About this manual

The AD7985 is a 16‑bit successive‑approximation ADC offering up to 2.5 MSPS throughput in turbo mode and 2.0 MSPS in low‑power mode. It features an internal 4.096 V reference, low power dissipation (15.5 mW at 2.5 MSPS with internal reference), and a versatile 1.8‑2.7 V digital I/O supply. The device is supplied in a 20‑lead LFCSP package and operates from –40 °C to +85 °C.

The datasheet provides detailed specifications, timing diagrams, pin descriptions, layout recommendations, and application information for high‑speed data‑acquisition, communications, ATE, and medical instrumentation. It also describes daisy‑chain capability, busy‑indicator operation, and power‑supply decoupling guidelines for optimal performance.
