Product details
Overview
AD7853LAR-REEL from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, pseudo-differential successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter optimized for low-power operation at up to 100 kSPS. It operates from a single 3 V to 5.5 V supply, features on-chip 2.5 V reference, self- and system-calibration, and supports SPI/QSPI/8051-compatible serial interface. Used in battery-powered instrumentation and portable medical devices requiring precision sampling with minimal power draw.
For engineers reviewing the AD7853LAR-REEL datasheet, AD7853LAR-REEL pinout, AD7853LAR-REEL application, or AD7853LAR-REEL equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated package mapping, confirmed calibration behavior, real-world timing constraints, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for design-in decisions.
Technical Context
The AD7853LAR-REEL implements a track-and-hold amplifier with 500 ns acquisition time and a SAR ADC core using charge redistribution DAC architecture. Its internal 2.5 V reference is buffered and accessible via REFIN/REFOUT, supporting external overdrive from 1.2 V to AVDD.
Calibration logic includes automatic power-up self-calibration, user-initiated system offset/gain calibration, and configurable power-down modes (full or partial) controlled via PMGT bits in the control register. Serial interface operation is determined by SM1/SM2 pins and supports five distinct modes, including self-clocking (SCLK output) and external-clocking (SCLK input) configurations.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7476AARMZ-REEL | 12-bit, 1 MSPS, 3.6 mW @ 3 V; no internal reference; requires external REF; 10-lead MSOP | Higher speed but lacks on-chip reference and calibration; needs additional passive components | Choose when sampling rate >100 kSPS is required and board space permits external reference design |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit, 200 kSPS, 5.5 mW @ 3 V; internal 2.5 V ref; SPI-only interface; 8-pin SOIC | Faster than AD7853LAR-REEL but no system calibration; limited to unipolar input only | Choose for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs where bipolar input and calibration are not needed |
Compared with AD7853LAR-REEL, AD7476AARMZ-REEL trades integrated calibration and reference for higher speed and smaller footprint, while ADS7822U offers faster throughput in a smaller package but omits bipolar input support and system-level calibration capability - making AD7853LAR-REEL uniquely suited for portable precision instruments requiring guaranteed linearity and autonomous calibration.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7853LAR-REEL?
The AD7853LAR-REEL supports a maximum sampling rate of 100 kSPS, achieved with a 1 MHz master clock (CLKIN). This rate is fixed for the 'L' variant and is lower than the 200 kSPS capability of the standard AD7853. The conversion time is 10 µs, and the track-and-hold acquisition time is specified at 500 ns, enabling reliable sampling of signals up to 50 kHz bandwidth. AD7853LAR-REEL maintains this performance across its full operating temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
Does the AD7853LAR-REEL include an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the AD7853LAR-REEL integrates a 2.5 V internal voltage reference accessible via the REFIN/REFOUT pin. It can operate with this internal reference or accept an external reference from 1.2 V to AVDD. When using the internal reference, external capacitors CREF1 (0.1 µF) and CREF2 (0.01 µF) must be connected to AGND per the datasheet layout guidelines. The reference exhibits 20 ppm/°C tempco and supports both unipolar (0 to VREF) and bipolar (±VREF/2) input ranges. AD7853LAR-REEL retains this reference functionality in all power modes except full power-down.
How does calibration work on the AD7853LAR-REEL?
The AD7853LAR-REEL supports three calibration types: automatic self-calibration on power-up (triggered by CAL pin rising edge), user-initiated full self-calibration (31.25 ms typical), and system-level offset/gain calibration (3.47 ms and 27.78 ms respectively). Calibration data is retained during SLEEP mode. The device allows system calibration spans of ±0.05 × VREF for offset and ±0.025 × VREF for gain, enabling correction of external sensor and signal-chain errors. All calibration operations are performed autonomously by on-chip logic without host processor intervention. AD7853LAR-REEL uses these capabilities to maintain ±1 LSB INL across temperature and time.
What serial interface protocols does the AD7853LAR-REEL support?
The AD7853LAR-REEL supports SPI, QSPI, and 8051-compatible serial interfaces through five programmable modes selected by SM1 and SM2 pins. It operates with either external clocking (SCLK input) or self-clocking (SCLK output), and supports both MSB-first and LSB-first data ordering. The POLARITY pin configures SCLK idle state (high or low), and SYNC functions as chip select or frame sync depending on mode. All interface modes use 16-bit words: first two bits address internal registers (control, status, calibration), and remaining bits carry data. AD7853LAR-REEL requires no external level-shifting for 3 V or 5 V logic families.
What power-saving features does the AD7853LAR-REEL offer?
The AD7853LAR-REEL provides three power states: normal (6.85 mW at 3.6 V), partial power-down (400 µA), and full power-down (5 µA with external clock disabled). Power state is controlled via PMGT bits in the control register or the SLEEP pin. In full power-down, the internal reference and analog circuitry are disabled, but calibration data remains intact. Automatic power-down activates after each conversion completes, reducing average power in burst-mode applications. AD7853LAR-REEL achieves 1.15 mW typical dissipation at 10 kSPS, making it suitable for multi-year battery operation in remote sensors.
