3 Description
The ADS7066 is a small, 16-bit, 8-channel, highprecision
successive-approximation register (SAR)
analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADS7066 has
an integrated capless reference and a reference
buffer that helps reduce the overall solution size
by requiring fewer external components. The device
family includes the ADS7067 (800 kSPS) and the
ADS7066 (250 kSPS) speed variants.
The ADS7066 features built-in offset calibration for
improved accuracy over wide operating conditions
of the system. The programmable averaging filters
enable higher resolution measurement. The eight
channels of the ADS7066 can be individually
configured as analog inputs, digital inputs, or digital
outputs that simplify circuit design for mixed signal
feedback and digital control.
The enhanced-SPI enables the ADS7066 in achieving
high throughput at lower clock speeds, thereby
simplifying the board layout and lowering system cost.
The ADS7066 features a cyclic redundancy check
(CRC) for data read and write operations and the
power-up configuration.
