ADS7816U

Texas Instruments · Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) · SOIC-8

ADS7816U from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VREF power_in Reference Input; external voltage (0.1V to 5V) sets full-scale input range.
2 +In input Non-inverting analog input; must remain within GND -0.2V to VCC +0.2V for proper linearity.
3 -In input Inverting analog input; connect to ground or remote ground sense; must stay within ±200mV of GND.
4 GND power_in Ground; analog and logic return reference.
5 CS/SHDN input Chip Select when LOW initiates conversion; HIGH enables power-down mode drawing max 3µA.
6 DOUT tri_state Serial digital output; 12-bit data MSB-first on DCLOCK falling edges, tri-states after conversion complete.
7 DCLOCK input Data Clock input; external clock (10kHz to 3.2MHz) synchronizes serial transfer and sets conversion speed.
8 +VCC power_in Power Supply input; single +5V with specified performance range 4.5V to 5.25V.
