Product details
Overview
AD7928BRUZ from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 1 MSPS, 8-channel successive approximation ADC with integrated channel sequencer, operating from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply and delivering 70 dB min SINAD at 50 kHz input frequency. It features SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible serial interface, no pipeline delay, and 20-lead TSSOP packaging for space-constrained industrial data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD7928BRUZ datasheet, AD7928BRUZ pinout, AD7928BRUZ application, or AD7928BRUZ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed no-missed-codes to 12 bits, flexible 0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN input range selection via control register, VDRIVE-independent 3 V/5 V logic interfacing, low 6 mW power at 3 V/1 MSPS, and automotive-qualified −40°C to +125°C operation.
Technical Context
The AD7928BRUZ implements a standard SAR architecture with track-and-hold amplifier supporting >8 MHz input bandwidth and 10 ns aperture delay. Conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS, with timing fully controlled by SCLK - requiring exactly 16 clock cycles per conversion at up to 20 MHz.
Its sequencer enables preprogrammed cycling across eight single-ended inputs (VIN0–VIN7), while the control register configures input range (RANGE bit), output coding (CODING bit), and channel addressing (ADD2–ADD0). The VDRIVE pin decouples logic-level compatibility from AVDD, allowing direct interfacing with 3 V or 5 V microcontrollers regardless of analog supply voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - guarantees monotonicity and no missing codes across full temperature range. |
| Throughput Rate | 1 MSPS - supports real-time sampling of signals up to 500 kHz Nyquist bandwidth. |
| SINAD | 70 dB min at 50 kHz - enables accurate digitization of medium-bandwidth sensor signals with low noise floor. |
| Input Range Options | 0 V to REFIN (2.5 V) or 0 V to 2 × REFIN - selectable via RANGE bit for unipolar or bipolar-referenced measurements. |
| Power Dissipation | 6 mW max at 3 V/1 MSPS - enables battery-powered or thermally constrained embedded monitoring. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.5 μA max - reduces system standby power without external circuitry. |
| Serial Interface | SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP compatible - ensures drop-in integration with common MCU peripherals. |
Pinout & Package
AD7928BRUZ is housed in a 20-lead TSSOP package (4.4 mm × 6.5 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin assignments are validated per Analog Devices Rev. E datasheet Figure 3 and Table 6.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCLK (Pin 1) | Master clock input | Drives both serial data transfer and internal conversion timing; 20 MHz max rate defines minimum 800 ns conversion time. |
| DIN (Pin 2) | Control register input | Accepts configuration bits (RANGE, CODING, SEQ, ADD2–ADD0) on falling SCLK edges for dynamic mode control. |
| CS (Pin 3) | Conversion trigger & frame sync | Falling edge initiates sampling and conversion; also delimits serial data frames for reliable MCU synchronization. |
| AGND (Pins 4, 8, 17, 20) | Analog ground reference | Must be tied to low-impedance analog ground plane; all analog inputs and REFIN referenced to this node. |
| AVDD (Pins 5, 6) | Analog power supply | 2.7 V to 5.25 V single supply; 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% precision reference sets full-scale range; 36 kΩ input impedance enables buffered or direct connection. |
| VIN0–VIN7 (Pins 9–16) | Single-ended analog inputs | Eight channels multiplexed into internal T/H; unused pins must be tied to AGND to prevent noise coupling. |
| DOUT (Pin 18) | Serial data output | MSB-first stream: leading zero + 3-bit address + 12-bit result; timing aligned to SCLK falling edge. |
| VDRIVE (Pin 19) | Digital I/O voltage reference | Defines logic thresholds independently of AVDD - allows interfacing with 3 V or 5 V processors without level shifters. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | True sample-and-hold timing control via CS edge eliminates latency uncertainty in closed-loop systems. |
| Configurable input range | Software-selectable 0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN enables optimal dynamic range use for varying sensor outputs. |
| VDRIVE decoupling | Independent logic supply allows mixed-voltage system integration without external level translation components. |
| Channel sequencer | Hardware-controlled cycling across up to 8 inputs reduces MCU overhead and ensures deterministic scan order. |
| Automotive qualification | Rated for −40°C to +125°C operation with AEC-Q100 stress testing compliance for under-hood applications. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the AD7928BRUZ?
The AD7928BRUZ supports a maximum throughput rate of 1 MSPS, achieved with a 20 MHz SCLK and 16-clock-cycle conversion time. This rate is maintained across its full operating temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and supply range (2.7 V to 5.25 V), with no pipeline delay affecting timing predictability. The AD7928BRUZ maintains guaranteed 12-bit no-missing-codes performance at this rate.
Does the AD7928BRUZ require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the AD7928BRUZ requires an external reference voltage applied to the REFIN pin. The datasheet specifies 2.5 V ±1% for guaranteed performance, with input impedance of 36 kΩ at 1 MSPS. The AD7928BRUZ does not include an internal reference; using an external precision reference ensures optimal INL, DNL, and SINAD performance across temperature and supply variations.
How does the VDRIVE pin function in the AD7928BRUZ?
The VDRIVE pin on the AD7928BRUZ sets the logic threshold voltages for all digital I/O pins (CS, SCLK, DIN, DOUT), independent of the analog supply AVDD. This allows direct interfacing with 3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level shifters - for example, AVDD can be 3.3 V while VDRIVE is 5 V to match a host processor's I/O voltage. The AD7928BRUZ supports VDRIVE from 2.7 V to 5.25 V.
Can the AD7928BRUZ operate in automotive temperature conditions?
Yes, the AD7928BRUZ is qualified for automotive applications with an extended operating temperature range of −40°C to +125°C, per the datasheet's Automotive Products section. It meets AEC-Q100 stress testing requirements and is rated for use in engine control units, battery management systems, and other under-hood or cabin applications where high-temperature reliability is mandatory.
What is the purpose of the channel sequencer in the AD7928BRUZ?
The channel sequencer in the AD7928BRUZ enables hardware-controlled, preprogrammed cycling through up to eight analog input channels (VIN0–VIN7) without MCU intervention. Configured via the SEQ and ADD2–ADD0 bits in the control register, it reduces firmware overhead, ensures deterministic scan order, and improves system timing repeatability - especially valuable in real-time control and synchronized multi-sensor acquisition. The AD7928BRUZ sequencer supports both single-shot and continuous modes.
