The LTC1272 is a 3µs, 12-bit, successive approximation
sampling A/D converter. It has the same pinout as the
industry standard AD7572 and offers faster conversion
time, on-chip sample-and-hold, and single supply operation. It uses LTBiCMOSTM switched-capacitor technology to
combine a high speed 12-bit ADC with a fast, accurate
sample-and-hold and a precision reference.
The LTC1272 operates with a single 5V supply but can also
accept the 5V/–15V supplies required by the AD7572 (Pin
23, the negative supply pin of the AD7572, is not connected
on the LTC1272). The LTC1272 has the same 0V to 5V input
range as the AD7572 but, to achieve single supply operation, it provides a 2.42V reference output instead of the
–5.25V of the AD7572. It plugs in for the AD7572 if the
reference capacitor polarity is reversed and a 1µ s sampleand-hold acquisition time is allowed between conversions.
The output data can be read as a 12-bit word or as two
8-bit bytes. This allows easy interface to both 8-bit and
higher processors. The LTC1272 can be used with a
crystal or an external clock and comes in speed grades of
3µs and 8µs.

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, unless otherwise noted.
Note 3: When the analog input voltage is taken below ground it will be
clamped by an internal diode. This product can handle, with no external
diode, input currents of greater than 60mA below ground without latch-up.

multiplex the internal 12-bit conversion result into the
lower bit outputs (D7 to D0/8). See table below. HBEN also
disables conversion starts when HIGH.
RD (Pin 20): Read Input. This active low signal starts a
conversion when CS and HBEN are low. RD also enables
the output drivers when CS is low.
CS (Pin 21): The Chip Select Input must be low for the ADC
to recognize RD and HBEN inputs.
BUSY (Pin 22): The BUSY Output is low when a conversion is in progress.
NC (Pin 23): Not Connected Internally. The LTC1272 does
not require negative supply. This pin can accommodate
the –15V required by the AD7572 without problems.
