GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7940¹ is a 14-bit, fast, low power, successive approxima-
tion ADC. The part operates from a single 2.50 V to 5.5 V power
supply and features throughput rates up to 100 kSPS. The part
contains a low noise, wide bandwidth track-and-hold amplifier
that can handle input frequencies in excess of 7 MHz.
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled
using CS and the serial clock, allowing the devices to interface
with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on
the falling edge of CS and the conversion is also initiated at this
point. There are no pipelined delays associated with the part.
The AD7940 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very
low power dissipation at fast throughput rates. The reference for
the part is taken internally from VDD, which allows the widest
dynamic input range to the ADC. Thus, the analog input range
for this part is 0 V to VDD. The conversion rate is determined by
the SCLK frequency.

This part features a standard successive approximation ADC
with accurate control of the sampling instant via a CS input and
once off conversion control.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. First 14-bit ADC in a SOT-23 package.
2. High throughput with low power consumption.
3. Flexible power/serial clock speed management. The con-
version rate is determined by the serial clock, allowing the
conversion time to be reduced through the serial clock
speed increase. This allows the average power consumption
to be reduced when a power-down mode is used while not
converting. The part also features a shutdown mode to
maximize power efficiency at lower throughput rates.
Power consumption is 0.5 µA max when in shutdown.
4. Reference derived from the power supply.
5. No pipeline delay.
