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.
