difference between LTC2672 and LTC2662

Thread Summary

The user inquired about the differences between the 16-bit versions of the LTC2662 and LTC2672. The LTC2672 offers a lower dropout voltage (0.6V at 200mA vs 1V at 200mA), a broader output supply voltage range (2.1V to VCC vs 2.85V to V+), and improved internal reference stability (2.4 ppm/°C for WLCSP, 10 ppm/°C for LFCSP vs 10 ppm/°C for LTC2662). The LTC2672 also has a lower noise spectral density (~3 nA/rtHz @ 1MHz vs ~5 nA/rtHz @ 1MHz for LTC2662), but may exhibit noise issues at low MHz frequencies when not operating near the maximum DAC span.

Hello,

At first glance, the 16bit versions of the LTC2662 and the LTC2672 appear to be identical.
What are the differences? And I want to known more that what performance dose LTC2672 improve than LTC2662.

Thank you very much.

  • I have done quite a bit of testing on both chips.

    The noise spectral density of the ltc2662 is ~5 nA/rtHz @ 1MHz, while the '72 variant is ~3 nA/rtHz

    The '72s datasheet says that it has a lower dropout and that it can be run from 2.1V instead of 2.85V, but both chips actually can drive a laser from 2.1V just fine.

    The '72 has a problem with noise in the low MHz frequencies when being run far from the max DAC span.
