Product details
Overview
LTC2382CMS-16#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 500 ksps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with fully differential ±2.5 V input range, 92 dB SNR at 20 kHz, ±2 LSB INL max, and 6.5 mW power consumption at full throughput. It operates from a single 2.5 V supply (VDD), supports 1.8 V–5 V I/O logic (OVDD), and targets high-speed precision data acquisition in compact, low-power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF datasheet, LTC2382CMS-16#PBF pinout, LTC2382CMS-16#PBF application, or LTC2382CMS-16#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include guaranteed 16-bit no-missing-codes operation, extended 1.25 µs acquisition time enabling ultra-low-power driver usage, daisy-chain SPI interface compatibility, internal conversion clock, and operation up to 70°C in the MSOP-16 package.
Technical Context
The LTC2382CMS-16#PBF implements a proprietary sampling architecture that allows acquisition of the next sample during the current conversion cycle, eliminating pipeline delay and achieving zero cycle latency. Its internal oscillator governs conversion timing, removing external clock dependencies and simplifying system synchronization.
It features a high-impedance, fully differential analog front-end with 45 pF input capacitance in sample mode and 5 pF in hold mode, coupled with 40 Ω switch on-resistance. The 2's complement serial output is SPI-compatible and supports both normal bus-enable mode (via RDL/SDI) and daisy-chain mode (via CHAIN pin high), with SDO active only when enabled.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - guarantees monotonic transfer function and full 65,536-code dynamic range without missing codes. |
| Sampling Rate | 500 ksps - enables real-time capture of signals up to 250 kHz Nyquist bandwidth with no throughput penalty. |
| SNR | 92 dB (typ, fIN = 20 kHz) - supports >15-bit effective resolution for high-fidelity signal digitization. |
| INL | ±2 LSB (max) - ensures accurate amplitude linearity across full input range, critical for calibration-sensitive applications. |
| Power Dissipation | 6.5 mW at 500 ksps - enables battery-powered or thermally constrained designs without forced cooling. |
| Acquisition Time | 1.25 µs - permits use of low-power, low-bandwidth ADC drivers (e.g., LT6350), reducing system BOM cost and power. |
| Reference Input | External 2.5 V (2.4 V–2.6 V) - decoupled via 47 µF X5R ceramic capacitor; supports precision scaling and temperature-stable full-scale definition. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - validated performance across commercial temperature range with no derating required. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (4 mm × 5 mm), exposed pad not present (MSOP variant). Pin 17 ground pad applies only to DFN package; this part uses MSOP.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CHAIN (1) | Mode control input | Low = Normal mode (RDL/SDI = bus enable); High = Daisy-chain mode (RDL/SDI = serial data input). |
| VDD (2) | Digital core supply | 2.5 V ±5% supply for internal logic and SAR core; requires 10 µF ceramic bypass to GND. |
| GND (3,6,10,16) | Analog/digital ground | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR; must be connected to common low-impedance ground plane. |
| IN+, IN– (4,5) | Differential analog inputs | Accept ±2.5 V fully differential input; 45 pF sample-mode capacitance demands low-impedance drive or buffered interface. |
| REF (7,8) | Reference voltage input | 2.4 V–2.6 V external reference; draws up to 495 µA at 500 ksps; requires 47 µF X5R ceramic capacitor directly at pin. |
| CNV (9) | Convert trigger input | Rising-edge initiated conversion; auto power-down occurs while CNV remains high, reducing idle power. |
| BUSY (11) | Conversion status indicator | Active-high open-drain output signaling conversion in progress; used for timing handshaking or interrupt generation. |
| RDL/SDI (12) | Serial interface control/data input | In Normal mode: controls SDO tri-state; in Chain mode: accepts serial data from upstream ADC in daisy chain. |
| SCK (13) | Serial clock input | Accepts up to 100 MHz clock (10 ns period); rising edge clocks out MSB-first 2's complement data on SDO. |
| SDO (14) | Serial data output | Tri-state output enabled by RDL/SDI low (Normal) or automatically in Chain mode; outputs conversion result or daisy-chain data. |
| OVDD (15) | I/O interface supply | 1.71 V–5.25 V logic supply; sets VIH/VIL thresholds and drives SDO/SCK/RDL levels; bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No pipeline delay / zero cycle latency | Enables deterministic real-time sampling for closed-loop control and burst-mode acquisition without output buffering. |
| Extended 1.25 µs acquisition window | Reduces required driver bandwidth and slew rate, allowing use of lower-power, lower-cost op-amps like LT6350. |
| Internal conversion clock | Eliminates need for external timing circuitry or master clock distribution, simplifying PCB layout and reducing jitter sensitivity. |
| Auto power-down between conversions | Reduces average power proportionally to sampling rate-e.g., drops to 13 µW at 1 ksps-ideal for intermittent sensing. |
| SPI-compatible daisy-chain mode | Supports multi-ADC synchronization with single SCK and CNV lines, minimizing microcontroller GPIO and routing complexity. |
| Guaranteed operation to 125°C (H-grade variants) | While LTC2382CMS-16#PBF is rated 0°C–70°C, same-pinout H-grade version (LTC2382HMS-16#PBF) enables drop-in thermal upgrade. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7960BCPZ-RL7 | 18-bit, 5 MSPS, 2.5 V supply, ±2.5 V input, but requires external reference and separate VIO supply; higher power (34 mW). | Targets higher-resolution, higher-throughput applications where SNR > 95 dB and speed > 1 MSPS are mandatory. | Select AD7960BCPZ-RL7 only when 18-bit resolution and 5 MSPS are required; LTC2382CMS-16#PBF offers better power efficiency and simpler supply scheme. |
| LTC2378IMS-18#PBF | 18-bit, 1 MSPS, same MSOP-16 package, 2.5 V supply, ±2.5 V input, 95.5 dB SNR, but consumes 15 mW at full speed. | Designed for applications needing higher resolution than 16 bits without sacrificing DC accuracy or THD performance. | Choose LTC2378IMS-18#PBF when 18-bit resolution is essential; LTC2382CMS-16#PBF provides optimal balance of speed, power, and cost for 16-bit systems. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF?
The LTC2382CMS-16#PBF supports a guaranteed maximum sampling rate of 500 ksps across its full operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C). This rate is maintained with full 16-bit accuracy, ±2 LSB INL, and 92 dB SNR at 20 kHz input frequency. The internal oscillator ensures consistent timing without external clock dependency, and the device exhibits no cycle latency-even at maximum throughput.
Does the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF require an external reference, and what are the requirements?
Yes, the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF requires an external precision reference applied to its REF pins (7 and 8). The specified range is 2.4 V to 2.6 V, with typical operation at 2.5 V. It draws up to 495 µA DC load at 500 ksps, necessitating a low-noise, low-drift reference such as the LTC6652-2.5, decoupled with a 47 µF X5R ceramic capacitor placed directly at the REF pin.
How does the daisy-chain mode work on the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF?
Daisy-chain mode is enabled by driving the CHAIN pin (1) high. In this mode, the RDL/SDI pin (12) becomes a serial data input, accepting data from the SDO of a preceding ADC in the chain. The LTC2382CMS-16#PBF then shifts its own conversion result out on SDO (14) on subsequent SCK edges, enabling synchronized multi-ADC readout using a single SCK and CNV line-reducing controller resource usage and PCB routing complexity.
What is the significance of the 1.25 µs extended acquisition time in the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF?
The 1.25 µs extended acquisition time allows the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF to settle the sampled input with relaxed driver bandwidth and slew rate requirements. This enables use of lower-power, lower-cost op-amps (e.g., LT6350) instead of high-speed, high-current alternatives-reducing total system power, heat, and cost while preserving SNR and THD performance.
Is the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LTC2382 family?
Yes, the LTC2382CMS-16#PBF shares identical MSOP-16 pinout and footprint with all LTC2382-x variants (e.g., LTC2382IMS-16#PBF, LTC2382HMS-16#PBF), differing only in temperature grade and part marking. This allows direct hardware reuse across commercial, industrial, and high-temp designs-enabling one PCB layout to support multiple grades via firmware or configuration changes.
