CS5016-BL16Z

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The CS5016-BL16Z is a 16-bit monolithic CMOS analog-to-digital converter featuring self-calibrating architecture. It delivers true 16-bit precision with guaranteed no missing codes and a linearity error of ±0.001% FS. The device operates with a conversion time of 16.25 µs and supports throughput rates up to 50 kSps. It utilizes an inherent track-and-hold input via an on-chip buffer amplifier. Power consumption is specified at 150 mW, with low distortion characteristics including a total harmonic distortion of 0.001%. The component accepts unipolar or bipolar input ranges digitally selectable by the user.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BL16Z against manufacturer ordering information to confirm package type and temperature range. Ensure supply voltage requirements match the system design, as the device typically requires dual supplies (e.g., +5V/-5V) and a reference voltage between 2.5V and 4.5V. Confirm clock frequency compatibility with the external CLKIN source for desired throughput rates.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this model when 16-bit resolution and high linearity are critical. The CS5016 offers slower conversion speeds compared to the CS5012A/14 variants but provides superior accuracy. Consider the internal oscillator jitter if synchronous sampling purity is required; an external crystal clock may be necessary for optimal dynamic performance. Ensure the application can accommodate the calibration cycle duration during reset.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

The CS5016 is part of the CS5012A/14/16 family of self-calibrating A/D converters from Cirrus Logic. These devices share pin compatibility and architectural similarities, differing primarily in resolution (12, 14, and 16 bits) and corresponding conversion times. The family utilizes a charge redistribution DAC architecture with successive approximation algorithms.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

Pin-compatible alternatives within the same family include the CS5014 (14-bit) and CS5012A (12-bit). Substitution requires verification that the lower resolution meets system accuracy requirements. No other cross-model substitutes are confirmed in public documentation.
