The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 are 300ksps, sampling
12-bit A/D converters that draw only 75mW from single
5V or ±5V supplies. These easy-to-use devices come
complete with 600ns sample-and-holds, precision references and internally trimmed clocks. Unipolar and bipolar conversion modes provide flexibility for various applications. They are built with LTBiCMOSTM switched capacitor technology.
These devices have 25ppm/°C (max) internal references.
The LTC1273 converts 0V to 5V unipolar inputs from a
single 5V supply. The LTC1275/LTC1276 convert ±2.5V
and ±5V respectively from ±5V supplies. Maximum DC
specifications include ±1/2LSB INL, ±3/4LSB DNL and
25ppm/°C full scale drift over temperature. Outstanding
AC performance includes 70dB S/(N + D) and 77dB THD
at the Nyquist input frequency of 150kHz.

The internal clock is trimmed for 2.7µs maximum conversion time. The clock automatically synchronizes to each
sample command eliminating problems with asynchronous clock noise found in competitive devices. A high
speed parallel interface eases connections to FIFOs, DSPs
and microprocessors.

The ● indicates specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range; all other limits and typicals TA = 25°C.
Note 1: Absolute maximum ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground with DGND and
AGND wired together (unless otherwise noted).
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below VSS (ground for
LTC1273) or above VDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This
product can handle input currents greater than 60mA below VSS (ground
for LTC1273) or above VDD without latch-up.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below VSS (ground for
LTC1273) they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle
input currents greater than 60mA below VSS (ground for LTC1273)
without latch-up. These pins are not clamped to VDD.
Note 5: VDD = 5V (VSS = – 5V for LTC1275/LTC1276), 300kHz at 70°C and
250kHz at 125°C, tr = tf = 5ns unless otherwise specified.
ns
Note 6: Linearity, offset and full scale specifications apply for unipolar and
bipolar modes.
Note 7: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 8: Bipolar offset (LTC1275/LTC1276) is the different voltage
measured from – 0.5LSB when the LTC1275/LTC1276 output code flickers
between 0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111.
Note 9: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 10: Recommended operating conditions.
Note11: AIN must not exceed VDD or fall below VSS by more than 50mV for
specified accuracy. Therefore the minimum supply voltage for the
LTC1273 is + 4.95V. The minimum supplies for the LTC1275 are +4.75V
and – 2.45V and the minimum supplies for the LTC1276 are ±4.95V.

CONVERSION DETAILS
The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 use a successive approximation algorithm and an internal sample-and-hold
circuit to convert an analog signal to a 12-bit parallel or
2-byte output. The ADCs are 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.)
Conversion start is controlled by the CS, RD and HBEN
inputs. At the start of conversion the successive approximation register (SAR) is reset and the three-state data
outputs are enabled. Once a conversion cycle has begun
it cannot be restarted.
During conversion, the internal 12-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, the AIN input connects to the sample-and-hold
capacitor during the acquire phase, and the comparator
offset is nulled by the feedback switch. In this acquire
phase, a minimum delay of 600ns will provide enough
time for the sample-and-hold capacitor to acquire the
analog signal. During the convert phase, the comparator
feedback switch opens, 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 AIN input charge. The SAR contents (a 12-bit
data word) which represent the AIN are loaded into the
12-bit output latches.
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 have an exceptionally
high speed sampling capability. FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) test techniques are used to characterize 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 2 shows a typical LTC1275
FFT plot.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
The Signal-to-Noise plus Distortion Ratio [S/(N + D)] 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 2 shows a typical spectral content with
a 300kHz sampling rate and a 29kHz input. The dynamic
performance is excellent for input frequencies up to the
Nyquist limit of 150kHz.

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
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. THD versus input fre-
If the ADC input signal consists of more than one spectral
component, the ADC transfer function nonlinearity can
produce intermodulation distortion (IMD) in addition to
THD. IMD is the change in one sinusoidal input caused by
the presence of another sinusoidal input at a different
frequency.
If two pure sine waves of frequencies fa and fb are applied
to the ADC input, nonlinearities in the ADC transfer function can create distortion products at sum and difference
frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where m and n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
For example, the 2nd order IMD terms include (fa + fb) and
(fa – fb) while the 3rd order IMD terms include (2fa + fb),
(2fa – fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa – 2fb). If the two input sine
waves are equal in magnitude, the value (in decibels) of the
2nd order IMD products can be expressed by the following
formula:
IMD (fa ± fb) = 20log

Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
The peak harmonic or spurious noise is the largest spectral component excluding the input signal and DC. This
value is expressed in decibels relative to the RMS value of
a full scale input signal.
Full Power and Full Linear Bandwidth
The full power bandwidth is that input frequency at which
the amplitude of the reconstructed fundamental is reduced by 3dB for a full scale input signal.
The full linear bandwidth is the input frequency at which
the S/(N + D) has dropped to 68dB (11 effective bits). The
LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 have been designed to optimize input bandwidth, allowing ADCs to undersample
input signals with frequencies above the converters’ Nyquist
Frequency. The noise floor stays very low at high frequencies; S/(N + D) becomes dominated by distortion at
frequencies far beyond Nyquist.
Driving the Analog Input
the analog input must settle after the small current spike
before the next conversion starts. Any op amp that settles
in 600ns to small current transients will allow maximum
speed operation. If slower op amps are used, more settling
time can be provided by increasing the time between
conversions. Suitable devices capable of driving the ADCs’
AIN input include the LT1190/LT1191, LT1007, LT1220,
LT1223 and LT1224 op amps.
The analog input tolerates source resistance very well.
Here again, the only requirement is that the analog input
must settle before the next conversion starts. For larger
source resistance, full DC accuracy can be obtained if
more time is allowed between conversions. For more
information, see the Acquisition Time vs Source Resistance curve in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section. For optimum frequency domain performance
[e.g., S/(N + D)], keep the source resistance below 100Ω.
Internal Reference
The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 have an on-chip, temperature compensated, curvature corrected, bandgap reference which is factory trimmed to 2.42V. It is internally
connected to the DAC and is available at pin 2 to provide
up to 1mA current to an external load.
For minimum code transition noise the reference output
should be decoupled with a capacitor to filter wideband
noise from the reference (10µF tantalum in parallel with a
0.1µF ceramic).
In the LTC1275, the VREF pin can be driven above its
normal value with a DAC or other means to provide input
span adjustment or to improve the reference temperature
drift. Figure 6 shows an LT1006 op amp driving the

2.45V to prevent conflict with the internal reference. The
reference should be driven to no more than 4.8V to keep
the input span within the ±5V supplies. In the LTC1273/
LT1276, the input spans are 0V to 5V and ±5V respectively with the internal reference. Driving the reference is
not recommended on the LTC1273/LTC1276 since the
input spans will exceed the supplies and codes will be lost
at full scale.

should be adjusted before full scale. To adjust offset, apply
0.61mV (i.e., 1/2LSB) at the input and adjust the offset trim
until the LTC1273 output code flickers between 0000 0000
0000 and 0000 0000 0001. To adjust full scale, apply an
analog input of 4.99817V (i.e., FS – 1 1/2LSBs or last code

the LTC1273 output code flickers between 1111 1111
1110 and 1111 1111 1111. It should be noted that if
negative ADC offsets need to be adjusted or if an output
swing to ground is required, the op amp in Figure 10b
requires a negative power supply.
Bipolar Offset and Full Scale Adjustment
(LTC1275/LTC1276)
Bipolar offset and full scale errors are adjusted in a similar
fashion to the unipolar case. Figure 10a shows the extra
components required for full scale error adjustment. If both
offset and full scale adjustments are needed, the circuit in
Figure 10c can be used. Again, bipolar offset must be
adjusted before full scale error. Bipolar offset adjustment is
achieved by trimming the offset adjustment of Figure 10c
while the input voltage is 1/2LSB below ground. This is done
by applying an input voltage of – 0.61mV or – 1.22mV
(– 0.5LSB for LTC1275 or LTC1276) to the input in Figure
10c and adjusting R8 until the ADC output code flickers
between 0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111. For full
scale adjustment, an input voltage of 2.49817V or 4.99636V

input and R5 is adjusted until the output code flickers
between 0111 1111 1110 and 0111 1111 1111.
BOARD LAYOUT AND BYPASSING
The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 are easy to use. To obtain the best performance from the devices a printed
circuit board is required. Layout for the printed circuit
board should ensure that 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. The analog input should be screened by
AGND.
High quality tantalum and ceramic bypass capacitors
should be used at the VDD and VREF pins as shown in Figure
11. For the LTC1275/LTC1276 a 0.1µF ceramic provides
adequate bypassing for the VSS pin. The capacitors must
be located as close to the pins as possible. The traces
connecting the pins and the bypass capacitors must be
kept short and should be made as wide as possible.
Noise: Input signal leads to AIN and signal return leads
from AGND (Pin 3) should be kept as short as possible to
minimize input noise coupling. In applications where this
is not possible, a shielded cable between source and ADC
is recommended. 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 impedances
as much as possible.
A single point analog ground plane separate from the logic
system ground should be established at Pin 3 (AGND) or
as close as possible to the ADC, as shown in Figure 11. Pin
12 (DGND) and all other analog grounds should be connected to this single analog ground point. No other digital
grounds should be connected to this analog ground point.
Low impedance analog and digital power supply common
returns are essential to low noise operation of the ADC and
the width for these traces should be as wide as possible.
In applications where the ADC data outputs and control
signals are connected to a continuously active microprocessor bus, it is possible to get errors in conversion
results. These errors are due to feedthrough from the
microprocessor to the ADC. The problem can be eliminated by forcing the microprocessor into a WAIT state
during conversion or by using three-state buffers to isolate the ADC data bus.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The ADCs are designed to interface with microprocessors
as a memory mapped device. The CS and RD control
inputs are common to all peripheral memory interfacing.
The HBEN input serves as a data byte select for 8-bit
processors and is normally either connected to the microprocessor address bus or grounded.
Internal Clock
These ADCs have an internal clock that eliminates the need
for synchronization between an external clock and the CS
and RD signals found in other ADCs. The internal clock is
factory trimmed to achieve a typical conversion time of
2.45µs, and a maximum conversion time over the full
operating temperature range of 2.7µs. No external adjustments are required and, with the guaranteed maximum
acquisition time of 600ns, throughput performance of
300ksps is assured.
Timing and Control
Conversion start and data read operations are controlled
by three digital inputs: HBEN, CS and RD. Figure 12 shows
the logic structure associated with these inputs. The three
signals are internally gated so that a logic “0” is required

Converter status is indicated by the BUSY output, and this

There are two modes of operation as outlined by the timing

Figure 13 and Table 2 show the timing diagram and data
bus status for Slow Memory Mode, Parallel Read. CS and
RD going low trigger a conversion and the ADC acknowledges by taking BUSY low. Data from the previous conversion appears on the three-state data outputs. BUSY returns high at the end of conversion when the output
latches have been updated and the conversion result is
placed on data outputs D11...D0/8.
Data Format
Slow Memory Mode, Two Byte Read
The output format can be either a complete parallel load for
16-bit microprocessors or a two byte load for 8-bit microprocessors. Data is always right justified (i.e., LSB is the
most right-hand bit in a 16-bit word). For a two byte read,
only data outputs D7...D0/8 are used. Byte selection is
governed by the HBEN input which controls an internal
digital multiplexer. This multiplexes the 12-bits of conversion data onto the lower D7...D0/8 outputs (4MSBs or
For a two byte read, only 8 data outputs D7...D0/8 are used.
Conversion start procedure and data output status for the
first read operation are identical to Slow Memory Mode,
Parallel Read. See Figure 14 timing diagram and Table 3
data bus status. At the end of the conversion, the low data
byte (D7...D0/8) is read from the ADC. A second READ
operation, with the HBEN high, places the high byte on data
outputs D3/11...D0/8 and disables conversion start. Note

that the 4MSBs appear on data output D11...D8 during
both READ operations.
ROM Mode, Parallel Read (HBEN = LOW)
The ROM Mode avoids placing a microprocessor into a
WAIT state. A conversion is started with a READ operation, and the 12 bits of data from the previous conversion
are available on data outputs D11...D0/8 (see Figure 15
and Table 4). This data may be disregarded if not required. A second READ operation reads the new data
(DB11...DB0) and starts another conversion. A delay at
least as long as the ADC’s conversion time plus the 600ns
minimum delay between conversions must be allowed
between READ operations.
ROM Mode, Two Byte Read
As previously mentioned for a two byte read, only data
outputs D7...D0/8 are used. Conversion is started in the

D0/8
normal way with a READ operation and the data output
status is the same as the ROM mode, Parallel Read (see
Figure 16 timing diagram and Table 5 data bus status).
Two more READ operations are required to access the new
conversion result. A delay equal at the ADCs’ conversion
time must be allowed between conversion start and the
third data READ operation. The second READ operation
with HBEN high disables conversion start and places the
high byte (4MSBs) on data outputs D3/11...D0/8. A third
read operation accesses the low data byte (DB7...DB0)
and starts another conversion. The 4MSBs appear on data
outputs D11...D8 during all three read operations.
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The LTC1273/LTC1275/LTC1276 allow easy interfacing to digital signal processors as well as modern high

MC68000 Microprocessor
Figure 18 shows a typical interface for the MC68000. The
LTC1273 is operating in the Slow Memory Mode. Assuming the LTC1273 is located at address C000, then the
following single 16-bit MOVE instruction both starts a
conversion and reads the conversion result:
Move.W $C000,D0
At the beginning of the instruction cycle when the ADC
address is selected, BUSY and CS assert DTACK so that
the MC68000 is forced into a WAIT state. At the end of
conversion, BUSY returns high and the conversion result
is placed in the D0 register of the microprocessor.
Figure 19 shows an LTC1273 interface for the Z80/8085A.
The LTC1273 is operating in the Slow Memory Mode and
a two byte read is required. Not shown in the figure is the
8-bit latch required to demultiplex the 8085A common
address/data bus. A0 is used to assert HBEN so that an
even address (HBEN = LOW) to the LTC1273 will start a
conversion and read the low data byte. An odd address
(HBEN = HIGH) will read the high data byte. This is
accomplished with the single 16-bit LOAD instruction
below.

This is a two byte read instruction which loads the ADC
data (address B000) into the HL register pair. During the
first read operation, BUSY forces the microprocessor to
WAIT for the LTC1273 conversion. No WAIT states are
inserted during the second read operation when the microprocessor is reading the high data byte.

current so it can be accurately driven by the unbuffered
MUX. The CD4520 counter increments the MUX channel
after each sample is taken. Figure 22 shows the acquisition time of LTC1275 vs the source resistance. For a
500Ω maximum “on” resistance of the CD4051, the
acquisition time of the ADC is not greatly affected. For
larger source resistances, modest increases in acquisition time must be allowed.
Figure 20 shows an LTC1273/TMS32010 interface. The
LTC1273 is operating in the ROM Mode.
The LTC1273 is mapped at a port address. The following
I/O instruction starts a conversion and reads the previous
conversion result into data memory.
IN A,PA
(PA = PORT ADDRESS)
When conversion is complete, a second I/O instruction
reads the up-to-date data into memory and starts another
conversion. A delay at least as long as the ADC conversion
time must be allowed between I/O instructions.

Demodulating a Signal by Undersampling
with LTC1275
Figure 23 shows a 455kHz amplitude modulated input
undersampled by the LTC1275. With a 227.5kHz sample
rate, the converter provides a 100dB noise floor and 68dB
distortion when digitizing the 455kHz AM input.
A time domain view of the demodulation is shown in Figure
25. The top trace shows the 455kHz waveform modulated
by a – 6dB, 5kHz signal. The bottom trace shows the
demodulated signal produced by the LTC1275 reconstructed through a 12-bit DAC. The resultant frequency is
5kHz with a sample rate of 227.5kHz. There are roughly 45
points per cycle.
Figure 24 shows an FFT of the AM signal digitized at

Figure 26 shows a circuit that precisely measures the
difference in time between two events. It has a 400ns full
scale and 100ps resolution. The start signal releases the
ramp generator made up of the PNP current source and
the 250pF capacitor. The circuit ramps until the stop
signal shuts off the current source. The final value of the
ramp represents the time between the start and stop
events. The LTC1273 digitizes this final value and outputs
the digital data.
