Product details
Overview
LTC1865HMS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 250ksps successive approximation ADC with integrated 2-channel software-selectable MUX and adjustable reference input, housed in a 10-lead MSOP package operating on a single 5V supply. It delivers 850μA typical supply current at full speed, auto-shutdown to 2μA at 1ksps, and guaranteed operation from –40°C to +125°C - ideal for high-precision, low-power industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1865HMS#PBF datasheet, LTC1865HMS#PBF pinout, LTC1865HMS#PBF application, or LTC1865HMS#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its true differential input architecture, SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface, 87dB SNR, ±8 LSB INL (H-grade), and MSOP-10 thermal performance (θJA = 210°C/W) for compact, thermally constrained designs.
Technical Context
The LTC1865HMS#PBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with integrated sample-and-hold, supporting both single-ended and differential input configurations via a 2-bit SDI control word. Its conversion timing is deterministic: tCONV = 2.75–3.3 μs (H-grade), synchronized by external SCK up to 20 MHz.
It features dual ground pins (AGND and DGND), separate analog/digital power domains, and a programmable reference input (1V to VCC) - enabling ratiometric measurements, reduced-span operation down to 1V full-scale, and direct connection to low-output-impedance sensors without gain stages.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead Plastic MSOP (3mm × 3mm, 0.5mm pitch), θJA = 210°C/W, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CONV | Convert Input | Active-high trigger initiating conversion; held high after completion forces auto-shutdown mode |
| CH0 / CH1 | Analog Input Channels | Software-multiplexed inputs for differential or single-ended measurement; referenced to AGND |
| AGND | Analog Ground | Dedicated low-noise return path for analog circuitry; must connect directly to analog ground plane |
| DGND | Digital Ground | Separate return for digital I/O; tied to AGND at single point to minimize noise coupling |
| SDI | Serial Data Input | Accepts 2-bit MUX configuration word on rising SCK edges before conversion begins |
| SDO | Serial Data Output | 16-bit result shifted out MSB-first on falling SCK edges; tri-stated when CONV is high |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes full-duplex data transfer; supports up to 20 MHz clock frequency (H-grade) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8860IDRCT | 16-bit, 1MSPS, SPI interface, 1.8V–3.6V supply only; no internal MUX; lower power (0.5mW at 100kSPS) | Requires level-shifting for 5V systems; lacks software-configurable dual-channel MUX | Select when higher speed and ultra-low power are prioritized over 5V compatibility and integrated MUX functionality |
| MAX11166ETK+ | 16-bit, 500kSPS, SPI, 2.7V–3.6V supply; integrated PGA (0.5x–16x); no MUX | Not pin-compatible; requires external signal conditioning for 5V-range inputs | Choose when programmable gain amplification is needed for microvolt-level sensor signals, not fixed-ratio industrial sensors |
Compared with ADS8860IDRCT and MAX11166ETK+, the LTC1865HMS#PBF uniquely combines 5V single-supply operation, integrated 2-channel MUX, and guaranteed +125°C performance - making it the only option among the three qualified for uncooled industrial and automotive under-hood deployments without voltage translation or external multiplexing.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling frequency of the LTC1865HMS#PBF at its highest temperature rating?
The LTC1865HMS#PBF maintains a maximum sampling frequency of 250 ksps across its full H-grade operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This is explicitly specified in the "Recommended Operating Conditions" table for H-grade devices, with a minimum guaranteed value of 234 ksps at +125°C - ensuring deterministic real-time performance in high-temperature industrial and automotive applications without speed degradation.
Does the LTC1865HMS#PBF require an external reference voltage, or can it operate with VCC as reference?
The LTC1865HMS#PBF requires an external reference voltage applied to the VREF pin and cannot use VCC as reference. Unlike the SO-8 version of the LTC1865, the MSOP package (including LTC1865HMS#PBF) has a dedicated VREF pin that accepts 1V to VCC (5V) - enabling precise ratiometric or absolute measurements. Tying VREF directly to VCC is not supported and would violate the specified reference input range and noise requirements.
How does the software-selectable MUX in the LTC1865HMS#PBF function during conversion?
The LTC1865HMS#PBF uses a 2-bit configuration word shifted into the SDI pin on rising SCK edges *after* CONV goes low but *before* conversion starts. This word selects one of four input modes (single-ended CH0/GND, CH1/GND, or differential CH0–CH1, CH1–CH0) for the upcoming conversion cycle. The MUX state is latched internally and remains fixed for that conversion - enabling deterministic, software-controlled channel routing without external hardware switches.
What is the meaning of "H-grade" in LTC1865HMS#PBF, and how does it affect INL specification?
"H-grade" denotes the highest temperature grade for the LTC1865HMS#PBF, guaranteeing full electrical specifications from –40°C to +125°C ambient. For INL, this means the device is tested and warranted to ±8 LSB over that entire range - a tighter tolerance than the standard I-grade (±8.5 LSB) and significantly better than C-grade (±6 LSB at 25°C only). This ensures consistent linearity in uncooled enclosures or high-ambient environments.
Can the LTC1865HMS#PBF be used with a 3.3V microcontroller SPI interface without level shifting?
No - the LTC1865HMS#PBF is a 5V-only device with VIH = 2.4V min and VIL = 0.8V max, but its digital I/O pins (SDI, SDO, SCK, CONV) are not 3.3V-tolerant when VCC = 5V. Driving these pins with 3.3V logic violates the absolute maximum rating for digital input voltage (7V max) but risks violating the recommended operating condition for VIL/VIH margins and may cause unreliable communication. Level shifting is required for robust interoperability with 3.3V controllers.
