Product details
Overview
LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 500ksps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with ±0.5LSB INL max, 97dB SNR at 2kHz, and fully differential ±VREF input range (2.5V to 5.1V reference). It operates from a single 2.5V supply, consumes 6.8mW at full speed, and features digital gain compression (DGC) for single-supply amplifier interfacing - used in high-speed data acquisition systems requiring precision, low power, and thermal robustness up to 70°C.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF pinout, LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF application, or LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 16-bit no-missing-codes operation, SPI-compatible daisy-chain interface, internal conversion clock, DGC-enabled 0.5V–4.5V input range with 5V reference, and 4mm × 3mm DFN package with exposed ground pad.
Technical Context
The LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with a 16-bit CDAC and differential comparator, supporting true bipolar ±VREF input sampling without pipeline latency. Its internal oscillator eliminates external clock dependency, and auto power-down between conversions scales current draw from 2.7mA at 500ksps to 0.9µA in standby.
Digital gain compression (DGC) is controlled via the REF/DGC pin: grounding it remaps zero-scale from 0V to 0.1·VREF and full-scale from VREF to 0.9·VREF, enabling rail-to-rail amplifier drive from a single 5.5V supply while preserving full 16-bit resolution and 97dB SNR performance.

Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead (4mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17), rated for 0°C to 70°C operation. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CHAIN (1) | Mode control input | Selects daisy-chain mode (high) or normal bus-enable mode (low); determines RDL/SDI function. |
| VDD (2) | Analog supply | 2.5V ±62.5mV supply; powers core ADC and reference buffer; requires 10µF ceramic bypass. |
| GND (3,6,10,16) | Analog/digital ground | Common return for analog inputs, reference, and digital logic; multiple pins reduce ground impedance. |

| REF (7) | Reference voltage input | 2.5V–5.1V external reference; decoupled with 47µF X5R capacitor for noise immunity. |
| REF/DGC (8) | Reference/DGC mode select | Ground to enable DGC (0.1–0.9×VREF input range); tie to REF to disable DGC (±VREF range). |
| CNV (9) | Convert trigger | Rising-edge initiated conversion; powers up ADC and starts acquisition phase with no latency. |
| BUSY (11) | Status indicator | Active-high open-drain output signaling conversion in progress; synchronizes host read timing. |

| SCK (13) | Serial clock | Up to 100MHz SPI clock; rising-edge sampled; defines SDO timing and data rate. |
| SDO (14) | Serial data output | 2's complement 16-bit result shifted MSB-first on SCK rising edges; supports daisy-chain readout. |
| OVDD (15) | I/O supply | 1.71V–5.25V logic supply; sets voltage thresholds for all digital pins; bypass with 0.1µF capacitor. |
| GND (17) | Exposed thermal pad | DFN-specific ground connection; mandatory soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and noise reduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8860IDRCT | 16-bit, 1MSPS, 92dB SNR, 2.5V supply, SPI interface; no DGC; 3mm × 3mm VSSOP package. | Lacks digital gain compression and has lower SNR; requires dual-supply amplifier for full ±VREF swing. | Choose when higher throughput (1MSPS) is prioritized over SNR and single-supply simplicity. |
| MAX11198ETE+ | 16-bit, 500ksps, 94.5dB SNR, 2.5V supply, SPI; includes internal reference; 16-pin TQFN (4mm × 4mm). | Integrated 4.096V reference reduces BOM count but limits input range flexibility vs. external 2.5–5.1V VREF. | Choose when reference stability and board space are critical, and fixed 4.096V scaling suffices. |
Compared with ADS8860IDRCT and MAX11198ETE+, the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF uniquely combines 97dB SNR, DGC-enabled single-supply drive, and deterministic 500ksps timing - making it optimal for applications where dynamic range, power efficiency, and analog interface simplicity are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF?
The LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF supports a maximum sampling rate of 500ksps, with a guaranteed conversion time of 1.5µs and no pipeline latency. This enables real-time capture of signals with up to 250kHz bandwidth while maintaining full 16-bit resolution and ±0.5LSB INL specification across the full operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.
Does the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF requires an external reference voltage applied to the REF pin, with a specified range of 2.5V to 5.1V. The device does not include an internal reference; instead, it relies on a high-stability external source (e.g., LT6657 or ADR4550) decoupled with a 47µF X5R ceramic capacitor to achieve its 97dB SNR and ±0.5LSB INL performance.
How does Digital Gain Compression (DGC) work on the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF?
Digital Gain Compression (DGC) on the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF is enabled by grounding the REF/DGC pin. This remaps the full-scale input range from ±VREF to 0.1·VREF to 0.9·VREF - for example, 0.5V to 4.5V with a 5V reference - allowing the driving amplifier to operate from a single 5.5V supply while preserving full 16-bit resolution and 97dB SNR performance.
What package type is used for the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF?
The LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF uses a 16-lead plastic DFN package measuring 4mm × 3mm with an exposed thermal pad (Pin 17). This package is rated for 0°C to 70°C operation and requires the exposed pad to be soldered directly to the PCB ground plane to ensure proper thermal dissipation and low-noise performance.
Can the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF interface with 1.8V logic systems?
Yes, the LTC2377CDE-16#TRPBF supports 1.8V logic interfaces via its OVDD pin, which accepts supply voltages from 1.71V to 5.25V. When OVDD = 1.8V, all digital inputs (CNV, SCK, CHAIN, RDL/SDI) recognize 0.2·OVDD (0.36V) as low and 0.8·OVDD (1.44V) as high, and the SDO output drives valid logic levels compatible with 1.8V CMOS receivers - enabling seamless integration with ultra-low-voltage microcontrollers and FPGAs.
