AD8436ACPZ-R7

Analog Devices · RMS To DC Converters · LFCSP-20(4x4)

AD8436ACPZ-R7 from Analog Devices, in a LFCSP-20(4x4). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 DNC unconnected Do Not Connect. Used for factory test - leave floating.
2 RMS input AC input to the RMS core. Feeds the internal 8 kΩ RMS core input resistor.
3 IBUFOUT output FET input buffer output pin. Buffered high-Z input signal available here for external routing to the RMS core.
4 IBUFIN- input FET input buffer inverting input pin. Together with the optional 10 kΩ gain resistor sets the buffer gain.
5 IBUFIN+ input FET input buffer noninverting input pin. High-impedance (>10^12 Ω, ≤2 pF) signal input to the on-board FET buffer.
6 IBUFGN passive Optional 10 kΩ precision gain resistor node for setting the FET input buffer gain (typically gain of ×2 or more).
7 DNC unconnected Do Not Connect. Used for factory test - leave floating.
8 OGND passive Internal 16 kΩ I-to-V resistor node. Ground reference for the output current-to-voltage conversion.
9 OUT output RMS core voltage or current output. Provides the DC-equivalent RMS result; output resistance ~16 kΩ.
10 VEE power_in Negative supply rail. -2.4 V to -18 V dual-supply, or GND for single-supply operation (4.8 V to 36 V total).
11 IGND passive Half-supply node. Provides the mid-rail reference used for single-supply biasing of the input signal path.
12 OBUFIN+ input Output buffer noninverting input pin. Signal input to the precision DC output buffer amplifier.
13 OBUFIN- input Output buffer inverting input pin. Feedback node of the precision DC output buffer.
14 OBUFOUT output Output buffer output pin. Drives low-impedance loads with up to 15 mA source / 0.5 mA sink current.
15 OBUFV+ power_in Positive supply pin dedicated to the DC output buffer. Typically tied to VCC.
16 IBUFV+ power_in Positive supply pin dedicated to the FET input buffer. Typically tied to VCC.
17 VCC power_in Positive supply rail for the RMS core. +2.4 V to +18 V (dual) or 4.8 V to 36 V (single supply).
18 CCF passive Connection for crest factor capacitor. External capacitor (typ. 0.1 µF) extends usable crest factor up to 10.
19 CAVG passive Connection for averaging capacitor. External CAVG (typ. 10 µF) sets the RMS averaging time constant.
20 SUM input Summing amplifier input pin. Signal summing node feeding the RMS core.
EP EP passive Exposed pad. Connection to ground is optional; leave floating or tie to GND for improved thermal performance.
