Product details
Overview
AD7829BRU-REEL7 from Analog Devices is an 8-bit, 2 MSPS, 8-channel parallel-output analog-to-digital converter with on-chip 2.5 V reference, 420 ns conversion time, and single-supply operation at 3 V ±10% or 5 V ±10%. It integrates track-and-hold, half-flash ADC architecture, and automatic power-down triggered by CONVST logic level at EOC assertion - used in high-speed data acquisition front ends for DSP systems and disk drive servo control.
For engineers reviewing the AD7829BRU-REEL7 datasheet, AD7829BRU-REEL7 pinout, AD7829BRU-REEL7 application, or AD7829BRU-REEL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include channel count (8 single-ended), conversion speed (2 MSPS), supply flexibility (3 V/5 V), input span adjustability via VMID, and parallel interface timing compatibility with 8051, PIC, and ADSP-21xx processors.
Technical Context
The AD7829BRU-REEL7 implements a two-stage half-flash ADC architecture: a 4-bit flash stage provides MSBs, followed by a second flash stage for LSBs, achieving full 8-bit resolution in ≤420 ns. Its track-and-hold acquires input within 200 ns and supports full-power bandwidth up to 10 MHz.
Channel selection is performed externally via A0–A2 address lines synchronized with RD; no internal register write is required. The CONVST pin serves dual function - initiating conversion on its falling edge and enabling automatic power-down when sampled low at EOC high - eliminating need for separate control logic in low-duty-cycle sampling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8-bit - guarantees monotonicity and no missing codes over full temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) |
| Max Sampling Rate | 2 MSPS - enables real-time capture of signals up to 10 MHz (Nyquist-limited) without aliasing in subsampling applications |
| Conversion Time | 420 ns max - defines minimum inter-conversion interval; allows ≥2.38 µs dead time for processor readout at full rate |
| Analog Input Channels | 8 single-ended - selectable via A0/A1/A2 pins; no software configuration needed for channel switching |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V ±10% or 5 V ±10% - supports mixed-voltage system integration without level-shifting circuitry |
| On-Chip Reference | 2.5 V ±50 mV - eliminates external reference component; usable as VREF IN/OUT with 100 µA max input current |
| Power Consumption | 12 mA max at 2 MSPS (3 V/5 V) - drops to 5 µA in power-down mode, reducing idle dissipation by >99% |
| INL / DNL | ±0.75 LSB max each - ensures accurate amplitude fidelity in closed-loop control and measurement applications |
Pinout & Package
AD7829BRU-REEL7 is housed in a 28-lead TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) with 0.65 mm pitch, moisture sensitivity level 3, and RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN1–VIN8 | Analog input channels | Eight independent single-ended inputs; input span automatically set to 2.5 V (5 V supply) or 2.0 V (3 V supply); centered via VMID voltage |
| CONVST | Convert start / power-down control | Falling edge initiates conversion and places T/H in hold mode; logic level sampled at EOC high determines auto power-down activation |
| EOC | End-of-conversion indicator | Active-low pulse (≥70 ns wide) signals completion; used to trigger microcontroller interrupt or latch data into external register |
| RD | Read strobe | Active-low signal enabling output drivers; data valid t9 = 10 ns (3 V) / 20 ns (5 V) after RD low; bus relinquished t10 = 5–20 ns after RD high |
| CS | Chip select | Active-low enable for parallel port; must be low with RD to drive DB0–DB7; allows shared data bus operation |
| A0–A2 | Channel address inputs | 3-bit binary code selects one of eight analog inputs prior to RD assertion; no internal latching required |
| DB0–DB7 | Parallel data outputs | 8-bit straight-binary output; high-impedance when RD/CS inactive; compatible with TTL/CMOS logic levels |
| VREF IN/OUT | Reference I/O | Supplies or sinks reference voltage; internal 2.5 V reference available here; external reference can override on-chip source |
| VMID | Input span centering | Bias voltage setting midpoint of analog input range (AGND to VDD); default = 1.25 V (5 V) or 1.0 V (3 V) when unconnected |
| VDD | Positive supply | Single supply input supporting 3 V ±10% or 5 V ±10%; powers analog and digital sections simultaneously |
| AGND / DGND | Analog/digital ground | Separate ground pins minimize noise coupling; recommended to tie together at single point near device |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 8-channel multiplexed input with hardware-selectable addressing | Eliminates need for external MUX control logic or firmware overhead; A0–A2 directly route VIN1–VIN8 to ADC core |
| Automatic power-down on conversion completion | Reduces average current to µA-level between conversions - critical for battery-powered data loggers and portable test equipment |
| Adjustable input span via VMID pin | Enables offset compensation for sensor front ends and single-supply op amp interfaces without external level-shifting components |
| 420 ns conversion time with 200 ns track-and-hold acquisition | Supports undersampling of RF IF signals up to 10 MHz while maintaining SNR ≥48 dB at 30 kHz input |
| On-chip 2.5 V reference with ±2% tolerance | Removes requirement for precision external reference IC, simplifying BOM and layout for cost-sensitive industrial DAQ modules |
| Flexible parallel interface with EOC pulse | Allows standalone operation without microprocessor handshake - EOC falling edge directly clocks external latch or triggers ISR |
Applications
| Disk Drive Servo Control | DSP-Based Data Acquisition |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit, multi-channel, parallel-output ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7825BRUZ-REEL7 | 4-channel version; identical 420 ns conversion time, same 3 V/5 V supply, but lacks A2 and VIN5–VIN8 pins | Suitable only where ≤4 analog inputs are required; smaller TSSOP-24 package reduces board area | Select when channel count reduction justifies simplified routing and lower pin-count interface |
| ADS820U | 8-bit, 2 MSPS, but uses serial SPI interface instead of parallel; no on-chip reference; requires external 2.5 V reference | Reduces PCB trace count and connector size; incompatible with existing parallel-bus microcontrollers without interface translation | Prefer for space-constrained designs where serial interface and external reference are acceptable trade-offs |
Compared with AD7829BRU-REEL7, AD7825BRUZ-REEL7 offers identical performance per channel but halves input count and package size, while ADS820U trades parallel simplicity for serial footprint reduction and external reference dependency - neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping high-speed 8-bit acquisition roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum input frequency supported by the AD7829BRU-REEL7 while maintaining specified SNR?
The AD7829BRU-REEL7 maintains ≥48 dB SNR for input frequencies up to 10 MHz, as verified under fIN = 30 kHz, fSAMPLE = 2 MHz conditions per datasheet Table 1. Its track-and-hold amplifier's full-power bandwidth is rated to 10 MHz, making it suitable for undersampling applications where high-frequency IF signals are captured below Nyquist rate.
Does the AD7829BRU-REEL7 require an external reference, or can it operate using its internal reference?
The AD7829BRU-REEL7 can operate using its internal 2.5 V reference, accessible at the VREF IN/OUT pin. When using the internal reference, this pin may be left unconnected or decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 µF capacitor. External reference is optional and only needed if tighter than ±2% tolerance or different voltage is required.
How does automatic power-down work on the AD7829BRU-REEL7, and what is its impact on power consumption?
At the end of conversion, the AD7829BRU-REEL7 samples the logic level on the CONVST pin. If CONVST is low when EOC goes high, the device enters power-down mode, reducing supply current from 12 mA (active) to 5 µA. This feature cuts average power significantly in burst-mode sampling, such as in servo control loops with intermittent acquisition windows.
What are the voltage ranges for analog inputs on the AD7829BRU-REEL7 when operating at 3 V versus 5 V supply?
At VDD = 3 V ±10%, the AD7829BRU-REEL7 supports 0 V to 2.0 V p-p input range centered at VMID = 1.0 V (default). At VDD = 5 V ±10%, it supports 0 V to 2.5 V p-p centered at VMID = 1.25 V (default). The VMID pin allows recentering the span anywhere between AGND and VDD to accommodate bipolar or offset-adjusted sensor outputs.
Is the AD7829BRU-REEL7 pin-compatible with earlier AD7822 or AD7825 variants?
No, the AD7829BRU-REEL7 is not pin-compatible with AD7822 or AD7825. It uses a 28-lead TSSOP package with dedicated A2, VIN5–VIN8, and no PD pin - unlike the 20-lead (AD7822) or 24-lead (AD7825) packages. Pin functions differ across families; migration requires PCB redesign and firmware adaptation for 8-channel addressing.
