ADAR7251WBCSZ

ADAR7251 is a 16bit, 4-channel, simultaneous sampling analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) designed especially for applications such as automotive LSR-FMCW or FSK-FMCW radar systems. Each of the four channels contains a low noise amplifier (LNA), a programmable gain amplifier (PGA), an equalizer, a multibit Σ-Δ ADC and a decimation filter. The front-end circuitry is designed to allow direct connection to an MMIC output with few external passive components. The ADAR7251 eliminates the need for a high order antialiasing filter, driver op amps and external bipolar supplies. The ADAR7251 also offers precise channel-to-channel drift matching. The ADAR7251 features an on-chip phase-locked loop(PLL) that allows a range of clock frequencies for flexibility in the system. Typical application includes automotive LSR systems and data acquisition systems.
