1 MSPS, 14-Bit, Simultaneous Sampling
SAR ADC with PGA and Four Comparators
AD7264
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7264 is a dual, 14-bit, high speed, low power, successive
approximation ADC that operates from a single 5 V power supply
and features throughput rates of up to 1 MSPS per on-chip
ADC (500 kSPS for the AD7264-5). Two complete ADC functions allow simultaneous sampling and conversion of two
channels. Each ADC is preceded by a true differential analog
input with a PGA. There are 14 gain settings available: ×1, ×2,
×3, ×4, ×6, ×8, ×12, ×16, ×24, ×32, ×48, ×64, ×96, and ×128.
The AD7264 contains four comparators. Comparator A and
Comparator B are optimized for low power, whereas Comparator C
and Comparator D have fast propagation delays. The AD7264
features a calibration function to remove any device offset error
and programmable gain adjust registers to allow for input path
(for example, sensor) offset and gain compensation. The AD7264
has an on-chip 2.5 V reference that can be disabled if an external
reference is preferred. The AD7264 is available in 48-lead LFCSP
and LQFP packages.
The AD7264 is ideally suited for monitoring small amplitude
signals from a variety of sensors. The parts include all the
functionality needed for monitoring the position feedback signals
from a variety of analog encoders used in motor control systems.

Description
Analog Supply Voltage, 4.75 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for the analog circuitry on the
AD7264. All AVCC pins can be tied together. This supply should be decoupled to AGND with a 100 nF
ceramic capacitor per supply and a 10 μF tantalum capacitor.
Comparator Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for Comparator A and
Comparator B. This supply should be decoupled to CA_CB_GND. AVCC, CC_CDVCC, and CA_CBVCC can be
tied together.
Comparator Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for Comparator C and
Comparator D. This supply should be decoupled to CC_CD_GND. AVCC, CC_CDVCC, and CA_CBVCC can be
tied together.
Analog Inputs of ADC A. True differential input pair.
Analog Inputs of ADC B. True differential input pair.
Reference Input/Output. Decoupling capacitors are connected to these pins to decouple the
internal reference buffer for each respective ADC. Typically, 1 μF capacitors are required to decouple
the reference. Provided the output is buffered, the on-chip reference can be taken from these pins
and applied externally to the rest of a system.
Serial Clock. Logic input. A serial clock input provides the SCLK for accessing the data from the
AD7264. This clock is also used as the clock source for the conversion process. A minimum of
33 clocks are required to perform the conversion and access the 14-bit result.
Chip Select. Active low logic input. This input initiates conversions on the AD7264.
Logic Input. Initiates an internal offset calibration.
Logic Input. Places the AD7264 in the selected shutdown mode in conjunction with the PD1 and
PD0 pins. See Table 7.
Logic Input. Places the AD7264 in the selected shutdown mode in conjunction with the PD2 and
PD0 pins. See Table 7.
Logic Input/Data Input. Places the AD7264 in the selected shutdown mode in conjunction with the
PD2 and PD1 pins. See Table 7. If all gain selection pins, G0 to G3, are tied low, this pin acts as the
data input pin and all programming is via the control register (see Table 8). Data to be written to the

Description
Comparator Inputs. These pins are the inverting and noninverting analog inputs for Comparator A
and Comparator B. These two comparators have very low power consumption.
Comparator Inputs. These pins are the inverting and noninverting analog inputs for Comparator C
and Comparator D. These two comparators offer very fast propagation delays.
Analog Ground. Ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7264. All analog input
signals and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage. All AGND pins
should be connected to the AGND plane of a system. The AGND, DGND, CA_CB_GND, and
CC_CD_GND voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart,
even on a transient basis. CA_CB_GND and CC_CD_GND can be tied to AGND.
Digital Ground. Ground reference point for all digital circuitry on the AD7264. The DGND pin should
be connected to the DGND plane of a system. The DGND and AGND voltages should ideally be at
the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis.
Comparator Outputs. These pins provide a CMOS (push-pull) output from each respective
comparator. These are digital output pins with logic levels determined by the VDRIVE supply.
Serial Data Outputs. The data output from the AD7264 is supplied to each pin as a serial data stream
in twos complement format. The bits are clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. A total of
33 SCLK cycles are required to perform the conversion and access the 14-bit data. During the
conversion process, the data output pins are in three-state and, when the conversion is completed,
the 19th SCLK edge clocks out the MSB. The data appears simultaneously on both pins from the
simultaneous conversions of both ADCs. The data is provided MSB first. If CS is held low for a further
14 SCLK cycles on either DOUTA or DOUTB following the initial 33 SCLK cycles, the data from the other
ADC follows on the DOUT pin. This allows data from a simultaneous conversion on both ADCs to be
gathered in serial format on either DOUTA or DOUTB using only one serial port.
Logic Inputs. These pins are used to program the gain setting of the front-end amplifiers. If all four
pins are tied low, the PD0/DIN pin acts as a data input pin, DIN, and all programming is made via the
control register. See Table 6.
Logic Power Supply Input, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. The voltage supplied at this pin determines at what
voltage the interface operates, including the comparator outputs. This pin should be decoupled
to DGND.
Comparator Ground. Ground reference point for all comparator circuitry on the AD7264. Both the
CA_CB_GND and CC_CD_GND pins should connect to the GND plane of a system and can be tied to
AGND. The DGND, AGND, CA_CB_GND, and CC_CD_GND voltages should ideally be at the same
potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis.
Internal/External Reference Selection. Logic input. If this pin is tied to a logic high voltage, the
on-chip 2.5 V reference is used as the reference source for both ADC A and ADC B. If the REFSEL
pin is tied to GND, an external reference can be supplied to the AD7264 through the VREFA and/or
VREFB pins.

TERMINOLOGY
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between the measured
and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes in
the ADC.
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from a straight
line passing through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function.
The endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale, a single
(1) LSB point below the first code transition, and full scale, a
point 1 LSB above the last code transition.
Zero Code Error
This is the deviation of the midscale transition (all 1s to all 0s)
from the ideal VIN voltage, that is, VCM − ½ LSB.
Positive Full-Scale Error
This is the deviation of the last code transition (011 … 110 to
011 … 111) from the ideal, that is,
⎛ VREF ⎞
VCM + ⎜
⎟ − 1 LSB
⎝ 2 × Gain ⎠
after the zero code error has been adjusted out.
Negative Full-Scale Error
This is the deviation of the first code transition (10 … 000 to
10 … 001) from the ideal, that is,
⎛ VREF ⎞
VCM − ⎜
⎟ + 1 LSB
⎝ 2 × Gain ⎠
after the zero code error has been adjusted out.
Zero Code Error Match
This is the difference in zero code error across both ADCs.
Positive Full-Scale Error Match
This is the difference in positive full-scale error across both ADCs.
Negative Full-Scale Error Match
This is the difference in negative full-scale error across both ADCs.
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
The track-and-hold amplifier returns to track mode at the end
of conversion. Track-and-hold acquisition time is the time
required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach
its final value, within ±1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio
This ratio is the measured ratio of signal-to-(noise + distortion)
at the output of the analog-to-digital converter. The signal is the
rms amplitude of the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2),
excluding dc. The ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digitization process; the more levels, the
smaller the quantization noise.
The theoretical signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio for an ideal
N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76) dB
Thus, for a 14-bit converter, this is 86 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
Total harmonic distortion is the ratio of the rms sum of
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7264, it is defined as
THD(dB) = 20 log
V 2 2 + V 3 2 + V 4 2 + V 5 2 + V6 2
V1
where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3,
V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the
sixth harmonics.
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
Peak harmonic, or spurious noise, is defined as the ratio of the
rms value of the next largest component in the ADC output
spectrum (up to fS/2, excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is determined
by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs where
the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is a noise peak.
ADC-to-ADC Isolation
ADC-to-ADC isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk
between ADC A and ADC B. It is measured by applying a fullscale, 100 kHz sine wave signal to all unselected input channels and
determining how much that signal is attenuated in the selected
channel with a 40 kHz signal. The figure given is the worst-case.
Power Supply Rejection Ration (PSRR)
Variations in power supply affect the full-scale transition but
not the linearity of the converter. PSRR is the maximum change
in the full-scale transition point due to a change in power
supply voltage from the nominal value (see Figure 22).
Propagation Delay Time, Low to High (tPLH)
Propagation delay time from low to high is defined as the time
taken from the 50% point on a low to high input signal until the
digital output signal reaches 50% of its final low value.
Propagation Delay Time, High to Low (tPHL)
Propagation delay time from high to low is defined as the time
taken from the 50% point on a high to low input signal until the
digital output signal reaches 50% of its final high value.
Comparator Offset
Comparator offset is the measure of the density of digital 1s
and 0s in the comparator output when the negative analog
terminal of the comparator input is held at a static potential,
and the analog input to the positive terminal of the comparators
is varied proportionally about the static negative terminal voltage.

AD7264
THEORY OF OPERATION
CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7264 is a fast, dual, simultaneous sampling, differential,
14-bit, serial ADCs. The AD7264 contains two on-chip differential programmable gain amplifiers, two track-and-hold
amplifiers, and two successive approximation analog-to-digital
converters with a serial interface with two separate data output
pins. The AD7264 also includes four on-chip comparators. The
part is housed in a 48-lead LFCSP or 48-lead LQFP package,
offering the user considerable space-saving advantages over
alternative solutions. The AD7264 requires a low voltage 5 V ±
5% AVCC to power the ADC core and supply the digital power, a
2.7 V to 5.25 V CA_CBVCC, CC_CDVCC supply for the comparators,
and a 2.7 V to 5.25 V VDRIVE supply for interface power.
The on-board PGA allows the user to select from 14 programmable gain stages: ×1, ×2, ×3, ×4, ×6, ×8, ×12, ×16, ×24, ×32,
×48, ×64, ×96, and ×128. The PGA accepts fully differential
analog signals. The gain can be selected either by setting the
logic state of the G0 to G3 pins or by programming the control
register.
The serial clock input accesses data from the part while also
providing the clock source for each successive approximation
ADC. The AD7264 has an on-chip 2.5 V reference that can be
disabled when an external reference is preferred. If the internal
reference is used elsewhere in a system, the output from VREFA
and VREFB must first be buffered. If the internal reference is the
preferred option, the user must tie the REFSEL pin to a logic
high voltage. Alternatively, if REFSEL is tied to GND, an
external reference can be supplied to both ADCs through the
VREFA and VREFB pins (see the Reference section).
The AD7264 also features a range of power-down options to
allow the user great flexibility with the independent circuit
components while allowing for power savings between conversions. The power-down feature is implemented via the control
register or the PD0 to PD2 pins, as described in the Control
Register section.
COMPARATORS
The AD7264 has four on-chip comparators. Comparator A and
Comparator B have ultralow power consumption, with static
power consumption typically less than 10 μW with a 3.3 V
supply. Comparator C and Comparator D feature very fast
propagation delays of 130 ns for a 200 mV differential overdrive.
These comparators have push-pull output stages that operate
from the VDRIVE supply. This feature allows operation with a
minimum amount of power consumption.
Each pair of comparators operates from its own independent
supply, CA_CBVCC or CC_CDVCC. The comparators are specified
for supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.25 V. If desired, CA_CBVCC
and CC_CDVCC can be tied to the AVCC supply. The four comparators on the AD7264 are functional with CA_CBVCC, CC_CDVCC
greater than or equal to 1.8 V. However, no specifications are
guaranteed for comparator supplies less than 2.7 V. The wide
range of supply voltages ensures that the comparators can be
used in a variety of battery backup modes.
The four on-chip comparators on the AD7264 are ideally suited
for monitoring signals from pole sensors in motor control
systems. The comparators can be used to monitor signals from
Hall effect sensors or the inner tracks from an optical encoder.
One of the comparators can be used to count the index marker
or z marker, which is used on startup to place the motor in a
known position.
OPERATION
The AD7264 has two successive approximation ADCs, each
based around two capacitive DACs and two programmable gain
amplifiers.
The ADC itself comprises control logic, a SAR, and two capacitive
DACs. The control logic and the charge redistribution DACs are
used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge from the sampling capacitor amplifiers to bring the comparator back into a
balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the
conversion is complete. The control logic generates the ADC
output code.
Each ADC is preceded by its own programmable gain stage.
The PGA features high analog input impedance, true differential
analog inputs that allow the output from any source or sensor to
be connected directly to the PGA inputs without any requirement
for additional external buffering. The variable gain settings ensure
that the device can be used for amplifying signals from a variety
of sources. The AD7264 offers the flexibility to choose the most
appropriate gain setting to utilize the wide dynamic range of
the device.
ANALOG INPUTS
Each ADC in the AD7264 has two high impedance differential
analog inputs. Figure 24 shows the equivalent circuit of the
analog input structure of the AD7264. It consists of a fully
differential input amplifier that buffers the analog input signal
and provides the gain selected by using the gain pins.
The two diodes provide ESD protection. Care must be taken
to ensure that the analog input signals never exceed the supply
rails by more than 300 mV. This causes these diodes to become
forward-biased and to start conducting current into the substrate. These diodes can conduct up to 10 mA without causing
irreversible damage to the part. The C1 capacitors in Figure 24

When a full-scale step input is applied to either differential
input on the AD7264 while the other analog input is held at a
constant voltage, 3 μs of settling time is typically required prior
to capturing a stable digital output code.
Transfer Function
The AD7264 output is twos complement; the ideal transfer
function is shown in Figure 25. The designed code transitions
occur at successive integer LSB values (that is, 1 LSB, 2 LSB, and
so on). The LSB size is dependent on the analog input range
selected.

VDRIVE
The AD7264 has a VDRIVE feature to control the voltage at which
the serial interface operates. VDRIVE allows the ADC and the
comparators to easily interface to both 3 V and 5 V processors.
For example, when the AD7264 is operated with AVCC = 5 V, the
VDRIVE pin can be powered from a 3 V supply, allowing a large
analog input range with low voltage digital processors.
REFERENCE
The AD7264 can operate with either the internal 2.5 V on-chip
reference or an externally applied reference. The logic state of
the REFSEL pin determines whether the internal reference is
used. The internal reference is selected for both ADCs when the
REFSEL pin is tied to logic high. If the REFSEL pin is tied to
AGND, an external reference can be supplied through the VREFA
and/or VREFB pins. On power-up, the REFSEL pin must be tied to
either a low or high logic state for the part to operate. Suitable
reference sources for the AD7264 include the AD780, AD1582,
ADR431, REF193, and ADR391.
The internal reference circuitry consists of a 2.5 V band gap reference and a reference buffer. When operating the AD7264 in
internal reference mode, the 2.5 V internal reference is available at
the VREFA and VREFB pins, which should be decoupled to AGND
using a 1 μF capacitor. It is recommended that the internal reference be buffered before applying it elsewhere in the system. The
internal reference is capable of sourcing up to 90 μA of current
when the converter is static. If internal reference operation is
required for the ADC conversion, the REFSEL pin must be tied
to logic high on power-up. The reference buffer requires 240 μs
to power up and charge the 1 μF decoupling capacitor during
the power-up time.

pin driven mode. Both circuit configurations illustrate the use
of the internal 2.5 V reference.
TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAMS
Figure 26 and Figure 27 are typical connection diagrams for the
AD7264. In these configurations, the AGND pin is connected
to the analog ground plane of the system, and the DGND pin is
connected to the digital ground plane of the system. The analog
inputs on the AD7264 are true differential and have an input
impedance in excess of 1 GΩ; thus, no driving op amps are
required. The AD7264 can operate with either an internal or an
external reference. In Figure 26, the AD7264 is configured to
operate in control register mode; thus, G0 to G3, PD1, and PD2
can be connected to ground (low logic state). Figure 27 has the
gain pins configured for a gain of 2 setup; thus, the device is in
ANALOG
SUPPLY
The CA_CBVCC and CC_CDVCC pins can be connected to either a
3 V or 5 V supply voltage. The AVCC pin must be connected to
a 5 V supply. All supplies should be decoupled with a 100 nF
capacitor at the device pin, and some supply sources may
require a 10 μF capacitor where the source is supplied to the
circuit board. The VDRIVE pin is connected to the supply voltage
of the microprocessor. The voltage applied to the VDRIVE input
controls the voltage of the serial interface. VDRIVE can be set to
3 V or 5 V.

Comparator Application Details
The comparators on the AD7264 have been designed with no
internal hysteresis, allowing users the flexibility to add external
hysteretic if required for systems operating in noisy environments.
If the comparators on the AD7264 are used with external hysteresis, some external resistors and capacitors are required, as
shown in Figure 28. The value of RF and RS, the external resistors,
can be determined using the following equation, depending on
the amount of hysteresis required in the application:
VHYS =
RS
× C X _C XVCC
RS + R F
The amount of hysteresis chosen must be sufficient to eliminate
the effects of analog noise at the comparator inputs, which may
affect the stability of the comparator outputs. The level of
hysteresis required in any system depends on the noise in the
system; thus, the value of RF and RS needs to be carefully selected
to eliminate any noise effects. To increase the level of hysteresis in
the system, increase the value of RS or RF. For example, RF = 10 MΩ,
RS = 1 kΩ gives 330 μV of hysteresis with a Cx_CxVCC of 3.3 V; if
hysteresis is increased to 1 mV, RS = 3.1 kΩ. In certain applications,
a load capacitor (100 pF) may be required on the comparator
outputs to suppress high frequency transient glitches.

The two simultaneous sampling ADCs are used to sample the
sine and cosine outputs from the sensor. No external buffering
is required between the sensor/transducer and the analog inputs
of the AD7264. The on-chip comparators can be used to
monitor the pole sensors, which can be Hall effect sensors or
the inner tracks from an optical encoder.

APPLICATION DETAILS
The AD7264 has been specifically designed to meet the requirements of any motor control shaft position feedback loop. The
device can interface directly to multiple sensor types, including
optical encoders, magnetoresistive sensors, and Hall effect sensors.
Its flexible analog inputs, which incorporate programmable
gain, ensure that identical board design can be utilized for a

application. An optical encoder is shown in Figure 29, but other
sensor types could as easily be used. Figure 29 indicates a

configurations that render equally effective results.

MODES OF OPERATION
The AD7264 allows the user to choose between two modes of
operation: pin driven mode and control register mode.
PIN DRIVEN MODE
Pin driven mode allows the user to select the gain of the PGA,
the power-down mode, internal or external reference, and to
initiate a calibration of the offset for both ADC A and ADC B.
These functions are implemented by setting the logic levels on
the gain pins (G3 to G0), the power-down pins (PD2 to PD0),
the REFSEL pin, and the CAL pin, respectively.
The logic state of the G3 to G0 pins determines which mode of
operation is selected. Pin driven mode is selected if at least one
of the gain pins is set to a logic high state. Alternatively, if all
four gain pins are connected to a logic low, the control register
mode of operation is selected.
GAIN SELECTION
The on-board PGA allows the user to select from 14 programmable gain stages: ×1, ×2, ×3, ×4, ×6, ×8, ×12, ×16, ×24, ×32,
×48, ×64, ×96, and ×128. The PGA accepts fully differential
analog signals and provides three key functions, which include
selecting gains for small amplitude input signals, driving the
ADCs switched capacitive load, and buffering the source from
the switching effects of the SAR ADCs. The AD7264 offers the
user great flexibility in user interface, offering gain selection via
the control register or by driving the gain pins to the desired
logic state. The AD7264 has four gain pins, G3, G2, G1 and G0,
as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4. Each gain setting is selected
by setting up the appropriate logic state on each of the four gain
pins, as outlined in Table 6. If all four gain pins are connected to
a logic low level, the part is put in control register mode, and
the gain settings are selected via the control register.

POWER-DOWN MODES
The AD7264 offers the user several of power-down options to
enable individual device components to be powered down
independently. These options can be chosen to optimize power
dissipation for different application requirements. The powerdown modes can be selected by either programming the device
via the control register or by driving the PD pins to the
appropriate logic levels. By setting the PD pins to a logic low
level when in pin driven mode, all four comparators and both
ADCs can be powered down. The PD2 and PD0 pins must be
set to logic high and the PD1 pin set to logic low level to power
up all circuitry on the AD7264. The PD pin configurations for
the various power-down options are outlined in Table 7.

PD2 = PD1 = PD0 = 1; resets the AD7264 when in pin driven mode only.
The AVCC and VDRIVE supplies must continue to be supplied to
the AD7264 when the comparators are powered up but the
ADCs are powered down. External diodes can be used from the
CA_CBVCC and/or CC_CDVCC to both the AVCC and the VDRIVE
supplies to ensure that they retain a supply at all times.
The AD7264 can be reset in pin driven mode only by setting the
PD pins to a logic high state. When the device is reset, all the
registers are cleared and the four comparators and the two
ADCs are left powered down.
In the normal mode of operation with the ADCs and comparators powered on, the CA_CBVCC/CC_CDVCC supplies and the
AVCC supply can be at different voltage levels, as indicated in
Table 1. When the comparators on the AD7264 are in powerdown mode and the CA_CBVCC/CC_CDVCC supplies are at a
potential 0.3 V greater than or less than the AVCC supply, the
supplies consume more current than would be the case if both
sets of supplies were at the same potential. This configuration
does not damage the AD7264 but results in additional current
flowing in any or all of the AD7264 supply pins. This is due to
ESD protection diodes within the device. In applications where
power consumption in power-down mode is critical, it is
recommended that the CA_CBVCC/CC_CDVCC supply and the
AVCC supply be held at the same potential.

Power-Up Conditions
to a low logic state. These functions can also be implemented by
setting the logic levels on the gain pins, power-down pins, and
CAL pin, respectively. The control register can also be used to
read the offset and gain registers.
On power-up, the status of the gain pins determines which
mode of operation is selected, as outlined in the Gain Selection
section. All registers are set to 0.
Data is loaded from the PD0/DIN pin of the AD7264 on the
falling edge of SCLK when CS is in a logic low state. The control
register is selected by first writing the appropriate four WR bits,
as outlined in Table 10. The 12 data bits must then be clocked
into the control register of the device. Thus, on the 16th falling
SCLK edge, the LSB is clocked into the device. One more SCLK
cycle is then required to write to the internal device registers. In
total, 17 SCLK cycles are required to successfully write to the
AD7264. The data is transferred on the PD0/DIN line while the
conversion result is being processed. The data transferred on
the DIN line corresponds to the AD7264 configuration for the
next conversion.
If the AD7264 is powered up in pin driven mode, the gain pins
and the PD pins should be configured to the appropriate logic
states and a calibration initiated if required.
Alternatively, if the AD7264 is powered up in control register
mode, the comparators and ADCs are powered down and the
default gain is 1. Thus, powering up in control register mode
requires a write to the device to power up the comparators and
the ADCs.
It takes the AD7264 15 μs to power up when using an external
reference. When the internal reference is used, 240 μs are required
to power up the AD7264 with a 1 μF decoupling capacitor.
CONTROL REGISTER
Only the information provided on the 12 falling clock edges after
the CS falling edge and the initial four write address bits is loaded
to the control register. The PD0/DIN pin should have a logic low
state for the four bits RD3 to RD0 when using the control register
to select the power-down modes and gain setting, or when initializing a calibration. The RD bits should also be set to a logic low
level to access the ADC results from both DOUTA and DOUTB.
The control register on the AD7264 is a 12-bit read and write
register that is used to control the device when not in pin driven
mode. The PD0/DIN pin serves as the serial DIN pin for the
AD7264 when the gain pins are set to 0 (that is, the part is not in
pin driven mode). The control register can be used to select the
gain of the PGAs, the power-down modes, and the calibration
of the offset for both ADC A and ADC B. When in the control
register mode of operation, PD1 and PD2 should be connected
The power-up status of all bits is 0, and the MSB denotes the first
bit in the data stream. The bit functions are outlined in Table 9.

Writing to a Register
Data is loaded from the PD0/DIN pin of the AD7264 on the
falling edge of SCLK when CS is in a logic low state. Four
address bits and 12 data bits must be clocked into the device.
Thus, on the 16th falling SCLK edge, the LSB is clocked into the
AD7264. One more SCLK cycle is then required to write to the
internal device registers. In total, 17 SCLK cycles are required to

Reading from a Register
The internal offset of the device, which has been measured by
the AD7264 and stored in the on-chip registers during the
calibration, can be read back by the user. The contents of the
external gain registers can also be read. To read the contents of
any register, the user must first write to the control register by
writing 0001 to the WR3 to WR0 bits via the PD0/DIN pin (see
Table 10). The next four bits in the control register are the RD
bits, which are used to select the desired register from which to
read. The appropriate 4-bit addresses for each of the offset and
gain registers are listed in Table 11. The remaining eight SCLK
cycle bits are used to set the remaining bits in the control
register to the desired state for the next ADC conversion.
When writing to a register, the user must first write the address
bits corresponding to the selected register. Table 11 shows the
decoding of the address bits. The four RD bits are written MSB
first, that is, RD3 followed by RD2, RD1, and RD0. The AD7264
decodes these bits to determine which register is being addressed.
The subsequent 12 bits of data are written to the addressed register.
The 19th SCLK falling edge clocks out the first data bit of the
digital code corresponding to the value stored in the selected
internal device register on the DOUTA pin. DOUTB outputs the
conversion result from ADC B. When the selected register has
been read, the control register must be reset to output the ADC
results for future conversions. This is achieved by writing 0001
to the WR3 to WR0 bits, followed by 0000 to the RD bits. The
remaining eight bits in the control register should then be set to
the required configuration for the next ADC conversion.
When writing to the external gain registers, the seven bits of
data immediately after the four address bits are written to the
register. However, 17 SCLK cycles are still required, and the
PD0/DIN pin of the AD7264 should be tied low for the five
additional clock cycles.

access time (t4) is 23 ns, which enables reading on the subsequent falling SCLK edge after the data has been clocked out, as
described previously. However, if a VDRIVE voltage of 3 V is used
for the AD7264 and the setup time of the microcontroller or
DSP is too large to enable reading on the falling SCLK edge, it
may be necessary to read on the SCLK rising edge. In this case,
the MSB of the conversion result is clocked out on the 19th SCLK
falling edge to be read on the 20th SCLK rising edge, as shown in
Figure 35. This is possible because the hold time (t5) is longer for
lower VDRIVE voltages. If the data access time is too long to accommodate the setup time of the chosen processor, an alternative to
reading on the rising SCLK edge is to use a slower SCLK frequency.
Figure 33 and Figure 34 show the detailed timing diagrams for
the serial interface on the AD7264. The serial clock provides the
conversion clock and controls the transfer of information from
the AD7264 after the conversion. The AD7264 has two output
pins corresponding to each ADC. Data can be read from the
AD7264 using both DOUTA and DOUTB. Alternatively, a single
output pin of the user’s choice can be used. The SCLK input
signal provides the clock source for the serial interface.
The falling edge of CS puts the track-and-hold into hold mode,
at which point the analog input is sampled. The conversion is
also initiated at this point and requires a minimum of 19 SCLK
cycles to complete. The DOUTx lines remain in three-state while
the conversion is taking place. On the 19th SCLK falling edge, the
AD7264 returns to track mode and the DOUTA and DOUTB lines
are enabled. The data stream consists of 14 bits of data, MSB first.
On the rising edge of CS, DOUTA and DOUTB go back into threestate. If CS is not brought high after 33 SCLK cycles but is instead
held low for an additional 14 SCLK cycles, the data from ADC B
is output on DOUTA after the ADC A result. Likewise, the data
from ADC A is output on DOUTB after the ADC B result. This is
illustrated in Figure 34, which shows the DOUTA example. In this
case, the DOUT line in use goes back into three-state on the 47th
SCLK falling edge or the rising edge of CS, whichever occurs first.
The MSB of the conversion result is clocked out on the 19th
SCLK falling edge to be read by the microcontroller or DSP on
the subsequent SCLK falling edge (the 20th falling edge). The
remaining data is then clocked out by subsequent SCLK falling
edges. Thus, the 20th falling clock edge on the serial clock has
the MSB provided and also clocks out the second data bit. The
remainder of the 14-bit result follows, with the final bit in the
data transfer being valid for reading on the 33rd falling edge.
The LSB is provided on the 32nd falling clock edge.
If the falling edge of SCLK coincides with the falling edge of CS,
the falling edge of SCLK is not acknowledged by the AD7264,
and the next falling edge of SCLK is the first one registered after
the falling edge of CS.
The AD7264-5, with its 20 MHz SCLK frequency, easily
facilitates reading on the SCLK falling edge. When using a
VDRIVE voltage of 5 V with the AD7264, the maximum specified

AD7264
CALIBRATION
The AD7264 registers store the offset value, which can easily be
accessed by the user (see the Reading from a Register section).
When the device is calibrating, the differential analog inputs
for each respective ADC are shorted together internally and a
conversion is performed. A digital code representing the offset is
stored internally in the offset registers, and subsequent conversion results have this measured offset removed.
INTERNAL OFFSET CALIBRATION
The AD7264 allows the user to calibrate the offset of the device
using the CAL pin. This is achieved by setting the CAL pin to a
high logic level, which initiates a calibration on the next CS
falling edge. The calibration requires one full conversion cycle,
which contains a CS falling edge followed by 19 SCLK cycles.
The CAL pin can remain high for more than one conversion, if
desired, and the AD7264 continues to calibrate.
When the AD7264 is calibrated, the calibration results stored in
the internal device registers are relevant only for the particular
PGA gain selected at the time of calibration. If the PGA gain is
changed, the AD7264 must be recalibrated. If the device is not
recalibrated when the PGA gain is changed, the offset for the
previous gain setting continues to be removed from the digital
output code, which may lead to inaccuracies.
The CAL pin should be driven high only when the CS pin is
high or after 19 SCLK cycles have elapsed when CS is low, that
is, between conversions. The CAL pin must be driven high t12
before CS goes low. If the CS pin goes low before t12 elapses, the
calibration result will be inaccurate for the current conversion;
if the CAL pin remains high, the subsequent calibration conversion is correct. If the CAL pin is set to a logic high state during a
conversion, that conversion result is corrupted.
The offset range that can be calibrated for is ±500 LSB at a gain
of 1. The maximum offset voltage that can be calibrated for is
reduced as the gain of the PGA is increased.
If the CAL pin has been held high for a minimum of one
conversion and when t12 and t11 have been adhered to, the
calibration is complete after the 19th SCLK cycle and the CAL
pin can be driven to a logic low state. The next CS falling edge
after the CAL pin has been driven to a low logic state initiates
a conversion of the differential analog input signal for both
ADC A and ADC B.
Table 12 details the maximum offset voltage that can be
removed by the AD7264 without compromising the available
digital output code range. The least significant bit size is
AVCC/2Bits, which is 5/16,384 or 305 μV for the AD7264. The
maximum removable offset voltage is given by
± 500 LSB ×
Alternatively, the control register can be used to initiate an
offset calibration. This is done by setting the CAL bit in the
control register to 1. The calibration is then initiated on the next
CS falling edge, but the current conversion is corrupted. The
ADCs on the AD7264 must remain fully powered up to
complete the internal calibration.

ADJUSTING THE OFFSET CALIBRATION REGISTER
SYSTEM GAIN CALIBRATION
The internal offset calibration register can be adjusted manually
to compensate for any signal path offset from the sensors to the
ADC. No internal calibration is required, and the CAL pin can
remain at a low logic state. By changing the contents of the
offset register, different amounts of offset on the analog input
signal can be compensated for. Use the following steps to
determine the digital code to be written to the offset register:
The AD7264 also allows the user to write to an external gain
register, thus enabling the removal of any overall system gain
error. Both ADC A and ADC B have independent external gain
registers, allowing the user to calibrate independently the gain
on both ADC A and ADC B signal paths. The gain calibration
feature can be used to implement accurate gain matching
between ADC A and ADC B.
Configure the sensor to its offset state.
Perform a number of conversions using the AD7264.
Take the mean digital output code from both DOUTA and
DOUTB. This is a 14-bit result but the offset register is only
12 bits; thus, the 14-bit result needs to be converted to a
12-bit result that can be stored in the offset register. This is
achieved by keeping the sign bit and removing the second
and third MSBs.
The resultant digital code can then be written to the offset
registers to calibrate the AD7264.
The system calibration function is used by setting the sensors to
which the AD7264 is connected to a 0 gain state. The AD7264
converts this analog input to a digital output code, which
corresponds to the system gain and is available on the DOUT pins,
This digital output code can then be stored in the appropriate
external register. For details on how to write to a register, see the
Writing to a Register section and Table 11.

The gain calibration register contains seven bits of data. By
changing the contents of the gain register, different amounts of
gain on the analog input signal can be compensated for. The
MSB is a sign bit, while the remaining six bits store the multiplication factor, which is used to adjust the analog input range. The
gain register value is effectively multiplied by the analog input
to scale the conversion result over the full range. Increasing the
gain register multiplication factor compensates for a larger
analog input range, and decreasing the gain register multiplier
compensates for a smaller analog input range. Each bit in the
gain calibration register has a resolution of 2.4 × 10−4 V (1/4096).
A maximum of 1.538% of the analog range can be calibrated for.
The multiplier factor stored in the gain register can be decoded
as outlined in Table 13.
Example:
Mean digital code from DOUTA = 8100 (01 1111 1010 0100)
Code written to offset register = 0111 1010 0100
If a +10 mV offset is present in the analog input signal and the
gain of the PGA is 2, the code that needs to be written to the
offset register to compensate for the offset is
+10 mV
= 65.57 = 0000 0100 0001
(305 μV/ 2)
If a −10 mV offset is present in the analog input signal and the
gain of the PGA is 2, the code that needs to be written to the
offset register to compensate for the offset is
The gain registers can be cleared by writing all 0s to each register,
as described in the Writing to a Register section. For accurate
gain calibration, both the positive and negative full-scale digital
output codes should be measured prior to determining the
multiplication factor that is written to the gain register.

AD7264
APPLICATION HINTS
GROUNDING AND LAYOUT
The analog and digital supplies to the AD7264 are independent
and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between the
analog and digital sections of the device. The printed circuit
board (PCB) that houses the AD7264 should be designed so
that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined
to certain areas of the board. This design facilitates the use of
ground planes that can be easily separated.
To provide optimum shielding for ground planes, a minimum
etch technique is generally best. All five AGND pins of the
AD7264 should be sunk in the AGND plane. Digital and analog
ground planes should be joined in only one place. If the AD7264
is in a system where multiple devices require an AGND to
DGND connection, the connection should still be made at only
one point, a star ground point, that should be established as
close as possible to the ground pins on the AD7264.
Avoid running digital lines under the device because this
couples noise onto the die. However, the analog ground plane
should be allowed to run under the AD7264 to avoid noise
coupling. The power supply lines to the AD7264 should use as
large a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and
reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line.
To avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, fast
switching signals, such as clocks, should be shielded with digital
ground, and clock signals should never run near the analog
inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. To reduce
the effects of feedthrough within the board, traces on opposite
sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. A
microstrip technique is the best method but is not always possible
with a double-sided board. In this technique, the component
side of the board is dedicated to ground planes, while signals are
placed on the solder side.
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should
be decoupled with 10 μF tantalum capacitors in parallel with
100 nF capacitors to GND. To achieve the best results from
these decoupling components, they must be placed as close as
possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. The
0.1 μF capacitors should have low effective series resistance
(ESR) and low effective series inductance (ESI), such as the
common ceramic types or surface-mount types. These low ESR
and low ESI capacitors provide a low impedance path to ground
at high frequencies to handle transient currents due to internal
logic switching.
PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR LFCSP
The lands on the chip scale package (CP-48-1) are rectangular.
The PCB pad for these should be 0.1 mm longer than the
package land length, and 0.05 mm wider than the package land
width, leaving a portion of the pad exposed. To ensure that the
solder joint size is maximized, the land should be centered on
the pad.
The bottom of the chip scale package has a thermal pad. The
thermal pad on the PCB should be at least as large as the
exposed pad. On the PCB, there should be a clearance of at least
0.25 mm between the thermal pad and the inner edges of the
pad pattern to ensure that shorting is avoided.
To improve thermal performance of the package, use thermal
vias on the PCB, incorporating them in the thermal pad at 1.2 mm
pitch grid. The via diameter should be between 0.3 mm and
0.33 mm, and the via barrel should be plated with 1 oz copper
to plug the via. The user should connect the PCB thermal pad
to AGND.
