A D Converter with Input Multiplexer and Sample Hold
General Description
Using an innovative patented multistep conversion tech-
nique the 10-bit ADC10461 ADC10462 and ADC10464
CMOS analog-to-digital converters offer sub-microsecond
conversion times yet dissipate a maximum of only 235 mW
The ADC10461 ADC10462 and ADC10464 perform a
10-bit conversion in two lower-resolution ‘‘flashes’’ thus
yielding a fast A D without the cost power dissipation and
other problems associated with true flash approaches Dy-
namic
performance
(THD
S N)
is
guaranteed
The
ADC10461 is pin-compatible with the ADC1061 but much
faster thus providing a convenient upgrade path for the
ADC1061
The analog input voltage to the ADC10461 ADC10462 and
ADC10464 is sampled and held by an internal sampling cir-
cuit Input signals at frequencies from dc to over 200 kHz
can therefore be digitized accurately without the need for an
external sample-and-hold circuit
The ADC10462 and ADC10464 include a ‘‘speed-up’’ pin
Connecting an external resistor between this pin and ground
reduces the typical conversion time to as little as 350 ns
with only a small increase in linearity error
For ease of interface to microprocessors the ADC10461
ADC10462 and ADC10464 have been designed to appear
as a memory location or I O port without the need for exter-
nal interface logic
