Product details
Overview
AD7991YRJZ-0RL from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 4-channel successive approximation ADC with I²C-compatible serial interface in an 8-lead SOT-23 package. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, achieves 1 µs conversion time, supports −40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range, and uses internal track-and-hold with multiplexer for simultaneous channel sequencing-ideal for compact battery-powered system monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the AD7991YRJZ-0RL datasheet, AD7991YRJZ-0RL pinout, AD7991YRJZ-0RL application, or AD7991YRJZ-0RL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 12-bit resolution with ±1 LSB INL, I²C address flexibility (0x50/0x51), shutdown current ≤1 µA, VIN3/VREF dual-role terminal, and guaranteed no missing codes across full scale.
Technical Context
The AD7991YRJZ-0RL implements a SAR architecture with integrated track-and-hold and 4:1 analog multiplexer, enabling sequential sampling of four single-ended inputs or three inputs plus external reference. Its I²C interface supports standard (100 kHz), fast (400 kHz), and high-speed (up to 3.4 MHz) modes with clock stretching above 1.7 MHz.
Conversion is command-triggered via I²C read operations; the device remains in automatic shutdown between conversions. Reference can be derived internally from VDD (0 V to VDD input range) or externally applied to VIN3/VREF (1.2 V to VDD), with 69 kΩ input impedance and 35 pF capacitance during conversion phase.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12 bits - delivers 4096 distinct output codes with guaranteed no missing codes. |
| Conversion Time | 1 µs typical - enables up to ~95 kSPS throughput at 3.4 MHz SCL with clock stretching. |
| INL / DNL | ±1 LSB / ±0.9 LSB - ensures monotonicity and accurate end-point linearity for precision sensing. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with common industrial and automotive rails without level-shifting. |
| Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and harsh-environment industrial use. |

| Shutdown Current | 1 µA max - minimizes quiescent power in always-on monitoring systems with periodic wake-up. |
Pinout & Package
AD7991YRJZ-0RL is housed in an 8-lead SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm, with gull-wing leads and exposed pad for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SCL) | Digital Input | Serial clock line; requires external pull-up; supports 100 kHz–3.4 MHz I²C timing with defined tHIGH/tLOW. |
| 2 (SDA) | Digital I/O (Open-Drain) | Bidirectional data line; open-drain output with 0.4 V VOL @ 3 mA sink; needs external pull-up. |

| 5 (VIN2) | Analog Input | Single-ended channel 2 input; same leakage (±1 µA) and capacitance profile as VIN0–VIN1. |
| 6 (VIN3/VREF) | Configurable Terminal | Either channel 3 analog input or external reference source (1.2 V–VDD); 69 kΩ input impedance. |
| 7 (GND) | Analog Ground | Primary AGND reference for all analog circuitry; must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling. |
| 8 (VDD) | Power Supply | Single 2.7–5.5 V supply powering both analog core and digital interface; decoupling required. |

Applications
| System Monitoring | Battery-Powered Systems |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Real-time voltage, temperature, and current monitoring in industrial PLC backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 4-channel ADC digitizing sensor outputs at ≤95 kSPS with I²C burst reads for firmware-triggered diagnostics.

Use Scenario: Low-power data logging in handheld diagnostic tools with coin-cell or Li-ion supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Periodic wake-up ADC sampling (e.g., every 10 s) with 1 µA shutdown current preserving battery runtime. Use Value: 12-bit resolution maintains accuracy across 0–3.3 V battery discharge curve without recalibration. |
| Data Acquisition | Medical Instruments |
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Simultaneous sampling of 4 electrodes with <1 µs inter-channel skew enabled by internal T/H and sequencer. Use Value: Channel-to-channel isolation >90 dB prevents crosstalk-induced artifact in differential biosignal processing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-channel, I²C ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7995YRJZ-0RL | 10-bit resolution, ±0.4 LSB INL, lower THD (−85 dB), same pinout/package/I²C interface. | Lower cost for non-critical measurements where 12-bit precision is unnecessary (e.g., HVAC status sensing). | Select when SNR >61 dB suffices and BOM cost reduction is prioritized over resolution headroom. |
| ADS7828IDRCT | 12-bit SAR, SPI interface only, 50 kSPS max, 8-pin VSSOP, no auto shutdown (250 µA idle). | Requires MCU SPI peripheral and additional GPIOs; unsuitable for I²C-only host architectures. | Choose only if existing design uses SPI and board space allows larger VSSOP; not drop-in for AD7991YRJZ-0RL. |
Compared with AD7991YRJZ-0RL, AD7995YRJZ-0RL trades 2 bits of resolution for lower cost and improved THD, while ADS7828IDRCT sacrifices I²C compatibility and ultra-low shutdown current for marginally higher throughput-neither offers pin-for-pin replacement without interface or power architecture changes.

FAQ
What is the I²C address of AD7991YRJZ-0RL?
The AD7991YRJZ-0RL is the "-0" variant and uses a fixed 7-bit I²C address of 0x50 (1010000b). This allows coexistence with AD7991YRJZ-1RL (0x51) on the same bus. Address selection is hardwired-no external pins or registers configure it. The device responds only to this address during read/write transactions, ensuring deterministic communication in multi-device systems.
Does AD7991YRJZ-0RL require an external reference voltage?
No, AD7991YRJZ-0RL does not require an external reference. It supports internal reference derivation from VDD, enabling a 0 V to VDD analog input range. Alternatively, an external reference (1.2 V to VDD) may be applied to the VIN3/VREF pin. When using VDD as reference, the part achieves full-scale linearity without added components-reducing BOM count and layout complexity in cost-sensitive designs.
How does the sequencer function work in AD7991YRJZ-0RL?
The AD7991YRJZ-0RL sequencer automatically cycles through up to four analog inputs (VIN0–VIN3/VREF) upon each I²C read command. No register writes are needed to configure channel order-the default sequence is VIN0 → VIN1 → VIN2 → VIN3/VREF. Conversion results are returned in sequence over the I²C bus, enabling efficient burst reads without host-side channel management overhead.
What is the maximum sampling rate achievable with AD7991YRJZ-0RL?
The AD7991YRJZ-0RL achieves up to ~95 kSPS when operating at 3.4 MHz SCL with clock stretching enabled. Throughput is calculated as 17.5 × (1/fSCL) + 2 µs per conversion. At 400 kHz SCL (standard/fast mode), throughput drops to ~18 kSPS. The 1 µs conversion time is fixed; actual sample rate depends entirely on I²C bus speed and protocol overhead-not ADC core limitations.
Is AD7991YRJZ-0RL suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, AD7991YRJZ-0RL is explicitly qualified for automotive applications. Its Y-grade rating covers −40°C to +125°C operation, and it meets AEC-Q100 reliability standards. Key features supporting automotive use include robust ESD tolerance (1 kV HBM), wide VDD range (2.7 V–5.5 V) accommodating battery transients, and guaranteed performance across temperature extremes-making it appropriate for engine control, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems.
