The AD9229 is a quad， 12-bit， 65 MSPS analog-to-digital converter （ADC） with an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit that is designed for low cost， low power， small size， and ease of use. The product operates at up to a 65 MSPS conversion rate and is optimized for outstanding dynamic performance in applications where a small package size is critical. The ADC requires a single 3 V power supply and TTL-/CMOScompatible sample rate clock for full performance operation. No external reference or driver components are required for many applications. The ADC automatically multiplies the sample rate clock for the appropriate LVDS serial data rate. A data clock （DCO） for capturing data on the output and a frame clock （FCO） trigger for signaling a new output byte are provided. Power-down is supported and typically consumes 3 mW when enabled. Fabricated with an advanced CMOS process， the AD9229 is available in a Pb-free， 48-lead LFCSP package. It is specified over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
