Overview
The AD9601BCPZ-250 is a 10-bit monolithic sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) produced by Analog Devices Inc. This device is optimized for high performance, low power consumption, and ease of use, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The AD9601 operates at a conversion rate of up to 250 million samples per second (MSPS) and is fabricated on an advanced CMOS process. It includes all necessary functions such as a track-and-hold (T/H) circuit and an internal voltage reference, providing a complete signal conversion solution. The ADC supports a 1.8 V analog and digital supply operation and features CMOS-compatible digital outputs with selectable output data formats (offset binary, twos complement, Gray code).
