Product details
Overview
ADS7800KU/1K from Texas Instruments is a 12-bit successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with internal sample/hold, reference, clock, and three-state parallel outputs. It delivers 333 kSPS throughput, ±10V/±5V bipolar input ranges, 2.7 µs max conversion time, and 72 dB SNR over temperature - used in precision data acquisition systems for industrial process control and test instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the ADS7800KU/1K datasheet, ADS7800KU/1K pinout, ADS7800KU/1K application, or ADS7800KU/1K equivalent, key selection considerations include its 24-pin SOIC package, dual-supply operation (+5V/–12V or –15V), ±1/2 LSB integral linearity, internal 2.0 V reference, and compatibility with microprocessor buses via R/C, CS, and HBE control logic.
Technical Context
The ADS7800KU/1K implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with laser-trimmed thin-film scaling resistors to support precise ±10V and ±5V input ranges. Its internal 2.0 V reference drives a stable conversion core, and aperture jitter is specified at 150 ps rms for high-frequency signal fidelity.
Control is managed through three TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs: R/C initiates conversion on falling edge, CS enables output drivers, and HBE selects 12-bit parallel or 8-bit/4-bit byte-mode output. BUSY provides status synchronization, and all digital outputs are three-state with defined VOL/VOH levels under load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - delivers 4.88 mV LSB step size in ±10V range, enabling sub-millivolt measurement resolution. |
| Throughput Rate | 333 kSPS - supports real-time sampling of signals up to ~160 kHz Nyquist bandwidth. |
| Integral Linearity | ±1/2 LSB - ensures monotonicity and <0.012% full-scale error across temperature for calibrated systems. |
| Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 72 dB - corresponds to ~11.9 effective bits (ENOB) at 47 kHz input, critical for dynamic signal analysis. |
| Conversion Time | 2.7 µs max - guarantees total acquisition + conversion within 3.0 µs, enabling tight timing control in burst-mode DAQ. |
| Power Dissipation | 215 mW max - operates from +5V digital and –15V analog supplies, requiring thermal management in dense layouts. |
| Input Ranges | ±10V or ±5V - selected by grounding IN1 or IN2; input impedance is 6.3 kΩ (±10V) or 4.2 kΩ (±5V), dictating source drive requirements. |
Pinout & Package
ADS7800KU/1K is housed in a 24-lead SOIC (DW) package with 0.300" body width and standard JEDEC MS-013 outline. Pin spacing is 0.050", and the package is RoHS-compliant with Level-3 moisture sensitivity rating (260°C peak reflow, 168 hr floor life).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1 | ±10V Analog Input | Connect signal source here for ±10V range; IN2 must be grounded. |
| IN2 | ±5V Analog Input | Connect signal source here for ±5V range; IN1 must be grounded. |
| REF | Internal Reference Output | 2.0 V ±0.1 V source; requires 22–47 µF tantalum bypass to AGND for stability. |
| HBE | High-Byte Enable | LOW = 12-bit parallel output on D0–D11; HIGH = 4 MSBs on D14–D17, D9–D12 forced LOW. |
| R/C | Read/Convert Control | Falling edge initiates conversion when CS=LOW and BUSY=HIGH; rising edge enables data read in Read Mode. |
| BUSY | Conversion Status | Active-low open-drain output; LOW during conversion, rising edge indicates data validity. |
| VSA, VSD | Analog/Digital +5V Supplies | Must be shorted externally and bypassed with 6.8 µF + 0.1 µF near pins; isolation prevents digital noise coupling. |
| –VS | Negative Supply | –12V or –15V analog supply; bypass with 1 µF tantalum; voltage affects full-scale error drift (±1/2 LSB over –13.5V to –11.4V). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Sample/Hold | Eliminates external S/H circuitry; 130 ns transient response ensures accurate capture of fast-rising signals. |
| Laser-Trimmed Scaling Resistors | Enables factory-calibrated ±10V/±5V input ranges without external gain-setting components. |
| Internal 2.0 V Reference | Stable ±50 mV output with 10 µA sourcing capability; reduces system BOM count and improves channel-to-channel matching. |
| Three-State Parallel Outputs | Supports direct connection to 8-bit or 12-bit microprocessor buses; HBE pin enables flexible data bus width configuration. |
| DC & AC Performance Guaranteed Over Temp | Specified from –40°C to +85°C: no missing codes, 72 dB SNR, 80 dB SFDR - suitable for unheated industrial enclosures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7804U | 12-bit, 100 kSPS, single-supply (+5V only), no internal reference - requires external REF and S/H. | Lower speed, simpler power scheme; suited for battery-powered portable instruments with relaxed throughput needs. | Select ADS7804U only if system-level simplification outweighs loss of 3.3× throughput and internal reference convenience. |
| AD7892BRZ-1 | 12-bit, 200 kSPS, ±10V input, internal reference, but uses serial SPI interface instead of parallel outputs. | Reduces PCB trace count and layout complexity; incompatible with legacy 12-bit parallel bus architectures. | Choose AD7892BRZ-1 when board space is constrained and microcontroller supports SPI - not for direct replacement in existing parallel-data systems. |
Compared with ADS7800KU/1K, ADS7804U trades speed and integration for lower power and single-supply operation, while AD7892BRZ-1 replaces parallel interface flexibility with serial simplicity and reduced pin count - neither offers identical timing, packaging, or bus compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the ADS7800KU/1K?
The ADS7800KU/1K is specified for a maximum throughput rate of 333 kSPS, with a guaranteed maximum conversion time of 2.7 µs and total acquisition + conversion time of 3.0 µs over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). This rate is enabled by its internal factory-trimmed clock and optimized charge-redistribution SAR architecture.
Does the ADS7800KU/1K require an external reference voltage?
No, the ADS7800KU/1K includes an internal 2.0 V reference (±0.1 V) available at pin 3 (REF), which is laser-trimmed and buffered for stability. While it can drive light external loads (≤10 µA), the reference is intended primarily for internal use; external buffering is required if routing to other devices.
How does the HBE pin affect data output format on the ADS7800KU/1K?
When HBE is LOW, the ADS7800KU/1K outputs all 12 bits in parallel on pins D0–D11. When HBE is HIGH, it enters byte-mode: pins D14–D17 carry the 4 MSBs, and pins D9–D12 are forced LOW - enabling interface with 8-bit data buses while preserving access to full resolution across two cycles.
What power supply voltages are required for proper operation of the ADS7800KU/1K?
The ADS7800KU/1K requires three supplies: +5V applied to both VSA (pin 24) and VSD (pin 23), which must be shorted externally; and a negative analog supply of –12V or –15V on –VS (pin 22). The device draws up to 25 mA from +5V and 6 mA from –15V, totaling ≤215 mW max power dissipation.
Can the ADS7800KU/1K operate in standalone mode without a microprocessor interface?
Yes, the ADS7800KU/1K supports standalone operation using only the R/C pin: tie CS and HBE to GND, apply periodic falling-edge pulses to R/C, and read 12-bit data on the rising edge of BUSY. This eliminates bus arbitration logic and is ideal for dedicated analog input ports in fixed-function systems.
