Product details
Overview
AD7691BCPZ-R2 from Analog Devices is an 18-bit, charge redistribution successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with true differential input, 250 kSPS throughput, ±0.75 LSB typical INL, and operation over −55°C to +105°C. It delivers 102 dB dynamic range and 101 dB SINAD at 1 kHz with 5 V reference, targeting high-precision data acquisition in harsh environments.
For engineers reviewing the AD7691BCPZ-R2 datasheet, AD7691BCPZ-R2 pinout, AD7691BCPZ-R2 application, or AD7691BCPZ-R2 equivalent, key selection considerations include its military-grade temperature range, no pipeline delay, SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface, daisy-chain capability, and 1.8 V–5 V logic compatibility via separate VIO supply.
Technical Context
The AD7691BCPZ-R2 employs a charge redistribution SAR architecture with internal conversion clock and zero-latency sampling on the CNV rising edge. Its differential input accepts ±VREF full-scale range or unipolar 0 V to VREF, with common-mode rejection of 65 dB at 250 kHz and 2 MHz −3 dB input bandwidth.
It supports two interface modes-CS mode (with optional busy indicator) and chain mode (for multi-ADC daisy-chaining)-both synchronized to SCK and compatible with 1.8 V/2.5 V/3 V/5 V logic levels via dedicated VIO. Power scales linearly with throughput: 1.35 mW at 100 kSPS (2.5 V), 10.6 mW at 250 kSPS (5 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 18-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full code coverage for precision measurement systems. |
| Throughput | 250 kSPS maximum (VDD ≥ 4.5 V) - enables real-time capture of fast transients in seismic or instrumentation applications. |
| INL | ±0.75 LSB typical (−40°C to +85°C); −2.7/+2 LSB min/max (−55°C to +105°C) - defines absolute accuracy across extended military temperature range. |
| SINAD | 101 dB typical at fIN = 1 kHz, VREF = 5 V - supports >16.5 effective bits for low-noise signal conditioning. |
| Dynamic Range | 102 dB typical; 125 dB oversampled at 1 kSPS - enables high-resolution DC and low-frequency AC measurements with digital filtering. |
| Power Dissipation | 1.35 mW at 100 kSPS / 2.5 V; 10.6 mW at 250 kSPS / 5 V - allows scalable power budgeting in battery- or thermally constrained systems. |
| Reference Input | 0.5 V to VDD (up to 5.25 V); load current ≤60 µA at 250 kSPS - permits flexible external reference selection without buffering overhead. |
Pinout & Package
AD7691BCPZ-R2 is housed in a 10-lead MSOP (RM-10) package per JEDEC MO-187-BA, with 0.5 mm pitch, 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body, and exposed pad for thermal performance. Pin 1 identifier located at top-left corner with 15° max chamfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 REF | Analog Reference Input | Accepts external reference from 0.5 V to VDD; requires local 10 µF decoupling for stable ADC accuracy. |
| 2 VDD | Analog/Digital Core Supply | 2.3 V to 5.25 V single supply; powers internal SAR core, reference buffer, and logic circuits. |
| 3 IN+ | Differential Positive Input | True differential input; swings 0 V to VREF centered at VREF/2, 180° out-of-phase with IN−. |
| 4 IN− | Differential Negative Input | Complements IN+; enables rejection of common-mode noise and even-order harmonics. |
| 5 GND | Power Ground | Common return for VDD, REF, and analog inputs; must be low-impedance and separated from digital ground where possible. |
| 6 CNV | Convert Control Input | Rising edge initiates conversion and selects interface mode (CS or chain); also enables SDO in CS mode when low. |
| 7 SDO | Serial Data Output | 18-bit twos-complement output synchronized to SCK falling edge; tri-state controlled by CNV/SDI in CS mode. |
| 8 SCK | Serial Clock Input | Drives data shift-out; timing varies with VIO level (15–40 ns period) to support mixed-voltage host interfaces. |
| 9 SDI | Serial Data Input | Configures interface mode on CNV edge (low = chain, high = CS); in chain mode, passes upstream data with 18-cycle delay. |
| 10 VIO | Digital I/O Supply | 1.8 V to VDD + 0.3 V; sets logic thresholds for SDI/SCK/SDO, enabling interoperability with diverse microcontrollers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | Immediate data availability after conversion completes - eliminates latency-induced phase errors in closed-loop control. |
| Daisy-chain capability | Single 3-wire bus supports multiple AD7691BCPZ-R2 units - reduces PCB routing complexity and host GPIO count in multi-channel systems. |
| Optional busy indicator | SDO asserts active-low busy signal during conversion in CS mode - simplifies timing management without polling or interrupts. |
| Military temperature range | −55°C to +105°C operation with controlled manufacturing baseline - meets AQEC requirements for defense/aerospace deployments. |
| Low standby current | 1 nA typical at 25°C - enables ultra-low-power wake-on-event architectures in battery-powered remote sensors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-precision SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7690BCPZ-R2 | Pin-for-pin compatible 18-bit SAR ADC; identical package and interface but rated only for −40°C to +85°C industrial range. | Lacks military temperature qualification and enhanced product change notification; unsuitable for defense/aerospace deployments. | Select AD7690BCPZ-R2 only for cost-sensitive commercial applications where extended temperature operation is not required. |
| AD7693BCPZ-R2 | 16-bit SAR ADC in same 10-lead MSOP; shares pinout, interface, and power architecture but with reduced resolution and INL (±1.5 LSB). | Lower resolution limits dynamic range to ~96 dB; appropriate for applications prioritizing speed/power over ultimate precision. | Choose AD7693BCPZ-R2 when 16-bit accuracy suffices and system-level SNR budget allows 6 dB degradation versus AD7691BCPZ-R2. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the AD7691BCPZ-R2?
The AD7691BCPZ-R2 is specified for operation from −55°C to +105°C, meeting AQEC standards for defense and aerospace applications. This extended range is achieved through controlled manufacturing baseline, single assembly/test site, and enhanced product change notification - distinguishing it from commercial-grade variants like the AD7690BCPZ-R2.
Does the AD7691BCPZ-R2 require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the AD7691BCPZ-R2 requires an external reference applied to the REF pin, which accepts voltages from 0.5 V up to VDD (max 5.25 V). The device does not include an internal reference; using a stable, low-noise external reference such as the ADR4550 or REF195 is essential to achieve specified INL and SINAD performance.
Can multiple AD7691BCPZ-R2 devices be connected on a single serial bus?
Yes, the AD7691BCPZ-R2 supports daisy-chain configuration via its SDI and SDO pins. When SDI is low at the CNV rising edge, the device enters chain mode: conversion results from multiple AD7691BCPZ-R2 units are serialized onto one SDO line with 18-cycle inter-device delay, minimizing host interface resource usage.
What logic voltage levels does the AD7691BCPZ-R2 support for digital communication?
The AD7691BCPZ-R2 supports 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, and 5 V logic interfaces via its dedicated VIO supply pin. Digital input thresholds scale with VIO (VIH = 0.7 × VIO, VIL = 0.3 × VIO), and SDO output swing is referenced to VIO - enabling direct connection to mixed-voltage microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry.
How does power consumption scale with throughput in the AD7691BCPZ-R2?
Power dissipation in the AD7691BCPZ-R2 scales linearly with throughput: 1.35 mW at 100 kSPS / 2.5 V, 4.24 mW at 100 kSPS / 5 V, and 10.6 mW at 250 kSPS / 5 V. At ultra-low rates (100 SPS), power drops to 1.4 µW - supporting energy harvesting or battery-life-critical applications.
