Product details
Overview
AD7492BRU-5 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 1.25 MSPS successive approximation ADC with integrated 2.5 V reference and on-chip clock oscillator. It operates from a single 4.75–5.25 V supply, delivers 70 dB typical SNR at 100 kHz input, and features no pipeline delay for deterministic timing in high-speed data acquisition systems used in industrial instrumentation and real-time control.
For engineers reviewing the AD7492BRU-5 datasheet, AD7492BRU-5 pinout, AD7492BRU-5 application, or AD7492BRU-5 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 680 ns conversion time, flexible VDRIVE interface voltage control, dual sleep modes (full/partial), parallel 12-bit output with CS/RD handshaking, and SOIC/TSSOP package compatibility for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The AD7492BRU-5 implements a capacitive DAC-based SAR architecture with track/hold amplifier bandwidth up to 10 MHz. Its conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CONVST, and BUSY asserts for exactly 680 ns before going low - indicating completion with zero latency between sampling and result availability.
It uses internal 2.5 V ±1.5% reference and oscillator, eliminating external components. The VDRIVE pin independently sets digital I/O voltage levels (2.7–5.25 V), enabling seamless interfacing with 3 V logic while analog circuitry runs at 5 V for optimal dynamic performance.

Applications
| Industrial PLC Analog Input Module | Medical Patient Monitor Signal Chain |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit parallel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit, 200 kSPS, SPI interface, no internal reference - lower resolution, serial interface, higher power per sample | Cost-sensitive, low-channel-count portable instruments where 8-bit resolution suffices | Select only if resolution ≤8 bits and serial interface preferred over parallel bus timing control |
| MAX1166BCAP+ | 12-bit, 250 kSPS, internal reference, SPI interface - slower throughput, different interface protocol, same resolution class | Space-constrained embedded systems using existing SPI infrastructure and not requiring >250 kSPS | Choose when board layout favors SPI routing and throughput ≤250 kSPS satisfies system requirements |
Compared with ADS7822U and MAX1166BCAP+, the AD7492BRU-5 uniquely delivers 1.25 MSPS parallel throughput with internal clock/reference in a TSSOP package - making it the only option among the three suitable for deterministic, high-speed, low-component-count data acquisition where timing predictability and minimal external BOM are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7492BRU-5?
The AD7492BRU-5 supports a maximum throughput rate of 1.25 MSPS, corresponding to a conversion time of 680 ns and minimum acquisition time of 120 ns. This allows reliable sampling of input signals up to 625 kHz (Nyquist limit) while maintaining specified DC and AC performance across the full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). The AD7492BRU-5 achieves this without pipeline delay, ensuring each conversion result corresponds precisely to the sampled instant defined by the CONVST falling edge.
Does the AD7492BRU-5 require an external reference or clock source?
No, the AD7492BRU-5 does not require external reference or clock sources. It integrates a precision 2.5 V ±1.5% reference (available at REF OUT pin) and an on-chip clock oscillator. These features eliminate two external components, reduce PCB area, simplify layout, and improve system reliability. The internal clock determines conversion rate, and the internal reference sets the full-scale analog input range (0 V to 2.5 V), making the AD7492BRU-5 a self-contained solution for many 12-bit acquisition applications.
How does the VDRIVE pin function in the AD7492BRU-5?
The VDRIVE pin on the AD7492BRU-5 supplies power to the digital I/O buffer circuitry and sets logic threshold levels (VINH = VDRIVE × 0.7, VINL = VDRIVE × 0.3) and output swing (VOH = VDRIVE − 0.2 V). This allows independent configuration of digital interface voltage (2.7–5.25 V) separate from AVDD/DVDD, enabling direct interfacing with 3 V microcontrollers or FPGAs while running analog circuitry at 5 V for optimal SNR. This feature avoids level-shifter components and simplifies mixed-voltage system design.
What are the power consumption characteristics of the AD7492BRU-5 in sleep modes?
The AD7492BRU-5 offers two hardware-selectable sleep modes via the PS/FS pin: partial sleep draws ≤250 μA (typ 190 μA), retaining reference and oscillator for fast wake-up (<203 μs); full sleep draws ≤1 μA (typ 200 nA), powering down all analog circuitry for ultra-low standby power. In normal operation at 1.25 MSPS with 5 V supplies, typical power dissipation is 16 mW (2.75 mA). These modes enable adaptive power management in battery-powered or thermally constrained applications without sacrificing acquisition readiness.
Is the AD7492BRU-5 pin-compatible with other variants in the AD7492 family?
Yes, the AD7492BRU-5 shares identical pinout and package (24-lead TSSOP) with AD7492BRU and AD7492BRU-4. All variants use the same functional block diagram, interface signals (CONVST, BUSY, CS, RD, DB0–DB11), and supply domains (AVDD, DVDD, VDRIVE, AGND, DGND). The primary differences are throughput (1.25 MSPS vs 1 MSPS vs 400 kSPS) and associated timing parameters (e.g., BUSY pulse width: 680 ns for AD7492BRU-5 vs 880 ns for AD7492BRU). This allows drop-in replacement in existing layouts when higher speed is needed.
