LHA6960

The LHA6960 is an 18-bit, 5 MSPS, charge redistribution successive approximation (SAR), analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The SAR architecture allows unmatched performance both in noise and in linearity. The LHA6960 contains a low power, high speed, 18-bit sampling ADC, an internal conversion clock, and an internal reference buffer. On the CNV± edge, the LHA6960 samples the voltage difference between the IN+ and IN− pins. The voltages on these pins swing in opposite phase between 0 V and 4.096 V and between 0 V and 5 V. The reference voltage is applied to the part externally. All conversion results are available on a single LVDS self clocked or echoed clock serial interface. The LHA6960 is available in a 32-lead QFN with operation specified from −40°C to +125°C.
