Yes, the AD7621ASTZ is RoHS compliant. It also meets REACH compliance requirements, as indicated in the product documentation from Analog Devices.
What is the difference between AD7621ASTZ and AD7621ACPZ?
The AD7621ASTZ is in a 48-lead LQFP package, while the AD7621ACPZ is in a 48-lead LFCSP package. Both are 16-bit, 3 MSPS SAR ADCs with similar specifications, but the package difference affects PCB layout and thermal performance.
Can AD7621ASTZ be used in battery-powered devices?
Yes, the AD7621ASTZ is suitable for battery-powered devices due to its low power consumption of 45 mW at full speed and less than 1 mW in power-down mode. Its small package also helps in compact designs.
What is the best drop-in replacement for AD7621ASTZ?
The AD7621ASTZRL is a drop-in replacement for the AD7621ASTZ, as it is the tape-and-reel version of the same device. The AD7621ACPZ is a functional equivalent but has a different package (LFCSP), so it is not a drop-in replacement.

Selection Guide

Choose the AD7621ASTZ when you need a high-speed, 16-bit SAR ADC with a fully differential input and a small LQFP package. It is ideal for applications requiring 3 MSPS sampling, such as medical imaging, high-speed data acquisition, and vibration analysis. If you need a tape-and-reel option for automated assembly, select the AD7621ASTZRL. If you prefer a different package (LFCSP) with similar performance, consider the AD7621ACPZ, but note that it is not pin-compatible with the LQFP version. For lower power or lower speed applications, alternatives like the AD7980BRMZ (1 MSPS) or AD7091R-2BRUZ (12-bit) may be more suitable. Always verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.

  • Fully differential input (vs AD7091R-2BRUZ)
  • Lower power consumption (vs AD7606BSTZ)

Design Notes

Provide a clean, low-noise 2.5 V supply for AVDD and DVDD. Use a low-dropout regulator (LDO) with output noise below 10 Β΅Vrms to avoid degrading ADC performance. Decouple each supply pin with a 10 Β΅F ceramic capacitor and a 0.1 Β΅F capacitor placed as close to the pin as possible.

For optimal performance, use a solid ground plane and separate analog and digital ground areas, connecting them at a single point. Route analog input traces away from digital signals to minimize coupling. Place the reference decoupling capacitor (10 Β΅F) close to the REF pin and connect REFGND directly to the analog ground plane.

Ensure the analog input source impedance is low (below 100 Ξ©) to avoid sampling errors. Use a driver amplifier with sufficient bandwidth and low output impedance. Avoid exceeding the absolute maximum ratings on the input pins, and ensure the reference voltage is stable and within the specified range (2.4 V to 2.6 V).
