The ADS8686S is a 16-channel data
acquisition (DAQ) system based on a dual simultaneous-sampling, 16-bit successive
approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADS8686S features a complete analog front-end for each channel with
an input clamp, 1-MΩ input impedance, independently programmable gain amplifier
(PGA), programmable
low-pass filter, and an ADC input driver. The device also features a low-drift,
precision reference with a buffer to drive the ADCs. A flexible digital interface
supporting serial, parallel, and byte communication enables the device to be used
with a variety of host controllers.
The ADS8686S can be configured to
accept ±10-V, ±5-V, or ±2.5-V bipolar inputs with a 20% overrange option using a
single 5-V supply. The high input impedance allows direct connection with sensors
and transformers, thus eliminating the need for external driver circuits. The ADS8686S has a highly configurable channel sequencer to reduce the
sequencing overhead on the backend controller or processor. The high performance and
accuracy, along with zero-latency conversions offered by this device make the ADS8686S a great choice for multiple industrial applications.
