The WM8146 is a 12-bit analogue front end/digitiser IC,
which processes and digitises the analogue output signals
from linear CCD sensors at pixel sample rates of up to
6MSPS.
The device includes three analogue signal processing
channels each of which contains Reset Level Clamping,
Correlated Double Sampling and Programmable Gain and
Offset adjust functions. The output from each of these
channels is time multiplexed into a single high-speed 12-bit
Analogue to Digital Converter. The digital output data is
available in 8+4-bit wide multiplexed format, with no missing
codes.
28-pin SOIC package
The WM8146 is controlled via
a configurable serial
interface, which is compatible with all of Wolfson’s imaging
devices.
APPLICATIONS
Powered from an analogue supply voltage of 5V and a
digital interface supply of either 5V or 3.3V, the WM8146
typically only consumes 175mW when operating from 5V
supplies.
