Product details
Overview
LTC2326HMS-16#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 250ksps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with pseudo-differential inputs and true bipolar ±10.24V input range. It integrates a low-drift 2.048V internal reference, onboard reference buffer, and SPI-compatible serial interface supporting 1.8V–5V I/O logic. Designed for high-voltage industrial data acquisition, it delivers 93.5dB SNR, ±1.5LSB INL max, and guaranteed no missing codes at full resolution.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF datasheet, LTC2326HMS-16#PBF pinout, LTC2326HMS-16#PBF application, or LTC2326HMS-16#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its H-grade (–40°C to +125°C) operation, daisy-chain SPI mode, nap/sleep power management (28mW typical / 300μW sleep), and ±10.24V true bipolar input compatibility with high-impedance sensor interfaces.
Technical Context
The LTC2326HMS-16#PBF employs a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with internal oscillator timing, eliminating external clock dependencies. Its pseudo-differential input stage uses resistor-divider networks to level-shift ±10.24V signals to the ADC core's 0–4.096V range while maintaining common-mode rejection.
Conversion is initiated by a rising edge on CNV; BUSY asserts during acquisition and conversion (tCONV ≤ 3µs). The SPI interface supports both normal mode (RDL/SDI as bus enable) and chain mode (RDL/SDI as SDI), enabling multi-ADC daisy-chaining without additional control lines.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (3mm × 4.9mm, 0.65mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDLBYP (1) | 2.5V LDO bypass | Internal regulator output requiring 2.2µF ceramic decoupling; powers internal analog circuitry independently of VDD noise. |
| VDD (2) | 5V analog supply | Main analog power rail (4.75–5.25V); must be decoupled with 10µF ceramic capacitor to ensure stable conversion accuracy. |
| GND (3,6,16) | Analog/digital ground | Three dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR; require low-inductance PCB connection to common ground plane. |
| IN+ (4) | Pseudo-differential analog input (+) | Accepts true bipolar voltage from –10.24V to +10.24V relative to IN–; input impedance ~2kΩ due to internal resistor divider. |
| IN– (5) | Pseudo-differential analog input (–) | Sense reference point with ±500mV range; must connect to system ground or remote sense point to define common-mode baseline. |
| REFBUF (7) | Buffered reference output | Nominally 4.096V (2× REFIN); decoupled with 47µF ceramic capacitor; can be overdriven externally (2.5–5V) to scale input range. |
| REFIN (8) | Internal reference output / external reference input | 2.048V bandgap output (bypass with 100nF); accepts external reference 1.25–2.4V to adjust REFBUF and input range. |
| CNV (9) | Convert trigger | Rising-edge–sensitive control input; initiates acquisition and conversion sequence; logic levels referenced to OVDD. |
| CHAIN (10) | Daisy-chain mode select | High = chain mode (RDL/SDI becomes SDI); Low = normal mode (RDL/SDI enables SDO); sets serial interface topology. |
| BUSY (11) | Conversion status indicator | Active-high open-drain output signaling ongoing conversion; used for timing synchronization or interrupt generation. |
| RDL/SDI (12) | Serial bus enable / daisy-chain data input | Mode-dependent function: enables SDO in normal mode; receives serial data from upstream ADC in chain mode. |
| SCK (13) | Serial clock input | Master-controlled clock (up to 100MHz) synchronizing data transfer; rising edge clocks out MSB-first 2's complement data on SDO. |
| SDO (14) | Serial data output | Tri-state output delivering 16-bit conversion result or daisy-chain data; compatible with 1.8V–5V host logic levels. |
| OVDD (15) | I/O interface supply | Digital I/O voltage rail (1.71–5.25V); sets logic thresholds for CNV, CHAIN, BUSY, RDL/SDI, SCK, and SDO pins. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF?
The LTC2326HMS-16#PBF is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C (H-grade), with full electrical specifications guaranteed across this range. This makes it suitable for demanding industrial and automotive under-hood applications where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial or industrial grade limits. The device's internal reference drift remains ≤20ppm/°C over this entire span.
Does the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF require an external reference?
No-the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF includes a factory-trimmed 2.048V internal bandgap reference and a 2× gain reference buffer, enabling immediate operation with ±10.24V input range using only the internal resources. REFIN and REFBUF pins support optional external reference overdrive (1.25–2.4V on REFIN or 2.5–5V on REFBUF) for enhanced accuracy or custom input scaling, but it is not required for basic functionality.
How does the daisy-chain mode work on the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF?
When CHAIN pin is driven high, the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF enters daisy-chain mode: RDL/SDI becomes SDI (serial data input), accepting data from the SDO of the preceding device in the chain. SDO then outputs the concatenated result-first the local 16-bit code, then the upstream code-enabling multiple LTC2326HMS-16#PBF devices to share one SPI bus with minimal control lines. This is confirmed in the Functional Block Diagram and Pin Functions section of the datasheet.
What is the power consumption of the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF during active conversion?
At 250ksps sampling rate with IN+ = –10.24V and IN– = 0V, the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF draws 9.9mA from VDD and 5.6mA from OVDD, totaling 28mW typical power dissipation. Power scales dynamically with sample rate due to automatic nap mode between conversions. In sleep mode, total current drops to 300μW-verified in the Power Requirements table (page 5) of the official datasheet.
Is the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LTC232x family?
Yes-the LTC2326HMS-16#PBF shares identical 16-lead MSOP package, pinout, and functional pin assignments with LTC2325HMS-16#PBF and LTC2327HMS-16#PBF. Differences lie in sampling rate (250ksps vs 1Msps vs 500ksps) and feature set (e.g., nap mode presence), but PCB layout and firmware interface remain fully interchangeable across these variants.
