Operation over the industrial temperature range of
−40°C to +105°C is guaranteed. Their low power
consumption and small packages make this family of
ADCs an excellent choice for use in battery operated
equipment.
The ADC101C021 and ADC101C027 are part of a
family of pin-compatible ADCs that also provide 12
and 8 bit resolution. For 12-bit ADCs see the
ADC121C021 and ADC121C027. For 8-bit ADCs see
the ADC081C021 and ADC081C027.
