Product details
Overview
AD679SJ/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 (K/B/T grades), 1 MHz full-power bandwidth, and 10 MΩ input impedance, enabling direct connection to unbuffered sources in precision data acquisition systems for military-grade instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD679SJ/883B datasheet, AD679SJ/883B pinout, AD679SJ/883B application, or AD679SJ/883B equivalent, key selection considerations include MIL-STD-883B compliance, bipolar/unipolar mode support via BIPOFF pin, two-read 14-bit output timing, ±12 V / +5 V supply operation, and compatibility with AD678-based legacy designs requiring upgrade to 14-bit resolution.
Technical Context
The AD679SJ/883B implements a recursive subranging architecture with flash converter circuitry and error correction to achieve 14-bit accuracy at 128 kSPS. Its sample-and-hold amplifier supports 1.5 µs input settling time and 150 ps aperture jitter, enabling undersampling of signals beyond Nyquist while maintaining linearity.
It operates in synchronous or asynchronous mode via SYNC pin configuration, with EOC signaling conversion status and HBE-controlled high/low byte read sequencing. The device uses BiMOS process technology-combining CMOS logic and bipolar analog circuits-with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors for stable dc performance across –55°C to +125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 14-bit - provides 16,384 discrete levels for high-precision measurement of analog signals up to 10 V full-scale. |
| Sampling Rate | 128 kSPS - enables real-time capture of signals with bandwidth up to 500 kHz linear range without aliasing degradation. |
| S/N+D Ratio | 78 dB (typ) at –0.5 dB input - ensures >12.6 effective bits for dynamic signal fidelity in radar and communications receivers. |
| Input Range | ±5 V bipolar or 0–10 V unipolar - selectable via BIPOFF pin connection, supporting both signed and unsigned sensor or control loop outputs. |
| Full-Power Bandwidth | 1 MHz - allows accurate digitization of fast transients and pulse waveforms without slew-induced distortion. |
| Supply Voltages | +12 V (VCC), –12 V (VEE), +5 V (VDD) - dual analog rails enable true bipolar input handling; digital rail powers TTL/CMOS-compatible interface. |
| Power Dissipation | 560 mW (typ) - manageable thermal load in sealed military enclosures with passive heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
AD679SJ/883B is supplied in a 28-lead ceramic DIP package (D-28), screened per MIL-STD-883B, with pins arranged for analog/digital ground separation and low-noise layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN (Pin 6) | Analog Input | High-impedance (10 MΩ) node accepting ±5 V or 0–10 V signals directly-no external buffer required for low-source-impedance sensors. |
| BIPOFF (Pin 10) | Mode Select | Connect to AGND for unipolar mode (straight binary); connect to REFOUT for bipolar mode (twos complement)-configures coding and input range. |
| REFOUT (Pin 8) | Reference Output | 5 V ±20 mV precision reference source; supplies internal DAC and external calibration circuitry; requires 10 µF tantalum decoupling. |
| SC (Pin 3) | Start Convert | Active-low edge-triggered command initiating conversion; must be pulsed ≤3 µs wide to avoid accuracy degradation. |
| EOC (Pin 27) | End-of-Convert | Open-drain (asynchronous) or 3-state (synchronous) status flag-goes HIGH when conversion completes and data is ready to read. |
| HBE (Pin 15) | High Byte Enable | Controls DB7–DB0 output content: LOW = high byte (bits 13–6); HIGH = low byte (bits 5–0) - enables 8-bit bus access to full 14-bit result. |
| AGND (Pin 7) | Analog Ground | Dedicated return path for AIN only-must be isolated from DGND to prevent digital noise coupling into analog signal path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Complete integration | On-chip SHA, reference, clock, and 8-bit interface eliminate ≥12 external components-reduces board area and calibration complexity in SWaP-constrained systems. |
| MIL-STD-883B compliance | Screened for mechanical shock, temperature cycling, and hermeticity-qualified for flight-critical avionics and ground-based radar subsystems. |
| Factory laser trimming | Eliminates need for user calibration; guarantees INL ≤2.5 LSB and gain error ≤0.11% FSR over –55°C to +125°C without external trims. |
| Two-read 14-bit interface | Left-justified output (8 + 6 bits) compatible with standard 8-bit microprocessor buses-avoids costly 16-bit data paths in legacy embedded controllers. |
| Pin compatibility with AD678 | Direct drop-in replacement for 12-bit AD678 in existing layouts-enables resolution upgrade without PCB redesign or firmware changes. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD679TD | MIL-STD-883B not specified; commercial-grade screening; same D-28 package and pinout. | Qualified for industrial, not aerospace/military use; lacks radiation hardness and extended reliability testing. | Select AD679TD only for non-safety-critical ground test equipment where cost is prioritized over qualification rigor. |
| AD7792BRUZ | 24-bit Σ-Δ architecture; 4.17–470 SPS max rate; integrated PGA and reference; no internal SHA. | Optimized for low-noise dc measurements (e.g., strain gauges), not high-speed ac signal capture. | Choose AD7792BRUZ for precision weigh scales or medical sensors-not for radar or EW where 128 kSPS and 1 MHz bandwidth are mandatory. |
Compared with AD679TD and AD7792BRUZ, the AD679SJ/883B uniquely combines MIL-qualified reliability, 14-bit SAR speed, and integrated SHA/reference-making it irreplaceable in airborne radar digitizers where all three attributes are simultaneously required.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the AD679SJ/883B?
The AD679SJ/883B is rated for operation from –55°C to +125°C, meeting MIL-STD-883B Class S requirements. This extended range is validated through temperature cycling, burn-in, and parametric testing per Method 5005, ensuring reliable performance in jet engine bays, missile guidance sections, and space-qualified payloads where ambient extremes exceed commercial grade limits.
Does the AD679SJ/883B require external calibration components?
The AD679SJ/883B is factory laser-trimmed for offset, gain, and linearity-no external calibration is needed to meet datasheet specifications. Optional 50 Ω trim pots may be added for fine-tuning in unipolar or bipolar modes, but the AD679SJ/883B achieves ≤2.5 LSB INL and ≤0.11% FSR gain error out-of-box across its full temperature range.
How is the 14-bit result read from the AD679SJ/883B?
The AD679SJ/883B outputs its 14-bit result in two 8-bit reads: first the high byte (bits 13–6) when HBE is LOW, then the low byte (bits 5–0) when HBE is HIGH. Data is left-justified in the 16-bit word, with straight binary coding in unipolar mode and twos complement in bipolar mode-enabling seamless interface to 8-bit microcontrollers without data alignment overhead.
Is the AD679SJ/883B pin-compatible with the AD678?
Yes-the AD679SJ/883B maintains identical pinout, package footprint, and electrical interface with the AD678 12-bit ADC. This allows direct replacement in legacy designs to upgrade resolution from 12 to 14 bits without PCB modification, provided system firmware accommodates the longer conversion time (6.3 µs vs. AD678's ~5 µs) and two-read data protocol.
What power supply configuration does the AD679SJ/883B require?
The AD679SJ/883B requires three independent supplies: +12 V (VCC), –12 V (VEE), and +5 V (VDD). VCC and VEE power the analog section-including the SHA and reference-while VDD powers the digital interface. Decoupling is critical: 10 µF tantalum on REFIN and 0.1 µF ceramics on each supply pin near the package are mandatory to maintain 78 dB S/N+D performance.
