Functional Block Diagram
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7291 is a 12-bit, high speed, low power, 8-channel,
successive approximation ADC with an internal temperature
sensor. The part operates from a single 3.3V power supply and
features an I2C®-compatible interface. The track-and-hold
amplifier which can handle input frequencies of up to 70MHz,
and a multiplexer allows samples from eight channels.
Each AD7291 provides a 2-wire serial interface compatible with
I2C interfaces. The AD7291 offers a programmable sequencer,
which enables the selection of a pre-programmable sequence of
channels for conversion. The device has an on-chip 2.5 V
reference that can be disabled to allow the use of an external
reference.
The AD7291 includes a high accuracy band-gap temperature
sensor, which is monitored and digitized by the12-bit ADC to
give a resolution of 0.25°C. The AD7291 uses advanced design
techniques to achieve very low power dissipation at high
throughput rates. The part also offers flexible
power/throughput rate management options and is offered in a
20 lead LFCSP package
