Product details
Overview
LTC2208IUP-14#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 14-bit, 130Msps analog-to-digital converter optimized for high-frequency, wide-dynamic-range signal digitization up to 700MHz full-power bandwidth. It features a programmable gain amplifier (PGA), 77.1dBFS noise floor, 98dB spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR), and ultralow 70fsRMS aperture jitter - enabling undersampling in cellular base station receivers and spectrum analyzers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF datasheet, LTC2208IUP-14#PBF pinout, LTC2208IUP-14#PBF application, or LTC2208IUP-14#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual LVDS/CMOS output flexibility, ±1.5LSB INL, –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, 64-pin QFN package, and support for dithering and output randomization to suppress digital coupling artifacts.
Technical Context
The LTC2208IUP-14#PBF employs a 14-bit pipelined ADC core with integrated sample-and-hold and PGA front end, supporting differential analog inputs up to 2.25VP-P (PGA = 0) or 1.5VP-P (PGA = 1). Its clock interface accepts differential (LVDS, PECL, TTL) or single-ended inputs, with an optional duty cycle stabilizer ensuring performance across 2.6–3.846ns high/low times.
Digital outputs are configurable as standard/low-power LVDS or single-ended CMOS (full-rate or demultiplexed), with separate OVDD supply (0.5V–3.6V) enabling voltage-level adaptation. Internal reference generation (2.5V bandgap) and SENSE pin-selectable external reference (1.25V/2.5V) provide system-level flexibility without external components.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD9246BCPZ-125 | 14-bit, 125Msps; no integrated PGA; 65dBFS SNR at 70MHz; requires external reference and clock buffer. | Better power efficiency (750mW), but lacks PGA and dither - less suitable for variable-amplitude RF inputs. | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth (<125Msps) systems where external signal conditioning is already present. |
| LTC2207IUP-14#PBF | Pin-compatible 105Msps variant; identical architecture, package, and feature set - differs only in maximum sample rate and AC specs. | Lower power (1.05W) and reduced SFDR (95dB) - appropriate for applications trading speed for thermal headroom. | Choose for designs requiring drop-in migration path or qualification continuity where 105Msps suffices. |
Compared with AD9246BCPZ-125 and LTC2207IUP-14#PBF, the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF uniquely combines 130Msps speed, on-chip PGA, dither, and randomization in a single 64-pin QFN - delivering higher system integration density and superior undersampling performance for RF-intensive applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum input frequency supported by the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF?
The LTC2208IUP-14#PBF supports a full-power analog input bandwidth of 700MHz, enabling direct RF sampling of signals up to S-band frequencies. This specification is validated under RS ≤ 25Ω source impedance and applies across the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range, making it suitable for broadband receiver front-ends without intermediate frequency conversion stages.
Does the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF require an external reference voltage?
No - the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF integrates a 2.5V bandgap reference and supports internal reference operation by tying the SENSE pin to VDD. An external 1.25V or 2.5V reference may be used for improved stability or system-level calibration, but is not required for functional operation of the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF.
How does the PGA function affect the input voltage range of the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF?
The PGA on the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF provides two selectable full-scale input ranges: 2.25VP-P (PGA = 0) and 1.5VP-P (PGA = 1). This allows system designers to match the ADC's dynamic range to varying signal amplitudes without external gain stages, preserving SNR and minimizing clipping risk in multi-standard RF receivers where signal levels fluctuate significantly.
What digital output configurations does the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF support?
The LTC2208IUP-14#PBF supports four digital output modes selected via the LVDS pin: Standard LVDS, Low Power LVDS, Full-Rate CMOS, and Demultiplexed CMOS. CMOS outputs operate from 0.5V to 3.6V OVDD, allowing direct interfacing with 1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V logic families without level shifters - a key advantage in FPGA- and ASIC-based signal processing platforms.
Is the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF pin-compatible with other devices in the same family?
Yes - the LTC2208IUP-14#PBF is pin-compatible with the 16-bit LTC2208 (130Msps) and the 105Msps LTC2207IUP-14#PBF, sharing identical 64-pin QFN packaging, pinout, and power/ground layout. This enables hardware reuse across performance tiers and simplifies design migration paths within the same PCB footprint.
