Product details
Overview
LTC1865LACMS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 150ksps, 2-channel software-selectable successive approximation ADC in an 8-lead MSOP package, operating from a single 3V supply with 450µA typical supply current at full speed and auto-shutdown to 10µA at 1ksps. It features true differential or single-ended input multiplexing, SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface, external reference pin, and high-impedance analog inputs enabling direct sensor interfacing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1865LACMS#PBF datasheet, LTC1865LACMS#PBF pinout, LTC1865LACMS#PBF application, or LTC1865LACMS#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-chain support for low-power, high-resolution data acquisition designs requiring stable component sourcing and precise timing alignment.
Technical Context
The LTC1865LACMS#PBF implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with integrated sample-and-hold, supporting both differential and single-ended input modes via a 2-bit software-configurable MUX. Its conversion cycle begins on CONV rising edge, completes in 3.7–4.66µs, and supports full-duplex serial communication using SCK, SDI, and SDO pins with no minimum data transfer rate requirement.
It operates across 0°C to 70°C (Commercial grade), accepts external reference voltages from 1V to VCC, and maintains ±8 LSB INL and 82dB SNR at 1kHz input. The MSOP-8 package separates analog and digital grounds (AGND/DGND), mandates tight bypassing (≥1µF tantalum on VCC/VREF), and requires careful PCB layout with analog ground plane isolation to preserve 16-bit accuracy.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (3.0mm × 3.0mm × 1.1mm), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 1. Pin 1 = CONV; Pin 2 = CH0; Pin 3 = CH1; Pin 4 = AGND; Pin 5 = DGND; Pin 6 = SDI; Pin 7 = SCK; Pin 8 = VCC. VREF is internally tied to VCC in SO-8 variants but externally accessible on MSOP versions - this part uses MSOP with external VREF.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CONV (Pin 1) | Convert Start Input | Active-high edge-triggered control initiating conversion; low level enables SDO output and configures MUX via SDI |
| CH0 / CH1 (Pins 2, 3) | Analog Input Channels | Software-selectable differential or single-ended inputs referenced to AGND; support ratiometric or absolute measurements |
| AGND (Pin 4) | Analog Ground | Primary analog reference node; must connect directly to low-impedance analog ground plane to minimize noise coupling |
| DGND (Pin 5) | Digital Ground | Separate digital return path; tied to AGND at single point to prevent ground loops and maintain 16-bit accuracy |
| SDI (Pin 6) | Serial Data Input | Receives 2-bit MUX configuration word on rising SCK edges before conversion; determines next channel selection |
| SCK (Pin 7) | Serial Clock | Synchronizes full-duplex data transfer; supports up to 8MHz clock frequency for fast readout |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Positive Supply | Single 2.7V–3.6V supply powering analog and digital sections; requires local 1µF bypass to AGND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto shutdown between conversions | Reduces average current from 450µA to 10µA at 1ksps, extending battery life in duty-cycled systems |
| Software-selectable 2-channel MUX | Enables flexible signal routing (CH0/CH1 differential, CH0-GND, CH1-GND) without external switches or reconfiguration hardware |
| High-impedance analog inputs | ±1µA leakage allows direct connection to high-output-impedance sensors (e.g., thermocouples, RTDs) without buffer amplifiers |
| No minimum data transfer rate | Eliminates timing constraints on host controller - compatible with slow microcontrollers or low-power sleep modes |
| True differential input capability | Rejects common-mode noise up to 20kHz linear bandwidth, critical for noisy industrial or motor-control environments |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1865LIMS#PBF | Same functionality and pinout; rated for –40°C to 85°C industrial temperature range vs. 0°C to 70°C | Required for outdoor, automotive, or factory-floor deployments where ambient exceeds 70°C | Select when extended temperature operation is mandatory; otherwise LTC1865LACMS#PBF offers lower cost for commercial-grade systems |
| AD7980BRMZ | 16-bit, 1MSPS, SPI interface, 750µA supply current; no internal MUX; requires external reference buffer | Better speed and SNR (91dB), but higher power and no built-in channel selection - needs external multiplexer for multi-channel use | Choose AD7980BRMZ only if sampling rate >150ksps is required and system can accommodate added complexity and power |
Compared with LTC1865LIMS#PBF, the LTC1865LACMS#PBF trades extended temperature range for lower unit cost and identical performance in commercial environments; versus AD7980BRMZ, it provides integrated 2-channel MUX and lower active power at the expense of maximum throughput and SNR.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1865LACMS#PBF?
The LTC1865LACMS#PBF is specified for 0°C to 70°C (Commercial grade). This range is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Operating Temperature Range section of the official datasheet. Operation outside this range may result in degraded INL, offset drift, or failure to meet guaranteed specifications. For industrial applications requiring –40°C to 85°C, the LTC1865LIMS#PBF variant is recommended.
Does the LTC1865LACMS#PBF require an external reference voltage?
Yes - the LTC1865LACMS#PBF uses an external reference voltage applied to the VREF pin, supporting 1V to VCC (3.6V max). Unlike the SO-8 version where VREF is internally tied to VCC, the MSOP package (including LTC1865LACMS#PBF) provides full external reference flexibility. This enables ratiometric measurements with sensors or precision scaling using references like the LT1460 series.
How does the 2-channel MUX work on the LTC1865LACMS#PBF?
The LTC1865LACMS#PBF's MUX is configured via a 2-bit word shifted into SDI during the CONV low period, prior to conversion. Supported modes include differential (CH0–CH1), single-ended CH0-to-GND, CH1-to-GND, and CH0-to-CH1 with polarity reversal. Table 1 in the datasheet defines all four combinations. No external hardware or register writes are needed - configuration occurs dynamically per conversion cycle.
What is the minimum supply voltage for reliable operation of the LTC1865LACMS#PBF?
The LTC1865LACMS#PBF requires a minimum supply voltage of 2.7V, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. Below 2.7V, parameters such as INL, SNR, and conversion time are not guaranteed. At 2.7V, full 16-bit performance is maintained, and supply current remains within datasheet limits (≤1.0mA typical at 150ksps).
Can the LTC1865LACMS#PBF interface directly with a 3.3V microcontroller?
Yes - the LTC1865LACMS#PBF's digital I/O is fully compatible with 3.3V logic: VIH is 1.9V min (at VCC = 3.3V), VOL is 0.3V max (at IO = 400µA), and VOH is 2.3–2.6V (at VCC = 2.7V). When operated from 3.3V, all digital thresholds scale accordingly, ensuring robust noise margins and eliminating level-shifter requirements in standard 3.3V systems.
