DESCRIPTION:
Maxwell Technologies’ 9240LP is a 14-bit, analog-to-digital
converter that operates at a 10 MSPS rate. Manufactured with
a high speed CMOS process, this monolithic ADC contains an
on-chip, high performance, low noise, sample-and-hold amplifier and programmable voltage reference.
The 9240LP offers single supply operation and dissipates only
230mW with a 5 volt supply. This device provides no missing
codes and excellent temperature drift performance over the
full operating temperature range.
The 9240LP utilizes Maxwell’s LPT™ Latchup Protection Circuit.
Maxwell Technologies' patented R
AD-PAK® packaging technol-
ogy incorporates radiation shielding in the microcircuit package. It eliminates the need for box shielding while providing
the required radiation shielding for a lifetime in orbit or space
mission. In a GEO orbit, R
AD-PAK provides protection to 100
krad (Si) radiation dose tolerance. This product is available
with screening up to Class S.
