Product details
Overview
AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, single-supply, successive-approximation ADC in a 6-lead SC70 package. It operates from 2.35 V to 5.25 V, achieves 1 MSPS throughput, delivers 71 dB SNR at 100 kHz input, and features no pipeline delay. It serves as the primary analog front-end digitizer in portable medical sensors requiring high-speed, low-power signal acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 datasheet, AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 pinout, AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 application, or AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated SC70 pin mapping, confirmed 12-bit dynamic performance at 1 MSPS, and two technically documented alternative parts for battery-powered instrumentation design.
Technical Context
The AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 implements a standard successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with an integrated track-and-hold amplifier capable of >13 MHz full-power 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 VDD-referenced reference, enabling a 0 V to VDD analog input range. The serial interface is SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible, requires no external reference, and supports flexible power management via a 1 µA standby mode with 1 µs wake-up time.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - delivers 1 LSB = VDD/4096 quantization step for precise sensor voltage digitization |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS - supports real-time sampling of signals up to 500 kHz Nyquist bandwidth |
| SNR @ 100 kHz | 71 dB min - enables accurate measurement of small-amplitude signals in noisy environments |
| Supply Range | 2.35 V to 5.25 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V) and 3.3 V/5 V system rails |
| Power @ 1 MSPS | 5.1 mW max at 5 V - allows continuous high-speed acquisition in thermally constrained handheld devices |
| Standby Current | 1 µA max - extends battery life during idle intervals without sacrificing wake-up latency |
| Input Range | 0 V to VDD - eliminates need for level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with rail-to-rail sensors |
Pinout & Package
AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 is housed in a 6-lead SC70 package (2.0 mm × 1.25 mm, 0.9 mm height), optimized for space-constrained portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Power supply input | Single 2.35–5.25 V supply powering analog core, reference, and digital interface |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7476ARTZ-REEL7 | Same 12-bit resolution, 1 MSPS, SC70-6 package; differs in grade (A-grade vs. B-grade) and tape/reel packaging (3 k vs. 500 units). | Identical functional behavior; A-grade offers same INL/SNR specs but wider temperature range (−40°C to +85°C vs. B-grade's −40°C to +85°C - no difference per datasheet). | Select AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 for smaller reel quantity and guaranteed B-grade parametric consistency at volume. |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit, 200 kSPS max, 8-pin SOIC; lower speed, higher power (1.2 mW at 200 kSPS), external reference required. | Not suitable for 1 MSPS applications; requires additional reference IC and larger board area. | Choose ADS7822U only if system clock constraints prevent 20 MHz SCLK generation or if SOIC hand-soldering is preferred over SC70 reflow. |
Compared with AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7, AD7476ARTZ-REEL7 offers identical electrical performance in a different reel configuration, while ADS7822U trades speed and integration for legacy SOIC compatibility-making AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 optimal for new compact, high-throughput designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7?
The AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 supports a maximum throughput rate of 1 MSPS, achieved with a 20 MHz serial clock and 16 SCLK cycles per conversion. This rate is fully specified across its operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and supply range (2.35 V to 5.25 V). At lower clock frequencies, throughput scales linearly-for example, 10 MHz SCLK yields 500 kSPS.
Does the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 require an external reference voltage?
No, the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 uses an internal reference derived from VDD, enabling a full-scale analog input range of 0 V to VDD. This eliminates the need for external reference components, reduces BOM cost, and simplifies layout-especially valuable in SC70-constrained designs. No external reference pins are present on the device.
What is the analog input voltage range for the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7?
The AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 accepts a single-ended analog input from 0 V to VDD. For example, with a 3.3 V supply, the valid input range is 0 V to 3.3 V. Input overvoltage beyond VDD + 0.3 V or below −0.3 V violates absolute maximum ratings and may cause damage or latch-up.
How does the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 enter and exit standby mode?
The AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 enters standby mode when CS remains high and no SCLK activity occurs for >100 ns. It draws ≤1 µA in this state. Exit occurs on the first falling edge of CS, with full functionality restored within 1 µs-verified in the Power-Up Time section of the datasheet. No command sequence is required.
Is the AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 pin-compatible with other members of the AD7476A/AD7477A/AD7478A family?
Yes, all SC70-packaged variants-including AD7476ABKSZ-500RL7 (12-bit), AD7477ABKSZ-500RL7 (10-bit), and AD7478ABKSZ-500RL7 (8-bit)-share identical 6-lead SC70 pinouts and interface timing. They differ only in resolution, dynamic performance, and conversion cycle count (16/14/12 SCLK cycles), allowing hardware reuse across precision tiers.
