Analog Devices Inc. ADAQ7980/ADAQ7988 μModule® Data Acquisition System

Analog Devices Inc. ADAQ7980/ADAQ7988 μModule® Data Acquisition Systems are designed as 1MSPS/500kSPS 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) μModule data acquisition systems that combine four common signal processing and conditioning blocks in a system in package (SiP) design to support a wide range of applications. The devices include a high accuracy 16-bit SAR ADC, a high bandwidth, high input impedance ADC driver, a stable reference buffer, and an efficient power management block. A configurable ADC driver feedback loop enables gain and/or common-mode adjustments. The highly integrated design ensures that the ADAQ7980/ADAQ7988 μModule Data Acquisition Systems include the most important passive components in achieving specified device performance. As a result, the devices eliminate many design challenges associated with traditional signal chains with successive approximation register (SAR) ADCs.

Analog Devices Inc. ADAQ7980/ADAQ7988’s user interface is compatible with 1.8V, 2.5V, 3V, or 5V logic. Using the SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE™-/DSP-compatible serial interface, designers can daisy-chain multiple devices on a single, 3-wire bus.

Integration and Collaboration at the Heart of a High-Performance Image Sensor Reference Design

In collaboration with Hamamatsu Photonics, Inc., Analog Devices has built a high-performance analog front-end (AFE) board to interface with the Hamamatsu G920x linear array NIR/SWIR InGaAs Image Sensor Family. Image sensors in the 920x family include an integrated Thermoelectric Cooler (TEC) to cool the optical detectors for extremely low noise operation, making them an excellent choice for high-performance NIR/SWIR spectroscopy applications such as gas and mineral identification.
