Product details
Overview
AD679SD/883B from Analog Devices is a 14-bit, 128 kSPS monolithic sampling ADC with integrated sample-and-hold amplifier, on-chip 5 V reference, clock generator, and 8-bit bus interface. It delivers 78 dB S/N+D (typ), 1 MHz full-power bandwidth, and 10 MΩ input impedance, enabling direct connection to unbuffered sources in precision test instrumentation and military-grade data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD679SD/883B datasheet, AD679SD/883B pinout, AD679SD/883B application, or AD679SD/883B equivalent, key selection considerations include MIL-STD-883B screening compliance, –55°C to +125°C operating range, bipolar/unipolar mode support, two-read 14-bit output timing, and BiMOS process reliability for high-accuracy analog-to-digital conversion under extreme environmental stress.
Technical Context
The AD679SD/883B implements a recursive subranging architecture with flash converter circuitry and error correction to achieve 14-bit resolution at 128 kSPS. Its sample-and-hold amplifier provides 1.5 µs input settling time and 150 ps aperture jitter, supporting undersampling of signals beyond Nyquist frequency while maintaining linearity.
It operates from ±12 V analog supplies and +5 V digital supply, dissipating 560 mW (typ). The device supports synchronous and asynchronous conversion control via SYNC, CS, SC, and EOCEN pins, with three-state DB7–DB0 outputs and left-justified 8+6 bit read sequencing controlled by HBE.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 14-bit - guarantees 1 LSB = 0.61 mV for 10 V full-scale range, enabling precise measurement of sub-millivolt signal changes. |
| Sampling Rate | 128 kSPS - supports real-time capture of signals up to 500 kHz linear bandwidth without aliasing-induced distortion. |
| S/N+D Ratio | 78 dB (typ) at –0.5 dB input - ensures >78 dB dynamic range for clean digitization of low-amplitude signals in noisy environments. |
| Input Range | ±5 V bipolar or 0–10 V unipolar - configurable via BIPOFF pin, eliminating external level-shifting circuitry in mixed-signal systems. |
| Input Impedance | 10 MΩ - allows direct interfacing with high-impedance sensors or multiplexers without loading or gain error. |
| Reference Output | 4.98–5.02 V - laser-trimmed internal voltage reference enables stable full-scale calibration without external components. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified per MIL-STD-883B, suitable for aerospace, defense, and downhole industrial applications. |
Pinout & Package
AD679SD/883B is supplied in a 28-lead ceramic DIP package (D-28), screened to MIL-STD-883B requirements. Pin assignments are identical to standard AD679SD, with all unused pins tied to DGND or VDD as specified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN | Analog Input | High-impedance (10 MΩ) node accepting ±5 V or 0–10 V signals directly; no external buffer required. |
| BIPOFF | Mode Configuration | Tie to AGND for unipolar mode (straight binary); tie to REFOUT for bipolar mode (twos complement). |
| REFOUT | Analog Output | 5 V reference output (4.98–5.02 V) used for biasing BIPOFF and external circuitry; load-limited to 1.5 mA (unipolar). |
| SC | Digital Input | Active-low start-convert trigger; must be pulsed (not held low) to avoid accuracy degradation. |
| EOC | Digital Output | Open-drain in asynchronous mode (requires 3 kΩ pull-up); three-state in synchronous mode; indicates conversion completion. |
| HBE | Digital Input | Selects high-byte (LOW) or low-byte (HIGH) output on DB7–DB0 during two-read 14-bit data access. |
| DGND / AGND | Power Ground | Separate digital and analog ground pins prevent noise coupling between logic switching and analog signal paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Complete integration | On-chip SHA, reference, clock, and bus interface eliminate 5+ external components versus discrete ADC designs. |
| MIL-STD-883B compliance | Screened for mechanical shock, temperature cycling, and hermeticity-certified for mission-critical defense platforms. |
| Factory laser trimming | Eliminates need for user calibration; achieves ≤2.5 LSB INL and ≤0.12% FSR gain error over full temperature range. |
| Bipolar/unipolar dual-mode operation | Single hardware configuration supports both signed and unsigned data formats via BIPOFF pin routing. |
| BiMOS process technology | Combines CMOS logic density with bipolar precision-ensures long-term stability and low thermal drift vs. hybrid alternatives. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-resolution sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD678SD/883B | 12-bit resolution, 200 kSPS, same 28-pin DIP footprint and pinout. | Lower resolution but higher speed; suited for applications prioritizing throughput over dynamic range. | Choose when system SNR budget permits <70 dB and sampling rate >150 kSPS is required. |
| ADS8505IPFB | 16-bit, 250 kSPS, SPI interface, single +5 V supply, no internal reference. | Higher resolution and speed but requires external reference, clock, and level-shifting; not MIL-qualified. | Choose for commercial industrial systems needing enhanced resolution without military screening. |
Compared with AD679SD/883B, AD678SD/883B trades 2 bits of resolution for 56% higher sampling rate in identical packaging, while ADS8505IPFB offers 2 extra bits and faster throughput but lacks integrated reference, clock, and MIL-STD-883B assurance-requiring additional design validation for harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the AD679SD/883B?
The AD679SD/883B is rated for –55°C to +125°C operation and is screened per MIL-STD-883B, including temperature cycling and hermeticity tests. This range is validated for continuous operation in aerospace, defense, and oilfield applications where thermal extremes are routine. The AD679SD/883B maintains specified DC accuracy and AC performance across this full span without derating.
Does the AD679SD/883B require external calibration components?
No-AD679SD/883B is factory laser-trimmed for offset, gain, and linearity, eliminating mandatory external trims. In unipolar mode, only a single 50 Ω 1% resistor is needed; bipolar mode adds one more trim resistor. For non-critical AC applications, even these may be omitted. The AD679SD/883B achieves ≤2.5 LSB INL and ≤0.12% FSR gain error without user intervention.
How does the AD679SD/883B handle bipolar versus unipolar input ranges?
The AD679SD/883B selects input mode via the BIPOFF pin: tie to AGND for 0–10 V unipolar input with straight binary coding; tie to REFOUT for ±5 V bipolar input with twos complement coding. Internal circuitry scales the reference accordingly, and the 14-bit result remains left-justified across both modes. The AD679SD/883B supports seamless reconfiguration without changing external hardware.
What power supplies does the AD679SD/883B require?
The AD679SD/883B requires three independent supplies: +12 V (VCC), –12 V (VEE), and +5 V (VDD). Typical current draw is 18 mA (ICC), 25 mA (IEE), and 8 mA (IDD), totaling ~560 mW. Power supply rejection is specified at 6 LSB for ±5% variation on each rail. The AD679SD/883B is not designed for 15 V operation-exceeding ±12 V risks permanent damage per absolute maximum ratings.
Is the AD679SD/883B pin-compatible with other members of the AD67x family?
Yes-the AD679SD/883B shares identical pinout and footprint with AD678SD/883B (12-bit, 200 kSPS), enabling drop-in upgrades in existing 28-lead ceramic DIP layouts. All control, data, reference, and power pins align exactly. However, timing parameters differ: AD679SD/883B has longer conversion time (6.3 µs vs. ~5 µs) and different EOC behavior in asynchronous mode, requiring firmware review before substitution.
