3 Description

The ADS8664 and ADS8668 are 4- and 8-channel, integrated data acquisition systems based on a 12-bit

successive approximation (SAR) analog-to-digital

converter (ADC), operating at a throughput of

500 kSPS. The devices feature integrated analog front-end circuitry for each input channel with

overvoltage protection up to ±20 V, a 4- or 8-channel

multiplexer with automatic and manual scanning

modes, and an on-chip, 4.096-V reference with low

temperature drift. Operating on a single 5-V analog

supply, each input channel on the devices can

support true bipolar input ranges of ±10.24 V,

±5.12 V, ±2.56 V, ±1.28V and ±0.64V, as well as

unipolar input ranges of 0 V to 10.24 V, 0 V to 5.12 V, 0 V to 2.56 V and 0 V to 1.28 V. The gain of the

analog front-end for all input ranges is accurately

trimmed to ensure a high dc precision. The input

range selection is software-programmable and independent for each channel. The devices offer a

1-MΩ constant resistive input impedance irrespective

of the selected input range.

The ADS8664 and ADS8668 offer a simple SPIcompatible

serial interface to the digital host and also

support daisy-chaining of multiple devices. The digital

supply operates from 1.65 V to 5.25 V, enabling

direct interface to a wide range of host controllers.
