Current-to-bits converter fast enough for optical reflectometry

ADA4355 from Analog Devices is a current-input digital-output converter works with pulses down to 10ns for time-of-flight measurements using photo diodes. In a 12 x 6mm BGA package, the IC is actually a hybrid module combining transimpedance amplifier, analogue low-pass filter and 14bit 125Msample/s ADC converter. The output is through two serial LVDS (low-voltage differential signalling) lanes at ...
