Product details
Overview
LTC2341CUH-18#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, 18-bit, simultaneous-sampling SAR ADC with differential wide common-mode inputs, ±4LSB INL, 95dB SNR, and per-channel SoftSpan™ configurable input ranges (±4.096V, 0–4.096V, ±2.048V, 0–2.048V). It operates at 666ksps per channel from a 5V supply and integrates a 4.096V reference buffer, enabling direct digitization of industrial sensor, PLC, and medical imaging signals without external signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF datasheet, LTC2341CUH-18#PBF pinout, LTC2341CUH-18#PBF application, or LTC2341CUH-18#PBF equivalent, this device delivers guaranteed 18-bit no-missing-codes performance, rail-to-rail input overdrive tolerance, 105dB CMRR, and selectable CMOS/LVDS serial interfaces - critical for high-fidelity, multi-channel data acquisition in temperature-stable industrial environments.
Technical Context
The LTC2341CUH-18#PBF implements a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture with two independent analog front-ends sharing a single conversion core, enabling true simultaneous sampling. Its SoftSpan™ configuration logic allows per-conversion range selection via digital control, supporting bipolar and unipolar modes without hardware reconfiguration.
It features an integrated 4.096V reference buffer (REFBUF) with 20ppm/°C max drift, internal conversion clock with zero cycle latency, and dual I/O modes: SPI-compatible CMOS (1.8V–5V) or LVDS (2.375V–5.25V OVDD), each supporting one- or two-lane output for throughput optimization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 18-bit - guarantees full 262,144-code dynamic range with no missing codes across temperature. |
| Sampling Rate | 666 ksps per channel (dual-channel simultaneous) - enables real-time capture of 333 kHz bandwidth signals per channel. |
| INL / DNL | ±4 LSB max INL, ±0.9 LSB max DNL - ensures monotonicity and <0.015% end-point linearity error in precision measurement systems. |
| SNR / THD | 95 dB SNR, –114 dB THD @ 2 kHz - supports >15.5 ENOB for low-distortion spectral analysis in medical and test equipment. |
| Input Common Mode Range | 0 V to VDD (5 V) - accepts arbitrary DC-biased or AC-coupled inputs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| CMRR | 105 dB @ 200 Hz - rejects shared noise in differential sensor bridges and motor current sensing applications. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 32-lead (5 mm × 5 mm) plastic QFN (UH package); exposed pad (Pin 33) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN0+, IN0– | Differential analog input, Channel 0 | Accepts ±4.096V, 0–4.096V, ±2.048V, or 0–2.048V signals with 0V–5V common mode; 105 dB CMRR suppresses noise coupling. |
| IN1+, IN1– | Differential analog input, Channel 1 | Independent simultaneous sampling path; crosstalk <–119 dB prevents inter-channel interference in dual-sensor systems. |
| REFIN | Internal bandgap reference output / external reference input | Outputs 2.048 V (±5 mV); accepts 1.25–2.2 V external reference to calibrate system gain and offset. |
| REFBUF | Reference buffer output (2× REFIN) | Provides 4.096 V (±5 mV) master reference; requires 47 µF ceramic bypass; disable by grounding REFIN when overdriving externally. |
| LVDS/CMOS | I/O interface mode select | Tie to OVDD for LVDS (low-noise, high-speed), tie to GND for CMOS (1.8–5 V logic compatibility). |
| CNV | Conversion start trigger | Edge-triggered; initiates simultaneous sampling on both channels; timing-critical for synchronized multi-axis acquisition. |
| SDO0/SDO1, SCKO, SCKI, SDI, CS, BUSY | Serial interface signals | Supports 100 MHz CMOS SPI or 250 Mbps LVDS; BUSY indicates conversion completion; CS enables output drivers. |
| PD | Power-down control | Active-high; reduces current to ≤0.33 µA (H-grade); double-pulse triggers global reset for deterministic startup. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7606C-18 | 18-bit, 8-channel, 1 MSPS, internal reference, parallel/serial interface; no SoftSpan™; ±1 LSB INL; 100 dB SNR. | Higher channel count but fixed ±10 V input range; lacks per-channel range flexibility and simultaneous sampling guarantee across all 8 channels. | Select for cost-sensitive, multi-input systems where range programmability is not required and parallel bus interface is preferred. |
| ADS8688 | 16-bit, 8-channel, 500 kSPS, integrated PGA, SPI interface; ±0.5 LSB INL; 89 dB SNR; 125°C rated. | Lower resolution and SNR; includes programmable gain amplifier (PGA) but no simultaneous sampling; optimized for direct sensor interfacing. | Select when on-chip PGA eliminates external amplification and 16-bit resolution suffices for vibration monitoring or HVAC control. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF in dual-channel mode?
The LTC2341CUH-18#PBF achieves 666 ksps per channel in dual-channel simultaneous sampling mode. When only one channel is enabled, throughput increases to 1000 ksps. This is enabled by its internal conversion clock and zero-cycle-latency architecture - no pipeline delay or dead time between conversions.
Does the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF includes an integrated 2.048 V bandgap reference (REFIN) and a buffered 4.096 V output (REFBUF) with 20 ppm/°C max drift. External referencing is optional: REFIN accepts 1.25–2.2 V for improved accuracy, or REFBUF can be overdriven with 2.5–5 V when the internal buffer is disabled.
How does the SoftSpan™ feature work on the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF?
The SoftSpan™ feature on the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF allows per-conversion, software-selectable input ranges: ±4.096 V, 0–4.096 V, ±2.048 V, or 0–2.048 V - configured independently for each channel via SPI command. This eliminates external gain-switching circuitry and enables adaptive signal conditioning in real time.
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF?
The LTC2341CUH-18#PBF is specified for the C-grade temperature range: 0°C to +70°C. It is pin- and function-compatible with the I-grade (–40°C to +85°C) and H-grade (–40°C to +125°C) variants (LTC2341IUH-18#PBF and LTC2341HUH-18#PBF), allowing seamless upgrade paths for extended environmental requirements.
Can the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF interface directly with an FPGA using LVDS?
Yes, the LTC2341CUH-18#PBF supports native LVDS serial output with differential SDO/SCKO pairs, 250 Mbps data rate, and 1.1–1.3 V common-mode voltage. When LVDS/CMOS pin is tied to OVDD, the device configures for LVDS mode - enabling low-jitter, noise-immune communication with Xilinx or Intel FPGAs without level translators.
