ADS8317IDGKT

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The ADS8317IDGKT is a 16-bit successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates with a sampling rate of 250 kSPS and supports both differential and single-ended input configurations. The device functions on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 5.5 V for both analog and digital domains. It features an SPI-compatible serial interface and is housed in an 8-pin VSSOP package. Key performance metrics include a signal-to-noise ratio of 84.8 dB, a power dissipation of 15 mW, and an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• Micro-power architecture designed for low energy consumption applications
• Flexible input structure supporting differential or single-ended signals
• SPI-compatible serial interface for simplified digital connectivity

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Portable instrumentation systems requiring high resolution and low power
• Battery-powered data acquisition devices
• Industrial process control monitoring

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix IDGKT to confirm the 8-VSSOP package type and tape-and-reel packaging format. Ensure compatibility with the required 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply rails and SPI protocol levels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process before finalizing procurement.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-bit resolution and 250 kSPS throughput are required within a compact surface-mount footprint. It is suitable for designs needing a single-supply operation between 2.7 V and 5.5 V. Consider the external reference requirement and the specific SNR performance of 84.8 dB against system noise floor constraints.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments ADS8317 series of micro-power ADCs. It shares the core SAR architecture and low-power characteristics with other members of the family but is distinguished by its specific 16-bit resolution, 250 kSPS speed, and 8-VSSOP packaging configuration.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Check for ADS8317 variants with different package options such as the IBDRBT in SON-8 if board space constraints differ. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply range and SPI interface compatibility.
