Product details
Overview
MX7828LN+ from Maxim Integrated is an 8-bit, 8-channel high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with 2.5 µs conversion time, single +5V supply operation, built-in track/hold, and 0V to +5V analog input range. It functions as a multiplexed data acquisition front-end in real-time signal capture systems requiring fast sampling without external sample-and-hold circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the MX7828LN+ datasheet, MX7828LN+ pinout, MX7828LN+ application, or MX7828LN+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its 8-channel CMOS multiplexer architecture, open-drain RDY/INT timing interface for microprocessor WAIT-state integration, ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error, and compatibility with AD7828-based legacy designs.
Technical Context
The MX7828LN+ employs a half-flash conversion architecture with two 4-bit flash ADC sections and an internal DAC to generate the lower 4 bits from the residue voltage. Its analog input stage uses 31 comparators and exhibits 45 pF input capacitance with 0.7 V/µs slew rate in tracking mode.
Digital interface operates in Mode 0 (WAIT-state compatible) or Mode 1 (non-WAIT), controlled solely by CS and RD signals. RDY is an open-drain status output tied to processor READY/WAIT; INT asserts low upon conversion completion and resets on rising edge of CS or RD.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 8-bit - delivers 256 discrete digital codes across full-scale input range |
| Conversion Time | 2.5 µs - enables up to 400 kHz maximum aggregate sampling rate (tCRD + tP) |
| Total Unadjusted Error | ±1/2 LSB - ensures monotonicity and no missing codes over temperature |
| Analog Input Range | 0V to +5V - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic-level sensor outputs |
| Supply Voltage | +5V ±5% - eliminates need for dual or precision supplies in embedded systems |
| Input Capacitance | 45 pF - requires source impedance ≤100Ω for full 1 µs acquisition settling |
| Track/Hold | Built-in - removes external THS requirement for most DC–10 kHz signals |
Pinout & Package
MX7828LN+ is housed in a 28-pin plastic DIP package (0.600" width), pin-compatible with AD7828 and suitable for through-hole prototyping and industrial PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | AIN1–AIN8 | Eight single-ended analog input channels selected via A0–A2 address lines |
| 9 | RD | Active-low read control: initiates conversion and enables data bus access |
| 10 | CS | Active-low chip select: enables device and latches channel address |
| 11 | INT | Open-drain interrupt output: goes low at conversion completion |
| 12 | RDY | Open-drain ready output: low during conversion, high-Z when data valid |
| 13, 14 | VREF−, VREF+ | Reference span inputs: define zero-code (VREF−) and full-scale (VREF+) voltages |
| 15 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling |
| 16 | VDD | +5V power supply - requires 47 µF electrolytic + 0.1 µF ceramic bypassing |
| 17–24 | DB0–DB7 | Three-state parallel data outputs (LSB to MSB) - directly interface to 8-bit microprocessor buses |
| 25, 26, 27 | A0, A1, A2 | Channel address inputs - select one of eight analog inputs (A2 only active on MX7828) |
| 28 | TP (REF OUT) | Test point only - not connected internally; do not use as reference source |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip track/hold | Eliminates external THS IC and associated layout complexity for ≤10 kHz inputs |
| Memory-mapped or I/O-port interface | Requires no glue logic - appears as memory location or peripheral port to 8086/Z80 families |
| 2.5 µs conversion + 500 ns inter-conversion delay | Supports 400 kHz aggregate throughput - sufficient for real-time telecom and servo loop sampling |
| ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error | Guarantees monotonic transfer function and no missing codes across 0°C to +70°C range |
| Single +5V supply with no external clock | Reduces BOM count and power domain complexity in cost-sensitive embedded systems |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit, 8-channel ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7828BNZ | Same pinout, identical 2.5 µs conversion, but ±1 LSB error spec and no internal reference option | Valid drop-in replacement where ±1 LSB accuracy suffices and external reference is used | Select AD7828BNZ when sourcing from Analog Devices' long-term product roadmap is preferred |
| MAX158ACNG+ | Same die family, includes internal 2.5V reference and 2.5V REF OUT pin; otherwise identical timing and interface | Preferred where board space or BOM count reduction is critical and reference stability <100 ppm/°C is acceptable | Choose MAX158ACNG+ if eliminating external reference IC and trimming components is a system-level priority |
Compared with MX7828LN+, AD7828BNZ offers identical mechanical and timing compatibility but relaxed accuracy, while MAX158ACNG+ adds integrated reference functionality at the cost of higher quiescent current - both require validation of reference configuration and thermal drift in final layout.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for MX7828LN+?
The MX7828LN+ is specified for 0°C to +70°C operation. This commercial-grade temperature range is validated across all electrical parameters including ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error, 2.5 µs conversion time, and 45 pF input capacitance. The 'LN' suffix explicitly denotes this temperature grade, distinguishing it from 'BQ' (–40°C to +85°C) and 'TQ' (–55°C to +125°C) variants of the same MX7828 family.
Does MX7828LN+ include an internal voltage reference?
No, MX7828LN+ does not include an internal voltage reference. Unlike the MAX158, which integrates a 2.5V reference with REF OUT pin, the MX7828LN+ requires external reference inputs at VREF+ and VREF− pins to define its full-scale and zero-code points. The TP (REF OUT) pin on MX7828LN+ is a test point only and must not be connected or loaded.
Can MX7828LN+ interface directly with an 8086 microprocessor bus?
Yes, MX7828LN+ supports direct connection to an 8086 microprocessor bus using Mode 0 interface. Its three-state DB0–DB7 outputs, open-drain RDY output (for READY input), and CS/RD control scheme allow memory-mapped or I/O-port access without external address decoding logic. Timing parameters like tACC1 = 2.0 µs and tRDY = 40 ns are compliant with 8086 minimum bus cycle requirements.
What is the maximum recommended source impedance for analog inputs on MX7828LN+?
The maximum recommended source impedance for MX7828LN+ analog inputs is 100Ω. This limit ensures full 1 µs acquisition settling time given the device's 45 pF input capacitance and internal switch resistance. Exceeding 100Ω introduces settling errors that degrade the guaranteed ±1/2 LSB total unadjusted error specification, particularly at higher sampling rates or temperature extremes.
Is MX7828LN+ pin-compatible with AD7828?
Yes, MX7828LN+ is fully pin-compatible with Analog Devices' AD7828. Both devices share identical 28-pin DIP pinout, function mapping (including A0–A2, RD, CS, INT, RDY, VREF±, DB0–DB7), and electrical timing specifications such as 2.5 µs conversion time and Mode 0/Mode 1 interface behavior. This allows direct substitution in existing AD7828-based designs without PCB modification.
