New 16-bit ADCs from ADI expands its low-power data converter portfolio

Analog Devices has expanded its low-power data converter portfolio with 26 Analog to Digital Converters (ADC), which are suitable for the applications such as effective high-performance, power-efficient communications, portable device, instrumentation and healthcare applications.

The three highlighted 16-bit ADCs among the new 26 ADCs are,

AD9269: A16-bit 80 MSPS low-power, dual ADC with quadrature-error correction (QEC)
AD9265: A single-channel, 16-bit low-power ADC spanning 80 to 125 MSPS (megasamples per second)
AD9266: Small, single-channel 16-bit low-power ADC spanning 20 to 80 MSPS

These new ADCs products provide a future-proof platform to differentiate their systems without changing the core design by migrating either resolution or bandwidth support by means of space efficient pin compatible families. In addition, the new ADCs' energy efficiencies provide power consumption improvement without impacting system-level performance.

The AD9269, AD9266 features a high performance sample-and-hold circuit and on-chip voltage reference, and uses multistage differential pipeline architecture with output error correction logic to provide 16-bit accuracy at 80 MSPS data rates and to guarantee no missing codes over the full operating temperature range.

The AD9265 is designed to support communications applications where high performance combined with low cost, small size, and versatility is desired. The ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined architecture with integrated output error correction logic and features a wide bandwidth differential sample-and-hold analog input amplifier supporting a variety of user-selectable input ranges.

ADI says, in addition to the AD9269, AD9265 and AD9266 flagship converters and their various speed grades, ADI introduced today 23 single-channel low-power ADCs, bringing the number of low power data converters ADI has brought to market in the last 180 days to 44. The power consumption savings across these ADCs is as high as 87% compared to equivalent competitive offerings operating comparable ADC functions.
