GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9040A is a complete 10-bit monolithic sampling analogto-digital converter (ADC) with on-board track-and-hold (T/H)
and reference. The unit is designed for low cost, high performance applications and requires only an encode signal to achieve
40 MSPS sample rates with 10-bit resolution.
Digital inputs and outputs are CMOS compatible; the analog
input requires a signal of 2 V p-p amplitude. The two-step
architecture used in the AD9040A is optimized to provide the
best dynamic performance available while maintaining low
power requirements of only 940 mW typically; maximum dissipation is 1.1 W at 40 MSPS.
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), including harmonics, is 53 dB,
or 8.5 ENOB, when sampling an analog input of 10.3 MHz at
40 MSPS. Competitive devices perform at less than 7.5 ENOB
and require external references and larger input signals.
The AD9040A A/D converter is available in either a 28-lead
PDIP or a 28-lead SOIC package. The two models operate over
a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. Contact the
factory regarding availability of ceramic military temperature
range devices.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. CMOS compatible logic for direct interface to ASICs.
2. On-board track-and-hold provides excellent high frequency
performance on analog inputs, critical for communications
and medical imaging applications.
3. High input impedance and 2 V p-p input range reduce need
for external amplifiers.
4. Easy to use; no cumbersome external voltage references
required, allowing denser packing of ADCs for multichannel
applications.
5. Available in 28-lead PDIP and SOIC packages.
6. Evaluation board includes AD9040AJR, reconstruction DAC,
and latches. Space is available near the analog input and digital
outputs of the converter for additional circuits. Order as part
number AD9040A/PCB (schematic shown in data sheet).

NOTES
1
Gain temperature coefficient is for a converter using internal reference; temperature coefficient is for band gap reference only.
2
Output propagation delay (tPD) is measured from the 50% point of the falling edge of the encode command to the min/max voltage levels of the digital outputs with
10 pF maximum loads.
3
Minimum values apply to AD9040AJR only.
4
RMS signal to rms noise with analog input signal 1 dB below full scale at specified frequency.
5
Encode = 32 MSPS.
6
Third order intermodulation measured with analog input frequencies of 2.3 MHz and 2.4 MHz at 7 dB below full scale.
7
For rated performance at 40 MSPS, duty cycle of encode command should be 50% ±10%.
8
Measured as the ratio of the change in offset voltage for a 5% change in +VS or –VS.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the
AD9040A features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended
to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
