Product details
Overview
AD7656BSTZ-REEL 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, 86.5 dB SNR at 50 kHz, and integrated 2.5 V reference - deployed in power line monitoring systems for synchronized voltage/current phasor capture.
For engineers reviewing the AD7656BSTZ-REEL datasheet, AD7656BSTZ-REEL pinout, AD7656BSTZ-REEL application, or AD7656BSTZ-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include simultaneous sampling accuracy across six channels, iCMOS-based high-voltage analog input tolerance (±16.5 V), low 140 mW operational power, and SPI/parallel/daisy-chain interface flexibility.
Technical Context
The AD7656BSTZ-REEL implements six independent 16-bit successive approximation register (SAR) cores on a single iCMOS die, enabling true simultaneous sampling via three dedicated CONVST pins (A/B/C) that trigger paired channels (V1/V2, V3/V4, V5/V6). Its track-and-hold supports 12 MHz full-power bandwidth and <4 ns aperture delay matching between channels.
It integrates on-chip reference buffers and accepts external 2.5 V/3 V references while delivering 2.49–2.51 V output; logic interface operates at 2.7–5.25 V (VDRIVE), with parallel, serial (SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible), and daisy-chain modes - all supporting 250 kSPS sustained throughput in parallel mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - guarantees monotonicity and no missing codes over full temperature range. |
| Sampling Rate | 250 kSPS - maximum sustained throughput in parallel interface mode with full 16-bit accuracy. |
| SNR | 86.5 dB at 50 kHz - enables >13.5 effective number of bits (ENOB) for precision AC signal acquisition. |
| Analog Input Range | ±10 V or ±5 V (pin/software-selectable) - supports direct connection to industrial sensor outputs without external scaling. |
| Reference | Integrated 2.5 V ±0.5% reference with 6 ppm/°C tempco - eliminates need for external reference in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Power Dissipation | 140 mW at 250 kSPS - achieved via iCMOS process enabling high-voltage operation with low quiescent current. |
| Channel Isolation | −100 dB - prevents crosstalk between simultaneously sampled channels up to 100 kHz. |
Pinout & Package
AD7656BSTZ-REEL is housed in a 64-lead LQFP (10 mm × 10 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with separate analog/digital ground planes and dedicated decoupling pins for reference buffers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1–V6 | Analog Input Channels | Six single-ended, high-impedance (±1 µA leakage), true bipolar inputs supporting ±4×VREF (±10 V) or ±2×VREF (±5 V) ranges. |
| CONVST A/B/C | Conversion Start Control | Three independent TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs initiating simultaneous sampling on channel pairs (V1/V2, V3/V4, V5/V6). |
| REFCAPA/B/C | Reference Buffer Decoupling | Three dedicated pins requiring 10 µF + 100 nF AGND decoupling per ADC pair to stabilize internal reference buffers. |
| DB0–DB15 | Parallel Data Bus | 16-bit bidirectional data bus supporting multiplexed read/write; DB0–DB2 also serve as channel select lines in software mode. |
| CS/RD/WR | Parallel Interface Control | Standard microprocessor-style control: chip select, read strobe, write strobe - compatible with 8086/8051 timing. |
| SCLK/DOUT A/B/C | Serial Interface Signals | High-speed SPI-compatible interface with three independent DOUT lines enabling concurrent readout of three ADC pairs. |
| AGND/DGND | Ground Separation | 11 AGND and 2 DGND pins - must be tied at single point with ≤0.3 V potential difference to maintain DC accuracy and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Simultaneous Sampling Architecture | Six independent SAR cores with matched aperture delay (<4 ns) enable phase-coherent multi-channel acquisition for power quality analysis. |
| iCMOS Process Technology | Enables ±16.5 V analog supply rails (VDD/VSS) and true bipolar input operation in compact LQFP package - no external level-shifting required. |
| Flexible Interface Modes | Hardware-selectable parallel/serial/daisy-chain operation allows integration with legacy microcontrollers or modern FPGAs without protocol translation. |
| On-Chip Reference System | 2.5 V reference with 6 ppm/°C drift and 150 ppm long-term stability reduces BOM count and improves system-level temperature drift performance. |
| Low-Power Standby Mode | 100 µW max standby consumption (via STBY pin) enables rapid wake-up (<2 ms) for event-triggered sampling in energy-constrained applications. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7657BSTZ-REEL | 14-bit resolution, 81.5 dB SINAD min, identical pinout and interface - lower DC accuracy but reduced cost and power (140 mW → 140 mW same, but lower dynamic range). | Acceptable where 14-bit ENOB suffices (e.g., motor current monitoring without harmonic analysis). | Select AD7657BSTZ-REEL when system SNR requirements are ≤82 dB and cost optimization is prioritized over phase-coherent wideband fidelity. |
| AD7658BSTZ-REEL | 12-bit resolution, 73 dB SINAD min, same package and timing - optimized for higher throughput density rather than precision. | Suitable for high-channel-count, lower-accuracy applications like basic PLC I/O modules. | Choose AD7658BSTZ-REEL only when 12-bit resolution meets system linearity specs and simultaneous sampling of >4 channels is mandatory within space-constrained layouts. |
Compared with AD7656BSTZ-REEL, AD7657BSTZ-REEL trades 2-bit resolution for identical packaging and interface compatibility, while AD7658BSTZ-REEL further reduces resolution to 12 bits for cost-sensitive, high-volume industrial I/O - neither offers the 16-bit simultaneous fidelity required for IEEE 1159-compliant power quality analyzers.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the AD7656BSTZ-REEL?
The AD7656BSTZ-REEL achieves a maximum sustained throughput rate of 250 kSPS in parallel interface mode. This rate applies to all six channels operating simultaneously with full 16-bit resolution and specified AC/DC performance. Serial interface modes may reduce effective throughput due to data serialization overhead, but the core conversion engine remains capable of 250 kSPS per channel pair.
Does the AD7656BSTZ-REEL require an external reference?
No, the AD7656BSTZ-REEL includes an integrated 2.5 V reference with 2.49 V to 2.51 V output, 6 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and 150 ppm long-term stability. It can operate using this internal reference or accept an external 2.5 V/3 V source via the REFIN/REFOUT pin - eliminating external reference components in most applications unless tighter initial accuracy or lower drift is required.
How does the AD7656BSTZ-REEL support simultaneous sampling across six channels?
The AD7656BSTZ-REEL uses three dedicated CONVST inputs (A, B, C) to initiate conversions on three independent ADC pairs: CONVST A triggers V1/V2, CONVST B triggers V3/V4, and CONVST C triggers V5/V6. All six channels sample at the exact same instant, with aperture delay matching ≤4 ns - preserving phase coherence critical for power system phasor measurement units (PMUs) and motor control.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the AD7656BSTZ-REEL have?
The AD7656BSTZ-REEL is supplied in a 64-lead LQFP package (10 mm × 10 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with θJA = 45°C/W and θJC = 11°C/W. Its iCMOS process enables efficient thermal dissipation at 140 mW operational power, and the package supports standard lead-free reflow profiles up to 260°C - verified for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C, B grade).
Can the AD7656BSTZ-REEL interface directly with an FPGA or DSP?
Yes, the AD7656BSTZ-REEL supports direct interfacing with FPGAs and DSPs via its high-speed parallel or serial interfaces. The parallel mode is compatible with 8086/8051 timing, while the serial interface is SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible with daisy-chain capability - allowing multiple AD7656BSTZ-REEL devices to share one serial bus without additional glue logic.
