Product details
Overview
AD1380KD from Analog Devices is a complete, low-cost 16-bit sampling analog-to-digital converter with integrated reference, clock, and sample-and-hold amplifier. It delivers ±0.003% FSR linearity error, 14 μs max conversion time, and 50 kHz throughput in a 32-lead hermetic ceramic DIP package, targeting high-accuracy data acquisition in professional instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD1380KD datasheet, AD1380KD pinout, AD1380KD application, or AD1380KD equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation guidance, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application differences.
Technical Context
The AD1380KD uses a successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with monolithic DAC and thin-film-on-silicon scaling resistors, enabling user-selectable input ranges: ±2.5 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, 0 V to +5 V, and 0 V to +10 V. Its combined ADC/Sample-and-Hold transfer characteristics are fully specified and guaranteed as a system.
It features TTL/5 V CMOS-compatible parallel digital outputs, a dedicated BUSY (STATUS) flag, and internal timing circuitry that generates 17 clock cycles per conversion initiated by the trailing edge of the CONVERT START pulse. Serial output was discontinued after date code 0120 and is not available on AD1380KD.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - delivers 65,536 discrete quantization levels for high dynamic range signal digitization |
| Linearity Error | ±0.003% FSR - ensures end-point accuracy within ±2.6 LSB over full-scale range, critical for calibration-sensitive systems |
| Conversion Time | 14 μs maximum - enables 50 kHz sustained throughput with deterministic timing for real-time control loops |
| Analog Input Ranges | ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2.5 V, 0–5 V, 0–10 V - selectable via external pin connections without external scaling components |
| Sample-and-Hold Performance | 900 kHz small-signal bandwidth and 100 ps rms aperture jitter - preserves integrity of fast-rising or high-frequency analog inputs |
| Power Dissipation | 900 mW - low power for a full-featured 16-bit SAR ADC with integrated SHA and reference, easing thermal management |
| Temperature Range | 0°C to +70°C (specified), −25°C to +85°C (operating) - suitable for commercial and industrial environments with stable ambient conditions |
Pinout & Package
AD1380KD is housed in a 32-lead hermetic bottom-brazed ceramic dual-in-line package (DH-32E, BBDIP_H), with 0.100" lead pitch and index notch adjacent to Pin 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | −15 V | Analog supply return - must be decoupled locally to ANALOG COMMON (Pin 8) to minimize noise coupling into conversion path |
| 2 | +15 V | Positive analog supply - requires 1 μF + 0.1 μF bypassing to Pin 30 (ANALOG COMMON) for stable reference and SHA operation |
| 3 | GAIN ADJ | External gain trim node - connects to 100 ppm/°C potentiometer across ±15 V for ±0.2% FSR adjustment |
| 4 | BIPOLAR | Input range configuration - logic high selects bipolar coding (complementary offset binary); grounded for unipolar |
| 5 | COMPARATOR IN | Noise-sensitive comparator input - must be guarded by ANALOG COMMON and kept short to avoid offset drift |
| 6 | +10 V SPAN | Analog input scaling - connects to signal source for ±10 V or 0–10 V ranges; referenced to Pin 31 (S/H IN) |
| 7 | +20 V SPAN | Analog input scaling - used with Pin 6 for ±20 V span configuration in extended-range applications |
| 26 | CLOCK OUT | Internally generated gated clock - active only during conversion; synchronizes parallel data valid timing |
| 27 | BUSY | Status flag - high during conversion, falls to logic low when 16-bit parallel output is stable and ready to latch |
| 28 | START CONVERT | Edge-triggered command - conversion initiated on trailing edge of ≥50 ns pulse; must remain low throughout conversion |
| 29 | +5 V | Digital supply - bypassed to DIGITAL COMMON (Pin 30) to isolate logic noise from analog sections |
| 30 | DIGITAL COMMON | Digital ground return - externally tied to ANALOG COMMON (Pin 8) at single point near device to prevent ground loops |
| 31 | S/H IN | Analog input - accepts conditioned signal; internal sample-and-hold captures voltage at START CONVERT edge |
| 32 | NC | No connect - left unconnected; not internally bonded or functional |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Complete system-on-package | Integrates 16-bit SAR ADC, precision sample-and-hold, internal reference, and clock generator - eliminates external timing and reference design complexity |
| Guaranteed system-level performance | Specified gain, offset, and linearity apply to combined ADC + SHA - no need to budget separate errors for subsystems |
| Flexible input scaling | Five standard analog input ranges implemented via pin strapping - no external op-amps or resistor networks required |
| Low-noise sample-and-hold | 300 μV p-p output noise and 900 kHz bandwidth - supports accurate digitization of signals up to ~140 kHz without aliasing |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible interface | All digital I/O meets LSTTL loading and voltage thresholds - directly interfaces with legacy microcontrollers and FPGA I/O banks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7892BRZ | 12-bit resolution, 1.5 μs conversion time, no internal reference or SHA; requires external clock and reference | Lower cost, higher speed, but lacks system integration - suited for space-constrained designs where external support circuitry is already present | Select when 12-bit accuracy suffices and board area is critical; not drop-in due to resolution, pin count, and missing integrated functions |
| ADS8588HIPM | 18-bit resolution, 1.25 μs conversion, integrated reference and SHA, SPI interface only (no parallel bus) | Higher resolution and speed, but serial-only interface increases host processor overhead and eliminates direct memory-mapped access | Choose for next-generation systems needing >16-bit accuracy and modern digital interfaces; requires PCB redesign and firmware changes |
Compared with AD1380KD, AD7892BRZ trades integration and accuracy for speed and footprint, while ADS8588HIPM upgrades resolution and speed but abandons parallel output - making AD1380KD uniquely balanced for legacy-compatible, high-accuracy, system-integrated 16-bit DAQ.

FAQ
What is the maximum linearity error specification for AD1380KD?
The AD1380KD has a maximum linearity error of ±0.003% of full-scale range (FSR), which corresponds to ±2.6 LSB at 16-bit resolution. This value is guaranteed over the specified 0°C to +70°C temperature range and applies to the combined ADC and sample-and-hold amplifier subsystem as a fully characterized unit. The AD1380KD datasheet explicitly states this performance level in Table 1 and the Ordering Guide.
Does AD1380KD include an internal reference and clock generator?
Yes, the AD1380KD integrates both an internal reference and clock generator as part of its complete system-on-package architecture. The reference enables stable conversion across all supported input ranges (±2.5 V to ±10 V, 0–5 V, 0–10 V), and the internal clock eliminates the need for an external timing source. These functions are confirmed in the General Description, Functional Block Diagram, and Features sections of the AD1380 Rev. D datasheet.
What package type is used for AD1380KD?
The AD1380KD is packaged in a 32-lead hermetic bottom-brazed ceramic dual-in-line package (DH-32E, BBDIP_H), as specified in the Ordering Guide and Outline Dimensions section of the Rev. D datasheet. This package features a 0.100" lead pitch, index notch adjacent to Pin 1, and is rated for operation from −25°C to +85°C with specified performance from 0°C to +70°C.
Is serial output available on AD1380KD?
No, serial output functionality was discontinued for the AD1380 family after date code 0120 and is not available on the AD1380KD. The device provides only parallel TTL/5 V CMOS-compatible digital outputs (Bits 1–16, BUSY, CLOCK OUT). This is explicitly stated in the General Description ("The serial output function is no longer available after date code 0120") and confirmed in the Digital Output Data section.
How does AD1380KD handle analog input range selection?
The AD1380KD supports five analog input ranges (±2.5 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, 0–5 V, 0–10 V) through external pin connections - specifically Pins 4 (BIPOLAR), 6 (+10 V SPAN), 7 (+20 V SPAN), and 31 (S/H IN) - as detailed in Table 3 and Figure 8 of the datasheet. No external op-amps or resistor networks are required; range selection is achieved by strapping these pins to appropriate supply or ground references.
