Product details
Overview
LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an 8-bit, 750kHz sampling analog-to-digital converter with integrated 2-channel multiplexer and auto-shutdown mode. It operates from a single 5V supply, consumes 50mW active power and draws only 1nA in shutdown, and features 3-wire serial I/O in an SO-8 package. It is used in high-speed data acquisition for disk drives and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 750kHz max sampling rate at 5V, ±1/2LSB total unadjusted error over temperature, software-selectable MUX configuration, 1nA shutdown current, and SO-8 footprint compatibility with board space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF implements a switched-capacitor successive approximation ADC architecture with on-chip sample-and-hold and a 2-channel analog multiplexer. Its conversion timing is synchronized to an external clock, requiring 8.5 clock cycles per conversion at maximum speed.
Digital interface uses a 4-wire protocol (CS/SHUTDOWN, CLK, DIN, DOUT) where a START bit initiates configuration of MUX mode (single-ended vs differential), channel selection (CH0 or CH1), and sign/odd-bit handling before conversion result output. The CS pin doubles as shutdown control: logic HIGH disconnects internal power, reducing ICC to 1nA typical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8-bit - delivers 256 discrete digital codes for precise quantization of analog signals. |
| Max Sampling Rate | 750kHz at VCC = 5V - supports real-time digitization of signals up to ~375kHz Nyquist bandwidth. |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1/2 LSB over temperature - ensures monotonicity and no missing codes without calibration. |
| Supply Current (Active) | 11mA at 5V - enables low-power system design while sustaining full-speed operation. |
| Shutdown Current | 1nA typical - allows microamp-level system sleep modes between acquisition bursts. |
| Input Span Range | VCC-referenced (no external VREF required) - simplifies layout by eliminating reference buffer components. |
| Effective Bits @ 500kHz | 7 ENOB - confirms usable dynamic range for medium-frequency signal capture (e.g., audio band, sensor outputs). |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SO (SO-8), 150°C max junction temperature, θJA = 175°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: CS/SHUTDOWN | Chip select and power control input | Logic LOW enables conversion and serial interface; logic HIGH forces full shutdown (1nA ICC). |
| 2: CH0 | Analog input channel 0 | Single-ended or differential input node; high-impedance (±1μA leakage) for direct sensor connection. |
| 3: CH1 | Analog input channel 1 | Second analog input for MUX selection; identical electrical characteristics to CH0. |
| 4: GND | Analog ground reference | Must connect directly to analog ground plane to minimize noise coupling into sample-and-hold. |
| 5: DIN | Serial configuration input | Accepts 4-bit command word (START + SGL/DIFF + ODD/SIGN + DUMMY) to configure MUX behavior pre-conversion. |
| 6: DOUT | Serial data output | MSB-first output of 8-bit conversion result; enters Hi-Z state within 120ns after CS↑. |
| 7: CLK | Serial interface clock input | Edge-triggered (rising edge); supports up to 12MHz for 750kHz sampling at 5V. |
| 8: VCC/VREF | Power supply and reference voltage | Serves dual role: powers internal circuitry and defines full-scale input range (0V to VCC). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-shutdown mode | Reduces supply current to 1nA typical when idle, enabling battery-operated systems to extend runtime between conversions. |
| Integrated 2-channel MUX | Allows time-multiplexed sampling of two independent analog sources without external switching components or PCB routing overhead. |
| Single-supply operation | Eliminates need for negative rails or precision external references-full-scale range scales directly with VCC (3V–6V). |
| High-speed serial interface | Supports 12MHz clocking for 750kHz sampling, compatible with HC logic and FPGA I/O without level-shifting. |
| On-chip sample-and-hold | Provides 1MHz full-accuracy input bandwidth, enabling accurate digitization of fast-rising transients without external hold circuitry. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF at 5V supply?
The LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF achieves a maximum sampling rate of 750kHz when operated at VCC = 5V and fCLK = 12MHz. This is specified in the AC Characteristics table under "fSMPL(MAX) Maximum Sampling Frequency" for the LTC1198-2B grade. At 2.7V supply, the max rate drops to 287kHz due to reduced internal switching speed.
Does the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF does not require an external reference. Pin 8 (VCC/VREF) serves as both power supply and reference input-its voltage defines the full-scale input range (0V to VCC). This eliminates external reference components and simplifies layout, though accuracy tracks VCC regulation and noise.
How does the auto-shutdown feature work on the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF enters auto-shutdown when CS/SHUTDOWN (Pin 1) is driven HIGH. In this state, internal bias circuits are disabled and supply current drops to 1nA typical. Conversion resumes within microseconds upon pulling CS LOW, making it ideal for burst-mode acquisition in battery-powered systems.
What are the analog input voltage limits for the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF?
The analog inputs (CH0 and CH1) of the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF accept voltages from –0.05V to VCC + 0.05V, as specified in the "Analog and REF Input Range" parameter. Exceeding these limits risks latch-up or damage. For safe operation, inputs should be clamped or buffered to remain within 0V to VCC when using VCC-referenced mode.
Can the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF perform differential measurements between CH0 and CH1?
Yes, the LTC1198-2BCS8#TRPBF supports differential input mode. When configured via the DIN command word (SGL/DIFF = 1), it measures the voltage difference (CH0 – CH1) with respect to ground. This mode provides common-mode rejection and is useful for noise-immune sensor interfaces such as bridge-based strain gauges or thermocouples.
