Product Overview
Analogic ADC4356 16-Bit Buffered A/D Converter Module with the Full Block Diagram Printed on the Lid
Condition
Used, clean, and in good condition. Shows typical signs of prior use but remains functional and well preserved. The shielded metal case is bright with only light handling marks. The top label is fully legible and reads ADC4356 16-BIT A/D CONVERTER with the ANALOGIC logo, Made in U.S.A., and case marking B11-3336 REV 0, above RANGE and OFFSET adjustment markers; there is one small nick in the printed black panel near the top edge. The underside is black epoxy with rows of straight, bright gold-plated pins on all four sides, some pin positions left open, and no solder or flux residue visible on the pins. Three small paper labels remain on one case side, hand marked MOD 1, M4C, and a partly legible number that reads 961 90335 or 981 90335 - the second digit does not resolve between a 6 and an 8 in the photo. Against the ruler the module measures approximately 11.5 cm by 9 cm, roughly 4.5 by 3.5 inches. Four units in stock.

Product Overview
The Analogic ADC4356 is a buffered 16-bit analog-to-digital converter module built for low noise, low distortion, and stable high-speed conversion. It offers 16-bit resolution with no missing codes, a buffered 7 µs conversion time, and accepts 0 to 10 V unipolar or ±5 V bipolar analog input. Every signal block is silkscreened right on the case lid: input buffer, summing and gain stages, the internal 16-bit DAC, the ADC core, and the logic and timing control section, with many of the pins named along the edges (TRIGGER, EOC, EXT. GAIN, EXT. OFFSET, REF IN, REF OUT, ANA IN, ANA GND, DIG GND, V+, V-, +5V, the B1 through B16 data bits, O/U, HE, and LE); a number of pad positions, including some populated pins, carry no printed name. It is part of the ADC435x family, TTL/CMOS-compatible on inputs and outputs, and shielded electromagnetically and electrostatically on all sides.

Applications
- Instrument technician repairing a legacy data acquisition chassis that expects an ADC435x module in its original socket
- Audio restorer rebuilding a professional digital recording or encoding chain around 16-bit conversion
- Test engineer keeping an older ATE rack running without redesigning the analog front end
- Lab or spectroscopy builder who needs a shielded, self-contained 16-bit converter instead of a bare chip and a board layout problem
Frequently Asked Questions
What condition is this ADC4356 in?
Used, clean, and in good condition, suitable for integration into test or operational systems. The case is bright, the label is fully readable, the gold pins are straight, and three small hand-marked paper tags remain on one side of the case.
What is actually printed on the module?
The top label carries the ADC4356 name, the ANALOGIC logo, Made in U.S.A., the case marking B11-3336 REV 0, RANGE and OFFSET adjustment markers, and a complete functional block diagram with many of the pins named along the edges. Several pad positions, including a few populated pins, carry no printed name, so the case alone is not a full pinout - confirm it against the datasheet before powering anything up.
What makes the ADC4356 different from other ADC435x models?
The ADC4356 is the buffered version, with a 7 µs conversion time. By contrast the ADC4355 is 100 kHz sampling and the ADC4357 supports 200 kHz throughput.
What input ranges does it take, and how accurate is it?
It accepts 0 to +10 V unipolar or ±5 V bipolar analog input, with 16-bit resolution, ±½ LSB differential nonlinearity, a typical 92 dB signal-to-noise ratio, and total harmonic distortion below -100 dB at 1 kHz. The case labels separate V+, V-, and +5V supply pins; the exact supply rails are not confirmed here, so verify them against the datasheet before use.
Why buy one ADC4356 here instead of a multi-unit lot elsewhere?
Because one converter module is usually all a repair or a prototype needs. We sell the exact quantity you want, one or two pieces, instead of forcing a lot of ten or fifty. Shipping is $8 flat rate and free over $28, and orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
Analogic printed the entire signal path on the lid, from the input buffer to the logic and timing control, back when a module was meant to be understood at the bench and not just plugged in. Match those pin names to your board and this 16-bit converter goes back to turning volts into numbers for you.
