Product details
Overview
ADS7828EB/250 from Texas Instruments is a 12-bit, 8-channel SAR analog-to-digital converter with I²C interface, internal 2.5V reference, ±1 LSB integral linearity error, and 50 kHz sampling rate in high-speed I²C mode. It operates from 2.7V to 5V and targets precision voltage-supply monitoring and isolated data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADS7828EB/250 datasheet, ADS7828EB/250 pinout, ADS7828EB/250 application, or ADS7828EB/250 equivalent, key selection considerations include its TSSOP-16 package, I²C address configuration via A0/A1 pins, internal reference accuracy (±1 LSB INL), power-down modes, and channel-to-channel isolation (120 dB).
Technical Context
The ADS7828EB/250 implements a capacitive redistribution successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with integrated sample-and-hold, enabling no-missing-codes performance across its full 12-bit range. Its internal asynchronous clock eliminates external timing dependencies, and conversion is triggered by command-byte reception over I²C.
It supports all three I²C modes-standard (100 kHz), fast (400 kHz), and high-speed (3.4 MHz)-with bus timing compliance verified per I²C specification. The device uses hardware-addressed slave operation with fixed prefix 10010 and user-configurable A0/A1 bits, allowing up to four devices on one bus.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit SAR ADC with guaranteed no missing codes - ensures monotonicity for closed-loop control and calibration applications. |
| Sampling Rate | 50 kHz maximum in I²C high-speed mode - enables real-time monitoring of fast-varying supply rails or sensor outputs. |
| Integral Linearity Error | ±1 LSB (typical) - supports <0.025% full-scale accuracy for high-fidelity transducer interfacing. |
| Reference | Internal 2.5V ±0.025V (2.475–2.525 V) - eliminates need for external reference in 2.7–3.6V systems; drift ≤15 ppm/°C. |
| Supply Range | 2.7V to 5.0V - compatible with both 3.3V and 5V microcontroller I/O domains without level-shifting. |
| I²C Compatibility | Standard, Fast, and High-Speed modes - allows flexible integration into legacy and high-throughput embedded buses. |
| Channel Isolation | 120 dB - prevents crosstalk between multiplexed inputs in mixed-signal environments like battery pack monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package (PW designation), 4.4 mm × 5.0 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH7 | Analog input channels | Eight single-ended or differential analog inputs; each has ≤25 pF capacitance and ±1 µA leakage - minimizes loading on high-impedance sources. |
| COM | Common analog reference | Return path for differential measurements; must be tied to system analog ground or sensor common for accurate ratiometric readings. |
| GND | Analog ground | Separate analog return; requires star grounding with REFOUT/REFIN to maintain reference integrity and noise immunity. |
| REFIN/REFOUT | Reference I/O | 2.5V output when internal ref enabled; accepts external 0.05–VDD reference - enables full-scale optimization for 0–VDD input ranges. |
| +VDD | Power supply | Single 2.7–5.0V supply powers analog core, digital logic, and internal reference - simplifies power architecture. |
| A0, A1 | Slave address bits | Hardwired to VDD or GND at power-up to set bits 1–0 of 7-bit I²C address (10010xx) - supports multi-device bus topology. |
| SCL | I²C clock input | Open-drain compatible; supports 100 kHz to 3.4 MHz - determines max throughput: 2 kHz (std), 8 kHz (fast), 50 kHz (HS). |
| SDA | I²C data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external pull-up - carries command bytes, channel data, and ACK/NACK signals. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 8-channel analog multiplexer | Hardware-selectable single-ended or differential input configurations per channel - reduces external signal conditioning components. |
| Three I²C speed modes | Configurable throughput from 2 kHz to 50 kHz without changing firmware - adapts to host controller capability and noise environment. |
| Four power-down states | Independent control of internal reference and ADC core - achieves 400 nA full shutdown current for ultra-low-power remote sensing. |
| 120 dB channel-to-channel isolation | Minimizes crosstalk during sequential scanning of high-gain sensor inputs - critical for multi-cell battery voltage monitoring. |
| ±1 LSB integral linearity (ADS7828EB grade) | Guaranteed monotonicity and <0.025% full-scale error - meets requirements for industrial process control and medical diagnostics. |
Applications
| Voltage-Supply Monitoring | Isolated Data Acquisition |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time tracking of multiple DC rail voltages (e.g., 1.2V, 3.3V, 5V, 12V) in telecom power shelves or server PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 12-bit ADC digitizes each rail via multiplexed inputs; internal 2.5V reference provides stable scaling independent of VDD variation. Use Value: Enables precise margin testing and fault logging without external reference or op-amp buffers - reduces BOM count by ≥3 components per monitored rail. |
Use Scenario: Digitizing sensor outputs across galvanic isolation barriers in industrial PLC analog input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: ADC resides on field-side; I²C interface connects to isolated digital coupler (e.g., ISO1540); low quiescent current extends isolated-side battery life. Use Value: Eliminates need for isolated SPI or parallel interfaces - cuts isolation component cost by 40% and layout area by >30% versus discrete isolator + ADC solutions. |
| Transducer Interfaces | Battery-Operated Systems |
Use Scenario: Reading bridge-based pressure or load-cell sensors in portable test equipment with 2.7V coin-cell supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured for differential inputs with COM tied to bridge mid-point; internal reference rejects common-mode noise; 50 kHz sampling captures dynamic events. Use Value: Achieves 12-bit resolution without external instrumentation amplifier - extends battery runtime by eliminating 1.5 mA op-amp bias current. |
Use Scenario: Monitoring individual cell voltages and temperatures in 4S Li-ion battery packs for portable medical devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Scans 8 cells sequentially using CH0–CH7; power-down between conversions reduces average current to <1 µA in sleep mode. Use Value: Supports >1-year shelf life on CR2032; 120 dB isolation prevents false overvoltage alarms during cell balancing transients. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit, I²C-compatible ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7828E/250 | ±2 LSB integral linearity (vs. ±1 LSB for ADS7828EB/250); otherwise identical pinout, interface, and specs. | Suitable for cost-sensitive applications where <0.05% full-scale accuracy suffices (e.g., basic supply supervision). | Select ADS7828E/250 only if ±2 LSB INL meets system calibration budget; ADS7828EB/250 required for metrology-grade precision. |
| MCP3221-E/P | Single-channel, 12-bit, I²C ADC; no internal reference; requires external 2.5V or 5V reference; SOT-23-6 package. | Used where channel count is low and board space is constrained; lacks multiplexer and internal reference flexibility. | Choose MCP3221-E/P only for single-input, space-constrained designs; ADS7828EB/250 preferred for multi-channel, reference-integrated systems. |
Compared with ADS7828E/250, the ADS7828EB/250 delivers tighter linearity for calibrated measurement chains; compared with MCP3221-E/P, it offers 8× channel density, integrated reference, and superior isolation - making it optimal for compact, multi-rail monitoring in battery-powered and isolated systems.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed integral linearity error for ADS7828EB/250?
The ADS7828EB/250 guarantees ±1 LSB integral linearity error over the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range and 2.7V to 5.0V supply, measured with internal 2.5V reference. This corresponds to <0.025% full-scale accuracy and distinguishes it from the ADS7828E/250 grade (±2 LSB). The ADS7828EB/250 datasheet specifies this value under "SYSTEM PERFORMANCE" with test conditions clearly defined.
Does ADS7828EB/250 require an external reference for operation?
No, ADS7828EB/250 includes an internal 2.5V reference that is factory-trimmed and drift-compensated (15 ppm/°C), enabling full 12-bit operation with 2.7–3.6V supplies. When using a 5V supply, an external reference ≥0.05V is recommended to maximize dynamic range - but the ADS7828EB/250 functions autonomously with its internal reference enabled by default at power-up.
How many devices can share the same I²C bus with ADS7828EB/250?
Up to four ADS7828EB/250 devices can coexist on a single I²C bus. Each device uses a 7-bit slave address with fixed prefix 10010 and two programmable bits (A1, A0), yielding addresses 1001000, 1001001, 1001010, and 1001011. Address selection is latched at power-up based on A1/A0 pin states - no software configuration is needed.
What is the minimum I²C clock frequency supported by ADS7828EB/250?
The ADS7828EB/250 supports standard-mode I²C at 100 kHz minimum clock frequency, delivering 2 kHz effective sampling throughput. It does not operate below 100 kHz - lower frequencies violate the I²C bus free time (tBUF ≥ 4.7 µs) and START condition hold time (tHD;STA ≥ 4.0 µs) specifications defined in the ADS7828EB/250 datasheet.
Can ADS7828EB/250 perform differential measurements?
Yes, ADS7828EB/250 supports true differential input pairs (e.g., CH0+/CH0–, CH1+/CH1–) via command-byte configuration (SD = 0). Each pair uses COM as the common-mode reference, and the device maintains 120 dB channel-to-channel isolation even during differential scanning - critical for rejecting common-mode noise in transducer interfaces.
