Technical Specifications

The ADC08831IMM operates with a single 5V power supply. It utilizes a successive approximation conversion technique to achieve an 8-bit resolution. The serial data output allows for easy interface with microcontrollers and other digital systems. The built-in sample-and-hold function ensures accurate conversion of rapidly changing input signals. The 8-channel multiplexer allows the user to select one of eight analog inputs for conversion. The device typically consumes very little power, making it suitable for portable applications. Conversion time is usually around 70 microseconds. The input voltage range is typically 0V to 5V. It comes in a SOIC package which is suitable for automated assembly processes.
