re-use designs developed with any ADC from the family,
substituting another ADC with a different resolution or sample rate
without modifying the hardware design. Design re-use simplifies
system development, reduces design risk and speeds end product
time-to-market. To further enhance a designer's first-pass success,
Intersil also provides dedicated product line applications support
for all customers, large, medium and small.
Features and Specifications
- Multi-channel designs are simplified by synchronization,
channel-to-channel balance and optimized output timing
- Low clock jitter of 75fs maximizes high input frequency
performance
- A serial peripheral interface (SPI) port allows for flexible
configurability
Pricing and Availability The ISLA212Pxx
and ISLA214Pxx series are available now in a 10mm x 10mm, 72-pin
QFN and will also be available in a 7mm x 7mm 48-pin QFN package.
Prices for these converters start at $24.55 each in 1,000-unit
quantities.
