Product details
Overview
AD678TD/883B from Analog Devices is a military-grade, 12-bit, 200 kSPS monolithic sampling analog-to-digital converter with integrated sample-hold amplifier, on-chip 5 V reference, clock generation, and dual-mode (8-bit/12-bit) parallel bus interface. It delivers 72 dB S/N+D, 1 MHz full-power bandwidth, and ±1 LSB integral nonlinearity over –55°C to +125°C, enabling precision data acquisition in avionics and ruggedized instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD678TD/883B datasheet, AD678TD/883B pinout, AD678TD/883B application, or AD678TD/883B equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, MIL-STD-883B-compliant package mapping, validated timing parameters (tC = 3.0–4.4 µs, tCR = 5 µs), bipolar/unipolar mode behavior, and real-world calibration guidance for high-reliability embedded systems.
Technical Context
The AD678TD/883B implements a recursive subranging architecture combining flash converter stages with error correction logic to achieve 12-bit resolution at 200 kSPS. Its sample-hold amplifier features 10 MΩ input impedance, 1 µs settling time, and 150 ps aperture jitter-enabling direct connection to high-impedance sensors without buffering.
It supports two digital interface modes: 12-bit parallel output (DB11–DB0) via single read cycle, or 8-bit multiplexed output (DB11–DB4 only) with R/L and HBE control for right/left justification. Bipolar mode uses twos complement coding with BIPOFF tied to REFOUT; unipolar mode uses straight binary with BIPOFF grounded.
Key Specifications

| Sampling Rate | 200 kSPS - enables real-time capture of signals up to 100 kHz Nyquist frequency |
| S/N+D Ratio | 72 dB (K/B/T grades) - ensures ≥11.6 effective bits for low-noise signal processing |
| Full-Power Bandwidth | 1 MHz - supports accurate digitization of fast transients without amplitude loss |

Pinout & Package
AD678TD/883B is supplied in a 28-lead ceramic DIP (package option D-28), screened to MIL-STD-883B Class B, with hermetic sealing and temperature cycling validation for aerospace deployment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN | Analog Input | High-impedance (10 MΩ) node accepting ±5 V or 0–10 V signals directly |
| BIPOFF | Bipolar Offset Control | Configures coding mode: grounded → unipolar/straight binary; tied to REFOUT → bipolar/twos complement |
| CS, SC, OE, EOCEN, SYNC | Digital Control Inputs | Enable synchronous/asynchronous conversion control, output gating, and status signaling |
| DB11–DB0 | Data Outputs | Three-state TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs supporting 12-bit parallel or 8-bit multiplexed bus interfacing |
| VCC, VEE, VDD | Power Supplies | +12 V (analog), –12 V (analog), +5 V (digital) - decoupling critical for noise immunity |
| AGND, DGND | Ground Returns | Separate analog/digital grounds minimize coupling; AGND carries only 200 µA code-independent current |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-resolution, high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD679TD/883B | 14-bit resolution, 128 kSPS, identical D-28 pinout but slower throughput and higher power (850 mW) | Used where DC accuracy > dynamic performance (e.g., precision thermocouple digitization) | Select AD679TD/883B only when 14-bit resolution is mandatory and 200 kSPS is not required. |
| ADS8505IPFBT | 16-bit, 250 kSPS, SPI interface, single +5 V supply, no internal reference - requires external REF5025 and clock | Preferred for new designs needing higher resolution and lower power (125 mW), but adds BOM complexity | Choose ADS8505IPFBT for greenfield designs prioritizing resolution and integration density over legacy bus compatibility. |
Compared with AD678TD/883B, AD679TD/883B trades speed for resolution and shares footprint for drop-in upgrades, while ADS8505IPFBT offers superior specs but demands redesign for serial interface and external support circuitry-making AD678TD/883B optimal for MIL-DTL-38534-compliant retrofits.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD678TD/883B?
The AD678TD/883B supports a maximum sampling rate of 200 kSPS, with a minimum conversion interval (tCR) of 5 µs. This rate is guaranteed across its full military temperature range (–55°C to +125°C) and is enforced by internal timing logic that prevents SC pulses closer than 5 µs-ensuring consistent 12-bit accuracy without degradation.
How does the AD678TD/883B handle bipolar versus unipolar input configurations?
The AD678TD/883B selects input mode via the BIPOFF pin: grounding BIPOFF configures unipolar 0–10 V input with straight binary output; connecting BIPOFF to REFOUT through a 50 Ω resistor enables ±5 V bipolar input with twos complement output. The internal reference and gain stage are auto-configured-no register writes or external component changes are needed beyond the BIPOFF connection.
Is the AD678TD/883B pin-compatible with any other Analog Devices ADCs?
Yes-the AD678TD/883B shares the identical 28-lead ceramic DIP (D-28) pinout with the AD679 series, including AD679TD/883B. This allows direct PCB-level replacement where 12-bit resolution and 200 kSPS throughput meet system requirements, though AD679 variants offer 14-bit resolution at reduced speed (128 kSPS) and higher power consumption.
What decoupling is required for stable operation of the AD678TD/883B?
Each power supply pin (VCC, VEE, VDD) requires local decoupling: a 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor, placed within 5 mm of the pin and connected directly to AGND (for VCC/VEE) or DGND (for VDD). This configuration suppresses high-frequency noise and prevents supply-induced INL errors exceeding ±2 LSB, as specified in the power supply rejection test conditions.
Does the AD678TD/883B require external calibration for MIL-STD-883B compliance?
No-AD678TD/883B is factory laser-trimmed and fully tested per MIL-STD-883B Class B, with guaranteed DC specifications including ±0.7 LSB INL, ±3 LSB gain error, and ±3 LSB zero error across –55°C to +125°C. External trimming resistors (R1/R2) are optional and only needed if application-specific accuracy tighter than these limits is required.
