Product details
Overview
LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit + sign successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with differential inputs, 5 Msps throughput, ±0.25 LSB typical INL, 73 dB SNR at 2.2 MHz, and integrated 4.096 V temperature-compensated reference. It operates from a single 3.3 V or 5 V supply and delivers one-cycle latency in high-speed data acquisition systems requiring wide dynamic range and high common-mode rejection.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF pinout, LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF application, or LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 8 VP-P differential input range, CMOS/LVDS SPI-compatible serial interface, guaranteed no-missing-codes performance across –40°C to 125°C (C-grade: 0°C to 70°C), and low-power nap/sleep modes supporting industrial and automotive signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF implements a 13-bit SAR architecture with two-phase operation: acquisition (sample capacitor connected to AIN+/AIN–) followed by conversion using a binary-weighted CDAC and differential comparator referenced to REFOUT. Its transfer function outputs 13-bit two's complement codes spanning ±REFOUT for fully differential inputs, delivering true 12-bit resolution with sign bit.
It supports three I/O modes via the CMOS/LVDS pin: CMOS (single-ended SDO+/SCK+), LVDS (differential SDO±/SCK± with 100 Ω termination), and low-power LVDS. Internal reference buffer provides 4.096 V (or 2.048 V) with ≤20 ppm/°C drift, while REFIN accepts 1.25 V external reference or disables REFOUT buffer when grounded.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit + sign (13-bit two's complement output); enables bipolar measurement with full-scale digitization of ±4.096 V differential input. |
| Sampling Rate | 5 Msps maximum; supports real-time capture of signals up to 2.2 MHz Nyquist bandwidth with one-cycle latency. |
| INL | ±0.25 LSB typical, ±1 LSB guaranteed; ensures monotonicity and accurate end-point linearity for precision instrumentation. |
| SNR | 73.3 dB typical at fIN = 2.2 MHz; corresponds to ~12.1 effective bits under full-scale sine-wave conditions. |
| Power Dissipation | 50 mW typical at VDD = 5 V, 5 Msps; reduces to 12 mW in nap mode and 0.5 µW in sleep mode for duty-cycled systems. |
| Input Range | 8 VP-P differential (±REFOUT), with 0 V to VDD common-mode range; allows direct interfacing to op-amp drivers without level-shifting. |
| Reference | Internal 4.096 V (or 2.048 V) buffered reference, ≤20 ppm/°C drift; eliminates need for external reference in most applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (4 mm × 5 mm), exposed pad (Pin 17) soldered to ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 5, 8, 11) | Ground reference | Multiple dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and ensure stable reference for analog and digital sections. |
| REFIN (Pin 2) | 1.25 V reference buffer I/O | Outputs 1.25 V internally; grounding disables REFOUT buffer to enable external reference injection into REFOUT. |
| REFOUT (Pin 3) | 4.096 V reference output | Provides temperature-compensated 4.096 V reference; requires 10 µF ceramic decoupling for stability. |
| VDD (Pin 4) | Analog power supply | Accepts 3.13 V to 5.25 V; powers core ADC, reference, and internal LDO; bypassed with 1 µF ceramic. |
| AIN+, AIN– (Pins 6, 7) | Differential analog inputs | Support ±REFOUT full-scale swing; input capacitance 10 pF, on-resistance ~15 Ω; tolerate 0 V to VDD common-mode. |
| CNV (Pin 9) | Convert trigger input | TTL-compatible; rising edge initiates sampling, falling edge starts conversion and serial readout; one-cycle latency. |
| CMOS/LVDS (Pin 10) | I/O interface mode select | GND = CMOS; OVDD = LVDS; floating = low-power LVDS; configures SDO/SCK signaling and current drive. |
| OVDD (Pin 12) | Digital I/O supply | 1.71 V to 2.5 V; sets logic levels for SDO/SCK; bypassed with 1 µF ceramic; independent of VDD. |
| SDO+ (Pin 14) | Serial data output (CMOS) | MSB-first output on SCK falling edge; active only in CMOS mode; logic level referenced to OVDD. |
| SCK+ (Pin 16) | Serial clock input (CMOS) | Single-ended clock input; falling edge clocks data out; supports up to 105 MHz for 5 Msps operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide input common-mode range | 0 V to VDD enables direct connection to rail-to-rail op-amps without level-shifting circuitry. |

| Configurable digital interface | CMOS, LVDS, or low-power LVDS I/O modes selectable via single pin-supports FPGA/CPLD integration with minimal board space. |
| Ultra-low power states | Nap mode (2.4 mA) and sleep mode (0.1 µA at 3.3 V) reduce system power during idle periods without losing configuration. |
| No missing codes guarantee | Guaranteed 12-bit monotonicity across full temperature range simplifies calibration and ensures reliable zero-crossing detection. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF?
The LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF is rated for 0°C to 70°C (Commercial grade). This is confirmed by the "C" suffix in the part number and the package marking table in the datasheet. It is distinct from the I-grade (–40°C to 85°C) and H-grade (–40°C to 125°C) variants, which carry "I" or "H" prefixes. The device meets all electrical specifications within this range without derating.
Does the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF require an external reference?
No, the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF does not require an external reference. It integrates a low-drift (≤20 ppm/°C) 4.096 V (or 2.048 V) temperature-compensated reference buffer on-chip. The REFIN pin provides a 1.25 V buffered output and can be grounded to disable the internal REFOUT buffer, enabling use of an external reference-but this is optional, not mandatory.
Can the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF operate with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF operates from a single 3.3 V supply (VDD = 3.13 V to 3.47 V). At 3.3 V, it achieves 5 Msps sampling, 73 dB SNR, and dissipates 27 mW in active mode. OVDD must be set between 1.71 V and 2.5 V independently, supporting 1.8 V or 2.5 V logic interfaces regardless of VDD.
How does the CMOS/LVDS pin configure the serial interface on the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF?
The CMOS/LVDS pin (Pin 10) selects the digital interface mode: grounded for CMOS (single-ended SDO+/SCK+), tied to OVDD for LVDS (differential SDO±/SCK± with 100 Ω termination), or left floating for low-power LVDS. This pin directly controls driver strength and termination behavior-no register writes or configuration sequences are needed.
What power-saving modes does the LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF support?
The LTC2311CMSE-12#TRPBF supports Nap Mode (2.4 mA typical at 3.3 V) and Sleep Mode (0.1 µA typical at 3.3 V), both entered via CNV timing control. In Nap Mode, the reference remains active for fast wake-up; in Sleep Mode, reference and digital circuits are powered down. REFOUT wake-up time is 10 ms with 10 µF capacitor.
