Product details
Overview
LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 5 Msps successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with serial LVDS interface, ±0.5 LSB INL (max), 93.8 dB SNR at 1 MHz input, and 78 mW power dissipation - designed for high-speed imaging, instrumentation, and control-loop applications requiring no pipeline latency.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF pinout, LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF application, or LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include differential ±4.096 V input range, internal 2.048 V reference with ±20 ppm/°C drift, 32-pin 5 mm × 5 mm QFN package, and support for one-lane/two-lane LVDS output modes.
Technical Context
The LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF implements a true SAR architecture with no pipeline delay, enabling deterministic timing for closed-loop control. Its acquisition phase uses switched-capacitor sampling with 18 pF sample capacitance and 28 Ω switch on-resistance, followed by binary-weighted charge redistribution against VREFBUF/2n.
Digital interface operates via LVDS: CLK+/CLK– accepts external sampling clock; DCO+/- echoes clock for data capture; DA+/- outputs 16-bit two's complement data in one-lane (16 clocks) or two-lane (8 clocks) mode; TWOLANES pin configures lane count; PD enables 10 μW power-down state.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit - guarantees full-scale quantization into 65,536 discrete levels with no missing codes. |
| Sampling Rate | 5 Msps - supports Nyquist input bandwidth up to 2.5 MHz without aliasing. |
| INL (Max) | ±0.5 LSB - ensures monotonicity and <0.008% full-scale linearity error over temperature. |
| SNR (Typ) | 93.8 dB at fIN = 1 MHz - corresponds to effective resolution of ~15.3 bits for high-fidelity signal capture. |
| Power Dissipation | 78 mW at 5 Msps - enables high-speed operation within thermal limits of compact PCB layouts. |
| Reference | Internal 2.048 V ±0.25% initial accuracy, ±20 ppm/°C max drift - eliminates need for external precision reference in many applications. |
| Differential Input Range | ±4.096 V - supports direct interfacing with industrial ±10 V or ±5 V signal chains via appropriate scaling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-lead (5 mm × 5 mm) plastic QFN (UH), exposed pad (Pin 33) must be soldered to PCB ground plane. Thermal resistance θJA = 34°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 4, 10, 21, 26, 29) | Ground reference | Multiple low-inductance connections required to solid ground plane; critical for noise immunity and thermal conduction. |
| IN+, IN– (Pins 2, 3) | Differential analog inputs | Accept fully differential ±4.096 V swing centered at VCM = 2.048 V; require matched layout and 180° phase drive. |
| REFGND (Pins 5, 6) | Reference ground return | Must be shorted together and connected directly to exposed pad; separates reference current path from digital/analog GND. |
| REFBUF (Pins 7, 8) | 2× buffered reference output | Provides 4.096 V (nominal); bypassed with 10 µF X7R capacitor to REFGND; disable by tying REFIN to GND. |
| REFIN (Pin 9) | Internal reference output / external reference input | Outputs 2.048 V (nominal); accepts external 2.048 V reference for improved accuracy; bypass with ≥0.1 µF to GND. |
| VDD (Pins 11, 12) | 5 V analog supply | 4.75–5.25 V range; requires 0.1 µF + 10 µF ceramic decoupling per pin to minimize supply noise coupling. |
| PD (Pin 13) | Power-down enable | Active-low; reduces total supply current to 10 µW when asserted; OVDD-referenced logic level. |
| TESTPAT (Pin 14) | LVDS test pattern enable | High forces fixed LVDS output pattern for interface validation; low enables normal ADC data output. |
| DA+/DA–, DB+/DB– (Pins 15–18) | LVDS serial data outputs | DA+/DA– always active; DB+/DB– enabled only in two-lane mode (TWOLANES = high); each pair drives 100 Ω differential load. |
| DCO+/DCO– (Pins 19, 20) | LVDS data clock output | Echoes CLK+/CLK– with minimal skew; used to latch DA/DB data at receiver; 247–454 mV differential swing. |
| OVDD (Pin 22) | 2.5 V LVDS output supply | 2.375–2.625 V range; powers LVDS drivers; bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND. |
| CLK+/CLK– (Pins 23, 24) | LVDS sampling clock input | Differential 5 MHz clock input; 175–650 mV differential swing; common-mode range 0.8–1.7 V. |
| TWOLANES (Pin 25) | Output lane configuration | High enables two-lane mode (8-bit parallel LVDS words); low selects one-lane (16-bit serial); VDDL-referenced logic. |
| CNV+/CNV– (Pins 27, 28) | Differential conversion start | Rising edge on CNV+ initiates sample-to-hold transition; supports single-ended drive (CNV– tied to GND). |
| VDDL (Pins 30, 31) | 2.5 V digital/logic supply | 2.375–2.625 V range; powers control logic and LVDS receivers; requires 0.1 µF + 10 µF decoupling. |
| VCM (Pin 32) | Common-mode output | Provides 2.048 V bias for IN+/IN–; optional - bypass with 0.1 µF if used; parasitic capacitance <10 pF acceptable if unused. |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 33) | Thermal & electrical ground | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane using multiple thermal vias; primary path for heat dissipation and low-impedance GND return. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8860IRGET | 16-bit, 1 Msps, SPI interface, 1.8 V supply, no internal reference - requires external REF and level-shifting for LVDS compatibility. | Lower throughput and no LVDS limit suitability for high-channel-count, lower-bandwidth ATE or portable instrumentation. | Select when system-level power budget (<25 mW) or small-outline packaging (20-pin VQFN) outweighs speed and interface requirements. |
| AD7960BCPZ | 18-bit, 5 Msps, LVDS interface, ±0.75 LSB INL (max), 2.5 V supply only, no internal reference - requires external 2.048 V REF and 2.5 V OVDD/VDDL. | Higher resolution but looser linearity and no integrated reference increase BOM count and layout complexity for precision applications. | Select when 18-bit resolution is mandatory and external reference design rigor can be applied to meet INL/SFDR targets. |
Compared with ADS8860IRGET and AD7960BCPZ, the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF uniquely combines 5 Msps throughput, integrated 2.048 V reference, ±0.5 LSB INL, and LVDS interface in a single 5 mm × 5 mm QFN - reducing system-level design effort for time-critical, medium-resolution applications.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF?
The LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C (Industrial grade), as confirmed by its "I" temperature suffix and Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This range is validated across all specified electrical characteristics including INL, SNR, and reference drift.
Does the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF require an external reference?
No - the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF includes an internal 2.048 V reference with ±20 ppm/°C max drift and a 2× gain buffer outputting 4.096 V. An external reference may be applied to REFIN only if higher initial accuracy or lower drift is required; otherwise, the internal reference is fully functional.
How does the LVDS interface of the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF operate in one-lane versus two-lane mode?
In one-lane mode (TWOLANES = low), the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF outputs all 16 bits sequentially on DA+/DA– over 16 LVDS clock cycles. In two-lane mode (TWOLANES = high), it outputs two bits per cycle - MSBs on DA+/DA– and LSBs on DB+/DB– - completing transmission in 8 cycles, halving interface timing constraints.
What is the power consumption of the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF during active and power-down operation?
The LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF draws 78 mW at 5 Msps (3 mA @ 5 V, 17.1 mA @ 2.5 V, 8.1 mA @ 2.5 V). In power-down mode (PD = low), total current drops to 10 μW - achieved by disabling all analog circuitry, reference buffer, and LVDS drivers while retaining register state.
Can the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF accept single-ended analog inputs?
No - the LTC2385IUH-16#TRPBF is strictly a fully differential input ADC. IN+ and IN– must be driven 180° out-of-phase with common-mode voltage centered at VCM = 2.048 V. Single-ended sources require external differential driver amplifiers to meet input range (±4.096 V) and CMRR requirements.
