Product details
Overview
AD7887WARMZ from Analog Devices is a micropower, 12-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC supporting dual- or single-channel operation with 125 kSPS throughput, 2.7 V to 5.25 V single-supply operation, and internal 2.5 V reference. It features SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible serial interface and operates in automotive-grade temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the AD7887WARMZ datasheet, AD7887WARMZ pinout, AD7887WARMZ application, or AD7887WARMZ equivalent, key selection considerations include its 8-lead MSOP package, configurable analog input range (0–VREF or 0–VDD), shutdown current ≤1 μA, track-and-hold acquisition time of 500 ns, and guaranteed no missing codes to 11 bits in B-grade configuration.
Technical Context
The AD7887WARMZ implements a charge-redistribution DAC architecture with on-chip track-and-hold, enabling full-power signal conversion up to 2.5 MHz bandwidth. Its control logic supports four power management modes-including automatic shutdown post-conversion-and an 8-bit write-only register for mode, channel, and reference selection.
It operates in two distinct analog input configurations: single-channel mode (AIN0 only, AIN1/VREF as 2.5 V reference output/input) or dual-channel mode (AIN0 and AIN1 both active, reference derived from VDD). Input coding is straight binary, LSB = VREF/4096, and serial data output is MSB-first with four leading zeros.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit SAR ADC with straight binary output coding; LSB = VREF/4096 enables precise 0.024% full-scale step resolution. |
| Throughput Rate | 125 kSPS maximum with 2 MHz SCLK; conversion time + acquisition = 16 SCLK cycles (7.25 μs at 2 MHz). |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.25 V single supply; supports both 3 V and 5 V system rails without level-shifting. |
| Power Consumption | 850 μA typical at 125 kSPS (2.1–3.5 mW); drops to 1 μA max in shutdown mode-critical for battery life in portable systems. |
| Input Bandwidth | 2.5 MHz full-power bandwidth (−3 dB); allows accurate digitization of fast transients in sensor and modem applications. |
| DC Accuracy (B Grade) | ±1 LSB integral nonlinearity and ±1 LSB differential nonlinearity; guarantees no missing codes to 11 bits for reliable monotonicity. |
| Reference Options | Internal 2.5 V ±50 ppm/°C reference (output on AIN1/VREF) or external reference 1.2 V to VDD; enables flexible scaling of 0–VREF input range. |
Pinout & Package
AD7887WARMZ is housed in an 8-lead MSOP package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), qualified for automotive applications and compatible with standard reflow profiles including Pb-free soldering at 260°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - CS | Chip Select / Shutdown Control | Active-low input that initiates conversion and frames serial transfer; doubles as hardware shutdown pin-high = power-down (≤1 μA). |
| 2 - VDD | Power Supply Input | Single 2.7–5.25 V supply; provides reference voltage for ADC in dual-channel mode (0–VDD input range). |
| 3 - GND | Analog Ground Reference | Common ground for all internal circuitry; must be tied to system AGND plane near this pin to minimize noise coupling. |
| 4 - AIN1/VREF | Configurable Terminal | In single-channel mode: 2.5 V reference output/input (internal or external); in dual-channel mode: second analog input (AIN1, 0–VDD range). |
| 5 - AIN0 | Analog Input Channel 0 | Primary analog input; range = 0–VREF (single-channel) or 0–VDD (dual-channel); 20 pF input capacitance requires careful driver design. |
| 6 - DIN | Serial Data Input | Writes 8-bit control register on SCLK rising edge; can be tied to GND for read-only single-channel operation. |
| 7 - DOUT | Serial Data Output | Outputs 16-bit frame (4 leading zeros + 12-bit result, MSB first) on SCLK falling edge; high-impedance when CS high. |
| 8 - SCLK | Serial Clock Input | Provides clock for serial interface and ADC conversion timing; supports up to 2 MHz; defines acquisition (1.5 cycles) and conversion (14.5 cycles) timing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flexible Power Management | Four selectable modes-including auto-shutdown after conversion (Mode 3) and standby with reference active (Mode 4)-enable dynamic power optimization per sampling rate. |
| Dual-/Single-Channel Configurability | On-the-fly mode switching via control register bit SIN/DUAL; eliminates need for separate part numbers or PCB variants for different channel counts. |
| Automotive-Qualified Packaging | MSOP-8 package qualified per AEC-Q100; supports −40°C to +125°C operation with traceable sourcing and extended lifecycle support. |
| SPI-Compatible Serial Interface | Fully compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP host interfaces; no external protocol translation required for microcontroller integration. |
| Low Input Leakage & High Isolation | ±5 μA max analog input leakage and −80 dB channel-to-channel isolation at 25 kHz ensure minimal crosstalk and stable readings in multi-sensor systems. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822ID | 12-bit, 200 kSPS, 2.7–5.25 V, but uses pseudo-differential input and lacks internal reference; requires external REF. | Best suited for higher-speed single-ended or pseudo-differential sensor inputs where reference flexibility outweighs power savings. | Select ADS7822ID only if throughput >125 kSPS is mandatory and system already provides precision reference. |
| MAX11100EUA+ | 12-bit, 100 kSPS, 2.7–3.6 V only, internal 2.048 V reference, SPI-compatible, but not automotive-qualified. | Targeted at cost-sensitive industrial controls where −40°C to +85°C operation suffices and lower speed is acceptable. | Choose MAX11100EUA+ for non-automotive 3 V systems prioritizing ultra-low cost over temperature range and reference accuracy. |
Compared with ADS7822ID and MAX11100EUA+, AD7887WARMZ uniquely combines automotive qualification, internal 2.5 V reference with external override capability, dual/single-channel configurability, and sub-1 μA shutdown-making it optimal for space- and power-constrained automotive and portable medical designs requiring guaranteed monotonicity and wide supply tolerance.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7887WARMZ?
The AD7887WARMZ achieves a maximum throughput rate of 125 kSPS when operated with a 2 MHz serial clock. This rate is fixed by its internal architecture: conversion requires 14.5 SCLK cycles and acquisition 1.5 SCLK cycles, totaling 16 cycles per sample. At 2 MHz, this yields exactly 125,000 samples per second. The AD7887WARMZ does not support oversampling or decimation modes to increase effective resolution beyond this rate.
Does the AD7887WARMZ require an external reference voltage?
No-the AD7887WARMZ integrates a precision 2.5 V reference with ±50 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, accessible on the AIN1/VREF pin in single-channel mode. It also supports external reference voltages from 1.2 V to VDD applied to the same pin. In dual-channel mode, the ADC references VDD directly, eliminating need for any external reference. Thus, AD7887WARMZ operates fully autonomously in most configurations.
How does the AD7887WARMZ handle dual-channel versus single-channel operation?
The AD7887WARMZ configures channel count via bit 4 (SIN/DUAL) in its 8-bit control register: '0' selects single-channel mode (AIN0 only, AIN1/VREF becomes VREF pin); '1' enables dual-channel mode (AIN0 and AIN1 active, reference sourced from VDD). Default power-up state is single-channel read-only mode-no register write needed unless dual-channel or power-mode changes are required.
What power management modes are available on the AD7887WARMZ?
The AD7887WARMZ offers four hardware-configurable power modes via PM1/PM0 bits: Mode 1 (CS-controlled shutdown), Mode 2 (always-on), Mode 3 (auto-shutdown after each conversion), and Mode 4 (standby with reference active). Mode 3 reduces average current to ~12 μA at 1 kSPS, while Mode 4 enables faster wake-up than full shutdown-critical for event-triggered sampling in low-duty-cycle systems.
Is the AD7887WARMZ pin-compatible with other members of the AD7887 family?
Yes-AD7887WARMZ shares identical 8-lead MSOP pinout and function mapping with all AD7887 variants (e.g., AD7887BRMZ, AD7887ARUZ), including SOIC and MSOP packages. Pin functions (CS, VDD, GND, AIN1/VREF, AIN0, DIN, DOUT, SCLK) and electrical behavior are fully consistent across grades and packages, enabling drop-in replacement within the same footprint and layout.
