OP8666 Analog to Digital Conversion

The OP8666 uses four (4) microcontroller internal ADC units, responsible for the conversion of 16 analog channels.
The OP8666 provides eight (8) 16-bit differential mode channels and eight (8) 12-bit single ended channels.

Each ADC channel has a pre-buffer stage, which sets high impedance to the input, while increasing the input voltage range to ±10V which is commonly used by most HIL simulators and high accuracy sensors.
Simultaneous sampling is possible only on channels belonging to different ADC units.
The 16-bit channels can convert at 1.1Msps, while the 12-bit channels can convert at 3.5Msps, when only a single channel of a particular ADC unit is used.

The following table provides essential information regarding the possible configurations of the ADC units.
