16-Bit No Missing Codes and ±3LSB Max INL
8-Channel Multiplexer with:
Single Ended or Differential Inputs and
Unipolar or Bipolar Conversion Modes
SPI/MICROWIRETM Serial I/O
2.7V Guaranteed Supply Voltage
Pin Compatible with LTC1863/LTC1867
True Differential Inputs
On-Chip or External Reference
Low Power: 750µA at 175ksps, 300µA at 50ksps
Sleep Mode
Automatic Nap Mode Between Conversions
16-Pin Narrow SSOP Package
The 8-channel input multiplexer can be configured for
either single-ended or differential inputs and unipolar or
bipolar conversions (or combinations thereof). The ADCs
convert 0V to 2.5V unipolar inputs or ±1.25V bipolar
inputs. The ADCs typically draw only 750µA from a single
2.7V supply. The automatic nap and sleep modes benefit
power sensitive applications.
The LTC1867L’s DC performance is outstanding with a
±3LSB INL specification and 16-bit no missing codes over
temperature.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND (unless otherwise
noted).
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below GND or above VDD, they
will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents
of greater than 100mA without latchup.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below GND, they will be
clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents of
greater than 100mA below GND without latchup. These pins are not
clamped to VDD.
Note 5: VDD = 2.7V, fSAMPLE = 175ksps and fSCK = 20MHz at 25°C,
t r = t f = 5ns and VIN – = 1.25V for bipolar mode unless otherwise specified.
Note 6: Linearity, offset and gain error specifications apply for both
unipolar and bipolar modes. The INL and DNL are tested in bipolar mode.
Note 7: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.

Note 8: Unipolar offset is the offset voltage measured from +1/2LSB
when the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and
0000 0000 0000 0001 for LTC1867L and between 0000 0000 0000 and
0000 0000 0001 for LTC1863L. Bipolar offset is the offset voltage
measured from –1/2LSB when output code flickers between 0000 0000
0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111 1111 for LTC1867L, and between
0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111 for LTC1863L.
Note 9: Recommended operating conditions. The input range of ±1.25V
for bipolar mode is measured with respect to VIN – = 1.25V. For unipolar
mode, common mode input range is 0V to VDD for the positive input and
0V to 1.5V for the negative input. For bipolar mode, common mode input
range is 0V to VDD for both positive and negative inputs.
Note 10: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 11: t2 of 47ns maximum allows fSCK up to 10MHz for rising capture
with 50% duty cycle and fSCK up to 20MHz for falling capture (with 3ns
setup time for the receiving logic).

CHO-CH7/COM (Pins 1-8): Analog Input Pins. Analog
inputs must be free of noise with respect to GND. CH7/
COM can be either a separate channel or the common
minus input for the other channels. Unused channels
should be tied to ground.
REFCOMP (Pin 9): Reference Buffer Output Pin. Bypass to
GND with 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor (2.5V Nominal). To overdrive REFCOMP,
tie VREF to GND.
VREF (Pin 10): 1.25V Reference Output. This pin can also
be used as an external reference buffer input for improved
accuracy and drift. Bypass to GND with 2.2µF tantalum
capacitor in parallel with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
SCK (Pin 12): Shift Clock. This clock synchronizes the
serial data transfer.
SDO (Pin 13): Digital Data Output. The A/D conversion
result is shifted out of this output. Straight binary format
for unipolar mode and two’s complement format for
bipolar mode.
SDI (Pin 14): Digital Data Input Pin. The A/D configuration
word is shifted into this input.
GND (Pin 15): Analog and Digital GND.
VDD (Pin 16): Analog and Digital Power Supply. Bypass to
GND with 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor.
CS/CONV (Pin 11): This input provides the dual function
of initiating conversions on the ADC and also frames the
serial data transfer.

Overview
The LTC1863L/LTC1867L are complete, low power, multiplexed ADCs. They consist of a 12-/16-bit, 175ksps capacitive successive approximation A/D converter, a precision
internal reference, a configurable 8-channel analog input
multiplexer (MUX) and a serial port for data transfer.
Conversions are started by a rising edge on the CS/CONV
input. Once a conversion cycle has begun, it cannot be
restarted. Between conversions, the ADCs receive an input
word for channel selection and output the conversion
result, and the analog input is acquired in preparation for
the next conversion. In the acquire phase, a minimum time
of 2.01µs will provide enough time for the sample-andhold capacitors to acquire the analog signal.
During the conversion, the internal differential 16-bit
capacitive DAC output is sequenced by the SAR from the
most significant bit (MSB) to the least significant bit
(LSB). The input is sucessively compared with the binary
weighted charges supplied by the differential capacitive
DAC. Bit decisions are made by a low power, differential
comparator that rejects common mode noise. At the end
of a conversion, the DAC output balances the analog input.
The SAR content (a 12-/16-bit data word) that represents
the analog input is loaded into the 12-/16-bit output
latches.

Driving the Analog Inputs
The analog inputs of the LTC1863L/LTC1867L are easy to
drive. Each of the analog inputs can be used as a singleended input relative to the GND pin (CH0-GND, CH1-GND,
etc) or in pairs (CH0 and CH1, CH2 and CH3, CH4 and CH5,
CH6 and CH7) for differential inputs. In addition, CH7 can
act as a COM pin for both single-ended and differential
modes if the COM bit in the input word is high. Regardless
of the MUX configuration, the “+” and “–” inputs are
sampled at the same instant. Any unwanted signal that is
common mode to both inputs will be reduced by the
common mode rejection of the sample-and-hold circuit.
The inputs draw only one small current spike while charging the sample-and-hold capacitors during the acquire
mode. In conversion mode, the analog inputs draw only a
small leakage current. If the source impedance of the
driving circuit is low then the LTC1863L/LTC1867L inputs
can be driven directly. More acquisition time should be
allowed for a higher impedance source.
The following list is a summary of the op amps that are
suitable for driving the LTC1863L/LTC1867L. More detailed information is available in the Linear Technology
data books or Linear Technology website.

Input Filtering
The noise and the distortion of the input amplifier and
other circuitry must be considered since they will add to
the LTC1863L/LTC1867L noise and distortion. Noisy input circuitry should be filtered prior to the analog inputs to
minimize noise. A simple 1-pole RC filter is sufficient for
many applications. For instance, Figure 1 shows a 50Ω
source resistor and a 2000pF capacitor to ground on the
input will limit the input bandwidth to 1.6MHz. The source
impedance has to be kept low to avoid gain error and
degradation in the AC performance. The capacitor also
acts as a charge reservoir for the input sample-and-hold
and isolates the ADC input from sampling glitch sensitive
circuitry. High quality capacitors and resistors should be

DC Performance
One way of measuring the transition noise associated with
a high resolution ADC is to use a technique where a DC
signal is applied to the input of the ADC and the resulting
output codes are collected over a large number of conversions. For example, in Figure 2 the distribution of output
codes is shown for a DC input that had been digitized 4096
times. The distribution is Gaussian and the RMS code
transition noise is about 1.6LSB.
components at the A/D output. The output is band limited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 3a shows a typical SINAD of 81.4dB with
a 175kHz sampling rate and a 1kHz input. Higher SINAD can
be obtained with a 3V supply. For example, when an external 3V is applied to REFCOMP (tie VREF to GND), a SINAD
of 83.5dB can be achieved as shown in Figure 3b.

Dynamic Performance
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) test techniques are used to
test the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise at
the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine
wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm, the ADC’s spectral content can be examined for
frequencies outside the fundamental.

where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics.
Internal Reference
The LTC1863L and LTC1867L have an on-chip, temperature compensated, curvature corrected, bandgap reference that is factory trimmed to 1.25V. It is internally
connected to a reference amplifier and is available at VREF
(Pin 10). A 3k resistor is in series with the output so that
it can be easily overdriven by an external reference if
better drift and/or accuracy are required as shown in
Figure 4. The reference amplifier gains the VREF voltage by
2x to 2.5V at REFCOMP (Pin 9). This reference amplifier

compensation pin, REFCOMP, must be bypassed with a
10µF ceramic or tantalum in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic
for best noise performance.
LTC1863L/LTC1867L
The LTC1863L and LTC1867L have a very simple digital
interface that is enabled by the control input, CS/CONV. A
logic rising edge applied to the CS/CONV input will initiate
a conversion. After the conversion, taking CS/CONV low
will enable the serial port and the ADC will present digital
data in two’s complement format in bipolar mode or
straight binary format in unipolar mode, through the SCK/
SDO serial port.
Internal Clock
The internal clock is factory trimmed to achieve a typical
conversion time of 3.2µs and a maximum conversion
time, 3.7µs, over the full operating temperature range. The
typical acquisition time is 1.68µs, and a throughput sampling rate of 175ksps is tested and guaranteed.
Automatic Nap Mode
The LTC1863L and LTC1867L go into automatic nap mode
when CS/CONV is held high after the conversion is complete. With a typical operating current of 750µA and automatic 170µA nap mode between conversions, the power
dissipation drops with reduced sample rate. The ADC only
keeps the VREF and REFCOMP voltages active when the part
is in the automatic nap mode. The slower the sample rate
allows the power dissipation to be lower (see Figure 5).

If the CS/CONV returns low during a bit decision, it can
create a small error. For best performance ensure that the
CS/CONV returns low either within 100ns after the conversion starts (i.e. before the first bit decision) or after the
conversion ends. If CS/CONV is low when the conversion
ends, the MSB bit will appear on SDO at the end of the
conversion and the ADC will remain powered up.
the common return for these bypass capacitors is essential to the low noise operation of the ADC. The width for
these tracks should be as wide as possible.
Timing and Control
Conversion start is controlled by the CS/CONV digital
input. The rising edge transition of the CS/CONV will start
a conversion. Once initiated, it cannot be restarted until the
conversion is complete. Figures 6 and 7 show the timing
diagrams for two types of CS/CONV pulses.
Sleep Mode
If the SLP = 1 is selected in the input word, the ADC will
enter SLEEP mode and draw only leakage current (provided that all the digital inputs stay at GND or VDD). After
release from the SLEEP mode, the ADC needs 80ms to
wake up (charge the 2.2µF/10µF bypass capacitors on
VREF/REFCOMP pins).
Example 1 (Figure 6) shows the LTC1863L/LTC1867L
operating in automatic nap mode with CS/CONV signal
staying HIGH after the conversion. Automatic nap mode
provides power reduction at reduced sample rate.
The ADCs can also operate with the CS/CONV signal
returning LOW before the conversion ends. In this mode
(Example 2, Figure 7), the ADCs remain powered up. The
digital output, SDO, will go HIGH immediately after the
conversion is complete if the analog inputs are above half
scale in unipolar mode or below half scale in bipolar mode.
This is a way to measure the conversion time of the A/D
converter.
Board Layout and Bypassing
To obtain the best performance, a printed circuit board
with a ground plane is required. Layout for the printed
circuit board should ensure digital and analog signal lines
are separated as much as possible. In particular, care
should be taken not to run any digital signal alongside an
analog signal.
Figures 8 and 9 are the transfer characteristics for the
bipolar and unipolar mode.
All analog inputs should be screened by GND. VREF,
REFCOMP and VDD should be bypassed to this ground
plane as close to the pin as possible; the low impedance of
