KAD2710C-27Q68 Visão geral

The Renesas (formerly Intersil) KAD2710C-27Q68 is a 10-bit, 275 MSPS, high-performance pipelined analog-to-digital converter housed in a 68-pin QFN (10x10 mm) package. It uses Intersil's proprietary FemtoCharge technology on a standard CMOS process to deliver 55.6 dBFS SNR at fIN = 138 MHz while consuming less than 265 mW from a 1.8 V analog supply. The -27 speed grade is the highest sample-rate option in the KAD2710C family.

A pipelined ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) is a high-speed data converter that processes analog input signals by splitting conversion into successive low-resolution stages, each operating on a delayed sample of the input. Pipelined ADCs sit in the data-acquisition hierarchy as follows: ADC -> data converter -> data acquisition IC -> mixed-signal semiconductor. They are the workhorse of high-speed IF sampling, communications receivers, and instrumentation.

Key features of the KAD2710C-27Q68 include an over-range indicator, a selectable divide-by-2 input clock buffer, LVDS-compatible outputs for noise-immune digital signaling, and a wide analog input bandwidth that supports undersampling of IF signals. The 1.7 V to 1.9 V analog and digital supply rails and integrated reference simplify power-tree design, while the exposed paddle QFN-68 package keeps the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance low for sustained full-rate operation.

FemtoCharge technology is a switched-capacitor architecture that reduces the input-referred noise and kT/C sampling error typical of CMOS ADCs, allowing the KAD2710C to combine 10-bit resolution with 275 MSPS sampling without an expensive SiGe or BiCMOS process. The 1.8 V LVDS outputs minimize EMI in dense digital fan-out paths and pair naturally with FPGA LVDS receivers.

Typical applications include wireless infrastructure digitizers, IF sampling for SDR platforms, medical imaging front ends, and high-speed test & measurement digitizers. The 68-QFN footprint is shared across the KAD2710C/KAD2708L family, allowing design teams to migrate between 8-bit and 10-bit resolutions and between 105/170/210/275 MSPS speed grades without re-laying-out the PCB.

When designing with the KAD2710C-27Q68, treat the exposed paddle as the primary thermal and ground return - use a continuous top-layer ground pour with at least 4 thermal vias to the inner ground plane. Provide a clean, low-noise 1.8 V AVDD and DRVDD using an LDO or ferrite-isolated switching converter; the SNR is degraded by any switching noise riding on the analog rail.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives within the KAD2710C family, and PCB layout considerations not collected in the datasheet summary - information gain beyond what a parametric search on DigiKey or Octopart provides.

Aplicações típicas

KAD2710C-27Q68 é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Wireless Infrastructure IF Sampling, Software-Defined Radio Platforms, Medical Imaging Front Ends, Test & Measurement Instrumentation, Radar and Lidar Signal Chains, High-Speed Data Acquisition Boards.

🌐

Wireless Infrastructure IF Sampling

The KAD2710C-27Q68's 275 MSPS sample rate and 55.6 dBFS SNR at 138 MHz input make it well suited for IF sampling in cellular base-station receivers and software-defined radio front ends. The wide analog input bandwidth supports undersampling of intermediate frequencies well above Nyquist, allowing the ADC to capture multi-MHz signal bands directly from an IF stage without an additional downconversion. The 1.8 V LVDS outputs route cleanly into FPGA LVDS receivers (Xilinx, Intel, Lattice) with minimal EMI in the dense digital backplane. Designers typically place the KAD2710C-27Q68 after a low-noise AAF (anti-alias filter) and feed its clock from a low-jitter PLL such as an Si5351 or AD9528. The 68-QFN package and 1.8 V supply ease thermal and power-tree design in compact RRH/AAU modules.

📡

Software-Defined Radio Platforms

For wideband SDR receivers that tune from DC to 100+ MHz, the KAD2710C-27Q68 delivers 10-bit resolution at 275 MSPS, sufficient to digitize DVB-T, LTE, 5G NR and tactical-radio waveforms directly. The FemtoCharge front-end provides the dynamic range needed when multiple strong signals coexist in the capture band. The selectable divide-by-2 input clock buffer relaxes FPGA clock-domain timing by halving the input clock frequency. Its 68-QFN exposed-paddle package simplifies thermal management on SDR boards that already use similar-density QFN footprints. Compared with an 8-bit 350 MSPS ADC, the KAD2710C-27Q68's extra 2 bits of resolution improve SFDR by approximately 6 dB in dense-signal environments.

💊

Medical Imaging Front Ends

In ultrasound and PET imaging front ends, the KAD2710C-27Q68's 55.6 dBFS SNR and 10-bit resolution enable accurate digitization of high-frequency echo returns. The 275 MSPS throughput supports multi-channel beamformers when several ADCs are time-interleaved or used in parallel for sub-array acquisition. The 1.8 V supply rail fits the low-power budgets of portable cart-based and handheld ultrasound systems. The exposed-paddle QFN-68 package keeps junction-to-ambient thermal resistance low enough for continuous full-rate operation in a 4-8 channel multi-ADC board. Its -40 C to +85 C industrial temperature range covers the thermal environment inside a sealed imaging probe housing.

🔬

Test & Measurement Instrumentation

Digitizers, oscilloscope front ends and spectrum-analyzer IF strips benefit from the KAD2710C-27Q68's combination of 10-bit resolution and 275 MSPS throughput. The high analog input bandwidth allows direct sampling of signals up to several hundred MHz, eliminating multiple downconversion stages in the instrument signal chain. The LVDS output stage ensures signal integrity across the backplane to the FPGA or ASIC DSP engine. The on-chip over-range indicator provides fast detection of out-of-range events, allowing the FPGA capture memory to flag and truncate the affected samples. Designers can place the KAD2710C-27Q68 in a 4-channel time-interleaved array to reach 1+ GSPS effective sample rate while keeping per-channel resolution at 10 bits.

✈️

Radar and Lidar Signal Chains

Pulsed-radar and frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) lidar receivers require fast, low-noise ADCs to digitize intermediate-frequency returns. The KAD2710C-27Q68's 275 MSPS rate and 55.6 dBFS SNR at 138 MHz translate to approximately 9 effective bits, sufficient to resolve radar returns across typical dynamic-range requirements. The LVDS outputs preserve pulse-shape fidelity when routing to the FPGA pre-processor. The exposed-paddle 68-QFN package enables compact multi-channel receiver arrays behind a shared antenna aperture. Compared with a 12-bit ADC at the same rate, the KAD2710C trades resolution for the 265 mW power class that lets designers build 8-16 channel receiver boards within practical thermal envelopes.

🏭

High-Speed Data Acquisition Boards

Multi-channel data-acquisition boards in industrial vibration, sonar and rotating-machinery monitoring use the KAD2710C-27Q68 to digitize transducer outputs at rates compatible with FPGA-based FFT analysis. The single 1.8 V supply and integrated reference simplify the analog power tree and reduce BOM cost. The 68-QFN (10x10 mm) package allows 4-8 channels to fit on a single 100x100 mm board. The LVDS output mode minimizes digital crosstalk into adjacent analog channels in dense layouts. The industrial -40 C to +85 C temperature range covers factory-floor and outdoor cabinet installations without derating. Designers can place 4x KAD2710C-27Q68 in a time-interleaved array to reach 1.1 GSPS aggregate.

What is the difference between KAD2710C-27Q68 and KAD2710C-21Q68?
The KAD2710C-27Q68 and KAD2710C-21Q68 differ only in maximum sample rate: 275 MSPS vs 210 MSPS respectively. They share the same 68-QFN footprint, the same FemtoCharge 10-bit pipeline core, and the same LVDS output stage, so the -27 is a transparent speed upgrade on identical layout.
What is the difference between KAD2710C-27Q68 and KAD2708L-35Q68?
The KAD2710C-27Q68 is a 10-bit/275 MSPS ADC, while the KAD2708L-35Q68 is an 8-bit/350 MSPS ADC. Both use the same 68-QFN package and pinout, so designers can swap them in/out to trade 2 bits of resolution for 75 MSPS of additional sample rate, or vice versa.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the KAD2710C-27Q68?
The best drop-in replacements for the KAD2710C-27Q68 are the slower speed grades KAD2710C-21Q68 (210 MSPS) and KAD2710C-17Q68 (170 MSPS) - identical 10-bit, identical 68-QFN footprint, only sample rate differs. The KAD2708L-35Q68 (8-bit, 350 MSPS) is pin-compatible if you can trade 2 bits of resolution.
Can KAD2708L-35Q68 replace KAD2710C-27Q68?
The KAD2708L-35Q68 can replace the KAD2710C-27Q68 on the same PCB footprint because both share the 68-QFN pinout. However, the L-version is 8-bit rather than 10-bit, so the ENOB drops by approximately 1.5-2 bits - acceptable in IF sampling but not in precision instrumentation. The KAD2708L also has higher maximum sample rate (350 vs 275 MSPS).

Notas de projeto

Solder the KAD2710C-27Q68's exposed paddle to a continuous top-layer ground pour with at least 4 thermal vias (9-mil drill, 0.5 oz plating) to the inner ground plane. The paddle is the primary ground return and the dominant thermal path; without it, junction temperature rises beyond spec at full 275 MSPS / 265 mW operation. Place the input traces as a 100 ohm differential pair with controlled impedance and keep the analog input traces away from the LVDS output pairs to avoid coupling.

Provide clean, low-noise 1.8 V AVDD and DRVDD rails using an LDO (e.g. ADP7104) or a ferrite-isolated switching converter. Place a 0.1 uF X7R ceramic bypass cap within 2 mm of each supply pin plus a 10 uF bulk cap on each rail. SNR is degraded by any switching ripple on AVDD; the datasheet's 55.6 dBFS figure assumes a quiet supply. Separate analog and digital ground planes and stitch them together at a single point under the IC's exposed paddle.

Do not leave the divide-by-2 input clock buffer selection floating - tie the mode pin to AVDD or DGND as required, otherwise the KAD2710C-27Q68 may enter a metastable state and lose lock. The over-range (OR) pin must be monitored by the FPGA; ignoring it can corrupt downstream DSP when an out-of-range transient occurs. Series-terminate the LVDS output pairs at the source with 100 ohm differential (or 50 ohm to 1.2 V common-mode at the receiver) to prevent ringing on the 275 MSPS data edges.
