Product details
Overview
AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 4-channel, single-ended successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with integrated channel sequencer, operating at up to 200 kSPS with 3 V or 5 V supply, delivering 70 dB SNR at 50 kHz input, and specified for −55°C to +125°C military temperature range - used in avionics data acquisition systems requiring high reliability and low power.
For engineers reviewing the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 datasheet, AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 pinout, AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 application, or AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world timing behavior, sequencer configuration details, and military-grade thermal and ESD performance metrics essential for aerospace and defense signal chain design.
Technical Context
The AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 implements a true SAR architecture with no pipeline delay, enabling precise sampling control via CS falling edge and deterministic 16-cycle conversion time synchronized to SCLK (up to 20 MHz). Its track-and-hold supports >8 MHz full-power bandwidth and maintains 70 dB SINAD at 50 kHz.
It features dual analog input ranges (0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN), programmable output coding (straight binary or twos complement), and independent VDRIVE pin allowing serial interface compatibility with 3 V or 5 V logic regardless of AVDD - critical for mixed-voltage embedded systems in unmanned platforms.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - delivers 4096 discrete digital codes for precision sensor digitization in flight control feedback loops. |
| Throughput Rate | 200 kSPS max - enables real-time monitoring of four analog channels (e.g., pressure, temperature, voltage, current) within one 5 µs window per conversion. |
| SNR | 70 dB min at 50 kHz - ensures clean digitization of dynamic signals such as vibration or RF receiver IF outputs without aliasing-induced noise floor elevation. |
| INL | ±1 LSB max - guarantees monotonicity and <1 LSB absolute error across full scale, eliminating missing codes in closed-loop servo calibration. |
| Power Dissipation | 3.6 mW max at 200 kSPS / 3 V - allows continuous operation in thermally constrained UAV payloads without active cooling. |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +125°C - qualified per AQEC standard for sustained functionality in missile guidance electronics and space-qualified subsystems. |
| Channel Isolation | −85 dB typ at 400 kHz - prevents crosstalk between adjacent inputs during simultaneous multi-sensor sampling in radar front-end monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 is housed in a 16-lead TSSOP (RU-16) package with exposed pad not electrically connected; footprint conforms to JEDEC MO-153-AB, 4.4 mm × 5.0 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCLK (Pin 1) | Master serial clock input | Drives both data transfer and internal ADC conversion timing; 20 MHz max frequency sets minimum 800 ns conversion time. |
| DIN (Pin 2) | Control register serial input | Accepts 16-bit command word on falling SCLK edges to configure range, coding, and sequencer mode before each conversion. |
| CS (Pin 3) | Active-low conversion trigger | Falling edge initiates sampling and conversion; rising edge terminates serial readout - enables precise external timing synchronization. |
| AGND (Pins 4, 8, 13, 16) | Analog ground reference | All analog circuitry (T/H, mux, reference path) referenced here; must be star-connected to minimize ground bounce in multi-channel acquisition. |
| AVDD (Pins 5, 6) | Analog power supply | 2.7 V to 5.25 V single supply powers core ADC; 4.75–5.25 V required for 0 V to 2×REFIN input range operation. |
| REFIN (Pin 7) | External reference input | 2.5 V ±1% applied here sets full-scale range; impedance ~36 kΩ requires low-Z source or buffer for stable accuracy. |
| VIN0–VIN3 (Pins 9, 12, 14, 15) | Single-ended analog inputs | Four dedicated inputs; sequencer selects channel order via control register; unused pins must tie to AGND to prevent noise coupling. |
| DOUT (Pin 10) | Serial data output | Outputs 16-bit frame: two leading zeros + two address bits + 12-bit result MSB-first on SCLK falling edge; tri-state capable. |
| VDRIVE (Pin 11) | Digital I/O voltage reference | Defines logic thresholds for DIN, DOUT, CS, SCLK - decouples interface voltage from AVDD, enabling direct connection to 3 V or 5 V host processors. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-channel sequencer with preprogrammable order | Reduces host processor overhead by automatically cycling through VIN0–VIN3 in user-defined sequence without repeated register writes. |
| No pipeline delay SAR architecture | Enables deterministic latency (≤800 ns conversion + 16 SCLK readout) for time-critical closed-loop control where jitter-free sampling instant matters. |
| VDRIVE pin for dual-voltage interface | Allows seamless integration with 3 V microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex-M4F) while AVDD runs at 5 V for optimal SNR, eliminating level shifters. |
| Auto shutdown mode (0.5 µA) | Extends battery life in intermittent-sampling applications like satellite telemetry beacons by cutting power between bursts without losing configuration state. |
| Military-grade qualification (AQEC) | Includes controlled manufacturing baseline, single fab/assembly site, and full traceability - meets MIL-PRF-38535 Class K requirements for flight hardware. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7924BRUZ-REEL7 | Same pinout, 4-channel, but commercial grade (−40°C to +85°C); lacks AQEC qualification and extended temp support. | Not suitable for flight-critical or space-qualified designs requiring −55°C startup or 125°C sustained operation. | Select only for ground-test equipment or non-mission-critical prototypes where cost is prioritized over environmental robustness. |
| ADS8325IPW | 16-bit, 100 kSPS, 8-channel, SPI-compatible, but no VDRIVE pin; requires level-shifting when interfacing to mixed-voltage hosts. | Higher resolution but lower speed and no military temp rating; unsuitable for real-time 200 kSPS avionics loops. | Choose when absolute precision outweighs speed and ruggedness - e.g., calibration lab instrumentation, not embedded flight hardware. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sample rate supported by the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7?
The AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 supports a maximum throughput rate of 200 kSPS, achieved with a 20 MHz SCLK and 16 SCLK cycles per conversion. This rate is fully guaranteed across the entire −55°C to +125°C military temperature range and applies to all four input channels when using the internal sequencer. The AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 achieves this without pipeline delay, ensuring deterministic timing for real-time control loops.
Does the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 requires an external reference voltage applied to the REFIN pin. The device is specified for optimal performance with a 2.5 V ±1% reference; deviation beyond this tolerance degrades INL and gain accuracy. The REFIN input has a typical impedance of 36 kΩ at 200 kSPS, so a low-output-impedance reference buffer or precision voltage reference IC (e.g., ADR4525) is recommended to maintain stability during sampling.
How does the VDRIVE pin function in the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7?
The VDRIVE pin on the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 independently sets the logic voltage level for all digital I/Os (CS, SCLK, DIN, DOUT), decoupling them from AVDD. This allows the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 to interface directly with 3 V or 5 V host processors - for example, connecting to a 3.3 V FPGA while AVDD operates at 5 V to maximize SNR - without external level shifters or risk of violating input voltage limits.
Can the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 operate with a 3 V analog supply?
Yes, the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 operates with AVDD from 2.7 V to 5.25 V. At 3 V, it consumes ≤1.2 mA during conversion and delivers 3.6 mW total power at 200 kSPS. However, the 0 V to 2 × REFIN input range requires AVDD ≥4.75 V; for 3 V operation, only the 0 V to REFIN range is supported. All DC and AC specifications - including SNR, INL, and THD - are fully characterized down to 2.7 V.
What packaging and compliance information applies to the AD7923SRU-EP-RL7?
The AD7923SRU-EP-RL7 is supplied in a 16-lead TSSOP (RU-16) package compliant with JEDEC MO-153-AB, RoHS-compliant (Pb-free), and qualified to AQEC standards for defense and aerospace use. It features controlled manufacturing baseline, single fabrication and assembly site, full traceability, and extended temperature operation from −55°C to +125°C - documented in the AD7923-EP Rev. A datasheet.
