Product details
Overview
AD7816AR-REEL from Analog Devices is a 10-bit, single-channel analog-to-digital converter with integrated temperature sensor, 9 μs conversion time for voltage inputs and 27 μs for temperature sensing, on-chip 2.5 V reference (±1%), and −55°C to +125°C operating range. It serves as a compact ambient temperature and voltage monitoring solution in battery-powered industrial sensors and embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7816AR-REEL datasheet, AD7816AR-REEL pinout, AD7816AR-REEL application, or AD7816AR-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include its single-ended input architecture, auto power-down at 4 μW (10 SPS), overtemperature indicator (OTI) output, and compatibility with SPI/MICROWIRE/8051 serial interfaces - all critical for low-power thermal-aware data acquisition.
Technical Context
The AD7816AR-REEL implements a successive approximation ADC core with capacitor DAC architecture, inherent track-and-hold functionality, and an internal clock oscillator - eliminating need for external timing components. Its temperature sensor is accessed via Channel 0 and delivers 0.25°C resolution with ±2°C accuracy from −40°C to +85°C using the on-chip reference.
Conversion is initiated by a falling edge on CONVST; BUSY goes high during conversion and OTI asserts low when temperature exceeds the programmable overtemperature register threshold. Serial communication uses a flexible 3-wire interface (SCLK, DIN/OUT, RD/WR) supporting read/write operations with address register selection.

Pinout & Package
AD7816AR-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package (width 3.9 mm, body height 1.75 mm), pin-compatible with AD7818 and optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CONVST | Convert Start Input | Falling-edge-triggered signal initiating conversion; also controls automatic power-down when held low post-conversion. |
| BUSY | Conversion Status Output | Active-high open-drain signal indicating active conversion - used for interrupt-driven MCU synchronization. |
| OTI | Overtemperature Indicator Output | Active-low signal asserting when Channel 0 (temperature sensor) reading exceeds OTR register value - enables hardware thermal shutdown. |
| GND | Analog/Digital Ground | Common reference for both analog and digital sections - requires single-point grounding to minimize noise coupling. |
| VIN | Analog Input Channel | Single-ended input referenced to GND, accepting 0 V to 2.5 V signals - no external buffer needed for low-impedance sources. |
| VDD | Positive Supply | 2.7 V–5.5 V supply powering entire device - decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of pin for stable operation. |
| DIN/OUT | Serial Data I/O | Tri-state bidirectional pin for SPI-like data transfer - reduces pin count vs. separate DOUT/DIN implementations. |
| SCLK | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all serial transfers - data latched on rising edge, output valid on falling edge. |
| RD/WR | Read/Write Control | Logic-high = read mode (data out), logic-low = write mode (control byte in) - defines direction of DIN/OUT traffic. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 10-bit temperature-sensing ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7818ARZ-REEL7 | Identical pinout, identical specs, same SOIC-8 package - differs only in tape-and-reel packaging and RoHS compliance marking. | No functional difference; suitable for drop-in replacement where lead-free compliance is required. | Select AD7818ARZ-REEL7 when RoHS-compliant manufacturing and full traceability per JEDEC J-STD-020 are mandatory. |
| MAX1270BCPP+ | 12-bit resolution, 10 μs conversion, external reference required, no integrated temperature sensor - higher precision but added BOM cost and layout area. | Used where voltage measurement accuracy >10-bit is prioritized over thermal sensing integration. | Choose MAX1270BCPP+ only if system requires ≥12-bit voltage resolution and can accommodate external reference and discrete temperature sensing. |
Compared with AD7816AR-REEL, AD7818ARZ-REEL7 offers identical electrical and thermal performance with certified lead-free finish, while MAX1270BCPP+ trades integrated temperature sensing for higher voltage resolution and external reference flexibility - making AD7816AR-REEL optimal for cost- and space-sensitive thermal-aware data acquisition.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the AD7816AR-REEL?
The AD7816AR-REEL is a 10-bit analog-to-digital converter with an integrated temperature sensor, designed to digitize single-ended analog voltages (0 V to 2.5 V) and measure ambient temperature via Channel 0. Its on-chip 2.5 V reference, 9 μs voltage conversion time, and OTI output make AD7816AR-REEL ideal for compact, low-power thermal-aware monitoring in industrial and automotive applications.
Does the AD7816AR-REEL require an external reference voltage?
No, the AD7816AR-REEL includes an on-chip 2.5 V reference with ±1% initial accuracy and 30 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, eliminating the need for external reference components. The device operates fully autonomously with only VDD, GND, and serial interface connections - simplifying design and reducing bill-of-materials cost for AD7816AR-REEL implementations.
How does the overtemperature indicator (OTI) work on the AD7816AR-REEL?
The OTI pin on the AD7816AR-REEL asserts logic low when the digitized temperature reading from Channel 0 exceeds the value stored in the internal 8-bit overtemperature register (OTR). This hardware-level comparison occurs independently of the host MCU, enabling immediate thermal fault response. The OTI signal resets after a serial read operation completes - ensuring AD7816AR-REEL supports deterministic overtemperature handling.
What serial interface protocols does the AD7816AR-REEL support?
The AD7816AR-REEL supports SPI, MICROWIRE, and Intel 8051-compatible 3-wire serial interfaces using SCLK, RD/WR, and bidirectional DIN/OUT pins. It requires no mode configuration - automatically adapts to host timing and protocol conventions. This flexibility allows seamless integration with diverse microcontrollers without custom driver development for AD7816AR-REEL communication.
What is the power consumption profile of the AD7816AR-REEL at different throughput rates?
The AD7816AR-REEL consumes 4 μW at 10 SPS, 48.8 μW at 1 kSPS, and 434 μW at 10 kSPS under VDD = 3 V - enabled by automatic power-down after each conversion. In full shutdown (power-down mode), current drops to 4.5 μA at 3 V. This scalable power profile makes AD7816AR-REEL suitable for both burst-mode sensing and continuous monitoring applications.
