Abstract
A low power high bandwidth analog to digital converter system is disclosed. A first analog signal input receives an input signal. A first programmable gain amplifier receives the input signal. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to the output of the first programmable gain amplifier and samples the input signal for conversion to a digital signal. A controller is coupled to the ADC and the first programmable gain amplifier. The controller selects and enables either a reduced power mode or a power up mode for the first programmable gain amplifier and the ADC. The power up mode is selected and enabled when the input signal is to be sampled to operate the first programmable gain amplifier and the ADC to sample the input signal.
