Product details
Overview
AD7884BP from Analog Devices is a 16-bit monolithic sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with internal sample-and-hold, two-pass flash architecture, ±5 V/±3 V dual input ranges, 5.3 µs conversion time, and 166 kSPS throughput-designed for high-precision data acquisition in industrial control and medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD7884BP datasheet, AD7884BP pinout, AD7884BP application, or AD7884BP equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping to 44-lead PLCC, functional pin definitions, real-world application contexts, and validated alternative options for system-level design continuity.
Technical Context
The AD7884BP implements a two-pass flash ADC architecture: first pass digitizes the 9 MSBs using a 9-bit ADC and 16-bit DAC; second pass processes the residue error amplified by an on-chip residue amplifier to generate the 7 LSBs. Conversion is initiated asynchronously via CONVST and completed in ≤5.3 µs with overlap between acquisition and conversion phases.
It operates from ±5 V analog/digital supplies (VDD = +5 V, VSS = –5 V), requires a 3 V reference (VREF+S = 3 V), and supports twos complement output coding. Input range selection is hardware-configured via ±5VINF/±5VINS or ±3VINF/±3VINS pin connections-no internal register programming required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16 bits - guarantees no missing codes over full scale |
| Conversion Time | 5.3 µs max - enables 166 kSPS sustained throughput with overlapped acquisition |
| Input Ranges | ±5 V or ±3 V - selectable via external pin strapping, not software |
| Integral Nonlinearity | ±0.0075 % FSR max - ensures <1 LSB error across full temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) |
| Signal-to-Noise+Distortion | 84 dB min at 1 kHz - meets high-fidelity requirements for medical and test equipment |
| Power Dissipation | 325 mW max - optimized for thermally constrained industrial enclosures |
| Reference Input | VREF+S = 3 V - mandates external low-noise 3 V reference (e.g., AD780) with ≤35 µV rms noise |
Pinout & Package
The AD7884BP is packaged in a 44-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), designated P-44A per Analog Devices' ordering guide. This surface-mount package features J-leads, 16 mm × 16 mm body size, and integrated heat slug for thermal management in continuous high-speed operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DB0–DB15 | 16-bit parallel data output | Twos complement format; all 16 bits available simultaneously on read cycle |
| CONVST | Asynchronous conversion start | Rising-edge triggered; initiates hold mode in sample-and-hold amplifier after 50 ns aperture delay |
| CS / RD | Chip select and read control | Active-low logic pair enabling microprocessor interface without handshaking overhead |
| BUSY | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output; goes low at CONVST edge and returns high after 5.3 µs |
| ±5VINF / ±5VINS | Analog input force/sense (±5 V range) | Must be tied to AGND when using ±3 V range; defines input gain path and common-mode rejection |
| VREF+S / VREF+F | Reference sense/force inputs | Accepts 3 V reference; internal trimming ensures precise tracking and minimal gain drift (±2 ppm/°C) |
| AGNDS / AGNDF | Analog ground sense/force | Requires buffered star-ground connection (e.g., AD817) to maintain SNR and THD specs |
| VDD / VSS / AVDD / AVSS | Supply rails | Dual ±5 V supplies; AVDD/AVSS power analog section, VDD/VSS power digital logic and 9-bit ADC |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed 16-bit ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7884AP | Same 44-lead PLCC package and 166 kSPS performance; ±0.03 % FSR typ gain error vs. ±0.0075 % FSR max for AD7884BP | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial designs where tighter INL is not required | Select AD7884AP if system-level calibration compensates for higher gain error; AD7884BP preferred for uncalibrated precision use cases |
| AD7885ABP | Identical electrical specs per datasheet Note 3; differs only in 8-bit byte-read interface (DB0–DB7) vs. AD7884BP's 16-bit parallel output | Used where microcontroller has limited data bus width or requires sequential byte reads | Choose AD7885ABP only when 8-bit interface reduces MCU complexity; AD7884BP delivers full 16-bit parallel efficiency |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7884BP?
The AD7884BP supports a maximum throughput rate of 166 kSPS, achieved through overlapped acquisition and conversion phases enabled by its two-pass flash architecture. This rate is guaranteed under specified conditions: VDD = +5 V ±5%, VSS = –5 V ±5%, VREF+S = 3 V, and TA = –40°C to +85°C. The 5.3 µs conversion time allows deterministic timing for real-time control loops.
Does the AD7884BP require an external clock source?
No, the AD7884BP does not require an external clock source. It contains an internal oscillator that controls conversion timing. The device is triggered asynchronously via the CONVST input, and all internal timing-including sample-and-hold hold duration and residue amplifier settling-is derived from this on-chip oscillator, simplifying system design and reducing jitter sensitivity.
What are the power supply requirements for the AD7884BP?
The AD7884BP requires dual ±5 V supplies: VDD = +5 V ±5%, VSS = –5 V ±5%, AVDD = +5 V ±5%, and AVSS = –5 V ±5%. The datasheet specifies typical IDD = 25 mA and ISS = 25 mA, yielding ~250 mW typical power dissipation. Decoupling mandates 10 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic at AVDD/AVSS, and 1 µF ceramic at VDD/VSS pins.
Can the AD7884BP operate with a ±3 V input range?
Yes, the AD7884BP supports both ±5 V and ±3 V analog input ranges. To configure the ±3 V range, connect ±3VINF and ±3VINS to the signal source while tying ±5VINF and ±5VINS to AGND. The input section automatically adjusts gain to –1, delivering 0 V to –3 V to the internal 9-bit ADC. No software or register changes are needed-selection is purely hardware-based.
What is the purpose of the AGNDS and AGNDF pins on the AD7884BP?
The AGNDS (analog ground sense) and AGNDF (analog ground force) pins form a Kelvin connection for the on-chip 9-bit ADC and residue amplifier ground return. Per the datasheet, they must be driven by a low-offset, low-noise buffer amplifier (e.g., AD817) referenced to system AGND. Direct connection degrades INL, bipolar zero, and gain error-though SNR and THD remain largely unaffected.
