Renesas Electronics Corporation unveiled the first programmable 14-bit SAR ADC (Successive-Approximation Register Analog-Digital Converter) in the industry, along with new AnalogPAK ICs that are automotive-qualified and have lower power consumption.
Renesas’ GreenPAK Family of Programmable Mixed-Signal Matrix products includes AnalogPAK devices. These affordable, NVM programmable devices allow developers to incorporate several system functions while reducing the number of components, board space, and power consumption. Stand-alone discrete circuits and mixed-signal standard products can be functionally replaced by GreenPAK and AnalogPAK integrated circuits.

New AnalogPAK SLG47011 – Low Power Device with 14-bit SAR ADC
The new SLG47011 AnalogPAK device from Renesas offers programmable analog integrated circuits a new level of performance. Programmable multichannel 14-bit SAR ADC with Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) is one of its many digital and analog functionalities.
Additionally, the SLG47011 features user-defined, adaptable power-saving modes for every macrocell, allowing designers to turn off certain blocks in sleep mode and cut power usage to µA.
An MCU can be offloaded or its performance increased using the SLG47011. It can also be used to replace a sophisticated analog front-end (AFE) when combined with an MCU. The SLG47011 supports measurement, data processing, logic control, and data output, among other essential operations.
Key Paraments of SLG47011
- Vdd = 1.71 to 3.6 V
- SAR ADC: up to 14-bit, up to 2.35 Msps in 8-bit mode
- PGA: six amplifier configurations, rail-to-rail input/output, 1x – 64x gain
- DAC: 12 bit, 333 ksps
- Hardware Math block for multiplication, addition, subtraction and division operations
- Flexible 4096 words Memory table block
- Oscillators: 2/10 kHz and 20/40 MHz
- Analog temperature sensor
- Highest number of highly configurable Counter/Delay blocks
- I2C and SPI communication interfaces
- Available in a tiny 16-pin QFN 2.0 mm x 2.0 mm x 0.55 mm, 0.4 mm pitch package
In addition to the SLG47011, Renesas is introducing two other AnalogPAK devices, the cost-optimized SLG47001/3, and the automotive-qualified SLG47004-A.
SLG47001/3 AnalogPAK Devices
The SLG47001 and SLG47003 enable the implementation of precise measurement systems with a low price point and a very compact package to address applications such as gas sensors, power meters, measurement equipment, servers, wearables, industrial robots, industrial and smart home sensor modules.
- Two ultra-low offset op-amps – 9 µV (max.)
- Two 10-bit digital rheostats
- Six-channel sampling comparator
- Analog switch
- Voltage reference
- 59-bytes pattern generator
- 2k/10k/25MHz oscillators
- Fully configurable blocks: LUTs, flip-flops, shift registers, timers, counters, delays
SLG47004-A AnalogPAK Device
With the addition of automotive qualification Grade 1 for applications including entertainment, navigation, chassis and body electronics, automotive display clusters, and more, the SLG47004-A offers the same capability as the SLG47004 devices. The temperature range that the new devices support is -40°C to 125°C.
New AnalogPAK Devices Demonstrated at the electronica Trade Fair November 12-15. Renesas will showcase the new devices at electronica in Munich – Hall B4, Stand #179.
Device Availability
All of the new AnalogPAK devices are available today from Renesas and its authorized distributors, along with customized development kits. The SLG47011 comes in a 2.0 x 2.0 mm 16-pin STQFN package.
The SLG47001 is packaged in a 2.0 mm x 3.0 mm 20-pin STQFN, while the SLG47003 comes in a 3.0 mm x 3.0 mm 24-pin STQFN. The SLG47004-A is available in a 4.0 mm x 4.0 mm 24-pin TQFN.
Key Comments
“We have shipped billions of GreenPAK and AnalogPAK devices to thousands of customers around the world,” said Davin Lee, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Analog and Connectivity Group at Renesas. “We have been asked to provide even more resources along with higher resolution analog functionality, and we have answered both of these requests with the SLG47011 device. We are eager to see this product appear in a multitude of products and applications.”
