The ADC10040 is a monolithic CMOS analog-to-digital converter capable of converting analog input signals into 10-bit digital words at 40 Megasamples per second (MSPS). This converter uses a differential, pipeline architecture with digital error correction and an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit to provide a complete conversion solution, and to minimize power consumption, while providing excellent dynamic performance. A unique sample-and-hold stage yields a fullpower bandwidth of 400 MHz. Operating on a single 3.0V power supply, this device consumes just 55.5 mW at 40 MSPS, including the reference current. The Standby feature reduces power consumption to just 13.5 mW.
