2.2.1.2 Power Supply Option 2

Option 2 supplies power to the 1.8-V analog and digital rails of the ADC by using the TPS79618. The TPS79618 is a low-noise dropout regulator - the 1.5-V dropout voltage (3.3 V to 1.8 V) provides sufficient headroom for maximum PSRR and ADC performance. However, it comes at the expense of higher system power consumption.
