Product details
Overview
LTC1867ACGN#PBF from Analog Devices is a 16-bit, 8-channel, 200ksps successive-approximation ADC with integrated 2.5V reference, SPI/MICROWIRE serial interface, and configurable single-ended/differential input multiplexer. It delivers ±2LSB max INL, 89dB SNR (with internal reference), and operates from a single 5V supply. It is used in high-precision industrial data acquisition systems requiring low power and stable DC performance.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1867ACGN#PBF datasheet, LTC1867ACGN#PBF pinout, LTC1867ACGN#PBF application, or LTC1867ACGN#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 16-bit no-missing-codes operation over 0°C to 70°C, automatic nap/sleep power management, unipolar/bipolar conversion mode support, and SSOP-16 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC1867ACGN#PBF implements a capacitive SAR architecture with differential 16-bit DAC, low-power comparator, and on-chip sample-and-hold. Its analog input mux supports eight channels with programmable configuration via 7-bit serial command word - including SD (single/diff), OS (odd/sign), COM (CH7/COM mode), UNI (unipolar/bipolar), and SLP (sleep enable).
It features dual reference outputs: VREF (2.5V ±20mV, ±15ppm/°C) and REFCOMP (4.096V buffered, bypassed with 10µF + 0.1µF). Timing is governed by internal factory-trimmed clock (3.5µs max conversion time, 1.5µs min acquisition), synchronized to external SCK up to 40MHz for serial readout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - guarantees monotonic transfer function and no missing codes across full temperature range (0°C to 70°C) |
| Sample Rate | 200ksps - enables real-time capture of signals up to 100kHz Nyquist bandwidth without aliasing |
| INL (Max) | ±2 LSB - ensures absolute accuracy ≤ ±0.003% FS, critical for calibration-sensitive instrumentation |
| SNR | 89 dB (typ, 1kHz input) - supports >14.5 ENOB for high-fidelity signal digitization with internal reference |
| Supply Current | 1.3 mA at 200ksps - enables battery-operated or thermally constrained designs without active cooling |
| Analog Input Range | 0–4.096 V (unipolar) or ±2.048 V (bipolar) - matches standard industrial sensor output ranges directly |
| Reference | Internal 2.5V bandgap (±15 ppm/°C) + 4.096V buffered REFCOMP - eliminates need for external precision reference in most applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead narrow plastic SSOP (GN), 0.15mm lead pitch, 5.0mm × 6.2mm body size, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.

|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH6 (Pins 1–7) | Analog Input Channel | Single-ended or differential "+" inputs; configurable per 7-bit command word |
| CH7/COM (Pin 8) | Configurable Analog Terminal | Acts as CH7 (single-ended) or common "–" input for differential pairs when COM=1 |

| VREF (Pin 10) | Internal Reference Tap | 2.5V output; can be overdriven externally via 6kΩ series resistor for improved accuracy/drift |
| CS/CONV (Pin 11) | Conversion Start / Serial Frame | Rising edge initiates conversion; falling edge enables serial data output on SDO |
| SCK (Pin 12) | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes 16-bit readout; supports up to 40MHz clock for fast data transfer |
| SDO (Pin 13) | Serial Data Output | Outputs conversion result: straight binary (unipolar) or two's complement (bipolar) |
| SDI (Pin 14) | Serial Data Input | Accepts 7-bit configuration word to select channel, mode, and sleep state |
| GND (Pin 15) | Analog/Digital Ground | Common return for all analog and digital circuitry; requires low-impedance ground plane |
| VDD (Pin 16) | Power Supply | Single 4.75–5.25V supply; bypass with 10µF + 0.1µF tantalum/ceramic to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 16-bit no-missing-codes performance | Guaranteed over full 0°C to 70°C operating range - eliminates code gaps in closed-loop control and metrology |
| Configurable 8-channel analog mux | Supports mixed single-ended/differential inputs and unipolar/bipolar modes via software-selectable command word |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8688IPWR | 8-channel, 16-bit, 500ksps; external reference required; SPI interface; 2.5V to 5.5V supply | Higher speed but higher power (4.5mA @ 500ksps); lacks integrated reference and nap mode | Select when throughput >200ksps is mandatory and external reference infrastructure already exists |
| AD7606BSTZ | 8-channel, 16-bit, 200ksps; simultaneous sampling; on-chip reference; parallel + SPI interface | Requires parallel bus or complex SPI framing; larger 64-lead LQFP package; higher cost | Select when phase-coherent multi-channel acquisition (e.g., motor current/voltage) is required |
Compared with ADS8688IPWR and AD7606BSTZ, the LTC1867ACGN#PBF offers lowest system-level BOM count due to integrated reference and smallest PCB footprint (SSOP-16), making it optimal for cost- and space-sensitive industrial DAQ where 200ksps suffices.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1867ACGN#PBF?
The LTC1867ACGN#PBF is rated for 0°C to 70°C ambient operation. This "C-grade" specification is confirmed in the official Analog Devices ordering table and applies to all electrical characteristics unless otherwise noted. The "A" suffix denotes enhanced AC performance (e.g., tighter INL), not extended temperature - the temperature grade is defined solely by the "C" or "I" suffix in the part number.
Does the LTC1867ACGN#PBF require an external reference?
No, the LTC1867ACGN#PBF does not require an external reference. It integrates a factory-trimmed 2.5V bandgap reference (VREF) and a buffered 4.096V output (REFCOMP), both specified over temperature. External reference use is optional - for example, tying VREF to GND and driving REFCOMP with a 5V source improves SNR to 90dB, but is not necessary for standard operation.
How does the automatic nap mode reduce power consumption in the LTC1867ACGN#PBF?
The LTC1867ACGN#PBF enters automatic nap mode when CS/CONV remains high after conversion completion. In this state, the analog front-end and reference buffers remain active, but the SAR logic and comparator bias are reduced, lowering supply current from 1.3mA to 150µA. This cuts average power significantly at sample rates below 200ksps without requiring software intervention.
Can the LTC1867ACGN#PBF perform differential measurements using only four channels?
Yes. The LTC1867ACGN#PBF supports four true differential pairs (CH0/CH1, CH2/CH3, CH4/CH5, CH6/CH7) when configured with SD=0 and COM=0. Each pair shares a common sampling instant, ensuring matched acquisition timing. The 7-bit command word also allows mixing differential and single-ended channels within one sequence - for example, measuring three differential thermocouples and one single-ended voltage simultaneously.
What is the maximum SCK frequency supported by the LTC1867ACGN#PBF during serial readout?
The LTC1867ACGN#PBF supports SCK frequencies up to 40MHz during serial readout, as specified in the Timing Characteristics table. At 40MHz, t2 (SDO valid after SCK↓) is guaranteed ≤22ns with CL = 25pF. For rising-edge capture, 20MHz is recommended to meet setup time requirements; falling-edge capture enables full 40MHz operation with proper host timing margins.
