Product details
Overview
ADC32J24IRGZR from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, 12-bit, 125-MSPS analog-to-digital converter with JESD204B subclass 0/1/2 serial interface, 70.3 dBFS SNR at 70 MHz input, 227 mW/channel power consumption, and VQFN-48 (7 mm × 7 mm) package - designed for high-dynamic-range RF sampling in microwave receivers and SDRs.
For engineers reviewing the ADC32J24IRGZR datasheet, ADC32J24IRGZR pinout, ADC32J24IRGZR application, or ADC32J24IRGZR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, JESD204B lane timing, channel isolation (105 dB), dither-enabled SFDR (90 dBc at 70 MHz), and real-world implementation guidance for multichip synchronization and SYSREF alignment.
Technical Context
The ADC32J24IRGZR integrates two independent 12-bit ADC cores sharing a single 1.8-V analog supply (AVDD) and digital supply (DVDD), with internal PLL multiplying the input sampling clock by 20 to generate the 3.125-Gbps JESD204B bit clock. It supports subclass 1 synchronization via SYSREFP/M and SYNCP~/SYNCM~ inputs for deterministic latency across multiple devices.
Each channel features differential analog inputs (INAP/INAM, INBP/INBM) with 450-MHz small-signal bandwidth, programmable input common-mode voltage (VCM = 0.95 V), and overrange indicators (OVRA/OVRB). The JESD204B interface uses one lane per channel (DAP/DAM for A, DBP/DBM for B) at up to 3.2 Gbps, eliminating parallel bus routing complexity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - delivers 11.4 ENOB at 10 MHz input, enabling precise amplitude quantization in wideband communication systems. |
| Sampling Rate | 125 MSPS - supports Nyquist zone up to 62.5 MHz; enables direct RF sampling of L/S-band signals without analog downconversion. |
| SNR @ 70 MHz | 70.3 dBFS - ensures >70 dB signal fidelity for radar pulse detection and cellular base station channelization. |
| Channel Isolation | 105 dB - prevents crosstalk between simultaneous A/B channel acquisitions in diversity radio and beamforming applications. |
| JESD204B Speed | Up to 3.2 Gbps per lane - reduces PCB trace count vs. LVDS, supports deterministic latency with subclass 1 for time-aligned multi-ADC systems. |
| Power Consumption | 401 mW total (227 mW/channel) at 125 MSPS - enables thermal management in dense RF front-end modules without forced air cooling. |
| Analog Input Bandwidth | 450 MHz (3 dB) - allows digitization of IF signals up to C-band without external filtering or gain staging. |
Pinout & Package
VQFN-48 (7 mm × 7 mm) package with exposed thermal pad on backside; RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INAP / INAM | Differential analog input, Channel A | Accepts ac-coupled ±1 VPP differential signal; 6.5-kΩ input resistance and 5.2-pF capacitance define anti-alias filter design. |
| INBP / INBM | Differential analog input, Channel B | Independent of Channel A; 105-dB isolation enables true simultaneous sampling for I/Q or diversity paths. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal dither | Reduces harmonic distortion and improves SFDR by 2–3 dBc at mid-band frequencies (e.g., 90 dBc at 70 MHz), enhancing spectral purity in SDR transceivers. |
| Flexible clock divider | Configurable /1, /2, /4 division enables use of common system clocks (e.g., 125 MHz, 250 MHz, 500 MHz) without requiring dedicated high-frequency sources. |
| VCM output | Stable 0.95-V common-mode reference (±25 mV) simplifies driver stage design and ensures optimal ADC input biasing across temperature. |
| Ultralow power per channel | 227 mW at 125 MSPS - 30% lower than comparable 12-bit dual ADCs - extends battery life in portable test equipment and UAV-based radar. |
| Pin-to-pin compatibility | Shares footprint and pinout with 14-bit ADC32J44, allowing hardware reuse when resolution trade-offs are acceptable for cost-sensitive deployments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel, JESD204B ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADC32J25IRGZR | Higher max sampling rate (160 MSPS) and 292-mA analog supply current; SNR drops to 69.8 dBFS at 70 MHz. | Better suited for wider instantaneous bandwidth (>80 MHz) or higher IF sampling; consumes 13% more power than ADC32J24IRGZR. | Select ADC32J25IRGZR when system requires >125 MSPS sampling; otherwise ADC32J24IRGZR offers optimal power-SNR trade-off. |
| ADC32J44IRGZR | 14-bit resolution, same 125-MSPS max rate, 535-mW total power; pin-to-pin compatible but requires updated FPGA JESD204B lane configuration. | Provides 2 extra bits of resolution for dynamic range-critical applications like spectrum monitoring; not drop-in software-replaceable. | Choose ADC32J44IRGZR only if ENOB >12.5 bits is mandatory; ADC32J24IRGZR remains preferred for cost- and power-constrained designs. |
Compared with ADC32J25IRGZR and ADC32J44IRGZR, ADC32J24IRGZR delivers the best balance of 70.3-dBFS SNR, 125-MSPS capability, and 401-mW power in the family - making it the default selection for microwave receiver front ends where thermal headroom and spectral purity are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by ADC32J24IRGZR?
The ADC32J24IRGZR supports a maximum sampling rate of 125 MSPS, as confirmed in Section 7.7 of the SBAS668A datasheet. This rate is fixed for the ADC32J24 variant and differs from the 160 MSPS capability of the ADC32J25IRGZR. At 125 MSPS, the device achieves 70.3 dBFS SNR at 70 MHz input frequency with dither enabled, making it ideal for microwave receiver IF sampling where bandwidth and SNR must be balanced.
Does ADC32J24IRGZR support JESD204B subclass 1 synchronization?
Yes, ADC32J24IRGZR fully supports JESD204B subclass 1, including deterministic latency alignment using SYSREFP/M and SYNCP~/SYNCM~ inputs. The device implements subclass 1 compliant framing and lane alignment, enabling precise multichip synchronization in radar and beamforming systems. Subclass 1 operation requires proper SYSREF timing relative to the sampling clock, with setup/hold times of 1 ns and 100 ps respectively as specified in Section 7.13.
What is the analog input bandwidth of ADC32J24IRGZR?
The ADC32J24IRGZR has an analog input bandwidth of 450 MHz (3 dB point), as stated in Section 7.5 of the datasheet. This bandwidth applies to differential ac-coupled inputs with a 50-Ω source termination and supports digitization of signals well into the second and third Nyquist zones - enabling direct sampling of IF signals up to C-band without external filtering or gain blocks.
How does internal dither improve SFDR performance in ADC32J24IRGZR?
Internal dither in ADC32J24IRGZR randomizes quantization error, reducing harmonic distortion and improving spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) by up to 3 dBc. For example, SFDR increases from 87 dBc to 90 dBc at 70 MHz input when dither is enabled. This enhancement is critical in SDR and spectrum analysis applications where spur-free operation across wide instantaneous bandwidths is mandatory.
Is ADC32J24IRGZR pin-to-pin compatible with any higher-resolution variants?
Yes, ADC32J24IRGZR is pin-to-pin compatible with the 14-bit ADC32J44IRGZR, as explicitly noted in the "Features" section of the SBAS668A datasheet. Both share the same VQFN-48 (7 mm × 7 mm) package, identical pin functions, and compatible power/signal routing - allowing hardware reuse when upgrading resolution without board redesign.
