Product details
Overview
5962-8680201VA from Analog Devices is a military-grade 8-bit monolithic analog-to-digital converter with three-state buffered digital outputs, ±15 V analog input range, 15–40 µs conversion time, and operation across –55°C to +125°C. It serves as a precision data acquisition front-end in avionics sensor interfaces and hardened telemetry systems.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-8680201VA datasheet, 5962-8680201VA pinout, 5962-8680201VA application, or 5962-8680201VA equivalent, this device requires attention to bipolar/unipolar configuration, dual-supply biasing (VCC = +4.5–5.5 V, VEE = –13.5––16.0 V), three-state output control timing, and full-scale error trimmability using a 200 Ω potentiometer.
Technical Context
This ADC implements successive approximation architecture with internal reference and buffered parallel output. Its analog input accepts ±15 V unipolar or bipolar signals referenced to analog common, while digital logic operates from separate +5 V and –15 V supplies - enabling isolation between signal and control domains.
The device features BLK/CONV dual-function control pin for conversion initiation and output latching, DATA READY strobe signaling completion, and bit-aligned 8-bit parallel output with three-state capability. Offset and full-scale errors are factory-trimmed and guaranteed over temperature per MIL-PRF-38535 Class Q/V requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8-bit - delivers 256 discrete output codes with no missing codes guaranteed across full scale |
| Conversion Time | 15–40 µs - enables sampling rates up to ~67 kSPS in burst mode with external timing control |
| Analog Input Range | ±15 V - supports direct interfacing to industrial transducers and military-grade sensor outputs without scaling |
| Supply Voltages | VCC = +4.5 to +5.5 V, VEE = –13.5 to –16.0 V - dual-rail operation ensures analog signal headroom and digital noise immunity |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range deployment in engine-mounted or space-qualified subsystems |
| Relative Accuracy | ±0.195% of FS - corresponds to ±0.5 LSB error, sufficient for MIL-STD-1553B bus interface calibration loops |
| Full-Scale Error | ±40 mV unipolar / ±20 mV bipolar - trimmable via 200 Ω potentiometer to meet system-level gain matching requirements |
Pinout & Package
5962-8680201VA uses an 18-pin hermetic Dual-In-Line Package (GDIP1-T18 / CDIP2-T18) per MIL-STD-1835, with tin-lead lead finish and glass-seal construction for moisture resistance and thermal cycling reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No connection - unused pad; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling |
| 2–9 | BIT 8 to MSB BIT 1 | Parallel 8-bit digital output - bit-ordered MSB-first, three-state controlled by BLK/CONV and DATA READY |
| 10 | VCC | +5 V digital supply - decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm to suppress switching noise |
| 11 | BLK and CONV | Combined latch/conversion trigger - rising edge initiates conversion; falling edge latches result into output register |
| 12 | VEE | –15 V analog supply - shared return path for analog input stage and internal reference |
| 13 | ANALOG IN | Differential-capable input - accepts ±15 V relative to ANALOG COM (pin 14); 3 kΩ input resistance limits drive requirements |
| 14 | ANALOG COM | Analog ground reference - must be isolated from DIGITAL COM (pin 16) to prevent ground-loop induced offset drift |
| 15 | BIPOLAR OFF | Bipolar offset control - grounded for unipolar mode; connected to reference for bipolar zero-center adjustment |
| 16 | DIGITAL COM | Digital ground - dedicated return for VCC and output drivers; routed separately from analog ground |
| 17 | DATA READY | Open-collector status flag - pulled low when conversion completes and output data is valid |
| 18 | NC | No connection - electrically isolated; no routing or thermal relief required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Three-state buffered outputs | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without external bus transceivers; output enable synchronized to DATA READY |
| Trimmable full-scale error | Guaranteed ±40 mV unipolar error with 200 Ω potentiometer interface - simplifies system-level calibration without firmware compensation |
| Bipolar/unipolar configuration | Selectable via BIPOLAR OFF (pin 15) grounding - supports both signed and unsigned measurement ranges from single hardware design |
| MIL-PRF-38535 Class Q/V qualification | Qualified to high-reliability standards including burn-in, life testing, and radiation hardness assurance options - suitable for flight-critical subsystems |
| ±1 V analog-to-digital common offset tolerance | Allows up to 1 V potential difference between analog and digital grounds - accommodates PCB layout constraints in mixed-signal enclosures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog-to-digital conversion applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD570SD/883B | Same die, identical electrical specs, but packaged in non-hermetic ceramic DIP with different screening flow (MIL-STD-883 Class B vs Q/V) | Lacks radiation hardness assurance and extended temperature validation; not approved for flight hardware | Select only for ground-test fixtures or non-mission-critical logistics spares where cost outweighs qualification rigor |
| 5962-8680202VA | 10-bit resolution (vs 8-bit), ±0.098% FS relative accuracy, 50 Ω full-scale trim pot requirement, same pinout and package | Higher precision enables sub-LSB resolution in inertial navigation calibrations; increased conversion time marginally reduces max sample rate | Choose when system SNR > 60 dB is required and board layout allows same footprint; verify firmware handles 10-bit word length |
Compared with AD570SD/883B, 5962-8680201VA provides verified radiation tolerance and extended temperature conformance essential for deployed systems; compared with 5962-8680202VA, it trades resolution for faster conversion and simpler trimming, making it optimal for real-time control loops where latency dominates accuracy needs.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum analog input voltage rating for the 5962-8680201VA?
The 5962-8680201VA supports an absolute maximum analog input voltage of ±15 V dc relative to analog common (pin 14). Exceeding this range risks permanent damage to the input protection structure. Operation within the recommended ±15 V range ensures full specification compliance, including differential nonlinearity and offset error limits across the full temperature range.
Does the 5962-8680201VA require external reference voltage or does it include an internal reference?
The 5962-8680201VA integrates an internal reference and does not require an external reference voltage. Its architecture uses a trimmed internal reference to achieve guaranteed full-scale error of ±40 mV in unipolar mode. This eliminates the need for external reference components, reducing BOM count and layout complexity in space-constrained military modules.
How is three-state output control implemented on the 5962-8680201VA?
Three-state output control on the 5962-8680201VA is managed automatically via the BLK/CONV (pin 11) and DATA READY (pin 17) signals. When DATA READY is active low and BLK/CONV is low, outputs are enabled; during conversion or when DATA READY is high, outputs enter high-impedance state. No separate output-enable pin is required - timing is fully synchronous to the internal conversion cycle.
Can the 5962-8680201VA operate with a single +5 V supply?
No, the 5962-8680201VA requires dual supplies: +4.5 V to +5.5 V on VCC (pin 10) and –13.5 V to –16.0 V on VEE (pin 12). The analog section is biased around negative rail, and the ±15 V input range depends on this dual-rail configuration. Attempting single-supply operation will result in undefined behavior and violation of absolute maximum ratings.
What is the purpose of the BIPOLAR OFF pin (pin 15) on the 5962-8680201VA?
The BIPOLAR OFF pin (pin 15) configures the 5962-8680201VA for unipolar (0 to +FS) or bipolar (–FS/2 to +FS/2) operation. Grounding pin 15 selects unipolar mode; connecting it to a reference voltage enables bipolar zero-center adjustment. This pin directly controls internal offset injection and must be externally terminated - floating connections cause undefined transfer function behavior.
