To drive this ADC in DC-coupled applications, we suggest ADA4937-1 or ADA4938-1. To drive this ADC in AC-coupled applications, we suggest AD8352 or AD8375.

The AD9480 is an 8-bit monolithic analog-to-digital converter optimized for high speed, low power, small size, and ease of use. The product operates at a 250 MSPS conversion rate, with excellent linearity and dynamic performance over its full operating range.

To minimize system cost and power dissipation, the AD9480 includes an internal reference and track-and-hold circuit. The user only provides a +3.3 V power supply and a differential encode clock. No external reference or driver components are required for many applications.

The digital outputs are LVDS (ANSI 644) compatible with an option of twos complement or binary output format. The output data bits are provided in parallel fashion along with an LVDS output clock, which simplifies data capture.

Fabricated on an advanced BiCMOS process, the AD9480 is available in a 44-pin surface mount package (TQFP) specified over the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).

The model number is a specific version of a generic that can be purchased or sampled.

Status indicates the current lifecycle of the product. This can be one of 4 stages:

• Pre-Release: The model has not been released to general production, but samples may be available.
• Production: The model is currently being produced, and generally available for purchase and sampling.
• Last Time Buy: The model has been scheduled for obsolescence, but may still be purchased for a limited time.
• Obsolete: The specific part is obsolete and no longer available. Other models listed in the table may still be available (if they have a status that is not obsolete).

The package for this IC (i.e. DIP, SOIC, BGA). An Evaluation Board is a board engineered to show the performance of the model, the part is included on the board.
