Product details
Overview
LTC2372CUH-18#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an 18-bit, 500ksps, 8-channel successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with integrated 2.048V temperature-compensated reference and SPI-compatible serial interface. It supports fully differential (±4.096V), pseudo-differential unipolar (0–4.096V), and pseudo-differential bipolar (±2.048V) input ranges, achieves ±2.75LSB max INL, 100dB typical SNR (fully differential), and operates from a single 5V supply with 1.8–5V I/O compatibility. It is used in high-precision industrial data acquisition systems requiring low crosstalk and guaranteed no missing codes.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF datasheet, LTC2372CUH-18#PBF pinout, LTC2372CUH-18#PBF application, or LTC2372CUH-18#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 32-lead 5mm × 5mm QFN package, programmable 16-deep sequencer, on-chip reference buffer, sleep mode (300μW), and guaranteed operation from 0°C to 70°C.
Technical Context
The LTC2372CUH-18#PBF implements a true SAR architecture with no pipeline delay or cycle latency, enabling deterministic conversion timing critical for closed-loop control. Its highly configurable 8-channel multiplexer features low crosstalk (<–107dB) and supports three distinct analog input configurations via register programming - each with validated INL, SNR, and THD performance across temperature.
Internal timing is governed by an onboard oscillator, eliminating external clock dependency for conversion start; the CNV signal initiates sampling, and BUSY indicates conversion completion. The SPI interface operates at up to 100MHz SCK (10ns period), supports 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V logic levels, and includes RDL-controlled tri-state output for bus sharing.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF?
The LTC2372CUH-18#PBF achieves a maximum sampling rate of 500ksps with guaranteed timing specifications across its full operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C). This rate is supported by its internal oscillator and fixed 2µs conversion cycle time, enabling deterministic real-time acquisition without external clock management.
Does the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF require an external reference?
No, the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF integrates a precision 2.048V temperature-compensated reference with 20ppm/°C max drift and a dedicated reference buffer (REFBUF) that outputs 4.096V. An external reference may be applied via REFIN (1.25–2.4V), but it is not required for standard operation.
What input configurations does the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF support?
The LTC2372CUH-18#PBF supports three user-selectable analog input configurations: fully differential (±4.096V), pseudo-differential unipolar (0V to 4.096V), and pseudo-differential bipolar (±2.048V). Each configuration is validated for INL, SNR, and THD performance per the datasheet, and selection is made via configuration register settings.
How does the programmable sequencer in the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF operate?
The LTC2372CUH-18#PBF includes a 16-deep programmable sequencer that autonomously cycles through up to 16 channel selections (CH0–CH7) in user-defined order. Once configured, it performs conversions without host intervention, reducing SPI traffic and enabling efficient multi-channel monitoring in embedded systems.
What is the power consumption of the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF in sleep mode?
In sleep mode, the LTC2372CUH-18#PBF consumes only 300μW (typical), achieved by disabling the reference buffer, ADC core, and digital interface while retaining register state. This ultra-low power state is ideal for battery-powered instrumentation during idle periods, with wake-up time under 200ms when re-enabling REFBUF.
