Selection Guide

Choose the AD4851BCPZ when you need a compact, low-power, 4-channel simultaneous sampling DAS with integrated buffers and reference. It is ideal for motor control, power monitoring, and vibration analysis where phase accuracy is critical. If you prefer a BGA package, select the AD4851BBCZ, which is electrically identical. For higher speed (4MSPS), consider the AD7384-4BCPZ, but note it requires external buffers and reference. For more channels (8), the AD7606BSTZ is an option, but it has higher power dissipation and a different package. The AD4851BCPZ is recommended for new designs due to its integration and low power.

Key Differentiators

  • Integrated input buffers and reference (vs AD7384-4BCPZ)
  • Lower power dissipation (vs AD7606BSTZ)
  • Simultaneous sampling of 4 channels (vs AD7606BSTZ-4)

Design Notes

The AD4851BCPZ operates from a single 5V supply. Ensure that the AVDD pin is decoupled with a 10uF ceramic capacitor and a 0.1uF capacitor placed as close to the pin as possible. The internal supply decoupling capacitors reduce external requirements, but additional decoupling is recommended for optimal performance. The power dissipation is 36mW per channel at 250kSPS, so thermal management is generally not critical, but ensure adequate copper pour for heat dissipation.

For optimal performance, use a solid ground plane and keep analog input traces short and shielded. The differential inputs should be routed as a pair to minimize noise pickup. Place the reference decoupling capacitor close to the REF pin. The SPI interface lines should be kept away from analog inputs to avoid digital noise coupling. Follow the layout guidelines in the AD4851 datasheet for best results.

A common pitfall is exceeding the absolute maximum ratings on the analog inputs. The wide common-mode input range is specified, but do not exceed the supply rails. Also, ensure that the reference voltage is stable; if using an external reference, use a low-noise source. The SPI interface timing must meet the datasheet specifications to avoid data corruption. Finally, do not forget to connect all ground pins to the ground plane.
