Product details
Overview
AD7476SRT-R2 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in a 6-lead SOT-23 package, operating from 2.35 V to 5.25 V with 1 MSPS throughput, 70 dB SNR at 100 kHz input, and no pipeline delay-designed for battery-powered data acquisition and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD7476SRT-R2 datasheet, AD7476SRT-R2 pinout, AD7476SRT-R2 application, or AD7476SRT-R2 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-ready sourcing guidance-focused on low-power, high-speed single-ended sampling in space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The AD7476SRT-R2 implements a standard successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with internal track-and-hold, sampling on the falling edge of CS and completing conversion in exactly 16 SCLK cycles. Its reference is derived directly from VDD, enabling a full-scale analog input range of 0 V to VDD without external components.
It interfaces via SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-/DSP-compatible serial protocol with no latency or pipelining, supports flexible clock speed management (up to 20 MHz SCLK), and enters standby mode drawing ≤1 μA-making it suitable for duty-cycled sensor readout and energy-sensitive applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - delivers 1 LSB = VDD/4096 quantization step, supporting precise measurement of small-signal variations in medical or optical sensors. |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS - enables real-time capture of signals up to 500 kHz Nyquist bandwidth, sufficient for high-speed modem or control-loop sampling. |
| SNR @ 100 kHz | 70 dB min - ensures ≥11.3 effective number of bits (ENOB) for clean digitization of mid-frequency analog waveforms. |
| Power Dissipation | 4.8 mW max at 3 V / 1 MSPS - allows continuous operation in coin-cell–powered devices for >1 year with typical 100 kSPS duty cycling. |
| Analog Input Range | 0 V to VDD - eliminates need for level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with rail-to-rail output op-amps or sensors. |
| Conversion Time | 0.8 μs max - guarantees deterministic timing for time-critical trigger-based acquisition in instrumentation and control systems. |
| Standby Current | 1 μA max - supports ultra-low-power sleep states between measurements without external power gating. |
Pinout & Package
AD7476SRT-R2 is housed in a Pb-free, RoHS-compliant 6-lead SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), with 1.3 mm × 2.1 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height-optimized for compact PCB layouts in handheld and wearable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (Pin 1) | Power supply input | Supplies all internal circuitry; also serves as ADC reference source-requires local 100 nF decoupling to GND for noise-sensitive conversions. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Analog ground reference | Common return path for analog input and internal reference; must be routed separately from digital ground to minimize noise coupling. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Analog input channel | Single-ended input accepting 0 V to VDD range; 30 pF input capacitance requires careful driver impedance matching for settling accuracy. |
| SCLK (Pin 4) | Serial clock input | Controls both data transfer timing and conversion clocking-supports up to 20 MHz; duty cycle tolerance 40/60 to 60/40. |
| SDATA (Pin 5) | Serial data output | MSB-first 16-bit frame: four leading zeros + 12-bit result + zero padding; tri-states after conversion completes per t8 timing spec. |
| CS (Pin 6) | Chip select / conversion trigger | Active-low signal initiating sample-and-hold on falling edge; also frames serial data-minimum pulse width 10 ns. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | Guaranteed deterministic 0.8 μs conversion time with immediate data availability-enables tight control-loop timing in motor drives and feedback systems. |
| Supply-derived reference | VDD-referenced architecture eliminates external voltage reference IC and associated BOM cost, layout area, and drift sources. |
| Flexible serial interface | Fully compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP host controllers-no protocol translation logic required. |
| Ultra-low standby current | 1 μA maximum shutdown current allows integration into always-on sensor nodes without compromising battery life. |
| Wide supply range | Operates from 2.35 V to 5.25 V-supports direct connection to Li-ion, Li-Po, or regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails without LDO overhead. |

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-R2 | Same die, 6-lead SOT-23 package but with tape-and-reel packaging per JEDEC standard; identical electrical specs and pinout. | Designed for automated SMT assembly; same thermal and electrical behavior-direct drop-in replacement in production lines. | Select AD7476ARTZ-R2 for volume manufacturing with pick-and-place equipment; AD7476SRT-R2 is optimized for prototyping and low-volume evaluation. |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit SAR ADC in 8-lead SOIC; 200 kSPS max throughput; requires external reference; higher 1.25 mW power at 3 V. | Better suited for board-level designs with available space and need for external reference flexibility; not pin-compatible. | Choose ADS7822U only if external reference control or SOIC handling is mandatory; AD7476SRT-R2 offers superior speed, lower power, and smaller footprint. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7476SRT-R2?
The AD7476SRT-R2 supports a maximum throughput rate of 1 MSPS under specified conditions: VDD = 2.7 V to 5.25 V and fSCLK = 20 MHz. This corresponds to a minimum conversion time of 0.8 μs and requires 16 SCLK cycles per sample. At lower supply voltages (e.g., 2.35 V), the maximum rate reduces to 600 kSPS per the B/S version specifications documented in the AD7476 datasheet Rev. F.
Does the AD7476SRT-R2 require an external voltage reference?
No, the AD7476SRT-R2 uses an internal reference derived from the VDD supply, enabling a full-scale analog input range of 0 V to VDD. This eliminates the need for an external reference IC, reducing BOM cost, PCB area, and potential error sources such as reference drift or noise coupling-making it ideal for compact, cost-sensitive designs.
What are the operating temperature limits for the AD7476SRT-R2?
The AD7476SRT-R2 is rated for commercial operation from −40°C to +85°C (A version). It is not the extended-temperature S version (−55°C to +125°C); that variant carries the suffix "-SR" or "-SRT" with different ordering codes. The SRT-R2 suffix indicates the commercial-grade 6-lead SOT-23 package with tape-and-reel packaging optimized for prototyping and low-volume use.
How does the AD7476SRT-R2 handle power-down mode?
The AD7476SRT-R2 enters full power-down mode when the SCLK is held inactive and CS remains high, drawing ≤1 μA typical current. Power-up time from this state is 1 μs typical. This feature enables aggressive duty-cycling in battery-powered applications-such as waking once per second to sample a sensor-without external power switches or sequencing circuitry.
Is the AD7476SRT-R2 pin-compatible with other members of the AD7476/AD7477/AD7478 family?
Yes, the AD7476SRT-R2 shares identical pinout, package, and interface timing with AD7477SRT-R2 and AD7478SRT-R2. All three variants use the same 6-lead SOT-23 footprint and 6-pin functional mapping (VDD, GND, VIN, SCLK, SDATA, CS), allowing hardware reuse across 12-/10-/8-bit resolution requirements-provided software handles differing data word lengths (12 vs. 10 vs. 8 bits).
