DESCRIPTION
n
The LTM®9001 is an integrated System in a Package (SiP)
that includes a high-speed 16-bit A/D converter, matching
network, anti-aliasing filter and a low noise, differential
amplifier with fixed gain. It is designed for digitizing wide
dynamic range signals with an intermediate frequency (IF)
range up to 300MHz. The amplifier allows either AC- or DCcoupled input drive. A lowpass or bandpass filter network
can be implemented with various bandwidths. Contact

The LTM9001 is perfect for IF receivers in demanding
communications applications, with AC performance that
includes 78dBFS noise floor and 87dB spurious free
dynamic range (SFDR) at 5MHz (LTM9001-GA).
The digital outputs are single-ended CMOS. A separate
output power supply allows the CMOS output swing to
range from 0.5V to 3.3V.
An optional clock duty cycle stabilizer allows high performance at full speed with a wide range of clock duty cycles.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground with GND and OGND
wired together (unless otherwise noted).
Note 3: Gain is measured from IN+/IN– through the ADC.
Note 4: VCC = VDD = 3.3V, fSAMPLE = maximum sample frequency, input
range = –1dBFS with PGA = 0 with differential drive, AC-coupled inputs,
unless otherwise noted.

Note 5: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from
a “best fit straight line” to the transfer curve. The deviation is measured
from the center of the quantization band.
Note 6: Offset error is the voltage applied between the IN+ and IN– pins
required to make the output code flicker between 0000 0000 0000 0000
and 1111 1111 1111 1111.
Note 7: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 8: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 9: Leakage current will experience transient at power up. Keep
resistance
