The LTC
®
1274/LTC1277 are 8µs sampling 12-bit A/D
converters which draw only 2mA (typ) from single 5V or
±5V
supplies. These easy-to-use devices come complete
with a 2µs sample-and-hold, a precision reference and an
internally trimmed clock. Unipolar and bipolar conversion
modes add to the flexibility of the ADCs.
Two power-down modes are available in the LTC1277. In
Nap mode, the LTC1277 draws only 180µA and the instant
wake-up from Nap mode allows the LTC1277 to be pow-
ered down even during brief inactive periods. In Sleep
mode only 1µA will be drawn. A REFRDY signal is used to
show the ADC is ready to sample after waking up from
Sleep mode. The LTC1274 also provides the Sleep mode
and REFRDY signal.
The A/D converters convert 0V to 4.096V unipolar inputs
from a single 5V supply or
±2.048V
bipolar inputs from
±5V
supplies.
The LTC1274 has a single-ended input and a 12-bit
parallel data format. The LTC1277 offers a differential
input and a 2-byte read format. The bipolar mode is
formatted as 2’s complement for the LTC1274 and offset
binary for the LTC1277.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
All voltage values are with respect to ground with DGND and
AGND wired together and V

in LTC1277 (unless
otherwise noted).
Note 3:
When these pin voltages are taken below V
SS
(ground for unipolar
mode) or above V

, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product
can handle input currents greater than 60mA below V
SS

Note 6:

Note 7:
Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.

Note 8:
For LTC1274, bipolar offset is the offset voltage measured from
– 0.5LSB when the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 and
1111 1111 1111. For LTC1277, bipolar offset voltage is measured from
– 0.5LSB when the output code flickers between 0111 1111 1111 and
1000 0000 0000.
Note 9:
The AC tests apply to bipolar mode only and the S/(N + D) is 71dB
(typ) for unipolar mode at 100kHz input frequency.
Note 10:
Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 11:
Recommended operating conditions.
Note 12:
A
IN
must not exceed V
DD
or fall below V
SS
by more than 50mV to
specified accuracy.
Note 13:
The falling CONVST edge starts a conversion. If CONVST returns
high at a bit decision point during the conversion it can create small
errors. For best performance ensure that CONVST returns high either
within 400ns after conversion start (i.e., before the first bit decision) or
after BUSY rises (i.e., after the last bit test). See timing diagrams Modes
1a and 1b (Figures 13, 14).
