DESCRIPTION
The WM2148 is a 14-bit, 8 MSPS analogue to digital
converter with an on-chip voltage reference, high bandwidth
sample and hold amplifier and programmable gain. The
analogue input is differential, giving excellent common-
mode noise immunity and low distortion.
The WM2148 is designed for use in highly integrated, low-
power 3.3V systems. A high speed, microprocessor
compatible parallel interface allows control of the ADC input
gain, digital DC offset, internal / external reference and
output data format. Both binary and two’s complement
formats are supported. The device also features an out of
range indicator pin to show when the input signal exceeds
the converter’s full-scale range.
In Power Down mode, all analogue circuitry is internally
disconnected from the power supply, reducing total supply
current to 20
μ
A.
The WM2148 is available in a 1mm thin 48-pin TQFP
package in standard commercial and industrial temperature
ranges.
