Product details
Overview
AD7884BPZ from Analog Devices is a 16-bit monolithic sampling analog-to-digital converter with internal sample-and-hold, 5.3 µs conversion time, ±0.0075% FSR integral nonlinearity, and ±5 V/±3 V dual input ranges. It delivers 166 kSPS throughput in industrial data acquisition systems requiring high DC accuracy and dynamic performance.
For engineers reviewing the AD7884BPZ datasheet, AD7884BPZ pinout, AD7884BPZ application, or AD7884BPZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 16-bit parallel output architecture, two-pass flash conversion topology, internal oscillator timing control, and CERDIP-compatible 44-lead PLCC package with isolated analog/digital ground paths.
Technical Context
The AD7884BPZ implements a two-pass flash ADC architecture: first pass digitizes the 9 MSBs using a 9-bit flash converter and feeds them to an on-chip 16-bit DAC; second pass amplifies and digitizes the residue error to generate the 7 LSBs. Conversion is initiated asynchronously via CONVST and controlled by CS/RD strobes.
It operates from ±5 V analog/digital supplies with separate AVDD/AVSS and VDD/VSS rails, requires a 3 V reference (VREF+S = 3 V), and uses dedicated AGNDS/AGNDF force-sense pairs for the 9-bit ADC section to maintain linearity. The internal oscillator eliminates external clock dependency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16 bits - guarantees no missing codes across full transfer function |
| Conversion Time | 5.3 µs max - enables 166 kSPS sustained throughput with overlapping acquisition |
| Integral Nonlinearity | ±0.0075% FSR max - ensures <1 LSB error over full scale for precision measurement |
| Signal-to-Noise+Distortion | 84 dB min at 1 kHz ±5 V input - supports >13.5 ENOB in narrowband applications |
| Analog Input Ranges | ±5 V or ±3 V selectable - configurable via external pin tie-offs without hardware change |
| Power Dissipation | 325 mW max - optimized for high-speed operation within thermal limits of PLCC package |
| Reference Requirement | VREF+S = 3 V - mandates low-noise buffered reference (e.g., AD780 + AD845) for <125 µV system noise budget |
Pinout & Package
The AD7884BPZ is packaged in a 44-lead plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC), pin 1 identified by corner notch. Package dimensions comply with JEDEC MS-026AC, with 1.27 mm pitch and 16.5 mm × 16.5 mm body size. Thermal resistance θJA = 47.7°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DB0–DB15 | 16-bit parallel data output | Twos-complement format; latched result readable only when CS and RD active low |
| CONVST | Asynchronous conversion start | Rising-edge triggered; initiates sample-and-hold hold mode after 50 ns aperture delay |
| CS / RD | Chip select and read strobe | Enable parallel read access; BUSY must be high before initiating next conversion |
| BUSY | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output; low during entire 5.3 µs conversion cycle |
| VREF+S / VREF+F | Reference sense and force | 3 V reference interface with Kelvin connection to minimize IR drop errors |
| AGNDS / AGNDF | Analog ground sense and force | Dedicated return path for 9-bit ADC section; requires buffered star-ground connection |
| AVDD / AVSS | Analog supply rails | Isolated ±5 V power for sample-and-hold and residue amplifier; decoupling critical |
| VDD / VSS | Digital supply rails | Separate ±5 V for logic and 9-bit ADC core; DGND ties to VDD/VSS common point |
| ±5VINF / ±5VINS | ±5 V input force/sense | Configures ±5 V range; ±3V pins tied to AGND when active |
| ±3VINF / ±3VINS | ±3 V input force/sense | Configures ±3 V range; ±5V pins tied to AGND when active |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7884BPZ?
The AD7884BPZ achieves a maximum throughput rate of 166 kSPS. This is enabled by overlapping acquisition and conversion phases-while the second pass processes the residue from one sample, the input SHA acquires the next. The 5.3 µs conversion time and 2.5 µs acquisition time are specified under VDD = +5 V ±5%, VSS = –5 V ±5%, and fSAMPLE = 166 kHz conditions per the AD7884/AD7885 datasheet Rev. E.
Does the AD7884BPZ require an external clock source?
No, the AD7884BPZ does not require an external clock source. It contains an internal oscillator that controls the conversion timing sequence. Conversion is initiated solely by the asynchronous CONVST signal, and BUSY indicates completion. This eliminates clock jitter sensitivity and simplifies system-level timing design compared to externally clocked ADCs.
How do I configure the AD7884BPZ for ±3 V versus ±5 V input range?
To configure the AD7884BPZ for ±5 V input, tie ±5VINF and ±5VINS to their respective analog sources and connect ±3VINF and ±3VINS to AGND. For ±3 V input, reverse the configuration: drive ±3VINF/±3VINS and tie ±5VINF/±5VINS to AGND. The AD7884BPZ detects range selection automatically through these pin states-no register writes or external switches are needed.
What is the purpose of the AGNDS and AGNDF pins on the AD7884BPZ?
The AGNDS (analog ground sense) and AGNDF (analog ground force) pins provide a Kelvin connection for the ground return of the internal 9-bit ADC section. They must be driven by a low-offset, low-noise op amp (e.g., AD817) configured as a unity-gain buffer referenced to system AGND. Directly shorting AGNDS/AGNDF degrades INL, bipolar zero, and gain error-buffering maintains specified ±0.0075% FSR linearity.
Can the AD7884BPZ operate from a single +5 V supply?
No, the AD7884BPZ requires dual ±5 V supplies: VDD = +5 V, VSS = –5 V, AVDD = +5 V, and AVSS = –5 V. The analog and digital sections share voltage rails but demand symmetric bipolar operation to support ±5 V or ±3 V input ranges and maintain specified SNR and THD. Attempting single-supply operation violates absolute maximum ratings and will cause functional failure or permanent damage.
