The ADC912A is a monolithic 12-bit accurate CMOS A/D converter. It contains a complete successive-approximation A/D converter built with a high-accuracy D/A converter, a precision bipolar transistor high-speed comparator, and successiveapproximation logic including three-state bus interface for logic compatibility. The accuracy of the ADC912A results from the addition of precision bipolar transistors to Analog Devices' advanced-oxide isolated silicon-gate CMOS process. Particular attention was paid to the reduction of transition noise between adjacent codes achieving a 1/6 LSB uncertainty. The low noise design produces the same digital output for dc analog inputs
