The ADS7852Y/250 is a 8-channel 12-bit Analog-to-digital Converter (ADC) complete with sample-and-hold, internal 2.5V reference and a full 12-bit parallel output interface. Typical power dissipation is 13mW at 500kHz throughput rate. The ADC features both a nap mode and a sleep mode, further reducing the power consumption to 2mW. The input range is from 0V to twice the reference voltage. The reference voltage can be overdriven by an external voltage. It is ideal for multi-channel applications where low power and small size are critical. The high-speed data acquisition and laboratory equipment are just a few of the applications that would take advantage of the special features offered by the ADC.
