The LTC
®
1608 is a 500ksps, 16-bit sampling A/D con-
verter that draws only 270mW from
±5V
supplies. This
high performance device includes a high dynamic range
sample-and-hold, a precision reference and a high speed
parallel output. Two digitally selectable power shutdown
modes provide power savings for low power systems.
The LTC1608’s full-scale input range is
±
2.5V. Outstand-
ing AC performance includes 90dB S/(N+D) and – 100dB
THD at a sample rate of 500ksps.
The unique differential input sample-and-hold can acquire
single-ended or differential input signals up to its 15MHz
bandwidth. The 68dB common mode rejection allows
users to eliminate ground loops and common mode noise
by measuring signals differentially from the source.
The ADC has
µP
compatible,16-bit parallel output port.
There is no pipeline delay in conversion results. A separate
convert start input and a data ready signal (BUSY) ease
connections to FlFOs, DSPs and microprocessors.

Note 6:
Linearity, offset and full-scale specification apply for a single-
ended A
IN+
input with A
IN–
grounded.
Note 7:
Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 8:
Typical RMS noise at the code transitions.
Note 9:
Bipolar offset is the offset voltage measured from – 0.5LSB when
the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111
1111 1111.
Note 10:
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is measured at 5kHz and distortion
is measured at 100kHz. These results are used to calculate Signal-to-Nosie
Plus Distortion (SINAD).
Note 11:
Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 12:
Recommended operating conditions.
Note 13:
The falling CONVST edge starts a conversion. If CONVST returns
high at a critical point during the conversion it can create small errors. For
best performance ensure that CONVST returns high either within 250ns
after conversion start or after BUSY rises.
Note 14:
The acquisition time would go up to 400ns and the conversion
time would go up to 1.8µs. However, the throughput time (acquisition +
conversion) is guaranteed by test to be 2µs max.
Note 15:
If RD↓ precedes CS↓, the output enable will be gated by CS↓.
