GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD7417 and AD7418 are 10-bit, 4-channel and single­channel ADCs with an on-chip temperature sensor that
can operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply. The
devices contain a 15 µs successive approximation converter, a
5-channel multiplexer, a temperature sensor, a clock oscilla­tor, a track-and-hold, and a reference (2.5 V). The AD7416
is a temperature-monitoring only device in an 8-lead package.

The temperature sensor on the parts can be accessed via multi­plexer Channel 0. When Channel 0 is selected and a conversion
is initiated, the resulting ADC code at the end of the conversion
gives a measurement of the ambient temperature (±1°C @ 25°C).
On-chip registers can be programmed with high and low tem­perature limits, and an open-drain overtemperature indicator
(OTI) output is provided, which becomes active when a pro­grammed limit is exceeded.

A configuration register allows programming of the sense of the
OTI output (active high or active low) and its operating mode
(comparator or interrupt). A programmable fault queue counter
allows the number of out-of-limit measurements that must occur
before triggering the OTI output to be set to prevent spurious
triggering of the OTI output in noisy environments.

power-up time for the part is 4 µs. If the CONVST pulse is greater than 4 µs, the falling edge of CONVST
places the track-and-hold mode into hold mode and initiates a conversion. If the pulse is less than 4 µs,
an internal timer ensures that the track-and-hold does not go into hold and conversion is not initiated
until the power-up time has elapsed. The track-and-hold goes into track mode again at the end of con­version. (See Operating Mode section.)

NOTES

1

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 listed in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

2

If the reference input voltage is likely to exceed VDD by more than 0.3 V (e.g.,
during power-up) and the reference is capable of supplying 30 mA or more, it is
recommended to use a clamping diode between the REFIN pin and VDD pin. The
diagram below shows how the diode should be connected.

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
AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 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.

sensor that allows an accurate measurement of the ambient
temperature (±1°C @ 25°C, ± 2°C overtemperature) to be
made. The measurable temperature range is –40°C to +125°C.
An overtemperature indicator is implemented by carrying
out a digital comparison of the ADC code for Channel 0
(temperature sensor) with the contents of the on-chip over­temperature register.

2. The AD7417 offers a space-saving 10-bit A/D solution with

four external voltage input channels, an on-chip temperature
sensor, an on-chip reference, and clock oscillator.

3. The automatic power-down feature enables the AD7416/

AD7417/AD7418 to achieve superior power performance. At
slower throughput rates, the part can be programmed to
operate in a low power shutdown mode, allowing further
savings in power consumption.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy

Relative accuracy or endpoint nonlinearity is the maximum
deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of
the ADC transfer function.

Differential Nonlinearity

This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.

Offset Error

This is the deviation of the first code transition (0000 . . . 000)
to (0000 . . . 001) from the ideal, i.e., GND + 1 LSB.

Offset Error Match

This is the difference in offset error between any two channels.

Gain Error

This is the deviation of the last code transition (1111 . . . 110)
to (1111 . . . 111) from the ideal, i.e., VREF – 1 LSB, after the
offset error has been adjusted out.

Gain Error Match

This is the difference in gain error between any two channels.

Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time

Track-and-hold acquisition time is the time required for the
output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach its final value,
within ± 1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion (the point at which
the track-and-hold returns to track mode). It also applies to

situations where a change in the selected input channel takes
place or where there is a step input change on the input voltage
applied to the selected A

input of the AD7417 or AD7418. It

IN

means that the user must wait for the duration of the track-and­hold acquisition time after the end of conversion or after a channel
change/step input change to A

before starting another conver-

IN

sion, to ensure that the part operates to specification.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION

The AD7417 and AD7418 are single-channel and four-channel,
15 µs conversion time, 10-bit ADCs with on-chip temperature
sensor, reference, and serial interface logic functions on a single
chip. The AD7416 has no analog input channel and is intended
for temperature measurement only. The ADC section consists
of a conventional successive approximation converter based
around a capacitor DAC. The AD7416, AD7417, and AD7418
are capable of running on a 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply, and
the AD7417 and AD7418 accept an analog input range of 0 V
to +VREF. The on-chip temperature sensor allows an accurate
measurement of the ambient device temperature to be made.
The working measurement range of the temperature sensor is
–40°C to +125°C. The parts require a 2.5 V reference that can
be provided from the part’s own internal reference or from an
external reference source.

CONVERTER DETAILS

Conversion is initiated on the AD7417/AD7418 by pulsing the
CONVST input. The conversion clock for the part is internally
generated so no external clock is required except when reading
from and writing to the serial port. The on-chip track-and-hold
goes from track to hold mode and the conversion sequence is
started on the falling edge of the CONVST signal. A conversion
is also initiated in the automatic conversion mode every time a
read or write operation to the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 takes
place. In this case, the internal clock oscillator (which runs the
automatic conversion sequence) is restarted at the end of the
read or write operation. The track-and-hold goes into hold
approximately 3 µs after the read or write operation is complete
and a conversion is then initiated. The result of the conversion
is available either 15 µs or 30 µs later, depending on whether an
analog input channel or the temperature sensor is selected. The
track-and-hold acquisition time of the AD7417/AD7418 is 400 ns.

A temperature measurement is made by selecting the Channel 0
of the on-chip mux and carrying out a conversion on this channel.
A conversion on Channel 0 takes 30 µs to complete. Tempera-
ture measurement is explained in the Temperature Measurement
section of this data sheet.

The on-chip reference is not available to the user, but REF

IN

can be overdriven by an external reference source (2.5 V only).

All unused analog inputs should be tied to a voltage within the
nominal analog input range to avoid noise pickup. For mini­mum power consumption, the unused analog inputs should be
tied to GND.

TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM

Figure 2 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7417.
Using the A0, A1, and A2 pins allows the user to select from up
to eight AD7417s on the same serial bus, if desired. An external

2.5 V reference can be connected at the REF

pin. If an exter-

IN

nal reference is used, a 10 µF capacitor should be connected
between REF

and GND. SDA and SCL form the 2-wire I2C

compatible interface. For applications where power consump­tion is of concern, the automatic power-down at the end of a
conversion should be used to improve power performance. See

ANALOG INPUTS

Figure 3 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input struc­ture of the AD7417 and AD7418. The two diodes, D1 and D2,
provide ESD protection for the analog inputs. Care must be
taken to ensure that the analog input signal never exceeds the
supply rails by more than 200 mV. This will cause these diodes
to become forward-biased and start conducting current into the
substrate. The maximum current these diodes can conduct
without causing irreversible damage to the part is 20 mA. The
capacitor C2 in Figure 3 is typically about 4 pF and can prima­rily be attributed to pin capacitance. The resistor R1 is a lumped
component made up of the on resistance of a multiplexer and a
switch. This resistor is typically about 1 kΩ. The capacitor C1 is
the ADC sampling capacitor and has a capacitance of 3 pF.

start of the conversion phase and is powered down at the end of
the conversion. The on-chip reference is selected by connecting
the REF

pin to analog ground. This causes SW1 (see Figure 4)

IN

to open and the reference amplifier to power up during a conver­sion. Therefore, the on-chip reference is not available externally.
An external 2.5 V reference can be connected to the REF

IN

pin.

This has the effect of shutting down the on-chip reference circuitry.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT

A common method of measuring temperature is to exploit the
negative temperature coefficient of a diode, or the base-emitter
voltage of a transistor, operated at a constant current. Unfortu­nately, this technique requires calibration to null out the effect
of the absolute value of V

, which varies from device to device.

Figure 5 shows the method the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 uses
to measure the device temperature. To measure ⌬V

, the sen-

BE

sor (substrate transistor) is switched between operating currents
of I and N × I. The resulting waveform is passed through a
chopper-stabilized amplifier that performs the functions of
amplification and rectification of the waveform to produce a dc
voltage proportional to ⌬V

BE

.

This voltage is measured by the ADC to give a temperature
output in 10-bit twos complement form.

The temperature resolution of the ADC is 0.25°C, which corre­sponds to 1 LSB of the ADC. The ADC can theoretically measure
a temperature span of 255°C; the guaranteed temperature range
is –40°C to +125°C. The result of the conversion is stored in
the Temperature Value Register (00h) as a 16-bit word. The
10 MSBs of this word store the temperature measurement (see
Table III and Table IV).

The temperature conversion formula using the 10 MSBs of the
Temperature Value Register is

1. Positive Temperature = ADC Code/4

2. Negative Temperature = (ADC Code* – 512)/4

*MSB is removed from the ADC Code.

INTERNAL REGISTER STRUCTURE

The AD7417/AD7418 has seven internal registers, as shown in
Figure 6. Six of these are data registers and one is an Address
Pointer Register. The AD7416 has five internal registers (the
ADC and Config2 Registers are not applicable to the AD7416).

stored in the Address Pointer Register, and selects the data
register to which subsequent data bytes are written. Only the
three LSBs of this register are used to select a data register.

CONFIGURATION REGISTER (ADDRESS 01h)

The Configuration Register is an 8-bit, read/write register that
is used to set the operating modes of the AD7416/AD7417/
AD7418. Bits D7 to D5 control the channel selection as
outlined in Table VI. These bits should always be 0, 0, 0 for
the AD7416. Bits D4 and D3 are used to set the length of the
fault queue. D2 sets the sense of the OTI output. D1 selects
the comparator or interrupt mode of operation, and D0 = 1
selects the shutdown mode (Default D0 = 0).

SERIAL BUS INTERFACE

Control of the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 is carried out via the

2

C compatible serial bus. The AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 is

I
connected to this bus as a slave device, under the control of a
master device, e.g., the processor.

SERIAL BUS ADDRESS

As with all I2C compatible devices, the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418
have a 7-bit serial address. The four MSBs of this address for the
AD7416 are set to 1001; the AD7417 are set to 0101, while the
three LSBs can be set by the user by connecting the A2 to A0
pins to either V

or GND. By giving them different addresses, up

DD

to eight AD7416/AD7417s can be connected to a single serial bus,

–11–

AD7416/AD7417/AD7418

or the addresses can be set to avoid conflicts with other devices
on the bus. The four MSBs of this address for the AD7418 are set
to 0101, while the three LSBs are all set to zero.

If a serial communication occurs during a conversion operation,
the conversion will stop and will restart after the communication.

The serial bus protocol operates as follows:

1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start

condition, defined as a high-to-low transition on the serial
data line, SDA, while the serial clock line, SCL, remains
high. This indicates that an address/data stream will follow.
All slave peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to
the 7-bit address (MSB first) plus an R/W bit, which deter­mines the direction of the data transfer, i.e., whether data
will be written to or read from the slave device.

The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the data line low during the low
period before the ninth clock pulse, known as the Acknowl­edge bit. All other devices on the bus now remain idle while
the selected device waits for data to be read from or written
to it. If the R/W bit is a 0, then the master will write to the
slave device. If the R/W bit is a 1, then the master will read
from the slave device.

2. Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock

pulses, eight bits of data followed by an Acknowledge bit
from the receiver of data. Transitions on the data line must
occur during the low period of the clock signal and remain
stable during the high period, since a low-to-high transition
when the clock is high may be interpreted as a stop signal.

3. When all data bytes have been read or written, stop condi-

tions are established. In write mode, the master will pull the
data line high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop
condition. In read mode, the master device will pull the data

191

SCL

line high during the low period before the 9th clock pulse.
This is known as No Acknowledge. The master will then take
the data line low during the low period before the 10th clock
pulse, then high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop
condition.

Any number of bytes of data may be transferred over the serial
bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix read and write
in one operation because the type of operation is determined at
the beginning and cannot subsequently be changed without
starting a new operation.

WRITING TO THE AD7416/AD7417/AD7418

Depending on the register being written to, there are three
different writes for the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418.

1. Writing to the Address Pointer Register for a subsequent read.

In order to read data from a particular register, the Address
Pointer Register must contain the address of that register. If
it does not, the correct address must be written to the Address
Pointer Register by performing a single-byte write operation,
as shown in Figure 8. The write operation consists of the
serial bus address followed by the address pointer byte. No
data is written to any of the data registers.

2. Writing a single byte of data to the configuration registers or
to the T

OTI

, T

HYST

registers.

The Configuration Register is an 8-bit register, so only one
byte of data can be written to it. If only 8-bit temperature
comparisons are required, the temperature LSB can be
ignored in T
written to the T

OTI

and T

READING DATA FROM THE AD7416/AD7417/AD7418

Reading data from the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 is a one or
two byte operation. Reading back the contents of the Configura­tion Register is a single byte read operation, as shown in Figure
11, the register address previously having been set by a single­byte write operation to the Address Pointer Register.

Reading data from the temperature value, T
ter, is a two-byte operation, as shown in Figure 12. It is also
possible to read the most significant bit of a 9-bit/10-bit register
in this manner.

OTI OUTPUT

The OTI output has two operating modes, which are selected
by Bit D1 of the Configuration Register. In the comparator
mode, (D1 = 0), the OTI output becomes active when the
temperature exceeds T
ture falls below T

HYST

and remains active until the tempera-

OTI

. This mode allows the AD7416/AD7417/
AD7418 to be used as a thermostat, for example, to control the
operation of a cooling fan.

Figure 13. Operation of OTI Output (Shown Active Low)

The open-drain configuration of OTI allows the OTI outputs of
several AD7416/AD7417/AD7418s to be wire-ANDed together
when in active low mode.

The OTI output is used to indicate that an out-of-limit tem­perature excursion has occurred. OTI is an open-drain output
that can be programmed to be active low by setting Bit D2 of
the Configuration Register to 0 or active high by setting Bit D2
of the Configuration Register to 1.

In the interrupt mode (D1 = 1), the OTI output becomes active
when the temperature exceeds T
the temperature falls below T

HYST

and remains active even if

T

, and has then been reset, it will remain inactive even if the

OTI

temperature remains, or subsequently rises again, above T

OTI

. It
will not become active again until the temperature falls below
T

. It will then remain active until reset by a read opera-

HYST

tion. Once OTI has become active by the temperature falling
below T
temperature remains, or subsequently falls again, below T

and then reset, it will remain inactive even if the

OTI is also reset when the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 is placed
in shutdown mode by setting Bit D0 of the Configuration Regis­ter to 1.

The OTI output requires an external pull-up resistor. This can
be connected to a voltage different from V

(for example, to

DD

allow interfacing between 5 V and 3.3 V systems) provided that
the maximum voltage rating of the OTI output is not exceeded.

The value of the pull-up resistor depends on the application but
should be as large as possible to avoid excessive sink currents at
the OTI output, which can heat the chip and affect the tempera­ture reading. The maximum value of the pull-up resistor that
will meet the output high current specification of the OTI out­put is 30 kΩ, but higher values may be used if a lower output
current is required. For most applications, a value of 10 kΩ will
prove suitable.

FAULT QUEUE

To avoid false triggering of the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 in
noisy environments, a fault queue counter is provided that can
be programmed by Bits D3 and D4 of the Configuration Regis­ter (see Table V) to count 1, 2, 4, or 6 fault events before OTI
becomes active. In order to trigger OTI, the faults must occur
consecutively. For example, if the fault queue is set to 4, then
four consecutive temperature measurements greater than T
(or less than T

) must occur. Any reading that breaks the

HYST

OTI

sequence will reset the fault queue counter, so if there are three
readings greater than T

followed by a reading less than T

OTI

the fault queue counter will be reset without triggering OTI.

POWER-ON DEFAULTS

following defaults.

These default settings allow the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 to
be used as a standalone thermostat without any connection to a
serial bus.

OPERATING MODES

The AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 has two possible modes of
operation depending on the value of D0 in the Configuration
Register.

Mode 1

Normal operation of the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 occurs when
D0 = 0. In this active mode, a conversion takes place every
400 µs. Once the conversion has taken place, the part partially
powers down, consuming typically 350 µA of the current until
the next conversion occurs.

Two situations can arise in this mode on the request of a tempera­ture read. If a read occurs during a conversion, the conversion
aborts and a new one starts on the stop/repeat start condition.
The temperature value that is read is that of the previous com­pleted conversion. The next conversion will typically occur
400 µs after the new conversion has begun.

If a read is called between conversions, a conversion is initiated
on the stop/repeat start condition. After this conversion, the part
returns to performing a conversion every 400 µs.

REV. G–14–

AD7416/AD7417/AD7418

With a VDD = 3 V, for each 400 µs cycle, the AD7416 spends
40 µs (or 10% of the time) in conversion mode. It spends 360 µs
(or 90% of time) in partial power-down mode. Thus, the aver­age power dissipated by the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 is

301109 12mW ×+ ×=...mW mW

Mode 2

For applications where temperature measurements are required at
a slower rate, e.g., every second, power consumption of the part
can be reduced by writing to the part to go to a full power-down
between reads. The current consumption in full power-down is
typically 0.2 µA and full power-down is initiated when D0 = 1
in the Configuration Register. When a measurement is required,
a write operation can be performed to power-up the part. The
part then performs a conversion and is returned to power-down.
The temperature value can be read in the full power-down
because the I

2

C bus is continuously active.

The power dissipation in this mode depends on the rate at which
reads take place. Taking the requirements for a temperature
measurement every 100 ms as an example, the optimum power
dissipation is achieved by placing the part in full power-down,
waking it up every 100 ms, letting it operate for 400 µs and
putting it into full power-down again. In this case, the average
power consumption is calculated as follows. The part spends
40 µs (or 0.04% of time) converting with 3 mW dissipation and
a 99.96 ms (99.96% of time) in full shutdown with 60 nW dissipa­tion. Thus, the average power dissipation is

30004 60 0 9996 1 2mW nW W×+ × =...µ

The fastest throughput rate at which the AD7416/AD7417/
AD7418 can be operated is 2.5 kHz (i.e., a read every 400 µs
conversion period). Since T

and T

are 2-byte reads, the

HYST

If temperature reads are called too often, reads will overlap
with conversions, aborting them continuously, which results in
invalid readings.

CONVERT START MODE

The AD7417/AD7418 has an extra mode, set by writing to the
MSB of the Config2 Register.

CONVST Pin Mode

By setting the CONVST Mode Bit to 1, conversions are initiated
only by using the CONVST pin. In this method of operation,
CONVST is normally low.

The rising edge of CONVST starts the power-up time. This
power-up time is 4 µs. If the CONVST high time is longer than
4 µs, a conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CONVST
and the track-and-hold also enters its hold mode at this time. If
the CONVST high time is less than 4 µs, an internal timer,
initiated by the rising edge of CONVST holds off the track-and­hold and the initiation of conversion until the timer times out
(4 µs after the rising edge of CONVST, which corresponds with
the power-up time). CONVST input remains low at the end of
conversion, thus causing the part to enter its power-down mode.
In this method of operation, CONVST is normally low with a
high going pulse controlling the power-up and conversion starts.

The CONVST pin should not be pulsed when reading from or
writing to the port.

Figure 17 shows the recommended minimum times for the
CONVST pulse when the temperature channel is selected.
Figure 18 shows the minimum times an analog input channel
is selected.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION SUPPLY DECOUPLING

The AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 should be decoupled with a

0.1 µF ceramic capacitor between V

and GND. This is

DD

particularly important if the part is mounted remote from the
power supply.

POWER-ON-RESET

To ensure proper power-on-reset, make sure that the supply
voltage on the V

pin is at 0 V. Refer to application note

DD

AN-588 for more information. A failed power-on-reset can
prevent the default values from being loaded into the AD7416/
AD7417/AD7418 registers. If the correct values are not loaded
into the registers, then the device will not start operating. The
output from the value registers will be a constant value.

To get the device operating again, the registers will have to be
loaded with their default values via the I

2

C bus. Therefore, in
the event of an inadequate power-on-reset and for all three
devices, the following registers should be loaded with their
default values:

Configuration Register 1—Default Value = 00h
Configuration Register 2—Default Value = 00h
T

Setpoint Register—Default Value = 4B00h

HYST

Setpoint Register—Default Value = 5500h

MOUNTING THE AD7416

The AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 can be used for surface or air
temperature sensing applications. If the device is cemented to a
surface with thermally conductive adhesive, the die temperature
will be within about 0.2°C of the surface temperature, thanks to
the device’s low power consumption. Care should be taken to
insulate the back and leads of the device from the air, if the
ambient air temperature is different from the surface tempera­ture being measured.

The ground pin provides the best thermal path to the die, so the
temperature of the die will be close to that of the printed circuit
ground track. Care should be taken to ensure that this is in good
thermal contact with the surface being measured.

As with any IC, the AD7416/AD7417/AD7418 and its associ­ated wiring and circuits must be kept free from moisture to
prevent leakage and corrosion, particularly in cold conditions
where condensation is more likely to occur. Water resistant
varnishes and conformal coatings can be used for protection.
The small size of the AD7416 package allows it to be mounted
inside sealed metal probes that provide a safe environment for
the device.

FAN CONTROLLER

Figure 14 shows a simple fan controller that will switch ON a
cooling fan when the temperature exceeds 80°C and switch it
OFF again when the temperature falls below 75°C. The AD7416
can be used standalone in this application or with a serial bus
interface if different trip temperatures are required. If the AD7416
is used with a bus interface, the sense of OTI can be set to active
high, Q1 and R1 can be omitted, and OTI can be connected
directly to the gate of Q2 with R2 as the pull-up resistor.

SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE AD7416S

The three LSBs of the AD7416’s serial address can be set by the
user, allowing eight different addresses from 1001000 to 1001111.
Figure 16 shows a system in which eight AD7416s are connected
to a single serial bus, with their OTI outputs wire-ANDed
together to form a common interrupt line. This arrangement
does mean that each device must be read to determine which
one has generated the interrupt, and if a unique interrupt is
required for each device, the OTI outputs can be connected
separately to the I/O chip.
