Analog Devices AD7903 Product Info

The AD7903 is a dual 16-bit, successive approximation, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that operates from a single power supply, VDDx, per ADC. It contains two low power, high speed, 16-bit sampling ADCs and a versatile serial interface port. On the CNVx rising edge, the AD7903 samples the voltage difference between the INx+ and INx− pins. The voltages on these pins usually swing in opposite phases between 0 V and V_REF. The externally applied reference voltage of the REFx pins (V_REF) can be set independently from the supply voltage pins, VDDx. The power of the device scales linearly with throughput.

Using the SDIx inputs, the SPI-compatible serial interface can also daisy-chain multiple ADCs on a single 3-wire bus and provide an optional busy indicator. It is compatible with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, or 5 V logic, using the separate VIOx supplies.

The AD7903 is available in a 20-lead QSOP package with operation specified from −40°C to +125°C.
