PIN CONFIGURATION AND FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
NOTES
1. THE EXPOSED PAD IS NOT CONNECTED
INTERNALLY. FOR INCREASED
RELIABILITY OF THE SOLDER JOINTS
AND FOR MAXIMUM THERMAL CAPABILITY,
SOLDER THE EXPOSED PAD TO THE
SUBSTRATE, GND.

Pin No. Mnemonic Description
1 V
DD
Power Supply Input. The V
DD
range is from 2.09 V to 5.25 V. Decouple this supply pin to GND. Typical recom-
mended capacitor values are 10 µF and 0.1 µF.
2
V
IN
Analog Input. The single-ended analog input range is from 0 V to V
DD
.
3 REGCAP Decoupling Capacitor Pin for Voltage Output from Internal Low Dropout (LDO) Regulator. Decouple this output
pin separately to GND using a 1 μF capacitor. The voltage at this pin is 1.8 V typical.
4 GND Ground. This pin is the ground reference point for all circuitry on the AD7091. The analog input signal should
be referred to this GND voltage.
5
CONVST
Conversion Start. Active low, edge triggered logic input. The falling edge of
CONVST
places the track-and-hold
into hold mode and initiates a conversion.
6
CS
Chip Select. Active low logic input. The serial bus is enabled when
CS
is held low; in this mode
CS
is used to frame
the output data on the SPI bus.
7 SCLK Serial Clock. This pin acts as the serial clock input.
8 SDO Serial Data Output. The conversion output data is supplied to this pin as a serial data stream. The bits are
clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. The data is provided MSB first.
9 EPAD Exposed Pad. The exposed pad is not connected internally. For increased reliability of the solder joints and for
maximum thermal capability, solder the exposed pad to the substrate, GND.
