LTC2335HLX-16 Overview
What is a SAR ADC? A successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter is a precision ADC architecture that uses a binary search algorithm to convert an analog input to a digital code over N clock cycles. SAR ADCs sit within the hierarchy of ADC types as the mid-speed, mid-resolution choice — faster than delta-sigma but lower power than pipelined — and they are favored for multiplexed multi-channel data acquisition because they settle quickly between conversions.
Key features of the LTC2335HLX-16 include 94.4 dB SNR, ±1 LSB INL guaranteed, no missing codes at 16 bits, an internal precision reference, wide common-mode input range, and flexible SoftSpan input ranges configurable per channel. The integrated 8-to-1 analog input multiplexer with channel-by-channel range selection makes it ideal for systems requiring dynamic range across multiple sensor or signal inputs.
From an architectural perspective, the LTC2335-16 family uses a charge-redistribution DAC array driven by a SAR engine, achieving 16-bit deterministic latency. The wide common-mode input range simplifies front-end signal conditioning when digitizing differential signals riding on high-voltage rails — a common requirement in industrial control, power-line monitoring, and instrumentation front ends.
Typical applications include multichannel data acquisition systems, programmable logic controllers, industrial process control, power-line monitoring, and instrumentation requiring wide dynamic range across multiple input channels. The 1 Msps throughput combined with eight input channels makes it attractive for simultaneous-sampling-adjacent designs and time-multiplexed high-voltage measurement systems.
When designing with this device, place the bypass capacitors directly adjacent to the analog and reference supply pins. Decouple the OVDD logic supply separately from the analog supplies, and respect the absolute maximum ratings on analog inputs to avoid latch-up.

Typical Applications
LTC2335HLX-16 is suitable for 6 applications: Multichannel Data Acquisition Systems, Industrial Process Control, Power-Line Monitoring, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Medical Monitoring and Diagnostic Equipment.
Multichannel Data Acquisition Systems
The LTC2335HLX-16 is purpose-built for multichannel data acquisition systems that monitor multiple analog signals with high common-mode offsets. Its integrated 8-to-1 multiplexer and 1 Msps SAR throughput allow sequential channel sampling at >100 kHz per channel rate, while 94.4 dB SNR preserves wide dynamic range across all channels. The wide common-mode input range eliminates the need for level-shifting front-ends in differential signals sitting on elevated rails, simplifying the analog chain. The 48-LQFP-EP footprint supports dense board layouts and provides good thermal performance at full sampling rate. The internal precision reference eliminates external reference drift concerns in long-duration acquisitions.
Recommended
Industrial Process Control
In industrial process control loops, the LTC2335HLX-16 digitizes analog signals from multiple sensors (pressure, temperature, flow, level) at 16-bit precision with 1 Msps aggregate throughput. The SoftSpan input ranges match common industrial signal levels (±5 V, ±10 V, 0-10 V) without external conditioning. The -40C to +125C H-grade temperature rating supports cabinet-mounted installations near power electronics and motor drives. The internal reference and per-channel range selection reduce calibration overhead in production. SPI-compatible serial interface simplifies connection to industrial MCUs like Cortex-M4 devices.
Recommended
Power-Line Monitoring
Power-line monitoring applications benefit from the LTC2335HLX-16's ±10.24 V differential input range, which directly digitizes voltage and current signals from PT/CT transducers without instrumentation amplifiers. The 94.4 dB SNR captures harmonics well beyond the 50th harmonic of 50/60 Hz mains, supporting advanced power-quality analysis. Wide common-mode tolerance handles the high common-mode voltages present in three-phase systems. Eight multiplexed channels monitor all three phase voltages and currents plus neutral in a single ADC. The 48-LQFP package withstands industrial thermal environments and supports conformal coating assemblies.
Recommended
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)
PLC analog input modules use the LTC2335HLX-16 to digitize field signals from thermocouples, RTDs, and 4-20 mA loops into a single 16-bit precision conversion channel. The 8-channel multiplexer supports 8 analog inputs per ADC, while multiple ADC chips can be cascaded with synchronized conversion for higher-channel-count modules. Per-channel SoftSpan ranges let one module accept mixed signal types — bipolar ±10 V, unipolar 0-10 V, and 4-20 mA current loops — without hardware reconfig. The H-grade temperature range handles the cabinet thermal environment near IGBT drivers.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
Bench-top and rack-mounted test and measurement instruments use the LTC2335HLX-16 for digitizing multiple test points at full 16-bit precision with 1 Msps aggregate throughput. The 94.4 dB SNR enables oscilloscope-grade dynamic range on repetitive waveforms captured by time-multiplexed channels. The internal precision reference reduces the calibration burden for bench instruments shipped to field service. Wide common-mode input range and differential inputs handle floating measurements relative to ground-referenced probes. The 48-LQFP package is easy to rework during development compared to BGA alternatives.
Recommended
Medical Monitoring and Diagnostic Equipment
Medical monitoring equipment uses the LTC2335HLX-16 to digitize patient-side analog signals (ECG, EEG, EMG, SpO2) and diagnostic instrument channels with true 16-bit fidelity. The 94.4 dB SNR preserves the low-amplitude detail in electrophysiological signals critical for automated analysis. The wide common-mode input range accepts electrode-referred signals with large DC offsets. Eight multiplexed inputs cover patient-monitor channel counts typically required for multi-lead ECG and EEG. The internal reference supports long-duration patient monitoring without recalibration drift.

Design Notes
Place the 0.1uF and 10uF bypass capacitors as close as possible to the analog and reference supply pins, with the 0.1uF unit nearest to the package. Use a separate analog ground plane tied to a single-point star ground to keep digital switching currents from corrupting the analog return path. Keep the analog input traces short and symmetric for the differential pair to preserve SNR at full throughput.
Drive the LTC2335HLX-16 analog inputs with the LT1358 or similar low-noise, fast-settling amplifier recommended in the datasheet typical application circuit. Use a wide-bandwidth driver if the input signal has high-frequency content beyond the bandwidth of the SAR aperture. Place a lowpass filter between the driver output and the ADC input to limit wideband noise below the Nyquist rate of 1 Msps.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum analog input voltage — the LTC2335HLX-16 digitizes up to ±10.24 V differential with appropriate supplies, but overvoltage transients can latch-up the input ESD structures. Ensure the CNV (convert) and CLK signals are routed away from analog input traces to minimize digital crosstalk into the SAR comparator. Avoid powering up without the analog supply present, which violates the supply-sequencing requirement stated in the datasheet absolute maximum ratings.
