Communications
Data is read from the part by a 12-bit parallel data bus using the
CS RD
standard and
signals. Maximum throughput for a single
channel is 500 kSPS. For all four channels, the maximum throughput
is 130 kSPS for the read-during-conversion sequence operation.
The throughput rate for the read-after-conversion sequence
operation depends on the read cycle time of the processor. See
the Timing and Control section. The AD7864 is available in a
small (0.3 square inch area) 44-lead MQFP.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7864 is a high speed, low power, 4-channel, simulta-
neous sampling 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that
operates from a single 5 V supply. The part contains a 1.65 μs
successive approximation ADC, four track-and-hold amplifiers,
a 2.5 V reference, an on-chip clock oscillator, signal conditioning
circuitry, and a high speed parallel interface. The input signals
on four channels sample simultaneously preserving the relative
phase information of the signals on the four analog inputs. The
part accepts analog input ranges of 10 V, 5 V (AD7864-1), 0 V
to +2.5 V, 0 V to +5 V (AD7864-2), and 2.5 V (AD7864-3).
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Four track-and-hold amplifiers and a fast (1.65 μs) ADC for
simultaneous sampling and conversion of any subset of the
four channels.
2. A single 5 V supply consuming only 90 mW typical, makes
it ideal for low power and portable applications. See the
Standby Mode Operation section.
3. High speed parallel interface for easy connection to micro-
processors, microcontrollers, and digital signal processors.
4. Available in three versions with different analog input
ranges. The AD7864-1 offers the standard industrial input
ranges of 10 V and 5 V; the AD7864-3 offers the common
signal processing input range of 2.5 V; the AD7864-2 can
be used in unipolar, 0 V to 2.5 V and 0 V to 5 V,
applications.
Any subset of the four channels can be converted to maximize
the throughput rate on the selected sequence. Select the channels to
convert via hardware (channel select input pins) or software (pro-
gramming the channel select register).
CONVST
A single conversion start signal (
) simultaneously places
all the track-and-holds into hold and initiates a conversion se-
EOC
quence for the selected channels. The
signal indicates the end

of each individual conversion in the selected conversion sequence.
The BUSY signal indicates the end of the conversion sequence.
