LTC2372CUH-18 Visão geral
An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is a mixed-signal integrated circuit that converts a real-world continuous analog voltage into a discrete digital code proportional to the input. Within the broader signal-chain taxonomy, the LTC2372-18 belongs to the successive-approximation-register ADC family, which sits under precision data converters (alongside delta-sigma and pipeline ADCs) and ultimately the data-acquisition / power-management IC hierarchy. SAR ADCs are favored when applications need high throughput (hundreds of kSPS to multi-MSPS) with low latency and no pipeline delay, at 16- to 20-bit resolution.
Key features include a configurable low-crosstalk 8-channel input multiplexer accepting fully-differential, pseudo-differential unipolar, and pseudo-differential bipolar inputs; a high-speed SPI-compatible serial interface supporting 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic; a sequencer with a depth of 16; and true 18-bit performance with no missing codes. The single 5 V supply operation simplifies power-tree design, while an internal reference buffer keeps the reference pin stable during single-shot conversions.
Architecturally, the LTC2372-18 combines a high-performance 18-bit capacitive SAR core with an integrated input MUX and an on-chip reference/buffer, eliminating the need for an external low-noise reference and ADC-driver buffer in many precision applications. The combination of 100 dB SNR and 500 kSPS throughput targets instrumentation, medical imaging front-ends, and industrial process control.
Typical applications include multi-channel data-acquisition systems, medical imaging front-ends, precision industrial process control, vibration analysis, and automatic test equipment (ATE). The wide input-range flexibility also supports direct connection to bridge sensors, thermocouples, and RTD front-ends through simple external instrumentation amplifiers.
When laying out the PCB, keep analog and digital ground returns separated under the ADC and join them at a single point near the exposed pad; bypass the 5 V supply with a 1 µF ceramic plus a 10 µF bulk capacitor placed within 5 mm of the AVDD pin. To minimize channel-to-channel crosstalk at 500 kSPS, route the 8 analog inputs with matched impedance and keep them away from the CNV/MCLK/SCK digital traces.

Aplicações típicas
LTC2372CUH-18 é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Multi-Channel Data Acquisition, Medical Imaging Front-End, Precision Industrial Process Control, Vibration & Acoustic Analysis, Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), Spectrum & Signal Analyzer IF Digitizer.
Multi-Channel Data Acquisition
The LTC2372CUH-18's integrated 8-channel low-crosstalk input MUX and 500 kSPS throughput make it ideal for multi-channel data-acquisition cards at the heart of industrial and laboratory systems. Throughput depends on aggregate sampling across all 8 channels - at 500 kSPS the per-channel rate is 62.5 kSPS, well-matched to process-control loop rates. With 100 dB SNR and 18-bit no-missing-codes performance it preserves dynamic range from strain-gauge, RTD, and thermocouple front-ends without downstream averaging.
Recomendado
Medical Imaging Front-End
Ultrasound, CT, and PET front-end signal chains demand high dynamic range simultaneously with low-latency conversion per channel. The LTC2372CUH-18's 100 dB fully-differential SNR plus integrated reference buffer eliminates drift between conversions, preserving small-signal integrity in imaging chains. The configurable MUX allows 4 fully-differential instrumentation channels per chip, with 500 kSPS aggregate throughput supporting sub-beamformer-rate oversampling. Per the Analog Devices datasheet, low channel-to-channel crosstalk makes it suitable when imaging heads multiplex multiple probe elements through one ADC.
Recomendado
Precision Industrial Process Control
PLC and DCS analog input modules with 4-20 mA / 0-10 V conditioning need 18-bit accuracy at channel-update rates that match control loop bandwidths. The LTC2372CUH-18's 8 input channels through one ADC eliminate external multiplexers in 8-slot subsystems, while the SPI-compatible interface to 1.8 V - 5 V logic connects directly to most modern microcontrollers and FPGAs. Tight INL (±2.75 LSB) and no missing codes at 18-bit ensure calibration drift stays within process tolerances; the integrated 20 ppm/°C reference simplifies temperature-coast design.
Recomendado
Vibration & Acoustic Analysis
Mechanical vibration analyzers, modal-test rigs, and acoustic measurement instruments demand 18-bit dynamic range with multi-channel synchronous sampling at audio-bandwidth rates. The LTC2372CUH-18's 500 kSPS throughput and 100 dB SNR capture both envelope and transient details of accelerometer and microphone signals. Through its MUX, eight IEPE-sensor front-ends can be digitized by a single chip, with the SPI-compatible serial interface stream-multiplexing into a small FPGA or DSP for FFT processing.
Recomendado
Automatic Test Equipment (ATE)
Semiconductor ATE and board-test systems need 18-bit resolution at hundreds of kSPS per channel for parametric measurement (V/I/R). The LTC2372CUH-18's 500 kSPS, 8-channel MUX and built-in precision reference let one chip handle multiple DUT pins with sub-100 µV resolution. SPI-compatible 1.8 V - 5 V logic interfaces directly to PXI/USB backplane controllers, and 100 dB SNR supports low-distortion AC stimulus measurement (THD+N) common in audio and signal-chain testers.
Recomendado
Spectrum & Signal Analyzer IF Digitizer
Wideband spectrum and signal analyzers convert IF stages in the 1-10 MHz range using 18-bit high-throughput ADCs. The LTC2372CUH-18's 500 kSPS rate handles narrow-band analysis up to ~200 kHz, while its 100 dB SNR preserves analyzer dynamic range to measure spurs and intermodulation products. Combining the ADC with an external low-noise IF preamp simplifies the IF section; the integrated reference removes a major source of gain drift across sweep duration.

Notas de projeto
Estimated: For the 32-QFN (5x5) LTC2372CUH-18, route analog inputs with controlled 50-ohm impedance and a continuous ground-reference plane. Place a 1 µF X7R ceramic plus a 10 µF tantalum within 5 mm of the AVDD pin and replicate the bypass cluster for OVDD. Dedicate a single solid analog ground return from the exposed pad to the analog star-point; do not split the plane beneath the device.
Channel-to-channel crosstalk on the MUX can couple digital switching into an adjacent analog input at full 500 kSPS throughput. Keep CNV, SCKA/SCKB, and SDOUT traces well away from AINx traces; route them on opposite sides of the package. Add a 10 kΩ/100 nF RC anti-alias filter on each AINx line at the connector side of the MUX, matching corner frequencies across all 8 channels to within ±5%.
Estimated: When the user mode is configured for pseudo-differential bipolar inputs, the negative input must be driven to the correct common-mode voltage (typically REFIN) and not left floating - a floating pseudo-differential negative input induces non-linearity and degrades SNR. Always check the datasheet mode configuration bits (CFG0/CFG1) match the actual analog front-end topology. Avoid toggling CHAIN faster than the BUSY falling edge; the sequencer is re-armed on this event and unstable timing drops conversions.
Solder the exposed thermal pad directly to the analog ground plane using an array of thermal vias (4-9 vias, 0.3 mm diameter) to dissipate internal reference heat. Internal reference drift of 20 ppm/°C max means that a 10 °C temperature rise produces only ~0.4 LSB error at 18 bits, but enclosed chassis without airflow can push the die temperature 30-40 °C above ambient - keep heat-generating digital devices away from the ADC.
