AK8418 개요

The Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK8418 is a 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from AKM's data-acquisition IC family, offered in a surface-mount LQFP package on Tape & Reel. It is a single-channel, high-resolution successive-approximation converter designed for precision signal-chain front ends, with typical resolution of 16 bits and serial/parallel interface options per the manufacturer datasheet.

What is a 16-bit ADC? A 16-bit analog-to-digital converter is a data-acquisition integrated circuit that samples a continuous analog input voltage and quantises it into 2^16 = 65,536 discrete codes. Within the broader signal-chain hierarchy, an ADC sits between the analog front end (sensors, amplifiers, filters) and the digital processing block (microcontroller, DSP, FPGA), and is itself a member of the data-converter sub-family of mixed-signal ICs. The 16-bit class is the workhorse for industrial measurement, instrumentation, and audio-bandwidth precision systems.

Key features of the AK8418 include 16-bit resolution, low-power operation suitable for portable and industrial measurement equipment, and an LQFP package that supports standard reflow profiles and is compatible with automated optical inspection. The device is specified over an industrial temperature range and is targeted at precision sensor read-out, weighing scales, panel meters, and process-control analog front ends.

Internally, the AK8418 uses a charge-redistribution SAR (successive-approximation register) architecture, which provides deterministic latency and no pipeline delay - a critical advantage in multiplexed multi-channel data-acquisition systems where the host must read the conversion result in the same cycle it was started. The reference and input stages are designed for low integral non-linearity (INL) and differential non-linearity (DNL), preserving the converter's 16-bit resolution over the full industrial temperature range.

Typical applications include precision weighing scales, industrial process-control analog input modules, multi-meter and panel-meter front ends, factory-automation sensor read-out (load cells, strain gauges, thermocouple reference junctions), and battery-powered portable instrumentation where the ADC's low quiescent current extends operating time.

When designing with the AK8418, pay close attention to input RC filtering and PCB layout: keep analog and digital grounds separated and joined at a single star point under the IC, place the reference decoupling capacitor as close to the REF pin as possible, and use a low-noise reference source because 16-bit ENOB is reference-noise-limited.

🏭

Precision Weighing Scales

The AK8418's 16-bit SAR resolution suits load-cell front ends in commercial and industrial weighing scales. A load cell outputs a millivolt-level differential signal proportional to weight; the AK8418's 16-bit ADC quantises this into 65,536 codes, supporting a measurement dynamic range of roughly 1 part in 32,000 when used with a low-noise instrumentation front end. The SAR architecture delivers one-cycle latency, so the host can read the conversion result immediately after the start pulse, simplifying the scale's calibration firmware. Place a 10 nF-100 nF RC filter at the AK8418 analog input to limit wideband noise, and use a low-drift external reference such as the ADR01 (10 V) to preserve the 16-bit noise-free code resolution over the industrial temperature range.

🏭

Industrial Process-Control Analog Input Modules

In 4-20 mA and 0-10 V process-control input modules, the AK8418 digitises the conditioned analog signal for the host PLC or remote I/O controller. The 16-bit resolution provides better than 0.0015% of full-scale quantisation, which is well within the noise and linearity budget of a typical 16-bit signal chain. The SAR architecture's deterministic latency enables deterministic loop-time behaviour - critical for IEC 61131-3 PLC scan cycles. A typical conditioning chain includes a 4-20 mA current-sense resistor, an op-amp buffer, an anti-aliasing RC filter, and the AK8418 referenced to a 5 V low-noise reference. The LQFP package and industrial temperature range suit DIN-rail module form factors.

🔧

Digital Panel Meters and Multimeters

The AK8418 is well-suited to 4.5-digit and 5.5-digit digital panel meters and bench multimeters, where 16-bit resolution and SAR latency determinism simplify display update timing. The SAR converter's lack of pipeline delay means each conversion result corresponds to a single known acquisition, which avoids the 'pipeline-pop' artefact that confuses multiplexed display inputs. Pair the AK8418 with a low-noise reference and a true-rms converter (such as the AD737) for AC voltage and current measurements. The LQFP surface-mount package supports automated assembly in volume panel-meter production.

🏭

Factory-Automation Sensor Read-Out

Factory-automation sensor read-out boards for load cells, strain gauges, and pressure transducers benefit from the AK8418's 16-bit resolution and SAR determinism. The host controller can synchronise multiplexed sensor reads without pipeline-delay uncertainty, simplifying the deterministic Ethernet/IP or PROFINET cycle handling. The LQFP industrial-temperature package suits DIN-rail and IP67 sealed field-mount enclosures. A typical signal chain is sensor -> instrumentation amp (e.g. AD8421) -> AK8418 -> microcontroller with isolation barrier.

📱

Battery-Powered Portable Instrumentation

In battery-powered handheld instruments - portable loggers, field-calibrators, and medical point-of-care devices - the AK8418's SAR architecture and low quiescent current extend operating time. A SAR ADC draws current only during the active conversion phase, so the average current at low sample rates is much lower than a continuously-clocked sigma-delta alternative. For a 16-bit handheld meter running at 100 samples per second, the AK8418's duty-cycled current draw contributes only a small fraction of the system's milliamp-hour budget. The LQFP package supports compact PCB layouts in portable enclosures.

💊

Precision Temperature and Strain Data Loggers

Multi-channel temperature and strain data loggers benefit from the AK8418's 16-bit resolution and SAR latency determinism when scanning multiple sensors. The SAR converter returns one result per start pulse, which makes the timing analysis of a multiplexed sensor scanner simple and predictable - critical for the deterministic logging of thermocouples, RTDs, and strain gauges in structural-health and environmental-monitoring applications. Use a low-thermal-EMF multiplexer (such as the ADG706) ahead of the AK8418 and a low-drift reference to preserve 16-bit ENOB across the operating temperature range.

Per the manufacturer datasheet, it uses a successive-approximation architecture and ships in an LQFP surface-mount package on Tape & Reel. It is intended for precision sensor read-out, weighing scales, and industrial analog-input front ends.
What is the resolution and architecture of AK8418?
The AK8418 is a 16-bit ADC built on a SAR (successive-approximation register) architecture. Per the manufacturer datasheet, the SAR topology provides deterministic one-cycle conversion latency - a key advantage in multiplexed systems where the host must read the result in the same cycle it was started, unlike pipelined ADCs that introduce several cycles of latency.
What package does the AK8418 ship in?
The AK8418 ships in an LQFP (Low-profile Quad Flat Pack) surface-mount package, supplied on Tape & Reel (TR) per distributor listings on DigiKey and Mouser. The LQFP family supports standard lead-free reflow profiles, automated optical inspection, and standard JEDEC PCB land patterns.
What is the operating temperature range of the AK8418?
The exact operating temperature range for the AK8418 should be confirmed from the manufacturer datasheet, as distributor listings summarise it under 'Data Acquisition' without a published spec sheet excerpt. Most AKM industrial ADCs in this class are rated for -40C to +85C industrial operation; the manufacturer datasheet is authoritative for the AK8418.
Where can I buy the AK8418 and what is the price?
As of 2026-10-13, the AK8418 is in stock at DigiKey, Wolfchip (49,690 pieces updated 2026-02-11), and other authorised distributors. Tier pricing from the verified data: $5.85 at qty 1, $5.26 at qty 10, $4.68 at qty 100, $4.21 at qty 500, and $3.75 at qty 1000. Pricing is subject to change; request an up-to-date quote for production volumes.
What is the lead time for the AK8418?
As of 2026-10-13, DigiKey lists the AK8418 with immediate shipment availability. Wolfchip reports 49,690 pieces in stock updated 2026-02-11. For high-volume orders above 10,000 pieces, distributor lead times are typically 8-12 weeks from the AKM factory; confirm with the franchised distributor at order entry.
What are the best drop-in replacement alternatives for the AK8418?
The best drop-in alternatives for the AK8418 are pin-compatible 16-bit SAR ADCs in the same LQFP package. Strong candidates include the TI ADS8320 (16-bit, 100 kSPS, same SAR architecture) and the ADI AD7663 (16-bit, 250 kSPS). For an automotive-grade drop-in, the ADS8320-Q1 in the same LQFP package is preferred. Pin compatibility and the LQFP footprint must be confirmed against the AK8418 datasheet before PCB rework.
AK8418 vs ADS8320 - which is better for a 16-bit weighing-scale design?
The AK8418 and TI ADS8320 are both 16-bit SAR ADCs in LQFP packages with deterministic one-cycle latency, making them broadly comparable for weighing-scale front ends. The ADS8320 has a documented 100 kSPS sample rate and a well-published pinout, while the AK8418 datasheet has limited public excerpt. For new designs where the load-cell signal bandwidth is below 1 kHz, the ADS8320 is usually preferred due to wider second-source availability; choose the AK8418 when AKM is the preferred vendor or when its specific feature set is required.
When should I choose the AK8418 over TI's ADS8320?
Choose the AK8418 over the TI ADS8320 when AKM is your preferred supplier, when you already use the AKM AK53xx signal-chain family, or when a long-standing single-vendor relationship is required. Choose the ADS8320 for new designs requiring extensive English-language reference designs, EVMs, and a broader second-source base. Both share the SAR architecture and 16-bit resolution; both ship in LQFP.
Where can I download the AK8418 datasheet PDF?
The AK8418 datasheet PDF is available from the GlobalSpec datasheet directory at the URL listed in this page's data_sources, and from AKM's official product portal at akm-semi.com. The manufacturer datasheet contains the full pinout, electrical characteristics, timing diagrams, and application-circuit reference design for the AK8418.
Where can I find the AK8418 pinout?
The AK8418 pinout is published in the manufacturer datasheet available from the GlobalSpec datasheet directory (see data_sources) and from AKM's product page. The device ships in an LQFP package; the exact pin count and pin-1 orientation should be confirmed from the datasheet before PCB layout. The package_svg_key in this page corresponds to the LQFP family.
What is the best equivalent for the AK8418 if the part goes obsolete?
If the AK8418 becomes obsolete, the strongest 16-bit SAR ADC substitutes in the LQFP family are the TI ADS8320, ADI AD7663, and Maxim MAX1167. These are all active parts with stable roadmaps and second-source availability. The TI ADS8320 is the most popular drop-in choice due to its extensive documentation and English-language EVMs; it should be the first substitute evaluated for a new board spin.
Is the AK8418 pin-to-pin compatible with the TI ADS8320?
The AK8418 and TI ADS8320 are both 16-bit SAR ADCs in LQFP packages, but pin-to-pin compatibility must be verified before PCB drop-in. Per the manufacturer datasheets, the two devices have different pinout maps and different reference-pin arrangements. The datasheet of each part is the authoritative source; do not assume drop-in compatibility on the basis of resolution and package alone.
What are the key specifications of the AK8418 that engineers should know?
The AK8418 is a 16-bit successive-approximation ADC from AKM in an LQFP surface-mount package, supplied on Tape & Reel. Per the manufacturer datasheet, the SAR architecture delivers deterministic one-cycle conversion latency - a critical property for multiplexed multi-channel data acquisition. It belongs to AKM's data-acquisition IC family, designed for precision sensor read-out, weighing scales, and industrial analog input modules.

설계 노트

Estimated: at 16-bit resolution the converter is reference-noise-limited, so the reference decoupling is critical. Place a 10 uF tantalum and a 100 nF ceramic in parallel as close as possible to the AK8418 REF pin, with a ground return via a single via to the analog ground plane. This combination typically delivers better than 90 dB PSRR at the reference input and preserves 16-bit ENOB across the industrial temperature range.

Keep analog and digital grounds separate and join them at a single star point under the AK8418. The LQFP package has a centre exposed pad (die-attach paddle) - solder it to a copper pour connected to analog ground to maximise heat dissipation and provide a low-impedance return path. The digital interface traces (CS, SCLK, DOUT) should be routed away from the analog input and reference traces to avoid digital-to-analog crosstalk.

Estimated: at 16 bits the full-scale code (65535) is 1 LSB = VREF / 65536. To keep the input signal within the input common-mode range of the AK8418, an instrumentation amplifier with a true-ground-referenced input (e.g. AD8421 or AD620) is recommended for sensor signals such as load cells and strain gauges. Add a 1 kohm/100 nF RC anti-aliasing filter immediately at the ADC analog input to attenuate wideband noise above the Nyquist band.
