There seems to be no price cap on AD components! Solid stuff at a range of prices. It's sometimes tough to tell what makes the super-expensive ones different. Might be a little extra precision (etc) that's justified in niche cases.

- coretx 5y agoI'd love to have one in my radio
- GeorgeTirebiter 5y agoHow could one use an 18-bit D/A in a radio? (an 18-bit A/D is a different story).
- madengr 5y agoI suppose if you were doing some PA linearization techniques (e.g. digital predistortion), one could use that dynamic range.
- MisterTea 5y agoI'd say volume. These are highly specialized devices which require a lot of careful development. The volume might be a few thousand a year if even. So seeing super high speed/precision ADC's costing 1000+USD isn't so surprising.
