Linear Technology LTC1860L
The LTC1860L has a differential analog input with an external reference pin. The LTC1861L offers a softwareselectable 2-channel MUX and an external reference pin on the MSOP version. The 3-wire, serial I/O, MSOP or SO-8 package and extremely high sample rate-to-power ratio make these ADCs ideal choices for compact, low power, high speed systems.FEATURES

At 150ksps, the supply current is only 450µA. The supply current drops at lower speeds because the LTC1860L/LTC1861L automatically power down between conversions. These 12-bit switched capacitor successive approximation ADCs include sample-and-holds. These ADCs can be used in ratiometric applications or with external references.
