The AD9978 is a highly integrated, dual-channel CCD signal processor for high speed digital video camera applications. The device features two CMOS analog front-ends (AFEs), a 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a precision timing core, and LVDS outputs.
The AD9978 is a highly integrated, dual-channel CCD signal processor designed for high-speed digital video camera applications. Each channel operates at pixel rates up to 65 MHz and includes a complete analog front end with ADC conversion. The device features a Precision Timing core that allows adjustment of the correlated double sampler (CDS) and sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) clocks with 240 ps resolution at 65 MHz operation.
