Product details
Overview
LTC1199CMS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 10-bit, 250ksps successive approximation ADC with integrated 2-channel analog multiplexer, serial SPI/MICROWIRE interface, and auto shutdown. It operates from a single 2.7V supply, draws only 0.8mA at full speed, and features VCC-referenced inputs for ground-referenced or differential measurements. It targets portable data acquisition and low-power sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1199CMS8#PBF datasheet, LTC1199CMS8#PBF pinout, LTC1199CMS8#PBF application, or LTC1199CMS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.7V operation, software-selectable MUX configuration, 250ksps sampling rate, 10-bit no-missing-codes resolution, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1199CMS8#PBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with on-chip sample-and-hold and a 4-wire synchronous serial interface (CS, CLK, DIN, DOUT). Its internal MUX allows selection between CH0 (+IN), CH1 (–IN), or their difference - all referenced to VCC, eliminating need for external reference.
Auto shutdown reduces supply current linearly with sampling frequency down to sub-µA standby; conversion timing is fixed at 2.9µs with 16-clock cycle serial transfer. Input leakage is ±1µA, input capacitance is 20pF on selected channel, and digital I/O thresholds scale with VCC (VIH = 1.9V, VIL = 0.45V at 2.7V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 10-bit, no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full-scale linearity for precision measurement. |
| Max Sampling Rate | 250ksps at VCC = 2.7V - supports real-time capture of audio-band and control-loop signals. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7V to 4V - enables direct battery operation (e.g., single Li-ion or two alkaline cells) without regulation. |
| Supply Current | 0.8mA typical at 250ksps - enables >1-year runtime on coin-cell batteries in duty-cycled systems. |
| Reference | Internally tied to VCC - eliminates external reference IC, simplifies BOM, and ensures ratiometric accuracy vs supply. |
| INL / DNL | ±1 LSB / ±1 LSB - ensures <0.1% end-point linearity error for calibrated sensor interfacing. |
| SNR + THD | 58dB / –60dB at 50kHz - suitable for 9.5 ENOB in industrial monitoring and portable instrumentation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (MS8), 3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch, exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 CS | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable; initiates conversion and serial transfer; high state forces auto shutdown. |
| 2 CH0 (+IN) | Analog Input Channel 0 | Positive input for single-ended or differential mode; high-impedance (±1µA leakage), 20pF capacitance. |
| 3 CH1 (–IN) | Analog Input Channel 1 | Negative input for differential mode; must remain stable during conversion; no sample-and-hold. |
| 4 GND | Analog Ground | Primary return path for analog circuitry; must connect directly to low-noise analog ground plane. |
| 5 DIN | Digital Input | Receives 4-bit configuration word (start, SGL/DIFF, ODD/SIGN, dummy); SPI/MICROWIRE compatible. |
| 6 DOUT | Digital Output | Serial MSB-first output of 10-bit result; tri-state when CS high; supports DIN/DOUT wire sharing. |
| 7 CLK | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes all data transfers; max 3.5MHz at 2.7V; timing critical for setup/hold compliance. |
| 8 VCC | Positive Supply | 2.7V–4V single supply; powers analog core, reference, and digital interface; requires local 1µF bypass. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Software-Selectable 2-Channel MUX | Configurable via 4-bit DIN word to measure CH0–GND, CH1–GND, or CH0–CH1 - enables dual-sensor or differential thermocouple readout. |
| VCC-Referenced Architecture | Eliminates external reference and associated noise/accuracy drift; provides inherent ratiometric performance against supply variation. |
| Auto Shutdown with Linear Power Scaling | Reduces ICC from 0.8mA to sub-µA as sampling rate drops - ideal for event-triggered or burst-mode sensing. |
| 3-Wire Serial Option (DIN/DOUT Shared) | Allows full bidirectional communication over CS, CLK, and single DATA line - saves MCU GPIO and PCB routing. |
| MSOP-8 Footprint Compatibility | Matches industry-standard 8-pin MSOP layout - enables drop-in replacement in space-constrained designs without board rework. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 10-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, 200ksps, 2.7–5.25V supply, SPI-only interface, no MUX. | Lacks software-selectable MUX and 10-bit resolution; lower accuracy limits use in calibrated systems. | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-critical 8-bit applications where MUX and precision are unnecessary. |
| MAX11100ETE+ | 12-bit resolution, 500ksps, 2.7–3.6V supply, internal reference, no MUX, TDFN-12 package. | Higher resolution and speed but larger footprint and no analog multiplexing; requires external decoupling for reference stability. | Choose when 12-bit accuracy and 500ksps are mandatory, and board space allows TDFN-12; not pin-compatible. |
Compared with ADS7822U and MAX11100ETE+, the LTC1199CMS8#PBF uniquely balances 10-bit precision, integrated 2-channel MUX, ultra-low 0.8mA active current, and MSOP-8 compatibility - making it optimal for battery-operated dual-sensor nodes where size, power, and flexibility are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the LTC1199CMS8#PBF?
The LTC1199CMS8#PBF supports a maximum clock frequency of 3.5MHz when operating from a 2.7V supply. This limit scales with supply voltage - higher VCC allows faster clocks up to 7.2MHz (at 5V), but the LTC1199CMS8#PBF is rated for 2.7–4V operation, so 3.5MHz is its validated maximum. Exceeding this may cause timing violations or conversion errors.
Does the LTC1199CMS8#PBF require an external voltage reference?
No, the LTC1199CMS8#PBF does not require an external voltage reference. Its reference is internally tied to the VCC pin, enabling true ratiometric operation. This eliminates reference ICs, reduces BOM cost and board area, and ensures measurement accuracy remains proportional to supply voltage - ideal for battery-powered systems with varying VCC.
How does the LTC1199CMS8#PBF implement automatic power-down?
The LTC1199CMS8#PBF automatically enters low-power shutdown whenever the CS pin is held high. During active conversion cycles (CS low), it draws 0.8mA at 250ksps; in shutdown, supply current drops to sub-µA levels. Crucially, current scales linearly with sampling frequency - halving the sample rate halves the average ICC, enabling precise power budgeting in duty-cycled systems.
Can the DIN and DOUT pins of the LTC1199CMS8#PBF be connected together?
Yes, the DIN and DOUT pins of the LTC1199CMS8#PBF can be wired together to implement a true 3-wire serial interface (CS, CLK, DATA). The device asserts control of the shared line on the 4th falling CLK edge after the start bit, allowing bidirectional communication with minimal MCU GPIO usage - provided the host port is configured to switch direction before that edge.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for analog input voltage on the LTC1199CMS8#PBF?
The absolute maximum analog input voltage on the LTC1199CMS8#PBF is GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V per the datasheet. For a 2.7V supply, this means inputs must stay within –0.3V to 3.0V. Exceeding these limits risks latch-up or permanent damage. The recommended operating range is 0V to VCC, supporting unipolar measurements up to full-scale.
