Product details
Overview
LTC1199IS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 10-bit, 250ksps successive approximation ADC with integrated 2-channel analog multiplexer and auto shutdown. It operates from a single 2.7V supply, draws only 0.8mA at full speed, and uses SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible 4-wire serial interface. It targets low-power portable instrumentation requiring precise ground-referenced or differential voltage measurements.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1199IS8#PBF datasheet, LTC1199IS8#PBF pinout, LTC1199IS8#PBF application, or LTC1199IS8#PBF equivalent, key selection factors include its 2.7V operation, software-selectable MUX configuration, 250ksps sampling rate, ±1 LSB linearity, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1199IS8#PBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with on-chip sample-and-hold and a 2-channel analog multiplexer. Its digital interface requires a start bit followed by 3-bit configuration word (SGL/DIFF, ODD/SIGN, DUMMY) to select input channel and mode before conversion.
It supports unipolar transfer only, with VREF internally tied to VCC - eliminating external reference components. Conversion timing is clock-synchronized: 16-cycle total cycle time, 10.5-cycle conversion time, and 1.5-cycle sampling window, all referenced to the rising edge of CLK.

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 channel selection; lower resolution limits dynamic range in precision sensor apps | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-resolution portable systems where MUX not required |
| MAX11100ETE+ | 12-bit resolution, 500ksps, 2.7–3.6V supply, internal reference, no MUX | Higher resolution but no analog multiplexer; larger 16-pin TQFN package increases board area | Prefer when higher ENOB needed and dual-channel sampling is handled externally |
Compared with ADS7822U and MAX11100ETE+, the LTC1199IS8#PBF uniquely balances 10-bit precision, integrated 2-channel MUX, ultra-low 0.8mA active current, and compact MSOP-8 footprint - making it optimal for battery-powered multi-sensor nodes where size, power, and channel flexibility are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the LTC1199IS8#PBF?
The LTC1199IS8#PBF supports a maximum clock frequency of 3.5MHz when operating from a 2.7V supply. This limit ensures accurate conversion timing and maintains ±1 LSB linearity across temperature. Exceeding this frequency may cause timing violations in the 16-cycle serial interface or degrade INL/DNL performance. The device's tCYC (total cycle time) is fixed at 16 clock periods, so higher clock rates reduce overall conversion latency but do not increase sampling throughput beyond 250ksps.
Does the LTC1199IS8#PBF require an external voltage reference?
No, the LTC1199IS8#PBF does not require an external voltage reference. Its VREF pin is internally tied to VCC, meaning the full-scale input range is always equal to the supply voltage (e.g., 0V to 2.7V at VCC = 2.7V). This eliminates reference ICs, resistors, and associated noise sources - simplifying design and improving ratiometric accuracy when measuring sensor bridges powered from the same supply. The LTC1199IS8#PBF specification assumes VREF = VCC in all electrical characteristics.
Can the LTC1199IS8#PBF perform true differential measurements between CH0 and CH1?
Yes, the LTC1199IS8#PBF supports true differential measurement between CH0 and CH1. When configured via the 3-bit command word (SGL/DIFF = 0, ODD/SIGN = 1), the device measures the voltage difference (CH0 – CH1) with respect to GND. This mode leverages the internal sample-and-hold on CH0 and relies on CH1 remaining stable during acquisition. The differential span equals VCC, and the output code follows the unipolar transfer function: 0x000 corresponds to –VCC/2, and 0x3FF corresponds to +VCC/2 - enabling signed interpretation in firmware.
How does auto shutdown work in the LTC1199IS8#PBF?
In the LTC1199IS8#PBF, auto shutdown activates automatically whenever CS is held high - disabling the internal oscillator, sample-and-hold, and digital interface, reducing supply current to <1µA. During active conversion, current scales linearly with sampling frequency: 0.8mA at 250ksps, ~0.4mA at 125ksps, and ~8µA at 250sps. This behavior is inherent to the architecture and requires no software control or register writes - making it ideal for burst-mode sensing where the host MCU toggles CS to trigger individual conversions and minimize average power.
Is the LTC1199IS8#PBF pin-compatible with the LTC1199CS8?
Yes, the LTC1199IS8#PBF is pin-compatible with the LTC1199CS8. Both are 8-pin MSOP packages with identical pinout (CS, CH0, CH1, GND, VCC, DOUT, CLK, DIN) and share the same footprint, thermal pad layout, and solder profile. The primary difference is operating temperature grade: LTC1199IS8#PBF is rated for –45°C to +85°C (industrial), while LTC1199CS8 is rated for 0°C to +70°C (commercial). Electrical specifications are otherwise identical, allowing drop-in replacement in industrial designs requiring extended temperature support.
