ADC0820 8-Bit High Speed mP Compatible A/D Converter with Track/Hold Function
February 1995
ADC0820 8-Bit High Speed mP Compatible
A/D Converter with Track/Hold Function
General Description
By using a half-flash conversion technique, the 8-bit
ADC0820 CMOS A/D offers a 1.5 ms conversion time and
dissipates only 75 mW of power. The half-flash technique
consists of 32 comparators, a most significant 4-bit ADC
and a least significant 4-bit ADC.
The input to the ADC0820 is tracked and held by the input
sampling circuitry eliminating the need for an external sam-
ple-and-hold for signals moving at less than 100 mV/ms.
For ease of interface to microprocessors, the ADC0820 has
been designed to appear as a memory location or I/O port
without the need for external interfacing logic.
