Product details
Overview
AD7853LBRZ from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 100 kSPS pseudo-differential successive-approximation ADC operating from a single 3 V to 5.5 V supply. It features on-chip 2.5 V reference, system/self-calibration, automatic power-down after conversion (1.15 mW at 10 kSPS), and SPI/QSPI/8051-compatible serial interface. Used in battery-powered medical instruments and portable data acquisition systems requiring low-power precision sampling.
For engineers reviewing the AD7853LBRZ datasheet, AD7853LBRZ pinout, AD7853LBRZ application, or AD7853LBRZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 kSPS throughput, ±1 LSB INL (B-grade), 4.5 mW typical active power at 3 V, and 24-lead SOIC package with verified pin mapping for AIN(+), CONVST, BUSY, and SCLK.
Technical Context
The AD7853LBRZ implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with integrated track-and-hold (500 ns acquisition), internal 2.5 V reference (20 ppm/°C tempco), and flexible analog input modes (0 to VREF unipolar or ±VREF/2 bipolar) controlled by AMODE. Calibration logic supports both self-calibration (125013 tCLKIN) and system-level offset/gain adjustment using external reference voltage spans.
Its serial interface supports five programmable modes via SM1/SM2 pins, including external-clock (SCLK input) and self-clocking (SCLK output) configurations, with POLARITY pin selecting SCLK idle state. Power management is controlled via SLEEP pin and control register bits PMGT1/PMGT0, enabling full or partial power-down with retained calibration data.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, 200 kSPS, SPI interface, no internal reference, 3 V only | Lower resolution limits use to non-critical industrial monitoring-not suitable for medical waveform capture | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs resolution needs and external reference is already present |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7853LBRZ?
The AD7853LBRZ supports a maximum sampling rate of 100 kSPS, achieved with a 1.8 MHz master clock at 0°C to +70°C or a 1 MHz master clock at –40°C to +85°C. This throughput enables accurate digitization of signals up to 50 kHz bandwidth while maintaining specified SNR and THD performance. The AD7853LBRZ's conversion time is fixed at 18 clock cycles, so actual sample rate depends directly on CLKIN frequency and operating temperature grade.
Does the AD7853LBRZ require an external reference voltage?
No, the AD7853LBRZ does not require an external reference voltage because it integrates a 2.5 V reference with 20 ppm/°C tempco and ±2.7 V output tolerance. However, it supports external reference input via the REFIN/REFOUT pin for improved system-level accuracy-accepting voltages from 1.2 V to AVDD. When using the internal reference, CREF1 (0.1 µF) and CREF2 (0.01 µF) capacitors must be connected to AGND as specified in the AD7853LBRZ datasheet.
How does the AD7853LBRZ handle power management in battery-powered applications?
The AD7853LBRZ offers three power states: normal (4.5 mW at 3 V), sleep (5 µA with external clock off), and full power-down (1 µA typical). The SLEEP pin controls entry into low-power mode, and the control register allows software-configurable power management (PMGT1/PMGT0 bits). After each conversion, the device automatically enters power-down unless disabled-reducing average power in intermittent-sampling applications like environmental data loggers where the AD7853LBRZ operates at <10 kSPS.
Can the AD7853LBRZ perform system-level calibration with external components?
Yes, the AD7853LBRZ supports system-level calibration using external signal chain components. Its calibration engine accepts system offset spans of ±0.05 × VREF and system gain spans of ±0.025 × VREF, allowing correction of errors introduced by external amplifiers, sensors, or PCB traces. This is performed by applying known reference signals to AIN(+) and AIN(–) while asserting CAL, and requires no host µC involvement beyond initiating the sequence-making it ideal for field-deployable calibration in portable medical or test equipment using the AD7853LBRZ.
What serial interface protocols are compatible with the AD7853LBRZ?
The AD7853LBRZ supports five serial interface modes selectable via SM1 and SM2 pins, making it compatible with SPI, QSPI, 8051, and generic µP protocols. It operates with either external SCLK (modes 1–3) or self-clocking SCLK output (modes 4–5), and the POLARITY pin determines whether SCLK idles high or low. All modes use 16-bit framing with configurable read/write addressing, enabling seamless integration with diverse host controllers without protocol translation hardware.
