Product details
Overview
MX7824KCWG+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-speed, 4-channel, 8-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with 2.5 µs conversion time, single +5V supply operation, and built-in track/hold. It features a multiplexed analog input architecture, latched three-state data outputs for direct microprocessor bus interfacing, and operates across 0°C to +70°C. It is used in real-time data acquisition systems requiring fast sampling without external sample-and-hold circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the MX7824KCWG+ datasheet, MX7824KCWG+ pinout, MX7824KCWG+ application, or MX7824KCWG+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4-channel multiplexer configuration, 8-bit resolution with ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error, Mode 0/Mode 1 digital interface flexibility, and compatibility with AD7824-based designs.
Technical Context
The MX7824KCWG+ employs a half-flash architecture using two 4-bit flash ADC sections and an internal DAC to generate the full 8-bit result in 2.5 µs. Its analog front-end includes integrated track/hold functionality, eliminating external components for many signal sources.
Digital control relies solely on CS and RD inputs, supporting two interface modes: Mode 0 (WAIT-state compatible, INT- and RDY-driven) and Mode 1 (non-WAIT, pipelined read). The device uses VREF+/VREF− inputs to define the 0V–5V input range and supports direct connection to microprocessor data buses via latched, three-state outputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8-bit - delivers 256 discrete output codes for precise digitization of analog signals within 0V–5V range. |
| Conversion Time | 2.5 µs - enables up to 400 kHz maximum sampling rate per channel, suitable for real-time signal capture. |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1/2 LSB - ensures high accuracy without calibration, critical for measurement-critical applications like telecom and servo control. |
| Analog Input Channels | 4-channel multiplexer - allows sequential sampling of four independent analog sources with single-device integration. |
| Supply Voltage | +5V only - simplifies power design by eliminating dual-supply requirements and reducing board-level complexity. |
| Reference Interface | External VREF+/VREF− pins - supports flexible reference configurations including rail-to-rail or precision external references. |
| Digital Interface | CS + RD control only - eliminates need for address decoding logic or additional timing controllers in microprocessor systems. |
Pinout & Package
MX7824KCWG+ is housed in a 24-pin Wide SO (Small Outline) package, RoHS-compliant and surface-mountable. Pin count and layout match industry-standard 24-WSOIC footprints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | AIN1–AIN4 | Analog input channels - multiplexed 4-channel inputs accepting 0V–5V signals; internally sampled via track/hold. |
| 5, 6 | A0, A1 | Multiplexer address inputs - select one of four analog channels (00=AIN1, 01=AIN2, 10=AIN3, 11=AIN4). |
| 7–14 | DB0–DB7 | Latched three-state data outputs - directly drive microprocessor data bus; high-impedance when CS or RD inactive. |
| 15 | INT | Open-drain interrupt output - goes low at conversion completion; used to trigger CPU service or synchronize data reads. |
| 16 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - common return path for analog inputs, digital logic, and reference circuitry. |
| 17 | VREF− | Reference lower bound - sets zero-code voltage; must be connected between GND and VREF+ to define input range. |
| 18 | VREF+ | Reference upper bound - sets full-scale voltage; accepts 0V to VDD (typically +5V) to configure 0V–5V input span. |
| 19 | RDY | Open-drain ready output - driven low on CS assertion, returns high-impedance at conversion end; connects to CPU WAIT input. |
| 20 | RD | Read control input - falling edge initiates conversion and/or latches data depending on interface mode (Mode 0/1). |
| 21 | CS | Chip-select input - must be low to enable device operation, address latching, and data output drivers. |
| 22 | VDD | +5V power supply - powers all analog and digital circuitry; requires 47µF + 0.1µF bypassing for stable operation. |
| 23, 24 | NC | No-connect pins - unused; must remain unconnected per datasheet guidance to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Built-in track/hold | Eliminates need for external S/H circuitry, reducing BOM cost and PCB area while maintaining 2.5 µs conversion integrity. |
| Single +5V supply | Removes requirement for ±5V or +5V/–5V supplies, enabling simpler power architecture and improved system reliability. |
| 2.5 µs conversion time | Supports 400 kHz aggregate sampling rate, sufficient for audio-band and high-speed servo loop applications. |
| Memory-mapped or I/O-port interface | Appears as memory location or peripheral port without glue logic, easing integration into 8051, Z80, or 68K-based systems. |
| Pin-compatible with AD7824 | Enables drop-in replacement in legacy Analog Devices-based designs, preserving layout and firmware compatibility. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-channel, 8-bit, high-speed ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7824BQ | Same pinout, identical 4-channel 8-bit architecture, but specified over –40°C to +85°C; ±1 LSB error (vs. ±1/2 LSB for MX7824KCWG+). | Preferred for extended temperature industrial environments; slightly relaxed accuracy tolerance acceptable in non-critical monitoring. | Select AD7824BQ when operating beyond 0°C–70°C range and ±1 LSB error is sufficient for system requirements. |
| MAX154ACNG+ | Pin-compatible 4-channel 8-bit ADC with integrated 2.5V reference; same 2.5 µs conversion time but requires no external VREF+/-. | Suitable where board space or reference sourcing is constrained; not usable if external reference control or 0V–5V scaling is required. | Choose MAX154ACNG+ when internal reference simplifies design and eliminates need for external reference components. |
Compared with AD7824BQ and MAX154ACNG+, the MX7824KCWG+ offers tighter ±1/2 LSB accuracy and commercial-temperature optimization, making it ideal for cost-sensitive, high-volume data acquisition where reference flexibility and precision outweigh extended temperature needs.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate achievable with the MX7824KCWG+?
The MX7824KCWG+ achieves a maximum sampling rate of 400 kHz, calculated from its 2.5 µs conversion time plus minimum 500 ns delay between conversions. This allows full utilization of its 4-channel multiplexer in time-division multiplexed systems, delivering up to 100 kHz per channel-well above the Nyquist rate for 10 kHz input bandwidths. The MX7824KCWG+ maintains this rate under standard +5V supply and 0°C to +70°C conditions.
Does the MX7824KCWG+ include an internal voltage reference?
No, the MX7824KCWG+ does not include an internal voltage reference. It requires external VREF+ and VREF− connections to define the analog input range (e.g., 0V to +5V). This differs from the MAX154/MAX158 family, which integrates a 2.5V reference. The MX7824KCWG+'s external reference architecture provides design flexibility for precision scaling, ratiometric measurements, or noise-reduced reference sources.
How does the MX7824KCWG+ interface with a microprocessor data bus?
The MX7824KCWG+ interfaces directly with microprocessor data buses using latched, three-state DB0–DB7 outputs and simple CS/RD control. In Mode 0, it appears as a memory-mapped peripheral; in Mode 1, as an I/O port. No address decoding logic is needed-the device responds to CS and RD edges alone. The MX7824KCWG+'s outputs drive standard TTL/CMOS loads and support direct connection to 8051, Z80, or 68000-family buses without bus transceivers.
Is the MX7824KCWG+ pin-compatible with Analog Devices AD7824?
Yes, the MX7824KCWG+ is explicitly pin-compatible with Analog Devices' AD7824 series, as confirmed in the datasheet's ordering information and pin configuration sections. Both devices share identical 24-pin SO/Wide SO footprints, matching pin functions (e.g., AIN1–AIN4, DB0–DB7, CS, RD, INT, RDY), and electrical interface behavior. This enables drop-in replacement in existing AD7824-based layouts without PCB revision.
What are the recommended power supply decoupling practices for the MX7824KCWG+?
Maxim specifies a 47 µF electrolytic capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor in parallel, placed as close as possible to the MX7824KCWG+ VDD pin with minimal lead length. This dual-capacitor network suppresses both low- and high-frequency supply noise, preventing conversion errors and reference instability. The 0.1 µF capacitor must be ceramic (not tantalum or electrolytic) to ensure effective high-frequency bypassing; longer leads degrade performance due to inductance.
