Frequently Asked Questions
What is the resolution and sampling rate of the ADC121S021CISD?
The ADC121S021CISD provides 12-bit resolution with a maximum sampling rate of 200 ksps (kilo-samples per second). It achieves a maximum integral nonlinearity (INL) of ±0.5 LSB and differential nonlinearity (DNL) of ±0.5 LSB, making it suitable for precision measurement applications.
What interface does the ADC121S021CISD use and which microcontrollers is it compatible with?
The ADC121S021CISD uses a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface (SCLK, CS, DOUT) operating up to 10 MHz. It is compatible with virtually all modern microcontrollers including Arduino, STM32, PIC, and MSP430 families that support SPI communication, requiring only three digital I/O pins for complete operation.
What is the supply voltage range and power consumption of the ADC121S021CISD?
The ADC121S021CISD operates from a single supply voltage of 2.7V to 5.25V. Normal operating current is typically 1 mA at 3V supply, and the device features an automatic power-down mode between conversions, reducing average power consumption significantly in low-speed applications.
What package does the ADC121S021CISD come in and what are common alternatives?
The ADC121S021CISD is available in a compact 6-pin SOT-23 (R-PDSO-N6) surface-mount package, ideal for space-constrained PCB designs. Common alternatives from Texas Instruments include the ADC121S051 (500 ksps), ADC121S101 (1 Msps), and the multi-channel ADS7924 for applications requiring higher speed or additional input channels.
