DATA CONVERTERS

Dual 11-Bit, 200-MSPS ADC with SNRBoost: The ADS58C28 is designed for ADC sockets in high-density 2-transmit, 4-receive (2x4) and 4x4 wireless base station systems. The SNRBoost feature enables performance found in 12- and 14-bit ADCs by shaping the noise floor of the device in such a way that the in-band SNR is improved once digital filtering is applied to the converter's output.
Resources: Data sheet, block diagram, evaluation module, SPI GUI software

  • Lowest power consumption available: 265 mW/ch at 200MSPS with 60-MHz SNRBoost enabled
  • Applications: Macro/micro base station receivers; RRUs and repeaters; TD-SCDMA, CDMA, WCDMA, CDMA2k; LTE-FDD, LTE-TDD; multi-carrier GSM (relaxed specs); shared RX+DPD feedback for TDD

ADS58C28: Price (1ku): $63.95 – $65.45

POWER MANAGEMENT

USB Charging Port Power Switch/Controller for Charging Host and Dedicated Charging Ports: The TPS2540/1 combines a current-limited USB port power switch with a USB 2.0 high-speed data line (D+/D-) switch and a USB charging port identification circuit for space and cost savings. The wide bandwidth (2.6GHz) data-line switch also features low capacitance and low on-resistance, allowing signals to pass with minimum edge and phase distortion.
Resources: Data sheet, block diagram, evaluation module

  • Fully compliant with BC1.2 (draft) standard
  • Adjustable current limit up to 2.8A
  • Applications: Notebook PCs, monitors, LCD TVs with USB ports, any USB host device

TPS2540: Price (1ku): $0.90 – $1.05

 

PMU for Embedded Camera Module: The TPS65708 features two 400-mA DC/DC converters, two 200-mA LDOs and a 7.5-mA LED driver in a tiny 2- x 2-mm WCSP package. The device is ideal for extremely space-limited and noise-sensitive applications.
Resources: Data sheet, block diagram, evaluation module

  • Automatic PFM/PWM operation with efficiency up to 95% maximizes battery life under all operating conditions
  • Applications: Table, netbook and notebook PCs, portable instruments, webcams

TPS65708: Price (1ku): $1.65 – $1.90

INTERFACE

USB 2.0 High-Speed (480Mbps) Audio Switch with Negative Signal Capability: The TS5USBA224 is a double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) multiplexer that includes a low-distortion audio switch and a USB 2.0 switch in the same package, allowing the system designer to use a common connector for audio and USB data. The audio switch allows signals to swing below ground, making this common connector configuration possible.
Resources: Data sheet

  • VBUS input detects data cable connection and automatically switches to USB path (if ASEL=L)
  • Integrated 100-Ω shunt resistors on the audio lines
  • Applications: Handset, digital still camera, DVD recorder and player

TS5USBA224: Price (1ku): $0.60

AMPLIFIERS

11-MHz Single-Supply, Low-Noise, Rail-to-Rail Output Precision JFET Amp: The OPA140 JFET input amp features good drift and low input bias current. The rail-to-rail output swing and input range that includes V– allows designers to take advantage of the low-noise characteristics of JFET amps while also interfacing to modern, single-supply, precision ADCs and DACs.
Resources: Data sheet, diagram

  • Achieves 11-MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 20V/µs slew rate while consuming only 1.8-mA (typ) quiescent current
  • Single 4.5-V to 36-V supply or dual ±2.25-V to ±18-V supplies
  • Applications: Battery-powered instruments, industrial controls, medical instrumentation, photodiode amps, data acquisition systems, automated test equipment

OPA140: Price (1ku): $1.55 – $1.90

 

Precision, 20-MHz, 0.9-pA Ib, RRIO, CMOS Op Amp: The OPA2320 op amp is optimized for very low noise and wide bandwidth, operating on a low quiescent current of only 1.45mA/ch (typ). It combines a wide bandwidth and high slew rate with low noise, low offset and a 0.9-pA maximum input bias current, making it ideal for a wide range of precision time and frequency domain applications.
Resources: Data sheet, diagram

  • Low offset voltage: 150µV (max)
  • High CMRR: 114-dB rail-to-rail I/O
  • Applications: High-impedance sensor signal conditioning, transimpedance amps, test and measurement equipment, programmable logic controller, motor control loops, input/output ADC/DAC buffers

OPA2320: Price (1ku): $1.25 – $1.45

 

2.2-nV/rtHz, 18-MHz, RRO, 36-V Precision Op Amp: The OPA209 is the only op amp to offer guaranteed settling time to 16-bit accuracy combined with the wide supply voltage range of 4.5V to 36V. Available in a SOT23-5, the device features rail-to-rail output, better CMRR and up to 80% wider bandwidth than competing devices.
Resources: Data sheet, diagram

  • Low noise: 2.2nV/√Hz (max); 1/f noise: 130nVpp (0.1Hz to 10Hz)
  • Low offset voltage: 150µV max gain
  • Applications: PLL loop filter, low-noise, low-power signal processing, high-performance ADC driver, high-performance DAC output amp, active filters, low-noise instrumentation amps

OPA209: Price (1ku): $0.95 – $1.15
