ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 11: With CS low the falling R/C edge starts a conversion. If R/C
returns high at a critical point during the conversion it can create small
errors. For best results ensure that R/C returns high within 3µs after the
start of the conversion.
Note 12: As measured with fixed resistors shown in Figure 4. Adjustable to
zero with external potentiometer.
Note 13: Full-scale error is the worst-case of –FS or +FS untrimmed
deviation from ideal first and last code transitions, divided by the transition
voltage (not divided by the full-scale range) and includes the effect of
offset error.
Note 14: All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale ±10V input.
Note 15: Full-power bandwidth is defined as full-scale input frequency at
which a signal-to-(noise + distortion) degrades to 60dB or 10 bits of
accuracy.
Note 16: Recovers to specified performance after (2 • FS) input
overvoltage.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Conversion Details
Driving the Analog Inputs
The LTC1605 uses a successive approximation algorithm
and an internal sample-and-hold circuit to convert an
analog signal to a 16-bit or two byte parallel output. The
ADC is complete with a precision reference and an internal
clock. The control logic provides easy interface to microprocessors and DSPs. (Please refer to the Digital Interface
section for the data format.)
The nominal input range for the LTC1605 is ±10V or
(±4 • VREF) and the input is overvoltage protected to ±25V.
The input impedance is typically 20kΩ, therefore, it should
be driven with a low impedance source. Wideband noise
coupling into the input can be minimized by placing a
1000pF capacitor at the input as shown in Figure 2. An
NPO-type capacitor gives the lowest distortion. Place the
capacitor as close to the device input pin as possible. If an
amplifier is to be used to drive the input, care should be
taken to select an amplifier with adequate accuracy, linearity and noise for the application. The following list is a
summary of the op amps that are suitable for driving the
LTC1605. More detailed information is available in the
Linear Technology data books and LinearViewTM CD-ROM.
Conversion start is controlled by the CS and R/C inputs. At
the start of conversion the successive approximation
register (SAR) is reset. Once a conversion cycle has begun
it cannot be restarted.
During the conversion, the internal 16-bit capacitive DAC
output is sequenced by the SAR from the most significant
bit (MSB) to the least significant bit (LSB). Referring to
Figure 1, VIN is connected through the resistor divider to
the sample-and-hold capacitor during the acquire phase
and the comparator offset is nulled by the autozero switches.
In this acquire phase, a minimum delay of 2µs will provide
enough time for the sample-and-hold capacitor to acquire
the analog signal. During the convert phase, the autozero
switches open, putting the comparator into the compare
mode. The input switch switches CSAMPLE to ground,
injecting the analog input charge onto the summing junction. This input charge is successively compared with the
binary-weighted charges supplied by the capacitive DAC.
Bit decisions are made by the high speed comparator. At
the end of a conversion, the DAC output balances the VIN
input charge. The SAR contents (a 16-bit data word) that
represents the VIN are loaded into the 16-bit output latches.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LTC1605 has an on-chip, temperature compensated,
curvature corrected, bandgap reference, which is factory
trimmed to 2.50V. The full-scale range of the ADC is equal
to (±4 • VREF) or nominally ±10V. The output of the
reference is connected to the input of a unity-gain buffer
through a 4k resistor (see Figure 3). The input to the buffer
or the output of the reference is available at REF (Pin 3).
The internal reference can be overdriven with an external
reference if more accuracy is needed. The buffer output
drives the internal DAC and is available at CAP (Pin 4). The
CAP pin can be used to drive a steady DC load of less than
2mA. Driving an AC load is not recommended because it
can cause the performance of the converter to degrade.

Offset and Gain Adjustments
The LTC1605 offset and full-scale errors have been trimmed
at the factory with the external resistors shown in Figure 4.
This allows for external adjustment of offset and full scale
in applications where absolute accuracy is important. See
Figure 5 for the offset and gain trim circuit. First adjust the
offset to zero by adjusting resistor R3. Apply an input
voltage of –152.6mV (– 0.5LSB) and adjust R3 so the code
is changing between 1111 1111 1111 1111 and 0000 0000
0000 0000. The gain error is trimmed by adjusting resistor
R4. An input voltage of 9.999542V (+FS – 1.5LSB) is

Internal Clock
The ADC has an internal clock that is trimmed to achieve
a typical conversion time of 7µs. No external adjustments
are required and, with the typical acquisition time of 1µs,
throughput performance of 100ksps is assured.
Timing and Control
Conversion start and data read are controlled by two
digital inputs: CS and R/C. To start a conversion and put
the sample-and-hold into the hold mode bring CS and
R/C low for no less than 40ns. Once initiated it cannot be
restarted until the conversion is complete. Converter
status is indicated by the BUSY output and this is low while
the conversion is in progress.
There are two modes of operation. The first mode is shown
in Figure 8. The digital input R/C is used to control the start
of conversion. CS is tied low. When R/C goes low the
sample-and-hold goes into the hold mode and a conversion is started. BUSY goes low and stays low during the
conversion and will go back high after the conversion has
been completed and the internal output shift registers
have been updated. R/C should remain low for no less than
40ns. During the time R/C is low the digital outputs are in
a Hi-Z state. R/C should be brought back high within 3µs
after the start of the conversion to ensure that no errors
occur in the digitized result. The second mode, shown in
Figure 9, uses the CS signal to control the start of a
conversion and the reading of the digital output. In this
mode the R/C input signal should be brought low no less
than 10ns before the falling edge of CS. The minimum
pulse width for CS is 40ns. When CS falls, BUSY goes low
and will stay low until the end of the conversion. BUSY will
go high after the conversion has been completed. The new
data is valid when CS is brought back low again to initiate

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
a read. Again it is recommended that both R/C and CS
return high within 3µs after the start of the conversion.
Output Data
The output data can be read as a 16-bit word or it can be
read as two 8-bit bytes. The format of the output data is
two’s complement. The digital input pin BYTE is used to
control the two byte read. With the BYTE pin low the first
eight MSBs are output on the D15 to D8 pins and the eight
LSBs are output on the D7 to D0 pins. When the BYTE pin
is taken high the eight LSBs replace the eight MSBs (Figure
10).
Dynamic Performance
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) test techniques are used to
test the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise at
the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine
wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm, the ADC’s spectral content can be examined for
frequencies outside the fundamental. Figure 11 shows a
typical LTC1605 FFT plot which yields a SINAD of 87.5dB
and THD of – 102dB.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
The Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD) is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency to the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the A/D output. The output is band limited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 11 shows a typical SINAD of 87.5dB
with a 100kHz sampling rate and a 1kHz input.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental
itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency
12
band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD is
expressed as:
THD = 20log
√V22 + V32 + V42 ... + VN2
V1
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics.
Board Layout, Power Supplies and Decoupling
Wire wrap boards are not recommended for high resolution or high speed A/D converters. To obtain the best
performance from the LTC1605, a printed circuit board is
required. Layout for the printed circuit board should
ensure the digital and analog signal lines are separated as
much as possible. In particular, care should be taken not
to run any digital track alongside an analog signal track or
underneath the ADC. The analog input should be screened
by AGND.
Figures 12 through 15 show a layout for a suggested
evaluation circuit which will help obtain the best performance from the 16-bit ADC. Pay particular attention to the
design of the analog and digital ground planes. The DGND
pin of the LTC1605 can be tied to the analog ground plane.
Placing the bypass capacitor as close as possible to the
power supply, the reference and reference buffer output is
very important. Low impedance common returns for
these bypass capacitors are essential to low noise operation of the ADC, and the foil width for these tracks should
be as wide as possible. Also, since any potential difference
in grounds between the signal source and ADC appears as
an error voltage in series with the input signal, attention
should be paid to reducing the ground circuit impedance
as much as possible. The digital output latches and the
onboard sampling clock have been placed on the digital
ground plane. The two ground planes are tied together at
the power supply ground connection.
