description
The THS1206 is a CMOS, low-power, 12-bit, 6 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The speed, resolution, bandwidth, and single-supply operation are suited for applications in radar, imaging, high-speed acquisition, and communications. A multistage pipelined architecture with output error correction logic provides for no missing codes over the full operating temperature range. Internal control registers are used to program the ADC into the desired mode. The THS1206 consists of four analog inputs, which are sampled simultaneously . These inputs can be selected individually and configured to single-ended or differential inputs. An integrated 16 word deep FIFO allows the storage of data in order to take the load off of the processor connected to the ADC. Internal reference voltages for the ADC (1.5 V and 3.5 V) are provided.
An external reference can also be chosen to suit the dc accuracy and temperature drift requirements of the application. Two different conversion modes can be selected. In single conversion mode, a single and simultaneous conversion of up to four inputs can be initiated by using the single conversion start signal (CONVST
). The conversion clock in single conversion mode is generated internally using a clock oscillator circuit. In continuous conversion mode, an external clock signal is applied to the CONV_CLK input of the THS1206. The internal clock oscillator is switched off in continuous conversion mode.
The THS1206C is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C, the THS1206I is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C, the THS1206Q is characterized to meet the rigorous requirements of the automotive environment from –40°C to 125°C, and the THS1206M is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C.

detailed description
reference voltage
The THS1206 has a built-in reference, which provides the reference voltages for the ADC. VREFP is set to 3.5 V and VREFM is set to 1.5 V . An external reference can also be used through two reference input pins, REFP and REFM, if the reference source is programmed as external. The voltage levels applied to these pins establish the upper and lower limits of the analog inputs to produce a full-scale and zero-scale reading respectively.
analog inputs
The THS1206 consists of 4 analog inputs, which are sampled simultaneously. These inputs can be selected individually and configured as single-ended or differential inputs. The desired analog input channel can be programmed.
converter
The THS1206 uses a 12-bit pipelined multistaged architecture with 4 1-bit stages followed by 4 2-bit stages, which achieves a high sample rate with low power consumption. The THS1206 distributes the conversion over several smaller ADC sub-blocks, refining the conversion with progressively higher accuracy as the device passes the results from stage to stage. This distributed conversion requires a small fraction of the number of comparators used in a traditional flash ADC. A sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) within each of the stages permits the first stage to operate on a new input sample while the second through the eighth stages operate on the seven preceding samples.
conversion modes
The conversion can be performed in two different conversion modes. In the single conversion mode, the conversion is initiated by an external signal (CONVST). An internal oscillator controls the conversion time. In the continuous conversion mode, an external clock signal is applied to the clock input (CONV_CLK). A new conversion is started with every falling edge of the applied clock signal.
sampling rate
The maximum possible conversion rate per channel is dependent on the selected analog input channels. Table 1 shows the maximum conversion rate in the continuous conversion mode for different combinations.

single conversion mode
In single conversion mode, a single conversion of the selected analog input channels is performed. The single conversion mode is selected by setting bit 1 of control register 0 to 1.
A single conversion is initiated by pulsing the CONVST input. On the falling edge of CONVST, the sample and hold stages of the selected analog inputs are placed into hold simultaneously, and the conversion sequence for the selected channels is started.
The conversion clock in single conversion mode is generated internally using a clock oscillator circuit. The signal DATA_AV (data available) becomes active when the trigger level is reached and indicates that the converted sample(s) is (are) written into the FIFO and can be read out. The trigger level in the single conversion mode can be selected according to Table 13.
Figure 1 shows the timing of the single conversion mode. In this mode, up to four analog input channels can be selected to be sampled simultaneously (see Table 2).

continuous conversion mode
The internal clock oscillator used in the single-conversion mode is switched off in continuous conversion mode. In continuous conversion mode, (bit 1 of control register 0 set to 0) the ADC operates with a free running external clock signal CONV_CLK. With every rising edge of the CONV_CLK signal a new converted value is written into the FIFO.
Figure 2 shows the timing of continuous conversion mode when one analog input channel is selected. The maximum throughput rate is 6 MSPS in this mode. The timing of the DA T A_A V signal is shown here in the case of a trigger level set to 1 or 4.
