Applications
The LTC2185CUP#PBF is engineered for high-speed data acquisition in software-defined radio (SDR) receivers, wireless infrastructure base stations, and spectrum analyzers requiring dual-channel 16-bit resolution at 125 Msps sample rates. Its simultaneous I and Q channel digitization at 1.8 V supply makes it ideal for direct-conversion and superheterodyne receiver architectures in cellular infrastructure, satellite payload processors, and electronic warfare signal intelligence systems. The device also serves radar signal processors and medical ultrasound imaging systems where low-power, high-linearity ADC channels must sample wideband signals with minimal degradation to dynamic range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sample rate and resolution does the LTC2185CUP#PBF provide and how does that determine the Nyquist bandwidth for IF sampling?
The LTC2185CUP#PBF samples at 125 Msps with 16-bit resolution on each of its 2 channels. By the Nyquist theorem, it can digitize analog signals with bandwidths up to 62.5 MHz per channel without aliasing. This enables direct IF sampling of signals centered from DC to 62.5 MHz, eliminating a mixer stage in superheterodyne receivers for wideband communication and radar front-end designs.
What supply voltage does the LTC2185CUP#PBF require and how does low-power operation benefit multi-channel receiver boards?
The LTC2185CUP#PBF operates from a 1.8 V analog supply, significantly reducing power consumption compared to 3.3 V ADCs at the same sample rate. In a 4-channel receiver board using two LTC2185 devices, the 1.8 V supply reduces total ADC power dissipation by approximately 45%, lowering thermal management requirements and enabling smaller heat sinks or passive cooling in enclosed receiver chassis designs.
How does the 0.0114% linearity error of the LTC2185CUP#PBF affect spurious-free dynamic range in a wideband receiver?
The LTC2185CUP#PBF achieves a maximum integral nonlinearity (INL) error of 0.0114% of full-scale, corresponding to approximately 0.75 LSB at 16-bit resolution. This low INL contributes to a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) exceeding 90 dBFS at 100 MHz input frequency, ensuring that digitized signals in a wideband SDR receiver are not masked by harmonic distortion products from ADC nonlinearity.
Why would a radar designer choose the LTC2185CUP#PBF over a single-channel 16-bit ADC at the same sample rate?
A radar receiver requires simultaneous I and Q channel digitization for complex baseband demodulation and digital beamforming. The LTC2185CUP#PBF provides 2 matched 16-bit ADC channels with less than 0.5 dB channel-to-channel gain mismatch and sub-picosecond aperture delay skew, ensuring phase coherence between I and Q samples at 125 Msps. Using 2 separate single-channel ADCs would require careful board-level matching of 2 independent clock paths and supply domains to achieve equivalent I/Q phase alignment.
