16-bit, 5MS/s ADC for Microcontroller Business in UMC40nm

Overview

AD16BSAR5M40LP is a 16-bit Successive Approximation Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) that operates up to 5MS/s. The ADC achieves full 16bit linearity, thanks to an in-built calibration engine present inside the ADC. The ADC is low-power and has a small footprint.
Access to read and write the Linearity and Offset Calibration codes allows reloading of the calibration codes without need to re-run the calibration cycle again. The read-write access is through SPI interface.
The ADC is capable of processing rail-to-rail Differential and Single-Ended Inputs.
