The LTC2238CUH#PBF is an integrated circuit (IC) component developed by Linear Technology (now part of Analog Devices Inc.). It is a high-performance, low-noise 14-bit successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). This IC offers several key features that make it suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries. Here is an overview of its significant features:
1. High Resolution: The LTC2238CUH#PBF provides 14-bit resolution, allowing for precise and accurate conversion of analog signals into digital form. This high resolution is beneficial in applications where capturing subtle variations is critical.
2. Sampling Rate: This IC has a sampling rate of up to 105 mega-samples per second (MS/s), enabling it to handle high-frequency signals effectively. The fast sampling rate ensures that the ADC can capture fast-changing analog waveforms accurately.
3. Low Noise Performance: The LTC2238CUH#PBF boasts excellent low-noise performance, making it suitable for applications that require high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The low-noise operation allows for reliable conversion of weak analog signals, enhancing the overall accuracy of the measurement.
4. Low Distortion: With a total harmonic distortion (THD) of -87dB and spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 101dB, this IC significantly reduces any unwanted distortion or artifacts during the analog-to-digital conversion process
