Texas Instruments (TI) has launched a wideband ADC that maximizes channel density, extends battery life, and slashes size and power consumption by half.

TI announced on the 7th that it is recently releasing a 24-bit wideband analog-to-digital converter (ADC) product.

The ADS127L11 is the latest addition to TI's precision wideband ADC portfolio, enabling ultra-precision data acquisition in a 50% smaller package to optimize power consumption, resolution and measurement bandwidth for a wide range of industrial systems.

The flexible ADS127L11 optimizes ADC performance with wideband or low-latency filter options for a wide range of industrial systems, providing high-performance data acquisition capabilities tailored to a variety of industrial systems.

Wideband mode allows designers to improve AC measurement resolution with 50% wider bandwidth, communication speeds up to 400 kSPS, and 30% higher signal-to-noise ratio compared to competing data converters while minimizing noise at high frequencies.

Low-latency mode achieves 25% shorter latency and 83.3% lower offset drift (50nV/°C) at up to 1,067kSPS, improving DC measurement resolution, data throughput, and response time in data acquisition and condition monitoring applications.

Until now, designers of small, battery-powered industrial equipment have been concerned about the size and You had to choose between high frequency measurement accuracy and low power consumption, but the ADS127L11 eliminates this trade-off.

Available in a 3mm x 3mm WQFN package, this single-channel device is 50% smaller than competing ADCs.

The new ADC not only reduces size, but also allows designers to add channels in a compact design, increasing system functionality.

The ADS127L11 consumes half the power of other ADCs. Its power scalable mode makes it easy to optimize power consumption for bandwidth requirements when designing portable electroencephalography (EEG) equipment or power quality analyzers.

Additionally, power consumption is low at 3.3 mW and the sampling rate is high at 50 kSPS, which can improve signal resolution and extend battery life.

The ADS127L11 is available on TI.com in a 20-pin, 3 mm x 3 mm WQFN package and a 20-pin, 6.5 mm x 4.4 mm TSSOP package. Pricing starts at US$5.75 in 1,000-unit quantities, and an evaluation module is available on TI.com for US$149. TI.com offers multiple payment and shipping options, including local currency.
