LTC1196-1ACS8#PBF

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The LTC1196-1ACS8#PBF is an 8-bit, 1Msps successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Analog Devices. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7V to 6V, with power dissipation of 10mW at 3V and 50mW at 5V. The device features a differential analog input, external reference capability, and a 3-wire serial interface (CS, CLK, DOUT). Key specifications include ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error for the A-grade device, full-scale bandwidth of 8MHz, and a maximum sampling frequency of 1MHz. It is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO package.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• High-speed 8-bit resolution with up to 1Msps sampling rate
• Differential analog input configuration
• Low power consumption: 10mW at 3V, 50mW at 5V
• Single supply operation from 2.7V to 6V
• 3-wire serial I/O interface compatible with standard logic

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• High speed data acquisition systems
• Portable or compact instrumentation
• Disk drives
• Low power or battery-operated systems

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix #PBF indicates lead-free finish and tube packaging. Confirm the 'A' grade designation ensures the specified ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error over temperature. Check availability status as distribution may vary by region.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring high sampling rates with low power constraints. The differential input allows measurement of signals floating on DC common mode voltages. Ensure the system clock can support up to 14.4MHz for maximum conversion speed. Compare with LTC1198 if multiplexing or auto-shutdown features are required instead.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

This component belongs to the LTC1196/LTC1198 family of 8-bit ADCs. The LTC1196 variant specifically provides a differential input and external reference pin, distinguishing it from the LTC1198 which includes a 2-channel MUX and auto-shutdown functionality. Both share similar performance characteristics regarding speed and power.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

LTC1196-1BCS8#PBF offers the same functionality but with B-grade specifications. LTC1198-1ACS8#PBF is functionally different due to its multiplexer and shutdown features.
