Product details
Overview
LTC2336HMS-18#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an 18-bit, 250ksps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with fully differential, true bipolar ±10.24V inputs, 100dB SNR, ±4LSB INL max, and integrated 2.048V low-drift reference. It operates from a single 5V supply and targets high-voltage industrial data acquisition requiring wide dynamic range and precision at extended temperature.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF datasheet, LTC2336HMS-18#PBF pinout, LTC2336HMS-18#PBF application, or LTC2336HMS-18#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 18-bit no-missing-codes operation, daisy-chain SPI interface compatibility across 1.8V–5V logic, internal oscillator timing, nap/sleep power management (28mW typical / 300μW sleep), and H-grade –40°C to +125°C operation.
Technical Context
The LTC2336HMS-18#PBF implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with a 45pF sampling capacitor and 50Ω switch on-resistance, enabling 7MHz input bandwidth and 1µs full-scale transient response. Its differential input stage uses resistor-divider networks to level-shift ±10.24V signals to the ADC core's 0–4.096V range while maintaining >67dB CMRR at 125kHz.
Conversion is initiated by a rising edge on CNV, with fixed 1.9–3µs conversion time set by an internal oscillator-eliminating external clock dependencies. The SPI-compatible serial interface supports both normal mode (RDL/SDI as bus enable) and daisy-chain mode (RDL/SDI as SDI), with SDO output in 2's complement format and timing validated down to 10ns SCK period.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 18-bit with guaranteed no missing codes-ensures monotonicity and full code coverage for precision measurement systems. |
| Sampling Rate | 250ksps maximum throughput with zero cycle latency-enables real-time capture of fast transients without pipeline delay. |
| Input Range | True bipolar ±10.24V fully differential-supports direct connection to industrial ±10V sensor outputs without external level-shifting. |
| SNR / THD | 100dB SNR and –115dB THD at 2kHz-meets demanding spectral purity requirements for FFT-based analysis and ATE applications. |
| Reference | Onboard 2.048V bandgap reference (20ppm/°C max drift) buffered to 4.096V-reduces BOM count and improves thermal stability over external references. |
| Power | 28mW typical at 250ksps; 300μW in sleep mode-enables low-power portable instrumentation and thermally constrained embedded designs. |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C (H-grade)-qualified for under-hood automotive, downhole oil & gas, and industrial process control environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead MSOP (3mm × 4.9mm), RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish (#PBF). Thermal resistance θJA = 110°C/W; TJMAX = 150°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDLBYP (1) | 2.5V LDO bypass | Internally regulated supply for analog core; requires 2.2µF ceramic decoupling to GND for noise suppression. |
| VDD (2) | 5V main supply | Primary analog power rail (4.75–5.25V); bypassed with 10µF ceramic capacitor to ensure stable conversion performance. |
| GND (3,6,16) | Analog/digital ground | Three dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane. |
| IN+, IN– (4,5) | Differential analog inputs | High-impedance inputs accepting ±10.24V true bipolar signal; modeled as 2kΩ RIN + 45pF CIN + 50Ω RON for drive circuit design. |
| REFBUF (7) | Buffered reference output | Nominally 4.096V (2×REFIN); decoupled with 47µF ceramic capacitor; can be overdriven 2.5–5V when internal buffer disabled. |
| REFIN (8) | Reference output/input | 2.048V bandgap reference output; bypassed with 100nF ceramic capacitor; accepts external 1.25–2.4V reference for improved accuracy. |
| CNV (9) | Convert trigger | Rising-edge–sensitive control input; powers up ADC and initiates conversion-no external timing circuitry required. |
| CHAIN (10) | Mode selector | Low = normal SPI mode (RDL/SDI = bus enable); high = daisy-chain mode (RDL/SDI = serial data input). |
| BUSY (11) | Conversion status | Active-high open-drain indicator; asserts at CNV↑ and deasserts when conversion result is ready on SDO. |
| RDL/SDI (12) | Configurable I/O | Function depends on CHAIN state: enables/disables SDO in normal mode; receives daisy-chain data in chain mode. |
| SCK (13) | Serial clock input | Accepts 1.8–5V logic; supports up to 100MHz SCK (10ns period); controls MSB-first data shift timing for SDO. |
| SDO (14) | Serial data output | 2's complement 18-bit result shifted out MSB first; compatible with standard SPI master devices across voltage domains. |
| OVDD (15) | I/O supply | Digital interface supply (1.71–5.25V); sets logic thresholds for all digital pins; bypassed with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature specification for the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF?
The LTC2336HMS-18#PBF is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C (H-grade), with guaranteed performance including ±4LSB INL, 100dB SNR, and 20ppm/°C reference drift across this full range. This exceeds the I-grade (–40°C to +85°C) and C-grade (0°C to +70°C) variants, making it suitable for under-hood automotive, downhole, and high-ambient industrial environments.
Does the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF require an external clock source for conversion timing?
No, the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF incorporates an internal oscillator that sets the conversion time (1.9–3µs), eliminating the need for an external clock. This simplifies system design, reduces jitter sensitivity, and ensures deterministic timing independent of host controller clock stability-critical for consistent FFT performance and real-time control applications.
Can the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF interface directly with a 1.8V microcontroller SPI port?
Yes, the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF supports 1.8V logic levels via its OVDD pin (1.71–5.25V range). When OVDD = 1.8V, all digital inputs (CNV, CHAIN, RDL/SDI, SCK) recognize 0.2×OVDD (0.36V) as VIL and 0.8×OVDD (1.44V) as VIH, and SDO outputs are compatible with 1.8V receivers-enabling seamless integration with low-voltage MCUs without level shifters.
How does the nap mode function in the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF, and what power savings does it provide?
The LTC2336HMS-18#PBF automatically enters nap mode between conversions, reducing supply current from 6.5mA (250ksps active) to 4.6mA during idle periods. This scales power dissipation with sampling rate-e.g., at 10ksps, average power drops to ~1.1mW. Nap mode maintains full functionality and wake-up readiness, unlike sleep mode (300μW), which requires reinitialization.
Is the LTC2336HMS-18#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LTC2336 family, such as the LTC2336CMS-18#PBF?
Yes, all LTC2336-18 variants-including LTC2336CMS-18#PBF (C-grade), LTC2336IMS-18#PBF (I-grade), and LTC2336HMS-18#PBF (H-grade)-share identical 16-lead MSOP packaging, pinout, electrical interface, and functional behavior. Only the guaranteed temperature range and associated parametric limits differ; PCB layouts and firmware are fully interchangeable across grades.
