MAX1127 Quad, 12-Bit, 65Msps, 1.8V ADC with Serial LVDS Outputs Global Power-Down (PDALL) PDALL controls the power-down mode of all channels and the internal reference circuitry. Drive PDALL high to enable global power-down. In global power-down mode, the output impedance of all the LVDS/SLVS outputs is approximately 378Ω, if DT is low. The output impedance of the differential LVDS/SLVS outputs is 100Ω when DT is high.
Quad, 12-Bit, 65Msps, 1.8V ADC with Serial LVDS Outputs CLK tAD Gain Error Gain error is a figure of merit that indicates how well the slope of the actual transfer function matches the slope of the ideal transfer function. For the MAX1127, the gain error is the difference of the measured full-scale and zero-scale transition points minus the difference of the ideal full-scale and zero-scale transition points.
MAX1127 Quad, 12-Bit, 65Msps, 1.8V ADC with Serial LVDS Outputs Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) Small-Signal Bandwidth SFDR is the ratio expressed in decibels of the RMS amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal component) to the RMS value of the next-largest spurious component, excluding DC offset. SFDR is specified in decibels relative to the carrier (dBc). A small -20dBFS analog input signal is applied to an ADC so the signal’s slew rate does not limit the ADC’s performance.
