GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD73291 is an 8-channel, 12-bit plus sign successive
approximation ADC designed on the iCMOS (industrial
CMOS) process. iCMOS is a process combining high voltage
CMOS and low voltage CMOS. It enables the development of
a wide range of high performance analog ICs capable of 33 V
operation in a footprint that no previous generation of high
voltage parts could achieve. Unlike analog ICs using conventional
CMOS processes, iCMOS components can accept bipolar input
signals while providing increased performance, dramatically
reduced power consumption, and reduced package size.
The AD7329 can accept true bipolar analog input signals. The
AD7329 has four software-selectable input ranges, ±10 V, ±5 V,
±2.5 V, and 0 V to +10 V. Each analog input channel can be
independently programmed to one of the four input ranges.
The analog input channels on the AD7329 can be programmed
to be single-ended, true differential, or pseudo differential.
The ADC contains a 2.5 V internal reference. The AD7329 also
allows for external reference operation. If a 3 V reference is
applied to the REF

Transient currents of up to 100 mA do not cause SCR latch-up.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
