AD9961BCPZ

The AD9961BCPZ from Analog Devices is a versatile MxFE® converter offering dual 10-bit/12-bit ADC channels at 100 MSPS and dual 10-bit/12-bit DAC channels up to 170 MSPS. This device is optimized for low power and cost-sensitive transmit and receive signal paths in communication systems.

Key electrical specifications include an ADC SNR of 67 dB at 30.1 MHz and a DAC ACLR of 74 dBc. The device supports flexible clocking options and configurable interpolation for the transmit path, as well as a bypassable 2x decimating low-pass filter for the receive path. It also integrates five auxiliary analog channels, with three inputs to a 12-bit ADC and two configurable as outputs via 10-bit DACs, plus two dedicated 12-bit DAC outputs.

With a low power consumption of less than 425 mW at maximum sample rates, and specific path consumptions of <100 mW for the transmit path at 170 MSPS and <350 mW for the receive path at 100 MSPS, the AD9961BCPZ is well-suited for portable and power-conscious applications. It operates on a single 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply.

The AD9961BCPZ is housed in a compact 72-lead LFCSP lead-free package, specifically a 72-VFQFN Exposed Pad, CSP, designed for surface mounting. Its high level of integration, small size, and low power dissipation make it an ideal choice for applications such as wireless infrastructure, picocell and femtocell basestations, medical instrumentation, ultrasound AFEs, portable instrumentation, and signal generators/analyzers.
