Product details
Overview
ADS8341E/2K5 from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit, 4-channel SAR analog-to-digital converter with synchronous serial interface, single-supply operation (2.7V–5V), and up to 100kHz throughput. It features 4 single-ended or 2 differential input channels, 86dB SINAD at 10kHz, and integrated multiplexer-ideal for portable data loggers and battery-powered measurement systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADS8341E/2K5 datasheet, ADS8341E/2K5 pinout, ADS8341E/2K5 application, or ADS8341E/2K5 equivalent, key selection considerations include its SSOP-16 package, 16-cycle conversion time, shutdown mode (<15µW), VREF range (0.5V to VCC), and CMOS-compatible serial timing with BUSY/DCLK/DIN/DOUT control.
Technical Context
The ADS8341E/2K5 implements a capacitive redistribution SAR architecture with an on-chip 4-channel analog multiplexer and unbuffered reference input. Its conversion process requires 24 clock cycles (8 for control byte, 16 for result) in external clock mode or internal clock generation when PD1=1/PD0=0.
It supports two operating modes: single-ended (CHx vs COM) or differential (CHx vs CHy), selected via SGL/DIF and A2–A0 bits in the 8-bit control byte. Input voltage range scales directly with VREF (0.5V to +VCC), and LSB size equals VREF/65536 - e.g., 76µV at 5V reference.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit SAR ADC with no missing codes guaranteed over full temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). |
| Throughput Rate | Up to 100kHz sampling rate using 2.4MHz DCLK; conversion time fixed at 16 clock cycles. |
| SINAD / SNR | 86dB SINAD and ≥90dB SNR at 10kHz input (5Vp-p, +5V supply); enables high-fidelity signal capture in test equipment. |
| Input Configuration | 4-channel single-ended (vs COM) or 2-channel differential; configurable via serial control bits without hardware change. |
| Power Dissipation | 7.5–10mW at 100kHz/+5V; drops to <15µW in shutdown mode (SHDN = LOW), critical for battery life extension. |
| Reference Range | VREF accepts 0.5V to +VCC; sets full-scale input span (e.g., 0–2.5V at 2.5V reference), enabling flexible sensor scaling. |
| Integral Linearity | ±8 LSB max INL (ADS8341E grade) ensures accurate multi-channel calibration in industrial process control. |
Pinout & Package
ADS8341E/2K5 is housed in a 16-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package) with 0.65mm pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, and rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +VCC (Pins 1, 9) | Primary power supply | Dual power pins reduce IR drop; supports 2.7V–5V single supply - compatible with Li-ion and 3.3V/5V logic rails. |
| CH0–CH3 (Pins 2–5) | Analog input channels | Four independent inputs selectable via multiplexer; support single-ended or differential acquisition without external switches. |
| COM (Pin 6) | Analog ground reference | Sets zero-code voltage in single-ended mode; must be connected to system analog ground or bias point. |
| SHDN (Pin 7) | Shutdown control | Active-low enable: pulls device into sub-15µW state; recovery is instantaneous - no wake-up delay before first valid conversion. |
| VREF (Pin 8) | Unbuffered reference input | Directly drives CDAC array; current draw varies with conversion rate and VREF value (e.g., ~13µA at 2.5V/100kHz). |
| GND (Pins 10, 11) | Analog ground return | Dual GND pins isolate analog return path; must connect to low-impedance analog ground plane to maintain 86dB SINAD. |
| DOUT (Pin 12) | Serial data output | Tri-state when CS = HIGH; outputs MSB-first straight-binary code on DCLK falling edge - compatible with SPI master. |
| BUSY (Pin 13) | Conversion status indicator | Active-high during conversion in external clock mode; remains LOW during conversion in internal clock mode - simplifies timing handshaking. |
| DIN (Pin 14) | Serial data input | Latches 8-bit control byte (S-A2-A1-A0-xx-SGL/DIF-PD1-PD0) on DCLK rising edge; over-voltage tolerant to 5.5V. |
| CS (Pin 15) | Chip select | Enables serial interface and initiates conversion sequence; falling edge triggers acquisition phase - critical for synchronization. |
| DCLK (Pin 16) | Serial clock input | Drives both data I/O and SAR conversion in external mode (max 2.4MHz); must be held LOW during internal clock conversions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 4-channel multiplexer | Eliminates need for external analog switches in multi-sensor systems - reduces BOM count and layout area in portable DAQ. |
| Configurable single-ended/differential mode | Single control bit (SGL/DIF) changes input topology - enables noise rejection in EMI-prone environments without redesign. |
| Wide VREF range (0.5V to +VCC) | Permits direct interfacing with low-voltage sensors (e.g., 1.8V MEMS) while maintaining full 16-bit resolution scaling. |
| Two clock operation modes | Internal clock mode decouples conversion timing from host MCU clock - simplifies firmware and improves noise immunity. |
| Low-power shutdown (<15µW) | Extends battery runtime in intermittent-sampling applications like environmental monitors - exit latency is zero. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8342E/2K5 | Pin-compatible upgrade with improved specs: ±6 LSB INL (vs ±8), 88dB SINAD, and lower 5mW power at 100kHz/+5V. | Preferred for new designs requiring tighter linearity or lower noise; identical interface and layout - no PCB change needed. | Select ADS8342E/2K5 when higher DC accuracy and AC performance are required without altering firmware or layout. |
| ADS7841E/2K5 | 12-bit predecessor; same SSOP-16 pinout, 4-channel MUX, and serial interface but lower resolution and 72dB SINAD. | Suitable for cost-sensitive applications where 12-bit resolution suffices (e.g., basic voltage monitoring), not for precision measurement. | Choose ADS7841E/2K5 only if legacy compatibility or BOM cost reduction outweighs need for 16-bit fidelity and noise performance. |
Compared with ADS8341E/2K5, ADS8342E/2K5 delivers measurable improvement in linearity and dynamic range with zero layout impact, while ADS7841E/2K5 trades resolution and AC specs for lower unit cost - making each viable only within distinct accuracy and budget constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the ADS8341E/2K5?
The ADS8341E/2K5 achieves a maximum throughput rate of 100kHz when driven by a 2.4MHz DCLK in external clock mode. This requires exactly 24 clock cycles per conversion (8 for control byte, 16 for result). At lower DCLK frequencies, the sampling rate scales linearly - e.g., 1.2MHz DCLK yields 50kHz throughput. The ADS8341E/2K5 maintains full 16-bit performance across this range.
Does the ADS8341E/2K5 require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the ADS8341E/2K5 requires an external reference voltage applied to the VREF pin. It accepts any stable voltage from 0.5V to +VCC (2.7V–5V), and the full-scale input range is 0V to VREF in single-ended mode. The reference is unbuffered and draws current proportional to conversion rate - e.g., ~13µA at 2.5V/100kHz. The ADS8341E/2K5 does not include an internal reference.
How does the SHDN pin function on the ADS8341E/2K5?
The SHDN pin on the ADS8341E/2K5 is an active-low shutdown control. When pulled LOW, the device enters a sub-15µW power state while retaining configuration. Upon returning HIGH, the ADS8341E/2K5 resumes operation instantly - the first conversion after wake-up is fully valid with no stabilization delay. This enables precise duty-cycled operation in battery-powered systems without firmware overhead.
Can the ADS8341E/2K5 perform differential measurements?
Yes, the ADS8341E/2K5 supports true differential input acquisition across two of its four channels (e.g., CH0–CH1 or CH2–CH3) by setting the SGL/DIF control bit LOW in the serial command byte. In this mode, the converter measures the voltage difference between the selected pair, providing common-mode noise rejection. The ADS8341E/2K5 specifies >100dB channel-to-channel isolation, ensuring minimal crosstalk during simultaneous differential reads.
What package type and temperature range does the ADS8341E/2K5 use?
The ADS8341E/2K5 is packaged in a 16-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package) with 0.65mm lead pitch, designated DBQ by Texas Instruments. It is fully specified and tested over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C, with guaranteed performance including INL, SINAD, and throughput across this range. The SSOP-16 footprint is compatible with standard reflow processes and automated optical inspection.
