ADC IP Cores

Sign in required. Page 2 and beyond are available to signed-in users.

ADC IP cores (Analog-to-Digital Converter IP) convert analog signals into digital data in modern SoC and ASIC designs, enabling interaction with real-world signals such as sensors, audio, and RF inputs.

These IP cores support various architectures including SAR ADC, pipeline ADC, and sigma-delta ADC, each optimized for different trade-offs between speed, resolution, and power consumption.

This catalog allows you to compare ADC IP cores from leading vendors based on resolution (bits), sampling rate, power efficiency, and process node compatibility.

Whether you are designing sensor interfaces, audio systems, industrial control applications, or RF front-ends, you can find the right ADC IP for your design.

What is an ADC IP core?

An ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) IP core is a reusable analog or mixed-signal block that converts continuous analog signals into discrete digital values in SoCs and ASICs.

ADCs are essential for bridging the physical world and digital processing systems, enabling accurate measurement and signal processing.

Main ADC architectures

SAR ADC

Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC offers a good balance between resolution, power efficiency, and speed, making it widely used in embedded and sensor applications.

Pipeline ADC

Pipeline ADC provides high-speed conversion with moderate resolution, suitable for high-bandwidth applications.

Sigma-Delta ADC

Sigma-Delta ADC delivers very high resolution with lower bandwidth, ideal for precision measurement and audio applications.

Key performance metrics
