MCP3008-I

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

MCP3008-I 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 channel 0; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as the IN+ or IN- channel of a pseudo-differential pair.
2 CH1 input Analog input channel 1; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as the IN+ or IN- channel of a pseudo-differential pair.
3 CH2 input Analog input channel 2; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as the IN+ or IN- channel of a pseudo-differential pair.
4 CH3 input Analog input channel 3; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as the IN+ or IN- channel of a pseudo-differential pair.
5 CH4 input Analog input channel 4, available on the MCP3008 only; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as part of a pseudo-differential pair.
6 CH5 input Analog input channel 5, available on the MCP3008 only; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as part of a pseudo-differential pair.
7 CH6 input Analog input channel 6, available on the MCP3008 only; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as part of a pseudo-differential pair.
8 CH7 input Analog input channel 7, available on the MCP3008 only; can be programmed as a single-ended input or as part of a pseudo-differential pair.
9 DGND power_in Digital ground connection to the internal digital circuitry.
10 CS/SHDN input Chip Select/Shutdown: pulled low to initiate communication; must be pulled high between conversions, which ends a conversion and puts the device in low-power standby.
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 changes on the falling edge of each clock.
13 CLK input SPI serial clock used to initiate a conversion and to clock out each bit of the conversion; clock speed constraints apply per Section 6.2.
14 AGND power_in Analog ground connection to the internal analog circuitry.
15 VREF power_in Reference voltage input for the A/D converter.
16 VDD power_in Power supply, +2.7V to 5.5V.
