Product details
Overview
LTC1851CFW#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit, 1.25Msps parallel-output ADC with integrated 8-channel multiplexer, internal 2.5V reference, reference buffer, and programmable sequencer. It supports single-ended/differential inputs, dual gain ranges (1×/2×), unipolar/bipolar operation, and operates from a single 5V supply with 40mW typical power dissipation. It is used in high-speed data acquisition systems requiring channel scanning and flexible analog front-end configuration.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1851CFW#TRPBF pinout, LTC1851CFW#TRPBF application, or LTC1851CFW#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 12-bit resolution, 1.25Msps sampling rate, 48-lead TSSOP package, 4.096V reference output capability, and support for programmable scan sequences up to 16 addresses - critical for industrial process control, test instrumentation, and spectrum analysis designs.
Technical Context
The LTC1851CFW#TRPBF implements a capacitive successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with an internal wideband sample-and-hold circuit. Its conversion cycle comprises a 150ns acquisition phase followed by a 650ns conversion phase, achieving full 12-bit accuracy within 800ns total time.
It features a fully configurable 8-channel analog multiplexer with per-channel gain (PGA = 1 or 2) and polarity (unipolar/bipolar) control via dedicated digital inputs (PGA, UNI/BIP, DIFF, A0–A2). The programmable sequencer stores up to 16 channel-address/configurations and supports readback mode for verification.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 48-lead plastic TSSOP (FW package), 7.0mm × 12.0mm body, 0.5mm pitch, exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH7 (1–8) | Analog Input Channels | Eight differential-pair-capable inputs; configured as single-ended vs COM or differential pairs (CH0/CH1, etc.) via DIFF pin. |
| COM (9) | Analog Common Reference | Return node for single-ended operation; disabled when DIFF = high - enables true differential noise rejection. |
| REFOUT (10) | 2.5V Internal Reference Output | Stable 2.5V source for external use; requires 1µF bypass to AGND for low-noise operation. |
| REFCOMP (12) | Programmable Reference Output | 4.096V (typ) output derived from REFIN × 1.6384; sets full-scale input range and determines LSB voltage step. |

| BUSY (33) | Conversion Status Flag | Active-low open-drain output; falling edge initiates conversion, rising edge indicates data ready - usable as latch strobe. |
| CONVST (45) | Conversion Start Trigger | Edge-sensitive input; falling edge starts acquisition - timing-critical for synchronous multi-device sampling. |
| M0/M1 (36,48) | Mode Control Inputs | Select Direct Address, Program, or Readback modes - enables firmware-controlled sequencer programming and verification. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable 16-step sequencer | Enables autonomous multi-channel scanning without host CPU intervention - reduces software overhead in embedded DAQ systems. |
| True differential input pairs | Rejects common-mode noise up to 60dB at DC–1MHz - critical for sensor interfaces in electrically noisy industrial settings. |
| Separate OVDD supply for digital outputs | Allows direct connection to 3V logic families while maintaining 5V analog performance - eliminates level-shifter components. |
| Nap/Sleep shutdown modes | Reduces current to 1mA (Nap) or 50µA (Sleep) - extends battery life in portable test equipment between acquisitions. |
| Internal reference buffer with strappable ranges | Supports 4.096V, 2.5V, or 2.048V full-scale spans via REFIN configuration - simplifies system-level calibration and scaling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit, multi-channel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7327BRUZ | 12-bit, 8-channel, ±10V/±5V/±2.5V/0–10V input ranges; serial SPI interface; no internal reference buffer. | Requires external reference and level-shifting for 3V logic; better suited for systems prioritizing voltage range flexibility over parallel speed. | Select when wider input voltage compliance and SPI bus integration outweigh need for parallel throughput and internal reference. |
| MAX11627ETI+ | 12-bit, 8-channel, 250ksps max; I²C interface; internal 2.048V reference; smaller 24-TQFN package. | Lower sampling rate and serial interface limit use in real-time streaming; optimized for space-constrained, low-power sensor nodes. | Select for battery-powered IoT edge devices where 250ksps suffices and PCB area is constrained. |
Compared with AD7327BRUZ and MAX11627ETI+, the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF uniquely combines 1.25Msps parallel output, integrated 4.096V reference buffer, and programmable sequencer in a single 48-TSSOP package - making it optimal for high-throughput, self-contained DAQ subsystems where timing determinism and minimal external components are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF?
The LTC1851CFW#TRPBF supports a maximum sampling rate of 1.25Msps, with a total conversion time of 800ns (150ns acquisition + 650ns conversion). This rate is guaranteed across the full 0°C to +70°C operating temperature range and enables accurate digitization of signals up to 625kHz without aliasing.
Does the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF include an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF integrates a 2.5V bandgap reference with a buffered output (REFOUT) and a programmable reference amplifier (REFCOMP). When REFIN is set to 2.5V, REFCOMP delivers a precise 4.096V output - ideal for 12-bit systems requiring 1mV LSB resolution.
How does the programmable sequencer in the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF operate?
The LTC1851CFW#TRPBF's sequencer stores up to 16 channel configurations (address, gain, polarity, differential/single-ended) and scans them autonomously. Configuration is done via WR pulses in Program mode; contents can be verified using Readback mode with RD and M1/M0 controls - eliminating continuous host polling.
Can the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF interface directly with 3V microcontrollers?
Yes, the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF uses a separate OVDD supply pin (Pin 35) for its parallel digital outputs (D11–D0, A2OUT–A0OUT, DIFFOUT). By tying OVDD to 3V, all outputs swing between 0V and 3V - enabling direct, level-compatible connection to 3V logic without external translators.
What are the power-down modes available on the LTC1851CFW#TRPBF?
The LTC1851CFW#TRPBF offers two low-power states: Nap mode (SHDN = 0V, CS = 0V) draws 1mA, and Sleep mode (SHDN = 0V, CS = 5V) draws only 50µA. Both retain sequencer memory and reference bias - allowing fast wake-up (<200ns for Nap, ~10ms for Sleep) without reinitialization.
