Simplified Design with a Flash ADC
This chapter is devoted to simplified-design approaches for a typical video-frequency (VF) or high-speed flash-type ADC. All of the general design information in Chapters 1 through 3 applies to the examples in this chapter. The circuits in this chapter can be used immediately the way they are or, with alterations in component values, as a basis for simplified design of similar data-converter applications. The chapter concludes with a high-speed interface circuit.
5.1 General Description of ADC
Figure 5-1 shows the functional block diagram for the ADC (a Raytheon Semiconductor TDC1147). The pin configuration is shown in Fig. 5-2. The package interconnections are shown in Fig. 5-3.
