LTC2387-18 18-Bit, 15Msps SAR ADC FeaTuresDescripTion n 15Msps Throughput Rate The LTC®2387-18 is a low noise, high speed, 18-bit 15Msps n No Pipeline Delay, No Cycle Latency successive approximation register (SAR) ADC ideally n 95.7dB SNR (Typ) at fIN = 1MHz suited for a wide range of applications. The combination n 102dB SFDR (Typ) at fIN = 1MHz of excellent linearity and wide dynamic range makes the n Nyquist Sampling Up to 7.5MHz Input LTC2387-18 ideal for high speed imaging and instru- n Guaranteed 18-Bit, No Missing Codes mentation applications. No latency operation provides a n ±3LSB INL (Max) unique solution for high speed control loop applications. n 8.192VP-P Differential Inputs The very low distortion at high input frequencies enables n 5V and 2.5V Supplies communications applications requiring wide dynamic n Internal 20ppm/°C (Max) Reference range and significant signal bandwidth. n Serial LVDS Interface To support high speed operation while minimizing the n 125mW Power Dissipation number of data lines, the LTC2387-18 features a serial n 32-Pin (5mm × 5mm) QFN Package LVDS digital interface. The LVDS interface has one-lane and two-lane output modes, allowing the user to optimize the interface data rate for each application. applicaTions L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks of Linear n High Speed Data Acquisition Technology Corporation.
