Product Overview
The AD9273BBCZ-40 is an 8-channel integrated analog front end (AFE) from Analog Devices, optimized for medical ultrasound and multi-channel sonar. Each channel integrates LNA, VGA, anti-aliasing filter and 12-bit 40 MSPS ADC, plus an embedded 8×8 differential crosspoint switch for CW Doppler imaging. This single-chip signal chain drastically shrinks PCB size and power consumption for beamforming systems. Its SPI interface enables dynamic configuration of gain, filter bandwidth and power modes, while serial LVDS outputs cut trace congestion and EMI, delivering low-noise, high-precision conversion in a compact BGA-144 (10×10 mm) package.
Core Advantages
Complete 8-Channel Monolithic Signal Chain Integration
Combines 8 channels of LNAs, VGAs, anti-aliasing filters, high-speed 12-bit ADCs and CW Doppler crosspoint switch into a single device, reducing board space requirements by up to 80% compared to discrete multi-chip designs.
Ultra-Low Noise Front-End Performance
Features an optimized input stage achieving an ultra-low input-referred noise voltage of 1.2 nV/√Hz typical at maximum LNA gain of 21.3dB, preserving system sensitivity for faint, deeply reflected acoustic signals.
Dynamic Power Scaling and Flexibility
Consumes a typical 109 mW per channel at 40 MSPS full TGC signal path operation; power consumption drops to only 70 mW per channel under CW Doppler mode, with highly flexible standby and power-down modes to extend runtime limits in portable diagnostic units.
Simplified Layout via High-Speed Serial LVDS
Utilizes integrated serial Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) digital outputs compliant with ANSI-644 standard to stream converted data packets seamlessly, minimizing active signal lines and reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is your current stock inventory of the AD9273BBCZ-40 completely factory-original?
A: Yes, we guarantee that all AD9273BBCZ-40 AFE modules in our inventory are 100% brand-new, factory-original products from Analog Devices Inc., kept and handled under strict anti-static ESD shielding and dry-pack moisture-control guidelines.
Q2: What is the significance of the “-40” suffix inside this specific ADI part number matrix?
A: The “-40” suffix specifies that the integrated internal Analog-to-Digital converters are factory optimized for stable continuous operation at a maximum sampling clock rate of 40 MSPS (Mega Samples Per Second), the full ADC performance range of this model spans 10MSPS to 50MSPS.
Q3: How does the integrated serial LVDS digital layout interface benefit the global circuit layout?
A: Traditional parallel outputs for an 8-channel 12-bit device would require nearly 100 physical pins and traces, complicating the PCB layout. The serial LVDS architecture reduces the active digital lane count to just a few differential pairs, dramatically clearing routing congestion and suppressing digital EMI switching noise.
Q4: How can our engineering group request official evaluation kit documentation, reference programming registers, or custom pricing schedules?
A: Please complete our Quick Inquiry web form on this page with details about your processing parameters. Our application support desk will process your inquiry and dispatch the available technical documentation package within 24 hours.
