Product details
Overview
ADS803E/1K from Texas Instruments is a 12-bit, 5 MSPS pipelined analog-to-digital converter with internal reference, 82 dB SFDR at Nyquist, 69 dB SNR, and ±0.25 LSB DLE - designed for high-fidelity IF/baseband digitization in communications and test instrumentation systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADS803E/1K datasheet, ADS803E/1K pinout, ADS803E/1K application, or ADS803E/1K equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SSOP-28 package mapping, over-range flag behavior, flexible 2Vp-p/5Vp-p input range configuration, and real-world interface guidance for single-ended and differential driving.
Technical Context
The ADS803E/1K employs a high-bandwidth track-and-hold with 270 MHz –3dB input bandwidth and 4 ps rms aperture jitter to preserve signal integrity up to Nyquist. Its digital error-correction logic ensures no missing codes and ±0.25 LSB typical DLE across –40°C to +85°C.
It supports programmable full-scale input ranges (2Vp-p or 5Vp-p) via SEL/VREF pin strapping, delivers 0.09 LSBrms input-referred noise in 5Vp-p mode, and provides an asynchronous over-range (OVR) flag synchronized to pipeline latency (6 clock cycles).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit tested - guarantees monotonicity and no missing codes per specification. |
| Sampling Rate | 5 MSPS maximum - enables digitization of signals up to 2.5 MHz without aliasing under Nyquist criterion. |
| SFDR | 82 dBFS at 2.48 MHz input - suppresses largest harmonic by >630× relative to full-scale signal amplitude. |
| SNR | 69 dB at 2.48 MHz - corresponds to ~11.2 effective bits for clean baseband signal capture. |
| Differential Linearity | ±0.25 LSB typical - ensures minimal code-width variation critical for imaging linearity. |
| Input Range Options | 2Vp-p (best spurious performance) or 5Vp-p (lowest input-referred noise: 0.09 LSBrms). |
| Power Dissipation | 115 mW at 5V supply - enables thermal management in dense mixed-signal PCB layouts. |
| Data Latency | 6 clock cycles - defines fixed delay between sample edge and valid output word availability. |
Pinout & Package
ADS803E/1K is housed in a 28-pin SSOP (DB) package with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin assignments are validated per TI SBAS074B datasheet Rev. September 2002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OVR (Pin 1) | Over-range indicator output | Active-high flag signaling input voltage exceeding REFT/REFB bounds; synchronized to pipeline latency. |
| B1–B12 (Pins 2–13) | Parallel digital output bus | 12-bit straight offset binary data; MSB = B1, LSB = B12; CMOS/TTL compatible with VDRV-supplied logic levels. |
| CLK (Pin 14) | Convert clock input | Rising-edge triggered; requires <2 ns rise/fall time and low jitter (<4 ps rms) for optimal SNR. |
| OE (Pin 15) | Output enable control | Active-low; enables 3-state outputs with 2–40 ns enable/disable timing for bus sharing. |
| +VS (Pins 16, 27) | Analog power supply | +4.7V to +5.3V; powers analog core and internal reference; must be decoupled per Figure 12. |
| SEL (Pin 18) | Input range select | Strap to VREF (2Vp-p) or GND (5Vp-p) to configure full-scale span = 2 × VREF. |
| VREF (Pin 19) | Reference voltage select | Outputs +1V or +2.5V internal reference; sets input range when strapped with SEL. |
| REFB/REFT (Pins 20, 22) | Reference ladder terminals | Provide bottom (+1V) and top (+3V) reference points; require 0.1 µF + 10 µF bypassing. |
| CM (Pin 21) | Common-mode voltage node | High-impedance midpoint (~+2.5V); used to bias IN/IN inputs; external resistive divider recommended. |
| IN / IN (Pins 23, 25) | Differential analog inputs | Accept single-ended or differential signals; 20 pF input capacitance; track-mode bandwidth = 270 MHz. |
| VDRV (Pin 28) | Digital output driver supply | Independent 3V–5V supply for output logic levels - enables interfacing to 3V or 5V systems without level shifters. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal reference with dual voltage options | +1V or +2.5V selectable via SEL/VREF strap - eliminates need for external reference in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Programmable full-scale input range | 2Vp-p (optimized SFDR) or 5Vp-p (0.09 LSBrms noise) - adapts to front-end amplifier headroom and dynamic range needs. |
| Over-range detection with pipeline-sync flag | OVR pin asserts high on out-of-range condition and holds until next conversion completes - enables real-time gain-ranging feedback. |
| Digital error correction | Guarantees ±0.25 LSB typical DLE and no missing codes - essential for CCD scanner pixel linearity and medical imaging fidelity. |
| Separate digital output supply (VDRV) | Allows independent 3V or 5V logic interfacing while analog section runs at +5V - prevents digital noise coupling into analog domain. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, 12-bit ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS804E/1K | 10 MSPS sampling rate; identical pinout and register map; higher power (145 mW). | Required for systems needing >5 MSPS throughput; same PCB layout but higher clock jitter sensitivity. | Select ADS804E/1K only if 10 MSPS is mandatory; verify clock source jitter <2 ps rms to maintain SNR. |
| ADS805E/1K | 20 MSPS sampling rate; same package; higher power (175 mW); reduced SFDR (78 dB) at Nyquist. | Suitable for wideband IF sampling (e.g., 8–12 MHz); trades spurious performance for speed. | Choose ADS805E/1K for undersampling architectures where input bandwidth exceeds 5 MHz. |
Compared with ADS803E/1K, ADS804E/1K offers double the sampling rate at the cost of 26% higher power and stricter clock jitter requirements, while ADS805E/1K extends bandwidth further but sacrifices 4 dB SFDR - making ADS803E/1K optimal for balanced speed, noise, and spurious performance in 2–5 MHz applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the ADS803E/1K?
The ADS803E/1K supports a maximum sampling rate of 5 million samples per second (5 MSPS), as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SBAS074B datasheet. This rate is specified at full temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), +5V supply, and 5Vp-p input range. Exceeding 5 MSPS is not guaranteed and may degrade SFDR and SNR performance.
Does the ADS803E/1K require an external reference voltage?
No, the ADS803E/1K includes an integrated bandgap reference that provides +1V or +2.5V outputs selectable via pin strapping (SEL and VREF). External reference operation is optional and enabled by connecting SEL to +VS; the internal reference is then disabled and VREF becomes an input for an external 0.5V–2.5V reference.
How does the OVR pin function on the ADS803E/1K?
The OVR pin on the ADS803E/1K is an active-high over-range indicator that asserts HIGH whenever the analog input voltage exceeds either REFT (+3V) or falls below REFB (+1V). It updates synchronously with the 6-clock-cycle pipeline latency and remains asserted until the input returns within range and a new conversion completes.
Can the ADS803E/1K interface directly with 3V logic systems?
Yes, the ADS803E/1K supports direct 3V logic interfacing via the VDRV pin (Pin 28), which supplies the digital output drivers independently from the +VS analog supply. Applying +3V to VDRV configures CMOS/TTL-compatible outputs with VOH ≥ +2.4V and VOL ≤ +0.4V at 0.5mA load, eliminating external level shifters.
What is the input capacitance and track-mode bandwidth of the ADS803E/1K?
The ADS803E/1K has a specified input capacitance of 20 pF and a track-mode input bandwidth of 270 MHz (–3dB point with –3dBFS input), as measured in the Electrical Characteristics section. This wide bandwidth enables faithful capture of fast-rising signals and minimizes harmonic distortion in high-frequency applications like IF sampling.
