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 GND with GND and OGND
shorted (unless otherwise noted).
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below GND or above VDD, they
will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents
of greater than 100mA below GND or above VDD without latchup.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below GND they will be
clamped by internal diodes. When these pin voltages are taken above VDD
they will not be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input
currents of greater than 100mA below GND without latchup.
Note 5: VDD = OVDD = 1.8V, fSAMPLE = 125MHz (LTC2145), 105MHz
(LTC2144), or 80MHz (LTC2143), LVDS outputs, differential ENC+/ENC– =
2VP-P sine wave, input range = 2VP-P with differential drive, unless
otherwise noted.

Note 6: 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 7: Offset error is the offset voltage measured from –0.5 LSB when
the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111 in
2’s complement output mode.
Note 8: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 9: VDD = 1.8V, fSAMPLE = 125MHz (LTC2145), 105MHz (LTC2144),
or 80MHz (LTC2143), CMOS outputs, ENC+ = single-ended 1.8V square
wave, ENC– = 0V, input range = 2VP-P with differential drive, 5pF load on
each digital output unless otherwise noted. The supply current and power
dissipation specifications are totals for the entire IC, not per channel.
Note 10: Recommended operating conditions.

PIN FUNCTIONS
PINS THAT ARE THE SAME FOR ALL DIGITAL
OUTPUT MODES
VDD (Pins 1, 16, 17, 64): Analog Power Supply, 1.7V to
1.9V. Bypass to ground with 0.1μF ceramic capacitors.
Adjacent pins can share a bypass capacitor.
VCM1 (Pin 2): Common Mode Bias Output, Nominally Equal
to VDD/2. VCM1 should be used to bias the common mode
of the analog inputs to channel 1. Bypass to ground with
a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
GND (Pins 3, 6, 14): ADC Power Ground.
AIN1+ (Pin 4): Channel 1 Positive Differential Analog
Input.
AIN1– (Pin 5): Channel 1 Negative Differential Analog
Input.
REFH (Pins 7, 9): ADC High Reference. See the Applications Information section for recommended bypassing
circuits for REFH and REFL.
REFL (Pins 8, 10): ADC Low Reference. See the Applications Information section for recommended bypassing
circuits for REFH and REFL.
PAR/SER (Pin 11): Programming Mode Selection Pin. Connect to ground to enable the serial programming mode. CS,
SCK, SDI, SDO become a serial interface that control the
A/D operating modes. Connect to VDD to enable the parallel
programming mode where CS, SCK, SDI, SDO become
parallel logic inputs that control a reduced set of the A/D
operating modes. PAR/SER should be connected directly
to ground or VDD and not be driven by a logic signal.
AIN2+ (Pin 12): Channel 2 Positive Differential Analog
Input.
AIN2– (Pin 13): Channel 2 Negative Differential Analog
Input.
VCM2 (Pin 15): Common Mode Bias Output, Nominally
Equal to VDD/2. VCM2 should be used to bias the common
mode of the analog inputs to channel 2. Bypass to ground
with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
ENC+ (Pin 18): Encode Input. Conversion starts on the
rising edge.
ENC– (Pin 19): Encode Complement Input. Conversion
starts on the falling edge. Tie to GND for single-ended
encode mode.
CS (Pin 20): In Serial Programming Mode, (PAR/SER =
0V), CS Is the Serial Interface Chip Select Input. When
CS is low, SCK is enabled for shifting data on SDI into
the mode control registers. In the parallel programming
mode (PAR/SER = VDD), CS controls the clock duty cycle
stabilizer (See Table 2). CS can be driven with 1.8V to
3.3V logic.
SCK (Pin 21): In Serial Programming Mode, (PAR/SER =
0V), SCK Is the Serial Interface Clock Input. In the parallel
programming mode (PAR/SER = VDD), SCK controls the
digital output mode (see Table 2). SCK can be driven with
1.8V to 3.3V logic.
SDI (Pin 22): In Serial Programming Mode, (PAR/SER =
0V), SDI Is the Serial Interface Data Input. Data on SDI is
clocked into the mode control registers on the rising edge
of SCK. In the parallel programming mode (PAR/SER =
VDD), SDI can be used together with SDO to power down
the part (see Table 2). SDI can be driven with 1.8V to
3.3V logic.
OGND (Pin 41): Output Driver Ground. Must be shorted
to the ground plane by a very low inductance path. Use
multiple vias close to the pin.
OVDD (Pin 42): Output Driver Supply. Bypass to ground
with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
SDO (Pin 61): In Serial Programming Mode, (PAR/SER
= 0V), SDO Is the Optional Serial Interface Data Output.
Data on SDO is read back from the mode control registers and can be latched on the falling edge of SCK. SDO
is an open-drain NMOS output that requires an external
2k pull-up resistor to 1.8V – 3.3V. If read back from the
mode control registers is not needed, the pull-up resistor
is not necessary and SDO can be left unconnected. In the
parallel programming mode (PAR/SER = VDD), SDO can
be used together with SDI to power down the part (see
Table 2). When used as an input, SDO can be driven with
1.8V to 3.3V logic through a 1k series resistor.
VREF (Pin 62): Reference Voltage Output. Bypass to
ground with a 2.2μF ceramic capacitor. The output voltage
is nominally 1.25V.

LTC2145-12/
LTC2144-12/LTC2143-12
PIN FUNCTIONS
SENSE (Pin 63): Reference Programming Pin. Connecting
SENSE to VDD selects the internal reference and a ±1V input
range. Connecting SENSE to ground selects the internal
reference and a ±0.5V input range. An external reference
between 0.625V and 1.3V applied to SENSE selects an
input range of ±0.8 • VSENSE.
Ground (Exposed Pad Pin 65): The exposed pad must be
soldered to the PCB ground.
DNC* (Pins 23, 24, 25, 26, 43, 44, 45, 46): These pins
are shorted to GND inside the package. For most applications they should be left unconnected. For pin compatibility with the 14-bit LTC2145-14 or the 16-bit LTC2185
they can be connected as digital outputs to make the bus
width 14 or 16 bits.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CONVERTER OPERATION
The LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/LTC2143-12 are low power,
two-channel, 12-bit, 125Msps/105Msps/80Msps A/D
converters that are powered by a single 1.8V supply. The
analog inputs should be driven differentially. The encode
input can be driven differentially, or single ended for lower
power consumption. The digital outputs can be CMOS,
double data rate CMOS (to halve the number of output
lines), or double data rate LVDS (to reduce digital noise
in the system.) Many additional features can be chosen
by programming the mode control registers through a
serial SPI port.
The two channels are simultaneously sampled by a shared
encode circuit (Figure 2).
Single-Ended Input
For applications less sensitive to harmonic distortion, the
AIN+ input can be driven single-ended with a 1VP-P signal
centered around VCM. The AIN– input should be connected
to VCM and the VCM bypass capacitor should be increased
to 2.2μF. With a single-ended input the harmonic distortion
and INL will degrade, but the noise and DNL will remain
unchanged.
INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
ANALOG INPUT
The analog inputs are differential CMOS sample-and-hold
circuits (Figure 2). The inputs should be driven differentially around a common mode voltage set by the VCM1 or
VCM2 output pins, which are nominally VDD/2. For the 2V
input range, the inputs should swing from VCM – 0.5V
to VCM + 0.5V. There should be 180° phase difference
between the inputs.

If possible, there should be an RC lowpass filter right at
the analog inputs. This lowpass filter isolates the drive
circuitry from the A/D sample-and-hold switching, and
also limits wideband noise from the drive circuitry. Figure 3
shows an example of an input RC filter. The RC component
values should be chosen based on the application’s input
frequency.

Figure 3 shows the analog input being driven by an RF
transformer with a center-tapped secondary. The center
tap is biased with VCM, setting the A/D input at its optimal
DC level. At higher input frequencies a transmission line
balun transformer (Figure 4 to Figure 6) has better balance,
resulting in lower A/D distortion.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Amplifier Circuits
Reference
Figure 7 shows the analog input being driven by a high
speed differential amplifier. The output of the amplifier is ACcoupled to the A/D so the amplifier’s output common mode
voltage can be optimally set to minimize distortion.
The LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/LTC2143-12 has an internal
1.25V voltage reference. For a 2V input range using the
internal reference, connect SENSE to VDD. For a 1V input
range using the internal reference, connect SENSE to
ground. For a 2V input range with an external reference,
apply a 1.25V reference voltage to SENSE (Figure 9).
At very high frequencies an RF gain block will often have
lower distortion than a differential amplifier. If the gain
block is single-ended, then a transformer circuit (Figure 4
to Figure 6) should convert the signal to differential before
driving the A/D.

The input range can be adjusted by applying a voltage to

The VREF, REFH and REFL pins should be bypassed as
shown in Figure 8. A low inductance 2.2μF interdigitated

Encode Input
The signal quality of the encode inputs strongly affects
the A/D noise performance. The encode inputs should
be treated as analog signals – do not route them next to
digital traces on the circuit board. There are two modes
of operation for the encode inputs: the differential encode
mode (Figure 10), and the single-ended encode mode
(Figure 11).
The differential encode mode is recommended for sinusoidal, PECL, or LVDS encode inputs (Figure 12 and
Figure 13). The encode inputs are internally biased to 1.2V

through 10kΩ equivalent resistance. The encode inputs
can be taken above VDD (up to 3.6V), and the common
mode range is from 1.1V to 1.6V. In the differential encode
mode, ENC– should stay at least 200mV above ground to
avoid falsely triggering the single ended encode mode.
For good jitter performance ENC+ and ENC– should have
fast rise and fall times.

so 1.8V to 3.3V CMOS logic levels can be used. The ENC+
threshold is 0.9V. For good jitter performance ENC+ should
have fast rise and fall times. If the encode signal is turned
off or drops below approximately 500kHz, the A/D enters

For good performance the encode signal should have a
50% (±5%) duty cycle. If the optional clock duty cycle
stabilizer circuit is enabled, the encode duty cycle can
vary from 30% to 70% and the duty cycle stabilizer will
maintain a constant 50% internal duty cycle. If the encode
signal changes frequency, the duty cycle stabilizer circuit
requires one hundred clock cycles to lock onto the input
clock. The duty cycle stabilizer is enabled by mode control
register A2 (serial programming mode), or by CS (parallel
programming mode).
For applications where the sample rate needs to be changed
quickly, the clock duty cycle stabilizer can be disabled. If
the duty cycle stabilizer is disabled, care should be taken to
make the sampling clock have a 50% (±5%) duty cycle. The
duty cycle stabilizer should not be used below 5Msps.

programming mode), or by SCK (parallel programming
mode). Note that double data rate CMOS cannot be selected
in the parallel programming mode.
Full Rate CMOS Mode
In full rate CMOS mode the data outputs (D1_0 to D1_11
and D2_0 to D2_11), overflow (OF2, OF1), and the data
output clocks (CLKOUT+, CLKOUT–) have CMOS output
levels. The outputs are powered by OVDD and OGND which
are isolated from the A/D core power and ground. OVDD
can range from 1.1V to 1.9V, allowing 1.2V through 1.8V
CMOS logic outputs.
For good performance the digital outputs should drive
minimal capacitive loads. If the load capacitance is larger
than 10pF a digital buffer should be used.
Double Data Rate CMOS Mode
In double data rate CMOS mode, two data bits are
multiplexed and output on each data pin. This reduces
the number of digital lines by thirteen, simplifying
board routing and reducing the number of input pins
needed to receive the data. The data outputs (D1_0_1,
D1_2_3, D1_4_5, D1_6_7, D1_8_9, D1_10_11, D2_0_1,
D2_2_3, D2_4_5, D2_6_7, D2_8_9, D2_10_11,
overflow (OF2_1), and the data output clocks (CLKOUT+,
CLKOUT–) have CMOS output levels. The outputs are
powered by OVDD and OGND which are isolated from the
A/D core power and ground. OVDD can range from 1.1V
to 1.9V, allowing 1.2V through 1.8V CMOS logic outputs.
Note that the overflow for both ADC channels is multiplexed
onto the OF2_1 pin.
For good performance the digital outputs should drive
minimal capacitive loads. If the load capacitance is larger
than 10pF a digital buffer should be used.
When using double data rate CMOS at sample rates above
100Msps the SNR may degrade slightly, about 0.1dB to
0.3dB depending on load capacitance and board layout.
Double Data Rate LVDS Mode
In double data rate LVDS mode, two data bits are
multiplexed and output on each differential output
pair. There are six LVDS output pairs per ADC channel
(D1_0_1+/D1_0_1– through D1_10_11+/D1_10_11– and
D2_0_1+/D2_0_1– through D2_10_11+/D2_10_11–) for
the digital output data. Overflow (OF2_1+/OF2_1–) and the
data output clock (CLKOUT+/CLKOUT–) each have an LVDS
output pair. Note that the overflow for both ADC channels
is multiplexed onto the OF2_1+/OF2_1– output pair.
By default the outputs are standard LVDS levels: 3.5mA
output current and a 1.25V output common mode voltage. An external 100Ω differential termination resistor
is required for each LVDS output pair. The termination
resistors should be located as close as possible to the
LVDS receiver.
The outputs are powered by OVDD and OGND which are
isolated from the A/D core power and ground. In LVDS
mode, OVDD must be 1.8V.
Programmable LVDS Output Current
In LVDS mode, the default output driver current is 3.5mA.
This current can be adjusted by serially programming mode
control register A3. Available current levels are 1.75mA,
2.1mA, 2.5mA, 3mA, 3.5mA, 4mA and 4.5mA.
Optional LVDS Driver Internal Termination
In most cases using just an external 100Ω termination
resistor will give excellent LVDS signal integrity. In addition, an optional internal 100Ω termination resistor can
be enabled by serially programming mode control register
A3. The internal termination helps absorb any reflections
caused by imperfect termination at the receiver. When the
internal termination is enabled, the output driver current
is doubled to maintain the same output voltage swing.
Overflow Bit
The overflow output bit outputs a logic high when the analog
input is either overranged or underranged. The overflow
bit has the same pipeline latency as the data bits. In full
rate CMOS mode each ADC channel has its own overflow
pin (OF1 for channel 1, OF2 for channel 2). In DDR CMOS
or DDR LVDS mode the overflow for both ADC channels
is multiplexed onto the OF2_1 output.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Phase Shifting the Output Clock
DATA FORMAT
In full rate CMOS mode the data output bits normally
change at the same time as the falling edge of CLKOUT+,
so the rising edge of CLKOUT+ can be used to latch the
output data. In double data rate CMOS and LVDS modes
the data output bits normally change at the same time as
the falling and rising edges of CLKOUT+. To allow adequate
set-up and hold time when latching the data, the CLKOUT+
signal may need to be phase shifted relative to the data
output bits. Most FPGAs have this feature; this is generally
the best place to adjust the timing.
Table 1 shows the relationship between the analog input
voltage, the digital data output bits and the overflow bit.
By default the output data format is offset binary. The 2’s
complement format can be selected by serially programming mode control register A4.
The LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/LTC2143-12 can also
phase shift the CLKOUT+/CLKOUT– signals by serially
programming mode control register A2. The output
clock can be shifted by 0°, 45°, 90°, or 135°. To use the
phase shifting feature the clock duty cycle stabilizer must
be turned on. Another control register bit can invert the
polarity of CLKOUT+ and CLKOUT–, independently of the
phase shift. The combination of these two features enables
phase shifts of 45° up to 315° (Figure 14).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Digital Output Randomizer
CLKOUT
Interference from the A/D digital outputs is sometimes
unavoidable. Digital interference may be from capacitive or
inductive coupling or coupling through the ground plane.
Even a tiny coupling factor can cause unwanted tones
in the ADC output spectrum. By randomizing the digital
output before it is transmitted off chip, these unwanted
tones can be randomized which reduces the unwanted
tone amplitude.
The digital output is randomized by applying an exclusiveOR logic operation between the LSB and all other data
output bits. To decode, the reverse operation is applied;
an exclusive-OR operation is applied between the LSB
and all other bits. The LSB, OF and CLKOUT outputs are
not affected. The output randomizer is enabled by serially
programming mode control register A4.
Alternate Bit Polarity
Another feature that reduces digital feedback on the circuit
board is the alternate bit polarity mode. When this mode
is enabled, all of the odd bits (D1, D3, D5, D7, D9, D11)
are inverted before the output buffers. The even bits (D0,
D2, D4, D6, D8, D10), OF and CLKOUT are not affected.
This can reduce digital currents in the circuit board ground
plane and reduce digital noise, particularly for very small
analog input signals.
When there is a very small signal at the input of the A/D
that is centered around mid-scale, the digital outputs toggle
between mostly 1’s and mostly 0’s. This simultaneous
switching of most of the bits will cause large currents in the
ground plane. By inverting every other bit, the alternate bit
polarity mode makes half of the bits transition high while
half of the bits transition low. This cancels current flow in
the ground plane, reducing the digital noise.
The digital output is decoded at the receiver by inverting
the odd bits (D1, D3, D5, D7, D9, D11). The alternate bit
polarity mode is independent of the digital output randomizer – either, both or neither function can be on at the same
time. The alternate bit polarity mode is enabled by serially
programming mode control register A4.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Digital Output Test Patterns
To allow in-circuit testing of the digital interface to the
A/D, there are several test modes that force the A/D data
outputs (OF, D11-D0) to known values:
All 1s: All outputs are 1
All 0s: All outputs are 0
Alternating: Outputs change from all 1s to all 0s on
alternating samples.
Checkerboard: Outputs change from 1010101010101
to 0101010101010 on alternating samples.
The digital output test patterns are enabled by serially
programming mode control register A4. When enabled,
the Test Patterns override all other formatting modes: 2’s
complement, randomizer, alternate bit polarity.
Output Disable
The digital outputs may be disabled by serially programming mode control register A3. All digital outputs including
OF and CLKOUT are disabled. The high-impedance disabled
state is intended for in-circuit testing or long periods of
inactivity – it is too slow to multiplex a data bus between
multiple converters at full speed. When the outputs are
disabled both channels should be put into either sleep or
nap mode.
Sleep and Nap Modes
The A/D may be placed in sleep or nap modes to conserve
power. In sleep mode the entire device is powered down,
resulting in 1mW power consumption. The amount of
time required to recover from sleep mode depends on the
size of the bypass capacitors on VREF, REFH, and REFL.
For the suggested values in Fig. 8, the A/D will stabilize
after 2ms.
In nap mode the A/D core is powered down while the internal
reference circuits stay active, allowing faster wakeup than
from sleep mode. Recovering from nap mode requires at
least 100 clock cycles. If the application demands very
accurate DC settling then an additional 50μs should be
allowed so the on-chip references can settle from the
slight temperature shift caused by the change in supply
current as the A/D leaves nap mode. Either channel 2 or
both channels can be placed in nap mode; it is not possible
to have channel 1 in nap mode and channel 2 operating
normally.
Sleep mode and nap mode are enabled by mode control
register A1 (serial programming mode), or by SDI and
SDO (parallel programming mode).
DEVICE PROGRAMMING MODES
The operating modes of the LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/
LTC2143-12 can be programmed by either a parallel
interface or a simple serial interface. The serial interface
has more flexibility and can program all available modes.
The parallel interface is more limited and can only program
some of the more commonly used modes.
Parallel Programming Mode
To use the parallel programming mode, PAR/SER should
be tied to VDD. The CS, SCK, SDI and SDO pins are binary
logic inputs that set certain operating modes. These pins
can be tied to VDD or ground, or driven by 1.8V, 2.5V, or
3.3V CMOS logic. When used as an input, SDO should
be driven through a 1k series resistor. Table 2 shows the
modes set by CS, SCK, SDI and SDO.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Serial Programming Mode
GROUNDING AND BYPASSING
To use the serial programming mode, PAR/SER should be
tied to ground. The CS, SCK, SDI and SDO pins become
a serial interface that program the A/D mode control
registers. Data is written to a register with a 16-bit serial
word. Data can also be read back from a register to verify
its contents.
The LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/LTC2143-12 requires a
printed circuit board with a clean unbroken ground plane.
A multilayer board with an internal ground plane in the
first layer beneath the ADC is recommended. Layout for
the printed circuit board should ensure that digital and
analog signal lines are separated as much as possible. In
particular, care should be taken not to run any digital track
alongside an analog signal track or underneath the ADC.
Serial data transfer starts when CS is taken low. The data
on the SDI pin is latched at the first 16 rising edges of
SCK. Any SCK rising edges after the first 16 are ignored.
The data transfer ends when CS is taken high again.
The first bit of the 16-bit input word is the R/W bit. The
next seven bits are the address of the register (A6:A0).
The final eight bits are the register data (D7:D0).
If the R/W bit is low, the serial data (D7:D0) will be written to the register set by the address bits (A6:A0). If the
R/W bit is high, data in the register set by the address bits
(A6:A0) will be read back on the SDO pin (see the timing
diagrams). During a read back command the register is
not updated and data on SDI is ignored.
The SDO pin is an open drain output that pulls to ground
with a 200Ω impedance. If register data is read back
through SDO, an external 2k pull-up resistor is required.
If serial data is only written and read back is not needed,
then SDO can be left floating and no pull-up resistor is
needed.
Table 3 shows a map of the mode control registers.
Software Reset
If serial programming is used, the mode control registers
should be programmed as soon as possible after the power
supplies turn on and are stable. The first serial command
must be a software reset which will reset all register data
bits to logic 0. To perform a software reset, bit D7 in the
reset register is written with a logic 1. After the reset SPI
write command is complete, bit D7 is automatically set
back to zero.
High quality ceramic bypass capacitors should be used at
the VDD, OVDD, VCM, VREF, REFH and REFL pins. Bypass
capacitors must be located as close to the pins as possible.
Size 0402 ceramic capacitors are recommended. The traces
connecting the pins and bypass capacitors must be kept
short and should be made as wide as possible.
Of particular importance is the capacitor between REFH
and REFL. This capacitor should be on the same side of
the circuit board as the A/D, and as close to the device
as possible.
The analog inputs, encode signals, and digital outputs
should not be routed next to each other. Ground fill and
grounded vias should be used as barriers to isolate these
signals from each other.
HEAT TRANSFER
Most of the heat generated by the LTC2145-12/LTC2144-12/
LTC2143-12 is transferred from the die through the bottomside exposed pad and package leads onto the printed circuit
board. For good electrical and thermal performance, the
exposed pad must be soldered to a large grounded pad
on the PC board. This pad should be connected to the
internal ground planes by an array of vias.
