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.

Mnemonic Description
1
VDD
Power Supply Input. The VDD 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
VIN
Analog Input. The single-ended analog input range is from 0 V to VDD.
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.
