APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CONVERTER OPERATION
The LTC2258-14/LTC2257-14/LTC2256-14 are low power
14-bit 65Msps/40Msps/25Msps 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 consump-
tion. 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. See
the Serial Programming Mode section.
ANALOG INPUT
The analog input is a differential CMOS sample-and-hold
circuit (Figure 2). The inputs should be driven differentially
around a common mode voltage set by the V
pin, which is nominally V

INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
Input fi ltering
If possible, there should be an RC lowpass fi lter right at
the analog inputs. This lowpass fi lter 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 fi lter. The RC component
values should be chosen based on the application’s input
frequency.
Transformer Coupled Circuits
Figure 3 shows the analog input being driven by an RF
transformer with a center-tapped secondary. The center
tap is biased with V
