Product details
Overview
AD7625BCPZ from Analog Devices is a 16-bit, 6 MSPS differential successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with 93 dB SNR, ±1 LSB INL, and LVDS serial interface - designed for high-speed, high-dynamic-range data acquisition in telecommunications receivers and spectrum analyzers.
For engineers reviewing the AD7625BCPZ datasheet, AD7625BCPZ pinout, AD7625BCPZ application, or AD7625BCPZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its no-latency SAR architecture, ±4.096 V differential input range, internal/external reference flexibility, and 32-lead 5 mm × 5 mm LFCSP package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The AD7625BCPZ implements a charge redistribution SAR architecture with dual capacitor arrays sampling antiphase differential inputs (IN+, IN−), enabling true 16-bit resolution with no missing codes and zero pipeline delay. Its conversion control accepts either CMOS (CNV+) or differential LVDS (CNV±) signals.
It supports two LVDS readout modes: self-clocked (with 2-bit header synchronization) and echoed-clock (where DCO± mirrors CLK±), both delivering 16-bit twos-complement data at 6 MSPS. Internal reference generation (4.096 V from 1.2 V bandgap) and external REF/REFIN options provide system-level flexibility without sacrificing accuracy.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - guarantees no missing codes and full-scale linearity suitable for precision instrumentation. |
| Throughput Rate | 6 MSPS - enables real-time capture of wideband signals up to 100 MHz −3 dB input bandwidth. |
| SNR | 93 dB - supports >15.2 ENOB for high-fidelity signal reconstruction in test equipment. |
| Differential Input Range | ±4.096 V - matches standard precision reference voltages and simplifies front-end amplifier design. |
| INL | ±1 LSB maximum - ensures monotonicity and accurate amplitude measurement across full temperature range. |
| Power Dissipation | 135 mW at 6 MSPS with internal reference - balances speed and thermal management in dense PCB layouts. |
| Aperture Jitter | 0.25 ps rms - minimizes sampling uncertainty for high-frequency sinusoidal inputs. |
Pinout & Package
The AD7625BCPZ is housed in a 32-lead, 5 mm × 5 mm LFCSP_WQ package with exposed thermal pad requiring multiple vias to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 (Pins 1, 5, 6, 19, 20) | Analog 5 V supply | Power domain for SAR core and reference buffer; requires local 100 nF decoupling per pin. |
| VDD2 (Pins 7, 18) | Analog 2.5 V supply | Supplies internal DAC and comparator; must be routed before other VDD2 pins to minimize noise coupling. |
| VIO (Pin 12) | I/O interface supply | Defines LVDS logic levels for D±, DCO±, CLK±; decoupled with 100 nF capacitor. |
| CNV+, CNV− (Pins 8, 9) | Conversion trigger | Differential LVDS or single-ended CMOS input initiating sample-and-hold on rising edge. |
| IN+, IN− (Pins 22, 23) | Differential analog inputs | Accept antiphase signals referenced to VCM = REF/2; support ±4.096 V differential swing. |
| REF (Pins 29, 30, 32) | Buffered reference output | Delivers 4.096 V ±20 mV; all three pins must be shorted and decoupled with single 10 μF low-ESR capacitor. |
| D+, D− (Pins 10, 11) | LVDS data outputs | Serial twos-complement output; MSB-first timing referenced to CLK± or DCO± depending on mode. |
| DCO+, DCO− (Pins 14, 15) | LVDS clock echo outputs | Enable echoed-clock mode when ungrounded; grounded DCO+ selects self-clocked mode with 2-bit sync header. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No latency / no pipeline delay | True SAR architecture delivers deterministic conversion time (166 ns) - critical for closed-loop control and real-time triggering. |
| Internal 4.096 V buffered reference | Eliminates external reference IC and associated layout complexity while maintaining ±15 ppm/°C drift over −40°C to +85°C. |
| LVDS serial interface (self-clocked or echoed-clock) | Reduces digital I/O count to 4 pins (D±, DCO± or CLK±), minimizing EMI and PCB routing congestion at 6 MSPS. |
| Antiphase differential input architecture | Rejects common-mode noise up to 60 dB at 1 MHz and enables direct connection to transformer-coupled RF front-ends. |
| Three independent power domains (VDD1/VDD2/VIO) | Allows separate analog/digital supply optimization and noise isolation - essential for achieving 93 dB SNR in mixed-signal systems. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7626BCPZ | Same 16-bit, 6 MSPS SAR architecture but with 8-channel MUX and sequencer; higher power (165 mW). | Designed for multiplexed multi-sensor systems; lacks AD7625BCPZ's optimized single-channel SNR (93 dB vs. 91.5 dB). | Select AD7626BCPZ only when channel sequencing is required; AD7625BCPZ offers superior noise performance for dedicated high-fidelity channels. |
| AD7961BCPZ | 16-bit, 5 MSPS SAR ADC with similar LVDS interface but lower SNR (91 dB) and wider INL (±1.5 LSB max). | Targeted at cost-sensitive industrial DAQ; uses 32-lead LFCSP but lacks internal reference buffer. | Choose AD7961BCPZ for lower-cost, lower-accuracy applications where 2 dB SNR loss and external reference are acceptable. |
Compared with AD7626BCPZ and AD7961BCPZ, the AD7625BCPZ delivers the highest SNR and tightest INL in its 6 MSPS class, making it optimal for single-channel, metrology-grade acquisition where dynamic range and linearity are prioritized over channel count or BOM cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7625BCPZ?
The AD7625BCPZ supports a maximum throughput rate of 6 MSPS, corresponding to a minimum conversion cycle time of 166 ns. This rate is achievable across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) with specified AC performance including 93 dB SNR and 106 dB SFDR when using the internal reference and proper layout practices.
Does the AD7625BCPZ require an external reference voltage?
No - the AD7625BCPZ integrates a precision 4.096 V buffered reference derived from an internal 1.2 V bandgap source. It also supports external reference configurations: a 1.2 V source applied to REFIN (enabling internal buffer) or a 4.096 V source applied directly to REF (requiring internal reference disable via EN1/EN0 pins). All three REF pins must be shorted and decoupled with a single 10 μF capacitor.
How does the LVDS interface of the AD7625BCPZ operate in self-clocked versus echoed-clock mode?
In self-clocked mode (DCO+ grounded), the AD7625BCPZ outputs a 2-bit synchronization header (10) followed by 16-bit data on D±, allowing simple host logic to align to the data stream. In echoed-clock mode (DCO+ ungrounded), DCO± replicates CLK±, and data bits are latched on the rising edge of DCO+ after being driven on its falling edge - matching standard LVDS source-synchronous timing conventions.
What is the purpose of the VCM pin on the AD7625BCPZ?
The VCM pin on the AD7625BCPZ outputs a precise 2.048 V (REF/2) common-mode voltage, generated internally regardless of reference configuration (internal, REFIN, or external REF). This voltage is intended to bias the common-mode level of differential input amplifiers driving IN+ and IN−, ensuring optimal linearity and CMRR performance across the full input range.
Can the AD7625BCPZ be used with a single-ended input signal?
No - the AD7625BCPZ is strictly a differential-input ADC with antiphase architecture requiring complementary IN+ and IN− signals swinging 180° out of phase around VCM = 2.048 V. Single-ended signals must be converted to differential format using a transformer or fully differential amplifier (FDA) to maintain specified performance including 60 dB CMRR and 93 dB SNR.
