IF Undersampling to 135 MHz
A single clock input is used to control all internal conversion
cycles. The digital output data is presented in straight binary
output format. An out-of-range signal (OTR) indicates an overflow condition which can be used with the most significant bit
to determine low or high overflow.
The AD9200 can operate with supply range from 2.7 V to
5.5 V, ideally suiting it for low power operation in high speed
portable applications.
The AD9200 is specified over the industrial (–40°C to +85°C)
and commercial (0°C to +70°C) temperature ranges.

Low Power
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9200 is a monolithic, single supply, 10-bit, 20 MSPS
analog-to-digital converter with an on-chip sample-and-hold
amplifier and voltage reference. The AD9200 uses a multistage
differential pipeline architecture at 20 MSPS data rates and
guarantees no missing codes over the full operating temperature
range.
The AD9200 consumes 80 mW on a 3 V supply (excluding the
reference power). In sleep mode, power is reduced to below
5 mW.
Very Small Package
The AD9200 is available in both a 28-lead SSOP and 48-lead
LQFP packages.
The input of the AD9200 has been designed to ease the development of both imaging and communications systems. The user
can select a variety of input ranges and offsets and can drive the
input either single-ended or differentially.
Pin Compatible with AD876
The AD9200 is pin compatible with the AD876, allowing older
designs to migrate to lower supply voltages.
300 MHz On-Board Sample-and-Hold
The sample-and-hold (SHA) amplifier is equally suited for both
multiplexed systems that switch full-scale voltage levels in successive channels and sampling single-channel inputs at frequencies up to and beyond the Nyquist rate. AC coupled input
signals can be shifted to a predetermined level, with an onboard
clamp circuit (AD9200ARS, AD9200KST). The dynamic performance is excellent.
The versatile SHA input can be configured for either singleended or differential inputs.
Out-of-Range Indicator
The OTR output bit indicates when the input signal is beyond
the AD9200’s input range.
Built-In Clamp Function
Allows dc restoration of video signals with AD9200ARS and
AD9200KST.
The AD9200 has an onboard programmable reference. An
external reference can also be chosen to suit the dc accuracy and
temperature drift requirements of the application.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Offset Error
The first transition should occur at a level 1 LSB above “zero.”
Offset is defined as the deviation of the actual first code transition from that point.
Integral nonlinearity refers to the deviation of each individual
code from a line drawn from “zero” through “full scale”. The
point used as “zero” occurs 1/2 LSB before the first code transition. “Full scale” is defined as a level 1 1/2 LSB beyond the last
code transition. The deviation is measured from the center of
each particular code to the true straight line.
Gain Error
The first code transition should occur for an analog value 1 LSB
above nominal negative full scale. The last transition should
occur for an analog value 1 LSB below the nominal positive full
scale. Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between first and last code transitions and the ideal difference
between the first and last code transitions.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL, No Missing Codes)
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. It is often
specified in terms of the resolution for which no missing codes
(NMC) are guaranteed.
Pipeline Delay (Latency)
The number of clock cycles between conversion initiation and
the associated output data being made available. New output
data is provided every rising edge.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9200 implements a pipelined multistage architecture to
achieve high sample rate with low power. The AD9200 distributes the conversion over several smaller A/D subblocks, refining
the conversion with progressively higher accuracy as it passes
the results from stage to stage. As a consequence of the distributed conversion, the AD9200 requires a small fraction of the
1023 comparators used in a traditional flash type A/D. A
sample-and-hold function within each of the stages permits the
first stage to operate on a new input sample while the second,
third and fourth stages operate on the three preceding samples.

OPERATIONAL MODES

The AD9200 is designed to allow optimal performance in a
wide variety of imaging, communications and instrumentation
applications, including pin compatibility with the AD876 A/D.
To realize this flexibility, internal switches on the AD9200 are
used to reconfigure the circuit into different modes. These modes
are selected by appropriate pin strapping. There are three parts
of the circuit affected by this modality: the voltage reference, the
reference buffer, and the analog input. The nature of the application will determine which mode is appropriate: the descriptions in the following sections, as well as the Table I should
assist in picking the desired mode.

In single-ended operation, the input spans the range,
REFBS ≤ AIN ≤ REFTS
where REFBS can be connected to GND and REFTS connected to VREF. If the user requires a different reference range,
REFBS and REFTS can be driven to any voltage within the
power supply rails, so long as the difference between the two is
between 1 V and 2 V.
Top/Bottom Mode sets the input range between two points.
The two points are between 1 V and 2 V apart. The Top/Bottom

In differential operation, REFTS and REFBS are shorted together, and the input span is set by VREF,

where VREF is determined by the internal reference or brought
in externally by the user.
Differential Mode is attained by driving the AIN pin as one
differential input and shorting REFTS and REFBS together and
driving them as the second differential input. The MODE pin
is tied to AVDD/2. Preferred mode for optimal distortion
performance.
Single-Ended is attained by driving the AIN pin while the
REFTS and REFBS pins are held at dc points. The MODE pin is
tied to AVDD.
Single-Ended/Clamped (AC Coupled) the input may be
clamped to some dc level by ac coupling the input. This is done
by tying the CLAMPIN to some dc point and applying a pulse

SPECIAL
AD876 Mode enables users of the AD876 to drop the AD9200
into their socket. This mode is attained by floating or grounding

INPUT AND REFERENCE OVERVIEW
Figure 16, a simplified model of the AD9200, highlights the
relationship between the analog input, AIN, and the reference
voltages, REFTS, REFBS and VREF. Like the voltages applied
to the resistor ladder in a flash A/D converter, REFTS and
REFBS define the maximum and minimum input voltages to
the A/D.
(REFTS – VREF/2) ≤ AIN ≤ (REFTS + VREF/2)
The best noise performance may be obtained by operating the
AD9200 with a 2 V input range. The best distortion performance may be obtained by operating the AD9200 with a 1 V
input range.
REFERENCE OPERATION
The AD9200 can be configured in a variety of reference topologies. The simplest configuration is to use the AD9200’s onboard
bandgap reference, which provides a pin-strappable option to
generate either a 1 V or 2 V output. If the user desires a reference voltage other than those two, an external resistor divider
can be connected between VREF, REFSENSE and analog
ground to generate a potential anywhere between 1 V and 2 V.
Another alternative is to use an external reference for designs
requiring enhanced accuracy and/or drift performance. A
third alternative is to bring in top and bottom references,
bypassing VREF altogether.
Figures 16d, 16e and 16f illustrate the reference and input architecture of the AD9200. In tailoring a desired arrangement,
the user can select an input configuration to match drive circuit.
Then, moving to the reference modes at the bottom of the
figure, select a reference circuit to accommodate the offset and
amplitude of a full-scale signal.
Table I outlines pin configurations to match user requirements.
The input stage is normally configured for single-ended operation, but allows for differential operation by shorting REFTS
and REFBS together to be used as the second input.

The actual reference voltages used by the internal circuitry of
the AD9200 appear on REFTF and REFBF. For proper operation, it is necessary to add a capacitor network to decouple these
pins. The REFTF and REFBF should be decoupled for all
internal and external configurations as shown in Figure 17.

INTERNAL REFERENCE OPERATION
Figures 18, 19 and 20 show example hookups of the AD9200
internal reference in its most common configurations. (Figures
18 and 19 illustrate top/bottom mode while Figure 20 illustrates
center span mode). Figure 29 shows how to connect the AD9200
for 1 V p-p differential operation. Shorting the VREF pin
directly to the REFSENSE pin places the internal reference
amplifier, A1, in unity-gain mode and the resultant reference
output is 1 V. In Figure 18 REFBS is grounded to give an input
range from 0 V to 1 V. These modes can be chosen when the
supply is either +3 V or +5 V. The VREF pin must be bypassed to
AVSS (analog ground) with a 1.0 µF tantalum capacitor in
parallel with a low inductance, low ESR, 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor.

Using an external reference may provide more flexibility and
improve drift and accuracy. Figures 21 through 23 show examples of how to use an external reference with the AD9200.
To use an external reference, the user must disable the internal

The user then has the option of driving the VREF pin, or driving the REFTS and REFBS pins.

STANDBY OPERATION
The ADC may be placed into a powered down (sleep) mode by
driving the STBY (standby) pin to logic high potential and
holding the clock at logic low. In this mode the typical power
drain is approximately 4 mW. If there is no connection to the
STBY pin, an internal pull-down circuit will keep the ADC in a
“wake-up” mode of operation.
Figure 22 shows an example of an external reference generating
2.5 V at the shorted REFTS and REFBS inputs. In this instance, a REF43 2.5 V reference drives REFTS and REFBS. A
resistive divider generates a 1 V VREF signal that is buffered by
A3. A3 must be able to drive a 10 kΩ, capacitive load. Choose
this op amp based on noise and accuracy requirements.
The ADC will “wake up” in 400 ns (typ) after the standby pulse
goes low.

Figure 23a shows an example of the external references driving
the REFTF and REFBF pins that is compatible with the
AD876. REFTS is shorted to REFTF and driven by an external
4 V low impedance source. REFBS is shorted to REFBF and
driven by a 2 V source. The MODE pin is connected to GND
in this configuration.
The AD9200ARS and AD9200KST parts feature an optional
clamp circuit for dc restoration of video or ac coupled signals.
Figure 24 shows the internal clamp circuitry and the external
control signals needed for clamp operation. To enable the
clamp, apply a logic high to the CLAMP pin. This will close
the switch SW1. The clamp amplifier will then servo the voltage at the AIN pin to be equal to the clamp voltage applied at
the CLAMPIN pin. After the desired clamp level is attained,
SW1 is opened by taking CLAMP back to a logic low. Ignoring
the droop caused by the input bias current, the input capacitor
CIN will hold the dc voltage at AIN constant until the next
clamp interval. The input resistor RIN has a minimum recommended value of 10 Ω, to maintain the closed-loop stability of
the clamp amplifier.
The allowable voltage range that can be applied to CLAMPIN
depends on the operational limits of the internal clamp amplifier. When operating off of 3 volt supplies, the recommended
clamp range is between 0.5 volts and 2.0 volts.

REV. E
AD9200
The input capacitor should be sized to allow sufficient acquisition time of the clamp voltage at AIN within the CLAMP interval, but also be sized to minimize droop between clamping
intervals. Specifically, the acquisition time when the switch is
closed will equal:
V 
T ACQ = RIN CIN ln  C 
 VE 
where VC is the voltage change required across CIN, and VE is
the error voltage. VC is calculated by taking the difference between the initial input dc level at the start of the clamp interval
and the clamp voltage supplied at CLAMPIN. VE is a systemdependent parameter, and equals the maximum tolerable deviation from VC. For example, if a 2-volt input level needs to be
clamped to 1 volt at the AD9200’s input within 10 millivolts,
then VC equals 2 – 1 or 1 volt, and VE equals 10 mV. Note that
once the proper clamp level is attained at the input, only a very
small voltage change will be required to correct for droop.
back porch to truncate the SYNC below the AD9200’s minimum input voltage. With a CIN = 1 µF, and RIN = 20 Ω, the
acquisition time needed to set the input dc level to one volt
with 1 mV accuracy is about 140 µs, assuming a full 1 volt VC.
With a 1 µF input coupling capacitor, the droop across one
horizontal can be calculated:
IBIAS = 10 µA, and t = 63.5 µs, so dV = 0.635 mV, which is less
than one LSB.
After the input capacitor is initially charged, the clamp pulsewidth only needs to be wide enough to correct small voltage
errors such as the droop. The fine scale settling characteristics
of the clamp circuitry are shown in Table II.
Depending on the required accuracy, a CLAMP pulsewidth of
1 µs–3 µs should work in most applications. The OFFSET values ignore the contribution of offset from the clamp amplifier;
they simply compare the output code with a “final value” measured with a much longer CLAMP pulse duration.
The voltage droop is calculated with the following equation:
Table II.

I
dV = BIAS t
CIN
where t = time between clamping intervals.
The bias current of the AD9200 will depend on the sampling
rate, FS. The switched capacitor input AIN appears resistive
over time, with an input resistance equal to 1/CSFS. Given a
sampling rate of 20 MSPS and an input capacitance of 1 pF, the
input resistance is 50 kΩ. This input resistance is equivalently
terminated at the midscale voltage of the input range. The worst
case bias current will thus result when the input signal is at the
extremes of the input range, that is, the furthest distance from
the midscale voltage level. For a 1-volt input range, the maximum bias current will be ± 0.5 volts divided by 50 kΩ, which is
± 10 µA.

If droop is a critical parameter, then the minimum value of CIN

DRIVING THE ANALOG INPUT
Figure 25 shows the equivalent analog input of the AD9200, a
sample-and-hold amplifier (switched capacitor input SHA).
Bringing CLK to a logic low level closes Switches 1 and 2 and
opens Switch 3. The input source connected to AIN must
charge capacitor CH during this time. When CLK transitions
from logic “low” to logic “high,” Switches 1 and 2 open, placing
the SHA in hold mode. Switch 3 then closes, forcing the output
of the op amp to equal the voltage stored on CH. When CLK
transitions from logic “high” to logic “low,” Switch 3 opens
first. Switches 1 and 2 close, placing the SHA in track mode.
The structure of the input SHA places certain requirements on
the input drive source. The combination of the pin capacitance,
CP, and the hold capacitance, CH, is typically less than 5 pF.
The input source must be able to charge or discharge this capacitance to 10-bit accuracy in one half of a clock cycle. When
the SHA goes into track mode, the input source must charge or
discharge capacitor CH from the voltage already stored on CH
to the new voltage. In the worst case, a full-scale voltage step on
the input, the input source must provide the charging current
through the RON (50 Ω) of Switch 1 and quickly (within 1/2 CLK
period) settle. This situation corresponds to driving a low input
impedance. On the other hand, when the source voltage equals
the value previously stored on CH, the hold capacitor requires
no input current and the equivalent input impedance is extremely high.
Adding series resistance between the output of the source and
the AIN pin reduces the drive requirements placed on the
source. Figure 26 shows this configuration. The bandwidth of
the particular application limits the size of this resistor. To
maintain the performance outlined in the data sheet specifications, the resistor should be limited to 20 Ω or less. For applications with signal bandwidths less than 10 MHz, the user may
proportionally increase the size of the series resistor. Alternatively, adding a shunt capacitance between the AIN pin and
analog ground can lower the ac load impedance. The value of
this capacitance will depend on the source resistance and the
required signal bandwidth.
The input span of the AD9200 is a function of the reference
voltages. For more information regarding the input range, see
the Internal and External Reference sections of the data sheet.
In many cases, particularly in single-supply operation, ac coupling offers a convenient way of biasing the analog input signal
at the proper signal range. Figure 25 shows a typical configuration for ac-coupling the analog input signal to the AD9200.
Maintaining the specifications outlined in the data sheet
requires careful selection of the component values. The most
important is the f –3 dB high-pass corner frequency. It is a function of
R2 and the parallel combination of C1 and C2. The f –3 dB point
can be approximated by the equation:
f –3 dB = 1/(2 × pi × [R2] CEQ)
where CEQ is the parallel combination of C1 and C2. Note that
C1 is typically a large electrolytic or tantalum capacitor that
becomes inductive at high frequencies. Adding a small ceramic
or polystyrene capacitor (on the order of 0.01 µF) that does not
become inductive until negligibly higher frequencies, maintains
a low impedance over a wide frequency range.
NOTE: AC coupled input signals may also be shifted to a desired
level with the AD9200’s internal clamp. See Clamp Operation.

Figure 27. AC Coupled Input
There are additional considerations when choosing the resistor
values. The ac-coupling capacitors integrate the switching transients present at the input of the AD9200 and cause a net dc
bias current, IB, to flow into the input. The magnitude of the
bias current increases as the signal magnitude deviates from
V midscale and the clock frequency increases; i.e., minimum
bias current flow when AIN = V midscale. This bias current
will result in an offset error of (R1 + R2) × IB. If it is necessary
to compensate this error, consider making R2 negligibly small or
modifying VBIAS to account for the resultant offset.
In systems that must use dc coupling, use an op amp to levelshift a ground-referenced signal to comply with the input requirements of the AD9200. Figure 28 shows an AD8041 configured in noninverting mode.

The pipelined architecture of the AD9200 operates on both

cycle variations the recommended logic family to drive the clock
input is high speed or advanced CMOS (HC/HCT, AC/ACT)
logic. CMOS logic provides both symmetrical voltage threshold
levels and sufficient rise and fall times to support 20 MSPS
operation. The AD9200 is designed to support a conversion rate
of 20 MSPS; running the part at slightly faster clock rates may
be possible, although at reduced performance levels. Conversely,
some slight performance improvements might be realized by
clocking the AD9200 at slower clock rates.

AD876 MODE OF OPERATION
The AD9200 may be dropped into the AD876 socket. This will
allow AD876 users to take advantage of the reduced power
consumption realized when running the AD9200 on a 3.0 V
analog supply.
Figure 30 shows the pin functions of the AD876 and AD9200.
The grounded REFSENSE pin and floating MODE pin effectively put the AD9200 in the external reference mode. The
external reference input for the AD876 will now be placed on
the reference pins of the AD9200.
The clamp controls will be grounded by the AD876 socket. The
AD9200 has a 3 clock cycle delay compared to a 3.5 cycle delay
of the AD876.

The power dissipated by the output buffers is largely proportional to the clock frequency; running at reduced clock rates
provides a reduction in power consumption.
DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Each of the AD9200 digital control inputs, THREE-STATE

The format of the digital output is straight binary (see Figure

Sampling IF signals above an ADC’s baseband region (i.e., dc
to FS/2) is becoming increasingly popular in communication
applications. This process is often referred to as Direct IF Down
Conversion or Undersampling. There are several potential benefits in using the ADC to alias (i.e., or mix) down a narrowband
or wideband IF signal. First and foremost is the elimination of a
complete mixer stage with its associated amplifiers and filters,
reducing cost and power dissipation. Second is the ability to
apply various DSP techniques to perform such functions as
filtering, channel selection, quadrature demodulation, data
reduction, detection, etc. A detailed discussion on using this
technique in digital receivers can be found in Analog Devices
Application Notes AN-301 and AN-302.
In Direct IF Down Conversion applications, one exploits the
inherent sampling process of an ADC in which an IF signal
lying outside the baseband region can be aliased back into the
baseband region in a similar manner that a mixer will downconvert an IF signal. Similar to the mixer topology, an image
rejection filter is required to limit other potential interfering
signals from also aliasing back into the ADC’s baseband region.
A tradeoff exists between the complexity of this image rejection
filter and the sample rate as well as dynamic range of the ADC.
The AD9200 is well suited for various narrowband IF sampling
applications. The AD9200’s low distortion input SHA has a
full-power bandwidth extending to 300 MHz thus encompassing
many popular IF frequencies. A DNL of ± 0.5 LSB (typ) combined with low thermal input referred noise allows the AD9200 in
the 2 V span to provide 60 dB of SNR for a baseband input sine
wave. Also, its low aperture jitter of 2 ps rms ensures minimum
SNR degradation at higher IF frequencies. In fact, the AD9200
is capable of still maintaining 56 dB of SNR at an IF of 135 MHz
with a 1 V (i.e., 4 dBm) input span. Note, although the AD9200
will typically yield a 3 to 4 dB improvement in SNR when configured for the 2 V span, the 1 V span provides the optimum
full-scale distortion performance. Furthermore, the 1 V span
reduces the performance requirements of the input driver circuitry and thus may be more practical for system implementation purposes.

To maximize its distortion performance, the AD9200 is configured in the differential mode with a 1 V span using a transformer.
The center tap of the transformer is biased at midsupply via a
resistor divider. Preceding the AD9200 is a bandpass filter as
well as a 32 dB gain stage. A large gain stage may be required
to compensate for the high insertion losses of a SAW filter used
for image rejection. The gain stage will also provide adequate
isolation for the SAW filter from the charge “kick back” currents
associated with AD9200’s input stage.
The gain stage can be realized using one or two cascaded
AD8009 op amps amplifiers. The AD8009 is a low cost, 1 GHz,
current-feedback op amp having a 3rd order intercept characterized up to 250 MHz. A passive bandpass filter following the
AD8009 attenuates its dominant 2nd order distortion products
which would otherwise be aliased back into the AD9200’s
baseband region. Also, it reduces any out-of-band noise which
would also be aliased back due to the AD9200’s noise bandwidth of 220+ MHz. Note, the bandpass filters specifications
are application dependent and will affect both the total distortion and noise performance of this circuit.
The distortion and noise performance of an ADC at the given
IF frequency is of particular concern when evaluating an ADC
for a narrowband IF sampling application. Both single-tone and
dual-tone SFDR vs. amplitude are very useful in an assessing an
ADC’s noise performance and noise contribution due to aperture jitter. In any application, one is advised to test several units
of the same device under the same conditions to evaluate the
given applications sensitivity to that particular device.

Figure 34 shows a simplified schematic of the AD9200 configured in an IF sampling application. To reduce the complexity of
the digital demodulator in many quadrature demodulation applications, the IF frequency and/or sample rate are selected such
that the bandlimited IF signal aliases back into the center of the
ADC’s baseband region (i.e., FS/4). For example, if an IF signal centered at 45 MHz is sampled at 20 MSPS, an image of
this IF signal will be aliased back to 5.0 MHz which corresponds to one quarter of the sample rate (i.e., FS/4). This
demodulation technique typically reduces the complexity of the
post digital demodulator ASIC which follows the ADC.

Figures 35–38 combine the dual-tone SFDR as well as single
tone SFDR and SNR performance at IF frequencies of 45 MHz,
70 MHz, 85 MHz and 135 MHz. Note, the SFDR vs. amplitude data is referenced to dBFS while the single tone SNR data
is referenced to dBc. The performance characteristics in these
figures are representative of the AD9200 without the AD8009.
The AD9200 was operated in the differential mode (via transformer) with a 1 V span at 20 MSPS. The analog supply
(AVDD) and the digital supply (DRVDD) were set to +5 V and
3.3 V, respectively.
Although not presented, data was also taken with the insertion
of an AD8009 gain stage of 32 dB in the signal path. No
degradation in two-tone SFDR vs. amplitude was noted at an
IF of 45 MHz, 70 MHz and 85 MHz. However, at 135 MHz,
the AD8009 became the limiting factor in the distortion performance until the two input tones were decreased to –15 dBFS
from their full-scale level of –6.5 dBFS. Note: the SNR performance in each case degraded by approximately 0.5 dB due to
the AD8009’s in-band noise contribution.

GROUNDING AND LAYOUT RULES
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
As is the case for any high performance device, proper grounding and layout techniques are essential in achieving optimal
performance. The analog and digital grounds on the AD9200
have been separated to optimize the management of return
currents in a system. Grounds should be connected near the
ADC. It is recommended that a printed circuit board (PCB) of
at least four layers, employing a ground plane and power planes,
be used with the AD9200. The use of ground and power planes
offers distinct advantages:
Each of the on-chip buffers for the AD9200 output bits
(D0–D9) is powered from the DRVDD supply pins, separate
from AVDD. The output drivers are sized to handle a variety
of logic families while minimizing the amount of glitch energy
generated. In all cases, a fan-out of one is recommended to keep
the capacitive load on the output data bits below the specified
20 pF level.
1. The minimization of the loop area encompassed by a signal
and its return path.
2. The minimization of the impedance associated with ground
and power paths.
3. The inherent distributed capacitor formed by the power plane,
PCB insulation and ground plane.
These characteristics result in both a reduction of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and an overall improvement in
performance.
It is important to design a layout that prevents noise from coupling onto the input signal. Digital signals should not be run in
parallel with the input signal traces and should be routed away
from the input circuitry. Separate analog and digital grounds
should be joined together directly under the AD9200 in a solid
ground plane. The power and ground return currents must be
carefully managed. A general rule of thumb for mixed signal
layouts dictates that the return currents from digital circuitry
should not pass through critical analog circuitry.
REV. E
For DRVDD = 5 V, the AD9200 output signal swing is compatible with both high speed CMOS and TTL logic families. For
TTL, the AD9200 on-chip, output drivers were designed to
support several of the high speed TTL families (F, AS, S). For
applications where the clock rate is below 20 MSPS, other TTL
families may be appropriate. For interfacing with lower voltage
CMOS logic, the AD9200 sustains 20 MSPS operation with
DRVDD = 3 V. In all cases, check your logic family data sheets
for compatibility with the AD9200 Digital Specification table.
THREE-STATE OUTPUTS
The digital outputs of the AD9200 can be placed in a high
impedance state by setting the THREE-STATE pin to HIGH.
This feature is provided to facilitate in-circuit testing or evaluation.
