Brand: ADC
The ADC 990 XE is a high-performance analog-to-digital converter (ADC) introduced by Analog Devices. It is part of the company's SHARC (Super Harvard Architecture) family of mixed-signal processors, which combines digital signal processing (DSP) and analog capabilities in a single device.The ADC 990 XE offers 16-bit resolution with a sampling rate of up to 160 MSps (mega samples per second) and features wide dynamic range (DR) performance of up to 85 dB. It also has advanced error correction and self-calibration capabilities, which improve reliability and reduce system costs by eliminating the need for external jitter attenuators and external compensation for linearity error.Other key features of the ADC 990 XE include:- Built-in decimating and interpolating filter blocks that enable the ADC to output values at the original analog bandwidth while using a lower sampling rate, thereby reducing system bandwidth requirements and power consumption- A dual-channel input option that allows two analog signals to be converted simultaneously, further improving system throughput and efficiency- Differential and single-ended input options to accommodate a wide variety of analog signal sourcesSome applications where the ADC 990 XE is commonly used include:- Radar and sonar systems, which require high-resolution, high-bandwidth ADCs for measuring the time-of-flight and amplitude of signals for target detection and tracking- Communications systems, such as wireless base stations and audio digital signal processing (DSP) applications, which require high-resolution, low-latency ADCs for signal processing and signal fidelity preservation- Data converter and processing applications, where the ADC 990 XE's SHARC processing capability and high-speed data conversion can improve system performance and functionality by allowing for real-time processing and parallelization of computational tasks.
