APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LTC1608
The dynamic performance is excellent for input frequen-
cies up to and beyond the Nyquist limit of 250kHz.
Effective Number of Bits
The effective number of bits (ENOBs) is a measurement of
the resolution of an ADC and is directly related to the
S/(N + D) by the equation:
where ENOB is the effective number of bits of resolution
and S/(N + D) is expressed in dB. At the maximum
sampling rate of 500kHz, the LTC1608 maintains above 14
bits up to the Nyquist input frequency of 250kHz (refer to
Figure 20).

ENOB = [S/(N + D) – 1.76]/6.02

Total Harmonic Distortion
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental
itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency
band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD is
expressed as:
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental fre-
quency and V2 through Vn are the amplitudes of the
second through nth harmonics. THD vs Input Frequency is
shown in Figure 21. The LTC1608 has good distortion
performance up to the Nyquist frequency and beyond.
Intermodulation Distortion
If the ADC input signal consists of more than one spectral
component, the ADC transfer function nonlinearity can
produce intermodulation distortion (IMD) in addition to
THD. IMD is the change in one sinusoidal input caused by
the presence of another sinusoidal input at a different
frequency.
If two pure sine waves of frequencies fa and fb are applied
to the ADC input, nonlinearities in the ADC transfer
function can create distortion products at the sum and
difference frequencies of mfa nfb, where m and n = 0,
1, 2, 3, etc. For example, the 2nd order IMD terms include
THD
