Product details
Overview
AD7450ARM-REEL from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 1 MSPS successive approximation ADC with fully differential analog input, 3 V/5 V single-supply operation, and SPI/QSPI-compatible serial interface. It features no pipeline delay, 70 dB SINAD at 300 kHz, and 1 µA max power-down current-designed for high-fidelity transducer interface and portable instrumentation where timing precision and low power are critical.
For engineers reviewing the AD7450ARM-REEL datasheet, AD7450ARM-REEL pinout, AD7450ARM-REEL application, or AD7450ARM-REEL equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-8 package mapping, real-world use-value context, and two validated alternative parts for design flexibility in battery-powered data acquisition and motor control systems.
Technical Context
The AD7450ARM-REEL implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with dual capacitive DACs and an integrated differential track-and-hold amplifier (T/H) featuring 20 MHz –3 dB bandwidth and 50 ps aperture jitter. Its conversion is initiated by CS falling edge and clocked entirely by SCLK-no external timing controller required.
All digital I/O is SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible with MSB-first two's complement output, four leading zeros, and three-state SDATA controlled by SCLK edge timing. Power management is tightly coupled to serial clock speed: throughput scales linearly with fSCLK up to 18 MHz, enabling dynamic power reduction without mode switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit-supports 4096 distinct codes with LSB = 2×VREF/4096 for precise amplitude quantization. |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS at 5 V / 833 kSPS at 3 V-enables real-time sampling of signals up to 300 kHz with ≥70 dB SINAD. |
| Differential Input Span | ±VREF (full-scale = 2×VREF)-allows flexible signal centering via externally set common-mode voltage. |
| Reference Range | VREF = 100 mV to 3.5 V (5 V supply) or 100 mV to 2.2 V (3 V supply)-enables wide dynamic range tuning. |
| Power-Down Current | 1 µA max-reduces standby power to sub-microwatt level for intermittent sampling in battery systems. |
| INL Error | ±1 LSB max (B version)-ensures monotonicity and <0.025% full-scale linearity error across temperature. |
| Aperture Jitter | 50 ps typ-limits SNR degradation to <0.3 dB loss at 300 kHz input, critical for undersampling applications. |
Pinout & Package
AD7450ARM-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package (SOIC-8, body size 3.9 mm × 4.9 mm, lead pitch 1.27 mm), RoHS-compliant and rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VREF | External reference input | Defines full-scale span (2×VREF) and common-mode bias point; requires ≥0.1 µF decoupling to GND. |
| VIN+ | Differential analog input (+) | Accepts signal phase-aligned to VIN–; input capacitance = 20 pF (track), 6 pF (hold). |
| VIN– | Differential analog input (–) | Accepts inverted-phase signal; matched impedance critical to avoid settling asymmetry and INL error. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Single-point return for all analog circuitry; must be isolated from digital ground to prevent noise coupling. |
| CS | Active-low chip select | Initiates conversion on falling edge and frames serial data; minimum pulse width = 10 ns. |
| SDATA | Serial data output | Three-state, MSB-first two's complement output with four leading zeros; enabled 40 ns after SCLK falling edge. |
| SCLK | Serial clock input | Drives both data transfer and internal conversion timing; max frequency = 18 MHz (5 V), 15 MHz (3 V). |
| VDD | Single power supply | Accepts 3 V ±10% or 5 V ±5%; requires 0.1 µF ceramic + 10 µF tantalum decoupling to GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | True SAR architecture delivers deterministic 16-SCLK conversion time-enables precise trigger-to-data latency control in closed-loop systems. |
| Fully differential input | Rejects common-mode noise up to 90 dB at 10 kHz and doubles effective dynamic range versus single-ended inputs. |
| Flexible reference scaling | VREF programmability from 100 mV to 3.5 V allows optimization of resolution vs. input range without external gain stages. |
| Low-power serial interface | Logic I/O leakage ≤±1 µA and input capacitance ≤10 pF minimize bus loading and enable direct FPGA/microcontroller connection. |
| High-speed track-and-hold | 20 MHz full-power bandwidth and 200 ns max acquisition time support accurate sampling of fast-rising transducer outputs. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, 200 kSPS max, single-ended input only, no power-down mode | Limited to lower-accuracy, non-differential applications like basic voltage monitoring | Select only when resolution and differential capability are not required; AD7450ARM-REEL offers 4× resolution and noise immunity. |
| MAX11100ETE+ | 12-bit, 1 MSPS, differential input, but uses internal reference (2.048 V fixed) and requires 2.7–3.6 V supply only | Not suitable for 5 V systems or variable-reference designs; lacks VREF flexibility of AD7450ARM-REEL | Choose MAX11100ETE+ only for compact 3.3 V designs needing internal reference simplicity; AD7450ARM-REEL supports wider supply and reference ranges. |
Compared with ADS7822U and MAX11100ETE+, AD7450ARM-REEL uniquely combines 12-bit differential performance, dual 3 V/5 V supply support, externally adjustable VREF (100 mV–3.5 V), and sub-µA shutdown-making it the only option for high-accuracy, multi-supply, noise-immune portable DAQ.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended reference voltage for AD7450ARM-REEL when operating from a 3 V supply?
The maximum recommended reference voltage for AD7450ARM-REEL with a 3 V supply is 2.2 V, as specified in the References section of the datasheet. Exceeding this value may degrade INL performance or cause undefined behavior. The part remains functional down to 100 mV VREF, enabling ultra-low-voltage signal digitization while maintaining 12-bit resolution. Always decouple VREF to GND with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitance for stability.
Does AD7450ARM-REEL support true bipolar input ranges?
Yes, AD7450ARM-REEL supports true bipolar differential input operation: with VREF = 1.25 V and common-mode voltage = VREF, the input range is –1.25 V to +1.25 V (VIN+ – VIN–). This is achieved by externally setting the common-mode level-no internal level-shifting circuitry is required. The datasheet confirms functionality across VREF = 100 mV to 2.2 V (3 V supply) with corresponding common-mode range shifts per Figures 8–9.
What is the minimum SCLK frequency required for reliable operation of AD7450ARM-REEL?
The minimum SCLK frequency for AD7450ARM-REEL is 4 kHz, as specified in the timing characteristics table. Below this rate, the internal logic may fail to synchronize properly, risking data corruption or incomplete conversions. At low frequencies, ensure tQUIET ≥25 ns between serial read completion and next CS falling edge to guarantee proper bus relinquishment and hold-time compliance.
Can AD7450ARM-REEL be used with a microcontroller lacking native SPI hardware?
Yes, AD7450ARM-REEL can be interfaced with GPIO-based bit-banged controllers because its serial protocol requires only three signals (CS, SCLK, SDATA) and follows standard SPI Mode 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0). Data is sampled on the falling edge of SCLK, and CS must be held low for the entire 16-bit frame. Timing margins (e.g., t4 = 40 ns max SDATA enable delay) are generous enough for typical MCU GPIO toggle rates.
Is the AD7450ARM-REEL pinout compatible with other 8-lead SOIC ADCs from Analog Devices?
No, AD7450ARM-REEL has a unique pinout optimized for differential signaling and serial interface efficiency-not pin-compatible with AD74xx or AD76xx families. For example, Pin 1 is VREF (not VDD), Pin 4 is GND (not VREF), and Pin 6 is SDATA (not BUSY or CONVST). Substituting without PCB revision will result in functional failure. Always verify pin mapping against the official AD7450ARM-REEL pin configuration diagram before layout reuse.
