General Description
The LM98640QML is a fully integrated, high performance 14-
Bit, 5 MSPS to 40 MSPS signal processing solution for image
processing applications. The LM98640QML is Radiation tol-
erant up to a total ionizing dose of 100krads allowing it to be
used in space imaging applications. Configuration Registers
are Single Event Functional Interrupt Free up to 120 MeV-
cm2/mg. The Serial LVDS Output format performs well during
ionizing doses, preventing data loss. The LM98640QML has
an adaptive power scaling feature to optimize power con-
sumption based on the operating frequency and amount of
gain required. High-speed signal throughput is achieved with
an innovative architecture utilizing Correlated Double Sam-
pling (CDS), typically employed with CCD arrays, or Sample
and Hold (S/H) inputs (for Contact Image Sensors and CMOS
image sensors). The sampling edges are programmable to a
resolution of 1/64th of a pixel period. Both the CDS and S/H
have a programmable gain of either 0dB or 6dB. The signal
paths utilize two ±8 bit offset correction DACs for coarse and
fine offset correction, and 8 bit Programmable Gain Amplifiers
(PGA) for each channel. The PGA and offset DAC are pro-
grammed independently allowing unique values of gain and
offset for each input. The signals are then routed to two on
chip 14-bit 40MHz high performance analog-to-digital con-
verters (ADC). The fully differential processing channel pro-
vides exceptional noise immunity, having a very low noise
floor of -79dB with a gain of 1x. The 14-bit ADCs have excel-
lent dynamic performance making the LM98640QML trans-
parent in the image reproduction chain.
