MCP3208-CI

Microchip Tech · Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) · SOIC-16

MCP3208-CI from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-16. 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 CH0 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 0; each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
2 CH1 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 1; each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
3 CH2 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 2; each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
4 CH3 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 3; each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
5 CH4 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 4 (MCP3208 only); each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
6 CH5 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 5 (MCP3208 only); each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
7 CH6 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 6 (MCP3208 only); each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
8 CH7 input Analog input for multiplexed channel 7 (MCP3208 only); each channel pair can be programmed as two single-ended channels or as one pseudo-differential input.
9 DGND power_in Digital ground connection to the internal digital circuitry; if no ground plane is used it must be connected to VSS on the board, and with a ground plane it should be tied to the analog ground plane.
10 CS/SHDN input Pulling low initiates communication with the device, and pulling high ends a conversion and places the device in low-power standby; it must be pulled high between conversions.
11 DIN input SPI serial data input used to load channel configuration data into the device.
12 DOUT output SPI serial data output used to shift out the A/D conversion results; data always changes on the falling edge of each clock.
13 CLK input SPI serial clock that initiates a conversion and clocks out each bit of the conversion; clock speed constraints are given in Section 6.2.
14 AGND power_in Analog ground connection to the internal analog circuitry; connect to the analog ground plane when one is available.
15 VREF power_in Reference voltage input for the A/D converter.
16 VDD power_in Power supply input, +2.7V to 5.5V.
