ADS7044IDCUR

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADS7044IDCUR is a 12-bit successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates with a sampling rate of 1 MSPS and supports fully differential input configurations. The device functions within an analog and digital supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V. It features a signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) of 71 dB and consumes 261 uW of power. The component is housed in an 8-VSSOP package, measuring 2.3 mm in length, and is rated for operation between -40°C and +125°C.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix IDCUR against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging configuration and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-VSSOP package. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current regulatory documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component when a 12-bit resolution and 1 MSPS speed are required alongside minimal power consumption. The fully differential input makes it suitable for noisy environments. Compare performance metrics such as SINAD and power dissipation against other SAR ADCs in the same family if system constraints allow for alternative pinouts or resolutions.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADS7044 series of ultra-low-power SAR ADCs from Texas Instruments. The series includes variants like the ADS7042 and ADS7044IDCUT, offering similar core functionalities with differences in packaging or reel quantities. The IDCUR suffix specifically denotes the industrial temperature range and reel packaging format.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The ADS7044IDCUT is listed as a parameter-equivalent substitute, differing primarily in packaging type (cut tape vs. reel). Verify that the change in packaging does not impact automated assembly processes or inventory handling requirements.
