Product details
Overview
AD7828TQ from Analog Devices is an 8-channel, 8-bit LC2MOS successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter with built-in track/hold, single 5 V supply operation, ±1 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 rugged industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7828TQ datasheet, AD7828TQ pinout, AD7828TQ application, or AD7828TQ equivalent, key selection considerations include its extended temperature range (–55°C to +125°C), Q-28 ceramic DIP package, differential reference input flexibility (0 V to 5 V span), and Mode 0/Mode 1 microprocessor interface compatibility with Z80, MC68000, and TMS32010 architectures.
Technical Context
The AD7828TQ implements a half-flash conversion architecture using two 4-bit flash ADCs - one for MSBs and one for LSBs - with an internal 4-bit DAC generating the analog residue for LSB conversion. This eliminates the need for an external clock signal and enables deterministic timing via CS/RD control only.
Its analog input structure inherently provides sample-and-hold functionality: the selected channel is tracked for ~1 µs after conversion start, and the value at that instant determines the final 8-bit result. Input leakage is ±3 µA max, and input capacitance is 45 pF, requiring source impedance ≤100 Ω for full accuracy.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8 bits - delivers 256 discrete digital codes over full-scale input range |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1 LSB max - includes offset, full-scale, and linearity errors; no user trimming required |
| Conversion Time | 2.5 µs per channel (Mode 0) - sets maximum per-channel sampling rate at 50 kHz for AD7828 |
| Analog Input Bandwidth | 10 kHz full-scale - supports direct digitization of 10 kHz sine waves without external S/H |
| Supply Voltage | 5 V ±5% - single-supply operation simplifies power design; IDD = 16 mA max at TMIN/TMAX |
| Reference Input Range | VREF(–) to VREF(+) - fully differential; supports ratiometric measurement and offset input spans |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended military/aerospace environments per /883B processing |
Pinout & Package
AD7828TQ is supplied in a 28-lead hermetic Cerdip (Q-28) package with 0.6" wide DIP footprint, glass-sealed ceramic body, and tin/lead-plated leads compliant with MIL-M-38510. Pin 1 is identified by dot or notch; leads are center-aligned with 0.100" pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN1–AIN8 | Analog input channels | Eight single-ended inputs; multiplexed under A2/A1/A0 address control; each accepts 0 V to 5 V referenced to VREF(–) |
| A0, A1, A2 | Multiplexer address inputs | 3-bit binary select for channel; A2 is AD7828-only; latched on rising edge of RD in Mode 1 |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; initiates conversion when pulled low with RD in Mode 0; controls latch timing in Mode 1 |
| RD | Read strobe | Active-low control; triggers conversion start (Mode 0) or latches address and reads prior result (Mode 1) |
| RDY | Ready indicator | Open-drain output; goes high-impedance at end of conversion to signal data validity on DB0–DB7 |
| INT | Interrupt output | Active-low; asserts at conversion completion; returns high on rising edge of CS or RD |
| DB0–DB7 | Three-state data outputs | 8-bit parallel natural binary output; driven only after conversion completes; compatible with TTL/CMOS logic |
| VREF(+), VREF(–) | Differential reference inputs | Define zero-to-full-scale range; support ratiometric sensing and programmable span (e.g., 2.5 V ref → 9.77 mV/LSB) |
| VDD, GND | Power supply | Single 5 V supply; 450 mW max power dissipation at 75°C; derates 6 mW/°C above 75°C |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| 8-channel multiplexed input | Reduces board space and component count vs. discrete single-channel ADCs; eliminates external MUX IC |
| Built-in track/hold function | Enables accurate digitization of 10 kHz full-scale signals without external S/H circuitry or layout complexity |
| No external clock required | Half-flash architecture uses only CS/RD timing - simplifies system timing design and reduces EMI sources |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7828CQ | Same architecture and pinout; rated for –40°C to +85°C (industrial grade); ±1/2 LSB error option available | Suitable for commercial/industrial environments without extreme thermal stress; lower cost than T-grade | Select AD7828CQ when operating temperature stays above –40°C and tighter accuracy (±1/2 LSB) is required |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit SAR ADC; SPI interface; 200 kSPS; single 3 V or 5 V supply; no built-in track/hold; requires external clock | Higher resolution but serial interface increases CPU overhead; lacks inherent S/H for >10 kHz signals | Choose ADS7822U only if 12-bit resolution is mandatory and system can accommodate external S/H + clock generation |
Compared with AD7828CQ, AD7828TQ trades ±1/2 LSB accuracy for guaranteed –55°C to +125°C operation and hermetic packaging; versus ADS7822U, it offers deterministic parallel interface timing and integrated track/hold at the cost of resolution and serial bus simplicity.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the AD7828TQ?
The AD7828TQ is rated for operation from –55°C to +125°C and is processed to MIL-STD-883 Class B requirements. This extended range is achieved through hermetic Q-28 Cerdip packaging and rigorous screening, making AD7828TQ suitable for downhole tools, jet engine controls, and space-qualified subsystems where ambient extremes exceed commercial or industrial grade limits.
Does the AD7828TQ require an external clock signal?
No, the AD7828TQ does not require an external clock signal. Its half-flash conversion architecture uses only the CS and RD control lines to initiate and time conversions. The internal timing is self-contained, eliminating clock distribution, jitter concerns, and associated layout complexity - a key advantage over SAR or sigma-delta ADCs requiring external clocks.
How does the AD7828TQ handle analog input signals above 10 kHz?
The AD7828TQ's built-in track/hold function guarantees accurate digitization only for full-scale signals up to 10 kHz (157 mV/µs slew rate). For higher-frequency inputs, an external sample-and-hold amplifier must be used ahead of the ADC input to freeze the signal during conversion. The AD7828TQ itself does not perform anti-aliasing filtering - that remains the responsibility of external passive or active filters.
Can the AD7828TQ operate with a reference voltage less than 5 V?
Yes, the AD7828TQ supports fully differential reference inputs (VREF(+) and VREF(–)), allowing any reference span from 0 V up to VDD. Using a 2.5 V reference, for example, yields 9.77 mV/LSB resolution instead of 19.5 mV/LSB at 5 V - increasing sensitivity for low-amplitude signals while maintaining the same ±1 LSB error specification relative to the chosen full-scale range.
What microprocessor interfaces are supported by the AD7828TQ?
The AD7828TQ supports both Mode 0 (WAIT-state) and Mode 1 (non-WAIT) microprocessor interfaces. It has been validated with Z80 (using RDY to assert WAIT), MC68000 (using INT to assert DTACK), and TMS32010 (using dual-read protocol). Address decoding is handled externally; the device appears as memory-mapped or port-mapped peripheral depending on system architecture.
