ADC0838CCV

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADC0838CCV is an 8-bit analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture and supports up to eight input channels with configurable multiplexing for single-ended, pseudo-differential, or differential operations. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 6.3 V and utilizes an SPI-compatible serial interface for data communication. Packaged in a 20-PLCC (9x9 mm) format, it is designed for applications requiring moderate-speed conversion within a compact surface-mount footprint.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• 8-bit resolution with SAR architecture
• Configurable 8-channel multiplexer supporting single-ended, pseudo-differential, and differential inputs
• SPI-compatible serial interface
• External reference capability

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Industrial process control systems
• Battery-powered instrumentation
• Data acquisition modules

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

The ADC0838CCV belongs to the ADC083x family of low-power, high-speed A/D converters. This specific part number denotes the commercial temperature grade variant housed in a 20-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package. While functionally similar to other variants like the SOIC or TSSOP versions, the PLCC form factor provides distinct mechanical mounting characteristics for PCB layouts requiring this specific footprint.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The obsolete ADC0838CCWM is listed as a direct replacement alternative. Designers should verify that the target application can accommodate the pinout and thermal characteristics of the substitute package type.
