Product details
Overview
ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 from Integrated Device Technology is a differential, high-speed 8-bit analog-to-digital converter optimized for telecommunication transmission control and tape drive systems. It supports up to 250 MHz sampling, 560 MHz analog input bandwidth, and 1.8 V CMOS or LVDS clock inputs, with binary/2's complement outputs and only 2-clock-cycle latency.
For engineers reviewing the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 datasheet, ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 pinout, ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 application, or ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its programmable Complete Conversion Signal (CCS), differential analog input architecture, HTQFP48 thermal-enhanced package, industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C), and dual-mode clock interface compatibility.
Technical Context
The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 implements a track-and-hold + resistor ladder ADC core with fully differential analog inputs (IN/INN) and integrated voltage regulation for both full-scale reference and common-mode bias (CMADC output = 0.95 V). Its digital interface uses 1.8 V CMOS outputs with configurable coding (binary or 2's complement) controlled by OTC and CE_N pins.
Timing is governed by a selectable clock input (LVDS or 1.8 V CMOS on CLK+/CLK−), with programmable CCS delay (via DEL0/DEL1) and frequency (fclk or fclk/2 via CCSSEL). Static digital inputs (CLKSEL, CCSSEL, CE_N, OTC, DEL0, DEL1) are all 1.8 V CMOS compatible, and the device achieves ≤ ±0.82 LSB INL and −53 dB THD at 250 MHz sampling.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADC0808S125HW-C1 | Lower max sampling rate (125 MHz vs. 250 MHz); identical pinout, package, and feature set | Suitable for cost-sensitive 100 MHz IF sampling where 250 MHz headroom is unnecessary | Select ADC0808S125HW-C1 when system clocking constraints limit to ≤125 MHz and thermal budget is tighter |
| AD9288BSTZ-100 | 8-bit, dual-channel, 100 MSPS; different pinout (LQFP48), no CCS, LVDS-only clock, higher power (320 mW) | Targeted at lower-frequency dual-channel applications (e.g., video digitizers) rather than single-channel RF IF sampling | Choose AD9288BSTZ-100 only if dual-channel parallel capture is required and CCS timing control is not needed |
Compared with ADC0808S125HW-C1, the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 delivers double the sampling bandwidth while maintaining identical footprint and register compatibility; versus AD9288BSTZ-100, it offers superior single-channel timing control and lower power but lacks dual-channel capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog input frequency supported by the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5?
The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 supports a maximum analog input frequency of 560 MHz (−3 dB bandwidth), enabling direct sampling of wideband IF signals without external anti-alias filtering. This specification is measured with full-scale sine-wave input at 125 MHz sampling and is validated across the industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C). The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 maintains this bandwidth regardless of clock input mode (LVDS or 1.8 V CMOS).
How does the Complete Conversion Signal (CCS) function on the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5?
The CCS output on the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 is a programmable strobe synchronized to the conversion cycle, configurable for either fclk or fclk/2 frequency via CCSSEL and with three discrete delay options (0.3 ns, 0.8 ns, or 1.9 ns) selected by DEL0/DEL1. It is designed to align with the stable window of D0–D7 output data, eliminating setup/hold timing uncertainty in FPGA or ASIC interfaces. The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 datasheet specifies CCS timing relative to CLK+ edge in Figure 6.
Can the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 operate with an external reference voltage?
Yes, the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 supports external full-scale reference voltages from 1.15 V to 1.35 V applied to the FSIN pin, which overrides the internal 1.25 V reference. When using external reference, the common-mode output on CMADC adjusts accordingly (e.g., 0.86 V at 1.20 V FSIN), and peak-to-peak input range scales to 1.825–2.18 V. The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 requires FSIN to be referenced to AGND and draws only 12 µA input current.
What are the power supply requirements for the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5?
The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 requires three independent supplies: VCCA = 3.0–3.6 V (typ. 3.3 V) for analog circuitry, VCCD = 1.65–1.95 V (typ. 1.8 V) for digital core, and VCCO = 1.65–1.95 V (typ. 1.8 V) for output drivers. At 250 MHz sampling, typical currents are ICCA = 60 mA, ICCD = 12 mA, and ICCO = 11 mA, yielding ~240 mW total power dissipation. All grounds (AGND1/AGND2/DGND1/OGNDx) must be shorted per datasheet Table 12 conditions.
Is the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 pin-compatible with the ADC0808S125HW-C1?
Yes, the ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 is pin-compatible and package-compatible with the ADC0808S125HW-C1, both using the HTQFP48 (SOT545-2) package with identical pin configuration and electrical interface. The only functional difference is the maximum sampling rate (250 MHz vs. 125 MHz); all registers, control pins (CLKSEL, CCSSEL, DEL0/DEL1, OTC, CE_N), and output timing parameters scale accordingly. The ADC0808S250HW/C1:5 can directly replace ADC0808S125HW-C1 in existing designs where higher bandwidth is needed.
