mance. Amplifiers that have been used successfully to drive
the analog inputs of the ADC16061 include the CLC427,
CLC440, LM6152, LM6154, LM6181 and the LM6182. A
small series reistor at each amplifier output and a capacitor
across the analog inputs (as shown in
Figure 7 ) will often im-
prove performance.
Operating with the reference pins outside of the speci-
fied range. As mentioned in section 1.2, V

should be in
the range of
1.8V ≤ V

≤ 1.0V. Operating outside of these limits could
lead to excessive distortion or noise.
Using a clock source with excessive jitter, using an ex-
cessively long clock signal trace, or having other sig-
nals coupled to the clock signal trace. This will cause the
sampling interval to vary, causing excessive output noise
and a reduction in SNR performance.
Connecting pins marked ″ NC ″ to any potential. Some of
these pins are used for factory testing. They should all be left
floating. Connecting them to ground, power supply, or some
other voltage could result in a non-functional device.
