GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SPT7936 is a compact, high-speed, low power 12-bit
monolithic analog-to-digital converter, implemented in a
0.5 µm CMOS process. The converter includes sample and
hold. The full scale range can be set between ±0.6 V and ±1.2
V using external references. It operates from a single 3.0-3.6
V supply-compatible with modern digital systems. Most converters in this performance range demand at least a +5 V
supply. Its low distortion and high dynamic range offers the

performance needed for demanding imaging, multimedia,
telecommunications and instrumentation applications.
The SPT7936 has a pipelined architecture - resulting in low
input capacitance. Digital error correction of the 11 most
significant bits ensures good linearity for input frequencies
approaching Nyquist.
The device is available in a 44L TQFP package over the
commercial temperature range of 0 to +70 °C.
