Product details
Overview
LTC1864CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 250ksps single-channel successive approximation ADC in an 8-lead SOIC package, operating from a single 5V supply with 850μA typical supply current. It features true differential analog inputs (IN+, IN–), adjustable reference input (VREF), SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible 3-wire serial interface, and auto-shutdown between conversions to reduce power at lower sampling rates.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1864CS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1864CS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1864CS8#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-chain support for low-power, high-precision data acquisition in battery-operated and isolated systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1864CS8#TRPBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with integrated sample-and-hold, supporting unipolar differential input ranges up to VREF full scale (1V to 5V). Its SO-8 package ties VREF internally to VCC, fixing the reference at 5V and enabling rail-to-rail input operation when IN– is grounded.
Conversion is initiated by a rising edge on CONV; after tCONV ≈ 3.2μs, data becomes available on SDO synchronized to SCK falling edges. The device enters sleep mode (2μA at 1ksps) when CONV remains high post-conversion, and supports full-duplex readout only in LTC1865 variants - the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF uses CONV-low to enable SDO output without SDI input.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - provides 65,536 discrete output codes for high-precision measurement of small signal changes. |
| Max Sampling Rate | 250ksps - enables capture of signals up to 125kHz full-linear bandwidth per Nyquist criterion. |
| Supply Current | 850μA typ at 250ksps - allows continuous high-speed acquisition in compact, thermally constrained designs. |
| INL Error | ±8 LSB max - ensures monotonicity and accurate end-point linearity across full temperature range (0°C to 70°C). |
| Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 87 dB - supports >14-bit effective resolution in noise-sensitive applications like sensor interfacing. |
| Analog Input Range | 0V to VREF (5V) differential - permits direct connection to transducer outputs without external gain or level-shifting. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1864CS8#TRPBF supports a maximum sampling rate of 250ksps, with guaranteed conversion time of 3.2μs. This enables full-linear bandwidth up to 125kHz and makes the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF suitable for applications requiring high-fidelity capture of fast-changing analog signals such as vibration monitoring or ultrasonic sensing.
Does the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF require an external voltage reference?
No - the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF SO-8 package internally ties VREF to VCC, fixing the reference at the supply voltage (4.75V–5.25V). This eliminates the need for an external reference IC, reducing BOM cost and board area. For systems requiring adjustable reference spans, the MSOP variants (e.g., LTC1864CMS8#TRPBF) support external VREF from 1V to VCC.
How does the auto-shutdown feature of the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF reduce power consumption?
The LTC1864CS8#TRPBF automatically powers down between conversions when CONV remains high, reducing supply current from 850μA at 250ksps to just 2μA at 1ksps. This dynamic scaling allows designers to maintain responsiveness while minimizing average power - especially valuable in duty-cycled or event-triggered acquisition systems using the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF.
What are the key layout recommendations for achieving optimal performance with the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF?
To achieve optimal performance with the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF, use a dedicated analog ground plane tied directly to Pin 4 (GND) with minimal trace length; bypass VCC and (if used externally) VREF with ≥1μF tantalum capacitors placed adjacent to the pins; keep analog input traces short and shielded from digital switching noise; and avoid wire-wrap prototyping - a 4-layer PCB with separate analog/digital planes is strongly recommended for SNR and INL compliance.
Is the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF pin-compatible with earlier 12-bit Linear Technology ADCs?
Yes - the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF is pin-compatible with the 12-bit LTC1860/LTC1861 family in the same SO-8 package, enabling a seamless 16-bit resolution upgrade without PCB redesign. This backward compatibility preserves existing layouts while delivering 16 effective bits of resolution, improved SNR, and enhanced linearity - all within identical footprint and pinout constraints of the LTC1864CS8#TRPBF.
