Product details
Overview
ADS7828EB/250G4 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 50kHz sampling rate in high-speed I²C mode. It operates from 2.7V to 5V and targets isolated voltage monitoring and remote data acquisition systems where low power and serial simplicity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the ADS7828EB/250G4 datasheet, ADS7828EB/250G4 pinout, ADS7828EB/250G4 application, or ADS7828EB/250G4 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed no missing codes, TSSOP-16 package compatibility, I²C high-speed mode timing compliance (3.4MHz SCL), internal reference drift (15ppm/°C), and channel-to-channel isolation (120dB).
Technical Context
The ADS7828EB/250G4 implements a capacitive redistribution SAR architecture with integrated sample-and-hold, driven by an asynchronous internal clock. Conversion is initiated via I²C command byte with configurable single-ended/differential input mode and per-channel selection (CH0–CH7).
It supports full I²C protocol compliance across standard (100kHz), fast (400kHz), and high-speed (3.4MHz) modes, with hardware address bits A0/A1 enabling up to four devices on one bus. Power-down states are controlled via PD1/PD0 bits, including independent control of internal reference and ADC core.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit SAR with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and deterministic code transitions across full scale. |
| Sampling Rate | 50kHz maximum in I²C high-speed mode - enables real-time monitoring of fast transients in supply rails or sensor outputs. |
| Integral Linearity Error | ±1 LSB (max) - ensures ≤0.024% full-scale error for precision measurement without calibration. |
| Reference | Internal 2.5V ±0.025V (2.475V–2.525V) with 15ppm/°C drift - eliminates external reference component while maintaining accuracy over –40°C to +85°C. |
| I²C Compatibility | Standard, Fast, and High-Speed modes (100kHz/400kHz/3.4MHz) - supports flexible host MCU integration without protocol translation. |
| Supply Range | 2.7V to 5.0V - allows direct operation from 3.3V or 5V system rails without LDO regulation. |
| Channel Count | 8-channel analog multiplexer with COM pin - enables differential or single-ended measurements across eight inputs using shared reference path. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 (PW) package with 0.65mm pitch, thermally enhanced for low-power industrial environments. Pinout validated per TI SBAS181C datasheet Rev. March 2005.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH7 | Analog input channels | Eight selectable single-ended or differential analog inputs; each requires ≤25pF source capacitance for full 12-bit settling. |
| GND | Analog ground | Separate AGND return path minimizes digital noise coupling into conversion path. |
| REFIN/REFOUT | Reference input/output | 2.5V internal reference output or external reference input (0.05V–VDD); impedance 110Ω when active, 1GΩ when disabled. |
| COM | Common analog reference | Shared negative input for differential measurements or ground reference for single-ended mode. |
| A0, A1 | Slave address bits | Hardware-configurable I²C address bits (10010xx) - enable up to four ADS7828EB/250G4 devices on same bus. |
| SCL, SDA | I²C serial interface | Open-drain CMOS lines supporting 3.4MHz high-speed mode; require pull-ups per I²C bus load (CB ≤ 400pF). |
| +VDD | Power supply | Single 2.7V–5.0V supply powering analog core, digital logic, and internal reference; quiescent current as low as 400nA in full power-down. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No missing codes | Guaranteed monotonic 12-bit transfer function - eliminates code ambiguities in closed-loop control feedback paths. |
| Channel-to-channel isolation | 120dB typical - prevents crosstalk between adjacent analog inputs during multiplexed acquisition. |
| Programmable power-down | Four discrete states (ADC only, reference only, both off, both on) - enables dynamic power scaling per measurement cycle. |
| Differential & single-ended mode | Configurable per-channel via command byte SD bit - supports ratiometric sensor interfaces and common-mode noise rejection. |
| Internal reference stability | 15ppm/°C drift with 2.5V ±1% tolerance - reduces BOM count and improves long-term accuracy vs. external references. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit, I²C-interfaced ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-channel, 12-bit, SPI interface only; no I²C support; 100kSPS max; TSSOP-16 | Requires SPI-capable host MCU; lacks I²C address bits A0/A1 for multi-device bus sharing | Select when SPI infrastructure exists and higher throughput (100kSPS) is needed; not drop-in for I²C designs. |
| MCP3208-I/P | 8-channel, 12-bit, SPI interface; no internal reference; external VREF required; DIP-16 | Needs external 2.5V reference and level-shifting for 3.3V/5V mixed systems; larger through-hole footprint | Choose for legacy DIP layouts or when external reference flexibility (e.g., 4.096V) is required; incompatible with I²C bus topology. |
Compared with ADS7828EB/250G4, ADS7822U offers higher speed but removes I²C compatibility and address configurability, while MCP3208-I/P lacks integrated reference and requires board-level redesign for serial interface and packaging - making ADS7828EB/250G4 optimal for space-constrained, multi-node I²C systems needing self-contained accuracy.
