12-bit, 1.5 MSPS Analog-to- Digital (ADC) Converter

Overview

The A12B1p5M is a low-power analog to digital converter (ADC) intellectual property (IP) design block.

It is a successive approximation register (SAR) ADC, with a 12-bit resolution, and a sampling speed of 1.5 megasamples per second (MSPS).

The advanced IP block has been designed
for the XFAB 180nm process to provide
superior performance/power specifications.
