Product details
Overview
LTC2380CMS-24#PBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is a 24-bit, 1.5 Msps/2 Msps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with integrated real-time digital averaging filter, ±VREF fully differential input (2.5 V to 5.1 V), ±3.5 ppm INL max, and 28 mW power consumption at 2 Msps - deployed in high-precision seismic data acquisition systems requiring ultra-low noise and guaranteed no missing codes.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF datasheet, LTC2380CMS-24#PBF pinout, LTC2380CMS-24#PBF application, or LTC2380CMS-24#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 16-pin MSOP package, daisy-chain SPI interface supporting 1.8 V–5 V logic, integrated digital gain compression (DGC), 50/60 Hz rejection, and dynamic range scalability from 101 dB (1.5 Msps) to 145 dB (30.5 sps).
Technical Context
The LTC2380CMS-24#PBF implements a charge redistribution capacitor DAC (CDAC) architecture with 24-bit resolution and no missing codes across temperature. Its conversion cycle comprises acquisition (sampling IN+/IN– onto 45 pF internal capacitors) followed by successive approximation against binary-weighted fractions of VREF, delivering 2's complement output data.
Digital filtering operates in real time without configuration registers: averaging 1–65,536 samples dynamically adjusts effective resolution and noise floor, enabling selectable trade-offs between throughput (up to 2 Msps) and dynamic range (up to 145 dB). The REF/DGC pin selects full-scale definition (±VREF vs. 10–90% of ±VREF) for digital gain compression.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 24-bit SAR ADC with guaranteed no missing codes - ensures monotonicity and integrity for precision measurement applications. |
| Sampling Rate | Up to 2 Msps maximum (N ≥ 4); 1.5 Msps typical for full dynamic performance - supports high-speed transient capture while maintaining DC accuracy. |
| INL Error | ±3.5 ppm maximum over temperature - corresponds to <0.00035% full-scale error, critical for calibration-grade instrumentation. |
| Dynamic Range | 101 dB at 1.5 Msps (N = 1); 145 dB at 30.5 sps (N = 65536) - enables simultaneous detection of microvolt-level signals amid large DC offsets. |
| Power Consumption | 28 mW at 2 Msps; <2.5 µW in power-down mode - allows battery-operated or thermally constrained deployments without cooling. |
| Reference Range | VREF = 2.5 V to 5.1 V - supports flexible signal scaling and compatibility with standard precision voltage references. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (4.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.85 mm), RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish (#PBF). Exposed pad not present in MSOP variant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CHAIN (1) | Mode selector | High enables daisy-chain SPI mode (RDL/SDI becomes SDI); low enables normal bus-enable mode (RDL/SDI controls SDO tri-state). |
| VDD (2) | Analog supply | 2.5 V ±62.5 mV supply for core ADC; requires 10 µF ceramic bypass to GND for noise immunity. |
| GND (3,6,10,16) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR in high-resolution conversion. |
| IN+, IN– (4,5) | Differential analog inputs | Accept ±VREF fully differential input; modeled as 45 pF switched capacitor + 40 Ω RON during acquisition. |
| REF (7) | Reference input | 2.5 V–5.1 V external reference; decoupled with 47 µF X7R ceramic capacitor (1210 size) for stability. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7626BCPZ-RL7 | 16-bit, 10 Msps, no integrated digital filter, requires external SPI configuration; 3.3 V only OVDD. | Higher speed but lower resolution; lacks real-time averaging and DGC - suited for bandwidth-limited, high-throughput applications. | Select when >2 Msps sampling is required and 16-bit resolution suffices; avoid if 24-bit integrity or 50/60 Hz rejection is mandatory. |
| ADS127L11IPWR | 24-bit delta-sigma ADC, 400 kSPS max, integrated PGA, 1.8 V–3.6 V supply only; no daisy-chain mode. | Lower power (15 mW) but slower; superior 1/f noise performance below 100 Hz - optimized for DC/low-frequency sensor interfaces. | Select for ultra-low-power, low-bandwidth (<200 kHz) applications where oversampling and digital filtering replace external anti-aliasing. |
Compared with AD7626BCPZ-RL7 and ADS127L11IPWR, the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF uniquely combines 24-bit no-missing-codes resolution, 2 Msps throughput, integrated real-time averaging, and daisy-chain capability - making it optimal for multi-channel, medium-to-high-frequency precision acquisition where both speed and depth matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF?
The LTC2380CMS-24#PBF supports a maximum sampling frequency of 2 Msps when the number of averages (N) is ≥4. At N = 1, the maximum rate is 1.5 Msps. This dual-rate capability allows system designers to trade off speed for enhanced dynamic range - for example, selecting 1.5 Msps for full 101 dB SNR or 2 Msps for higher throughput with slightly reduced noise floor. The conversion time is fixed at 343–392 ns regardless of averaging setting.
Does the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF require external configuration registers or SPI commands to enable its digital averaging filter?
No, the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF does not require external configuration registers or SPI commands to enable its digital averaging filter. Averaging is controlled solely by the number of samples (N = 1 to 65,536) selected via hardware timing - specifically, the interval between consecutive CNV pulses. The filter operates transparently in real time, with no software overhead or register writes needed. This simplifies firmware design and eliminates configuration errors that could compromise measurement integrity in the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF.
How does the REF/DGC pin affect the full-scale range of the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF?
The REF/DGC pin on the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF determines the full-scale definition: when tied to REF, digital gain compression is disabled and full-scale equals ±VREF; when tied to GND, DGC is enabled and full-scale equals ±0.8×VREF (i.e., inputs spanning 10–90% of the ±VREF range map to full digital scale). This feature allows the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF to maintain 24-bit resolution while accommodating AC-coupled or clipped input signals without external attenuation or gain stages.
What package type and pin count does the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF use?
The LTC2380CMS-24#PBF uses a 16-lead plastic MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) with dimensions 4.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.85 mm and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (#PBF). It has four ground pins (pins 3, 6, 10, 16) to minimize ground impedance and improve noise immunity. Unlike the DFN variant, the MSOP version does not include an exposed thermal pad. The pinout is fully documented in the LTC2380-24 datasheet and matches the functional block diagram for the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF.
Can the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF operate with different I/O voltage levels, and how is this configured?
Yes, the LTC2380CMS-24#PBF supports 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic levels on its digital interface via the OVDD supply pin (pin 15), which accepts 1.71 V to 5.25 V. Logic thresholds (VIH/VIL) scale proportionally to OVDD (e.g., VIH = 0.8 × OVDD). This allows direct interfacing with diverse host processors and FPGAs without level shifters. The LTC2380CMS-24#PBF's SCK, SDO, RDL/SDI, BUSY, CNV, and CHAIN pins all reference OVDD, ensuring robust signal integrity across mixed-voltage systems.
