Plural™ 14 Platform Analog-to-Digital Converters

The Silanna Plural 14-bit platform ADC is a high-speed, low-power data converter designed for precision measurement and signal-chain applications across industrial, medical, and communications markets. It integrates a 14-bit pipeline ADC core, on-chip reference, input buffer, and clock management circuitry to simplify design and reduce external component count.

The converter supports sampling rates from 5 MSPS to 250 MSPS, providing a scalable platform for system architects who need performance and flexibility without redesigning the front end. The architecture delivers excellent SNR and SFDR, while maintaining low latency and deterministic timing, ideal for feedback and control applications.

Designed with multi-source compatibility and drop-in replacement options in mind, the Plural 14-bit platform enables seamless migration from the legacy vendors to Silanna, and across resolution and speed grades. Its feature-rich DSP capabilities accelerate data processing, reduce external filtering requirements, and reduce overall system cost. With offerings in the smallest packages available in the industry, it delivers a breakthrough in performance density and integration flexibility for space-constrained, high-speed designs.

Typical applications include software-defined radios, GPS, LiDAR, imaging, industrial instrumentation, communication systems, and power line monitoring where accuracy, repeatability, and thermal stability are critical. Combined with the Silanna evaluation ecosystem, the Plural 14-bit platform provides a balanced blend of performance, cost efficiency, and long-term supply assurance, empowering designers to build high-reliability systems free from single-source constraints.
