Successive approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs) are important components in instrumentation, industrial control, and test equipment applications. The accuracy, noise, and speed of a SAR ADC often determine overall system performance.
Linear Technology's LTC®2379-18 has achieved a new breakthrough in SAR ADC technology, achieving 18-bit performance and 101dB SNR at a sampling rate of 1.6Msps. In this video demonstration, the designer of the LTC2379-18 demonstrates the device's outstanding performance and shares his insights into the fine design of this 18-bit ADC.
