3 Description

The ADS7066 is a small, 16-bit, 8-channel, highprecision

successive-approximation register (SAR)

analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADS7066 has

an integrated capless reference and a reference

buffer that helps reduce the overall solution size

by requiring fewer external components. The device

family includes the ADS7067 (800 kSPS) and the

ADS7066 (250 kSPS) speed variants.

The ADS7066 features built-in offset calibration for

improved accuracy over wide operating conditions

of the system. The programmable averaging filters

enable higher resolution measurement. The eight

channels of the ADS7066 can be individually

configured as analog inputs, digital inputs, or digital

outputs that simplify circuit design for mixed signal

feedback and digital control.

The enhanced-SPI enables the ADS7066 in achieving

high throughput at lower clock speeds, thereby

simplifying the board layout and lowering system cost.

The ADS7066 features a cyclic redundancy check

(CRC) for data read and write operations and the

power-up configuration.
