LTC2370-16
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION OVERVIEW
1LSB = FS/65536 111...111 The LTC2370-16 is a low noise, low power, high speed 16-bit 111...110 successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. Operating 111...101 from a single 2.5V supply, the LTC2370-16 supports a 111...100 0V to VREF pseudo-differential unipolar input range with VREF ranging from 2.5V to 5.1V, making it ideal for high OUTPUT CODE UNIPOLAR performance applications which require a wide dynamic ZERO 000...011 range. The LTC2370-16 achieves ±0.85LSB INL max, no 000...010 missing codes at 16 bits and 94dB SNR. 000...001 000...000 Fast 2Msps throughput with no cycle latency makes the 0V 1 FS – 1LSB LSB LTC2370-16 ideally suited for a wide variety of high speed INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 237016 F02 applications. An internal oscillator sets the conversion time,
