Product details
Overview
LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an 18-bit, 1 Msps, 8-channel successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with fully differential ±4.096V input range, 100 dB SNR (typical), and on-chip 2.048 V temperature-compensated reference. It operates from a single 5 V supply, supports SPI-compatible serial interface up to 100 MHz, and targets high-precision data acquisition in industrial process control systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF pinout, LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF application, or LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed no missing codes at 18 bits, ±2.75 LSB INL (max), 125°C operation capability, programmable sequencer depth of 16, and low 40 mW typical power dissipation at full throughput.
Technical Context
The LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF integrates a low-crosstalk 8-channel multiplexer with configurable input modes-fully differential, pseudo-differential unipolar (0 V to 4.096 V), and pseudo-differential bipolar (±2.048 V)-enabling flexible signal routing without external front-end switching. Its internal oscillator eliminates external clock dependency for conversion timing.
It features a single-shot-capable reference buffer, digital gain compression, and nap/sleep modes that scale power with sampling rate: 40 mW at 1 Msps, 6.25 mW in nap mode, and 300 µW in sleep mode. The device guarantees operation from 0°C to 70°C and supports 1.8 V to 5 V I/O logic levels via OVDD.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 18-bit with no missing codes - ensures full dynamic range utilization and deterministic quantization behavior |
| Sampling Rate | 1 Msps maximum - enables real-time capture of signals up to 500 kHz (Nyquist-limited) |
| SNR | 100 dB (fully differential, fIN = 1 kHz) - supports >16.6 effective number of bits (ENOB) in precision measurement |
| INL | ±2.75 LSB (max) - guarantees monotonicity and linearity critical for closed-loop control accuracy |
| Reference | Onboard 2.048 V ±5 mV (20 ppm/°C max) - eliminates need for external precision reference and reduces BOM count |
| Power Dissipation | 40 mW at 1 Msps - enables high-speed acquisition in thermally constrained embedded systems |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial-grade instrumentation and PLC modules |
Pinout & Package
32-lead 5 mm × 5 mm QFN package (UH) with exposed pad soldered to PCB ground. Pin 33 is the exposed thermal pad and must be connected to GND for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH7 | Analog input channels | Eight single-ended inputs configurable as fully differential pairs or pseudo-differential combinations |
| COM | Common-mode reference | Provides return path for pseudo-differential bipolar/unipolar modes; tied to mid-scale reference |
| ADCIN+, ADCIN− | Dedicated differential input pair | Direct high-fidelity path bypassing multiplexer; used for highest-accuracy channel |
| MUXOUT+, MUXOUT− | Multiplexer output pair | Delivers selected channel's differential signal to ADC core; enables external monitoring |
| CNV | Conversion start trigger | Rising edge initiates sample-and-hold and conversion; supports precise timing synchronization |
| BUSY | Conversion status indicator | Active-high signal asserts during conversion; enables interrupt-driven firmware polling |
| SDO, SDI, SCK, RDL | SPI-compatible serial interface | Supports 1.8 V–5 V logic; RDL enables three-state output control for bus sharing |
| REFBUF, REFIN | Reference buffer and input | REFBUF outputs 4.096 V when enabled; REFIN accepts 2.048 V external reference or disables internal buffer |
| VDD, OVDD, GND | Power supplies | VDD = 5 V analog supply; OVDD = independent I/O supply (1.71 V–5.25 V); multiple GND pins reduce noise coupling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-resolution SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7606C-18 | 8-channel, 18-bit, 1 MSPS, but uses parallel interface and requires external reference; higher 65 mW power | Best suited for FPGA-based systems with wide data buses and existing reference infrastructure | Choose AD7606C-18 if parallel interface simplifies host interface design and board space allows larger footprint |
| ADS8688IPWR | 8-channel, 16-bit, 1 MSPS, integrated PGA and reference; lower 92 dB SNR; SPI-only interface | Ideal for cost-sensitive applications where 16-bit resolution suffices and programmable gain adds value | Choose ADS8688IPWR when input signal conditioning (gain/attenuation) is required per channel and 16-bit ENOB is acceptable |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF?
The LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF supports a maximum sampling rate of 1 Msps, with a guaranteed conversion time of 527 ns and minimum inter-conversion period of 1 µs. This enables full 18-bit resolution sampling of signals up to 500 kHz while maintaining specified SNR and INL performance across all input ranges.
Does the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF require an external reference voltage?
No, the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF includes an onboard 2.048 V temperature-compensated reference with 20 ppm/°C max drift and a dedicated reference buffer. An external reference can be applied via REFIN only if overriding the internal reference is required; otherwise, the internal reference is fully functional and calibrated.
How does the programmable sequencer in the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF operate?
The LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF features a 16-deep programmable sequencer that stores channel selection, input range, and gain settings. Once configured via SPI, it autonomously cycles through entries on each CNV pulse-reducing host processor overhead and enabling deterministic, jitter-free multi-channel acquisition without software intervention.
What power-saving modes does the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF offer?
The LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF offers two low-power states: Nap mode (6.25 mW) automatically engages between conversions at reduced throughput, and Sleep mode (300 µW) disables the reference buffer and core circuitry entirely. Both modes retain register settings and resume operation within microseconds upon wake-up command.
Is the LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF pin-compatible with other devices in the LTC2373 family?
Yes, all variants of the LTC2373-18-including LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF, LTC2373IUH-18#TRPBF, and LTC2373HUH-18#TRPBF-share identical 32-lead 5 mm × 5 mm QFN (UH) packaging and pinout. Only the operating temperature grade differs: C-grade (0°C to 70°C) for LTC2373CUH-18#TRPBF.
