Product details
Overview
LTC2274IUJ#PBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 105 Msps high-speed analog-to-digital converter with JESD204 serial interface, 700 MHz full-power bandwidth, ±4.5 LSB INL, and 77.7 dBFS noise floor. It digitizes wide dynamic range RF/IF signals in cellular base stations and spectrum analyzers using a PGA front end and ultra-low 80 fs RMS aperture jitter.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2274IUJ#PBF datasheet, LTC2274IUJ#PBF pinout, LTC2274IUJ#PBF application, or LTC2274IUJ#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include JESD204B compliance, 1.5 VP-P/2.25 VP-P programmable input range, CML serial output timing, internal dither capability, and –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating.
Technical Context
The LTC2274IUJ#PBF implements a 16-bit pipelined ADC core with integrated sample-and-hold, 8B/10B serializer, and PLL-based 20× clock multiplier for JESD204-compliant serial output. Its architecture supports both differential and single-ended encode clock inputs with duty cycle stabilization.
It features a programmable gain amplifier (PGA = 0 or 1) selecting 2.25 VP-P or 1.5 VP-P input range, optional internal dither, and configurable synchronization via SYNC+/SYNC– pins compliant with JESD204 frame alignment requirements.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD9653BCPZ-125 | 16-bit, 125 Msps, JESD204A interface, 750 MHz BW, 78.2 dBFS SNR, requires external reference | Higher sample rate but lacks integrated PGA and internal dither; uses different serial protocol version | Select when higher throughput is required and system can accommodate external reference and JESD204A FPGA IP |
| LTC2273IUJ#PBF | 16-bit, 80 Msps, same pinout/package, identical JESD204 interface and feature set, lower power (1050 mW) | Direct drop-in replacement with reduced sample rate; suitable where 80 Msps meets bandwidth needs | Choose for cost-sensitive or thermally constrained designs where 80 Msps suffices and PCB layout reuse is prioritized |
Compared with AD9653BCPZ-125 and LTC2273IUJ#PBF, the LTC2274IUJ#PBF uniquely balances 105 Msps speed with integrated PGA, internal dither, and industrial temperature rating in a pin-compatible family-making it optimal for upgrade paths from LTC2273 or migration from legacy parallel-output ADCs requiring JESD204 simplification.

FAQ
What is the maximum input frequency supported by the LTC2274IUJ#PBF?
The LTC2274IUJ#PBF has a 700 MHz full-power bandwidth, meaning it maintains ≤3 dB gain flatness up to 700 MHz for a full-scale input. Verified performance data shows usable SFDR >82 dBc at 250 MHz input with 1.5 VP-P range and PGA = 1, confirming robust high-frequency operation well beyond Nyquist for undersampling applications.
Does the LTC2274IUJ#PBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC2274IUJ#PBF includes an internal 2.5 V bandgap reference. The SENSE pin selects reference mode: tying SENSE to VDD activates the internal reference, while applying 2.5 V or 1.25 V externally sets the same 2.25 VP-P full-scale range (with PGA = 0). No external reference is needed for standard operation.
How does the internal dither function improve performance in the LTC2274IUJ#PBF?
When enabled via the DITH pin, internal dither adds controlled noise to the ADC transfer function, breaking up harmonic correlation and reducing spurious content. As shown in Figures G07/G08, SFDR improves from 105 dBFS (dither off) to 115 dBFS (dither on) at –25 dBFS input, directly enhancing dynamic range in low-level signal detection scenarios.
What are the power supply requirements for the LTC2274IUJ#PBF?
The LTC2274IUJ#PBF requires two supplies: VDD = 3.3 V ±3.5% (3.135 V to 3.465 V) for analog circuitry, and OVDD = 1.2 V to 3.3 V for CML outputs. At 105 Msps, typical analog supply current is 450 mA (1485 mW total dissipation), necessitating proper decoupling with 0.1 µF ceramics on all VDD/OVDD pins and thermal pad grounding.
Is the LTC2274IUJ#PBF pin-compatible with other devices in the LTC227x family?
Yes, the LTC2274IUJ#PBF is pin-compatible with the LTC2273IUJ#PBF (80 Msps) and LTC2272IUJ#PBF (65 Msps) in the same 40-pin 6 mm × 6 mm QFN package. This allows scalable design reuse across sample rate tiers while maintaining identical footprint, power, and interface connections-reducing layout effort and qualification time.
