Product details
Overview
AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, micropower successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) operating from 1.6 V to 3.6 V supply. It delivers 200 kSPS throughput, 70 dB SNR at 30 kHz input, and 0.12 mW typical power at 1.6 V/100 kSPS, targeting precision signal acquisition in ultra-low-power systems such as portable medical sensors and remote data loggers.
For engineers reviewing the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 datasheet, AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 pinout, AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 application, or AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 6-lead SOT-23 package, SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface, internal VDD-referenced conversion, no pipeline delay, and guaranteed no missing codes over full 12-bit range.
Technical Context
The AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 implements a standard successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with a track-and-hold amplifier supporting >3 MHz input bandwidth. Conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS, and data is clocked out MSB-first on SDATA synchronized to SCLK falling edges.
It uses an internal reference derived from VDD, enabling a 0 V to VDD analog input range. The 16-cycle conversion time (at 3.4 MHz SCLK) yields 4.70 μs max conversion time and 200 kSPS maximum throughput, with automatic power-down reducing current to 8 nA typical between conversions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - guarantees monotonic output and no missing codes across full scale |
| Throughput Rate | 200 kSPS max - supports real-time sampling of signals up to ~30 kHz with adequate Nyquist margin |
| SNR @ 30 kHz | 70 dB min (VDD ≥ 2.5 V) - enables accurate digitization of low-amplitude sensor signals in noisy environments |
| Power @ 100 kSPS | 0.9 mW max at 3 V - allows battery operation for months in duty-cycled data acquisition nodes |
| Supply Range | 1.6 V to 3.6 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, LiFePO₄, or dual-cell alkaline systems |
| INL | ±1.5 LSB max - ensures end-point linearity critical for closed-loop control feedback accuracy |
| Power-Down Current | 8 nA typical - minimizes quiescent drain during sleep intervals in energy-harvesting applications |
Pinout & Package
AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 is housed in a 6-lead SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), footprint-compatible with space-constrained PCB layouts and reflow-solderable per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Single power supply input (1.6–3.6 V); also serves as ADC reference source |
| 2 | GND | Analog ground reference for all internal circuitry and VIN return path |
| 3 | VIN | Single-ended analog input; accepts 0 V to VDD range with 20 pF input capacitance |
| 4 | SDATA | Serial data output; delivers 16-bit frame (4 leading zeros + 12-bit result) MSB-first on SCLK falling edge |
| 5 | SCLK | Serial clock input; controls both data transfer timing and internal conversion clock |
| 6 | CS | Active-low chip select; initiates sampling on falling edge and frames serial communication |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | Enables deterministic, cycle-accurate sampling for time-critical control loops without latency uncertainty |
| VDD-referenced conversion | Eliminates need for external reference IC or routing, simplifying BOM and layout while scaling full-scale with supply |
| SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE compatibility | Direct interfacing to common microcontrollers (e.g., STM32, MSP430, nRF52) without protocol translation logic |
| Automatic power-down | Reduces average system power by >99% between conversions-critical for intermittent sensing architectures |
| Guaranteed no missing codes | Ensures monotonicity required for position encoders, thermistor linearization, and safety-critical monitoring |
Applications
| Portable ECG Monitor | Wireless Sensor Node |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous acquisition of low-amplitude biopotential signals (0.5–5 mV) from dry electrodes under battery power. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary front-end ADC capturing lead-II ECG waveform at 250 SPS with DC-coupled baseline stability. Use Value: 70 dB SNR and ±1.5 LSB INL preserve diagnostic fidelity; 0.12 mW at 1.6 V extends AA battery life beyond 12 months. |
Use Scenario: Intermittent temperature/humidity reading in a LoRaWAN node powered by energy harvesting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-duty-cycle signal digitizer triggered by MCU every 60 seconds, entering 8 nA power-down between samples. Use Value: Ultra-low quiescent current and fast wake-up (<640 ns acquisition) minimize energy overhead per measurement cycle. |
| Isolated Industrial Transmitter | Implantable Medical Device |
Use Scenario: Digitizing 4–20 mA loop sensor outputs across reinforced isolation barrier in hazardous-area transmitters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolated-side ADC referenced to local VDD, communicating via SPI through digital isolator. Use Value: VDD-referenced design avoids isolated reference IC; 6-lead SOT-23 eases layout in tight isolated zones. |
Use Scenario: Battery-powered neural signal acquisition in chronic implantable neurostimulators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-fidelity analog front-end ADC sampling at 10 kSPS with minimal self-heating and leakage. Use Value: 1.6 V minimum supply enables use with aged primary cells; ±1 μA input leakage prevents tissue polarization artifacts. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822UID | 12-bit, 200 kSPS, 2.7–5.25 V supply, 8-pin SOIC package | Requires higher minimum supply (2.7 V); lacks 1.6 V operation and SOT-23 footprint | Select when board already uses 3.3 V rail and SOIC layout exists; avoid for sub-2 V battery systems. |
| MAX11100ETE+ | 12-bit, 500 kSPS, 2.7–3.6 V supply, 12-pin TDFN package | Higher speed and supply voltage floor; larger package and no 1.6 V support | Choose for higher throughput needs where 3 V+ supply is fixed and board area permits TDFN. |
Compared with ADS7822UID and MAX11100ETE+, the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 uniquely supports 1.6 V operation and fits in the smallest footprint (SOT-23), making it optimal for size- and voltage-constrained portable and implantable designs-whereas alternatives trade off voltage flexibility or package size for speed or feature set.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage supported by the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7?
The AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 operates down to 1.6 V, enabling direct interfacing with partially discharged lithium-based batteries or single-cell energy-harvesting storage elements. At 1.6 V and 100 kSPS, it consumes only 0.12 mW typical and maintains 70.5 dB SNR, making AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 ideal for deep-discharge battery operation where other 12-bit ADCs fail to function.
Does the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 require an external reference voltage?
No, the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 uses an internal reference derived from VDD, so the analog input range is always 0 V to VDD. This eliminates external reference components, reduces layout complexity, and ensures full-scale tracking with supply variations-key for AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 deployment in systems without regulated analog rails.
How does the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 achieve its low power consumption?
The AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 achieves ultralow power via automatic power-down mode (8 nA typical) between conversions, scalable supply current that drops with lower throughput (e.g., 10 μA typ at 10 kSPS/1.8 V), and optimized SAR core design. At 100 kSPS and 1.6 V, AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 draws just 20 μA typical, resulting in 0.12 mW dissipation-enabling years of operation on coin cells.
What serial interface protocols is the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 compatible with?
The AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 supports SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and generic DSP serial interfaces via its CS, SCLK, and SDATA pins. It outputs 16-bit frames (4 leading zeros + 12-bit result) MSB-first on SCLK falling edges, requiring no mode configuration-ensuring plug-and-play integration with AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 on MCUs including ARM Cortex-M, TI MSP430, and Renesas RL78 families.
Is the AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 pin-compatible with other members of the AD7466/67/68 family?
Yes, AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 shares identical pinout and package (6-lead SOT-23) with AD7467 and AD7468 variants. All three use the same CS/SCLK/SDATA/VIN/VDD/GND mapping and timing model-allowing hardware reuse across 12-/10-/8-bit resolution tiers. Firmware must adjust data length handling (12 vs. 10 vs. 8 bits), but AD7466BRMZ-REEL7 PCB layout remains unchanged.
