N TSA1002 APPLICATION NOTE
DETAILED INFORMATION
The TSA1002 is a high speed analog to digital
converter based on a pipeline architecture and the
latest deep submicron CMOS process to achieve
the best performances in terms of linearity and
power consumption.
The pipeline structure consists of 9 internal
G couple for each stage. The corrected data are
I outputted through the digital buffers.
Input signal is sampled on the rising edge of the
S clock while digital outputs are delivered on the
falling edge of the Data Ready signal.
E The advantages of such a converter reside in the
combination of pipeline architecture and the most
D advanced technologies. The highest dynamic
conversion stages in which the analog signal is performances are achieved while consumption
fed and sequentially converted into digital data.
Each 8 first stages consists of an Analog to Digital
W converter, a Digital to Analog converter, a Sample
and Hold and a gain of 2 amplifier. A 1.5bit
E ) conversion resolution is achieved in each stage.
t(s The latest stage simply is a comparator. Each
N c resulting LSB-MSB couple is then time shifted to
u recover from the conversion delay. Digital data

remains at the lowest level.
Some functionalities have been added in order to
simplify as much as possible the application
board. These operational modes are described in
the following table.
The TSA1002 is pin to pin compatible with the
8bits/40Msps TSA0801, the 10bits/25Msps
TSA1001 and the 12bits/50Msps TSA1201. This
ensures a conformity within the product family and
above all, an easy upgrade of the application.
