Selection Guide

Choose the AD7980BRMZ when you need a 16-bit, 1 MSPS SAR ADC in a compact MSOP package with excellent linearity and low power. It is ideal for industrial, medical, and test equipment applications. If you require higher resolution, consider the AD7982BRMZ (18-bit) which is pin-compatible. For lower speed but similar performance, the AD7690BRMZ (400 kSPS) or AD7691BRMZ (250 kSPS) are alternatives. If you need a smaller footprint, the LFCSP versions (AD7980BCPZ-RL7, AD7980ACPZ-RL7) offer the same performance in a different package, but require PCB layout changes. For tape and reel packaging, use AD7980BRMZRL7.

Key Differentiators

  • Pin-for-pin compatible with 18-bit AD7982 (vs AD7982BRMZ)
  • Higher throughput than AD7690 (vs AD7690BRMZ-RL7)
  • Lower INL than AD7982 (vs AD7982BRMZ)

Design Notes

The AD7980BRMZ operates from a single VDD supply, but the reference voltage (REF) is applied externally and can be set independent of VDD. Ensure that the reference source has low output impedance and is properly decoupled with a 10 µF capacitor to maintain accuracy. The digital interface supply (VIO) should be decoupled with a 0.1 µF capacitor close to the pin.

For optimal performance, place the AD7980BRMZ close to the signal source and keep analog and digital grounds separate. Use a solid ground plane and avoid routing digital signals under the analog input pins. Decouple VDD and VIO with 0.1 µF capacitors placed as close as possible to the pins. The reference input should have a low-impedance path to the reference source.

A common pitfall is driving the analog input with a source that has insufficient settling time. The input must settle to 16-bit accuracy within the acquisition time. Use a driver amplifier with adequate bandwidth and low output impedance. Also, ensure the reference voltage is stable and noise-free, as it directly affects the full-scale accuracy.
