Product details
Overview
AD9945KCPRL7 from Analog Devices is a complete 12-bit, 40 MSPS CCD signal processor IC featuring correlated double sampling (CDS), 10-bit programmable VGA (6–40 dB gain), optical black clamp, and single-supply 3 V operation. It processes interlaced/progressive scan CCD outputs in digital still cameras and camcorders with guaranteed no-missing-codes ADC performance and 1.2 LSBrms total output noise.
For engineers reviewing the AD9945KCPRL7 datasheet, AD9945KCPRL7 pinout, AD9945KCPRL7 application, or AD9945KCPRL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40 MHz sampling rate, 32-lead LFCSP package, 12-bit straight-binary output coding, and integrated CDS/VGA/clamp/ADC signal chain for CCD analog front-end consolidation.
Technical Context
The AD9945KCPRL7 implements a single-channel CCD signal chain with precise timing control: SHP and SHD clocks sample reference and data levels on rising edges with 3 ns internal delay, while CLPOB enables per-line optical black clamping with ≥20-pixel pulse width recommended for low-noise performance. Its pipelined 12-bit ADC uses a 2.0 V full-scale input range and straight-binary coding.
Gain and offset are digitally controlled via a 3-wire serial interface (SCK up to 10 MHz) that configures 1024-step VGA gain, 256-step clamp level, polarity settings, power-down modes, and output latching behavior. Internal registers default to defined states at power-up, with automatic 1 ms reset calibration.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CCD signal processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Instruments THS7353 | Triple-channel video filter driver (not ADC-integrated); requires external ADC and digital control | Targeted at composite/S-video analog video systems, not CCD-specific signal chains | Choose only if redesigning for multi-channel analog video with separate digitization path |
| ON Semiconductor KAE-02152 + CAT24C02 | Discrete CCD sensor + I²C EEPROM; lacks integrated CDS/VGA/clamp/ADC functionality | Requires full custom AFE design with precision op-amps, references, and FPGA-based timing control | Select only for highly specialized systems needing maximum flexibility and custom signal processing architecture |
Compared with THS7353 and KAE-02152+CAT24C02, the AD9945KCPRL7 provides a fully integrated, single-chip solution that eliminates external timing generation, analog filtering, and digitization stages-reducing bill-of-materials count by >12 components and shortening time-to-market for CCD-based imaging products.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD9945KCPRL7?
The AD9945KCPRL7 supports a maximum sampling rate of 40 MSPS, as confirmed in its General Specifications table and timing diagrams. This rate enables real-time digitization of high-resolution progressive-scan CCD outputs. The device maintains guaranteed no-missing-codes performance and 12-bit linearity at this full rate. Operation above 40 MHz is not characterized and may result in degraded CDS rejection or increased DNL. The AD9945KCPRL7's internal clocking architecture is optimized for stable 40 MSPS operation with 25 ns minimum DATACLK period.
Does the AD9945KCPRL7 include an integrated analog-to-digital converter?
Yes, the AD9945KCPRL7 integrates a 12-bit, 40 MSPS analog-to-digital converter with straight-binary output coding and guaranteed no-missing-codes performance across its operating temperature range. The ADC features a 2.0 V full-scale input range and achieves 0.1% peak nonlinearity when processing a 500 mV input signal with 12 dB gain applied. Its pipelined architecture delivers 1.2 LSBrms total output noise, making it suitable for high-fidelity CCD digitization. This integrated ADC eliminates the need for external digitization circuitry in the AD9945KCPRL7 signal chain.
How is gain controlled on the AD9945KCPRL7?
Gain on the AD9945KCPRL7 is controlled through its 10-bit digitally programmable variable gain amplifier (VGA), which offers a 6 dB to 40 dB range in 1024 discrete steps. The VGA gain is set via the "VGA Gain" register (address 0x03) using the 3-wire serial interface. The gain follows the equation: Gain(dB) = 0.035 × VGA_Code + 5.3 dB. Each step corresponds to approximately 0.035 dB resolution, enabling precise auto-exposure control. The AD9945KCPRL7's VGA operates within the analog signal path between the CDS and ADC stages, and its setting persists across power cycles only if externally managed by host firmware.
What package type is used for the AD9945KCPRL7?
The AD9945KCPRL7 uses a 32-lead lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP) with 5 mm × 5 mm body dimensions and exposed thermal pad (CP-32 designation). This RoHS-compliant, Pb-free package conforms to JEDEC standard MO-220-VHHD-2. The exposed pad must be soldered to the PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance and electrical stability. Pin 1 is marked with a dot indicator on the top surface, and the package supports reflow soldering per Analog Devices' recommended profile. The LFCSP footprint reduces board area by ~40% compared to equivalent QFP packages while maintaining robust thermal dissipation for the AD9945KCPRL7's 140 mW power dissipation.
Can the AD9945KCPRL7 operate from a single 3 V supply?
Yes, the AD9945KCPRL7 is designed for single 3 V supply operation, with specified operation from 2.7 V to 3.6 V across all power domains (AVDD, DVDD, DRVDD). It consumes 140 mW at 3.0 V and 40 MSPS, and includes separate analog (AVDD/AVSS), digital (DVDD/DVSS), and digital driver (DRVDD/DRVSS) supply pins to minimize noise coupling. The device's internal voltage references (REFT = 2.0 V, REFB = 1.0 V) are derived from the AVDD rail, and its 12-bit ADC uses a 2.0 V full-scale range compatible with the 3 V supply. This single-supply capability simplifies power design versus legacy ±5 V CCD processors.
