The ADS7808UB is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the ADS7808 family. It is a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) manufactured by Texas Instruments. This IC is widely used in various applications that require accurate conversion of analog signals into digital data.
Key features of the ADS7808UB include:
1. Resolution: The ADS7808UB offers a 12-bit resolution, which means it can distinguish between 2^12 (4096) different analog voltage levels and convert an input voltage into a corresponding digital value.
2. Conversion Speed: This IC can perform conversions at a maximum sampling rate of 200 kilosamples per second (ksps). This makes it suitable for applications that require high-speed ADCs for real-time data acquisition.
3. Input Multiplexer: The ADS7808UB has an integrated input multiplexer that allows the selection of up to eight single-ended or four differential input channels. This flexibility enables the conversion of multiple analog signals with a single IC.
4. Low Power Consumption: With a typical power consumption of 25 milliwatts (mW) during normal operation, the ADS7808UB offers low-power performance, making it suitable for battery-powered applications where power efficiency is crucial.
5. Wide Input Voltage Range: The IC supports an input voltage range of 0 to VREF, where VREF is the applied reference voltage
