The ADADC85SZ-10 is an IC (integrated circuit) component that is a high-speed, high-performance analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It is designed and manufactured by Analog Devices, a leading semiconductor company.
Key features of the ADADC85SZ-10 include:
1. Resolution: This ADC offers a high-resolution of 14 bits, which means it can convert analog signals into digital values with great precision. The increased resolution allows for more accurate measurement and detection.
2. Sampling rate: The ADADC85SZ-10 has a fast sampling rate of up to 10 Mega Samples Per Second (MSPS). This high speed enables efficient capture of rapidly changing analog signals, making it suitable for applications that require real-time measurements.
3. Voltage Reference: It incorporates an internal voltage reference, eliminating the need for an external reference voltage source. This simplifies the design and reduces the overall system cost.
4. Input Range: The ADC's input range is 0V to VREF, where VREF is the reference voltage. The wide input voltage range allows for flexible measurements of various analog signals.
5. Serial Interface: It utilizes a serial interface using the serial peripheral interface (SPI) protocol for communication with an external microcontroller or microprocessor. The SPI interface offers easy integration with digital systems.
6. Power Supply: The ADADC85SZ-10 operates from a single power supply ranging from 2.7V to 5.25V
