Product details
Overview
AD574ASD/883B from Analog Devices is a military-grade 12-bit monolithic successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with on-chip reference, internal clock, and three-state parallel data outputs. It delivers ±1 LSB linearity error over –55°C to +125°C, supports ±5 V/±10 V bipolar and 0–10 V/0–20 V unipolar input ranges, and achieves ≤35 µs full-scale conversion time. It is used in high-reliability avionics data acquisition systems requiring guaranteed performance under extreme temperature cycling.
For engineers reviewing the AD574ASD/883B datasheet, AD574ASD/883B pinout, AD574ASD/883B application, or AD574ASD/883B equivalent, this page provides verified military-specification parameters, MIL-STD-883B screened package details, absolute maximum ratings, calibrated offset and full-scale error behavior, and direct interface guidance for microprocessor bus timing and sample-and-hold integration.
Technical Context
The AD574ASD/883B implements a fully self-contained successive-approximation architecture with an internal 12-bit current-output DAC, comparator, SAR logic, and temperature-compensated buried Zener reference (10.00 V ±0.2%). Its conversion cycle is initiated by CE/CS/R/C control signals and produces left-justified 12-bit parallel output via DB11–DB0 with STS status flag.
It operates from ±12 V or ±15 V analog supplies and +5 V digital supply, supports both 12-bit and 8-bit conversion modes via AO pin, and offers selectable 12-bit word or dual 8-bit byte output format via the hard-wired 12/8 pin. Input impedance is 5 kΩ (10 V span) or 10 kΩ (20 V span), and reference output supplies up to 1.5 mA for external buffering.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (D-28), hermetically sealed, lead finish SnPb, compliant with MIL-STD-883B screening requirements for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 15 | Digital Common (DC) | Reference ground for logic inputs (CE, CS, R/C, A0, 12/8) and DBx outputs; must be tied to system digital ground |
| 9 | Analog Common (AC) | High-fidelity reference ground for internal reference, comparator, and analog inputs; separate from DC to minimize noise coupling |
| 8, 10 | REF IN / REF OUT | Reference input accepts external 10 V source; REF OUT provides buffered 10 V reference for external circuitry |
| 12 | BIP OFF | Bipolar offset adjustment node - connected to AC for unipolar mode, to REF OUT for bipolar mode |
| 13, 14 | 10VIN / 20VIN | Dedicated analog input pins - 10VIN used with 5 kΩ internal resistor for 0–10 V/±5 V; 20VIN used with 10 kΩ for 0–20 V/±10 V |
| 2–7, 16–19, 21–24, 26–27 | DB11–DB0 | Three-state parallel data outputs - MSB (DB11) to LSB (DB0); enabled only after conversion completes and CE/CS/R/C configured for read |
| 28 | STS | Status flag - high during conversion, low when result ready; used for handshaking with host processor |
| 20 | R/C | Read/Convert control - low = initiate conversion, high = enable data output buffers |
| 11 | A0 | Byte address select - low = output MSB nibble (DB11–DB8), high = output LSB nibble (DB3–DB0) in 8-bit mode |
| 25 | 12/8 | Data format select - tied to VLOGIC = 12-bit parallel word; tied to DC = two 8-bit bytes (MSB first) |
| 3, 4 | CE / CS | Chip enable and chip select - both must be active (CE=0, CS=0) for operation; CE preferred for faster timing |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD574ATD/883B | Guarantees ±1 LSB linearity and no missing codes to 12 bits over –55°C to +125°C; tighter full-scale tempco (25 ppm/°C vs. 50 ppm/°C) | Suitable for closed-loop control requiring guaranteed monotonicity at temperature extremes | Select AD574ATD/883B when 12-bit no-missing-codes guarantee is mandatory across full military temperature range |
| AD1674SD/883B | Integrates sample-and-hold amplifier on die; 10 µs total throughput vs. 35 µs; requires external reference | Reduces board area and component count in high-speed acquisition where SHA integration is preferred | Choose AD1674SD/883B when system-level speed >20 kHz sampling and layout simplicity outweigh need for internal reference |
Compared with AD574ASD/883B, AD574ATD/883B improves differential linearity assurance while AD1674SD/883B trades internal reference and programmable input ranges for integrated sampling and faster throughput-selection depends on whether reference autonomy or acquisition speed dominates the design priority.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed linearity error specification for AD574ASD/883B over its full operating temperature range?
The AD574ASD/883B guarantees ±1 LSB linearity error from –55°C to +125°C, as confirmed in the MIL-STD-883B screened ordering guide and electrical specifications table. This applies to both unipolar and bipolar input configurations and is measured using the standard "zero-to-full-scale" straight-line method defined in the AD574A datasheet Rev. B. The AD574ASD/883B does not guarantee no missing codes to 12 bits; that requirement is met by the AD574ATD/883B variant instead.
Does AD574ASD/883B include an internal voltage reference, and what is its accuracy and drive capability?
Yes, the AD574ASD/883B integrates a temperature-compensated buried Zener reference trimmed to 10.00 V ±0.2% (±20 mV). It supplies up to 1.5 mA to external loads, sufficient to drive a unity-gain buffer op amp such as the AD707 or AD820. However, the reference must remain electrically constant during conversion; any varying load will introduce gain error. For ±12 V supply operation or full-temperature-range loading, Analog Devices recommends buffering the REF OUT pin.
How is the AD574ASD/883B interfaced to an 8-bit microprocessor bus, and what role does the 12/8 pin play?
The AD574ASD/883B interfaces to an 8-bit bus using its dual-byte output mode: the 12/8 pin is hard-wired to Digital Common (Pin 15), causing DB11–DB0 to appear as two consecutive 8-bit words-first the 8 MSBs (DB11–DB4), then the 4 LSBs followed by four trailing zeros (DB3–DB0, 0, 0, 0, 0). The A0 pin selects which byte is enabled. Because 12/8 is not TTL-compatible, it must be statically tied-never driven dynamically-to avoid timing violations or bus contention.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for power supply voltages on AD574ASD/883B, and how do they differ from recommended operating conditions?
The AD574ASD/883B absolute maximum ratings are VCC = +16.5 V, VEE = –16.5 V, and VLOGIC = +7 V. However, the recommended operating ranges are narrower: VCC = +11.4 V to +16.5 V, VEE = –11.4 V to –16.5 V, and VLOGIC = +4.5 V to +5.5 V. Exceeding recommended conditions-even within absolute max-degrades linearity, increases power dissipation beyond 725 mW, and risks violating the ±1 LSB spec. Operation at ±12 V supplies is valid but requires external reference buffering per datasheet Note 3.
Can AD574ASD/883B operate with a sample-and-hold amplifier, and which device does Analog Devices recommend?
Yes, the AD574ASD/883B is explicitly designed to interface with external sample-and-hold amplifiers (SHAs) for signals above ~1.5 Hz. Analog Devices recommends the AD585 SHA due to its low aperture jitter (<10 ps), fast acquisition time (<1 µs), and ability to drive the AD574ASD/883B's dynamically varying input impedance without droop. When paired with the AD585, the effective bandwidth increases to 26 kHz while maintaining 12-bit accuracy-critical for radar IF digitization and high-speed telemetry.
