Product details
Overview
AD7482ASTZ from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 3 MSPS successive approximation ADC with parallel interface, 40 MHz input bandwidth, internal 2.5 V reference, and dual power-saving modes (nap/standby). It operates from a single 5 V supply and supports shifted input ranges (−200 mV to +2.7 V) for single-supply op amp interfacing in high-speed data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7482ASTZ datasheet, AD7482ASTZ pinout, AD7482ASTZ application, or AD7482ASTZ equivalent, key selection criteria include throughput rate (3 MSPS), dc accuracy (±0.5 LSB INL, B grade), overrange capability (13th bit), VDRIVE-adjustable digital interface voltage (2.7–5.25 V), and 48-lead LQFP package thermal performance (θJA = 50°C/W).
Technical Context
The AD7482ASTZ uses an algorithmic SAR architecture with capacitive DAC and integrated track-and-hold, delivering no pipeline delay and 300 ns conversion time. Its analog front-end supports full-scale overrange detection via D12 and user-accessible offset register for system-level calibration.
It features two parallel interface modes (Mode 1 and Mode 2), configurable via MODE1/MODE2 pins, with BUSY timing behavior differing between modes-latching output on BUSY rise in Mode 1 versus post-CONVST latch in Mode 2-enabling flexible microcontroller/DSP synchronization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit with 13th-bit overrange flag (D12) for ±8% input excursion beyond nominal 0–2.5 V range |
| Throughput Rate | 3 MSPS in Parallel Mode 2; 2.5 MSPS in Parallel Mode 1-directly impacts real-time sampling window and buffer depth requirements |
| SINAD | 71 dB at 1 MHz input-defines usable dynamic range for medium-bandwidth signal digitization |
| INL (B Grade) | ±0.5 LSB-ensures monotonicity and <0.012% full-scale linearity error in precision measurement |
| Power Dissipation | 90 mW normal mode; 2.5 mW nap mode; 10 µW standby-enables burst-mode operation in power-constrained embedded systems |
| Analog Input Range | −200 mV to +2.7 V with offset shift-supports bipolar signal capture using single-supply op amps without level-shifting circuitry |
| VDRIVE Range | 2.7 V to 5.25 V-allows interface voltage matching to host logic (e.g., 3.3 V MCU I/O) while AVDD/DVDD remain at 5 V |
Pinout & Package
The AD7482ASTZ is housed in a 48-lead LQFP package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin layout separates analog (AVDD, AGND, VIN, REFOUT, REFIN, REFSEL, CBIAS) and digital (DVDD, DGND, D0–D12, CS, RD, WRITE, BUSY, CONVST, MODE1, MODE2, STBY, NAP, RESET, CLIP, VDRIVE) domains to minimize noise coupling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Analog input channel | Single-ended input accepting −200 mV to +2.7 V; requires external driver with ≥40 MHz bandwidth (e.g., AD8021) |
| REFOUT / REFIN / REFSEL | Reference subsystem | REFOUT delivers buffered 2.5 V internal reference; REFIN accepts external 2.5 V source; REFSEL decouples internal ref or grounds external ref path |
| D0–D11 | Data I/O bus | 12-bit straight binary output (D11 = MSB); three-state controlled by CS/RD; voltage levels set by VDRIVE |
| D12 | Overrange indicator | Active-high flag signaling input > +2.7 V or < −200 mV; enables fault detection without software parsing |
| CONVST | Conversion trigger | Falling-edge initiated sampling; initiates T/H hold and SAR sequence-synchronizes acquisition to system clock edge |
| BUSY | Conversion status | Active-low open-drain output; timing behavior differs between Mode 1 (latched result) and Mode 2 (conversion complete) |
| STBY / NAP | Power control | STBY = logic high → 10 µW standby; NAP = logic high → 2.5 mW low-power wake-ready mode |
| VDRIVE | Digital I/O voltage reference | Sets logic thresholds for all digital pins (CS, RD, etc.) independent of AVDD/DVDD-enables mixed-voltage system interfacing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay SAR architecture | Enables deterministic latency (300 ns conversion + 70 ns acquisition) for closed-loop control timing budgets |
| User-accessible offset register | Allows real-time system offset correction without external DAC or calibration hardware |
| Full-scale overrange mode (13th bit) | Preserves signal integrity during transient excursions beyond nominal range-avoids clipping-induced distortion |
| Two parallel interface modes | Mode 1 simplifies read timing (BUSY rise = data valid); Mode 2 maximizes throughput (3 MSPS) with external CONVST coordination |
| VDRIVE pin for digital interface scaling | Permits direct connection to 3.3 V or 5 V logic families without level translators-reduces BOM count and layout complexity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7484ASTZ | 14-bit resolution, same 48-lead LQFP package, pin-compatible upgrade with identical pinout and interface logic | Higher resolution required for spectral analysis or metrology-grade measurements where 12-bit quantization noise is limiting | Select AD7484ASTZ when system SNR budget demands >74 dB theoretical SINAD and board layout reuse is critical |
| ADS8325IPFBT | 16-bit, 2.7 MSPS, SPI interface, 3 V supply only, no internal reference, different package (48-pin TQFP) | Low-power portable instrumentation where SPI simplifies routing and 3 V operation reduces system power | Choose ADS8325IPFBT for battery-powered designs needing higher resolution but accepting serial interface overhead and external reference design effort |
Compared with AD7482ASTZ, AD7484ASTZ offers direct pin-compatible resolution upgrade without layout change, while ADS8325IPFBT trades parallel interface simplicity for higher resolution and lower supply voltage at the cost of added reference and interface design complexity.

FAQ
What is the maximum input frequency the AD7482ASTZ can accurately digitize?
The AD7482ASTZ has a full-power bandwidth of 40 MHz at the −3 dB point, meaning it maintains specified ac performance (e.g., SINAD ≥71 dB) for input signals up to 40 MHz. For highest fidelity, use with analog drivers like the AD8021 and maintain proper PCB layout with ground plane separation and decoupling per the datasheet guidelines.
Does the AD7482ASTZ require an external reference, or does it have an internal one?
The AD7482ASTZ includes an internal 2.5 V reference buffered at REFOUT, eliminating the need for an external reference in most applications. However, it also supports external 2.5 V references via REFIN for improved stability or temperature drift performance-REFSEL must be grounded when using an external source.
How does the overrange capability (13th bit) function in the AD7482ASTZ?
The AD7482ASTZ provides overrange detection via the D12 pin: when the analog input exceeds +2.7 V or falls below −200 mV, D12 asserts high while D0–D11 retain the clipped 12-bit code. This allows firmware to detect saturation events without parsing codes-critical for protecting downstream signal processing algorithms from corrupted data.
Can the AD7482ASTZ interface directly with a 3.3 V microcontroller?
Yes-the AD7482ASTZ's VDRIVE pin accepts 2.7 V to 5.25 V, allowing its digital interface (CS, RD, D0–D12, etc.) to operate at 3.3 V logic levels while AVDD/DVDD remain at 5 V. This eliminates level-shifting components and ensures reliable timing margins when interfacing with common 3.3 V MCUs and DSPs.
What is the difference between nap mode and standby mode in the AD7482ASTZ?
Nap mode (NAP = high) reduces power to 2.5 mW while keeping reference circuitry active for fast wake-up (<300 ns to conversion start with external reference); standby mode (STBY = high) cuts power to 10 µW but requires longer wake-up (500 ms with internal ref, 80 µs with external ref). Nap mode suits burst acquisition; standby suits infrequent sampling.
