Product details
Overview
LTC1858IG#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 14-bit, 8-channel, 100ksps software-programmable analog-to-digital converter with ±25V fault-protected inputs, single 5V supply operation, and SoftSpan™ input range selection (0V–5V, 0V–10V, ±5V, or ±10V). It integrates an internal precision 2.5V reference, sample-and-hold, and SPI/MICROWIRE™ serial interface - deployed in industrial process control, multiplexed data acquisition, and DSP interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1858IG#PBF datasheet, LTC1858IG#PBF pinout, LTC1858IG#PBF application, or LTC1858IG#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 14-bit resolution with ±1.5LSB INL, 87dB SNR (typ), ±25V input fault protection, 28-pin SSOP package, and support for both single-ended and differential channel configurations across all eight inputs.
Technical Context
The LTC1858IG#PBF implements a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with an integrated sample-and-hold and factory-trimmed internal clock enabling guaranteed 100ksps throughput and 5µs max conversion time. Its SoftSpan™ programmable attenuator network precedes the 8-channel analog multiplexer, eliminating multiplexer on-resistance errors and enabling per-channel input range and polarity configuration.
It supports dual ground domains (AGND1/2/3, DGND), separate analog (AVDD), digital (DVDD), and output buffer (OVDD) supplies, and features dedicated REFCOMP (4.096V) and VREF (2.5V) pins for precision reference routing. All analog inputs are fault-protected to ±25V, and a fault on any unselected channel does not corrupt the conversion result of the selected channel.

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (G package), 5.6mm × 10.2mm body, 0.635mm pitch, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (PBF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| COM (1) | Common reference for single-ended inputs | Must be low-noise and tied to analog ground plane; defines zero point for all CH0–CH7 single-ended measurements. |
| CH0–CH7 (2–9) | Analog multiplexer inputs | Each accepts ±25V fault-protected inputs; software-configurable as single-ended or differential pairs (e.g., CH0/CH1). |
| MUXOUT+ / MUXOUT– (10/11) | Multiplexer output differential pair | Drives ADC+ and ADC–; accessible for external signal conditioning or diagnostic probing before conversion stage. |
| ADC+ / ADC– (12/13) | Differential analog inputs to SAR core | Accept rescaled signals from MUXOUT; high-impedance (Hi-Z) node requiring low-source-impedance driving. |
| VREF (15) | 2.5V internal reference output | Factory-trimmed ±10ppm/°C; bypassed with 1µF tantalum to AGND1; usable as external reference source. |
| REFCOMP (16) | 4.096V buffered reference output | Gain-of-1.6384 buffer output of VREF; drives internal DAC; rated for ≤2mA DC load only. |
| CONVST (28) | Active-high conversion start trigger | Rising edge initiates acquisition and conversion; minimum 40ns pulse width required for reliable timing. |
| BUSY (22) | Conversion status indicator | Active-low open-drain output; asserts during conversion; used for handshaking with microcontrollers or FIFOs. |
| SDO / SDI / SCK / RD (23,25,26,27) | SPI/MICROWIRE™ serial interface | 3-wire synchronous interface (SDO out, SDI in, SCK clock); RD enables SDO output; supports up to 20MHz SCK. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Software-programmable input spans | Per-channel selection of 0V–5V, 0V–10V, ±5V, or ±10V via 8-bit command word - eliminates hardware reconfiguration for multi-sensor systems. |
| ±25V fault-protected analog inputs | Robust input structure withstands transient overvoltages without latch-up or performance degradation - critical for industrial I/O modules. |
| Integrated precision reference system | VREF (2.5V) + REFCOMP (4.096V) with <±10ppm/°C drift - removes need for external voltage references and associated layout complexity. |
| Dual power-down modes (Nap/Sleep) | Nap mode reduces current to 8mA (27.5mW); Sleep mode draws only 5.5µA - extends battery life in portable DAQ systems. |
| Channel-to-channel isolation | –120dB (1kHz) - prevents crosstalk between simultaneously sampled channels, preserving integrity in high-density sensor arrays. |
Applications
| Industrial Process Control | Multiplexed Data Acquisition Systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multichannel, programmable ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8688IPWR | 16-bit, 8-channel, SAR ADC; 100ksps; internal 4.096V ref; ±12V input range (no ±25V fault protection); SPI interface. | Requires external overvoltage protection for industrial field inputs; higher resolution but lower fault robustness. | Select when absolute 16-bit accuracy is prioritized over ruggedness; verify external protection design for ±25V transients. |
| AD7606BSTZ | 16-bit, 8-channel, simultaneous-sampling SAR ADC; ±10V input; on-chip 2.5V ref; parallel + SPI interface; no per-channel range programming. | Lacks SoftSpan™ flexibility - all channels fixed to same bipolar/unipolar mode; requires external multiplexer for mixed-range inputs. | Choose for applications needing true simultaneous sampling across all 8 channels, accepting fixed input range and larger footprint. |
Compared with ADS8688IPWR and AD7606BSTZ, the LTC1858IG#PBF uniquely combines per-channel software-programmable input ranges, ±25V fault tolerance, and 14-bit/100ksps performance in a compact 28-pin SSOP - making it optimal for space-constrained, mixed-signal industrial nodes where flexibility and ruggedness are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC1858IG#PBF?
The LTC1858IG#PBF is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C (Industrial grade), as indicated by the "I" suffix in the part number. All DC and dynamic specifications - including ±1.5LSB INL, 87dB SNR, and ±25V fault protection - are guaranteed across this full range.
Does the LTC1858IG#PBF require an external reference, or can it operate with its internal reference?
The LTC1858IG#PBF operates fully with its internal 2.5V reference (VREF) and 4.096V buffered reference (REFCOMP). External references may be applied to VREF for improved accuracy, but are not required - the internal reference is factory-trimmed to ±10ppm/°C and supports all specified performance.
How does the SoftSpan™ feature work on the LTC1858IG#PBF?
The SoftSpan™ feature on the LTC1858IG#PBF uses on-chip resistor networks and switches to program each channel's input range (0V–5V, 0V–10V, ±5V, or ±10V) via an 8-bit command word sent on SDI. This occurs before the signal reaches the multiplexer, eliminating on-resistance errors and enabling per-channel flexibility without external components.
Can the LTC1858IG#PBF accept differential inputs, and how are they configured?
Yes, the LTC1858IG#PBF supports differential inputs: adjacent channel pairs (e.g., CH0/CH1, CH2/CH3) can be configured as differential inputs via the same 8-bit command word that selects range and channel. The differential signal appears across MUXOUT+/MUXOUT– and is converted by the internal SAR core referenced to ADC+/ADC–.
What are the power-down modes available on the LTC1858IG#PBF, and how much power do they save?
The LTC1858IG#PBF offers two user-selectable power-down modes: Nap mode (8mA supply current, ~27.5mW) and Sleep mode (5.5µA, ~8µW). Both retain register settings and allow fast wake-up (<1µs), enabling dynamic power management in battery-powered or thermally sensitive applications without losing configuration state.
