General Description
The MAX1122 is a monolithic 10-bit, 170Msps analog-
to-digital converter (ADC) optimized for outstanding
dynamic performance at high IF frequencies up to
500MHz. The product operates with conversion rates of
up to 170Msps while consuming only 460mW.
At 170Msps and an input frequency of 100MHz, the
MAX1122 achieves a spurious-free dynamic range
(SFDR) of 72dBc. Its excellent signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) of 57.5dB at 10MHz remains flat (within 1dB) for
input tones up to 500MHz. This makes the MAX1122
ideal for wideband applications such as digital predis-
tortion in cellular base-station transceiver systems.
The MAX1122 requires a single 1.8V supply. The ana-
log input is designed for either differential or single-
ended operation and can be AC- or DC-coupled. The
ADC also features a selectable on-chip divide-by-2
clock circuit, which allows the user to apply clock fre-
quencies as high as 340MHz. This helps to reduce the
phase noise of the input clock source. A differential
LVDS sampling clock is recommended for best perfor-
mance. The converter’s digital outputs are LVDS com-
patible, and the data format can be selected to be
either two’s complement or offset binary.
The MAX1122 is available in a 68-pin QFN with
exposed paddle (EP) and is specified over the industri-
al (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.
For pin-compatible, higher speed versions of the
MAX1122, refer to the MAX1123 (210Msps) and the
MAX1124 (250Msps) data sheets. For a higher speed,
pin-compatible 8-bit version of the MAX1122, refer to
the MAX1121 data sheet.
