LTC18556CG#PBF – LINEAR TECH

The Linear Technology LTC18556CG#PBF is a high-performance, dual, 16-bit, 250ksps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with integrated reference buffers. Each ADC channel operates independently, allowing simultaneous sampling. It’s characterized by excellent linearity and low noise, making it suitable for precision data acquisition systems. The device typically operates from a single 5V analog supply and a 3.3V digital supply. The output voltage rating is 0-5V. Each channel is capable of sinking or sourcing up to 10mA of current. Housed in a 36-lead narrow SSOP (SMD) package, the LTC18556CG#PBF offers a compact footprint for space-constrained applications. Its operating temperature range spans from 0°C to 70°C. Common use cases include industrial process control, medical instrumentation, and high-resolution data loggers where accuracy and low power consumption are paramount. Its integrated reference buffers simplify design and minimize external component count, contributing to a more robust and reliable solution.
