Analog-to-digital converter supports wide input voltage range

Latest from Texas Instruments (TI) is the ADS7041, a 10-bit, 1MSPS, analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The device supports a wide analog input voltage range (1.65V to 3.6V) and includes a capacitor-based, successive-approximation register (SAR) ADC with an inherent sample-and-hold circuit. The SPI-compatible serial interface is controlled by the CS and SCLK signals. The input signal is sampled with the CS falling edge and SCLK is used for conversion and serial data output. The device supports a wide digital supply range (1.65V to 3.6V), enabling direct interface to a variety of host controllers. The ADS7041 complies with the JESD8-7A standard for a normal DVDD range (1.65V to 1.95V). The ADS7041 is available in 8-pin, miniature, leaded, and X2QFN packages and operates from -40C to 125C. Miniature form-factor and extremely low-power consumption make this device suitable for space-constrained, battery-powered applications.
