Product details
Overview
AD7895ANZ-2 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, single-supply successive-approximation ADC with 3.8 µs conversion time, unipolar 0 V to +2.5 V input range, straight binary output coding, and high-speed serial interface in an 8-pin PDIP package. It integrates on-chip track/hold, internal clock, and operates at 20 mW max power dissipation for precision data acquisition in industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the AD7895ANZ-2 datasheet, AD7895ANZ-2 pinout, AD7895ANZ-2 application, or AD7895ANZ-2 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, real-world use cases, and confirmed alternative options - all grounded in Analog Devices' official Rev. 0 documentation and ordering guide.
Technical Context
The AD7895ANZ-2 implements a laser-trimmed internal clock driving a 12-bit R-2R ladder SAR core, with on-chip track/hold acquiring to ±1/2 LSB in ≤0.5 µs. Its analog front-end accepts 0 V to +2.5 V inputs directly at VIN with <500 nA input current and no external scaling resistors.
It supports two operating modes: Mode 1 (3.8 µs conversion, continuous sampling) and Mode 2 (9.8 µs total cycle including 6 µs wake-up, auto power-down). Serial interface uses SCLK falling edge to clock out 16-bit frames - four leading zeros followed by 12-bit straight binary data - with BUSY indicating conversion status.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - guarantees no missing codes over full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). |
| Conversion Time | 3.8 µs (Mode 1) - enables up to 192 kHz throughput when paired with 15 MHz SCLK and proper timing margins. |
| Analog Input Range | 0 V to +2.5 V - unipolar range optimized for single-supply systems using +2.5 V reference; no external level-shifting required. |
| Output Coding | Straight (natural) binary - simplifies firmware decoding vs. 2's complement; LSB = 0.61 mV (2.5 V / 4096). |
| Power Dissipation | 20 mW max at +5 V - includes active conversion and serial read; drops to 25 µW in power-down mode. |
| Relative Accuracy | ±1 LSB max - ensures monotonicity and predictable transfer function error across full scale. |
| Signal-to-(Noise+Distortion) | 70 dB min @ 50 kHz - meets precision measurement requirements for audio-band and sensor signal chains. |
Pinout & Package
AD7895ANZ-2 is housed in an 8-pin plastic DIP (N-8 package), 0.3" wide, with through-hole mounting. Pin numbering follows standard dual-in-line orientation (pin 1 at top-left corner, counterclockwise).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - REF IN | Voltage reference input | Accepts buffered +2.5 V ±5% external reference; 1 µA max input current; sets full-scale gain and LSB size. |
| 2 - VIN | Analog input channel | Direct connection to track/hold amplifier; 0 V to +2.5 V unipolar range; <500 nA input bias current. |
| 3 - GND | Analog ground reference | Common return for track/hold, comparator, DAC, and digital logic; must be low-impedance and separated from digital ground. |
| 4 - SCLK | Serial clock input | External clock up to 15 MHz; falling edge clocks out SDATA; timing-critical for data access (t4 = 603 ns max). |
| 5 - SDATA | Serial data output | 3-state output; provides 16-bit frame (4 zeros + 12-bit straight binary); valid 10 ns after SCLK falling edge. |
| 6 - BUSY | Conversion status indicator | Active-high open-drain output; goes high on CONVST falling edge, returns low after 3.8 µs (Mode 1) to signal data ready. |
| 7 - CONVST | Convert start trigger | Edge-sensitive input; falling edge initiates conversion and hold; low-hold enables auto power-down between cycles. |
| 8 - VDD | Positive supply | +5 V ±5%; powers analog and digital sections; 4 mA max IDD; requires local 0.1 µF decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip track/hold amplifier | Acquires input to 12-bit accuracy in ≤0.5 µs - eliminates need for external sample-and-hold in high-speed DC-coupled systems. |
| Auto power-down mode | Reduces IDD to 5 µA max between conversions - extends battery life in portable instrumentation without sacrificing resolution. |
| High-speed serial interface | Two-wire (SCLK/SDATA) + BUSY status - minimizes PCB routing, supports microcontroller GPIOs without SPI hardware. |
| Single +5 V supply operation | No ±15 V rails or charge pumps required - simplifies power design and reduces BOM cost in embedded data loggers. |
| Unipolar 0 V to +2.5 V input | Matches common precision voltage references (e.g., AD780, AD680) - avoids signal inversion or offset calibration in sensor front-ends. |
Applications
| Industrial Process Monitoring | Portable Data Acquisition |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit unipolar serial ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7895AR-2 | Same electrical specs and pinout; SOIC-8 package instead of PDIP. | Requires surface-mount assembly; better thermal performance (θJA = 170°C/W vs. 130°C/W) but no through-hole option. | Select for space-constrained PCBs where reflow soldering is available and mechanical robustness is secondary. |
| AD7894BN | 14-bit resolution, same 8-pin PDIP footprint, 3.8 µs conversion, but requires ±5 V supplies and bipolar ±2.5 V input. | Higher resolution but incompatible unipolar input architecture and dual-supply requirement. | Choose only if 14-bit precision is mandatory and system can accommodate dual supplies and revised signal conditioning. |
Compared with AD7895AR-2, AD7895ANZ-2 offers identical performance in a through-hole package for prototyping and ruggedized designs; compared with AD7894BN, it trades 2 bits of resolution for single-supply simplicity and unipolar compatibility - critical for cost-sensitive, battery-operated systems.

FAQ
What is the input voltage range supported by the AD7895ANZ-2?
The AD7895ANZ-2 supports a unipolar analog input range of 0 V to +2.5 V. This is distinct from the AD7895-10 (±10 V) and AD7895-3 (±2.5 V) variants. The input connects directly to the on-chip track/hold amplifier with <500 nA bias current, requiring no external scaling resistors. Reference voltage must be +2.5 V ±5% applied to the REF IN pin.
Does the AD7895ANZ-2 require an external clock source?
No, the AD7895ANZ-2 contains a laser-trimmed internal oscillator that generates the conversion clock. An external serial clock (SCLK) is required only for reading data - it drives the serial interface at up to 15 MHz. The internal clock eliminates timing jitter and external component count, simplifying system design while maintaining 3.8 µs conversion time in Mode 1 operation.
What output coding format does the AD7895ANZ-2 use?
The AD7895ANZ-2 uses straight (natural) binary output coding - not 2's complement. Its 16-bit serial frame consists of four leading zeros followed by the 12-bit result, where 0x000 represents 0 V and 0xFFF represents +2.5 V. This simplifies firmware interpretation in microcontrollers without sign-extension logic, unlike the AD7895-10/-3 variants which use 2's complement for bipolar ranges.
How does power management work in the AD7895ANZ-2?
The AD7895ANZ-2 features an automatic power-down mode activated when CONVST remains low after conversion completes. In this state, supply current drops to 5 µA max at +25°C (10 µA over temperature), reducing power dissipation to 25 µW. The part "wakes up" on the rising edge of the next CONVST pulse, with a 6 µs wake-up time before conversion begins - ideal for intermittent sampling in battery-powered applications.
Is the AD7895ANZ-2 pin-compatible with other AD7895 variants?
Yes, all AD7895 variants - including AD7895ANZ-2, AD7895AN-10, AD7895AR-3, etc. - share identical 8-pin PDIP or SOIC footprints and pin functions. However, input range, output coding, and reference requirements differ: AD7895ANZ-2 requires 0–2.5 V unipolar input and straight binary output, while AD7895-10/-3 require bipolar inputs and 2's complement coding. Swapping variants requires signal conditioning and firmware updates.
