GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
 is a quad, 14-bit, 80 MSPS/105 MSPS/125 MSPS 
analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with an on-chip sample- 
and-hold circuit designed for low cost, low power, small size, 
and ease of use. The product operates at a conversion rate of  
up to 125 MSPS and is optimized for outstanding dynamic 
performance and low power in applications where a small 
package size is critical. 
The ADC requires a single 1.8 V power supply and LVPECL-/ 
CMOS-/LVDS-compatible sample rate clock for full performance 
operation. No external reference or driver components are 
required for many applications. 
The ADC automatically multiplies the sample rate clock for the 
appropriate LVDS serial data rate. A data clock output (DCO) for 
capturing data on the output and a frame clock output (FCO) 
for signaling a new output byte are provided. Individual-channel 
power-down is supported and typically consumes less than 2 mW 
when all channels are disabled. The ADC contains several features 
designed to maximize flexibility and minimize system cost, such

as programmable output clock and data alignment and digital 
test pattern generation. The available digital test patterns 
include built-in deterministic and pseudorandom patterns, along 
with custom user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port 
interface (SPI). 
 is available in a RoHS-compliant, 48-lead LFCSP.  
It is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to 
+85°C. This product is protected by a U.S. patent. 
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS 
1.  Small Footprint. Four ADCs are contained in a small, space-
saving package.  
2.  Low power of 110 mW/channel at 125 MSPS with scalable 
power options. 
3.  Pin compatible to the 
 12-bit quad ADC. 
4.  Ease of Use. A data clock output (DCO) operates at 
frequencies of up to 500 MHz and supports double data 
rate (DDR) operation. 
5.  User Flexibility. The SPI control offers a wide range of 
flexible features to meet specific system requirements.
