ADS7960SRHBR

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADS7960SRHBR is an 8-bit, 12-channel successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates with a sampling rate of 1 MSPS and supports single-ended inputs via an SPI interface. The device functions within an analog supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.25 V and a digital supply range of 1.7 V to 5.25 V. Key performance metrics include a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 49 dB, a total harmonic distortion metric (SINAD) of 49 dB, and integral nonlinearity (INL) of 0.12% FSR. Power consumption is rated at 11.5 mW. It is housed in a VQFN-32 package and operates between -40°C and +125°C.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RHBR' corresponds to the VQFN-32 package and reel packaging format as documented. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed due to moisture sensitivity classification. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to ensure compatibility with design specifications.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component when high channel count is required alongside moderate resolution and speed. Compare against the ADS7953 for higher resolution needs or the ADS7957 for increased channel counts. Verify that the single-ended input topology matches the sensor interface requirements. Ensure the external reference voltage aligns with the desired full-scale input range.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the ADS7960 family of microPower SAR ADCs from Texas Instruments. It shares architectural similarities with the ADS7953 and ADS7957 but offers a specific balance of 8-bit resolution and 12 channels. The SRHBR designation indicates the surface-mount VQFN-32 variant optimized for automated assembly processes.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The ADS7960SDBT serves as a pin-compatible alternative in a TSSOP-38 package. For higher resolution requirements, consider the ADS7953 series. For increased channel density, evaluate the ADS7957 series.
