MCP3004 in Microchip MCP3xxx ADC Family
The MCP3004 series from Microchip Technology consists of 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) that utilize successive approximation register (SAR) architecture. These devices feature a high-speed SPI serial interface, making them compatible with various microcontrollers and digital signal processors. Operating over a wide voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, the family is designed for low power consumption and high reliability in data acquisition systems where space and power efficiency are critical constraints.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Comparing specs that differ across variants.
| Part Number | Package | Stock |
|---|---|---|
| MCP3004-I/P (Microchip Technology) | DIP-14 | 474 |
| MCP3004-I/SL (Microchip Technology) | SOIC-14 | 849 |
The MCP3004 sub-family primarily varies by packaging and temperature grade rather than core silicon features. Common packages include 14-lead PDIP, SOIC, and TSSOP. While all variants maintain the same 10-bit SAR core, industrial (I) and extended (E) temperature versions are available to suit specific environmental requirements, ensuring consistent linearity and sampling performance from -40C to +125C depending on the specific part selection.
