8-bit, 10 GSPS Analog-to-Digital Converter IP block

Overview

The A8B10G is an ultra low-power, high-performance analog to digital converter (ADC) intellectual property (IP) design block. It is a flash-type ADC, with 8-bits resolution and a sampling rate of up to 10 gigasamples per second (GSPS).

The A8B10G is a unique solution that provides the dual benefit of reaching an extremely high sampling speed without requiring large amounts of energy. It maintains its high-performance while consuming an exceptionally low power of only 39 mW, making it an outstanding solution for designs with high efficiency, low power and high performance requirements.

The cost-effective IP block has been designed and verified for the GF22FDX fabrication process with FDSOI technology to provide superior performance/power specifications.
