Product details
Overview
AD7495BRM from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 1 MSPS successive-approximation ADC with on-chip 2.5 V reference, single-supply operation (2.7 V to 5.25 V), 68 dB SINAD at 300 kHz input, and SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface. It serves as a high-speed analog front-end digitizer in portable instrumentation and battery-powered data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7495BRM datasheet, AD7495BRM pinout, AD7495BRM application, or AD7495BRM equivalent, key selection considerations include its integrated 2.5 V reference output (REF OUT), VDRIVE logic-level independence, 1 µA full power-down current, 8-lead MSOP package, and absence of pipeline delay for deterministic sampling control.
Technical Context
The AD7495BRM implements a capacitive DAC-based successive-approximation architecture with track-and-hold acquisition time ≤325 ns for full-scale steps and aperture jitter of 50 ps typ. Its conversion is initiated by CS falling edge and clocked by SCLK - no internal pipeline stages ensure precise sampling timing control.
It features dual supply domains: VDD powers analog and core logic (2.7 V–5.25 V), while VDRIVE independently sets digital I/O voltage (2.7 V–5.25 V), enabling direct interfacing with 3 V or 5 V microprocessors without level shifters. The on-chip 2.5 V reference provides ±1% initial accuracy and 50 ppm/°C tempco, buffered at REF OUT with 10 Ω typical output impedance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - delivers 4096 discrete output codes for precision measurement applications. |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS max - supports real-time sampling of signals up to ~300 kHz with ≥68 dB SINAD. |
| SINAD | 68 dB min at fIN = 300 kHz - enables accurate digitization of medium-bandwidth sensor signals. |
| Power Dissipation | 6 mW max at 3 V / 1 MSPS - suitable for thermally constrained, battery-operated designs. |
| Reference | On-chip 2.5 V ±1% (REF OUT) - eliminates external reference component and layout area. |
| Power-Down Current | 1 µA max - reduces standby power in intermittent-sampling systems like wireless sensors. |

Pinout & Package
AD7495BRM is housed in an 8-lead MSOP package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts. Pin functions are validated per Analog Devices Rev. D datasheet Figures 6 and Table 5.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (REF OUT) | On-chip reference output | Provides 2.4625 V to 2.5375 V buffered 2.5 V reference; requires ≥100 nF decoupling to GND. |
| 2 (VIN) | Analog input | Single-ended input with 0 V to 2.5 V range; 20 pF input capacitance affects anti-aliasing filter design. |
| 3 (GND) | Analog ground | Primary ground reference for analog circuitry; must be connected to low-impedance analog plane. |
| 4 (SCLK) | Serial clock input | Drives both data transfer and internal conversion timing; supports up to 20 MHz clock rate. |
| 5 (SDATA) | Serial data output | MSB-first 12-bit result preceded by four leading zeros; tri-state controlled by CS. |
| 6 (VDRIVE) | Digital I/O supply | Sets logic thresholds independently of VDD - enables mixed-voltage system interfacing. |
| 7 (CS) | Chip select (active low) | Initiates conversion on falling edge; frames serial data transfer and controls SDATA three-state. |
| 8 (VDD) | Analog/digital core supply | Single 2.7 V–5.25 V supply powers ADC core, track-and-hold, and internal logic. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | Sampling instant precisely controlled by CS falling edge - eliminates latency uncertainty in closed-loop systems. |
| VDRIVE logic independence | Serial interface operates at 2.7 V–5.25 V regardless of VDD - avoids level shifters when interfacing with 3 V or 5 V processors. |
| On-chip 2.5 V reference | REF OUT provides stable, buffered reference with 50 ppm/°C drift - reduces BOM count and improves system-level accuracy. |
| Flexible power management | Three operating modes (normal, partial power-down, full power-down) allow dynamic power scaling based on throughput demand. |
| Wide supply range | 2.7 V–5.25 V operation supports both Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2 V) and regulated 5 V rails without redesign. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7475BRM | Lacks on-chip reference; requires external 2.5 V REF IN; lower power (4.5 mW at 3 V/1 MSPS) vs. AD7495BRM's 6 mW. | Suitable where board space allows external reference and lowest possible active power is critical. | Select AD7475BRM only if external reference is already present and power budget is tighter than reference integration benefit. |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit, 250 kSPS max, no internal reference, 3 V–5.5 V supply, SPI interface, 8-pin SOIC package. | Lower throughput limits use in slower-sampling applications like basic sensor monitoring. | Choose ADS7822U when 1 MSPS is unnecessary and cost-sensitive, low-complexity designs dominate. |
Compared with AD7475BRM and ADS7822U, the AD7495BRM uniquely combines 1 MSPS speed, integrated 2.5 V reference, and VDRIVE flexibility - making it optimal for space- and power-constrained systems requiring self-contained, high-fidelity digitization without external support components.

FAQ
What is the reference voltage source for AD7495BRM?
The AD7495BRM integrates a precision 2.5 V bandgap reference, accessible at the REF OUT pin (Pin 1). This output provides 2.4625 V to 2.5375 V with 50 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and requires ≥100 nF ceramic decoupling to GND. Unlike the AD7475BRM, the AD7495BRM does not accept an external reference - REF IN is not present on this variant.
Does AD7495BRM support SPI-compatible serial communication?
Yes, the AD7495BRM features a SPI-/QSPI™-/MICROWIRE-/DSP-compatible serial interface. It uses CS (active-low chip select), SCLK (serial clock), and SDATA (serial data out) pins. Data is output MSB-first as a 12-bit word preceded by four leading zeros, synchronized to the falling edge of SCLK, with timing fully compliant to standard SPI Mode 0 and Mode 3 protocols.
What is the maximum sampling rate and corresponding power consumption of AD7495BRM?
The AD7495BRM achieves a maximum throughput rate of 1 MSPS. At this rate, power dissipation is 6 mW max with a 3 V supply and 13 mW max with a 5 V supply. Power scales with throughput: in partial power-down mode at 100 kSPS, consumption drops to 690 µW (3 V) or 1.15 mW (5 V), and full power-down draws just 1 µA.
How does the VDRIVE pin function on AD7495BRM?
The VDRIVE pin on AD7495BRM sets the logic threshold voltages for all digital inputs (CS, SCLK) and output (SDATA), independent of VDD. It accepts 2.7 V to 5.25 V, allowing direct connection to 3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry. For example, AD7495BRM can operate from a 5 V VDD while interfacing to a 3 V processor via VDRIVE = 3 V.
What package type and dimensions does AD7495BRM use?
The AD7495BRM is supplied in an 8-lead MSOP package (RM suffix), measuring 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm with 0.65 mm lead pitch. This compact, surface-mount outline provides thermal impedance of 205.9°C/W (θJA) and is RoHS-compliant. Pin configuration matches the AD7475BRM except that Pin 1 is REF OUT instead of REF IN.
