Product details
Overview
TLV2543CDBR from Texas Instruments is a 12-bit successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with serial interface, 11-channel analog multiplexer, and on-chip sample-and-hold. It delivers 10-µs conversion time, ±1 LSB linearity error, and operates from 0°C to 70°C. Used in industrial sensor interfaces and data acquisition systems requiring precise ratiometric measurement against external reference voltages.
For engineers reviewing the TLV2543CDBR datasheet, TLV2543CDBR pinout, TLV2543CDBR application, or TLV2543CDBR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 11 analog inputs, programmable 8/12/16-bit output length, unipolar/bipolar format support, EOC signaling, and CMOS-compatible serial control via CS/I/O CLOCK/DATA INPUT.
Technical Context
The TLV2543CDBR implements a switched-capacitor SAR architecture with an internal 14-channel multiplexer selecting among 11 external analog inputs or three self-test reference voltages. Sampling begins on the fourth falling edge of I/O CLOCK and completes on the final falling edge-timing synchronized to externally supplied clock cycles (8, 12, or 16).
Its control logic accepts an 8-bit input register configuring channel address (D7–D4), data length (D3–D2), MSB/LSB-first output (D1), and unipolar/bipolar format (D0). The end-of-conversion (EOC) signal transitions low after the last I/O CLOCK falling edge and returns high once the 12-bit result is latched into the output register.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit SAR - delivers 1 LSB = VREF/4096 quantization step for precision measurement. |
| Conversion Time | 10 µs over full temperature range - enables ≥100 kSPS throughput in continuous operation. |
| Analog Inputs | 11 single-ended channels (AIN0–AIN10) - supports multi-sensor monitoring without external MUX. |
| Linearity Error | ±1 LSB max - ensures monotonicity and <0.025% full-scale error for calibration-sensitive applications. |
| Reference Inputs | Differential REF+/REF− - enables ratiometric conversion, isolating analog section from supply noise. |
| Output Format | Programmable unipolar (unsigned binary) or bipolar (2's complement) - matches host processor data alignment needs. |
| Power-Down Current | ≤25 µA - reduces system power during idle intervals while retaining configuration state. |
Pinout & Package
TLV2543CDBR is housed in a 20-pin SSOP (DB) package with 0.65 mm pitch, optimized for compact PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN0–AIN10 | Analog input | 11 multiplexed single-ended inputs; source impedance ≤50 Ω required for 4.1-MHz I/O CLOCK operation. |
| CS | Digital input | Chip select resets internal logic; enables DATA OUT, DATA INPUT, and I/O CLOCK when low. |
| DATA INPUT | Digital input | Serial 8-bit address/control word (MSB first) defining channel, data length, format, and test mode. |
| DATA OUT | Digital output | 3-state serial output; driven only when CS is low; outputs previous conversion result bit-by-bit. |
| EOC | Digital output | End-of-conversion flag; goes low after final I/O CLOCK falling edge and high when result is latched. |
| I/O CLOCK | Digital input | Master serial clock; controls data shift-in, sampling timing, and data shift-out synchronization. |
| REF+, REF− | Analog input | Differential reference terminals; define full-scale (VREF+ − VREF−) and zero-scale points. |
| VCC, GND | Power | Single 2.7–5.5 V supply; GND serves as analog/digital reference return for internal circuitry. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip 14-channel analog multiplexer | Selects among 11 external analog inputs or 3 internal self-test voltages (VREF+, VREF−, (VREF+−VREF−)/2) without external components. |
| Programmable output data length | 8-, 12-, or 16-bit transfers - enables compatibility with 8-bit microcontrollers, 12-bit precision, or 16-bit serial interfaces. |
| Automatic sample-and-hold | Sampling starts on fourth I/O CLOCK falling edge and holds on final falling edge - eliminates need for external S/H circuitry. |
| Self-test modes | Three factory-trimmed internal reference voltages - allow in-system verification of ADC functionality without external stimuli. |
| CMOS-compatible serial interface | 3-wire control (CS, I/O CLOCK, DATA INPUT) + DATA OUT + EOC - simplifies isolation and reduces GPIO count on host MCU. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit serial ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, SPI interface, no internal MUX, 2.7–5.25 V supply | Limited to lower-precision applications; lacks 11-channel MUX and self-test modes | Choose when 8-bit resolution suffices and board space is constrained - smaller SO-8 package. |
| TLV2548CDW | Same 12-bit SAR core but 28-pin SOIC (DW) package; adds internal 2.5-V reference and FIFO buffer | Supports higher channel count (8 external + 4 internal) and buffered serial output | Prefer when system requires integrated reference stability or burst-mode data capture - not pin-compatible with TLV2543CDBR. |
Compared with ADS7822U and TLV2548CDW, the TLV2543CDBR uniquely balances 11-channel integration, self-test capability, and SSOP packaging for cost-sensitive industrial DAQ - offering the only option with verified 10-µs conversion and ±1 LSB linearity in this footprint.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the TLV2543CDBR?
The TLV2543CDBR is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C - designated by the "C" suffix in the part number. This commercial-grade rating makes it suitable for indoor industrial controls, test equipment, and consumer-grade data acquisition where ambient conditions remain within this envelope. The TLV2543CDBR does not support extended temperature ranges like the TLV2543I (–40°C to 85°C).
Does the TLV2543CDBR require an external sample-and-hold circuit?
No, the TLV2543CDBR integrates an inherent sample-and-hold function that activates automatically during the I/O cycle. Sampling begins on the fourth falling edge of I/O CLOCK and concludes on the final falling edge - eliminating the need for external S/H components. This feature reduces system cost, board area, and design complexity while ensuring timing coherence between sampling and conversion phases.
How many analog input channels does the TLV2543CDBR support?
The TLV2543CDBR supports 11 single-ended analog input channels (AIN0 through AIN10), managed by an on-chip 14-channel analog multiplexer. Three additional multiplexer positions are reserved for internal self-test voltages (VREF+, VREF−, and their midpoint), enabling in-system diagnostics without external signal sources. Channel selection is controlled via the 4-bit address field in the 8-bit input register.
Can the TLV2543CDBR operate with different output data lengths?
Yes, the TLV2543CDBR supports programmable output data lengths of 8, 12, or 16 bits via bits D3 and D2 in the input register. In 8-bit mode, the four LSBs are truncated; in 16-bit mode, four zero pad bits are appended. The selected length determines the I/O CLOCK cycle duration (8, 12, or 16 edges) and affects synchronization - the device requires exact clock counts to maintain data integrity across conversions.
What is the purpose of the EOC pin on the TLV2543CDBR?
The EOC (End-of-Conversion) pin on the TLV2543CDBR provides a hardware handshake signal indicating conversion status. It transitions low after the final I/O CLOCK falling edge and returns high once the 12-bit result is latched into the output register. Host processors use EOC to trigger data reads or manage interrupt-driven sampling - ensuring accurate timing without polling or fixed delays. EOC also enables synchronous multi-device coordination when sharing a serial bus.
