Product details
Overview
AD9271BSVZRL-40 from Analog Devices is an octal-channel, integrated ultrasound receive signal processor (RSP) combining low-noise preamplifier (LNA), variable-gain amplifier (VGA), 3rd-order antialiasing filter (AAF), 12-bit ADC, and 8×6 differential crosspoint switch in a single 100-lead TQFP. It delivers 1.2 nV/√Hz input-referred LNA noise, −6 dB to +24 dB VGA gain range, programmable AAF cutoff (8–18 MHz), 70 dB SNR at 5 MHz, and LVDS serial output - optimized for medical ultrasound beamforming and CW Doppler systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD9271BSVZRL-40 datasheet, AD9271BSVZRL-40 pinout, AD9271BSVZRL-40 application, or AD9271BSVZRL-40 equivalent, this device supports high-channel-count, low-power TGC (time-gain compensation) architectures with fast overload recovery (<10 ns), SPI-programmable gain control, and dual-mode active input impedance matching - critical for portable and high-resolution imaging platforms.
Technical Context
The AD9271BSVZRL-40 implements a fully differential analog signal chain per channel: single-ended LNA inputs convert to differential outputs with selectable 14/15.6/18 dB gain; VGA provides linear-in-dB gain control across 30 dB range; AAF is a programmable 3rd-order Butterworth filter; and the 12-bit ADC operates at 40 MSPS with LVDS DDR output (DCO±/FCO±). All eight channels share a common SPI interface for configuration.
Its integrated 8×6 crosspoint switch enables flexible CW Doppler routing by connecting any of eight LNA outputs to six differential CW transconductance amplifier inputs. In CW mode, the VGA, AAF, and ADC are powered down, reducing per-channel power to 90 mW while maintaining 10/12/16 mA/V transconductance and ±2 mA p-p output swing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrasound receive signal processing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD9272BSVZ-40 | 14-bit ADC resolution (vs. 12-bit); higher SNR (73.5 dB); same 40 MSPS rate and pin-compatible TQFP package | Better dynamic range for quantitative elastography or harmonic imaging; requires revised digital interface timing due to longer pipeline latency (9 cycles) | Select when >12-bit ENOB is required and system can accommodate increased data throughput and latency |
| AFE5809IPAPR | 12-bit, 65 MSPS; integrated JESD204B interface; lower power (125 mW/channel); different 144-pin HTQFP package | Designed for high-speed digital beamformers with FPGA/JESD204B backends; lacks integrated CW crosspoint switch | Select for scalable multi-board systems needing JESD204B serialization or higher sampling rates beyond 50 MSPS |
Compared with AD9271BSVZRL-40, AD9272BSVZ-40 offers higher resolution at identical speed and footprint but increases data volume and latency, while AFE5809IPAPR reduces per-channel power and adds JESD204B but removes CW Doppler switching capability and changes package and pinout - making neither a drop-in replacement.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD9271BSVZRL-40?
The AD9271BSVZRL-40 supports a maximum sampling rate of 40 MSPS, as indicated by the "-40" suffix in its part number. This is confirmed in the AC Specifications table (Page 4), where the AD9271-40 column lists minimum/typical/maximum clock rates of 10 MSPS to 40 MSPS. Operation above 40 MSPS is not guaranteed and may violate timing or SNR specifications.
Does the AD9271BSVZRL-40 include an integrated antialiasing filter, and can its cutoff frequency be adjusted?
Yes, the AD9271BSVZRL-40 integrates a 3rd-order Butterworth antialiasing filter (AAF) between the VGA and ADC stages. Its low-pass cutoff frequency is programmable from 8 MHz to 18 MHz via SPI register settings, as specified in the General Description (Page 1) and Table 1 (Page 4). This allows alignment with transducer bandwidth and system-level anti-aliasing requirements.
How many channels does the AD9271BSVZRL-40 support, and what signal chain functions are included per channel?
The AD9271BSVZRL-40 supports eight fully independent analog signal chains. Each channel integrates a low-noise preamplifier (LNA), variable-gain amplifier (VGA), antialiasing filter (AAF), and 12-bit ADC - all contained within the single 100-lead TQFP package. This is explicitly stated in the Features section (Page 1) and Functional Block Diagram (Figure 1).
What power supplies are required for the AD9271BSVZRL-40, and how are they used?
The AD9271BSVZRL-40 requires three distinct supplies: AVDD = 1.8 V (analog core), DRVDD = 1.8 V (LVDS output drivers), and CWVDD = 3.3 V (CW Doppler output bias). These are specified in the Power Supply table (Page 6) and General Description (Page 1). Separating AVDD and DRVDD reduces digital switching noise coupling into sensitive analog paths.
Is the AD9271BSVZRL-40 compatible with continuous wave (CW) Doppler applications, and how is that implemented?
Yes, the AD9271BSVZRL-40 supports CW Doppler via its integrated 8×6 differential crosspoint switch, which routes LNA outputs to dedicated transconductance amplifiers. In CW mode, the VGA, AAF, and ADC are powered down, reducing per-channel consumption to 90 mW. This architecture is detailed in the General Description (Page 1), Functional Block Diagram (Figure 1), and CW Doppler Mode table (Page 5).
