GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7863 is a high speed, low power, dual 14-bit analog-to-
digital converter that operates from a single 5 V supply.
The part contains two 5.2 μs successive approximation ADCs, two
track/hold amplifiers, an internal 2.5 V reference and a high speed
parallel interface. Four analog inputs are grouped into two channels
(A and B) selected by the A0 input. Each channel has two inputs
(VA1 and VA2 or VB1 and VB2) that can be sampled and converted
simultaneously, thus preserving the relative phase information of
the signals on both analog inputs. The part accepts an analog input
range of ±10 V (AD7863-10), ±2.5 V (AD7863-3), and 0 V to
2.5 V (AD7863-2). Overvoltage protection on the analog inputs
for the part allows the input voltage to go to ±17 V, ±7 V, or +7 V
respectively, without causing damage.
A single conversion start signal (CONVST) simultaneously places
both track/holds into hold and initiates conversion on both
channels. The BUSY signal indicates the end of conversion and at
this time the conversion results for both channels are available to be
read. The first read after a conversion accesses the result from VA1
or VB1, and the second read accesses the result from VA2 or VB2,
depending on whether the multiplexer select (A0) is low or high,
respectively. Data is read from the part via a 14-bit parallel data bus
with standard CS and RD signals. In addition to the traditional dc
accuracy specifications such as linearity, gain, and offset errors, the
part is also specified for dynamic performance parameters
including harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio.
The AD7863 is fabricated in the Analog Devices, Inc. linear
compatible CMOS (LC2MOS) process, a mixed technology

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD7863 features two complete ADC functions
allowing simultaneous sampling and conversion of two
channels. Each ADC has a two-channel input mux. The
conversion result for both channels is available 5.2 μs after
initiating conversion.
2. The AD7863 operates from a single 5 V supply and
consumes 70 mW typical. The automatic power-down
mode, where the part goes into power-down once
conversion is complete and wakes up before the next
conversion cycle, makes the AD7863 ideal for battery-
powered or portable applications.
3. The part offers a high speed parallel interface for easy
connection to microprocessors, microcontrollers, and
digital signal processors.
4. The part is offered in three versions with different analog
input ranges. The AD7863-10 offers the standard industrial
input range of ±10 V; the AD7863-3 offers the common
signal processing input range of ±2.5 V, while the AD7863-2
can be used in unipolar 0 V to 2.5 V applications.
5. The part features very tight aperture delay matching
between the two input sample and hold amplifiers.
