Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The AD7890ARZ-10 and AD7890AR-4 are functionally compatible 12-bit data acquisition systems in the same 24-lead SOIC package, sharing identical architecture, channel count, and interface. The primary distinction is conversion speed, with the AD7890ARZ-10 offering a faster 10 µs conversion time versus the AD7890AR-4. Designers should validate timing margins and throughput requirements before substituting, but the parts are strong functional replacement candidates.

Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | AD7890ARZ-10 | AD7890AR-4 | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of ADC Input Channels | 8 | 8 | Both devices provide the same 8-channel multiplexed input architecture, so channel count is not a differentiator for substitutability. |
| Resolution | 12 bit | 12 bit | Identical 12-bit resolution means both parts offer the same nominal measurement precision. |
| Input Voltage Range | ±10 V | ±10 V | The input span determines the analog signal compatibility; both accept the same ±10 V bipolar range. |
| Sampling Rate | 105 kSPS | 105 kSPS | Throughput must meet the system's acquisition timing; both parts share the same maximum sampling rate. |
| Supply Voltage | 5 V | 5 V | Supply compatibility is essential for drop-in replacement; both operate from a single 5 V supply. |
| Interface Type | Serial (SPI-compatible) | Serial (SPI-compatible) | The digital interface must match the host controller; both use a serial interface for data readout. |
| Package / Mounting | 24-Lead SOIC (Surface Mount) | 24-Lead SOIC (Surface Mount) | Package and footprint must be compatible for board-level substitution; both are 24-lead SOIC surface-mount devices. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40 °C to +85 °C | -40 °C to +85 °C | The temperature range must cover the application environment; both are specified over the industrial range. |
| RoHS Compliance | RoHS Compliant | Non-RoHS (legacy) | RoHS status affects regulatory compliance and solder process compatibility; the Z suffix indicates a lead-free/RoHS part while the non-Z variant is legacy. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the key differences between the AD7890ARZ-10 and AD7890AR-4?
Both are 8-channel, 12-bit successive-approximation ADCs from Analog Devices in a 24-lead SOIC package, but they differ in specified throughput and input range. The AD7890ARZ-10 is specified for a 10 µs conversion time (100 kSPS class) with a ±10 V input range, while the AD7890AR-4 is specified for a 5 µs conversion time (200 kSPS class) with a ±5 V input range. The "Z" suffix on the AD7890ARZ-10 denotes RoHS-compliant lead-free construction, whereas the AD7890AR-4 is the non-RoHS version.
Are the AD7890ARZ-10 and AD7890AR-4 pin-compatible?
Yes. Both devices are offered in the same 24-lead SOIC (R-24) package with an identical pinout, so they are pin-compatible. However, pin compatibility does not guarantee functional interchangeability because the analog input range and conversion timing differ.
Can the AD7890ARZ-10 be used as a drop-in replacement for the AD7890AR-4?
Not unconditionally. Although the pinout and package match, the AD7890ARZ-10 has a ±10 V input range versus ±5 V for the AD7890AR-4, and its conversion time is 10 µs versus 5 µs. The replacement is only valid if the system's analog signal span, reference, and timing budget are revalidated against the AD7890ARZ-10 datasheet.
What is the resolution and architecture of these AD7890 devices?
Both the AD7890ARZ-10 and AD7890AR-4 are 12-bit successive-approximation register (SAR) ADCs with an 8-channel input multiplexer, a track-and-hold amplifier, and an on-chip reference, providing 12-bit resolution over their respective input ranges.
How do the input voltage ranges of the two parts compare?
The AD7890ARZ-10 provides a bipolar ±10 V analog input range, while the AD7890AR-4 provides a bipolar ±5 V analog input range. This difference directly affects the LSB size and the required signal conditioning in the application.
Do the AD7890ARZ-10 and AD7890AR-4 differ in RoHS compliance?
Yes. The AD7890ARZ-10 carries the "Z" suffix indicating RoHS-compliant, lead-free construction, while the AD7890AR-4 is the standard non-RoHS version. This matters for procurement and regulatory compliance in markets requiring lead-free parts.
What interface and supply requirements do these converters share?
Both parts use a serial interface for data output and control, operate from a single +5 V supply with a separate +5 V analog supply, and include an on-chip reference. Designers should confirm exact supply tolerances and interface timing from the respective Analog Devices datasheets before finalizing a design.
