DESCRIPTION

The ADS7842 is a complete, 4-channel, 12-bit Analog-to-

Digital Converter (ADC). It contains a 12-bit, capacitorbased,

Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC with

a sample-and-hold amplifier, interface for microprocessor

use, and parallel, 3-state output drivers. The ADS7842 is

specified at a 200kHz sampling rate while dissipating only

2mW of power. The reference voltage can be varied from

100mV to VCC with a corresponding LSB resolution from

24μV to 1.22mV. The ADS7842 is tested down to 2.7V

operation.

Low power, high speed, and an onboard multiplexer make

the ADS7842 ideal for battery-operated systems such as

portable, multi-channel dataloggers and measurement equipment.

The ADS7842 is available in an SSOP-28 package

and is tested over the –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
