Product details
Overview
LTC2360CS6#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 12-bit, 100ksps successive-approximation ADC in a 6-lead TSOT-23 package, operating from a single 2.35V–3.6V supply with 0.5mA typical supply current and 73dB SNR. It features single-ended analog input (0V to VDD), no data latency, and sleep mode drawing only 0.1μA - ideal for battery-powered sensor interfaces requiring compact size and micro-power operation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2360CS6#TRPBF pinout, LTC2360CS6#TRPBF application, or LTC2360CS6#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100ksps throughput at 1.5mW, TSOT-23-6 footprint compatibility, VDD-referenced input range, SPI/MICROWIRE™ serial interface timing, and guaranteed operation from 0°C to 70°C.
Technical Context
The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF uses an internal sample-and-hold and successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with conversion time of 8μs and acquisition time of 2μs. Its analog input is high-impedance and referenced directly to VDD (no external reference required), supporting full-scale spans from 0V to VDD.
Serial communication follows a 3-wire SPI-compatible protocol: CONV rising edge initiates conversion and disables SDO; CONV falling edge enables SDO and clocks out 12-bit MSB-first data on SCK falling edges. The device automatically enters sleep mode after conversion completion unless actively clocked.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit with no missing codes - ensures monotonic transfer function and unambiguous digital representation across full scale. |
| Sampling Rate | 100ksps maximum - supports real-time monitoring of signals up to 50kHz Nyquist bandwidth. |
| SNR | 73dB typical at fIN = 49kHz - enables >11.8 effective bits for precision DC and low-frequency AC measurements. |
| Supply Current | 0.5mA typical at 100ksps; drops to 0.1μA in sleep mode - reduces average power in duty-cycled systems. |
| Analog Input Range | 0V to VDD (2.35V–3.6V) - eliminates need for external reference or level-shifting circuitry when VDD is stable. |
| Integral Linearity | ±0.25LSB typical - limits measurement error to ±0.006% of full scale, critical for calibration-sensitive applications. |
| Power Dissipation | 1.5mW at 100ksps (VDD = 3V) - enables thermal-safe placement in dense PCB layouts without heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead plastic TSOT-23 (S6), 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint, 0.95mm height, JEDEC MO-220 compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (Pin 1) | Positive supply input | Supplies core logic and analog circuitry; also defines full-scale input range (0V to VDD); requires 2.2μF ceramic bypass to GND. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Analog/digital ground reference | Single-point connection to solid ground plane; separates analog return path from noisy digital currents. |
| AIN (Pin 3) | Analog input | High-impedance single-ended input referenced to GND; accepts 0V to VDD signals without external buffering. |
| SCK (Pin 4) | Serial clock input | Controls data shift timing; SDO transitions occur on falling edge; max frequency 10MHz. |
| SDO (Pin 5) | Three-state serial data output | Outputs 12-bit conversion result MSB-first followed by trailing zeros; tri-states when CONV is high. |
| CONV (Pin 6) | Convert control input | Active-high signal; rising edge starts conversion, falling edge enables SDO; controls sleep/wake state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, 200ksps, 2.7–5.25V supply, SO-8 package | Lower resolution and larger footprint; lacks sleep mode (<1μA standby) | Select only if 8-bit precision suffices and board space allows SO-8; not drop-in compatible. |
| MAX11100ETE+ | 12-bit, 100ksps, 2.7–3.6V, 12-lead TDFN; includes internal reference and PGA | Higher integration but larger package and higher cost; requires reference decoupling | Choose when system needs programmable gain or guaranteed reference stability; not pin-compatible. |
Compared with ADS7822U and MAX11100ETE+, the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF delivers superior 12-bit linearity (±0.25LSB) in the smallest footprint (TSOT-23-6), with lowest active power (0.5mA) and deepest sleep (0.1μA), making it optimal for ultra-compact, battery-constrained designs where external reference is already available.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF?
The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF has a maximum sampling rate of 100ksps, corresponding to a minimum throughput time of 10μs. This rate is fixed per device variant - the LTC2360 family is distinct from the LTC2361 (250ksps) and LTC2362 (500ksps), and the CS6 package does not support higher speeds. The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF achieves this with 0.5mA typical supply current at VDD = 3V.
Does the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF does not require an external reference. It uses the VDD supply as its reference, providing a 0V to VDD analog input range. This architecture eliminates the need for a separate reference IC or resistor divider, reducing component count and layout complexity. The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF is therefore functionally distinct from the TS8-package variants (e.g., LTC2360CTS8#TRPBF) which support dedicated VREF pins.
What is the pin configuration and package type of the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF?
The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF uses a 6-lead plastic TSOT-23 (S6) package with exposed pad. Pin 1 is VDD, Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is AIN, Pin 4 is SCK, Pin 5 is SDO, and Pin 6 is CONV. This compact 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint is JEDEC MO-220 compliant and optimized for high-density PCB layouts where space is constrained.
How does the sleep mode function on the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF?
The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF automatically enters sleep mode after conversion completion when the CONV pin remains high. In this state, bias currents are shut down and only leakage current flows - typically 0.1μA across 0°C to 70°C. Waking occurs on the falling edge of CONV, followed by 2μs acquisition time before the next conversion. This feature enables dramatic average power reduction in duty-cycled systems.
Is the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF compatible with standard SPI interfaces?
Yes, the LTC2360CS6#TRPBF implements a 3-wire SPI/MICROWIRE™-compatible serial interface: CONV acts as chip select, SCK provides clocking, and SDO outputs data MSB-first on the falling edge of SCK. It requires no MISO/MOSI bidirectional lines or additional control signals. The LTC2360CS6#TRPBF supports SCK frequencies up to 10MHz and delivers 12-bit data followed by trailing zeros - fully interoperable with standard MCU SPI peripherals configured for slave mode.
