Product details
Overview
AD7875BQ from Analog Devices is a complete monolithic 12-bit sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with integrated track-and-hold amplifier, laser-trimmed internal clock, and on-chip 3 V buried Zener reference. It supports unipolar 0 V to +5 V input range, achieves 100 kHz sampling rate, delivers 72 dB SNR at 10 kHz input, and features 57 ns data access time. It is used in precision data acquisition systems requiring stable dc accuracy and dynamic performance for DSP interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the AD7875BQ datasheet, AD7875BQ pinout, AD7875BQ application, or AD7875BQ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed dynamic and dc specifications, package-accurate layout guidance, and two rigorously cross-referenced alternative parts for unipolar 12-bit ADC replacement scenarios.
Technical Context
The AD7875BQ implements a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with a voltage-output DAC and high-speed comparator. Its track-and-hold amplifier acquires signals to 12-bit accuracy in ≤2 μs and supports full-power input frequencies up to 50 kHz. The internal 3 V reference is laser-trimmed to ±10 mV and temperature-compensated to ±35 ppm/°C (L/C grade).
It offers three configurable digital interfaces: 12-bit parallel, two-byte (8-bit) parallel, and serial (SDATA/SCLK/SSTRB), all controlled via the 12/8/CLK and HBEN pins. Conversion is initiated either by CONVST rising edge or CS falling edge, with BUSY/INT providing status signaling. Power operation requires dual ±5 V supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - guarantees no missing codes; defines 4096 discrete output levels for 0 V to +5 V full-scale range. |
| Sampling Rate | 100 kHz - maximum sustained conversion throughput; enables Nyquist-limited baseband signal capture up to 50 kHz. |
| SNR @ 10 kHz | 72 dB min - measured with 10 kHz sine input; determines effective number of bits (ENOB ≈ 11.7) in dynamic operation. |
| Data Access Time | 57 ns max - time from RD assertion to valid DBx outputs; ensures compatibility with fast 8/16-bit microprocessors and DSPs. |
| Analog Input Range | 0 V to +5 V - unipolar range with straight-binary output coding; LSB = 1.22 mV; input resistance ≈ 25 kΩ. |
| Reference Output | 3.00 V ±10 mV - factory-trimmed buried Zener; load capability ≤500 μA; tempco ≤±35 ppm/°C (L/C grade). |
| Conversion Time | 6.5 μs min / 9 μs max - using internal laser-trimmed clock; eliminates need for external timing components. |
| Power Dissipation | 60 mW typical - at ±5 V supplies; IDD ≈ 8 mA, ISS ≈ 4 mA; suitable for low-power embedded data acquisition. |
Pinout & Package
AD7875BQ is supplied in a 28-pin plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC) package with 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-026 compliant, and hermetically sealed ceramic body. Pin 1 identifier is marked by a notch or dot; thermal pad is not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CONVST | Asynchronous convert start input | Rising-edge-triggered; initiates track-to-hold transition and conversion without clock synchronization. |
| CS | Chip select input | Active-low enable; when held low with CONVST tied low, initiates auto-conversion on CS falling edge. |
| RD | Read strobe input | Active-low; enables three-state digital outputs (DB0–DB11) only when CS is also low. |
| BUSY/INT | Open-drain status output | Active-low; indicates conversion in progress (BUSY) or completion (INT); requires external pull-up. |
| DB0–DB11 | Configurable data outputs | Function depends on 12/8/CLK and HBEN: 12-bit parallel, upper/lower byte, or serial SDATA/SCLK/SSTRB. |
| VIN | Analog input terminal | Accepts 0 V to +5 V unipolar signal; input impedance ≈25 kΩ; referenced to AGND. |
| REF OUT | Reference voltage source | Provides 3.00 V ±10 mV; drives external circuitry up to 500 μA; decoupling required for stability. |
| AGND / DGND | Analog & digital ground returns | Separate pins minimize noise coupling; must be connected at single point near device or via low-inductance path. |
| VDD / VSS | Supply terminals | +5 V ±5% and −5 V ±5%; require local 0.1 μF ceramic + 10 μF tantalum decoupling per supply pin. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit unipolar ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7870BQ | Bipolar ±3 V input range; twos-complement output; same pinout and timing but incompatible input scaling. | Requires level-shifting for 0–5 V signals; unsuitable without redesign of analog front-end and firmware sign handling. | Select only if migrating from bipolar legacy designs; not drop-in for AD7875BQ's unipolar use case. |
| ADS7822U | 12-bit SAR ADC with SPI interface only; single +5 V supply; 200 kSPS max; no internal reference or track-and-hold. | Requires external reference and signal conditioning; simpler interface but higher system integration burden. | Prefer for new low-voltage, space-constrained designs where SPI is acceptable and external ref is already present. |
Compared with AD7870BQ, AD7875BQ provides native 0–5 V compatibility and straight-binary coding-critical for industrial I/O without signal inversion. Versus ADS7822U, AD7875BQ delivers integrated reference, track-and-hold, and multi-mode parallel/serial flexibility at the cost of dual-supply operation.

FAQ
What is the input voltage range supported by the AD7875BQ?
The AD7875BQ supports a unipolar analog input range of 0 V to +5 V. This is fixed for the AD7875 variant and differs from the ±3 V range of the AD7870BQ and ±10 V range of the AD7876BQ. Input impedance is approximately 25 kΩ, and the output coding is straight binary with 1 LSB = 1.22 mV.
Does the AD7875BQ require an external clock to operate?
No, the AD7875BQ does not require an external clock. It includes a laser-trimmed internal oscillator that guarantees conversion times of 6.5 μs minimum and 9 μs maximum. An external TTL-compatible clock may be applied to the CLK pin if precise timing control or synchronization is needed, but it is optional.
How is the reference voltage configured on the AD7875BQ?
The AD7875BQ provides a factory-trimmed 3.00 V ±10 mV buried Zener reference at the REF OUT pin. It is internally used for the DAC and comparator and can supply up to 500 μA to external circuitry. For stable operation, Analog Devices specifies ≤50 pF total capacitance on REF OUT; external decoupling with a 200 Ω resistor plus 10 μF tantalum and 0.1 μF ceramic is recommended if used as a system reference.
What digital interface options does the AD7875BQ support?
The AD7875BQ supports three interface modes: 12-bit parallel (via DB0–DB11), two-byte parallel (using HBEN to select upper/lower byte), and serial (SDATA, SCLK, SSTRB). Mode selection is controlled by the logic level on the 12/8/CLK pin (+5 V = 12-bit only; 0 V or −5 V = byte/serial enabled) and HBEN state.
Is the AD7875BQ pin-compatible with other devices in the AD7870/AD7875/AD7876 family?
Yes, the AD7875BQ shares identical pinout and footprint with the AD7870BQ and AD7876BQ in the 28-pin PLCC package. However, input range, output coding (straight binary vs. twos-complement), and dynamic specification coverage differ-so direct substitution requires verification of analog front-end compatibility and firmware data handling.
