Product details
Overview
LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 10-bit, 250ksps successive approximation ADC with differential analog input, internal sample-and-hold, and 3-wire SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface. It operates from a single 2.7V supply, draws only 0.8mA typical supply current at full speed, and features auto shutdown that scales power linearly with sampling rate. It is used in portable instrumentation for high-resolution DC-coupled sensor digitization.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.7V operation, differential input architecture, 250ksps throughput, ±2 LSB offset error, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded data acquisition systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with integrated sample-and-hold. Its differential input accepts signals from 0V to VCC with adjustable reference via VREF pin, enabling ratiometric measurement or external precision reference use.
It uses a 3-wire serial interface (CS, CLK, DOUT) with MSB-first output and no DIN pin-unlike the MUX-equipped LTC1199 family. Conversion timing is fixed at 10.5 clock cycles per sample, with sampling time of 1.5 clock cycles and conversion time of 2.9µs at 2.7V/3.5MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 10-bit - delivers 1024 discrete output codes with no missing codes guaranteed. |
| Max Sampling Rate | 250ksps - supports real-time capture of signals up to ~125kHz Nyquist bandwidth. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7V to 4V - enables direct integration into 3V battery-powered systems without LDO overhead. |
| Supply Current (250ksps) | 0.8mA typical - enables micropower operation; drops linearly as sample rate decreases. |
| INL / DNL | ±1 LSB / ±1 LSB - ensures monotonicity and <0.1% integral nonlinearity for precision DC measurements. |
| Reference Input | VREF pin accepts 0.2V to VCC+0.05V - allows flexible scaling down to 200mV full-scale for 200µV resolution. |
| Interface Protocol | SPI and MICROWIRE compatible - requires only CS, CLK, DOUT; no external level-shifting needed for 2.7V MCU I/O. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin MSOP (3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - CS | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable; initiates conversion and serial transfer; high state triggers auto shutdown. |
| 2 - +IN | Differential Analog Input (+) | High-impedance input (20pF); accepts 0V to VCC; paired with –IN for true differential measurement. |
| 3 - –IN | Differential Analog Input (–) | High-impedance input (20pF); defines common-mode voltage; must remain stable during sampling. |
| 4 - GND | Analog Ground | Primary return path for analog circuitry; must connect directly to low-noise analog ground plane. |
| 5 - VREF | External Reference Input | Defines full-scale range; supports external precision references or ratiometric connection to sensor excitation. |
| 6 - DOUT | Serial Data Output | CMOS-compatible, tri-stateable output; transmits 10-bit result MSB-first after two null bits. |
| 7 - CLK | Serial Clock Input | Accepts up to 3.5MHz clock at 2.7V; all data edges synchronized to rising CLK edge. |
| 8 - VCC | Positive Supply | 2.7V to 4V single supply; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass to GND for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Differential analog input | Enables rejection of common-mode noise and direct connection to bridge sensors or isolated signal sources without op-amp buffering. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF achieves a maximum sampling rate of 250ksps when operated at 2.7V with a 3.5MHz clock. This is specified under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 2.7V, VREF = 2.5V, fCLK = 3.5MHz). At lower clock frequencies or reduced supply voltages, the achievable rate decreases proportionally due to fixed 10.5-clock-cycle conversion timing.
Does the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF support differential input mode?
Yes, the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF supports true differential input mode via dedicated +IN and –IN pins. It measures the voltage difference between these two inputs with respect to GND, enabling common-mode noise rejection and direct connection to bridge sensors or isolated signal sources without external instrumentation amplifiers.
Can the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF operate from a 2.7V supply?
Yes, the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF is explicitly rated for 2.7V to 4V single-supply operation. Its datasheet specifies performance-including 250ksps sampling, ±1 LSB INL, and 0.8mA supply current-at 2.7V with 3.5MHz clock, making it ideal for coin-cell or Li-ion battery-powered applications where low-voltage operation is critical.
What package type is used for the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-pin MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) with 3mm × 3mm body and 0.65mm lead pitch. This RoHS-compliant, surface-mount package offers superior thermal performance and board-area efficiency compared to SO-8, and is compatible with standard reflow soldering processes.
Is the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF pin-compatible with other devices in the LTC1197/LTC1199 family?
Yes, the LTC1197CMS8#TRPBF shares identical pinout and package with the LTC1197LCS8, LTC1197IMS8, and LTC1197LIMS8 variants. However, it is not pin-compatible with LTC1199-series parts (e.g., LTC1199CMS8), which substitute DIN for VREF and implement a 2-channel MUX-requiring different PCB layout and firmware handling.
