Product details
Overview
AD7914BRU-REEL from Analog Devices is a 10-bit, 1 MSPS, 4-channel successive approximation ADC with integrated channel sequencer, operating from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply and delivering 61 dB SNR at 50 kHz input frequency. It features four single-ended analog inputs, SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible serial interface, and 0.5 µA full shutdown current. It is used in multichannel data acquisition systems requiring high throughput and low power in space-constrained industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the AD7914BRU-REEL datasheet, AD7914BRU-REEL pinout, AD7914BRU-REEL application, or AD7914BRU-REEL equivalent, key selection considerations include its 10-bit resolution with ±0.5 LSB INL, 16-pin TSSOP package, sequencer-controlled 4-channel conversion, VDRIVE-independent logic interface, and automotive-qualified operation up to +125°C.
Technical Context
The AD7914BRU-REEL implements a standard successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with no pipeline delay, where sampling is triggered on the falling edge of CS and conversion is clocked by SCLK. Its internal track-and-hold amplifier supports >8 MHz input bandwidth and handles full-scale step inputs with ≤300 ns acquisition time.
It uses a programmable control register to configure input range (0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN), output coding (straight binary or twos complement), and sequencer mode (fixed or user-defined channel order). The VDRIVE pin decouples logic-level compatibility (3 V or 5 V) from AVDD, enabling direct interfacing with mixed-voltage microcontrollers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 10 bits - delivers 1,024 distinct digital codes with guaranteed no missing codes. |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS - supports real-time sampling of four channels at 250 kSPS each via sequencer. |
| SNR @ 50 kHz | 61 dB min - enables accurate digitization of medium-bandwidth sensor signals (e.g., strain gauges, RTDs). |
| INL | ±0.5 LSB max - ensures linearity critical for closed-loop control and precision measurement calibration. |
| Power Dissipation @ 3 V | 6 mW max at 1 MSPS - allows battery-powered or thermally constrained embedded designs. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.5 µA max - reduces system standby power without external switching circuitry. |
| Input Range Options | 0 V to REFIN (2.5 V) or 0 V to 2 × REFIN - selectable via RANGE bit for flexible signal scaling. |
Pinout & Package
AD7914BRU-REEL is housed in a 16-lead TSSOP package (4.4 mm × 5.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; pins are numbered counterclockwise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCLK (Pin 1) | Serial clock input | Master clock for both data transfer and internal conversion timing; supports up to 20 MHz. |
| DIN (Pin 2) | Control register data input | Accepts configuration bits (SEQ1/SEQ0, RANGE, CODING) on falling SCLK edges. |
| CS (Pin 3) | Chip select / conversion trigger | Active-low signal that initiates sampling on falling edge and frames serial communication. |
| AGND (Pins 4, 8, 13, 16) | Analog ground reference | Common return for all analog circuitry; must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling. |
| AVDD (Pins 5, 6) | Analog power supply | Single 2.7–5.25 V supply powering analog core; requires local 10 µF + 100 nF decoupling. |
| REFIN (Pin 7) | External reference input | Accepts 2.5 V ±1% reference; impedance ~36 kΩ; determines full-scale range and accuracy. |
| VIN0–VIN3 (Pins 9–12) | Single-ended analog inputs | Four independent channels; internally multiplexed; unused inputs must be tied to AGND. |
| VDRIVE (Pin 15) | Digital I/O voltage reference | Sets logic levels independently of AVDD - enables direct connection to 3 V or 5 V processors. |
| DOUT (Pin 14) | Serial data output | MSB-first 10-bit result prefixed by two address bits and two leading zeros; tri-state capable. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-channel sequencer | Enables automatic round-robin or custom-order conversion of VIN0–VIN3 without host intervention. |
| No pipeline delay | Provides deterministic latency: sampling occurs precisely on CS falling edge; result available after fixed 16 SCLK cycles. |
| VDRIVE logic independence | Allows simultaneous use of 3 V microcontroller I/O and 5 V analog supply without level shifters. |
| Flexible input range selection | Supports both unipolar 0–2.5 V and 0–5 V ranges via RANGE bit, simplifying front-end design. |
| Automotive qualification | Qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C), suitable for engine control and ADAS sensor nodes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 10-bit, multichannel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7910BRMZ-REEL | Single-channel, 10-bit, 1 MSPS SAR ADC in 10-lead MSOP; lacks sequencer and VIN1–VIN3 inputs. | Requires external multiplexer and timing control for 4-channel operation; higher system complexity. | Choose when board space is extremely limited and channel count can be reduced or managed externally. |
| ADS7953IRHBT | Texas Instruments 12-bit, 1 MSPS, 16-channel SAR ADC with integrated sequencer; 32-pin QFN package. | Higher resolution and channel count, but larger footprint and 5.5 V max AVDD (vs. AD7914BRU-REEL's 5.25 V). | Choose when future scalability to >4 channels or 12-bit precision is required, accepting larger package and different layout. |
Compared with AD7914BRU-REEL, AD7910BRMZ-REEL reduces integration at the cost of added external components, while ADS7953IRHBT increases channel count and resolution but requires redesign for 32-pin QFN layout and higher supply headroom.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7914BRU-REEL?
The AD7914BRU-REEL supports a maximum throughput rate of 1 MSPS. This is achieved with a 20 MHz SCLK and fixed 16-cycle conversion time. At this rate, the sequencer cycles through all four channels at 250 kSPS per channel, with no pipeline delay and deterministic timing controlled by the CS signal.
Does the AD7914BRU-REEL require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the AD7914BRU-REEL requires an external reference voltage applied to the REFIN pin. For specified performance, REFIN must be 2.5 V ±1%. The device supports two input ranges-0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN-selected via the RANGE bit in the control register. No internal reference is provided.
How does the VDRIVE pin function in the AD7914BRU-REEL?
The VDRIVE pin sets the logic voltage level for the serial interface (SCLK, DIN, DOUT, CS) independently of AVDD. This allows the AD7914BRU-REEL to interface directly with 3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry-even when AVDD operates at a different voltage within the 2.7 V to 5.25 V range.
Is the AD7914BRU-REEL qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the AD7914BRU-REEL is qualified for automotive applications under AEC-Q100 Grade 1, supporting operation from −40°C to +125°C. It is explicitly listed in the "Automotive Products" section of the AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 datasheet Rev. C and meets reliability and stress-test requirements for engine bay and cabin-mounted electronics.
What is the purpose of the sequencer in the AD7914BRU-REEL?
The sequencer in the AD7914BRU-REEL automates consecutive conversions across VIN0–VIN3 without host processor intervention. Configured via SEQ1/SEQ0 bits, it supports fixed-order (0→1→2→3) or user-defined sequences, reducing firmware overhead and ensuring consistent inter-channel timing in multichannel acquisition systems.
