GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7874 is a four-channel simultaneous sampling, 12-bit
data acquisition system. The part contains a high speed 12-bit
ADC, on-chip reference, on-chip clock and four track/hold amplifiers. This latter feature allows the four input channels to be
sampled simultaneously, thus preserving the relative phase
information of the four input channels, which is not possible if
all four channels share a single track/hold amplifier. This makes
the AD7874 ideal for applications such as phased-array sonar
and ac motor controllers where the relative phase information is
important.
The aperture delay of the four track/hold amplifiers is small and
specified with minimum and maximum limits. This allows several AD7874s to sample multiple input channels simultaneously
without incurring phase errors between signals connected to
several devices. A reference output/reference input facility also
allows several AD7874s to be driven from the same reference
source.
In addition to the traditional dc accuracy specifications such as
linearity, full-scale and offset errors, the AD7874 is also fully
specified for dynamic performance parameters including distortion and signal-to-noise ratio.
The AD7874 is fabricated in Analog Devices’ Linear Compatible CMOS (LC
that combines precision bipolar circuits with low-power CMOS
logic. The part is available in a 28-pin, 0.6" wide, plastic or hermetic dual-in-line package (DIP), in a 28-terminal leadless ceramic chip carrier (LCCC) and in a 28-pin SOIC.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Simultaneous Sampling of Four Input Channels.
Four input channels, each with its own track/hold amplifier,
allow simultaneous sampling of input signals. Track/hold acquisition time is 2 µs, and the conversion time per channel is
8 µs, allowing 29 kHz sample rate for all four channels.
2. Tight Aperture Delay Matching.
The aperture delay for each channel is small and the aperture
delay matching between the four channels is less than 4 ns.
Additionally, the aperture delay specification has upper and
lower limits allowing multiple AD7874s to sample more than
four channels.
3. Fast Microprocessor Interface.
The high speed digital interface of the AD7874 allows direct
connection to all modern 16-bit microprocessors and digital
signal processors.

Timing Specifications in bold print are 100% production tested. All other times are sample tested at +25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with
tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of +5 V) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.
2
t6 is measured with the load circuit of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for an output to cross 0.8 V or 2.4 V.
3
t7 is derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 2. The measured number is then extrapolated
back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the time, t
time of the part and as such is independent of external bus loading capacitances.

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 the AD7874 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.

TERMINOLOGY
ACQUISITION TIME
Acquisition Time is the time required for the output of the
track/hold amplifiers to reach their final values, within ±1/2
LSB, after the falling edge of
holds return to track mode). This includes switch delay time,
slewing time and settling time for a full-scale voltage change.
APERTURE DELAY
Aperture Delay is defined as the time required by the internal
switches to disconnect the hold capacitors from the inputs. This
produces an effective delay in sample timing. It is measured by
applying a step input and adjusting the
until the output code follows the step input change.
APERTURE DELAY MATCHING
Aperture Delay Matching is the maximum deviation in aperture
delays across the four on-chip track/hold amplifiers.
APERTURE JITTER
Aperture Jitter is the uncertainty in aperture delay caused by
internal noise and variation of switching thresholds with signal
level.
DROOP RATE
Droop Rate is the change in the held analog voltage resulting
from leakage currents.
