It's about how we know what we know. How Does Earth Work? covers the traditional breadth of introductory geology topics, but takes the non-traditional and highly effective approach of emphasizing conceptual learning of process rather than rote memorization of facts. Questions drive the development of the concepts: As with science itself, there are no answers without first asking questions. As a result, the concepts are introduced and developed in context ("If this is true, then why...?"), which facilitates deeper exploration of and linking between concepts. Illustrations bear much of the weight of explanation; they are as simple as possible, thoughtfully annotated, and paired wherever possible with photos of the concept manifest in nature.
Why Geology? Minerals: Building Blocks of the Planet; Rocks and Rock-Forming Processes; Formation of Magma and Igneous Rocks; Formation of Sediment and Sedimentary Rocks; Formation of Metamorphic Rocks; Earth Materials as Time Keepers; Journey to the Center of Earth; Making Earth; Motion Inside Earth; Deformation of Rocks; Global Tectonics — Plates and Plumes; Tectonics and Surface Relief; Soil Formation and Landscape Stability; Mass Movement: Landscapes in Motion; Streams: Flowing Water Shapes the Landscape; Water Flowing Underground; Glaciers: Sculptors of Continents, Recorders of Climate Change; Shorelines: Changing Landscapes Where Land Meets Sea; Wind: A Global Geologic Process.

DUI task force arrests 8 – all in Laguna Niguel
The Orange County Sheriff's Department reported eight arrests, all in Laguna Niguel, as they ramped up patrols Friday in four South County cities to catch drunk and impaired drivers.
Aliso Viejo, Laguna Hills, Laguna Woods and Laguna Niguel were targeted by the "Avoid the 13" DUI Task Force Friday night, with more deputies patrolling areas with historically high frequencies of DUI collisions or arrests until 3 a.m. Saturday.
In Laguna Niguel, deputies stopped 50 vehicles, said Lt. Matthew Barr, chief of police services. They arrested four suspected drunk drivers, one under the influence of drugs, and conducted seven sobriety tests. Deputies also made three other drug arrests during stops, he said.
Deputies cited four drivers who were unlicensed or had a suspended license.
There were 38 stops in the other three cities combined, Barr said, though no arrests were made. Several driver's license citations were given.
Barr said he wasn't sure why Laguna Niguel had all the arrests.

The OECD and the EU have worked hand in hand over many years to tackle some of the greatest challenges on the international tax agenda. Working together to ensure the coherence of global tax rules is absolutely critical – for governments and for business, coherency improves effectiveness, increases efficiency and reduces unnecessary compliance costs.
Mr. Gurría exchanged views with members of the European Parliament Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and met with Mr. Klaus Welle, Secretary-General of the European Parliament.
Last time I addressed the Committee in November 2013, we were still in crisis mode. Two weeks ago, the OECD released its Interim Economic Outlook and it seems that the Spring of 2015 has brought encouraging signs for the global economy. Lower oil prices and widespread monetary easing have raised the potential for the acceleration of growth that is so needed in many countries, especially in Europe.
The OECD Secretary-General Gurría welcomed the announcement and congratulated the Commission for the work done. "The European Commission's initiative is another major step to tackle corporate tax avoidance.
La faiblesse des cours du pétrole et l'assouplissement monétaire dopent la croissance dans les grandes économies du monde, mais le rythme à court terme de l'expansion reste modeste, sur fond de taux d'inflation et de taux d'intérêt anormalement bas qui révèlent l'existence de risques d'instabilité financière, selon la dernière Évaluation économique intermédiaire de l'OCDE.

This country note from Going for Growth 2015 for the European Union identifies and assesses progress made on key reforms to boost long-term growth, improve competitiveness and productivity and create jobs.
English, PDF, 2,158kb
The global economy continues to run at low speed and many countries, particularly in Europe, seem unable to overcome the legacies of the crisis. With high unemployment, high inequality and low trust still weighing heavily, it is imperative to swiftly implement reforms that boost demand and employment and raise potential growth.
This third edition of Health at a Glance: Europe presents a set of key indicators related to health status, determinants of health, health care resources and activities, quality of care, access to care, and health expenditure and financing in 35 European countries, including the 28 European Union member states, four candidate countries and three EFTA countries. The selection of indicators is based largely on the European Core Health Indicators (ECHI) shortlist, a set of indicators that has been developed to guide the reporting of health statistics in the European Union. This is complemented by additional indicators on quality of care, access to care and health expenditure, building on the OECD expertise in these areas.
Compared with the previous edition, this third edition includes a greater number of ECHI indicators, reflecting progress in the availability of comparable data in the areas of non-medical determinants of health and access to care. It also includes a new chapter dedicated to access to care, including selected indicators on financial access, geographic access and timely access.
La Commission européenne et l'OCDE ont mené conjointement pendant trois ans le projet de recherche « Gérer les migrations économiques pour mieux répondre aux besoins du marché du travail ». Ses conclusions sont présentées dans ce rapport.

Getting parking in a lot close to where you live is a small miracle.
As a freshman you can be very far from your classes and your room. However, once you become a sophomore and above you can park anywhere, but the good spots that are close to classes and dorms fill up really fast. I think that they might need more parking.
Just get your permit-$100 a semester- or they'll tow your car.
The parking is sometimes hard to find.
Most people live on campus so parking isn't all that much of a thing.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Parking at Cornell is certainly affordable, with permits costing just $45 for the entire academic year. There are more than enough spots to go around, though most will be more than a few feet outside your dorm's front door. Upperclassmen do get more convenient parking, but there is less of it, so many end up walking just as far as the freshmen. Granted, these distances are minimal compared to campuses that are larger than Cornell's—you can get from one end to the other in under 10 minutes. The biggest problem is that most of the parking is at the bottom of the Hilltop, while the dorms and academic buildings are located at the top. This makes the hike to and from your car particularly treacherous in the winter, when sidewalks are coated with a sheet of ice.
Parking enforcement is fairly consistent, and the most common infraction is parking too long in one of the 15-minute student spaces outside the residence halls. Though you can get away with leaving your car there for close to 30 minutes without incident—there aren't meters or timers that expire—parking in these spots for much longer will result in a $20 ticket. Students also have to be careful about parking in town. Parking on the main roads, including First Street in front of campus, is restricted after 2 a.m., and you can get ticketed by the city.

Investors considering a purchase of Scientific Games Corp shares, but cautious about paying the going market price of $8.86/share, might benefit from considering selling puts among the alternative strategies at their disposal. One interesting put contract in particular, is the January 2018 put at the $5 strike, which has a bid at the time of this writing of $1.10.
The most recent short interest data has been released for the 05/13/2016 settlement date, which shows a 2,299,106 share decrease in total short interest for Scientific Games Corp , to 11,214,402, a decrease of 17.01% since 04/29/2016. Total short interest is just one way to look at short data; another metric that we here at Dividend Channel find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares traded.

A corpse turns up in the Thames, and the only clue is a hospital wristband reading Dr. F. Klein. Frieda is taken to see the body and realizes with horror that it is Sandy, her ex-boyfriend. She's certain that the killer is Dean Reeve --- the man who has never stopped haunting her. But the police think he has been dead for years, and Frieda is their number one suspect. With few options, Frieda goes on the run to save herself and try to uncover the truth.
Frieda Klein learns from her former classmate, Maddie Capel, that Maddie's teenage daughter, Becky, claims she was raped in her own bed one night while her mother was downstairs. Becky's story awakens dark memories of an eerily similar incident in Frieda's own past that she's been avoiding for decades. When Becky is found hanging from a beam in her bedroom, Frieda seeks out her old high school friends to ask what they remember about the night that prompted Frieda to leave town for good. But confronting the ghosts of the past turns out to be more dangerous than she ever expected.
Ruth Lennox is found dead in a pool of her own blood. Detective Chief Inspector Karlsson can't piece together a motive and calls in psychotherapist Frieda Klein, hoping her talents will offer a new angle on the case. When it emerges that Ruth was hiding a scandalous secret, her family closes ranks. Then a patient's chance remark sends Frieda down a dangerous path that seems to lead to a serial killer who has long escaped detection.
A London social worker makes a routine home visit only to discover her client, Michelle Doyce, serving afternoon tea to a naked, decomposing corpse. With no clues as to the dead man's identity, Chief Inspector Karlsson again calls upon Frieda Klein for help. Frieda discovers that the body belongs to Robert Poole, con man extraordinaire. But she can't shake the feeling that the past isn't done with her yet.
The abduction of a five-year-old provokes a national outcry and a desperate police hunt. When his face is splashed over the newspapers, psychotherapist Frieda Klein can't ignore the coincidence: one of her patients has been having dreams in which he has a hunger for a child.

Fernando Montiel – The Party Crasher
By Thomas Gerbasi
Saturday is coronation night for Nonito Donaire.
Pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao can't fight forever, so the road has been paved and the stage set for a new star to ascend to the throne that will be vacated when the "Pac Man" leaves boxing. And with charisma, talent, and power, Donaire, a former flyweight and super flyweight champion, is ready to become the next idol of the boxing-rich nation of the Philippines.
The only one standing in the way of the 28-year old this weekend at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas is 31-year old Fernando Montiel.
It should bother the fighting pride of Los Mochis, Mexico that he's an underdog to Donaire, but if it does, he's not letting it show. It should annoy him that after 14+ years in the pro game that it's taken this long for him to get a real taste of life outside of being a hardcore fan favorite, but he's not worried about such matters. In fact, if not for the reality that he and Donaire will be punching each other in the body and face for 12 rounds or less tomorrow, you could call the two friends. Montiel does, and he will continue to do so after the fight is over.
"Outside of the ring we are friendly and are going to be friends," he said in a recent media teleconference. "We have a lot of respect for each other. But inside the ring everything changes. We are very competitive. We both want to win. We both want to do our best. No mercy. You go in to win the fight and forget about everything else. When the fight is over you become friends again."
It's the mantra of a Mexican warrior, a source of pride for all fighters from another of the world's boxing-rich nations. No mercy. War. Battle. They are all words or phrases that you must carry in your gloves and in your chest if you're going to survive in this sport. One that isn't thrown around too much though is adaptability. In this game, if you don't change what's not working, you'll be run over and run out.
In Montiel's case, he came out of the gate as one of the sport's most technically gifted fighters, a mini-Juan Manuel Marquez with the type of variety in his offensive attack that made him a joy to watch. With the exception of an eight months stretch from 2003 to 2004 when he lost his WBO title to Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson, he owned the 115-pound division for six years (2000 to 2006) and even went back after losing his belt a second time (to Jhonny Gonzalez) to reign for another year and a half.
Yet there was something missing when it came to Montiel crossing over to the mainstream and the next level of his career. There could have been any number of reasons for that. Maybe the death of Pedro Alcazar after their 2002 bout took the speed off his fastball like it did for fighters like Ezzard Charles and Gabriel Ruelas. Maybe the modern mainstream sports fan had no interest in fighters in the super flyweight division. Or perhaps premium cable execs just didn't think viewers wanted to consistently see the craftsman in short shorts. His less than stellar performance against Gonzalez in 2006 didn't do him any favors either.
"That first fight against Gonzalez I think was a question of styles," he said. "We just couldn't get together. His style and my style could never match that night. It was a difficult fight for both of us and we each wanted to show something and it wasn't possible."
Following the bout, Montiel took the boos he received in California that night to heart. Not only is he unbeaten in his last 12 fights (11 wins and one technical draw), but he's scored nine knockouts. He's not feasting on cupcakes either, as his ledger since February of 2007 includes highly-touted Z Gorres (W12), Martin Castillo (KO4), Luis Maldonado (TKO3), Diego Silva (KO3), Ciso Morales (TKO1), Hozumi Hasegawa (TKO4), and Rafael Concepcion (KO3).
"After the (Gonzalez) fight I heard the criticism and thought I needed to do something about it and I did," he said. "I changed my style and became more aggressive. I wanted to give people a better show – a better fight. I think I have done that. My style is better and it has shown in my fights. Now I get another opportunity on HBO and I'm not going to mess it up – I'm going to do real well."
31-year old bantamweights at the top of their game are as rare as Bigfoot sightings. To hold two major sanctioning body belts (WBC and WBO) at the same age is even more amazing. Adding in that he did it while switching to a more physically punishing style adds to the feat. This wasn't Marco Antonio Barrera going from brawler to boxer to add more longevity to his career. This is a fighter who, in essence, is saying, 'well, I'm getting older, so I'm going to plant my feet and force you to knock me out of this sport.' It worked for Marquez, and now it's working for Montiel. The finish of Hasegawa last April was the icing on the cake and earned "Cochulito" some well-deserved votes for 2010 Fighter of the Year.
"I always believed that I was that level type of fighter," he said. "One of the elite fighters, but I never had the opportunity to fight one of those type fighters…that opportunity was there and I took it. I showed the level that I was at. It was one of those wins that puts you at another level."
On Saturday, after two more quick KO victories, Montiel will meet his Waterloo or he will finally receive the respect he's deserved for all these years. Donaire is just three years younger than the champion, but he has a lot less wear on him. Some believe he hasn't even reached his prime yet, and impressive notation considering that the names Vic Darchinyan, Raul Martinez, Hernan Marquez, and Wladimir Sidorenko already dot his victims list.
"He is obviously a fighter that has a lot of speed," said Montiel of his foe. "He moves around the ring and is an intelligent fighter. The question to me is what is going to happen when he fights a guy that is just as intelligent, just as strong and just as good as he is. That is the question – when he fights someone that is equal to him. I think it's the first time he will find a fighter that is just as good as he is."
The anticipation leading up to this bout is reminiscent of the lead-up to the bouts between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, and stylistically, it wouldn't be too far a stretch to suggest that Montiel and Donaire can deliver the same kind of intense action. Of course, given the disappointment of last month's highly-anticipated Superfight between Timothy Bradley and Devon Alexander, containing your excitement level has become a necessary requirement of being a boxing fan these days. Montiel says not to worry, because he's bringing it, and he's willing to take all the risks necessary to beat his foe.
"You have to fight smart but I am here to entertain too," he said. "I want people to go in there and say that is a fight that they will remember for a long time. If we need to break into a war, let's do a war if that's what needs to be done. But it is certainly not going to be a boring fight."
"I am ready to risk getting knocked down and getting back up and knocking him down and him getting back up," Montiel continues. "I want it to be a great fight so everybody can remember, so maybe we cannot do only one but maybe two or three."
Risk. War. Battle. No Mercy. Adaptation. They are the words that not only guarantee your survival in the sport, but they're the ones that take you to a place where the mere mention of your name produces a respectful nod of the head and a story or two about when you dug deep and went to places most fighters don't want to go. The oddsmakers believe that a younger and faster Donaire has enough in his bag of tricks to beat Montiel without going to such a place. Montiel disagrees because only he knows how far he can dig in search of not only victory, but of eternal fistic glory.
"The people that come up to me are just like you guys," said Montiel when talking to the worldwide media. "They think it is a very tough fight and it's up for grabs. Either guy can win and a lot of people think I can lose this fight and I'm the underdog. But to me that's not a problem. I believe I'm going to win this fight and that's what I'm going to do."

Harry would love the England job and I think most people would agree he would be good in that role. However I think this could be a case of have your cake and eat it.
I think Harry could and should do both, keegan did! it will allow him to keep a closer eye on whats happening in the premier league and hopefully see something special.
If the worst was to happen, Martin O'Neil would do, but I question the way his team play football, I know Villa fans who were infuriated by him!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I think Arry would be very tempted but I think it could be the wosrt thing he could do. You only have to look at what happened to McLaren, Hoddle, Taylor and more recently Capello (and just about everybody else since Ramsay) to realise it is a job you can only fail in.
The expectations we put on the England team V the skill and desire that the players deliver are so wide apart you would be a fool to take it on. There is only one worse Managers job and that is at Liverpool at the moment. Of course he will be tempted so that he can put it on his CV, and who could blame him, but it will all end in tears if he does.
If he goes we are in trouble as I don't see any automatic choices out there at the moment. I would prefer English or at least British so O'Neil would have to be in the frame. Warnock I don't like but he seems to get the best out of teams. Other than that the only option is to do what the Pool fans are crying out for (Kenny Dalgleish) and that would entail getting Venables back and I am not sure that would work either. Lets just hope he doesn't go shall we.

id love harry to take over from capello. id hate it from a spurs point of view.
i dont think theres a better man out there for the trouble.
the mess england are in is similar to the mess we were in when he took over. i think he would do what he has done for us for england too.

I was contacted by this company after mindlessly entering a contest to enter a free car at the Blackhawks game. I was then advised that I won a 3 day trip to Orlando or Vegas. Nothing to buy and no time share to purchase. I only needed to give them an hour of my time with my wife (make arrangements for babysitting) and make over $30K/yr...oh yes, and be over 21 yrs of age. Here's the rub. i specifically asked if I was going to be solicited to buy something (b/c I was told I had to pick up my free trip in person). I was told no. Now that I have done the research to see that I will be solicited, I will not be attending. I have noticed that they have called 5 times since we initially agreed to meet with them...and the date scheduled hasn't even arrived yet.
Thank you to everyone for clearing the air. Most of all, thank you to Becca for showing what the company philosophy is really about....screwing the consumer!

What weapons are good to use when playing online on a more advanced level?
I'm a lieutenant colonel now and the fights have gotten a lot tougher. The common ISA assault rifle just doesn't seem to cut it anymore since everyone is one-hit kill weapon happy (sniper, RPG, shotgun, grenades flying everywhere). It's the only thing I've been using, though, because I was just good with it. Should I become shotgun happy? I don't want to use the RPG, cuz it just feels cheap.
Wish I could use the M6 machine gun.

The Shotgun and The Sniper is the absolute best choices if you ask me, after you have gotten the "spot and mark" ability with the sniper it's really fun to play. Except those two alot of people usually play as the saboteur with the SMG.

The last thing Killzone 2 community needs is another shotgunner... (to the tell the truth I don't like the class)
There are a lot of them, and they always die from long and mid range.
I think the sniper is better. It depends on the situation you're into too...
If you're soldier the STA3 LMG is hell for enemies. Otherwise try to use the Helghast rifle, is less accurate than the ISA one, but it's more powerful.

if you're playing Radec Academy and Blood Graht there is definetely nothing better than the engineer class but the LMG is really good too and so is the sniper, the scout class is probably the better if you want to have more fun while playing. I on the other hand would stay away from the helghast rifle, it's terrible

I've had no luck with the helghast rifle , I tried the shotgun yesterday and it was a big step up from the ISA rifle in terms of kills right now (even though it feels like the most sluggish gun). I don't have the sniper, yet though.
I think I need a bit more practice if I want to go after the 1% at this level, and also find weapons that suit me (that aren't RPG's ).

So I found out the trick to being great is shooting without using the scope (oh, and being unpredictable). I've been playing in elite mode which is a great way to practice that skill. I have no doubt I'll be getting the 1% trophy next week. I'm pretty much good with any weapon like this.
|November 5th, 2010, 12:12 AM
I prefer the Saboteur class. It takes a while to get used to their main weapon but once you do it's almost as good as a rifle. On top of that you get the proximity bombs which can be very useful when planting them in high traffic areas.

@ Kzone3. Weapon choice really is a matter of personal preference. Spend some "quality' time using each of the various weapons until you find one or two, or maybe even three, that you are proficient at using. Ideally you will be good at wielding whatever weapon is available.
Any weapon you can maintain a 2/1 or better kd/r with.
100%: AVP, Bioshock 1 & 2 & Infinite, CoDBO I & II, CoDClassic, CoD MW2 & 3, CoDWaW, F1 2010, GTAV, Infamous (1, 2, FoB), KZ( HD, 2, 3), MGS (2 & 3 & PW HD, 4), Pure, RE5, RE6 (sucks!), Soldner X2:Final Prototype, The Chronicles of Riddick, Uncharted 1 & 2
Incomplete: F1 2012 (97%), Mag (0%), Soldner-X: Himmelssturmer (80%), WipEout HD (85%),

Each weapon has its strengths and weaknesses depending on the situation. My preference was the smaller maps though so I was using the shotgun a lot. If you have the revolver you are set with a very nice weapon for long range as well. Couple that with the sentry bots and using the tacticians air support ability with engineer you can do a lot of damage.

Best overhand right.. Tim Witherspoon or Renaldo Snipes?
I recall both of them had awesome overhand rights. But, who's was superior? I give the slight edge to Tim...

I'd say Witherspoon, but Snipes was no slouche. I was never a fan of Witherspoon though. I was extremely impressed with the fight that Snipes gave Holmes, he used a great jab to get Holmes abit out of his rythme.
As a stable that had awsome over hand rights I think that no stable compares to that of the Kronk stable. It seemed that every Kronk guy that I fought could rock you with one. Then you watch Hearns, McCrory, McClellan, etc. Well trained fighters out of that gym to say the least.........Rockin'.

Other than the knockdown of Holmes I just don't see anything that impressive about Snipes.

Witherspoon's 'Can Opener' too me is far superior to Snipe's, scary weapon.

I would have loved to see an in-shape 1986 Witherspoon take on Mike Tyson. He would have been Mike's toughest and most dangerous test.
Snipes fired an occasional big right (Holmes and Berbick), while Tim's was always a huge threat.

I would go with Terrible Tim's right as well. But it is deceving because Tim had alot of other skills and Reynaldo main asset was that right hand.
Note about Snipes-Berbick. A couple fights before it, Snipes fought Scott Frank who had a pretty solid chin. Snipes landed a few big right hands and Frank invited him to do again, still they just bounced off Frank's chin. So two fights later Berbick who had a fairly good chin himself, invited Snipes to do the same and boom! Berbick got knocked down. It was a fight Berbick should have and could have won but he paid for his mistake and ended up losing a very close decision.

Witherspoon's "Can Opener?!!" I didn't know that was the name of it. Well, it destroyed Frank Bruno. It was very devastating. I think it at least rivals Razor Ruddock's "Smash," which was a hybrid left-uppercut/left-hook. Look at the way Tim layed out Anders Ekland...

Sneak peek new part!!!!!
WE have been working on a Strut Tower Brace that actually works so here is the first look!!
We will be starting a group by on em that way we know how many to make on the first run something we should have done with the links since we have now sold out of almost the first two runs in only a few weeks.
It will be built out of Aluminum and I may or May not offer a Powder-coated options just unsure right now we are so busy we just don't want to get tied down with all kinds of Powder-coating issues.
These will be able to be painted,Polished,Laminated in Carbon Fiber or Anodized so this piece will have plenty of options for anyone out their looking to add a bit more to the engine bay while increasing performance of the overall geometry of the Truck.
Price is yet to be determined and design may or may not still change.
The ends are going to be Cast Aluminum since it will be too costly to make these out of a straight block of machined Aluminum. If people are willing to pay we may offer a cast and or a Machined end but I will warn everyone a Machined end will be triple what a cast End costs.
NOTE WILL NOT use any Chinese Aluminum!!! Their is a big difference.
These will be Proudly MADE IN THE USA just like everything else we build and sell!!!:thumbsup:
Next up COLD AIR INTAKE:cool:
Re: Sneak peek new part!!!!!
Nice looking piece looking forward to updates!

Sneak peek new part!!!!!
OMG how sexy do they look ,well done Chad , looking forward to see your CAI as well
iPad @ JeepGarage
Re: Sneak peek new part!!!!!
I'm interested depending on cost. To confirm, what material and production method will be for the center? Regarding casting you are only referring to the end pieces correct?
What casting method are you using for them? Which aluminum and will they be heat treated?
Thanks in advance.
Re: Sneak peek new part!!!!!
We are not bench welding a bunch of pieces together then hiding them with powder coat.
Yes I was talking about the Ends being cast or a Machined option as well. Remember this is really rough so I am just showing a peek things will change.
We will show something fully detailed when we start the group buy with all the info one would need to make an educated decision. We by no means build with false claims like others with no proof to back it up just to sell stuff. A full FEA test will be done so be assured these will work.
Tom is right I'm sure their will be one made today :lol: but like end links their are a few strut bars out their that are designed wrong so if it's not done correctly it's useless. More on this later can't make it easy for the copy cats.
BTW heard rumors floating around that we broke the competitions end links for pictures LOL most ridiculous thing I've ever heard!! Myself Tom and a Few Others know Dennis who's tuck they came off :lol: What an ass clown

Characterization of Single-Shot Large-Signal Phenomena
Device and PA Circuit Level Validations
Linear Technology Corp. introduces the LTC2338-18, an 18-bit 1 Msps no latency analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a wide ±10.24 V fully differential, true bipolar input range for high voltage, industrial applications. The device operates from a single 5V supply, achieves 100 dB SNR and -110 dB THD and features an internal 2.048 V (20 ppm/°C max) reference and reference buffer. An input divider network scales and level shifts the input signal, eliminating complicated circuitry required to directly interface true bipolar signals.
The LTC2338-18 leads a pin- and software-compatible family of 18-bit serial SPI SAR ADCs with speeds ranging from 250 ksps to 1 Msps. A pin-compatible 16-bit and 18-bit family with pseudo differential true bipolar inputs (LTC2328-18) will also be available. The proprietary internal reference buffer maintains less than 1LSB error during sudden burst of conversions, enabling true one-shot operation after lengthy idle periods. These ADCs operate from a single 5V supply and consume just 50mW at 1Msps. Power further reduces linearly at slower sample rates. A shutdown mode dissipates only 300µW when idle.
The DC1908A demonstration board enables easy evaluation of the LTC2338 family in conjunction with the DC590B (QuikEval™) or DC718C (PScope™) data collection boards. The fully differential LTC2338-18 and pseudo differential LTC2328-18 families are available in small MSOP-16 packages in commercial, industrial and automotive temperature grades. Pricing begins at $29.10 in 1,000 piece quantities. For more information, visit www.linear.com/product/LTC2338.
Summary of Features: LTC2338-18:
1Msps Throughput Rate
±4LSB INL Max
Fully Differential Inputs
True Bipolar Input Ranges ±6.25V, ±10.24V, ±12.5V
100dB SNR (Typ) at fIN = 2kHz
