Product details
Overview
LTC1418CG#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a low-power, 14-bit, 200ksps analog-to-digital converter with selectable parallel or SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial output. It operates from single 5V or ±5V supplies, features an integrated 2.5V reference and sample-and-hold, and delivers ±1.25LSB INL, 81.5dB S/(N+D), and 15mW typical power dissipation in unipolar mode - enabling high-accuracy data acquisition in battery-powered and isolated systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1418CG#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1418CG#TRPBF pinout, LTC1418CG#TRPBF application, or LTC1418CG#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-supply flexibility (0V to 4.096V unipolar / ±2.048V bipolar input range), user-selectable Nap/Sleep shutdown modes, 28-pin SSOP package, and guaranteed no missing codes over temperature - critical for medical instrumentation, audio processing, and remote telemetry designs requiring DC precision and AC fidelity.
Technical Context
The LTC1418CG#TRPBF implements a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with an internal differential capacitive DAC and high-speed comparator. Its conversion timing is controlled by either an internal clock (enabled via D0/EXT/INT = low) or external clock up to 4.5MHz applied to D4/EXTCLKIN, supporting precise synchronization in DSP- or FPGA-based signal chains.
It integrates a 2.5V precision reference (±10ppm/°C tempco, 2.48–2.52V output) and REFCOMP pin for 4.096V reference bypassing, while its differential analog inputs (AIN+, AIN–) support high-impedance sampling with 25pF input capacitance in sample mode and ±1µA leakage - enabling direct connection to low-output-impedance amplifiers or buffered sensor interfaces without external gain stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 14-bit with guaranteed no missing codes over 0°C to 70°C - ensures monotonicity and full code coverage in closed-loop control or calibration applications. |
| Sampling Rate | 200ksps maximum - supports Nyquist-limited baseband signals up to 100kHz with 81.5dB S/(N+D) and –94dB THD. |
| INL / DNL | ±1.25LSB max integral linearity, ±1LSB max differential linearity - enables <0.01% absolute accuracy in 4–20mA loop receivers or precision weigh-scale front-ends. |
| Power Dissipation | 15mW typical (unipolar), 26.5mW typical (bipolar) - allows continuous operation in thermally constrained portable devices with minimal self-heating error. |
| Analog Input Range | 0V to 4.096V (unipolar, 5V supply) or ±2.048V (bipolar, ±5V supplies) - matches standard industrial voltage/current ranges and simplifies scaling in PLC I/O modules. |
| Reference | Integrated 2.5V bandgap reference (±10ppm/°C, 2.48–2.52V) with external REFCOMP bypass - eliminates need for external reference ICs while maintaining stability across temperature. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (G-package), 0°C to 70°C operating temperature range, lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN+, AIN– | Differential analog input pair | Accepts true differential or single-ended (AIN– grounded) signals; high-impedance input with 25pF sample-mode capacitance requires low-Z drive or buffering above ~1kΩ source resistance. |
| VREF | 2.5V reference output | Provides stable internal reference; must be bypassed to AGND with 1µF capacitor to maintain DC accuracy and noise immunity. |
| REFCOMP | 4.096V reference bypass node | Supports external 4.096V reference configuration; requires 10µF tantalum + 0.1µF ceramic bypass for optimal settling and PSRR. |
| D13–D0 | 14-bit parallel data outputs (D13 = MSB) | Three-state outputs enabled by CS and RD; SER/PAR pin selects between parallel and serial output modes - enables shared bus architectures. |
| CONVST | Active-low conversion start trigger | Falling edge initiates SAR conversion; timing-critical - must remain low ≥40ns and avoid mid-conversion reassertion to prevent code errors. |
| BUSY | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output signaling conversion progress; used for polling or interrupt-driven data capture with 35–70ns delay from CONVST. |
| SHDN, CS | Power management control | SHDN low + CS low = Nap mode (4.3µA IDD); SHDN low + CS high = Sleep mode (2µA IDD) - enables µA-level standby in intermittent-sampling systems. |
| D0 (EXT/INT), D4 (EXTCLKIN), D3 (SCLK) | Serial interface control and clock | D0 selects internal (low) or external (high) clock source; D4 accepts external clock ≤4.5MHz; D3 clocks serial data out on rising edge - supports master/slave SPI configurations. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8325IPW | 16-bit resolution, 100ksps max, SPI-only interface, no internal reference - requires external 2.5V reference and level-shifting for 5V systems. | Better DC accuracy but lower speed; suited for static measurements (e.g., strain gauge bridges) where throughput is secondary to resolution. | Choose ADS8325IPW when 16-bit ENOB and ultra-low DNL (<±0.5LSB) outweigh need for 200ksps rate or parallel interface. |
| MAX11607EEE+ | 14-bit, 250ksps, internal reference, SPI interface only, 16-pin QSOP - lacks parallel output and bipolar supply support. | Higher sampling rate but limited to unipolar 0–VREF input; optimized for space-constrained embedded controllers with SPI-native peripherals. | Choose MAX11607EEE+ for compact, cost-sensitive designs needing >200ksps and minimal external components, accepting SPI-only constraint. |

Yes, the LTC1418CG#TRPBF features a SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface with D1/DOUT, D2/CLKOUT, D3/SCLK, D4/EXTCLKIN, and D0/EXT/INT pins. It supports clock frequencies from DC to 10MHz and operates as either master or slave. The LTC1418CG#TRPBF requires no level-shifting for 5V-tolerant MCUs and uses standard SPI timing - confirmed by tH SCLK ≥10ns and tL SCLK ≥20ns specifications.
What is the guaranteed performance of the LTC1418CG#TRPBF over temperature?
The LTC1418CG#TRPBF is specified for 0°C to 70°C operation (Commercial grade). Over this range, it guarantees ±1.25LSB integral nonlinearity, ±1LSB differential nonlinearity, no missing codes, 81.5dB S/(N+D) at 97.5kHz, and 15mW typical power dissipation in unipolar mode. All dynamic and DC specs in the datasheet marked with "l" apply across this full temperature range - verified by production testing, not just characterization.
