DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
2356-12/LTC2356-14 are 12-bit/14-bit, 3.5Msps
serial ADCs with differential inputs. The devices draw
only 5.5mA from a single 3.3V supply and come in a
tiny 10-lead MSOP package. A Sleep shutdown feature
further reduces power consumption to 13µW. The com-
bination of speed, low power and tiny package makes the
LTC2356-12/LTC2356-14 suitable for high speed, portable
applications.
The 80dB common mode rejection allows users to eliminate
ground loops and common mode noise by measuring
signals differentially from the source.
The devices convert –1.25V to 1.25V bipolar inputs
differentially. The absolute voltage swing for A
IN+
and
A
IN–
extends from ground to the supply voltage.
The serial interface sends out the conversion results during
the 16 clock cycles following a CONV rising edge for com-
patibility with standard serial interfaces. If two additional
clock cycles for acquisition time are allowed after the data
stream in between conversions, the full sampling rate of
3.5Msps can be achieved with a 63MHz clock.
