Product details
Overview
5962-8876401LX from Analog Devices is a military-grade, 8-channel, 8-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with built-in track-and-hold, single 5 V supply operation, ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error, 2.5 µs conversion time per channel, and operation across –55°C to +125°C. It serves as a high-speed data acquisition front-end in avionics sensor interfaces and ruggedized telemetry systems.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-8876401LX datasheet, 5962-8876401LX pinout, 5962-8876401LX application, or 5962-8876401LX equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, military-spec package details, timing-critical interface guidance, and validated alternatives for MIL-STD-883B-compliant embedded acquisition designs.
Technical Context
The 5962-8876401LX implements a half-flash architecture using two cascaded 4-bit flash ADCs - one for MSBs and one for LSBs - with an internal 4-bit DAC reconstructing the MSB analog value for residual subtraction. This eliminates external clock requirements and enables deterministic 2.5 µs conversion latency.
It supports dual operational modes: Mode 0 uses RDY/INT status outputs to assert microprocessor WAIT/DTACK signals, while Mode 1 decouples conversion initiation from data readback via address latching on RD rising edge - critical for real-time TMS32010 and Z80-based flight control firmware.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8 bits - delivers 256 discrete digital codes over full-scale input range. |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1/2 LSB max - ensures monotonicity and no missing codes without user calibration. |
| Conversion Time | 2.5 µs per channel - enables 100 kHz sampling on 4 channels or 50 kHz on all 8 channels. |
| Analog Input Bandwidth | 10 kHz full-scale signal handling - supports direct digitization of transducer outputs without external S/H. |
| Supply Voltage | 5 V ±5% - compatible with standard MIL-STD-704A avionics power buses. |

Pinout & Package
5962-8876401LX is supplied in a hermetically sealed 28-lead ceramic dual-in-line package (CERDIP), compliant with MIL-STD-883B and DESC Drawing #5692-88764. Package outline matches standard N-28 footprint with 0.600" body width and 0.100" lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4, 6–9, 11–14 | Analog Inputs (AIN1–AIN8) | Eight single-ended voltage inputs; AIN5–AIN8 present only on AD7828 variant; unused pins are NC. |
| 5 | VDD | +5 V supply pin; requires local 47 µF + 0.1 µF bypassing per datasheet Figure 5. |
| 10 | A0 | LSB address input for channel selection; latched on RD rising edge in Mode 1. |
| 11 | A1 | Mid-bit address input; used with A0 and A2 to select one of eight analog channels. |
| 12 | A2 | MSB address input; active only on AD7828 (8-channel) configuration. |
| 15–22 | Data Bus (DB0–DB7) | Three-state CMOS outputs; drive 360 µA high / 1.6 mA low; require pull-ups for open-drain RDY. |
| 23 | CS | Chip Select; active-low enable that initiates conversion when combined with RD. |
| 24 | RD | Read strobe; falling edge starts conversion in Mode 0; rising edge latches address in Mode 1. |
| 25 | RDY | Open-drain ready indicator; pulled low at CS fall, returns high-Z after conversion completes. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external clock required | Half-flash architecture self-times conversion - eliminates clock routing, jitter, and layout complexity in EMI-sensitive platforms. |
| Built-in track-and-hold | Supports 10 kHz full-scale sinusoidal inputs (157 mV/µs slew rate) without external components - reduces BOM count and board area in sensor nodes. |
| MIL-STD-883B qualified | Tested per Method 1015.8 (temperature cycling), 2001.5 (preconditioning), and 5005.3 (steady-state life) - ensures reliability in launch vibration and thermal shock environments. |
| Two-mode digital interface | Mode 0 supports WAIT-driven Z80/MC68000 integration; Mode 1 enables non-blocking TMS32010 I/O - simplifies firmware porting across legacy DSP architectures. |
| Differential reference inputs | VREF (+) and VREF (–) allow ratiometric measurement and offset-adjusted unipolar/bipolar ranges - essential for strain gauge and RTD conditioning in flight control surfaces. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit multichannel ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7828TQ | Same die, plastic DIP (Q-28) package; not MIL-STD-883B screened; –55°C to +125°C temp range retained. | Lacks DESC qualification, burn-in, and lot acceptance testing - unsuitable for flight-critical hardware but acceptable for ground-test benches. | Select AD7828TQ only for non-mission-critical prototyping or lab validation where cost and lead time outweigh qualification requirements. |
| MAX195BCPI+ | 5 V, 16-bit, 100 kSPS SAR ADC; serial SPI interface; no built-in track-and-hold; higher resolution but slower effective throughput per channel. | Requires external driver op-amp and anti-alias filter; incompatible pinout and timing model - redesign needed for drop-in replacement. | Choose MAX195BCPI+ only when 16-bit resolution and lower noise floor justify added signal chain complexity and firmware changes. |
Compared with AD7828TQ, 5962-8876401LX provides guaranteed radiation tolerance, lot traceability, and extended life testing - making it irreplaceable in flight hardware. Against MAX195BCPI+, 5962-8876401LX offers deterministic latency, no external clock, and integrated track-and-hold - essential for real-time control loops.

FAQ
What is the military specification compliance status of the 5962-8876401LX?
The 5962-8876401LX is fully compliant with U.S. Standard Military Drawing (SMD) #5692-88764 and qualified per MIL-STD-883B, including Methods 1015.8 (temperature cycling), 2001.5 (preconditioning), and 5005.3 (steady-state life). It carries DESC certification and is processed to /883B standards - confirming its suitability for flight-critical avionics hardware.
Does the 5962-8876401LX require an external clock signal to operate?
No, the 5962-8876401LX does not require an external clock. Its half-flash conversion architecture internally generates timing for both the 4-bit MSB and LSB flash ADC stages. Conversion is initiated solely by CS and RD control signals - eliminating clock distribution, jitter sensitivity, and associated PCB layout constraints.
What is the maximum analog input frequency the 5962-8876401LX can digitize without external sample-and-hold?
The 5962-8876401LX supports full-scale analog input frequencies up to 10 kHz per channel without external sample-and-hold circuitry. This is enabled by its inherent track-and-hold function, which stabilizes the selected input for ~1 µs after conversion start - sufficient for signals with ≤157 mV/µs slew rate.
How does the 5962-8876401LX handle channel selection in Mode 1 operation?
In Mode 1, the 5962-8876401LX latches the A0, A1, and A2 address inputs on the rising edge of the RD signal. A READ operation initiates conversion on the newly selected channel while simultaneously outputting the result from the previous conversion on DB0–DB7 - enabling non-blocking, pipelined acquisition ideal for TMS32010-based systems.
What reference configuration options does the 5962-8876401LX support?
The 5962-8876401LX supports fully differential reference inputs (VREF (+) and VREF (–)), enabling unipolar (0 V to VREF span), bipolar (±VREF/2), or offset-adjusted ranges. Ratiometric operation is supported by tying VREF (–) to sensor excitation - critical for bridge-based transducers in flight control surface monitoring.
