T he AD7880 is a high speed, low power, 12-bit A/D converter
which operates from a single +5 V supply. It consists of a 3 µs
track/hold amplifier, a 12 µs successive-approximation ADC,
versatile interface logic and a multiple-input-range circuit. T he
part also includes a power save feature.
1. Fast Conversion T ime.
12 µs conversion time and 3 µs acquisition time allow for
large input signal bandwidth. T his performance is ideally
suited for applications in areas such as telecommunications,
audio, sonar and radar signal processing.
An internal resistor network allows the part to accept both uni-
polar and bipolar input signals while operating from a single
+5 V supply. Fast bus access times and standard control inputs
ensure easy interfacing to modern microprocessors and digital
signal processors.
2. Low Power Consumption.
2 mW power consumption in the power-down mode makes
the part ideally suited for portable, hand held, battery pow-
ered applications.
3. Multiple Input Ranges.
T he AD7880 features a total throughput time of 15 µs and can
convert full power signals up to 33 kHz with a sampling fre-
quency of 66 kHz.
T he part features three user-determined input ranges, 0 V to
+5 V, 0 V to 10 V and ±5 V. T hese unipolar and bipolar
ranges are achieved with a 5 V only power supply.
In addition to the traditional dc accuracy specifications such as
linearity, full-scale and offset errors, the AD7880 is also fully
specified for dynamic performance parameters including har-
monic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio.
T he AD7880 is fabricated in Analog Devices’ Linear Compat-
ible CMOS (LC2MOS) process, a mixed technology process
that combines precision bipolar circuits with low power CMOS
logic. T he part is available in a 24-pin, 0.3 inch-wide, plastic or
hermetic dual-in-line package (DIP) as well as a small 24-lead
SOIC package.
