Product details
Overview
LTC1408IUH-12 from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit, 6-channel simultaneous-sampling analog-to-digital converter with 600ksps aggregate throughput and 100ksps per channel. It operates from a single 3V supply, draws 5mA active current, features 83dB CMRR, and supports both unipolar (0V–2.5V) and bipolar (±1.25V) differential input ranges via the BIP pin. It is used in multiphase power measurement and motor control systems requiring synchronized voltage/current sampling.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1408IUH-12 datasheet, LTC1408IUH-12 pinout, LTC1408IUH-12 application, or LTC1408IUH-12 equivalent, key selection criteria include simultaneous sampling capability, 72dB SINAD at 100kHz, 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface, SLEEP mode (6µW), and 32-pin 5mm × 5mm QFN package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LTC1408IUH-12 integrates six independent sample-and-hold circuits triggered synchronously on the rising edge of the CONV signal, enabling true simultaneous acquisition across all channels. Its internal 2.5V bandgap reference (±15ppm/°C tempco) can be overdriven by an external reference up to VDD.
Conversion sequencing is controlled by SEL2/SEL1/SEL0, supporting 1–6 channel conversions in programmable order; output data is MSB-first, 12-bit per channel, delivered in 96-clock frames. The device implements two low-power states: NAP (3.3mW) and SLEEP (6µW), entered via specific CONV pulse sequences.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonic transfer function for precision control loop feedback. |
| Sampling Rate | 600ksps aggregate / 100ksps per channel - enables real-time capture of 50kHz fundamental waveforms with >20× oversampling. |
| SINAD | 72dB typical at 100kHz - supports ≥11.6 effective bits for high-fidelity sensor signal digitization. |
| CMRR | 83dB at 100kHz - rejects ground-loop noise and common-mode interference in industrial motor drive environments. |
| Power Consumption | 15mW active, 6µW SLEEP - suitable for battery-backed power monitoring and portable instrumentation. |
| Input Range | 0V–2.5V unipolar or ±1.25V bipolar differential - configurable via BIP pin for AC-coupled or DC-coupled signal chains. |
| Package | 32-pin QFN (5mm × 5mm) with exposed GND pad - provides low thermal resistance (θJA = 34°C/W) for stable operation in compact enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin plastic QFN (5mm × 5mm), exposed thermal pad (Pin 33) soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0+ to CH5+ | Non-inverting analog inputs (6 pairs) | Differential input terminals accepting rail-to-rail common-mode (0V–VDD) with ±1.25V or 0V–2.5V differential swing. |
| CH0– to CH5– | Inverting analog inputs (6 pairs) | Complement terminals completing differential pairs; full 83dB CMRR requires matched trace lengths and impedances. |
| CONV | Convert start trigger | Rising-edge synchronous sampling command; also controls NAP/SLEEP entry via pulse count with static SCK. |
| SCK | Serial clock input | Drives conversion timing and serial data output; 100ns–10µs period range supports flexible host controller interfacing. |
| SDO | Three-state serial data output | MSB-first 12-bit words for CH0–CH5 in sequence; tri-states when not actively shifting data. |
| BIP | Bipolar/unipolar mode select | Static logic level during conversion determines output coding format (2's complement vs. straight binary) and input range. |
| SEL2/SEL1/SEL0 | Channel selection control | 3-bit code defines number of active channels (1–6); must remain stable during conversion and readout cycles. |
| VREF | Internal 2.5V reference output | Bypassed with 10µF + 0.1µF to GND; externally overdrivable from 2.55V to VDD for improved accuracy or system-level reference sharing. |
| VCC/VDD/OGND/DGND/GND | Analog/digital supply and ground returns | Separate analog (VCC, GND pins 6/9/12/13/16/19/22) and digital (VDD, DGND, OGND) paths required to maintain 72dB SINAD performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Simultaneous sampling | Six independent S&H circuits triggered by one CONV edge - eliminates phase skew between channels for accurate vector calculations in power electronics. |
| Configurable input range | BIP pin selects unipolar (0V–2.5V) or bipolar (±1.25V) mode - enables direct interface to current-sense amplifiers or isolated voltage sensors without external level-shifting. |
| Low-power shutdown modes | SLEEP (6µW) and NAP (3.3mW) reduce system standby power - critical for always-on energy meters and uninterruptible power supplies. |
| High CMRR (83dB) | Rejects common-mode noise from switching power stages - allows clean acquisition in noisy motor drive inverters without additional filtering. |
| Flexible channel selection | SEL2/SEL1/SEL0 enable partial-channel conversion (1–6) - increases effective throughput for subsets (e.g., 3 channels @ 200ksps) without firmware overhead. |
| 3-wire SPI-compatible interface | SDO/SCK/CONV require only three MCU GPIOs - simplifies integration into resource-constrained microcontrollers without dedicated SPI hardware. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar simultaneous-sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8588SIRTVR | 16-bit, 8-channel, 100ksps/ch, SPI interface, 3.3V supply, 15mW active power | Higher resolution but lower sampling rate; requires external reference and separate AVDD/DVDD supplies | Preferred when >12-bit DC accuracy is required for calibration-grade instrumentation, not for high-speed control loops. |
| AD7606C-18 | 18-bit, 8-channel, 1MSPS aggregate, parallel + SPI interface, ±5V/±10V input range, 120mW active power | Wider input range and higher resolution, but larger 64-lead LQFP package and 4× higher power consumption | Selected for high-precision test equipment where board space and power budget permit; not suitable for portable or thermally constrained designs. |
Compared with ADS8588SIRTVR and AD7606C-18, the LTC1408IUH-12 delivers optimal balance of simultaneous sampling fidelity, ultra-low power, and compact QFN packaging - making it uniquely suited for space- and energy-constrained embedded power electronics where 12-bit resolution at 100ksps/ch meets system requirements.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1408IUH-12?
The LTC1408IUH-12 is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C (industrial grade), as indicated by the "I" suffix in the part number. This range is validated across all key specifications including INL (±0.25LSB), offset error (±1mV), and SINAD (72dB), ensuring reliable performance in harsh industrial environments where the LTC1408IUH-12 is commonly deployed.
How does the LTC1408IUH-12 achieve simultaneous sampling across six channels?
The LTC1408IUH-12 achieves true simultaneous sampling using six independent sample-and-hold (S&H) circuits, each tied to its own differential input pair (CH0+/- through CH5+/-). All six S&H units are triggered by the same rising edge of the CONV signal, ensuring aperture skew is limited to 200ps - a critical feature that preserves phase coherence for the LTC1408IUH-12 in power and motor control applications.
Can the LTC1408IUH-12 use an external reference, and what are the voltage limits?
Yes, the LTC1408IUH-12 supports external reference override via the VREF pin. An external reference between 2.55V and VDD (max 4V) can be applied to improve absolute accuracy or synchronize multiple LTC1408IUH-12 devices. When using an external reference, the internal 2.5V bandgap is disabled, and reference tempco defaults to ±1ppm/°C - a significant improvement over the internal ±15ppm/°C spec.
What is the minimum acquisition time required for full 600ksps throughput?
The minimum acquisition time for full 600ksps aggregate throughput is 39ns, as specified in the datasheet under tACQ. This value assumes low source impedance (<100Ω) driving the analog inputs. With higher source impedances, acquisition time increases linearly; for example, a 1kΩ source raises tACQ to ~390ns, requiring reduced sampling rate or addition of a buffer amplifier to maintain LTC1408IUH-12 performance.
How do the SEL2/SEL1/SEL0 pins affect conversion throughput in the LTC1408IUH-12?
The SEL2/SEL1/SEL0 pins configure the number of active channels per conversion cycle: 000 = 1 channel (100ksps → 600ksps effective), 011 = 4 channels (100ksps → 150ksps effective), and 101/110/111 = 6 channels (100ksps each). This programmability allows the LTC1408IUH-12 to increase per-channel throughput when fewer channels are needed - e.g., 3 channels at 200ksps - without changing hardware or firmware timing.
