Product details
Overview
AD7656BSTZ-1 from Analog Devices is a 16-bit, 6-channel simultaneous-sampling SAR ADC with true bipolar ±10 V/±5 V input ranges, 250 kSPS throughput, and on-chip 2.5 V reference-designed for high-accuracy power line monitoring and multiaxis control systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7656BSTZ-1 datasheet, AD7656BSTZ-1 pinout, AD7656BSTZ-1 application, or AD7656BSTZ-1 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed iCMOS® process advantages, and real-world interface timing for parallel/serial/daisy-chain operation.
Technical Context
The AD7656BSTZ-1 integrates six independent 16-bit SAR cores on a single iCMOS® die, enabling true simultaneous sampling across all six channels via three dedicated CONVST inputs (A/B/C), each controlling two ADCs. Its track-and-hold supports up to 4.5 MHz full-power bandwidth with 35 ps aperture jitter and 4 ns aperture delay matching.
It features dual-mode interface selection (SER/PAR SEL), hardware/software-configurable input ranges (±4×VREF or ±2×VREF), and integrated reference buffers with 2.49–2.51 V output, 6 ppm/°C tempco, and 150 ppm long-term stability-enabling precision measurement without external reference circuitry.

| Throughput Rate | 250 kSPS in parallel mode-supports real-time capture of fast transients in power quality analyzers. |
| SNR / SINAD | 88 dB at 10 kHz-enables >14 ENOB for clean spectral analysis in instrumentation applications. |
| Analog Input Range | Pin- or software-selectable ±10 V or ±5 V-simplifies front-end design by eliminating external gain switching. |
| Reference | On-chip 2.5 V reference with 6 ppm/°C drift-reduces BOM count and improves thermal tracking vs. external references. |
| Power Dissipation | 140 mW at 250 kSPS-achieves high performance with low thermal load in dense PCB layouts. |
| Channel Isolation | −100 dB up to 100 kHz-ensures crosstalk-free acquisition in multichannel motor current sensing. |
Pinout & Package
AD7656BSTZ-1 is housed in a 64-lead LQFP package (10 mm × 10 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with separate analog/digital grounds and dedicated reference decoupling pins (REFCAPA/B/C) for optimal noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1–V6 | Analog Inputs | Single-ended, high-impedance (±1 µA leakage) true bipolar inputs supporting ±10 V/±5 V ranges. |
| CONVST A/B/C | Conversion Start | Independent edge-triggered controls for simultaneous sampling of channel pairs (V1/V2, V3/V4, V5/V6). |
| DB0–DB15 | Data Bus / Serial Outputs | 16-bit parallel data outputs or daisy-chain serial DOUT A/B/C-enables flexible microprocessor/DSP interfacing. |
| REFCAPA/B/C | Reference Decoupling | Each connects to AGND via 1 µF capacitor-stabilizes internal reference buffers per ADC pair to suppress crosstalk. |
| AVCC / DVCC / VDRIVE | Supply Rails | Separate 4.75–5.25 V analog/digital supplies plus logic-level VDRIVE (2.7–5.25 V)-isolates noise-sensitive analog core. |
| AGND / DGND | Ground Planes | 11 AGND and 2 DGND pins-require star grounding with ≤0.3 V potential difference to maintain DC accuracy. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multichannel simultaneous-sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7656BSTZ | Original version with higher decoupling requirements; identical pinout and firmware compatibility but lacks reduced-decoupling optimization. | Same functional scope but requires additional 0.1 µF + 10 µF per REFCAP versus AD7656BSTZ-1's simplified 1 µF only. | Select AD7656BSTZ-1 when minimizing BOM cost and layout area is critical; use AD7656BSTZ only if legacy design reuse mandates identical decoupling scheme. |
| LTC2358-16 | 8-channel, 16-bit, 200 kSPS; uses different serial interface (no daisy-chain), no on-chip reference, and requires external ±12 V supplies for ±10 V range. | Higher channel count but lower throughput and no integrated reference-increases external component count and reduces system-level SNR. | Choose LTC2358-16 only when 8-channel density outweighs need for simultaneous 6-channel sync and reference integration. |
Compared with AD7656BSTZ and LTC2358-16, the AD7656BSTZ-1 uniquely combines 6-channel simultaneity, on-chip 2.5 V reference, and reduced decoupling-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-accuracy power monitoring where BOM simplification and thermal management are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog input frequency supported by the AD7656BSTZ-1?
The AD7656BSTZ-1 supports a full-power bandwidth of 4.5 MHz at −3 dB, enabling accurate digitization of signals up to that frequency. Its 10 kHz sinusoidal test condition yields 88 dB SNR, and its 35 ps aperture jitter ensures minimal sampling uncertainty for high-frequency transient capture in power quality applications.
Does the AD7656BSTZ-1 require an external reference?
No-the AD7656BSTZ-1 includes an integrated 2.5 V reference with 2.49–2.51 V output, 6 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and 150 ppm long-term stability. External reference is optional and only needed when higher initial accuracy or custom voltage levels are required; the internal reference eliminates BOM components and improves thermal tracking.
How does the AD7656BSTZ-1 achieve simultaneous sampling across six channels?
The AD7656BSTZ-1 uses three dedicated CONVST inputs (A, B, C), each triggering two independent ADCs: CONVST A samples V1/V2, CONVST B samples V3/V4, and CONVST C samples V5/V6. This architecture guarantees sub-4 ns aperture delay matching between paired channels and eliminates time-skew errors in multichannel synchronized acquisition.
Can the AD7656BSTZ-1 operate with a 3.3 V digital interface?
Yes-the VDRIVE pin accepts 2.7 V to 5.25 V, allowing direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers or FPGAs. Logic thresholds scale with VDRIVE (VINH = 0.7×VDRIVE, VINL = 0.3×VDRIVE), and output drivers meet 3.3 V-compatible VOH/VOL specs-enabling seamless integration without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the purpose of the REFCAPA, REFCAPB, and REFCAPC pins on the AD7656BSTZ-1?
REFCAPA, REFCAPB, and REFCAPC are dedicated decoupling terminals for the internal reference buffers driving each ADC pair (V1/V2, V3/V4, V5/V6). Each must be connected to AGND with a 1 µF capacitor-this local decoupling suppresses reference noise coupling between channels and maintains the −100 dB channel-to-channel isolation specification.
