A/D Converters ≲1uA
5 US Patents Issued & Proof of Silicon (Test forthcoming)
Ai Linear’s family of ultra-low-power (under ~1µA) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are designed to seamlessly interface with analog signals in both current and voltage modes, depending on the application or sensor requirements. These ADCs are fabricated using cost-effective, conventional digital CMOS processes in TSMC’s 65nm and 180nm technologies, ensuring high performance while maintaining affordability.
Our family of current-mode ADCs are patented and initially fabricated in TSMC’s 180nm technology, operating with a 2V power supply and offering 8-bit resolution. These asynchronous ADCs are ideal for applications that require efficient current-mode signal interfacing, providing low-power, high-performance solutions.
Our family of voltage-mode ADCs, initially fabricated in TSMC’s 65nm technology with a 1V power supply, feature a differential input and include a built-in sample-and-hold (S/H) function. Available in both synchronous and asynchronous versions, these ADCs also provide 8-bit resolution, making them well-suited for voltage-based signal applications.
