The ADS831 is a pipeline, CMOS Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter that operates from a single +5V power supply. This converter
provides excellent performance with a single-ended input and can be operated with a differential input
for added spurious performance. This high performance converter includes an 8-bit quantizer, high bandwidth
track/hold, and a high accuracy internal reference. It also allows for the user to disable the internal reference and utilize external
references. This external reference option provides excellent gain and offset matching when used in multi-channel applications or in
applications where DC full scale range adjustment is required. The ADS831 employs digital error correction techniques to provide
excellent differential linearity for demanding imaging applications. Its low distortion and high SNR give the extra margin
needed for medical imaging, communications, video, and test instrumentation.
The ADS831 is specified at a maximum sampling frequency of 80MHz and a single-ended input range of 1.5V to 3.5V. The
ADS831 is available in an SSOP-20 package and is pin-for-pin compatible with the 8-bit, 60MHz ADS830.
