Product details
Overview
LTC1409CG#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit, 800ksps successive-approximation ADC with differential sampling, ±2.5V bipolar input range, internal 2.5V reference, and dual shutdown modes (Nap: 4mW, Sleep: 10µW). It delivers 72.5dB S/(N+D) at 400kHz Nyquist frequency and operates from ±5V supplies. Used in high-speed data acquisition systems requiring precision timing and low power.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1409CG#PBF datasheet, LTC1409CG#PBF pinout, LTC1409CG#PBF application, or LTC1409CG#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20MHz full-power bandwidth, no-pipeline-delay parallel output, ±1LSB INL/DNL over temperature, true differential input architecture with 60dB CMRR, and support for 3V/5V logic via separate OVDD pin.
Technical Context
The LTC1409CG#PBF implements a capacitor-based successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with integrated differential sample-and-hold, enabling simultaneous acquisition on +AIN and –AIN inputs. Its internal clock eliminates external timing dependencies, and conversion is initiated by a falling edge on CONVST while BUSY signals completion.
It features a buffered 2.5V bandgap reference (±15ppm/°C tempco) accessible at VREF, with REFCOMP requiring 10µF bypassing. The analog front-end supports both single-ended (–AIN grounded) and fully differential configurations, rejecting common-mode noise up to 20MHz bandwidth without performance degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonic transfer function for accurate signal reconstruction. |
| Sampling Rate | 800ksps maximum - enables real-time capture of signals up to 400kHz Nyquist frequency. |
| S/(N + D) | 72.5dB at 400kHz - ensures >11.7 effective bits for high-fidelity spectral analysis. |
| INL / DNL | ±1LSB over temperature - maintains linearity across 0°C to 70°C industrial range without calibration. |
| Input Range | ±2.5V differential - matches standard op-amp output ranges and simplifies anti-alias filter design. |
| Power Dissipation | 80mW typical at full rate; 4mW in Nap mode - balances throughput and battery life in portable instrumentation. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | 60dB - suppresses ground-loop noise and allows direct measurement from noisy sensor sources. |
| Acquisition Time | 150ns - permits use with moderate-source-impedance drivers without external buffering. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin plastic SO (Small Outline) wide-body, RoHS-compliant, JEDEC MS-013AC, θJA = 95°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +AIN (1) | Differential analog input positive | Accepts signal up to ±2.5V relative to –AIN; sampled simultaneously with –AIN for true differential acquisition. |
| –AIN (2) | Differential analog input negative | Reference point for +AIN; common-mode voltage may range from –2.5V to +2.5V without affecting linearity. |
| VREF (3) | 2.5V reference output | Buffered internal bandgap reference; can be overdriven by external source for adjustable full-scale span. |
| REFCOMP (4) | Reference amplifier compensation | Must be bypassed to AGND with ≥10µF capacitor to stabilize internal reference amplifier. |
| AGND (5) | Analog ground return | Primary ground for analog circuitry; must be tied to DGND and OGND at single point to minimize noise coupling. |
| D11–D4 (6–13) | MSB-to-bit-4 parallel data outputs | Three-state outputs active when CS low and RD low; compatible with 3V or 5V logic via OVDD pin. |
| DGND (14) | Digital logic ground | Ground for internal digital control logic; electrically isolated from AGND but tied externally. |
| OVDD (27) | Output driver supply | Separate supply for digital outputs - set to 3V or 5V to interface directly with corresponding logic families. |
| CONVST (23) | Conversion start trigger | Falling-edge sensitive; initiates SAR cycle and resets successive approximation register. |
| BUSY (25) | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output; data valid on rising edge - enables synchronous latch timing with microprocessors. |
| SHDN / NAP/SLP (21/20) | Power management control | NAP/SLP selects shutdown mode; SHDN activates selected mode - enables rapid wake-up (200ns) from Nap or ultra-low leakage Sleep. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay | Immediate availability of conversion result after BUSY rises - eliminates latency uncertainty in closed-loop control systems. |
| Dual shutdown modes | Nap mode (4mW) enables fast wake-up; Sleep mode (10µW) maximizes battery life in intermittent-sampling applications. |
| True differential input architecture | 60dB CMRR up to 20MHz - rejects noise from long cables, motor drives, or switching power supplies without external instrumentation amps. |
| Internal 2.5V reference with tempco | ±15ppm/°C drift - eliminates need for external precision reference in cost-sensitive designs while maintaining DC accuracy. |
| Separate OVDD supply | Direct interface to 3V or 5V logic families - avoids level-shifting components and reduces BOM count in mixed-voltage systems. |
| 20MHz full-power bandwidth | Supports undersampling of RF or IF signals above Nyquist - enables software-defined radio and spectrum monitoring applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7892BRZ-1 | 12-bit, 600ksps, ±5V input range, no internal reference, requires external REF. | Higher input voltage tolerance but lacks integrated reference and differential input rejection. | Select when system already provides precision ±5V reference and common-mode noise is negligible. |
| MAX1167BCAP+ | 12-bit, 250ksps, internal reference, SPI interface, no parallel bus or BUSY signal. | Lower speed and serial interface limit real-time processing; better suited for space-constrained embedded controllers. | Select when board area is critical and microcontroller has SPI but lacks parallel port or timing-critical BUSY handshake. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1409CG#PBF?
The LTC1409CG#PBF is specified for operation from 0°C to 70°C (Commercial grade). Its DC specifications-including ±1LSB INL and ±1LSB DNL-are guaranteed across this full range. The "G" suffix denotes the commercial temperature grade, distinct from the "I" grade (–40°C to +85°C) offered in other variants like LTC1409IG.
Does the LTC1409CG#PBF require an external reference, or does it have an internal one?
The LTC1409CG#PBF includes a factory-trimmed, temperature-compensated 2.5V internal reference accessible at the VREF pin (Pin 3), eliminating the need for an external reference in most applications. It also supports external reference override via the VREF pin, enabling adjustable full-scale span for dynamic signal conditioning.
How does the LTC1409CG#PBF handle differential versus single-ended input configurations?
The LTC1409CG#PBF natively supports both configurations: differential mode uses +AIN and –AIN simultaneously for common-mode noise rejection, while single-ended mode grounds –AIN and applies signal to +AIN. Linearity specs (INL/DNL) hold in both modes, though dynamic performance (e.g., THD) degrades slightly at rail-aligned common-mode voltages.
What are the power consumption values for the LTC1409CG#PBF in Nap and Sleep modes?
In Nap mode (NAP/SLP = HIGH, SHDN = LOW), the LTC1409CG#PBF draws 0.8–1.2mA from ±5V supplies, equating to ~4mW total dissipation. In Sleep mode (NAP/SLP = LOW, SHDN = LOW), it consumes just 1µA from each supply, resulting in ~0.01mW total power - ideal for battery-powered wake-on-event systems.
Can the LTC1409CG#PBF interface directly with 3V logic systems?
Yes - the LTC1409CG#PBF features a dedicated OVDD pin (Pin 27) that powers its digital output drivers. By connecting OVDD to a 3V supply (instead of AVDD), the D11–D0 outputs become fully compatible with 3V logic families without level shifters, while AVDD and VSS remain at ±5V for analog performance.
