Product details
Overview
AD1674AR from Analog Devices is a complete monolithic 12-bit, 100 kSPS analog-to-digital converter with integrated sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA), on-chip 10 V reference, and three-state parallel digital interface. It supports unipolar (0 V–10 V, 0 V–20 V) and bipolar (±5 V, ±10 V) input ranges, operates on ±12 V/±15 V analog and +5 V logic supplies, and delivers ±1 LSB integral nonlinearity at –40°C to +85°C. It is used in precision data acquisition systems requiring DC accuracy and AC performance such as automated test equipment and industrial process monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the AD1674AR datasheet, AD1674AR pinout, AD1674AR application, or AD1674AR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 12-bit resolution with no missing codes, full Nyquist-bandwidth SHA, guaranteed AC specs (70 dB S/(N+D), –90 dB THD), flexible 8-/12-bit microprocessor interface, and plastic SOIC-28 packaging for industrial temperature operation.
Technical Context
The AD1674AR implements a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with an integrated, user-transparent SHA that acquires to 12-bit accuracy within 1 µs and supports full Nyquist bandwidth sampling. Its internal 10 V reference (9.9–10.1 V) feeds a precision laser-trimmed resistor network enabling four calibrated input ranges without external components.
Digital interface logic supports both full-control mode (using CE, CS, R/C, 12/8, A0) and stand-alone mode (R/C-triggered), with configurable 8-bit or 12-bit parallel output via three-state buffers. Conversion timing is deterministic: 10 µs for 12-bit, 8 µs for 8-bit, with STS status flag and precise aperture delay (50 ns) and jitter (250 ps) specified for dynamic applications.

Pinout & Package
AD1674AR is housed in a 28-lead plastic SOIC (R-28) package with standard industry pinout compatible with AD574A/AD674A. Pin functions are electrically and mechanically validated per Analog Devices' official pin description table.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VLOGIC (Pin 1) | Logic Power Supply | +5 V supply for internal digital logic and output buffers; decoupling required near pin. |
| 12/8 (Pin 2) | Digital Format Control | LOW selects two 8-bit read cycles; HIGH enables single 12-bit parallel output. |
| CS (Pin 3) | Chip Select Input | Active LOW; enables device decoding in multi-peripheral bus systems. |
| A0 (Pin 4) | Byte Address / Cycle Length | LOW initiates 12-bit conversion; HIGH triggers 8-bit cycle; during read, selects MSB or LSB nybble. |
| R/C (Pin 5) | Read/Convert Control | LOW = start conversion; HIGH = enable data read; edge-triggered in stand-alone mode. |
| CE (Pin 6) | Chip Enable Input | Active HIGH; initiates convert or read when CS is LOW; synchronizes internal control logic. |
| VCC (Pin 7) | Positive Analog Supply | +12 V or +15 V analog rail; powers SHA, reference, and comparator; requires local filtering. |
| REF OUT (Pin 8) | Analog Reference Output | +10 V buffered reference (2 mA drive); connects to REF IN via 50 Ω for calibration or BIP OFF for bipolar offset. |
| AGND (Pin 9) | Analog Ground | Reference return for analog inputs, reference, and SHA; must be separated from DGND at single point. |
| REF IN (Pin 10) | Reference Input | Accepts 50 Ω-terminated REF OUT for internal reference use; open or grounded for external reference. |
| VEE (Pin 11) | Negative Analog Supply | –12 V or –15 V rail; powers analog front-end; critical for bipolar input range integrity. |
| BIP OFF (Pin 12) | Bipolar Offset Calibration | Connect to REF OUT via 50 Ω for ±5 V/±10 V modes; tie to AGND for unipolar operation. |
| 10 VIN (Pin 13) | 10 V Span Analog Input | Accepts 0–10 V (unipolar) or ±5 V (bipolar); unused in 20 V span mode. |
| 20 VIN (Pin 14) | 20 V Span Analog Input | Accepts 0–20 V (unipolar) or ±10 V (bipolar); unused in 10 V span mode. |
| DGND (Pin 15) | Digital Ground | Return for logic outputs and VLOGIC; isolated from AGND to prevent digital noise coupling. |
| DB0–DB3 (Pins 16–19) | Data Output (LSB Nybble) | Lower 4 bits of 12-bit result; enabled during read when A0=HIGH and 12/8=LOW. |
| DB4–DB7 (Pins 20–23) | Data Output (Mid Nybble) | Middle 4 bits; always active in 12-bit mode; zero-padded in 8-bit LSB read mode. |
| DB8–DB11 (Pins 24–27) | Data Output (MSB Nybble) | Upper 4 bits; enabled when A0=LOW in 8-bit mode or always in 12-bit mode. |
| STS (Pin 28) | Status Output | Active HIGH during conversion; goes LOW 0.6–1.2 µs after data valid-used for handshaking or interrupt generation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD1674BR | Same package and pinout; ±1/2 LSB INL (vs. ±1 LSB) and 70 dB S/(N+D) (vs. 69 dB). | Preferred where higher DC accuracy and marginally better AC performance are required in same industrial temp range. | Select AD1674BR if system-level linearity budget demands <0.5 LSB error or THD must exceed –90 dB consistently. |
| AD7892BR-1 | 12-bit, 100 kSPS SAR ADC in 28-lead SOIC; no internal reference or SHA; requires external REF and external sample control. | Used where board space allows discrete reference/SHA and design flexibility outweighs integration benefit. | Choose AD7892BR-1 only if external component selection is preferred for cost optimization or custom reference voltage requirements. |
Compared with AD1674BR, the AD1674AR trades 0.5 LSB INL and 1 dB S/(N+D) for lower unit cost while retaining identical timing, interface, and thermal specs; versus AD7892BR-1, it delivers full signal-chain integration (SHA + REF) at the expense of slightly higher BOM count in reference-flexible designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the AD1674AR?
The AD1674AR achieves a maximum sampling rate of 100 kSPS with guaranteed 12-bit accuracy. Its 10 µs conversion time for full 12-bit cycles and deterministic timing (including STS flag assertion and data validity windows) make it suitable for real-time acquisition in closed-loop control and waveform capture applications. This rate is maintained across its full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and all supported input ranges.
Does the AD1674AR require external calibration for ±10 V bipolar operation?
No, the AD1674AR does not require external calibration for ±10 V bipolar operation. Its factory-laser-trimmed resistor network and internal 10 V reference provide calibrated operation across all four input ranges-including ±10 V-when BIP OFF is connected to REF OUT via a 50 Ω resistor. The datasheet specifies unipolar and bipolar offset errors (±2 LSB and ±6 LSB, respectively) at +25°C, with defined temperature drift, eliminating need for field calibration in most industrial deployments.
How does the AD1674AR handle 8-bit versus 12-bit data reads?
The AD1674AR supports both 8-bit and 12-bit data reads via the 12/8 and A0 control pins. When 12/8 is HIGH, DB0–DB11 output a single 12-bit word. When 12/8 is LOW, two 8-bit reads are required: A0 LOW enables DB4–DB11 (upper byte), and A0 HIGH enables DB0–DB3 (lower byte, padded with four trailing zeros). This dual-mode interface allows seamless integration with 8-bit microcontrollers without external latches or bus transceivers.
Can the AD1674AR operate with ±12 V analog supplies instead of ±15 V?
Yes, the AD1674AR is fully specified to operate with either ±12 V or ±15 V analog supplies (VCC and VEE). Its absolute maximum ratings allow VCC up to +16.5 V and VEE down to –16.5 V, and DC/AC specifications-including INL, S/(N+D), and full-scale error-are guaranteed over the full operating range of +11.4 V to +16.5 V (VCC) and –16.5 V to –11.4 V (VEE). Using ±12 V simplifies power supply design while maintaining full performance.
What is the purpose of the STS pin on the AD1674AR?
STS (Status) is an active-HIGH open-drain output that signals conversion progress: it goes HIGH at conversion start and returns LOW 0.6–1.2 µs after data becomes valid on DB0–DB11. This precise timing enables hardware handshaking-e.g., triggering an interrupt or enabling a latch-without polling. Its guaranteed delay and setup/hold margins ensure reliable synchronization with microprocessor read cycles in both full-control and stand-alone modes.
