SPT7610
6-BIT, 1 GSPS FLASH A/D CONVERTER
JANUAR Y 21, 2002
APPLICATIONS
• 1:2 demuxed ECL-compatible outputs
• 1.0 GSPS conversion rate
• Wide input bandwidth: 1.4 GHz
• Low input capacitance: 8 pF
• Metastable errors reduced to 1 LSB
• Monolithic construction
• Binary/Two’s complement output
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SPT7610 is a full parallel (flash) analog-to-digital converter capable of digitizing full-scale (0 to –1 V) inputs into
six-bit digital words at an update rate of 1 GSPS. The
ECL-compatible outputs are demultiplexed into two separate output banks, each with differential data-ready outputs to ease the task of data capture. The SPT7610’s wide
input bandwidth and low capacitance eliminate the need

• Radar, EW, ECM
• Direct RF down-conversion
• Microwave modems
• Industrial ultrasound
• Transient capture
• Test and measurement
for external track-and-hold amplifiers for most applications. A proprietary decoding scheme reduces metastable
errors to the 1 LSB level. The SPT7610 operates from a
single –5.2 V supply, with a nominal power dissipation of
2.75 W .
The SPT7610 is available in a 44L hermetic cerquad
surface-mount package in the industrial temperature
range (–40 °C to +85 °C).

TEST LEVEL CODES
All electrical characteristics are subject to the
following conditions:
All parameters having min/max specifications
are guaranteed. The Test Level column indicates the specific device testing actually performed during production and Quality Assurance inspection. Any blank section in the data
column indicates that the specification is not
tested at the specified condition.
Unless otherwise noted, all test are pulsed
tests; therefore, T
= TC = TA.
J
LEVEL TEST PROCEDURE
I 100% production tested at the specified temperature.
II 100% production tested at TA = +25 °C, and sample tested at the
specified temperatures.
III QA sample tested only at the specified temperatures.
IV Parameter is guaranteed (but not tested) by design and characteri-
zation data.
V Parameter is a typical value for infor mation purposes only.
VI 100% production tested at TA = +25 °C. Parameter is guaranteed
over specified temperature range.
