GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
 is a dual, 12-bit, 80 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; the 
 typically consumes less 
than 2 mW in the full power-down state. The ADC provides 
several features designed to maximize flexibility and minimize 
system cost, such as programmable output clock and data align-
ment 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, 32-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. Two ADCs are contained in a small, space-
saving package.  
2.  Low Power. Th
 uses 115 mW/channel at 125 MSPS 
with scalable power options. 
3.  Pin Compatibility with th
, a 14-Bit Dual 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. SPI control offers a wide range of flexible 
features to meet specific system requirements.
