Data converters translate real world signals such as temperature, pressure, or voice into the digital realm and back again. Linear Technology's high performance analog to digital converters (ADCs) offer solutions for applications ranging from 24-bit precision measurements to 250Msps communications systems. Our digital to analog converters (DACs) offer a range of resolutions, output ranges and package densities.
Linear Technology offers a complete family of high performance analog to digital converters (ADCs), including 16-bit to 24-bit delta-sigma converters for precision measurements, up to 16-bit high-speed pipeline ADCs for communications and 8-bit to 16-bit low power successive approximation register (SAR) ADCs for everything in between.
Linear Technology offers a complete family of digital to analog converters (DACs), offering both voltage and current output, serial and parallel interfaces and a wide range of resolutions and package densities. Product lines include converters consisting of precision DACs with up to 16-bit resolution for precision industrial applications, low power DACs in tiny packages for control-loop applications, and high-speed DACs with output frequencies of up to 50Msps.
SPI and I2C serially controlled multiplexers for data conversion applications and industry-standard analog switches.
The signal chain modules use a System-in-Package (SiP) technology similar to multi-chip modules (MCM) to integrate components with different technologies along with passive components to make an integrated subsystem. The micromodule (µModule) receivers consist of high-performance, high-speed ADCs with fixed-gain, high-speed amplifiers and anti-alias filters. The integrated ADC + driver products include integrated bypass capacitance and simplify the high frequency layout required to preserve the AC performance. The board space savings are significant for instrumentation applications such as spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes (oscillographs) and communications test equipment or for communications applications such as high sensitivity receivers, software defined radio (SDR) or signal intelligence receivers.
