Product details
Overview
AD7828BRZ from Analog Devices is an 8-channel, 8-bit LC2MOS successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter with built-in track-and-hold, single 5 V supply operation, ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error, and 2.5 µs per-channel conversion time. It digitizes full-scale 10 kHz sinusoidal signals (157 mV/µs slew rate) across all eight inputs without external sample-and-hold circuitry, targeting real-time data acquisition in industrial control and instrumentation systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7828BRZ datasheet, AD7828BRZ pinout, AD7828BRZ application, or AD7828BRZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-channel multiplexed architecture, Mode 0/Mode 1 microprocessor interface flexibility, open-drain RDY output requiring external pull-up, and compatibility with Z80, MC68000, and TMS32010 buses without clock generation.
Technical Context
The AD7828BRZ implements a half-flash conversion architecture using two 4-bit flash ADCs-one for MSBs and one for LSBs-driven by an internal 4-bit DAC that reconstructs and subtracts the MSB approximation from the input. This eliminates need for external clocking and enables deterministic 2.5 µs conversion time per channel.
Its analog input structure inherently performs sampling and holding during the first ~1 µs of conversion, allowing stable 1/2 LSB measurement of 10 kHz signals. The device supports fully differential reference inputs (VREF(+) and VREF(–)), enabling ratiometric operation, offset input ranges, and adjustable full-scale spans down to 2 V.

Pinout & Package
AD7828BRZ is packaged in a 28-lead plastic DIP (N-28) with 0.6" body width, 0.100" lead pitch, and through-hole mounting. Pin 1 identifier is located at top-left corner when viewed from top with notch facing up.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN1–AIN8 | Analog Input Channels | Eight single-ended inputs selectable via A0–A2 address lines; support 0 V to 5 V unipolar or ±4 V bipolar (with external op amp) |
| A0, A1, A2 | Multiplexer Address Inputs | Binary-encoded channel selection (A2 only active on AD7828); latched on rising edge of RD in Mode 1 |

| INT | Interrupt Output | Active-low pulse signaling end of conversion; returns high on rising edge of CS or RD |
| DB0–DB7 | Data Bus Outputs | Three-state TTL-compatible outputs delivering 8-bit natural binary result; high-impedance until conversion completes |
| VREF(+), VREF(–) | Differential Reference Inputs | Define zero-to-full-scale span; support ratiometric sensing and programmable gain via reference scaling |
| VDD, GND | Power Supply | Single 5 V supply with decoupling recommended (47 µF + 0.1 µF per datasheet Figure 5) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-channel, 8-bit ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7828LN | Same architecture and pinout; commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) and ±1/2 LSB error spec | Suitable for lab equipment or consumer-grade instruments where extended temperature operation is unnecessary | Select AD7828LN when cost sensitivity outweighs industrial environmental requirements and full –40°C to +85°C qualification is not mandated. |
| MAX1138CPI+ | Successive-approximation architecture; 8-channel, 8-bit; 3.3 V or 5 V supply; no built-in track-and-hold | Requires external S/H for >1 kHz signals; lower power (25 mW) but higher external component count | Choose MAX1138CPI+ only if system already includes precision S/H circuitry and 3.3 V supply dominance justifies redesign effort. |
Compared with AD7828LN, the AD7828BRZ provides guaranteed operation at –40°C ambient and tighter long-term stability in thermal cycling environments; compared with MAX1138CPI+, it eliminates external S/H components and associated layout complexity while delivering identical resolution and comparable conversion speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog input frequency supported by the AD7828BRZ without external sample-and-hold?
The AD7828BRZ supports full-scale 10 kHz sinusoidal inputs (157 mV/µs slew rate) without external sample-and-hold due to its inherent track-and-hold function active during the first ~1 µs of conversion. This capability applies to all eight channels simultaneously, enabling real-time multi-sensor acquisition in industrial control applications where the AD7828BRZ serves as the primary analog front-end.
Does the AD7828BRZ require an external clock signal for conversion?
No, the AD7828BRZ does not require an external clock signal. Its half-flash conversion architecture uses internal timing controlled solely by CS and RD strobes, eliminating clock generation circuitry and reducing EMI susceptibility. This simplifies system design and ensures deterministic 2.5 µs conversion time per channel in both Mode 0 and Mode 1 operation of the AD7828BRZ.
How does the AD7828BRZ handle reference voltage configuration for bipolar input ranges?
The AD7828BRZ supports bipolar operation via its fully differential VREF(+) and VREF(–) inputs. When used with an external op-amp signal conditioner like the AD544 (as shown in datasheet Figure 12), it achieves ±4 V input range with complementary offset binary output coding. The AD7828BRZ itself does not generate bias-it relies on external circuitry to shift and scale the analog input relative to the reference terminals.
What is the purpose of the RDY pin on the AD7828BRZ, and how must it be connected?
The RDY pin on the AD7828BRZ is an open-drain status output that goes low when CS falls and returns to high-impedance when conversion completes and valid data appears on DB0–DB7. It requires an external 5 kΩ pull-up resistor to VDD (per datasheet Figure 14) to drive microprocessor WAIT inputs. Leaving RDY unconnected or tying it directly to GND disables Mode 0 ready signaling and forces use of Mode 1 operation for the AD7828BRZ.
Can the AD7828BRZ operate with a 3.3 V digital interface while using a 5 V analog supply?
No-the AD7828BRZ is specified for single 5 V supply operation only. Its digital inputs (CS, RD, A0–A2) require VIH ≥ 2.4 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, and outputs (DB0–DB7, INT, RDY) are TTL-compatible with VOH ≥ 4.0 V at 360 µA. Interfacing to 3.3 V microcontrollers requires level-shifting buffers; the AD7828BRZ does not support mixed-voltage I/O or 3.3 V core operation.
