LTC1096AIS8#PBF

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The LTC1096AIS8#PBF is an 8-bit micropower successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter in an 8-lead SOIC package. It features a single differential analog input and operates on a 5V supply with an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device draws 80μA during conversion and enters a shutdown mode with 1nA typical current. It includes an internal sample-and-hold, allowing sampling rates up to 33kHz at 5V. Data transfers via a 3-wire serial interface compatible with standard microprocessor ports.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• 8-bit resolution with ±0.5LSB total unadjusted error over the operating temperature range
• Micropower consumption: 80μA active, 1nA shutdown
• Single differential analog input with integrated sample-and-hold
• 3-wire synchronous serial interface for direct MPU connection

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• Battery-operated systems
• Remote data acquisition
• Battery monitoring and gas gauges
• Temperature measurement
• Isolated data acquisition

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific 'AI' suffix indicates the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) and 5V operation. Confirm the S8 package designation matches the required 8-lead SOIC footprint. Ensure the #PBF suffix confirms lead-free compliance for assembly processes.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring a single differential input channel rather than the multiplexed inputs of the LTC1098 series. Choose the 5V version (LTC1096) over the 3V version (LTC1096L) if the system supply exceeds 4V. Verify that the 3-wire interface timing meets the microcontroller's clock requirements.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This component belongs to the LTC1096 family of micropower ADCs. The 'I' suffix denotes the industrial temperature range variant, while 'S8' specifies the plastic SOIC package. It is distinct from the LTC1098, which offers a 2-channel multiplexer instead of a fixed differential input.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The LTC1096IS8#PBF serves as a lower-grade alternative within the same package and pinout. The LTC1096AIN8#PBF provides the same electrical characteristics but in an 8-lead PDIP package.
