Product details
Overview
AD7384-4BCPZ from Analog Devices is a 14-bit, quad-channel, simultaneous-sampling SAR ADC with pseudo-differential inputs, 4 MSPS throughput, 83.5 dB typical SNR (VREF = 3.3 V), and integrated oversampling for up to 2-bit resolution boost - used in motor current sensing and high-speed data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7384-4BCPZ datasheet, AD7384-4BCPZ pinout, AD7384-4BCPZ application, or AD7384-4BCPZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4 MSPS quad sampling rate, −40°C to +125°C operation, LFCSP-24 package, 2.5 V internal reference (or external up to 3.3 V), and ALERT output for out-of-range detection.
Technical Context
The AD7384-4BCPZ implements four independent successive approximation register (SAR) cores with shared control logic and a unified serial interface. Each channel uses a pseudo-differential input structure referenced to VREF/2, enabling robust common-mode rejection (−76 dB at 500 kHz) and low amplifier drive burden via 18 pF track-mode input capacitance.
It supports dual-mode serial communication: 4-wire SPI (SDOA–SDOD) for full-throughput concurrent readout, or 1-wire mode for reduced pin count; logic supply (VLOGIC) is independently configurable from 1.65 V to 3.6 V, ensuring compatibility with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V digital systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 14-bit native; supports 2-bit resolution boost via oversampling (OSR = 8×), yielding effective 16-bit dynamic range at reduced bandwidth. |
| Throughput Rate | 4 MSPS per channel, simultaneous sampling across all four channels - enables synchronized capture of multi-axis motor currents or phase signals. |
| SNR | 83.5 dB typical (VREF = 3.3 V, fIN = 1 kHz); improves to 91.3 dB with OSR = 8× - critical for high-fidelity signal reconstruction in EDFA and IQ demodulation. |
| INL Error | ±0.35 LSB max (external 3.3 V reference) - ensures linearity-critical applications like closed-loop motor position feedback meet tight error budgets. |
| Channel Isolation | −110 dB - prevents crosstalk between simultaneously sampled channels in multi-sensor systems. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial drives, and harsh-environment embedded control. |
| Reference Options | Internal 2.5 V ±10 ppm/°C bandgap reference or external 2.5 V–3.3 V source - allows system-level reference sharing or precision calibration. |
Pinout & Package
AD7384-4BCPZ is housed in a 24-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP (CP-24-251) with exposed pad (EPAD) requiring connection to GND for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1,5,14,16) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve noise immunity across analog and digital domains. |
| VLOGIC (Pin 2) | Logic interface supply | Independent 1.65 V–3.6 V supply enables seamless interfacing with mixed-voltage microcontrollers and FPGAs. |
| REGCAP (Pin 3) | Internal regulator decoupling | 1 µF capacitor stabilizes 1.9 V internal rail for logic circuitry - essential for timing stability and low-noise operation. |
| VCC (Pin 4) | Analog power supply | 3.0 V–3.6 V supply powers SAR core and analog front-end; requires local 1 µF decoupling to suppress switching noise. |
| AINA± to AIND± (Pins 6–13) | Pseudo-differential analog inputs | Four matched pairs (A–D), each with AINx− tied to VREF/2; accepts 0 V to VREF on AINx+ - simplifies sensor interface without differential amplifiers. |
| REFCAP (Pin 15) | Bandgap reference decoupling | 0.1 µF capacitor ensures low-noise 2.5 V reference stability - critical for DC accuracy and INL performance. |
| REFIO (Pin 17) | Reference I/O | Configurable as 2.5 V reference output or 2.5 V–3.3 V external reference input - enables flexible system-level reference architecture. |
| CS (Pin 18) | Chip select / conversion trigger | Active-low signal initiates simultaneous sampling on falling edge - provides deterministic timing for time-critical control loops. |
| SDOA–SDOC (Pins 19–23) | Serial data outputs | Four dedicated SDO lines enable parallel readout of all channels in one SPI frame - eliminates inter-channel latency skew. |
| SDOD/ALERT (Pin 24) | Multi-function terminal | Configurable as fourth data output or active-low ALERT flag signaling threshold violation - supports real-time fault detection without host polling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad simultaneous sampling | Four independent SAR cores sample and convert concurrently on single CS edge - preserves phase relationships for vector control and IQ demodulation. |
| Oversampling block | Programmable OSR up to 8× reduces noise floor by ~6 dB per doubling, enabling higher effective resolution without external filtering or post-processing. |
| Pseudo-differential input architecture | Each channel uses AINx− as common-mode reference (typically VREF/2), relaxing PCB layout constraints and eliminating need for matched external diff-amps. |
| Out-of-range ALERT output | Dedicated hardware comparator monitors conversion results against programmable thresholds - triggers immediate interrupt for overcurrent or overvoltage protection. |
| Temperature-rated operation | Specified performance maintained from −40°C to +125°C - validated for use in industrial inverters, traction drives, and aerospace telemetry systems. |
Applications
| Motor Control Current Sense | Data Acquisition Systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7383-4BCPZ | 16-bit resolution, 86.7 dB SNR (typ), higher INL (±3.8 LSB), same package and pinout | Better DC precision for position feedback; lower noise floor for low-frequency sensing | Select when absolute linearity and 16-bit fidelity outweigh throughput efficiency. |
| AD7381-4BCPZ | 14-bit, 2 MSPS (half throughput), no oversampling block, identical pinout and interface | Lower power (120 mW vs. 186.6 mW), suitable for battery-powered DAQ where 4 MSPS is unnecessary | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth systems where oversampling and full 4 MSPS are not required. |
Compared with AD7383-4BCPZ, the AD7384-4BCPZ trades 2 bits of resolution for improved speed/power efficiency and superior oversampling flexibility; versus AD7381-4BCPZ, it doubles throughput and adds resolution boost - making it optimal for real-time motor control and broadband signal analysis.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7384-4BCPZ?
The AD7384-4BCPZ supports a maximum throughput rate of 4 MSPS per channel with simultaneous sampling across all four channels. This rate is achievable using the 4-wire SPI interface with SCLK period ≤12.5 ns. The device maintains specified AC performance (e.g., 83.5 dB SNR) at this full rate when powered from 3.3 V and using a 3.3 V reference.
Does the AD7384-4BCPZ include an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the AD7384-4BCPZ integrates a buffered 2.5 V bandgap reference with 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 7 µV RMS noise. It is accessible via the REFIO pin and requires a 1 µF decoupling capacitor on REFCAP. The internal reference can be disabled in favor of an external 2.5 V–3.3 V source by setting the REFSEL bit in CONFIGURATION1 register.
How does the oversampling feature improve performance in the AD7384-4BCPZ?
The AD7384-4BCPZ's oversampling block supports OSR up to 8×, increasing effective resolution by up to 2 bits and improving SNR by up to 6 dB per OSR doubling. At OSR = 8×, SNR reaches 91.3 dB (typical), enabling 16-bit-equivalent dynamic range at reduced bandwidth - ideal for applications like EDFA gain control where noise floor reduction is critical.
What is the function of the SDOD/ALERT pin on the AD7384-4BCPZ?
The SDOD/ALERT pin on the AD7384-4BCPZ is a multifunction terminal that operates either as Serial Data Output D or as an active-low ALERT indicator. When configured as ALERT, it asserts low when any conversion result exceeds user-programmed high/low thresholds stored in ALERT_HIGH_THRESHOLD and ALERT_LOW_THRESHOLD registers - enabling hardware-triggered fault response without CPU polling.
Is the AD7384-4BCPZ pin-compatible with other devices in the AD738x-4 family?
Yes, the AD7384-4BCPZ is fully pin-compatible with AD7383-4BCPZ (16-bit) and AD7381-4BCPZ (14-bit, 2 MSPS) in the same 24-lead LFCSP package. All share identical pin assignments, power sequencing, and SPI interface protocol - allowing drop-in replacement during design iteration or performance tiering without PCB revision.
