Overview
The TLV2548IDWG4, produced by Texas Instruments, is a high-performance, 12-bit low-power CMOS analog-to-digital converter (ADC). This device operates from a single 2.7-V to 5.5-V power supply and is characterized for operation from −40°C to 85°C. It features a 3.86 µs conversion time and supports a 4-wire SPI interface, making it compatible with most popular host microprocessors. The TLV2548 includes an on-chip analog multiplexer, allowing selection of any of the eight analog inputs or three internal self-test voltages. The device also supports various power-saving modes and programmable conversion speeds, enhancing its versatility and efficiency.
