Product details
Overview
AD7689ACPZ from Analog Devices is an 8-channel, 16-bit, 250 kSPS successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with integrated multiplexer, internal 2.5 V/4.096 V reference, temperature sensor, and SPI-compatible serial interface. It operates from a single 2.3 V to 5.5 V supply and supports unipolar, differential, and pseudobipolar input configurations for precision multichannel data acquisition in space-constrained industrial and medical systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7689ACPZ datasheet, AD7689ACPZ pinout, AD7689ACPZ application, or AD7689ACPZ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated package mapping (20-lead LFCSP), confirmed channel sequencing behavior, real-world dynamic performance (92.5 dB SINAD at 20 kHz), and precise thermal drift metrics (±1 ppm/°C gain/offset) - all directly traceable to Rev. K datasheet.
Technical Context
The AD7689ACPZ implements a charge redistribution SAR architecture with no pipeline delay, enabling immediate result availability after conversion. Its 8-channel low-crosstalk multiplexer supports configurable input modes (single-ended, GND-sense differential, pseudobipolar) and integrates a selectable 1-pole filter and busy indicator for deterministic timing control.
It features dual-reference capability: internal 2.5 V or 4.096 V reference (with ±10 ppm/°C drift) or external buffered/unbuffered reference up to VDD. The dedicated TEMP channel provides 1 mV/°C output referenced to 283 mV at 25°C, usable without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full code coverage across full temperature range (−40°C to +125°C). |
| Throughput | 250 kSPS at VDD ≥ 4.5 V - enables real-time sampling of fast transients in power line monitoring or seismic systems. |
| SINAD | 92.5 dB at 20 kHz (VREF = 5 V) - supports >15-bit effective resolution for high-fidelity ECG/EKG signal capture. |
| INL | ±0.4 LSB typical (±1.5 LSB max) - ensures <±23 ppm FSR linearity error critical for closed-loop process control calibration. |
| Power Dissipation | 12.5 mW at 5 V/250 kSPS - balances speed and efficiency for battery-powered portable instrumentation. |
| Standby Current | 50 nA - enables ultra-low-power sleep mode in always-on condition monitoring nodes. |
| Channel Count | 8 analog inputs (IN0–IN7) with COM reference - supports simultaneous multi-sensor acquisition without external MUX. |
Pinout & Package
AD7689ACPZ is housed in a 20-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP) with exposed pad (EPAD) for thermal and mechanical stability. Pin functions are electrically validated per Rev. K datasheet Figures 5 and Table 8.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (Pins 1, 20) | Core power supply | 2.3 V–5.5 V analog/digital rail; min. 4.5 V required when using internal 4.096 V reference - dictates system voltage architecture. |
| REF (Pin 2) | Reference I/O | Outputs selectable 2.5 V or 4.096 V internal reference, or buffers external REFIN - eliminates need for discrete reference IC in compact designs. |
| REFIN (Pin 3) | Internal ref output / buffer input | Provides unbuffered bandgap (2.5 V) for decoupling; accepts 0.5 V–(VDD − 0.5 V) external source when buffer enabled - enables flexible reference sourcing. |
| COM (Pin 10) | Common-mode reference | Defines 0 V or VREF/2 common point for all 8 channels - essential for differential and pseudobipolar measurement accuracy. |
| CNV (Pin 11) | Conversion trigger | Rising edge initiates conversion; held low enables busy indicator - allows synchronous sampling and host timing coordination. |
| DIN/SCK/SDO (Pins 12–14) | SPI interface | Full-duplex 16-bit MSB-first serial interface compatible with SPI/MICROWIRE/QSPI/DSP - simplifies FPGA/microcontroller integration. |
| VIO (Pin 15) | Digital I/O supply | 1.8 V–5.5 V logic-level rail independent of VDD - supports mixed-voltage host systems (e.g., 1.8 V MCU + 5 V analog domain). |
| IN0–IN7 (Pins 6, 7, 8, 9, 16, 17, 18, 19) | Analog inputs | Eight fully differential-capable inputs with <−125 dB crosstalk at 100 kHz - preserves signal integrity in high-density sensor arrays. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 8-channel MUX | Eliminates external analog switch ICs and associated layout complexity while maintaining <−125 dB inter-channel crosstalk at 100 kHz. |
| Selectable 1-pole filter | Reduces aliasing and noise before sampling without external RC components - improves SNR in noisy industrial environments. |
| On-chip temperature sensor | Delivers calibrated 283 mV @ 25°C with 1 mV/°C slope on dedicated INx channel - enables system-level thermal compensation without sensors or ADC resources. |
| No pipeline delay (SAR) | Provides deterministic, zero-latency conversion results - critical for time-critical control loops and event-triggered acquisition. |
| Low-power standby mode | 50 nA quiescent current enables rapid wake-up from deep sleep - extends battery life in portable diagnostic equipment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multichannel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7699 | 8-channel, 16-bit, 500 kSPS; higher throughput but requires external reference and lacks internal temperature sensor. | Better suited for high-speed data logging where external reference stability is controlled; not ideal for self-contained thermal-aware designs. | Choose AD7699 only if >250 kSPS is mandatory and reference design overhead is acceptable. |
| AD7949 | 8-channel, 14-bit, 250 kSPS; lower resolution, no internal reference, wider supply range (2.3 V–5.5 V), lower power (7 mW). | Targeted at cost-sensitive, lower-precision applications like basic sensor fusion where 14-bit resolution suffices. | Select AD7949 when 16-bit linearity and internal reference are noncritical and BOM cost is primary constraint. |
Compared with AD7689ACPZ, AD7699 trades integrated reference and temperature sensing for speed, while AD7949 sacrifices resolution and integration for cost and power - making AD7689ACPZ optimal for precision, self-contained, thermally aware multichannel acquisition.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature specification for AD7689ACPZ?
The AD7689ACPZ is qualified for operation from −40°C to +125°C, with full performance specifications guaranteed across this extended temperature range per the AD7689C grade in the Rev. K datasheet. This makes AD7689ACPZ suitable for under-hood automotive sensors, downhole oilfield tools, and industrial controllers exposed to extreme ambient conditions.
Does AD7689ACPZ require an external reference, or can it operate with its internal reference?
AD7689ACPZ can operate with its internal reference - users may select either 2.5 V or 4.096 V output via configuration register. When using the internal 4.096 V reference, VDD must be ≥ 4.5 V. No external reference is required unless higher accuracy or lower drift than ±10 ppm/°C is needed, in which case a precision external reference may be applied to the REF pin.
How many analog input channels does AD7689ACPZ support, and what input configurations are available?
AD7689ACPZ supports 8 analog input channels (IN0 through IN7), configurable as unipolar single-ended, differential (GND sense), or pseudobipolar. All channels share a common-mode reference (COM) pin, enabling flexible sensor interfacing - for example, measuring thermocouples against cold-junction compensation or strain gauges in Wheatstone bridge configurations.
What digital interface standards is AD7689ACPZ compatible with?
AD7689ACPZ features a hardware SPI-compatible serial interface supporting standard SPI, MICROWIRE, QSPI, and DSP protocols. It uses separate VIO (1.8 V–5.5 V) and VDD supplies, allowing direct connection to 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V microcontrollers without level shifters. Data is transmitted MSB-first in straight binary (unipolar) or twos complement (bipolar) format.
Is the internal temperature sensor in AD7689ACPZ calibrated, and how is it accessed?
Yes, the internal temperature sensor in AD7689ACPZ is factory-calibrated, providing a linear 1 mV/°C output centered at 283 mV at 25°C. It appears as a dedicated analog input channel (TEMP) accessible via the same 8-channel MUX - no external components or calibration coefficients are needed to obtain accurate die temperature readings for system thermal management.
