Product details
Overview
LTC1412IG#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit, 3 Msps sampling analog-to-digital converter with true differential inputs, ±2.5 V bipolar input range, 72 dB S/(N + D) at 1.5 MHz, and no pipeline delay. It integrates a precision 2.5 V reference, high-dynamic-range sample-and-hold, and 40 MHz full-power bandwidth - used in high-speed data acquisition systems requiring low distortion and direct coupling to op amps.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1412IG#PBF datasheet, LTC1412IG#PBF pinout, LTC1412IG#PBF application, or LTC1412IG#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world timing behavior, confirmed package mapping to 28-pin SSOP, and validated alternative options for telecom, DSP, and spectrum analysis designs.
Technical Context
The LTC1412IG#PBF employs a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with an internal differential capacitive DAC and zeroing-switch-based sample-and-hold. Its 40 MHz full-power bandwidth enables undersampling of signals beyond Nyquist (1.5 MHz), while 63 dB common-mode rejection supports ground-loop-free differential measurement up to 1 MHz input frequency.
It operates from ±5 V supplies (±4.75 V to ±5.25 V), draws 150 mW typical power, and features separate OVDD for 3 V/5 V logic interfacing. Conversion is triggered by active-low CONVST with CS enable, and BUSY output indicates real-time status - eliminating pipeline latency and enabling FIFO/DSP/microprocessor synchronization without wait states.

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (Small Outline Package), 0.300-inch body width, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN+ (1) | Positive analog input | Differential or single-ended input node; accepts ±2.5 V when AIN– grounded; sampled simultaneously with AIN–. |
| AIN– (2) | Negative analog input | Common-mode reference or complementary input; enables 63 dB CMRR and eliminates ground loop noise in sensor interfaces. |
| VREF (3) | 2.5 V reference output | Factory-trimmed bandgap reference; buffered via internal amplifier; can be overdriven externally for adjustable span applications. |
| REFCOMP (4) | Reference amplifier compensation | Must be bypassed to AGND with ≥10 µF ceramic capacitor; stabilizes internal reference amplifier and minimizes noise coupling. |
| AGND (5) | Analog ground | Separate ground return for analog circuitry; must be isolated from DGND/OGND to prevent digital switching noise injection. |
| D11–D0 (6–18) | 12-bit parallel output bus | Three-state outputs (MSB D11 to LSB D0); OVDD-selectable for 3 V or 5 V logic compatibility; no pipeline delay. |
| BUSY (25) | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output signaling conversion in progress; enables synchronous handshaking with microprocessors and FIFOs. |
| CONVST (23) | Conversion start trigger | Falling-edge sensitive; initiates SAR cycle only when CS is low; defines precise sampling instant with <1 ns aperture jitter. |
| CS (24) | Chip select enable | Active-low gate for CONVST recognition; allows multiple ADCs on shared data bus without contention. |
| VSS (26) | Negative supply rail | –5 V supply pin; requires 10 µF ceramic bypass to AGND; clamped diodes tolerate transient excursions below –6 V. |
| AVDD/DVDD/OVDD (28/27/20) | Positive supply rails | AVDD powers analog core; DVDD powers internal logic; OVDD powers output drivers - each independently bypassed for noise isolation. |

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for the LTC1412IG#PBF?
The LTC1412IG#PBF is specified for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies to all AC and DC specifications unless otherwise noted. The device uses internal thermal protection and is qualified per JEDEC JESD22-A104 reliability standards for this range. All key parameters - including INL, S/(N + D), and full-power bandwidth - are tested and guaranteed across this full interval.
Does the LTC1412IG#PBF require an external clock source?
No, the LTC1412IG#PBF does not require an external clock. It contains a fully integrated internal clock and successive approximation logic, so conversion timing is controlled solely by the CONVST and CS signals. The internal clock is optimized for 3 Msps operation and requires no external components - simplifying system design and reducing jitter sensitivity compared to externally clocked ADCs.
Can the LTC1412IG#PBF operate with a single +5 V supply instead of ±5 V?
No, the LTC1412IG#PBF requires dual ±5 V supplies (AVDD = +5 V, VSS = –5 V) to achieve its specified performance. The analog input stage, internal reference, and sample-and-hold circuit are designed for symmetric ±2.5 V input range and ±5 V rail operation. Operation outside the ±4.75 V to ±5.25 V range violates Absolute Maximum Ratings and degrades INL, S/(N + D), and common-mode rejection.
How is the reference voltage configured on the LTC1412IG#PBF?
The LTC1412IG#PBF uses an internal 2.5 V bandgap reference available at the VREF pin (Pin 3), with factory trimming to ±0.8% accuracy. The REFCOMP pin (Pin 4) must be bypassed to AGND with ≥10 µF ceramic capacitance to stabilize the reference amplifier. External references can overdrive VREF through the 2 kΩ series resistor, but doing so disables the internal reference and requires external compensation network design.
What is the aperture jitter specification for the LTC1412IG#PBF, and how does it affect SNR?
The LTC1412IG#PBF has 1 psRMS aperture jitter, measured at the sample-and-hold input. At 1.5 MHz input frequency, this contributes <0.05 dB SNR degradation - negligible versus the 72 dB S/(N + D) specification. Aperture jitter is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "tjitter" and directly impacts high-frequency SNR; lower jitter preserves ENOB at higher input frequencies, supporting accurate undersampling applications.
