3 Description

The ADS921x is a family of 18-bit, high-speed, dualchannel,

simultaneous-sampling, analog-to-digital

converters (ADCs) with an integrated driver for the

ADC inputs. The integrated ADC driver simplifies

the signal chain, reduces power consumption for

precision applications, and supports high-frequency

signals beyond 1MHz. By not requiring an external

decoupling capacitor, the integrated ADC reference

buffer is optimized for wide bandwidth applications.

The ADS921x uses a serial LVDS (SLVDS)

data interface that enables high-speed digital

communication while minimizing digital switching

noise. Read the dual-channel ADC data using

separate SLVDS outputs per ADC channel or one

SLVDS output for both ADC channels.
