The LTC®2323-14 is a low noise, high speed dual 14‑bit +
sign successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with
differential inputs and wide input common mode range.
Operating from a single 3.3V or 5V supply, the LTC2323-14
has an 8VP-P differential input range, making it ideal for
applications which require a wide dynamic range with high
common mode rejection. The LTC2323-14 achieves ±1LSB
INL typical, no missing codes at 14 bits and 80dB SNR.
The LTC2323-14 has an onboard low drift (20ppm/°C max)
2.048V or 4.096V temperature-compensated reference.
The LTC2323-14 also has a high speed SPI-compatible
serial interface that supports CMOS or LVDS. The fast
5Msps per channel throughput with one-cycle latency
makes the LTC2323-14 ideally suited for a wide variety of
high speed applications. The LTC2323-14 dissipates only
38mW per channel and offers nap and sleep modes to
reduce the power consumption to 5μW for further power
savings during inactive periods.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground.
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below ground, or above VDD
or OVDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle
input currents up to 100mA below ground, or above VDD or OVDD, without
latch-up.
Note 4: VDD = 5V, OVDD = 2.5V, REFOUT1,2 = 4.096V, fSMPL = 5MHz.
Note 5: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 6: 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 7: Bipolar zero error is the offset voltage measured from –0.5LSB
when the output code flickers between 000 0000 0000 0000 and 111 1111
1111 1111. Full-scale bipolar error is the worst-case of –FS or +FS untrimmed deviation from ideal first and last code transitions and includes
the effect of offset error.

Note 8: All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale ±4.096V input
with REFIN = 4.096V.
Note 9: When REFOUT1,2 is overdriven, the internal reference buffer must
be turned off by setting REFINT = 0V.
Note 10: fSMPL = 5MHz, IREFBUF varies proportionally with sample rate.
Note 11: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 12: Parameter tested and guaranteed at OVDD = 1.71V and
OVDD = 2.5V.
Note 13: tSCK of 9.4ns maximum allows a shift clock frequency up to
105MHz for rising edge capture.
Note 14: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range.
Note 15: CNV is driven from a low jitter digital source, typically at OVDD
logic levels. This input pin has a TTL style input that will draw a small
amount of current.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
CONVERTER OPERATION
The LTC2323-14 is a low noise, high speed 14-bit + sign
dual successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with
differential inputs and wide input common mode range.
The flexible analog inputs support fully differential, pseudodifferential bipolar and pseudo-differential unipolar drive
without requiring any hardware configuration. The MSB
of the 14-bit + sign two’s complement output indicates
the sign of the differential analog input voltage.
The LTC2323-14 operates in two phases. During the
acquisition phase, the sample capacitor is connected to
the analog input pins AIN+ and AIN – to sample the differential analog input voltage, as shown in Figure 3. A
falling edge on the CNV pin initiates a conversion. During the conversion phase, the 15-bit CDAC is sequenced
through a successive approximation algorithm for each
input SCK pulse, effectively comparing the sampled input
with binary-weighted fractions of the reference voltage
(e.g., VREFOUT/2, VREFOUT/4 … VREFOUT/8192) using a
differential comparator. At the end of conversion, a CDAC
output approximates the sampled analog input. The ADC
control logic then prepares the 15-bit digital output code
for serial transfer.
OUTPUT CODE (TWO’S COMPLEMENT)
The ADC’s transfer function provides 15 bits of resolution
across the full-scale span of 2 • REFOUT, as shown in
Figure 2. If the analog input spans less than this full-scale,
such as in the case of pseudo-differential drive, the ADC
provides 14 bits of resolution across this reduced span,
with the additional benefit of digitizing over and underrange conditions, as shown in Table 1. This unique feature
is particularly useful in control-loop applications.
011 1111 1111 1111
TRANSFER FUNCTION
The LTC2323-14 digitizes the full-scale voltage of 2 •
REFOUT into 215 levels, resulting in a 15-bit resolution
size of 250µV with REFBUF = 4.096V. The ideal transfer
function is shown in Figure 2. The output data is in 2’s
complement format. When driven by fully differential inputs, the transfer function spans 215 codes. When driven
by pseudo differential inputs, the transfer function spans
214 codes.

Single-ended signals can be directly digitized by the
LTC2323-14. These signals should be sensed pseudodifferentially for improved common mode rejection. By
connecting the reference signal (e.g., ground sense) of
the main analog signal to the other AIN pin, any noise or
disturbance common to the two signals will be rejected
by the high CMRR of the ADC. The LTC2323-14 flexibility
handles both pseudo-differential unipolar and bipolar signals, with no configuration required. The wide common
mode input range relaxes the accuracy requirements of
any signal conditioning circuits prior to the analog inputs.
Analog Input
The differential inputs of the LTC2323-14 provide great
flexibility to convert a wide variety of analog signals with
no configuration required. The LTC2323-14 digitizes the
difference voltage between the AIN+ and AIN – pins while
supporting a wide common mode input range. The analog
input signals can have an arbitrary relationship to each
other, provided that they remain between VDD and GND.
The LTC2323-14 can also digitize more limited classes of
analog input signals such as pseudo-differential unipolar/
bipolar and fully differential with no configuration required.
Pseudo-Differential Bipolar Input Range
The pseudo-differential bipolar configuration represents
driving one of the analog inputs at a fixed voltage, typically
VREF /2, and applying a signal to the other AIN pin. In this
case the analog input swings symmetrically around the
fixed input yielding bipolar two’s complement output codes
with an ADC span of half of full-scale. This configuration
is illustrated in Figure 4, and the corresponding transfer
function in Figure 5. The fixed analog input pin need not
be set at VREF /2, but at some point within the VDD rails
allowing the alternate input to swing symmetrically around
this voltage. If the input signal (AIN+ – AIN –) swings beyond
±REFOUT/2, valid codes will be generated by the ADC and
must be clamped by the user, if necessary.
The analog inputs of the LTC2323-14 can be modeled
by the equivalent circuit shown in Figure 3. The back-toback diodes at the inputs form clamps that provide ESD
protection. In the acquisition phase, 10pF (CIN) from the
sampling capacitor in series with approximately 15Ω
(RON) from the on-resistance of the sampling switch is
connected to the input. Any unwanted signal that is common to both inputs will be reduced by the common mode
rejection of the ADC sampler. The inputs of the ADC core
draw a small current spike while charging the CIN capacitors during acquisition.

Pseudo-Differential Unipolar Input Range
The pseudo-differential unipolar configuration represents
driving one of the analog inputs at ground and applying a
signal to the other AIN pin. In this case, the analog input
swings between ground and VREF yielding unipolar two’s
complement output codes with an ADC span of half of
full-scale. This configuration is illustrated in Figure 6, and
the corresponding transfer function in Figure 7. If the input
signal (AIN+ – AIN –) swings negative, valid codes will be
generated by the ADC and must be clamped by the user,
if necessary.
Single-Ended-to-Differential Conversion
While single-ended signals can be directly digitized as previously discussed, single-ended to differential conversion
circuits may also be used when higher dynamic range is
desired. By producing a differential signal at the inputs of
the LTC2323-14, the signal swing presented to the ADC is
maximized, thus increasing the achievable SNR.
The LT®1819 high speed dual operational amplifier is
recommended for performing single-ended-to-differential
conversions, as shown in Figure 8. In this case, the first
amplifier is configured as a unity-gain buffer and the
single-ended input signal directly drives the high impedance input of this amplifier.
Fully-Differential Inputs
To achieve the full distortion performance of the LTC2323-14,
a low distortion fully-differential signal source driven
through the LT1819 configured as two unity-gain buffers,
as shown in Figure 9, can be used. This circuit achieves
the full data sheet THD specification of –85dB at input

rejection filter between the ADC and the signal source to
eliminate the op amp as the dominant source of distortion.
on each AIN pin, yielding a signal span for each AIN pin of
4.096VP-P. This leaves ~0.9V of common mode variation
tolerance. When using external references, it is possible
to increase common mode tolerance by compressing the
ADC full-range codes into a tighter range. For example,
using an external 2.048V reference with VDD = 5V the total
span would be ±2.048V and each AIN span would be limited to 2.048VP-P allowing a common mode range of ~3V.
Compressing the input span would incur a SNR penalty
of approximately 2dB. Input span compression may be
useful if single-supply analog input drivers are used which
cannot swing rail-to-rail. The fully-differential configuration
is illustrated in Figure 10, with the corresponding transfer
function illustrated in Figure 11.
The fully-differential configuration yields an analog input
span (AIN+ – AIN –) of ±REFOUT. In this configuration, the
input signal is driven on each AIN pin, typically at equal
spans but opposite polarity. This yields a high common
mode rejection on the input signals. The common mode
voltage of the analog input can be anywhere within the VDD
input range, but will be limited by the peak swing of the
full-range input signal. For example, if the internal reference is used with VDD = 5VDC, the full-range input span
will be ±4.096V. Half of the input span is typically driven

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
A low impedance source can directly drive the high impedance inputs of the LTC2323-14 without gain error. A
high impedance source should be buffered to minimize
settling time during acquisition and to optimize the distortion performance of the ADC. Minimizing settling time
is important even for DC inputs, because the ADC inputs
draw a current spike when during acquisition.
For best performance, a buffer amplifier should be used to
drive the analog inputs of the LTC2323-14. The amplifier
provides low output impedance to minimize gain error
and allow for fast settling of the analog signal during the
acquisition phase. It also provides isolation between the
signal source and the ADC inputs, which draw a small
current spike during acquisition.
Input Filtering
The noise and distortion of the buffer amplifier and signal
source must be considered since they add to the ADC noise
and distortion. Noisy input signals should be filtered prior
to the buffer amplifier input with a low bandwidth filter
to minimize noise. The simple 1-pole RC lowpass filter
shown in Figure 12 is sufficient for many applications.
The input resistor divider network, sampling switch onresistance (RON) and the sample capacitor (CIN) form a
second lowpass filter that limits the input bandwidth to the
ADC core to 110MHz. A buffer amplifier with a low noise
density must be selected to minimize the degradation of
the SNR over this bandwidth.

High quality capacitors and resistors should be used in the
RC filters since these components can add distortion. NPO
and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent
linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can generate
distortion from self heating and from damage that may
occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount resistors
are much less susceptible to both problems.
ADC REFERENCE
Internal Reference
The LTC2323-14 has an on-chip, low noise, low drift
(20ppm/°C max), temperature compensated bandgap
reference. It is internally buffered and is available at
REFOUT1,2 (Pins 12, 26). The reference buffer gains
the internal reference voltage to 4.096V for supply voltages VDD = 5V and to 2.048V for VDD = 3.3V. Bypass
REFOUT1,2 to REFRTN1,2 with the parallel combination
of a 0.1µF (X7R, 0402 size) capacitor and a 10μF (X5R,
0805 size) ceramic capacitor to compensate the reference
buffer and minimize noise. The 0.1µF capacitor should
be as close as possible to the LTC2323-14 package to
minimize wiring inductance. Tie the REFINT pin to VDD to
enable the internal reference buffer.

External Reference
The internal reference buffer can also be overdriven from
1.25V to 5V with an external reference at REFOUT1,2
as shown in Figure 13 (b and c). To do so, REFINT must
be grounded to disable the reference buffer. A 55k internal
resistance loads the REFOUT1,2 pins when the reference
buffer is disabled. To maximize the input signal swing
and corresponding SNR, the LTC6655-5 is recommended
when overdriving REFOUT1,2. The LTC6655-5 offers the
same small size, accuracy, drift and extended temperature
range as the LTC6655-4.096. By using a 5V reference, a
higher SNR can be achieved. We recommend bypassing
the LTC6655-5 with a parallel combination of a 0.1µF
(X7R, 0402 size) ceramic capacitor and a 10μF ceramic
capacitor (X5R, 0805 size) close to each of the REFOUT1,2
and REFRTN1,2 pins.
Internal Reference Buffer Transient Response
The REFOUT1,2 pins of the LTC2323-14 draw charge
(QCONV) from the external bypass capacitors during each
conversion cycle. If the internal reference buffer is overdriven, the external reference must provide all of this charge
with a DC current equivalent to IREF = QCONV/tCYC.
Thus, the DC current draw of REFOUT1,2 depends
on the sampling rate and output code. In applications

periods, as shown in Figure 14 , IREFBUF quickly goes
from approximately ~75µA to a maximum of 500µA for
REFOUT1,2 = 5V at 5Msps. This step in DC current draw
triggers a transient response in the external reference
that must be considered since any deviation in the voltage at REFOUT1,2 will affect the accuracy of the output
code. Due to the one-cycle conversion latency, the first
conversion result at the beginning of a burst sampling
period will be invalid. If an external reference is used to
overdrive REFOUT1,2 the fast settling LTC6655 reference
is recommended.

Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD)
The signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency and the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the A/D output. The output is bandlimited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 16 shows that the LTC2323-14 achieves
a typical SINAD of 79dB at a 5MHz sampling rate with a
2.2MHz input.
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio between the
RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and
the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components
except the first five harmonics and DC. Figure 16 shows
that the LTC2323-14 achieves a typical SNR of 80dB at a
5MHz sampling rate with a 2.2MHz input.

Fast Fourier transform (FFT) techniques are used to test
the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise at the
rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine wave
and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm,
the ADC’s spectral content can be examined for frequencies outside the fundamental. The LTC2323-14 provides
guaranteed tested limits for both AC distortion and noise
measurements.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
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 (fSMPL /2).
THD is expressed as:
V22 + V32 + V42 +…+ VN 2
THD= 20log
V1
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental
frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics.
POWER CONSIDERATIONS
The LTC2323-14 requires two power supplies: the 5V
power supply (VDD), and the digital input/output interface
power supply (OVDD). The flexible OVDD supply allows
the LTC2323-14 to communicate with any digital logic
operating between 1.8V and 2.5V. When using LVDS I/O,
the OVDD supply must be set to 2.5V.
Power Supply Sequencing
The LTC2323-14 does not have any specific power supply sequencing requirements. Care should be taken to
adhere to the maximum voltage relationships described
in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section. The LTC232314 has a power-on-reset (POR) circuit that will reset the
LTC2323-14 at initial power-up or whenever the power
supply voltage drops below 2V. Once the supply voltage
re-enters the nominal supply voltage range, the POR will
reinitialize the ADC. No conversions should be initiated
until 10ms after a POR event to ensure the reinitialization
period has ended. Any conversions initiated before this
time will produce invalid results.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TIMING AND CONTROL
Nap/Sleep Modes
CNV Timing
Nap mode is a method to save power without sacrificing
power-up delays for subsequent conversions. Sleep mode
has substantial power savings, but a power-up delay is
incurred to allow the reference and power systems to
become valid. To enter nap mode on the LTC2323-14,
the SCK signal must be held high or low and a series of
two CNV pulses must be applied. This is the case for both
CMOS and LVDS modes. The second rising edge of CNV
initiates the nap state. The nap state will persist until either
a single rising edge of SCK is applied, or further CNV pulses
are applied. The SCK rising edge will put the LTC2323-14
back into the operational (full-power) state. When in nap
mode, two additional pulses will put the LTC2323-14 in
sleep mode. When configured for CMOS I/O operation, a
single rising edge of SCK can return the LTC2323-14 into
operational mode. A 10ms delay is necessary after exiting
sleep mode to allow the reference buffer to recharge the
external filter capacitor. In LVDS mode, exit sleep mode
by supplying a fifth CNV pulse. The fifth pulse will return
the LTC2323-14 to operational mode, and further SCK
pulses will keep the part from re-entering nap and sleep
modes. The fifth SCK pulse also works in CMOS mode
as a method to exit sleep. In the absence of SCK pulses,
repetitive CNV pulses will cycle the LTC2323-14 between
operational, nap and sleep modes indefinitely.
The LTC2323-14 sampling and conversion is controlled
by CNV. A rising edge on CNV will start sampling and the
falling edge starts the conversion and readout process. The
conversion process is timed by the SCK input clock. For
optimum performance, CNV should be driven by a clean
low jitter signal. The Typical Application at the back of the
data sheet illustrates a recommended implementation to
reduce the relatively large jitter from an FPGA CNV pulse
source. Note the low jitter input clock times the falling edge
of the CNV signal. The rising edge jitter of CNV is much
less critical to performance. The typical pulse width of the
CNV signal is 30ns at a 5Msps conversion rate.
SCK Conversion/Readout Input Clock
The falling edge of this clock shifts the conversion result
MSB first onto the SDO pins. A 105MHz external clock must
be applied at the SCK pin to achieve 5Msps throughput.
CLKOUT Readout Output Clock
The CLKOUT output provides a skew-matched clock to
latch the SDO output at the receiver. The timing skew
of the CLKOUT and SDO outputs are matched. For high
throughput applications, using CLKOUT instead of SCK
to capture the SDO output eases timing requirements at
the receiver. For low throughput applications, CLKOUT+
can be disabled by tying CLKOUT– to OVDD.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The LTC2323-14 features a serial digital interface that
is simple and straight forward to use. The flexible OVDD
supply allows the LTC2323-14 to communicate with any
digital logic operating between 1.8V and 2.5V. A 105MHz
external clock must be applied at the SCK pin to achieve
5Msps throughput.
In addition to a standard CMOS SPI interface, the
LTC2323‑14 provides an optional LVDS SPI interface to
support low noise digital design. The CMOS/LVDS pin is
used to select the digital interface mode.
The falling edge of SCK outputs the conversion result MSB
first on the SDO pins. CLKOUT provides a skew-matched
clock to latch the SDO output at the receiver. The timing
LTC2323-14
OVDD
skew of the CLKOUT and SDO outputs are matched. For
high throughput applications, using CLKOUT instead of
SCK to capture the SDO output eases timing requirements
at the receiver.
In CMOS mode, use the SDO1+, SDO2+ and CLKOUT+ pins
as outputs. Use the SCK+ pin as an input. Do not connect
the SDO1–, SDO2–, SCK– and CLKOUT– pins, as they each
have internal pull-down circuitry to OGND.
In LVDS mode, use the SDO1+/SDO1–, SDO2+/SDO2– and
CLKOUT+/CLKOUT– pins as differential outputs. These
pins must be differentially terminated by an external 100Ω
resistor at the receiver (FPGA). The SCK+/SCK– pins are
differential inputs and must be terminated differentially by
an external 100Ω resistor at the receiver (ADC).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BOARD LAYOUT
Recommended Layout
To obtain the best performance from the LTC2323-14,
a printed circuit board is recommended. Layout for the
printed circuit board (PCB) should ensure the digital and
analog signal lines are separated as much as possible.
In particular, care should be taken not to run any digital
clocks or signals adjacent to analog signals or underneath
the ADC.
The following is an example of a recommended PCB layout.
A single solid ground plane is used. Bypass capacitors to
the supplies are placed as close as possible to the supply
pins. Low impedance common returns for these bypass
capacitors are essential to the low noise operation of the
ADC. The analog input traces are screened by ground.
For more details and information, refer to the DC1996,
the evaluation kit for the LTC2323-14.
