AD7904 Series

The AD7904 /AD7914/AD7924are, respectively, 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit, high speed, low power, 4-channel successive approximation ADCs. The parts operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply and feature throughput rates up to 1 MSPS. The parts contain a low noise, wide bandwidth track-and-hold amplifier that can handle input frequencies in excess of 8 MHz.The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled usingCSand the serial clock signal, allowing the device to easily inter-face with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the falling edge ofCSand conversion is also initiated at this point. There are no pipeline delays associated with the part.The AD7904 / AD7914 / AD7924 use advanced design techniques to achieve very low power dissipation at maximum throughput rates. At maximum throughput rates, the AD7904 / AD7914 / AD7924 consume 2 mA maximum with 3 V supplies; with 5 V supplies, the current consumption is 2.7 mA maximum.Through the configuration of the control register, the analog input range for the part can be selected as 0 V to REFINor 0 V to 2 × REFIN, with either straight binary or twos complement output coding. The AD7904 / AD7914 / AD7924 each feature four single-ended analog inputs with a channel sequencer to allow a pre-programmed selection of channels to be converted sequentially.The conversion time for the AD7904 / AD7914 / AD7924 is determined by the SCLK frequency, which is also used as the master clock to control the conversion.PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTSHigh Throughput with Low Power Consumption.The AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 offer throughput rates up to 1 MSPS. At the maximum throughput rate with 3 V supplies, the AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 dissipate only 6 mW of power maximum.Four Single-Ended Inputs with Channel Sequencer.A consecutive sequence of channels can be selected, through which the ADC will cycle and convert on.Single-Supply Operation with VDRIVEFunction.The AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply. The VDRIVEfunction allows the serial interface to connect directly to 3 V or 5 V processor systems, independent of VDD.Flexible Power/Serial Clock Speed Management.The conversion rate is determined by the serial clock, allowing the conversion time to be reduced by increasing the serial clock speed. The parts also feature two shutdown modes to maximize power efficiency at lower throughput rates. Current consumption is 0.5 µA maximum when in full shutdown.No Pipeline Delay.The parts feature a standard successive approximation ADC with accurate control of the sampling instant via theCSinput and once-off conversion control.
