Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The AD7788ARMZ is a viable functional replacement candidate for the AD7788BRMZ, as both parts share the same core sigma-delta ADC architecture, resolution, and MSOP-10 package. Designers should validate the specified operating temperature range and supply voltage tolerances against the target application before final qualification.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ?
The AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ are both 16-bit sigma-delta ADCs from Analog Devices in 10-lead MSOP packages. The primary difference is the specified temperature grade: the AD7788ARMZ is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C, while the AD7788BRMZ is specified over the extended industrial temperature range of −40°C to +105°C. Both share the same functional core, pinout, and package outline.
Are the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ pin-compatible?
Yes. Both devices are offered in the same 10-lead MSOP (RM) package with identical pin functions, so they are pin-compatible and share the same PCB land pattern.
Can the AD7788ARMZ be used as a drop-in replacement for the AD7788BRMZ?
Functionally and pin-wise they are interchangeable, but the AD7788ARMZ is only specified to +85°C while the AD7788BRMZ is specified to +105°C. If the application's operating temperature stays within −40°C to +85°C, the AD7788ARMZ can serve as a replacement; for operation above +85°C, the AD7788BRMZ must be retained.
What are the key specifications shared by the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ?
Both are 16-bit, low-power, sigma-delta ADCs with a single differential input, on-chip programmable gain amplifier, and internal oscillator. They operate from a 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply, provide a serial SPI-compatible interface, and are housed in a 10-lead MSOP package.
Do the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ differ in resolution or accuracy?
No. Both devices provide 16-bit resolution and use the same ADC core and gain stages. The datasheet specifications for resolution, gain error, and offset are equivalent; the distinguishing parameter is the rated operating temperature range.
Which part should be selected for an application operating above +85°C?
The AD7788BRMZ should be selected, because it is specified over the extended industrial range of −40°C to +105°C, whereas the AD7788ARMZ is only specified to +85°C.
Are the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ RoHS compliant?
Yes. Both the AD7788BRMZ and AD7788ARMZ are RoHS-compliant parts, as indicated by the "Z" suffix in the ordering code, which denotes lead-free, RoHS-compliant packaging per Analog Devices ordering conventions.
