Product details
Overview
ADS5482IRGC25 from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit, 105-MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with LVDS-compatible DDR outputs, internal high-impedance analog buffer, and dual-supply operation (5 V AVDD5 / 3.3 V AVDD3). It delivers 78.6 dBFS SNR at 70 MHz input and 95 dBc SFDR at 70 MHz/105 MSPS, targeting high-fidelity signal acquisition in wireless infrastructure and test instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the ADS5482IRGC25 datasheet, ADS5482IRGC25 pinout, ADS5482IRGC25 application, or ADS5482IRGC25 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 105-MSPS sampling rate, 16-bit resolution, QFN-64 PowerPAD package, dither-enabled spurious suppression, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The ADS5482IRGC25 employs a complementary bipolar (BiCom3) process and integrates an on-chip analog input buffer to isolate the track-and-hold stage from source impedance effects. Its internal reference generator provides a stable 1.2-V reference and configurable 3.1-V common-mode output (VCM).
It uses differential LVDS DDR outputs with 8-bit even/odd interleaving per pair (e.g., D0_1_P/M), supports dither activation via DITHER pin, and offers two power-down modes-light sleep (600 µs wakeup, 680 mW) and deep sleep (6 ms wakeup, 70 mW)-controlled by PDWNF and PDWNS pins.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The ADS5482IRGC25 is housed in a QFN-64 PowerPAD™ package (9 mm × 9 mm footprint) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 65 = AGND) for enhanced heat dissipation. Pin functions are validated per TI SLAS565C Rev. October 2009.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INP / INM (11, 12) | Differential analog input | High-impedance buffered inputs accepting 3-VPP differential signal; self-biased to 3.1 V common mode |
| CLKP / CLKM (21, 22) | Differential clock input | Accepts 3-VPP sine wave; 50% duty cycle required; aperture jitter = 80 fs rms |
| DRY_P / DRY_M (53, 54) | Data-ready strobe (LVDS) | DDR-aligned LVDS clock-out synchronized to data edges; latency = 5 clock cycles |
| Dx_y_P / Dx_y_M (e.g., 43–44, 61–62) | DDR LVDS data outputs | Even/Odd bit pairs (e.g., D0_1 = bits 0 & 1); 100-Ω differential load; VOD = 247–454 mV |
| PDWNF / PDWNS (34, 35) | Power-down control | PDWNF = light sleep (fast wake); PDWNS = deep sleep (ultra-low 70 mW); both high = full shutdown |
| VCM (16) | Analog common-mode output | Provides 3.1-V reference for external ADC driver biasing; eliminates need for external resistor divider |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal analog input buffer | High-impedance (>1 kΩ) interface isolates sensitive T&H stage from source reactance and layout parasitics |
| Dither enable (DITHER pin) | Reduces harmonic distortion and improves SFDR by randomizing quantization noise floor |
| LVDS DDR outputs | Halves data rate per lane vs. SDR; reduces timing skew and EMI in high-speed digital interfaces |
| Two-tier power-down | Light sleep (680 mW, 600 µs wake) and deep sleep (70 mW, 6 ms wake) support dynamic power management |
| On-chip voltage reference | 1.2-V internal reference and 3.1-V VCM output simplify system-level analog design and reduce BOM count |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS5483IRGC25 | Higher max sampling rate (135 MSPS); slightly lower SNR (77.4 dBFS @ 70 MHz) and SFDR (91 dBc @ 70 MHz) | Better suited for wider instantaneous bandwidth capture (e.g., >65 MHz IF), but higher power (2.35 W) | Select when sampling rate >105 MSPS is mandatory and thermal/power budget allows |
| ADS5481IRGC25 | Lower max sampling rate (80 MSPS); higher SNR (80.1 dBFS @ 70 MHz) and SFDR (93 dBc @ 70 MHz) | Optimized for ultra-low-noise IF sampling where bandwidth ≤40 MHz suffices | Select when priority is maximum SNR/SFDR at lower speed and reduced power (2.15 W) |
Compared with ADS5483IRGC25 and ADS5481IRGC25, the ADS5482IRGC25 strikes a balance: it delivers 105 MSPS sampling with 78.6 dBFS SNR and 95 dBc SFDR at 2.2 W-making it optimal for mid-bandwidth, thermally constrained wireless and instrumentation designs requiring proven performance at 70–90 MHz.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the ADS5482IRGC25?
The ADS5482IRGC25 supports a maximum sampling rate of 105 MSPS, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SLAS565C datasheet. This rate is fully characterized over the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) with AVDD5 = 5 V, AVDD3 = 3.3 V, DVDD3 = 3.3 V, and 50% clock duty cycle. Operation above this rate is not guaranteed and may degrade SNR or SFDR performance.
Does the ADS5482IRGC25 require an external reference voltage?
No, the ADS5482IRGC25 includes an internal 1.2-V reference and a 3.1-V analog common-mode output (VCM) on Pin 16. External reference is optional: pulling both PDWNF and PDWNS high disables the internal reference, allowing use of an external source via the REF pin (Pin 4). The internal reference is sufficient for most applications and simplifies system design.
How does the dither function improve performance in the ADS5482IRGC25?
The dither function in the ADS5482IRGC25-enabled by asserting the DITHER pin (Pin 36) high-injects controlled noise to randomize quantization error, reducing harmonic distortion and improving SFDR by up to 6 dB at medium input amplitudes. As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 of SLAS565C, dither significantly lowers dominant spurs while maintaining SNR within 0.2 dB, making it valuable for multi-tone and wideband signal capture.
What are the power-down modes available on the ADS5482IRGC25?
The ADS5482IRGC25 offers two hardware-controlled power-down modes: light sleep (PDWNF = high, PDWNS = low) draws 680 mW and wakes in 600 µs; deep sleep (PDWNF = low, PDWNS = high) draws 70 mW and wakes in 6 ms. Both modes retain register state. Full shutdown occurs when both PDWNF and PDWNS are high. These modes are documented in Table 1 and Section 7.5 of SLAS565C.
Is the ADS5482IRGC25 pin-compatible with other devices in the ADS548x family?
Yes, the ADS5482IRGC25 is pin-compatible with ADS5481IRGC25 and ADS5483IRGC25 in the QFN-64 RGC package. All share identical pinout, power sequencing, and interface signaling-including LVDS DDR data format, DRY strobe, and control pin assignments (PDWNF, PDWNS, DITHER, VCM, REF). This enables drop-in replacement across the family for sampling rate optimization without PCB redesign.
