Product details
Overview
ADC34J24IRGZT from Texas Instruments is a quad-channel, 12-bit, 125-MSPS analog-to-digital converter with JESD204B subclass 0/1/2 serial interface, 69.6 dBFS SNR at 70 MHz input, 105 dB channel isolation, and single 1.8-V supply operation - deployed in radar beamforming and multi-carrier cellular base station receivers.
For engineers reviewing the ADC34J24IRGZT datasheet, ADC34J24IRGZT pinout, ADC34J24IRGZT application, or ADC34J24IRGZT equivalent, key selection criteria include JESD204B lane count per channel (1 lane up to 160 MSPS), internal dither capability for SFDR enhancement, SYSREF-supported multi-chip synchronization, and VQFN-48 thermal performance (RθJA = 25.7°C/W).
Technical Context
The ADC34J24IRGZT integrates four independent 12-bit ADC cores sharing a common 1.8-V analog and digital supply, each with differential analog inputs (INxP/INxM), dedicated overrange indicators (OVRA–OVRD), and JESD204B serializer output pairs (DAP/DAM through DDP/DDM). Its internal PLL multiplies the sampling clock by 20 to generate the 2.5-Gbps bit clock required for 12-bit serialization.
It supports flexible clocking via programmable divide-by-1/2/4 on CLKP/CLKM, accepts external SYSREF for deterministic latency alignment across multiple devices, and enables system-level timing coherence through SYNCP~/SYNCM~ synch inputs - all while maintaining 105 dB near-channel isolation up to 100 MHz input frequency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sampling Rate | 125 MSPS - fixed maximum rate for ADC34J24; determines Nyquist zone (0–62.5 MHz) and real-time bandwidth for wideband IF sampling. |
| Resolution | 12 bits - defines quantization step size (≈0.24 mV at 1.0 VPP full-scale) and theoretical SNR ceiling of 74 dB. |
| SNR @ 70 MHz | 69.6 dBFS - measured dynamic range with –1-dBFS input; indicates usable signal fidelity in high-frequency receiver front ends. |
| Channel Isolation | 105 dB - crosstalk suppression between adjacent channels at 10 MHz; critical for simultaneous multi-band signal capture without inter-channel leakage. |
| JESD204B Speed | Up to 3.2 Gbps - supports 1-lane-per-channel configuration at 125 MSPS, reducing PCB routing complexity versus parallel LVDS interfaces. |
| Power Dissipation | 715–1010 mW - total active power across AVDD/DVDD supplies; enables thermal design with VQFN-48 PowerPAD™ for industrial ambient (–40°C to +85°C). |
| Analog Input BW | 450 MHz - 3-dB small-signal bandwidth; allows direct sampling of L-band RF signals or high-IF architectures without external amplification. |
Pinout & Package
VQFN-48 (7 mm × 7 mm) package with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™) on underside for enhanced heat dissipation; RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INAP / INAM | Differential analog input, Channel A | Accepts ac-coupled ±1 VPP differential signal; requires matched 50-Ω termination for optimal linearity and bandwidth. |
| CLKP / CLKM | Differential sampling clock input | Supports LVDS, LPECL, or sine-wave clocks; internal divider enables system clock flexibility (divide-by-1/2/4). |
| DAP / DAM | JESD204B serial output, Channel A | LVDS-compatible differential pair; outputs 12-bit samples serialized at 2.5 Gbps (125 MSPS × 20) with embedded control characters. |
| SYSREFP / SYSREFM | Multi-device synchronization reference | Enables deterministic latency alignment across multiple ADC34J2x devices in time-coherent arrays (e.g., phased radar). |
| OVRA | Overrange flag, Channel A | Active-high open-drain indicator signaling input saturation; used for automatic gain control (AGC) feedback in receiver chains. |
| VCM | Common-mode voltage output | Provides 0.95 V reference for external driver biasing; ensures proper input common-mode compliance across all four channels. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal dither algorithm | Reduces harmonic distortion and improves SFDR by 3–5 dBc at mid-band frequencies without external components. |
| Quad-channel isolation | 105 dB near-channel crosstalk suppression enables independent signal processing paths in MIMO and beamforming systems. |
| JESD204B subclass 1 support | Guarantees deterministic latency and frame alignment across power cycles - essential for coherent multi-ADC timing in SDR platforms. |
| Flexible input clock buffer | Programmable divide-by-1/2/4 eliminates need for external clock dividers, simplifying clock tree design in dense RF modules. |
| Single 1.8-V supply | Eliminates dual-supply sequencing and reduces BOM count; AVDD and DVDD share same rail with separate decoupling requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel, 12-bit, JESD204B ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADC34J25IRGZT | Higher sampling rate (160 MSPS), higher power (812–1010 mW), identical pinout and JESD204B interface. | Required for >125 MSPS IF sampling (e.g., 200 MHz instantaneous bandwidth); not drop-in due to increased thermal load. | Select when Nyquist bandwidth >62.5 MHz is mandatory; verify thermal margin with RθJA = 25.7°C/W and board layout. |
| ADC34J44IRGZT | 14-bit resolution, same 125 MSPS rate, higher SNR (71.5 dBFS), higher power (920–1120 mW), pin-compatible. | Used where ENOB >11.3 bits is critical (e.g., high-fidelity test equipment); trades power and cost for precision. | Choose for applications demanding >11.3 ENOB at 125 MSPS; validate FPGA JESD204B lane compatibility with 14-bit mapping. |
Compared with ADC34J25IRGZT and ADC34J44IRGZT, ADC34J24IRGZT delivers optimal balance of 125 MSPS sampling, 69.6 dBFS SNR, and 715–1010 mW power in space-constrained radar and base station designs where 12-bit resolution suffices and thermal headroom is limited.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by ADC34J24IRGZT?
The ADC34J24IRGZT supports a fixed maximum sampling rate of 125 MSPS, as specified in the device comparison table and electrical characteristics section of the SBAS669A datasheet. This rate is not user-configurable beyond the factory setting and defines its Nyquist bandwidth as 0–62.5 MHz. Attempting to operate above this rate may result in undefined behavior or data corruption.
Does ADC34J24IRGZT require external voltage references?
No, ADC34J24IRGZT uses an internal reference and does not require an external voltage reference. The device integrates a precision bandgap reference and associated circuitry to maintain gain accuracy (±1%FS channel gain error) and offset stability (±20 mV) across temperature. External reference pins are absent from the VQFN-48 pinout.
Can ADC34J24IRGZT be synchronized with other ADC34J2x devices?
Yes, ADC34J24IRGZT supports deterministic multi-chip synchronization via its SYSREFP/SYSREFM and SYNCP~/SYNCM~ pins. When driven with a common SYSREF signal aligned to the device clock, it achieves sub-sample latency matching across multiple ADC34J2x units - a requirement for coherent beamforming and MIMO systems.
What is the purpose of the VCM pin on ADC34J24IRGZT?
ADC34J24IRGZT's VCM pin outputs a stable 0.95-V common-mode voltage used to bias external differential drivers feeding the INxP/INxM inputs. It ensures correct input common-mode compliance (VCM ± 0.025 V) across all four channels and eliminates the need for external resistive dividers, simplifying analog front-end design.
Is ADC34J24IRGZT compatible with 3.3-V digital logic levels?
Yes, ADC34J24IRGZT's digital control pins (RESET, SCLK, SDATA, PDN, SEN) support both 1.8-V and 3.3-V logic levels, with VIH = 1.2 V min and VIL = 0.4 V max. However, the JESD204B serial outputs (DAP/DAM, etc.) are LVDS-compatible and require 1.8-V terminated loads - not 3.3-V interfaces.
