Product details
Overview
LTC2358CLX-18#PBF from Analog Devices is an 18-bit, 8-channel simultaneous-sampling SAR ADC with buffered differential inputs, ±10.24V input range, 200ksps per channel throughput, and 96.4dB SNR. It features per-channel SoftSpan™ programmable input ranges (±10.24V/0–10.24V/±5.12V/0–5.12V), 128dB CMRR, and rail-to-rail input overdrive tolerance - enabling direct digitization of high-voltage industrial sensor signals without external signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF datasheet, LTC2358CLX-18#PBF pinout, LTC2358CLX-18#PBF application, or LTC2358CLX-18#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include simultaneous 8-channel sampling integrity, picoamp-level input leakage (5pA max at 85°C), ±3.5LSB INL over ±10.24V range, SPI/LVDS interface flexibility, and 48-lead LQFP package compatibility with industrial thermal and layout constraints.
Technical Context
The LTC2358CLX-18#PBF implements a true 18-bit successive approximation register architecture with integrated analog input buffers and internal 4.096V reference buffer. Its SoftSpan™ per-channel configuration logic enables independent range selection on every conversion cycle - supporting mixed-signal acquisition across bipolar and unipolar sources within a single frame.
It operates from dual analog supplies (VCC = +7.5V to +38V, VEE = –16.5V to 0V) and digital supplies (VDD = 4.75–5.25V, OVDD = 1.71–5.25V for CMOS or 2.375–5.25V for LVDS), delivering 219mW typical power dissipation at full 8-channel 200ksps operation while maintaining 128dB common-mode rejection at 200Hz and <3psRMS aperture jitter.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-precision multichannel ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7606C-18 | 18-bit, 8-channel, 1MSPS, but uses external reference and lacks per-channel SoftSpan™; 500pA input leakage vs. 5pA. | Requires external reference buffer and gain switching for mixed-range inputs; higher noise floor limits SNR to 92.5dB. | Select when maximum throughput (1MSPS) outweighs input flexibility and ultra-low leakage requirements. |
| ADS8688 | 16-bit, 8-channel, 500kSPS, integrated PGA and reference; 10nA input leakage at 85°C. | Includes programmable gain amplifier (±10.24V range fixed), but lower resolution and higher leakage limit DC accuracy. | Select when on-chip PGA simplification is prioritized over 18-bit fidelity and picoamp-level sensor interfacing. |
Compared with AD7606C-18 and ADS8688, the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF uniquely combines 18-bit no-missing-codes assurance, per-channel programmable input ranges, and 5pA input leakage - making it optimal for high-accuracy, mixed-signal industrial DAQ where sensor interface integrity and range agility are critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF?
The LTC2358CLX-18#PBF is rated for 0°C to 70°C ambient operation, as indicated by the "C" grade suffix. This commercial-grade variant is optimized for controlled-environment applications such as laboratory test equipment and non-harsh industrial control panels where extended temperature operation is not required. The device maintains full 18-bit performance and ±3.5LSB INL across this range.
Does the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF includes an integrated 4.096V reference buffer (REFBUF) and internal reference (VREFIN ≈ 2.048V), eliminating the need for an external reference in most applications. The REFBUF can be overdriven with an external 2.5–5V reference via REFIN if higher accuracy or custom voltage scaling is required, but default operation uses the internal source.
How does the SoftSpan™ feature work on the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF?
The SoftSpan™ feature on the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF allows each of the eight input channels to be independently configured on a per-conversion basis for ±10.24V, 0–10.24V, ±5.12V, or 0–5.12V full-scale ranges. Configuration is controlled via dedicated serial command bits, enabling mixed-range acquisition (e.g., one channel measuring ±10V sensor output, another reading 0–5V thermistor voltage) without hardware reconfiguration.
What digital interface options does the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF support?
The LTC2358CLX-18#PBF supports both CMOS and LVDS serial interfaces, selected via hardware pin configuration. In CMOS mode, it offers flexible lane count (1–8 SDO lines) and OVDD compatibility from 1.71V to 5.25V. In LVDS mode, it provides differential signaling with 275–425mV output swing and 100Ω termination, reducing EMI and enabling longer trace runs in noisy industrial settings.
Can the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF operate with only a single analog supply?
No - the LTC2358CLX-18#PBF requires dual analog supplies: a positive rail (VCC = +7.5V to +38V) and a negative rail (VEE = –16.5V to 0V). This dual-supply architecture enables its ±10.24V input range and 30VP-P common-mode capability. Operating with only one rail violates absolute maximum ratings and will damage the device or cause undefined behavior.
