LTC2367-18
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION OVERVIEW
1LSB = FS/262144 111...111 The LTC2367-18 is a low noise, low power, high speed 18-bit 111...110 successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. Operating 111...101 from a single 2.5V supply, the LTC2367-18 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 LTC2367-18 achieves ±2.5LSB INL max, no 000...010 missing codes at 18 bits and 97dB SNR. 000...001 000...000 Fast 500ksps throughput with no cycle latency makes 0V 1 FS – 1LSB LSB the LTC2367-18 ideally suited for a wide variety of high INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 236718 F02 speed applications.
