Product details
Overview
LTC1099CSW#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-speed, 8-bit analog-to-digital converter with integrated sample-and-hold, designed for microprocessor interfacing in real-time data acquisition systems. It delivers 2.5 µs conversion time in both RD and WR/RD modes, supports 2.5 V/µs input slew rate, operates from a single 5 V supply, and features latched three-state outputs with overflow flag for cascading. It is used in precision instrumentation, digital oscilloscopes, and embedded control loop sampling.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1099CSW#PBF datasheet, LTC1099CSW#PBF pinout, LTC1099CSW#PBF application, or LTC1099CSW#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its internal S/H acquisition time (240 ns), total unadjusted error (±1 LSB), TC pin programmability, 20-pin SOIC-W package compatibility, and support for standalone, RD, and WR/RD operation modes without external clock.
Technical Context
The LTC1099CSW#PBF implements a 2-step semi-flash ADC architecture using dual 4-bit flash converters and a shared switched-capacitor comparator, reducing comparator count to 16 while maintaining 8-bit resolution. Its internal sample-and-hold has 110 ns aperture time and 240 ns acquisition time, enabling digitization of up to 156 kHz full-scale sine inputs without external hold circuitry.
Digital interface timing is fully edge-sensitive and internally generated: RD or WR falling edges trigger S/H hold and conversion start; INT asserts low upon completion; outputs update simultaneously after conversion. The TC pin allows user adjustment of conversion time via external resistor networks, supporting trade-offs between speed and accuracy.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8 bits with no missing codes - guarantees monotonic transfer function and deterministic digital output mapping across full input range. |
| Conversion Time | 2.5 µs typical in both RD and WR/RD modes - enables 384 kSPS sustained throughput when interleaved with minimal dead time (700 ns min inter-conversion delay). |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1 LSB maximum - includes offset, gain, linearity, and hold-step errors; ensures absolute accuracy without factory calibration or trimming. |
| Slew Rate Support | 2.5 V/µs - matches internal S/H tracking capability, allowing direct digitization of fast-rising signals up to 156 kHz at 5 VP-P without signal distortion. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - single 5 V rail operation simplifies power design and ensures compatibility with TTL/CMOS logic families. |
| Power Dissipation | 75 mW maximum at 5 V - enables use in thermally constrained industrial and portable systems without active cooling. |
| Reference Input Range | REF– to VCC - supports flexible scaling (e.g., 0–5 V, ±2.5 V) as long as REF+ > REF– and both remain within supply rails. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SW - 20-lead plastic small-outline (wide, 0.300 inch body width), RoHS-compliant, surface-mountable with standard reflow profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (1) | Analog input | High-impedance node with 60 pF capacitance and 550 Ω series resistance - requires low-output-impedance driver (e.g., LT1006) to avoid settling errors. |
| DB0–DB7 (2–5, 14–17) | Parallel digital output bus | LSB-to-MSB latched outputs with three-state control - directly connectable to 8-bit microprocessor data buses; high-impedance when CS = high or RD inactive. |
| WR/RDY (6) | Mode-dependent I/O | In WR/RD mode: WR input (edge-triggered conversion start); in RD mode: open-drain RDY output (requires pull-up) for processor-ready handshake. |
| MODE (7) | Interface mode select | Connect to VCC for WR/RD mode; connect to GND for RD mode - no internal pull-down, so external bias required. |
| RD (8) | Read strobe / conversion trigger | Falling edge initiates conversion in RD mode; enables output drivers when CS = low - synchronizes data capture with processor read cycle. |
| INT (9) | Interrupt output | Active-low open-drain flag signaling conversion completion - used to generate CPU interrupt or enable data latch in external logic. |
| GND (10) | Analog ground reference | Primary ground return for analog section - must be tied to clean ground plane separate from digital noise sources per layout guidelines. |
| REF– (11), REF+ (12) | Reference voltage terminals | Define full-scale range (VREF = REF+ − REF−); internal 3.2 kΩ resistive ladder - requires low-impedance, low-noise reference source. |
| CS (13) | Chip select | High disables all outputs and ignores inputs - enables multi-device sharing of data/address bus without contention. |
| OFL (18) | Overflow indicator | Active-low signal asserted when VIN > VREF - used for range checking or cascading multiple LTC1099 devices for extended resolution (e.g., 9-bit). |
| TC (19) | Conversion time adjust | Analog voltage input controlling internal timing - open-circuit = 2.5 µs; resistor to VCC slows conversion; resistor to GND speeds it up. |
| VCC (20) | Positive supply | 4.75–5.25 V power rail - bypassing with 4.7 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic near pin is mandatory for SNR performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Built-in sample-and-hold | Eliminates need for external S/H circuitry; 240 ns acquisition time and 2.5 V/µs tracking rate support wideband signal digitization. |
| Three operating modes | RD mode (processor-controlled), WR/RD mode (separate write/read), and Stand-Alone mode (CS/RD held low) - adapts to diverse system architectures. |
| User-adjustable conversion time | TC pin enables fine-tuning of conversion speed vs. accuracy trade-off via external resistor - supports optimization for specific signal bandwidths. |
| Overflow output (OFL) | Enables daisy-chaining multiple LTC1099 units to achieve higher resolution (e.g., 9-bit) without external logic or FPGA resources. |
| No missing codes & no user trims | Guaranteed monotonicity and ±1 LSB total unadjusted error eliminate post-manufacture calibration - reduces test time and BOM cost. |
| Edge-sensitive timing | All digital inputs respond to signal edges only - removes dependency on pulse width or external timing circuits, simplifying MCU firmware. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1406CMS8#PBF | 20 MSPS vs. 384 kSPS; 48.5 dB SINAD vs. ~46 dB SNR at 10 kHz; requires external S/H; 5 V only. | Targets video or IF sampling, not general-purpose data acquisition; higher speed demands more aggressive layout and decoupling. | Select LTC1406 only when >1 MSPS throughput is mandatory; LTC1099CSW#PBF remains superior for <500 kSPS with integrated S/H and simpler interface. |
| MAX1186EEE+ | 8-bit, 1 MSPS; internal reference; SPI interface; no OFL or TC pin; ±0.5 LSB INL; 3.3 V or 5 V operation. | Designed for compact microcontroller-peripheral integration; lacks parallel bus and overflow cascade capability. | Choose MAX1186 for space-constrained, low-pin-count designs with SPI host; LTC1099CSW#PBF preferred for legacy 8-bit bus systems and multi-ADC cascading. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1099CSW#PBF?
The LTC1099CSW#PBF is specified for commercial temperature operation from 0°C to 70°C. This range is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies to all DC and AC specifications unless otherwise noted. The device uses the "C" grade suffix, distinguishing it from the "I" grade (–40°C to +85°C) and "A" grade (improved accuracy) variants. Thermal derating begins above 70°C ambient.
Does the LTC1099CSW#PBF require an external clock source?
No, the LTC1099CSW#PBF does not require an external clock. All timing-including conversion initiation, S/H control, and output latching-is generated internally and triggered by edge-sensitive digital inputs (RD or WR). The TC pin allows analog adjustment of conversion time, but no clock signal is needed for basic operation in RD, WR/RD, or Stand-Alone modes.
How is the overflow output (OFL) used in cascaded configurations with the LTC1099CSW#PBF?
The OFL pin of the LTC1099CSW#PBF goes low when VIN exceeds VREF, indicating saturation. In cascaded 9-bit configurations, the OFL output of the first LTC1099CSW#PBF drives the MODE or CS input of a second unit to enable extended-range conversion. Figure 15 in the datasheet shows this topology, where the MSB of the combined result is derived from the OFL state, and the remaining 8 bits come from the second device's DB0–DB7.
Can the LTC1099CSW#PBF operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No, the LTC1099CSW#PBF is specified only for 4.75 V to 5.25 V operation. Its internal reference ladder, comparator thresholds, and output drive strength are designed for 5 V logic compatibility. Supplying 3.3 V will result in undefined behavior, failure to meet timing specs (e.g., tCRD), and potential damage if referenced inputs exceed the reduced VCC. For 3.3 V systems, consider alternatives like the MAX1186EEE+.
What is the significance of the TC pin on the LTC1099CSW#PBF?
TC (Pin 19) on the LTC1099CSW#PBF is an analog input that adjusts internal conversion timing. With TC open, conversion time is 2.5 µs. Connecting TC to VCC via resistor slows conversion (up to ~5 µs); connecting to GND speeds it (down to ~1.5 µs). This allows designers to optimize speed vs. accuracy (e.g., lower TC voltage improves SNR at cost of throughput) without changing hardware layout.
