GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 are respectively, 8-bit, 10-bit,
and 12-bit, high speed, low power, 4-channel, successive-approxi-
mation 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/hold amplifier that
can handle input frequencies in excess of 8 MHz.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. High Throughput with Low Power Consumption.
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled
using CS and the serial clock signal, allowing the device to
easily interface with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal
is sampled on the falling edge of CS and conversion is also
initiated at this point. There are no pipeline delays associated
with the part.
The AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 offer up to 1 MSPS through-
put rates. At the maximum throughput rate with 3 V sup`plies,
the AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 dissipate just 6 mW of
power maximum.
2. Four Single-Ended Inputs with a Channel Sequencer.
A consecutive sequence of channels can be selected, through
which the ADC will cycle and convert on.
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.
3. Single-Supply Operation with VDRIVE Function.
The AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 operate from a single 2.7 V
to 5.25 V supply. The VDRIVE function allows the serial inter-
face to connect directly to either 3 V or 5 V processor systems
Through the configuration of the Control Register, the analog
input range for the part can be selected as 0 V to REFIN or 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
preprogrammed selection of channels to be converted sequentially.
independent of VDD
.
4. Flexible Power/Serial Clock Speed Management.
The conversion rate is determined by the serial clock, allowing
the conversion time to be reduced through the serial clock speed
increase. The parts also feature various shutdown modes to
maximize power efficiency at lower throughput rates. Current
consumption is 0.5 µA max when in full shutdown.
The conversion time for the AD7904/AD7914/AD7924 is deter-
mined by the SCLK frequency, as this is also used as the master
clock to control the conversion.
5. No Pipeline Delay.
The parts feature a standard successive-approximation ADC
with accurate control of the sampling instant via a CS input
and once off conversion control.
