GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 measure electro cardiac (ECG)
signals, thoracic impedance, pacing artifacts, and lead-on/off
status and output this information in the form of a data frame
supplying either lead/vector or electrode data at programmable
data rates. Its low power and small size make it suitable for
portable, battery-powered applications. The high performance
also makes it suitable for higher end diagnostic machines.
Rev. B
The ADAS1000-4 is a full-featured, 3-channel ECG including
respiration and pace detection, while the ADAS1000-3 offers
only ECG channels with no respiration or pace features.
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are designed to simplify
the task of acquiring and ensuring quality ECG signals.
They provide a low power, small data acquisition system for
biopotential applications. Auxiliary features that aid in better
quality ECG signal acquisition include: multichannel averaged
driven lead, selectable reference drive, fast overload recovery,
flexible respiration circuitry returning magnitude and phase
information, internal pace detection algorithm operating
on three leads, and the option of ac or dc lead-off detection.
Several digital output options ensure flexibility when monitoring and analyzing signals. Value-added cardiac post processing
is executed externally on a DSP, microprocessor, or FPGA.
Because ECG systems span different applications, the
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 feature a power/noise scaling
architecture where the noise can be reduced at the expense
of increasing power consumption. Signal acquisition channels
may be shut down to save power. Data rates can be reduced to
save power.
To ease manufacturing tests and development as well as offer
holistic power-up testing, the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
offer a suite of features, such as dc and ac test excitation via
the calibration DAC and CRC redundancy testing in addition
to readback of all relevant register address space.
The input structure is a differential amplifier input thereby
allowing users a variety of configuration options to best suit
their application.
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are available in two package
options: either a 56-lead LFCSP or a 64-lead LQFP package;
they are specified over −40°C to +85°C temperature range.

NOTES
1. PINS LABELED NC CAN BE ALLOWED TO FLOAT, BUT IT IS BETTER TO
CONNECT THESE PINS TO GROUND. AVOID ROUTING HIGH SPEED
SIGNALS THROUGH THESE PINS BECAUSE NOISE COUPLING
MAY RESULT.
2. THE EXPOSED PAD IS ON THE TOP OF THE PACKAGE;
IT IS CONNECTED TO THE MOST NEGATIVE POTENTIAL, AGND.

Description
Analog Supply. See recommendations for bypass capacitors in the Power Supply,
Grounding, and Decoupling Strategy section.
Digital Supply for Digital Input/Output Voltage Levels. See recommendations for
bypass capacitors in the Power Supply, Grounding, and Decoupling Strategy section.
Analog Supply for ADC. There is an on-chip linear regulator providing the supply
voltage for the ADCs. These pins are primarily provided for decoupling purposes;
however, the pin may also be supplied by an external 1.8 V supply should the user wish
to use a more efficient supply to minimize power dissipation. In this case, use the
VREG_EN pin tied to ground to disable the ADCVDD and DVDD regulators. The
ADCVDD pin should not be used to supply other functions. See recommendations for
bypass capacitors in the Power Supply, Grounding, and Decoupling Strategy section.
Digital Supply. There is an on-chip linear regulator providing the supply voltage for the
digital core. These pins are primarily provided for decoupling purposes; however, the
pin may also be overdriven supplied by an external 1.8 V supply should the user wish to
use a more efficient supply to minimize power dissipation. In this case, use the
VREG_EN pin tied to ground to disable the ADCVDD and DVDD regulators. See
recommendations for bypass capacitors in the Power Supply, Grounding, and
Decoupling Strategy section.

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
In a 3-lead system, the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 can be
arranged to provide Lead I, Lead II, and Lead III data or
electrode data directly via the serial interface at all frame
rates. Note that in 128 kHz data rate, lead data is only available
when configured in analog lead mode. Digital lead mode is not
available for this data rate.
can be achieved using one ADAS1000-3 or ADAS1000-4
device ganged together with one ADAS1000-2 slave device
as described in the Gang Mode Operation section. Similarly,
a 12-lead (10-electrode) system can be achieved using one
ADAS1000 or ADAS1000-1 device ganged together with one
ADAS1000-2 slave device as described in the Gang Mode
Operation section. Here, nine ECG electrodes and one RLD
electrode achieve the 10 electrode system, again leaving one
spare ECG channel that could be used for alternate purposes
as suggested previously. In such a system, having nine dedicated electrodes benefits the user by delivering lead information
based on electrode measurements and calculations rather than
deriving leads from other lead measurements.
Should the user have a need for increased electrode counts, then
there are other products within the ADAS1000 family that may
be suitable. For example, a derived 12-lead (8-electrode) system
Table 10 outlines the calculation of the leads (vector) from the
individual electrode measurements when using either the
ADAS1000-3 or ADAS1000-4.
ECG INPUTS—ELECTRODES/LEADS
21B
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 ECG product consists of three
ECG inputs and a reference drive, RLD (right leg drive). In
a typical 3-lead/vector application, three of the ECG inputs
(ECG3_RA, ECG1_LA, ECG2_LL) are used in addition to the
RLD path.

Rev. B | Page 27 of 80
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
Data Sheet
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 implementation uses a dccoupled approach, which requires that the front end be biased
to operate within the limited dynamic range imposed by the
relatively low supply voltage. The right leg drive loop performs
this function by forcing the electrical average of all selected
electrodes to the internal 1.3 V level, VCM_REF, maximizing
each channel’s available signal range.
ECG CHANNEL
The ECG channel consists of a programmable gain, low noise,
differential preamplifier; a fixed gain anti-aliasing filter; buffers;
and an ADC (see Figure 54). Each electrode input is routed to
its PGA noninverting input. Internal switches allow the PGA’s
inverting inputs to be connected to other electrodes and/or
the Wilson Central Terminal to provide differential analog
processing (analog lead mode), to a computed average of some
or all electrodes, or to the internal 1.3 V common-mode
reference (VCM_REF). The latter two modes support digital
lead mode (leads computed on-chip) and electrode mode (leads
calculated off-chip). In all cases, the internal reference level is
removed from the final lead data.
All ECG channel amplifiers use chopping to minimize 1/f noise
contributions in the ECG band. The chopping frequency of
~250 kHz is well above the bandwidth of any signals of interest.
The 2-pole anti-aliasing filter has ~65 kHz bandwidth to support
digital pace detection while still providing greater than 80 dB
of attenuation at the ADC’s sample rate. The ADC is a 14-bit,
2 MHz SAR converter; 1024 × oversampling helps achieve the
required system performance. The ADC’s full-scale input range
is 2 × VREF, or 3.6 V, although the analog portion of the ECG
channel limits the useful signal swing to about 2.8 V. The
ADAS1000 contains flags to indicate whether the ADC data is
out of range, indicating a hard electrode off state. Programmable
overrange and underrange thresholds are shown in the LOFFUTH
and LOFFLTH registers (see Table 39 and Table 40, respectively).
The ADC out of range flag is contained in the header word (see
Table 53).

Digital Lead Mode and Calculation
ELECTRODE/LEAD FORMATION AND INPUT
STAGE CONFIGURATION
When the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are configured for digital
lead mode (see the FRMCTL register, 0x0A[4], Table 37), the
digital core will calculate each lead from the electrode signals.
This is straightforward for Lead I/ Lead II/Lead III. Calculating
V1’ and V2’ requires WCT, which is also computed internally
for this purpose. This mode ignores the common-mode
configuration specified in the CMREFCTL register
(Register 0x05). Digital lead calculation is only available in
2 kHz and 16 kHz data rates (see Figure 57).
The input stage of the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 can be
arranged in several different manners. The input amplifiers
are differential amplifiers and can be configured to generate
the leads in the analog domain, before the ADCs. In addition
to this, the digital data can be configured to provide either
electrode or lead format under user control as described in
Table 37. This allows maximum flexibility of the input stage
for a variety of applications.
Electrode Mode: Single-Ended Input Electrode
Configuration
Analog Lead Mode and Calculation
Leads are configured in the analog input stage when CHCONFIG
= 1, as shown in Figure 56. This uses a traditional in-amp
structure where lead formation is performed prior to digitization, with WCT created using the common-mode amplifier.
While this results in the inversion of Lead II in the analog
domain, this is digitally corrected so output data have the
proper polarity.
In this mode, the electrode data are digitized relative to the
common-mode signal, VCM, which can be arranged to be any
combination of the contributing ECG electrodes. Commonmode generation is controlled by the CMREFCTL register
as described in Table 32 (see Figure 59).
Electrode Mode: Common Electrode A and Common
Electrode B Configurations
In this mode, all electrodes are digitized relative to a common
electrode (CE), for example, RA. Standard leads must be calculated
by post processing the output data of the ADAS1000/
ADAS1000-1/ADAS1000-2 (see Figure 58 and Figure 60).

DEFIBRILLATOR PROTECTION
ESIS FILTERING
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 do not include defibrillation
protection on chip. Any defibrillation protection required by
the application requires external components. Figure 61 and
Figure 62 show examples of external defibrillator protection,
which is required on each ECG channel, in the RLD path, and
in the CM_IN path if using the CE input mode. Note that, in
both cases, the total ECG path resistance is assumed to be 5 kΩ.
The 22 MΩ resistors shown connected to RLD are optional and
used to provide a safe termination voltage for an open ECG
electrode; they may be larger in value. Note that, if using these
resistors, the dc lead-off feature works best with the highest
current setting.
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 do not include electrosurgical
interference suppression (ESIS) protection on chip. Any ESIS
protection required by the application requires external
components.
As shown in Figure 63, signal paths for numerous functions are
provided on each ECG channel (except respiration, which only
connects to the ECG1_LA, ECG2_LL, and ECG3_RA pins).
Note that the channel enable switch occurs after the RLD
amplifier connection, thus allowing the RLD to be connected
(redirected into any one of the ECG paths). The CM_IN path is
treated the same as the ECG signals.

electrode is buffered, these buffers are omitted for clarity.
COMMON-MODE SELECTION AND AVERAGING
The common-mode signal can be derived from any combination of one or more electrode channel inputs, the fixed internal
common-mode voltage reference, VCM_REF, or an external
source connected to the CM_IN pin. One use of the latter
arrangement is in gang mode where the master device creates
the Wilson Central Terminal for the slave device(s). The fixed
reference option is useful when measuring the calibration DAC
test tone signals or while attaching electrodes to the patient,
where it allows a usable signal to be obtained from just two
electrodes.
There are several restrictions on the use of the switches:



If SW1 is closed, SW7 must be open.
If SW1 is open, at least one electrode switch (SW2 to SW7)
must be closed.
SW7 can be closed only when SW2 to SW6 are open, so
that the 1.3 V VCM_REF is summed in only when all ECG
channels are disconnected.
The CM_OUT output is not intended to supply current or drive
resistive loads, and its accuracy is degraded if it is used to drive
anything other than the slave ADAS1000-2 devices. An external
buffer is required if there is any loading on the CM_OUT pin.
The flexible common-mode generation allows complete
user control over the contributing channels. It is similar to,
but independent of, circuitry that creates the right leg drive
(RLD) signal. Figure 64 shows a simplified version of the

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
In some cases, adding lead compensation will prove necessary,
while in others lag compensation may be more appropriate. The
RLD amplifier’s summing junction is brought out to a package
pin (RLD_SJ) to facilitate compensation.
WILSON CENTRAL TERMINAL (WCT)
The flexibility of the common-mode selection averaging allows
the user to achieve a Wilson Central Terminal voltage from the
ECG1_LA, ECG2_LL, ECG3_RA electrodes.
The RLD amplifier’s short circuit current capability exceeds
regulatory limits. A patient protection resistor is required to
achieve compliance.
RIGHT LEG DRIVE/REFERENCE DRIVE
The right leg drive amplifier or reference amplifier is used as
part of a feedback loop to force the patient’s common-mode
voltage close to the internal 1.3 V reference level (VCM_REF)
of the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4. This centers all the electrode
inputs relative to the input span, providing maximum input
dynamic range. It also helps to reject noise and interference
from external sources such as fluorescent lights or other
patient-connected instruments, and absorbs the dc or ac
lead-off currents injected on the ECG electrodes.
Within the RLD block, there is lead-off comparator circuitry
that monitors the RLD amplifier output to determine whether
the patient feedback loop is closed. An open-loop condition,
typically the result of the right leg electrode (RLD_OUT)
becoming detached, tends to drive the amplifier’s output
low. This type of fault is flagged in the header word (see
Table 53), allowing the system software to take action by
notifying the user, redirecting the reference drive to another
electrode via the internal switches of the ADAS1000-3/
ADAS1000-4, or both. The detection circuitry is local to the
RLD amplifier and remains functional with a redirected
reference drive. Table 32 provides details on reference drive
redirection.
The RLD amplifier can be used in a variety of ways as shown
in Figure 65. Its input can be taken from the CM_OUT signal
using an external resistor. Alternatively, some or all of the
electrode signals can be combined using the internal switches.
The dc gain of the RLD amplifier is set by the ratio of the
external feedback resistor (RFB) to the effective input resistor,
which can be set by an external resistor, or alternatively, a
function of the number of selected electrodes as configured in
the CMREFCTL register (see Table 32). In a typical case, using
the internal resistors for RIN, all active electrodes would be used
to derive the right leg drive, resulting in a 2 kΩ effective input
resistor. Achieving a typical dc gain of 40 dB would thus require
a 200 kΩ feedback resistor.
While reference drive redirection may be useful in the event
that the right leg electrode cannot be reattached, some precautions must be observed. Most important is the need for a
patient protection resistor. Because this is an external resistor,
it does not follow the redirected reference drive; some provision
for continued patient protection is needed external to the
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4. Any additional resistance in the
ECG paths will certainly interfere with respiration measurement and may also result in an increase in noise and decrease
in CMRR.
The dynamics and stability of the RLD loop depend on the
chosen dc gain and the resistance and capacitance of the
patient cabling. In general, loop compensation using
external components is required, and must be determined
experimentally for any given instrument design and cable set.
The RLD amplifier is designed to stably drive a maximum
capacitance of 5 nF based on the gain configuration (see
Figure 65) and assuming a 330 kΩ patient protection resistor.

Data Sheet
CALIBRATION DAC
Within the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4, there are a number of
calibration features.
The 10-bit calibration DAC can be used to correct channel gain
errors (to ensure channel matching) or to provide several test
tones. The options are as follows:
•
•
•
DC voltage output (range: 0.3 V to 2.7 V). The DAC
transfer function for dc voltage output is

code 
0.3 V +  2.4 V× 10

(2 − 1) 

1 mV p-p sine wave of 10 Hz or 150 Hz
1 mV 1 Hz square wave
Internal switching allows the calibration DAC signals to be
routed to the input of each ECG channel (see Figure 63).
Alternatively, it can be driven out from the CAL_DAC_IO
pin, enabling measurement and correction for external error
sources in the entire ECG signal chain.
To ensure a successful update of the calibration DAC (see
Table 36), the host controller must issue four additional SCLK
cycles after writing the new calibration DAC register word.
GAIN CALIBRATION
The gain for each ECG channel can be adjusted to correct
for gain mismatches between channels. Factory trimmed
gain correction coefficients are stored in nonvolatile memory
on-chip for GAIN 0, GAIN 1, and GAIN 2; there is no factory
calibration for GAIN 3. The default gain values can be overwritten by user gain correction coefficients, which are stored
in volatile memory and available by addressing the appropriate
gain control registers (see Table 50). The gain calibration applies
to the ECG data available on the standard interface and applies
to all data rates.
LEAD-OFF DETECTION
degrade. The user has full control over the common-mode
amplifier and can adjust the common-mode configuration to
remove that electrode from the common-mode generation. In
this way, the user can continue to make measurements on the
remaining connected leads.
DC Lead-Off Detection
This method injects a small programmable dc current into each
input electrode. When an electrode is properly connected, the
current flows into the right leg (RLD_OUT) and produces a
minimal voltage shift. If an electrode is off, the current charges
that pin’s capacitance, causing the voltage at the pin to float
positive and create a large voltage change that is detected by
the comparators in each channel. These comparators use fixed,
gain-independent upper and lower threshold voltages of 2.4 V
and 0.2 V, respectively. If the input exceeds either of these levels,
the lead-off flag is raised. The lower threshold is included in the
event that something pulls the electrode down to ground.
The dc lead-off detection current can be programmed via the
serial interface. Typical currents range from 10 nA to 70 nA in
10 nA steps. All input pins (RA, LA, LL, V1, V2, and CM_IN)
use identical dc lead-off detection circuitry.
Detecting if the right-leg electrode has fallen off is necessarily
different as RLD_OUT is a low impedance amplifier output. A
pair of fixed threshold comparators monitor the output voltage
to detect amplifier saturation that would indicate a lead-off
condition. This information is available in the DCLEAD-OFF
register (Register 0x1E) along with the lead-off status of all the
input pins.
The propagation delay for detecting a dc lead-off event depends
on the cable capacitance and the programmed current. It is
approximately
Delay = Voltage × Cable Capacitance/Programmed Current
For example:
Delay = 1.2 V × (200 pF/70 nA) = 3.43 ms
An ECG system must be able to detect if an electrode is no
longer connected to the patient. The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
support two methods of lead-off detection, ac lead-off detection
and dc lead-off detection. The two systems are independent and
can be used singly or together under the control of the serial
interface (see Table 29).
A lead-off event sets a flag in the frame header word (see Table 53).
Identification of which electrode is off is available as part of the
data frame or as a register read from the lead-off status register
(Register LOFF, see Table 47). In the case of ac lead-off, information about the amplitude of the lead-off signal or signals can
be read back through the serial interface (see Table 51).
In a typical ECG configuration, the electrodes RA, LA, and LL
are used to generate a common mode of Wilson Central Terminal
(WCT). If one of these electrodes is off, this affects the WCT
signal and any lead measurements that it contributes to. As a
result, the ECG measurements on these signals are expected to
DC Lead-Off and High Gains
Using dc lead-off at high gains can result in failure of the circuit
to flag a lead-off condition. The chopping nature of the input
amplifier stage contributes to this situation. When the electrode
is off, the electrode is pulled up; however, in this gain setting,
the first stage amplifier goes into saturation before the input
signal crosses the DCLO upper threshold, resulting in no leadoff flag. This affects the gain setting GAIN 3 (4.2) and partially
GAIN 2 (2.8).
Increasing the AVDD voltage raises the voltage at which the input
amplifiers saturate, allowing the off electrode voltage to rise high
enough to trip the DCLO comparator (fixed upper threshold of
2.4 V). The ADAS1000 operates over a voltage range of 3.15 V
to 5.5 V. If using GAIN 2/GAIN 3 and dc lead-off, an increased
AVDD supply voltage (minimum 3.6 V) allows dc lead-off to
flag correctly at higher gains.

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
AC Lead-Off Detection
The alternative method of sensing if the electrodes are
connected to the patient is based on injecting ac currents into
each channel and measuring the amplitudes of the resulting
voltages. The system uses a fixed carrier frequency at 2.039 kHz,
which is high enough to be removed by the ADAS1000-3/
ADAS1000-4 on-chip digital filters without introducing phase
or amplitude artifacts into the ECG signal.

case, there is no ac signal present, yet the electrode may not be
connected. The lower threshold checks for a minimum signal level.
In addition to the lead-off flag, the user can also read back the
resulting voltage measurement available on a per channel basis.
The measured amplitude for each of the individual electrodes is
available in Register 0x31 through Register 0x35 (LOAMxx
registers, see Table 51).
The propagation delay for detecting an ac lead-off event is
<10 ms.
Note that the ac lead-off function is disabled when the
calibration DAC is enabled.

Figure 66. Simplified AC Lead-Off Configuration
The amplitude of the signal is nominally 2 V p-p and is centered
on 1.3 V relative to the chip AGND level. It is ac-coupled into each
electrode. The polarity of the ac lead-off signal can be configured
on a per-electrode basis through Bits[23:18] of the LOFFCTL
register (see Table 29). All electrodes can be driven in phase, and
some can be driven with reversed polarity to minimize the total
injected ac current. Drive amplitude is also programmable. AC
lead-off detection functions only on the input pins (LA, LL, RA,
and CM_IN) and is not supported for the RLD_OUT pin.
The resulting analog input signal applied to the ECG channels is
I/Q demodulated and amplitude detected. The resulting amplitude
is low pass filtered and sent to the digital threshold detectors.
AC lead-off detection offers user programmable dedicated
upper and lower threshold voltages (see Table 39 and Table 40).
Note that these programmed thresholds voltage vary with the
ECG channel gain. The threshold voltages are not affected by
the current level that is programmed. All active channels use
the same detection thresholds.
A properly connected electrode has a very small signal as the
drive current flows into the right leg (RL), whereas a disconnected
electrode has a larger signal as determined by a capacitive
voltage divider (source and cable capacitance).
If the signal measured is larger than the upper threshold, then
the impedance is high, so a wire is probably off. Selecting the
appropriate threshold setting depends on the particular cable/
electrode/protection scheme, as these parameters are typically
unique for the specific use case. This can take the form of starting
with a high threshold and ratcheting it down until a lead-off is
detected, then increasing the threshold by some safety margin.
This gives simple dynamic thresholding that automatically
compensates for many of the circuit variables.
The lower threshold is added for cases where the only ac lead-off
is in use and for situations where an electrode cable has been off
for a long time. In this case, the dc voltage has saturated to a rail,
or the electrode cable has somehow shorted to a supply. In either
When multiple leads are off, the input amplifiers may run into
saturation. This results in the ADC outputting out of range data
with no carrier to the leads off algorithm. The ac lead-off algorithm
then reports little or no ac amplitude. The ADAS1000 contains
flags to indicate if the ADC data is out of range, indicating a hard
electrode off state. There are programmable overrange and underrange thresholds that can be seen in the LOFFUTH and LOFFLTH
registers (see Table 39 and Table 40, respectively). The ADC out
of range flag is contained in the header word (see Table 53).
SHIELD DRIVER
The shield drive amplifier is a unity-gain amplifier. Its purpose
is to drive the shield of the ECG cables. For power consumption
purposes, it can be disabled if not in use. Note that, the SHIELD
pin is shared with the respiration pin function, where it can be
muxed to be one of the pins for external capacitor connection.
If the pin is being used for the respiration feature, the shield
function is not available. In this case, if the application requires
a shield drive, an external amplifier connected to the CM_OUT
pin can be used.
RESPIRATION (ADAS1000-4 MODEL ONLY)
The respiration measurement is performed by driving a high
frequency (programmable from 46.5 kHz to 64 kHz) differential
current into two electrodes; the resulting impedance variation
caused by breathing causes the differential voltage to vary at the
respiration rate. The signal is ac-coupled onto the patient. The
acquired signal is AM, with a carrier at the driving frequency
and a shallow modulation envelope at the respiration frequency.
The modulation depth is greatly reduced by the resistance of the
customer-supplied RFI and ESIS protection filters, in addition
to the impedance of the cable and the electrode to skin interface
(see Table 12). The goal is to measure small ohm variation
to sub ohm resolution in the presence of large series resistance.
The circuit itself consists of a respiration DAC that drives the
ac-coupled current at a programmable frequency onto the
chosen pair of electrodes. The resulting variation in voltage
is amplified, filtered, and synchronously demodulated in the
digital domain; what results is a digital signal that represents
the total thoracic or respiration impedance, including cable and
electrode contributions. While it is heavily low-pass filtered
on-chip, the user is required to further process it to extract the

Internal Respiration Capacitors
envelope and perform the peak detection needed to establish
breathing (or lack thereof).
The internal respiration function uses an internal RC network
(5 kΩ/100 pF), and this circuit is capable of 200 mΩ resolution
(with up to 5 kΩ total path and cable impedance). The current
is ac-coupled onto the same pins that the measurement is
sensed back on. Figure 67 shows the measurement on Lead I,
but, similarly, the measurement can be configured to measure
on either Lead II or Lead III. The internal capacitor mode requires
no external capacitors and produces currents of ~64 μA p-p
amplitude when configured for maximum amplitude setting
(±1 V) through the RESPCTRL register (see Table 30).
Respiration measurement is available on one of the leads
(Lead I, Lead II, or Lead III) or on an external path via a
pair of dedicated pins (EXT_RESP_LA, EXT_RESP_RA, or
EXT_RESP_LL). Only one lead measurement can be made
at one time. The respiration measurement path is not suited
for use as additional ECG measurements because the internal
configuration and demodulation do not align with an ECG
measurement. The respiration signal processing path is not
reconfigurable for ECG measurements, as it is specifically
designed for the respiration signal measurement.

External Respiration Path
External Respiration Capacitors
The EXT_RESP_xx pins are provided for use either with the
ECG electrode cables or, alternatively, with a dedicated external
sensor independent of the ECG electrode path. Additionally, the
EXT_RESP_xx pins are provided so the user can measure the
respiration signal at the patient side of any input filtering on the
front end. In this case, the user must continue to take precautions
to protect the EXT_RESP_xx pins from any signals applied that
are in excess of the operating voltage range (for example, ESIS
or defibrillator signals).
If necessary, the ADAS1000-4 allows the user to connect
external capacitors into the respiration circuit to achieve higher
resolution (<200 mΩ). This level of resolution requires that the
cable impedance be ≤1 kΩ. The diagram in Figure 68 shows the
connections at RESPDAC_xx paths for the extended respiration
configuration. Again, the EXT_RESP_xx paths can be connected at the patient side of any filtering circuit; however, the
user must provide protection for these pins. While this external
capacitor mode requires external components, it can deliver a
larger signal-to-noise ratio. Note again that respiration can be
measured on only one lead (at one time); therefore, only one
pair of external respiration paths (and external capacitors) may
be required.

If required, further improvements in respiration performance
may be possible with the use of an instrumentation amplifier
and op amp external to the ADAS1000-4. The instrumentation
amplifier must have sufficiently low noise performance to meet
the target performance levels. This mode uses the external
capacitor mode configuration and is shown in Figure 69. Bit 14
of the RESPCTL register (Table 30) allows the user to bypass
the on-chip amplifier when using an external instrumentation
amplifier.
Respiration Carrier Frequency
The frequency of the respiration carrier is programmable and
can be varied through the RESPCTL register (Address 0x03, see
Table 30). The status of the HP bit in the ECGCTL register also
has an influence on the carrier frequency as shown in Table 13.

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
EVALUATING RESPIRATION PERFORMANCE
ECG simulators offer a convenient means of studying the
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4’s performance. While many
simulators offer a variable-resistance respiration capability,
care must be taken when using this feature.
Some simulators use electrically-programmable resistors, often
referred to as digiPOTs, to create the time-varying resistance
to be measured by the respiration function. The capacitances
at the digitPOT's terminals are often unequal and codedependent, and these unbalanced capacitances can give rise
to unexpectedly large or small results on different leads for
the same programmed resistance variation. Best results are
obtained with a purpose-built fixture that carefully balances
the capacitance presented to each ECG electrode.
PACING ARTIFACT DETECTION FUNCTION
(ADAS1000-4 ONLY)
The pacing artifact validation function qualifies potential
pacing artifacts and measures the width and amplitude of valid
pulses. These parameters are stored in and available from any of
the pace data registers (Address 0x1A, Address 0x3A to Address
0x3C). This function runs in parallel with the ECG channels.
Digital detection is performed using a state machine operating
on the 128 kHz 16-bit data from the ECG decimation chain.
The main ECG signals are further decimated before appearing
in the 2 kHz output stream so that detected pace signals are not
perfectly time-aligned with fully-filtered ECG data. This time
difference is deterministic and may be compensated for.
ECG data packet/frame as dictated by the frame control register
(see Table 37). The data available in the PACEDATA register
is limited to seven bits total for width and height information;
therefore, if more resolution is required on the pace height
and width, this is available by issuing read commands of the
PACExDATA registers (Address 0x3A to Address 0x3C) as
shown in Table 52.
The on-chip filtering contributes some delay to the pace signal
(see the Pace Latency section).
Choice of Leads
Three identical and independent state machines are available
and can be configured to run on up to three of four possible
leads (Lead I, Lead II, Lead III, and aVF) for pacing artifact
detection. Any necessary lead calculations are performed
internally and are independent of EGG channel settings for
output data rate, low-pass filter cutoff, and mode (electrode,
analog lead, common electrode). These calculations take into
account the available front-end configurations as detailed in
Table 15.
The pace detection algorithm searches for pulses by analyzing
samples in the 128 kHz ECG data stream. The algorithm
searches for a leading edge, a peak, and a trailing edge as
defined by values in the PACEEDGETH, PACEAMPTH, and
PACELVLTH registers, along with fixed width qualifiers. The
post-reset default register values can be overwritten via the SPI
bus, and different values can be used for each of the three pace
detection state machines.
Some users may not want to use three pace leads for detection.
In this case, Lead II is the vector of choice, because this lead is
likely to display the best pacing artifact. The other two pace
instances can be disabled if not in use.
The pacing artifact validation function can detect and
measure pacing artifacts with widths from 100 μs to 2 ms
and with amplitudes of <400 μV to >1000 mV. Its filters are
designed to reject heartbeat, noise, and minute ventilation
pulses. The flowchart for the pace detection algorithm is
shown in Figure 71.
The ADAS1000-4 pace algorithm can operate with the ac leadoff and respiration impedance measurement circuitry enabled.
Once a valid pace has been detected in the assigned leads, the
pace-detected flags appear in the header word (see Table 53) at
the start of the packet of ECG words. These bits indicate that a
pace was qualified. Further information on height and width of
pace is available by reading the contents of Address 0x1A (Register
PACEDATA, see Table 44). This word can be included in the
The first step in pace detection is to search the data stream for
a valid leading edge. Once a candidate edge has been detected,
the algorithm begins searching for a second, opposite-polarity
edge that meets with pulse width criteria and passes the
(optional) noise filters. Only those pulses meeting all the
criteria are flagged as valid pace pulses. Detection of a valid
pace pulse sets the flag(s) in the frame header register and
stores amplitude and width information in the PACEDATA
register (Address 0x1A; see Table 44). The pace algorithm
looks for a negative or positive pulse

Detection Algorithm Overview
START
The pace pulse amplitude and width varies over a wide range,
while its shape is affected by both the internal filtering arising
from the decimation process and the low pass nature of the
electrodes, cabling, and components used for defibrillation and
ESIS protection. The ADAS1000-4 provides user programmable
variables to optimize the performance of the algorithm within
the ECG system, given all these limiting elements. The default
parameter values are probably not optimal for any particular
system design; experimentation and evaluation are needed to
ensure robust performance.

The first step in pace detection is to search the data stream for a
valid leading edge. Once a candidate edge is detected, the algorithm
verifies that the signal looks like a pulse and then begins searching
for a second, opposite polarity edge that meets the pulse width
and amplitude criteria and passes the optional noise filters. Only
the pulses meeting all requirements are flagged as valid pace pulses.
Detection of a valid pace pulse sets the flag or flags in the frame
header register and stores amplitude and width information in
the PACEDATA register (Address 0x1A; see Table 34).
The pace algorithm detects pulses of both negative and positive
polarity using a single set of parameters by tracking the slope of
the leading edge and making the necessary adjustments to internal
parameter signs. This frees the user to concentrate on determining
appropriate threshold values based on pulse shape without
concern for pulse polarity.

(PACEEDGETH).

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
Data Sheet
Pace Edge Threshold
Pace Amplitude Threshold
This programmable level (Address 0x0E, see Table 41) is used to
find a leading edge, signifying the start of a potential pace pulse. A
candidate edge is one in which the leading edge crosses a threshold
PACEEDGETH from the recent baseline. PACEEDGETH can
be assigned any value between 0 and 255. Setting PACEEDGETH
to 0 forces it to the value PACEAMPTH/2 (see the following
equation). Non-zero values give the following:
This register (Address 0x07, see Table 34) sets the minimum
valid pace pulse amplitude. PACEAMPTH is an unsigned 8-bit
number. The programmed height is given by:
PACEEDGETH setting =
N × VREF
GAIN × 216
where:
N is the 8-bit programmed PACEEDGETH value (1 ≤ N ≤ 255).
VREF is the ADAS1000-4 reference voltage of 1.8 V.
GAIN is the programmed gain of the ECG channel.
The minimum threshold for ×1.4 gain is 19.6 µV, while the
maximum for the same gain setting is 5.00 mV.
Pace Level Threshold
This programmable level (Address 0x0F, see Table 42) is used to
detect when the leading edge of a candidate pulse ends. In general,
a pace pulse is not perfectly square, and the top, meaning the
portion after the leading edge, may continue to increase slightly
or droop back towards the baseline. PACELVLTH defines an
allowable slope for this portion of the candidate pulse, where
the slope is defined as the change in value over an internallyfixed interval after the pace edge is qualified.
PACELVLTH is an 8-bit, twos complement number. Positive
values represent movement away from the baseline (pulse
amplitude is still increasing) while negative values represent
droop back towards the baseline.
PACELVLTH setting =
N × VREF
GAIN × 216
where:
N is the 8-bit programmed PACELVLTH value (−128 ≤ N ≤ 127).
VREF is the ADAS1000-4 reference voltage of 1.8 V.
GAIN is the programmed gain of the ECG channel.
The minimum value for ×1.4 gain is 9.8 µV, while the maximum
for the same gain setting is 2.50 mV.
An additional qualification step, performed after PACELVLTH
is satisfied, rejects pulses with a leading edge transition time greater
than about 156 µs. This filter improves immunity to motion and
other artifacts and cannot be disabled. Overly aggressive ESIS
filtering causes this filter to disqualify valid pace pulses. In such
cases, increasing the value of PACEEDGETH provides more
robust pace pulse detection. Although counterintuitive, this
change forces a larger initial deviation from the recent baseline
before the pace detection algorithm starts, reducing the time
until PACELVLTH comes into play and shortening the apparent
leading edge transition. Increasing the value of PACEEDGETH
may require a reduction in PACEAMPTH.
PACEAMPTH setting =
2 × N × VREF
,
GAIN × 216
where:
N is the 8-bit programmed PACEAMPTH value (1 ≤ N ≤ 255).
VREF is the ADAS1000-4 reference voltage of 1.8 V.
GAIN is the programmed gain of the ECG channel.
The minimum threshold for ×1.4 gain is 19.6 µV, while the
maximum for the same gain setting is 5.00 mV. PACEAMPTH
is typically set to the minimum expected pace amplitude and
must be larger than the value of PACEEDGETH.
The default register setting of N = 0x24 results in 706 μV for a
gain = 1 setting. An initial PACEAMPTH setting between
700 µV and 1 mV provides a good starting point for both
unipolar and biventricular pacing detection. Values below
250 µV are not recommended because they greatly increase
sensitivity to ambient noise from the patient. The amplitude
may need to be adjusted much higher than 1 mV when other
medical devices are connected to the patient.
Pace Validation Filters
A candidate pulse that successfully passes the combined tests of
PACEEDGETH, PACELVLTH, and PACEAMPTH is next passed
through two optional validation filters. These filters are used to
reject sub-threshold pulses such as minute ventilation (MV) pulse
and signals from inductively coupled implantable telemetry
systems. These filters perform different tests of pulse shape
using a number of samples. Both filters are enabled by default;
Filter 1 is controlled by Bit 9 in the PACECTL register (see
Table 31) and Filter 2 is controlled by Bit 10 in the same register.
These filters are not available on a lead by lead basis; if enabled,
they are applied to all leads being used for pace detection.
Pace Width Filter
A candidate pulse that successfully passes the edge, amplitude, and
noise filters is finally checked for width. When this final filter is
enabled, it checks that the candidate pulse is between 100 μs
and 2 ms wide. When a valid pace width is detected, the width
is stored. Disabling this filter affects only the minimum width
(100 µs) determination; the maximum width detection portion
of the filter is always active. This filter is controlled by the
PACECTL register, Bit 11 (see Table 31).
Rev. B | Page 44 of 80
Data Sheet
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
BIVENTRICULAR PACERS
PACE WIDTH
As described previously, the pace algorithm expects the pace
pulse to be less than 2 ms wide. In a pacer where both ventricles
are paced, they can be paced simultaneously. Where they fall
within the width and height limits programmed into the algorithm, a valid pace will be flagged, but only one pace pulse may
be visible.
The ADAS1000-4 is capable of measuring pace widths of 100 μs
to 2.00 ms. The measured pace width is available through the
PACExDATA registers. These registers have limited resolution.
The minimum pace width is 101.56 μs and the maximum is
2.00 ms. The pace detection algorithm always returns a width
greater than what is measured at the 50% point, ensuring that
the algorithm is capable of measuring a narrow 100 μs pulse. A
valid pulse width of 100 μs is reported as 101.56 μs. Any valid
pace pulses ≥2.00 ms and ≤ 2.25 ms are reported as 2.00 ms.
With the pace width filter enabled, the pace algorithm seeks
pace pulse widths within a 100 μs to 2 ms window. Assuming
that this filter is enabled and in a scenario where two ventricle
pacer pulses fire at slightly different times, resulting in the pulse
showing in the lead as one large, wider pulse, a valid pace is
flagged so long as the total width does not exceed 2 ms.
PACE DETECTION MEASUREMENTS
Design verification of the ADAS1000-4 digital pace algorithm
includes detection of a range of simulated pace signals in
addition to using the ADAS1000-4 and evaluation board with
one pacemaker device connected to various simulated loads
(approximately 200 Ω to over 2 kΩ) and covering the following
four waveform corners.
•
•
•
•
Minimum pulse width (100 μs), minimum height (to
<300 μV)
Minimum pulse width (100 μs), maximum height (up to
1.0 V)
Maximum pulse width (2 ms), minimum height (to
<300 μV)
Maximum pulse width (2 ms), maximum height (up to
1.0 V)
These scenarios passed with acceptable results. The use of the
ac lead-off function had no obvious impact on the recorded
pace height, width, or the ability of the pace detection algorithm
to identify a pace pulse. The pace algorithm was also evaluated
with the respiration carrier enabled; again, no differences in the
threshold or pacer detect were noted from the carrier.
While these experiments validate the pace algorithm over a
confined set of circumstances and conditions, they do not
replace end system verification of the pacer algorithm. This
can be performed in only the end system, using the system
manufacturer’s specified cables and validation data set.
PACE LATENCY
The pace algorithm always examines 128 kHz, 16-bit ECG data,
regardless of the selected frame rate and ECG filter setting. A
pace pulse is qualified when a valid trailing edge is detected
and is flagged in the next available frame header. Pace and ECG
data is always correctly time-aligned at the 128 kHz frame rate,
but the additional filtering inherent in the slower frame rates
delays the frame's ECG data relative to the pace pulse flag.
These delays are summarized in Table 16 and must be taken
into account to enable correct positioning of the pace event
relative to the ECG data.
There is an inherent one-frame-period uncertainty in the exact
location of the pace trailing edge.
PACE DETECTION VIA SECONDARY SERIAL
INTERFACE
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 provide a second serial
interface for users to implement their own pace detection
schemes. This interface is configured as a master interface. It
provides ECG data at the 128 kHz data rate only. The purpose
of this interface is to allow the user to access the ECG data at a
rate sufficient to allow them to run their own pace algorithm,
while maintaining all the filtering and decimation of the ECG
data that the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 offer on the standard
serial interface (2 kHz and 16 kHz data rates). This dedicated
pace interface uses three of the four GPIO pins, leaving one
GPIO pin available even when the secondary serial interface is
enabled. Note that the on-chip digital calibration to ensure
channel gain matching does not apply to data that is available
on this interface. This interface is discussed in more detail in
the Secondary Serial Interface section.
EVALUATING PACE DETECTION PERFORMANCE
ECG simulators offer a convenient means of studying the performance and ability of the ADAS1000-4 to capture pace signals
over the range of widths and heights defined by the various
regulatory standards. While the pace detection algorithm of the
ADAS1000 is designed to conform to medical instrument
standards (pace widths of 100 μs to 2.00 ms and with
amplitudes of <400 μV to >1000 mV), some simulators put out
signals wider or narrower than called for in the standards. The
pace detection algorithm has been designed to measure a
maximum pace widths of 2 ms with a margin of 0.25 ms to
allow for simulator variations.

FILTERING
Figure 72 shows the ECG digital signal processing. The ADC
sample rate is programmable. In high performance mode, it
is 2.048 MHz; in low power mode, the sampling rate is reduced
to 1.024 MHz. The user can tap off framing data at one of three
data rates, 128 kHz, 16 kHz, or 2 kHz. Note that although the
data-word width is 24 bits for the 2 kHz and 16 kHz data rate,
the usable bits are 19 and 18, respectively.
The amount of decimation depends on the selected data rate,
with more decimation for the lower data rates.
Four selectable low-pass filter corners are available at the 2 kHz
data rate.
Filters are cleared by a reset. Table 16 shows the filter latencies
at the different data rates.

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 have a high performance,
low noise, on-chip 1.8 V reference for use in the ADC and
DAC circuits. The REFOUT of one device is intended to
drive the REFIN of the same device. The internal reference
is not intended to drive significant external current; for
optimum performance in gang operation with multiple
devices, each device should use its own internal reference.
An external 1.8 V reference can be used to provide the
required VREF. In such cases, there is an internal buffer
provided for use with external reference. The REFIN pin is a
dynamic load with an average input current of approximately
100 μA per enabled channel, including respiration. When the
internal reference is used, the REFOUT pin requires
decoupling with a 10 μF capacitor with low ESR (0.2 Ω
maximum) in parallel with 0.1 μF capacitor to REFGND,
these capacitors should be placed as close to the device pins
as possible and on the same side of the PCB as the device.
GANG MODE OPERATION
Increasing the number of ECG channels enables the user to
measure an increased number of patient electrodes. Typically
a 12-lead system would require nine electrodes (and one right
leg drive reference electrode), but a derived arrangement is
possible by using just eight electrodes (and one right leg drive
reference electrode). As such, mating a 5-electrode ADAS1000,
ADAS1000-1, or ADAS1000-2 with either a ADAS1000-3 or
ADAS1000-4 device delivers the required eight electrodes.
The approach used is a master slave arrangement, where one
device is designated as master, and any others are designated
as slaves. It is important that multiple devices operate well
together; with this in mind, the pertinent inputs/outputs to
interface between master and slave devices have been made
available.
Note that when using multiple devices, the user must collect
the ECG data directly from each device. If using a traditional
12-lead arrangement where the Vx leads are measured
relative to WCT, the user should configure the master device
in lead mode with the slave device configured for electrode
mode. The LSB size for electrode and lead data differs (see
Table 43 for details).
In gang mode, all devices must be operated in the same
power mode (either high performance or low power) and
the same data rate.
Master/Slave
Any of the ADAS1000, ADAS1000-1, ADAS1000-3, or
ADAS1000-4 can be configured as a master or slave, while
the ADAS1000-2 can only be configured as a slave. A device
is selected as a master or slave using Bit 5, master, in the
ECGCTL register (see Table 28). Gang mode is enabled by
setting Bit 4, gang, in the same register. When a device is
configured as a master, the SYNC_GANG pin is automatically set as an output.
When a device is configured as a slave (ADAS1000-2), the
SYNC_GANG and CLK_IO pins are set as inputs.
Synchronizing Devices
The ganged devices need to share a common clock to ensure
that conversions are synchronized. One approach is to drive
the slave CLK_IO pins from the master CLK_IO pin. Alternatively, an external 8.192 MHz clock can be used to drive
the CLK_IO pins of all devices. The CLK_IO powers up high
impedance until configured in gang mode.
In addition, the SYNC_GANG pin is used to synchronize
the start of the ADC conversion across multiple devices. The
SYNC_GANG pin is automatically driven by the master and
is an input to all the slaves. SYNC_GANG is in high
impedance until enabled via gang mode.
When connecting devices in gang mode, the SYNC_GANG
output is triggered once when the master device starts to
convert. Therefore, to ensure that the slave device(s) receive
this synchronization signal, configure the slave device first
for operation and enable conversions, followed by issuing the
conversion signal to the ECGCTL register in the master
device.

using the same signal which results in better matching across
channels. This does not happen automatically in gang mode
but, rather, must be configured via Table 36.

Data Sheet
Common Mode
Right Leg Drive
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 have a dedicated CM_OUT
pin serving as an output and a CM_IN pin as an input. In
gang mode, the master device determines the common-mode
voltage based on the selected input electrodes. This commonmode signal (on CM_OUT) can then be used by subsequent
slave devices (applied to CM_IN) as the common-mode
reference. All electrodes within the slave device are then
measured with respect to the CM_IN signal from the master
device. See the CMREFCTL register in Table 32 for more
details on the control via the serial interface. Figure 74 shows
the connections between a master and slave device using
multiple devices.
The right leg drive comes from the master device. If the
internal RLD resistors of the slave device are to contribute
to the RLD loop, tie the RLD_SJ pins of master and slave
together.
Sequencing Devices into Gang Mode
When entering gang mode with multiple devices, both
devices can be configured for operation, but the conversion enable bit (ECGCTL register, Bit 2, Table 28) of the
master device should be set after the conversion enable bit
of the slave device. When the master device conversion
signal is set, the master device generates one edge on its
SYNC_GANG pin. This applies to any slave SYNC_GANG
inputs, allowing the devices to synchronize ADC conversions.

might use individual controllers for each device or separate
SDO paths.
As shown in Figure 74, when using multiple devices, the
user must collect the ECG data directly from each device.
The example shown in Figure 75 illustrates one possibility
of how to approach interfacing to a master and slave device.
For some applications, digital isolation is required between
the host and the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4. The example
shown illustrates a means to ensure that the number of lines
requiring isolation is minimized.
Note that SCLK, SDO, and SDI are shared here with
individual CS lines. This requires the user to read the data
on both devices twice as fast to ensure that they can capture
all the data to maintain the chosen data rate and ensure they

SERIAL INTERFACES
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 also provide an optional
secondary serial interface that is capable of providing ECG
data at the 128 kHz data rate for users wishing to apply their
own digital pace detection algorithm. This is a master interface
that operates with an SCLK of 20.48 MHz.
STANDARD SERIAL INTERFACE
The standard serial interface is LVTTL-compatible when operating from a 2.3 V to 3.6 V IOVDD supply. This is the primary
interface for controlling the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 reading
and writing registers, and reading frame data containing all the
ECG data-words and other status functions within the device.

The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are controlled via a standard
serial interface allowing configuration of registers and readback
of ECG data. This is an SPI-compatible interface that can
operate at SCLK frequencies up to 40 MHz.
Figure 76. Serial Interface
Write Mode
The serial word for a write is 32 bits long, MSB first. The serial
interface works with both a continuous and a burst (gated)
serial clock. The falling edge of CS starts the write cycle.
Serial data applied to SDI is clocked into the ADAS1000-3/
ADAS1000-4 on rising SCLK edges. At least 32 rising clock
edges must be applied to SCLK to clock in 32 bits of data
before CS is taken high again. The addressed input register is
updated on the rising edge of CS. For another serial transfer to
take place, CS must be taken low again. Register writes are used
to configure the device. Once the device is configured and
enabled for conversions, frame data can be initiated to start
clocking
out ECG data on SDO at the programmed data rate. Normal
operation for the device is to send out frames of ECG data.
Typically, register reads and writes should be needed only
during start-up configuration. However, it is possible to write
new configuration data to the device while in framing mode.
A new write command is accepted within the frame and,
depending on the nature of the command, there may be a
need to flush out the internal filters (wait periods) before
seeing usable framing data again.

The SPI is controlled by the following five pins:
A
A
E

CS (frame synchronization input). Asserting CS low
selects the device. When CS is high, data on the SDI
pin is ignored. If CS is inactive, the SDO output driver is
disabled so that multiple SPI devices can share a common
SDO pin. The CS pin can be tied low to reduce the number
of isolated paths required. When CS is tied low, there is no
frame around the data-words; therefore, the user must be
aware of where they are within the frame. All data-words
with 2 kHz and 16 kHz data rates contain register addresses
at the start of each word within the frame. Users can
resynchronize the interface by holding SDI high for 64
SCLK cycles, followed by a read of any register so that
SDI is brought low for the first bit of the following word.
SDI (serial data input pin). Data on SDI is clocked into the
device on the rising edges of SCLK.
SCLK (clocks data in and out of the device). SCLK should
idle high when CS is high.
SDO (serial data output pin for data readback). Data is
shifted out on SDO on the falling edges of SCLK. The
SDO output driver is high-Z when CS is high.
DRDY (data ready, optional). Data ready when low,
busy when high. Indicates the internal status of the
ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 digital logic. It is driven
high/busy during reset. If data frames are enabled and
the frame buffer is empty, this pin is driven busy/high.
If the frame buffer is full, this pin is driven low/ready.
If data frames are not enabled, this pin is driven low to
indicate that the device is ready to accept register
read/write commands. When reading packet data, the
entire packet must be read to allow the DRDY return
back high.

Read Mode
In the 128 kHz data rate, all write words are still 32-bit writes
but the read words in the data packet are now 16 bits (upper
16 bits of register). There are no address bits, only data bits.
Register space that is larger than 16 bits spans across 2 ×
16-bit words (for example, pace and respiration).
8B
Data Frames/Packets
87B
The general data packet structure is shown in Table 18. Data
can be received in two different frame formats. For the 2 kHz
and 16 kHz data rates, a 32-bit data format is used (where the
register address is encapsulated in the upper byte, identifying
the word within the frame) (see Table 22). For the 128 kHz data
rate, words are provided in 16-bit data format (see Table 23).
When the configuration is complete, the user can begin reading
frames by issuing a read command to the frame header register
(see Table 53). The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 continue to
make frames available until another register address is written
(read or write command). To continue reading frame data,
continue to write all zeros on SDI, which is a write of the
NOP register (Address 0x00). A frame is interrupted only
when another read or write command is issued.
Each frame can be a large amount of data plus status words. CS
can toggle between each word of data within a frame, or it can
be held constantly low during the entire frame.
Although the primary reading function within the ADAS1000-3/
ADAS1000-4 is the output of the ECG frame data, the devices
also allow reading of all configuration registers. To read a
register, the user must first address the device with a read
command containing the particular register address. If the
device is already in data framing mode, the read register
command can be interleaved between the frames by issuing a
read register command during the last word of frame data.
Data shifted out during the next word is the register read data.
To return to framing mode, the user must re-enable framing
by issuing a read of the frame header register (Address 0x40)
(see Table 53). This register write can be used to flush out the
register contents from the previous read command.

Reading all the data-words creates a frame containing 10 × 32
bit words when reading at 2 kHz or 16 kHz data rates; similarly,
a frame contains 13 × 16-bit words when reading at 128 kHz.
Additionally any words not required can be excluded from
the frame. To arrange the frame with the words of interest,
configure the appropriate bits in the frame control register (see
Table 37). The complete set of words per frame are 10 × 32-bit
words for the 2 kHz or 16 kHz data rates, or 13 × 16-bit words
at 128 kHz.
Any data not available within the frame can be read between
frames. Reading a register interrupts the frame and requires
the user to issue a new read command of Address 0x40 (see
Table 53) to start framing again.
Serial Clock Rate
The SCLK can be up to 40 MHz, depending on the IOVDD
voltage level as shown in Table 5. The minimum SCLK
frequency is set by the requirement that all frame data be
clocked out before the next frame becomes available.
SCLK (min) = frame_rate × words_per_frame × bits_per_word
The minimum SCLK for the various frame rates is shown in
Table 21.

ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
Internal operations are synchronized to the internal master
clock at either 2.048 MHz or 1.024 MHz (ECGCTL[3]: HP = 1
and HP = 0, respectively, see Table 28). Because there is no
guaranteed relationship between the internal clock and the
SPI's SCLK signal, an internal handshaking scheme is used to
ensure safe data transfer between the two clock domains. A full
handshake requires three internal clock cycles and imposes an
upper speed limit on the SCLK frequency when reading frames
with small word counts. This is true for all data frame rates.
When reading packets of data, the entire data packet must be
read; otherwise, DRDY stays low.

There are three methods of detecting DRDY status.

DRDY pin. This is an output pin from the ADAS1000-3/
ADAS1000-4 that indicates the device read or busy status.
No data is valid while this pin is high. The DRDY signals
that data is ready to be read by driving low and remaining
low until the entire frame has been read. It is cleared when
the last bit of the last word in the frame is clocked onto
SDO. The use of this pin is optional.
SDO pin. The user can monitor the voltage level of the
SDO pin by bringing CS low. If SDO is low, data is ready;
if high, busy. This does not require clocking the SCLK
input. (CPHA = CPOL = 1 only).
One of the first bits of valid data in the header word available on SDO is a data ready status bit (see Table 43). Within
the configuration of the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4, the
user can set the header to repeat until the data is ready. See
Bit 6 (RDYRPT) in the frame control register in Table 37.
A
•
A
Data Rate and Skip Mode
•
90B
Although the standard frame rates available are 2 kHz, 16 kHz,
and 128 kHz, there is also a provision to skip frames to further
reduce the data rate. This can be configured in the frame
control register (see Table 37).
Data Ready (DRDY)
E
The DRDY pin is used to indicate that a frame composed of
decimated data at the selected data rate is available to read. It
is high when busy and low when ready. Send commands only
when the status of DRDY is low or ready. During power-on, the
status of DRDY is high (busy) while the device initializes itself.
When initialization is complete, DRDY goes low and the user
can start configuring the device for operation. When the device
is configured and enabled for conversions by writing to the
conversion bit (CNVEN) in the ECGCTL register, the ADCs
start to convert and the digital interface starts to make data
available, loading them into the buffer when ready. If conversions are enabled and the buffer is empty, the device is not
ready and DRDY goes high. Once the buffer is full, DRDY
goes low to indicate that data is ready to be read out of the
device. If the device is not enabled for conversions, the DRDY
ignores the state of the buffer full status.

The host controller must read the entire frame to ensure DRDY
returns low and ready. If the host controller treats the DRDY as
an edge triggered signal and then misses a frame or underruns,
the DRDY remains high because there is still data available to
read. The host controller must treat the DRDY signal as level
triggered, ensuring that whenever it goes low, it generates an
interrupt which can initiate a SPI frame transfer. On completion
of the transfer the DRDY returns high.

Detecting Missed Conversion Data
92B
To ensure that the current data is valid, the entire frame must
be read at the selected data rate. If a read of the entire frame
takes longer than the selected data rate allows, the internal
buffer is not loaded with the latest conversion data. The frame
header register (see Table 53) provides four settings to indicate
an overflow of frame data. The settings of Bits[29:28] report
how many frames have been missed since the last valid frame
read. A missed frame may occur as a result of the last read
taking too long. The data in the current frame is valid data,
but it is not the current data. It is the calculation made directly
after the last valid read.
To clear such an overflow, the user must read the entire frame.

In both cases, the CRC residue is preset to all 1s and inverted
before being transmitted. The CRC parameters are summarized
in Table 24. To verify that data was correctly received, software
should compute a CRC on both the data and the received
checksum. If data and checksum are received correctly, the
resulting CRC residue should equal the check constant shown
in Table 24. Note that data is shifted through the generator
polynomial MSB first, the same order that it is shifted out
serially. The bit and byte order of the CRC that is appended to
the frame is such that the MSB of the CRC is shifted through
the generator polynomial first in the same order as the data so
that the CRC residue XOR’d with the inverted CRC at the end
of the frame is all 1s (which is why the check constant is
identical for all messages). The CRC is based only on the
data that is sent out.

Clocks
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 run from an external crystal or
clock input frequency of 8.192 MHz. The external clock input is
provided for use in gang mode so conversions between the two
devices are synchronized. In this mode, the CLK_IO pin is an
output from the master and an input from the slave. To reduce
power, the CLK_IO is disabled when not in gang mode.
All features within the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are a
function of the frequency of the externally applied clock. Using
a frequency other than the 8.192 MHz previously noted causes
scaling of the data rates, filter corners, ac leads-off frequency,
respiration frequency, and pace algorithm corners accordingly.

This second serial interface is an optional interface that
can be used for the user’s own pace detection purposes.
This interface contains ECG data at 128 kHz data rate only.
If using this interface, the ECG data is still available on the
standard interface discussed previously at lower rates with all
the decimation and filtering applied. If this interface is inactive,
it draws no power.
Data is available in 16-bit words, MSB first.

The data format for this interface is fixed and not influenced by
the FRMCTL register settings. All six words are output, even if
the individual channels are not enabled.
The header word consists of four bits of all 1s followed by a 12bit sequence counter. This sequence counter increments after
every frame is sent, thereby allowing the user to tell if any
frames have been missed and how many.
RESET

E
A
There are two methods of resetting the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
to power-on default. Bringing the RESET line low or setting
the SWRST bit in the ECGCTL register (Table 28) resets the
contents of all internal registers to their power-on reset state.
The falling edge of the RESET pin initiates the reset
process; DRDY goes high for the duration, returning low when
the RESET process is complete. This sequence takes 1.5 ms
maximum. Do not write to the serial interface while DRDY is
high handling a RESET command. When DRDY returns low,
normal operation resumes and the status of the RESET pin is
ignored until it goes low again. Software reset using the SWRST
bit (see Table 28) requires that a NOP (no operation) command
be issued to complete the reset cycle.

SPI REGISTER DEFINITIONS AND MEMORY MAP
13B
In 2 kHz and 16 kHz data rates, data takes the form of 32-bit words. Bit A6 to Bit A0 serve as word identifiers. Each 32-bit word has
24 bits of data. A third high speed data rate is also offered: 128 kHz with data in the form of 16-bit words (all 16 bits as data).

ECG channel enable; shuts down power to the channel; the input becomes high-Z.
0 (default) = disables ECG channel. When disabled, the entire ECG channel is shut down and dissipates
minimal power.
1 = enables ECG channel.
Reserved, set to 0.
Setting this bit selects the differential analog front-end (AFE) input. See Figure 56.
0 (default) = single-ended input (digital lead mode or electrode mode).
1 = differential input (analog lead mode).
Preamplifier and anti-aliasing filter overall gain.
00 (default) = GAIN 0 = ×1.4.
01 = GAIN 1 = ×2.1.
10 = GAIN 2 = ×2.8.
11 = GAIN 3 = ×4.2 (user gain calibration is required for this gain setting).
VREF buffer enable.
0 (default) = disabled.
1 = enabled (when using the internal VREF, VREFBUF must be enabled).
Use external clock instead of crystal oscillator. The crystal oscillator is automatically disabled if
configured as a slave in gang mode and the slave device should receive the clock from the master
device.
0 (default) = XTAL is clock source.
1 = CLK_IO is clock source.
In gang mode, this bit selects the master (SYNC_GANG pin is configured as an output). When in single
channel mode (gang = 0), this bit is ignored.
0 (default) = slave.
1 = master.
Enable gang mode. Setting this bit causes CLK_IO and SYNC_GANG to be activated.
0 (default) = single channel mode.
1 = gang mode.
Selects the noise/power performance. This bit controls the ADC sampling frequency. See the
Specifications section for further details. This bit also affects the respiration carrier frequency as
discussed in the Respiration Carrier Frequency section.
0 (default) = 1 MSPS, low power.
1 = 2 MSPS, high performance/low noise.
Conversion enable. Setting this bit enables the ADC conversion and filters.
0 (default) = idle.
1 = conversion enable.
Power enable. Clearing this bit powers down the device. All analog blocks are powered down and the
external crystal is disabled. The register contents are retained during power down as long as DVDD is
not removed.
0 (default) = power down.
1 = power enable.
Software reset. Setting this bit clears all registers to their reset value. This bit automatically clears itself.
The software reset requires a NOP command to complete the reset.
0 (default) = NOP.
1 = reset.

Common-mode electrode select.
Any combination of the five input electrodes can be used to create the common-mode
signal, VCM. Bits[23:19] are ignored when Bit 2 is selected. Common mode is the average of
the selected electrodes. When a single electrode is selected, common mode is the signal
level of that electrode alone. The common-mode signal can be driven from the internal
VCM_REF (1.3 V) when Bits [23:19] = 0.
0 = does not contribute to the common mode.
1 = contributes to the common mode.

Channel data value. Data left justified (MSB) irrespective of data rate.
The input stage can be configured into different modes (electrode, analog lead, or digital
lead). In electrode mode and analog lead mode, the digital result value is an unsigned
integer.
In digital lead/vector mode, the value is a signed twos complement integer format and has
a 2× range compared to electrode format because it can swing from +VREF to –VREF;
therefore, the LSB size is doubled.
Electrode mode and analog lead mode:
Minimum value (000…) = 0 V
Maximum value (1111….) = VREF/GAIN
LSB = (2 × VREF/GAIN)/(2N– 1)
ECG (voltage) = ECG Data × (2 × VREF/GAIN)/(2N– 1)
Digital lead mode:
Minimum value (1000…) = −(VREF/GAIN)
Maximum value (0111….) = +VREF/GAIN
LSB = (4 × VREF/GAIN)/(2N – 1)
ECG (voltage) = ECG Data × (4 × VREF/GAIN)/(2N – 1)
where N = number of data bits: 16 for 128 kHz data rate or 24 for 2 kHz/16 kHz data rate.

If using 128 kHz data rate in frame mode, only the upper 16 bits are sent. If using the 128 kHz data rate in regular read/write mode, all 32 bits are sent.

If either dc or ac lead-off is enabled, these bits are the corresponding lead-off status. If
both dc and ac lead-off are enabled, these bits reflect only the ac lead-off status. DC
lead-off is available in the DCLEAD-OFF register (see Table 48).
The common electrodes have only dc lead-off detection.
An ac lead-off signal can be injected into the common electrode, but there is no ADC
input to measure its amplitude. If the common electrode is off, it affects the ac lead-off
amplitude of the other electrodes.
These bits accumulate in the frame buffer and are cleared when the frame buffer is

N: (N + 1)/128 kHz = width
12: (12 + 1)/128 kHz = 101.56 µs (minimum when pace width filter enabled)
255: (255 + 1)/128 kHz = 2.0 ms
Disabling the pace width filter allows the pace measurement system to
return values of N < 12, that is, pulses narrower than 101.56 μs.
These registers are not part of framing data but can be read by issuing a register read command of these addresses.

Write 1 configures the CMREFCTL register for CM =

RLD_OUT electrode. The shield amplifier is enabled.
Write 2 configures the FRMCTL register to output seven
words per frame/packet. The frame/packet of words
consist of the header, three ECG words, pace, respiration
magnitude, and lead-off. The frame is configured to
always send, irrespective of ready status. The device
is in analog lead mode with a data rate of 2 kHz.
Write 3 addresses the ECGCTL register, enabling all
channels into a gain of 1.4, low noise mode, and differential input, which configures the device for analog lead
mode. This register also configures the device as a master,
using the external crystal as the input source to the XTALx
pins. The device is also put into conversion mode in this
write.
Write 4 issues the read command to start putting the
converted data out on the SDO pin.
Continue to issue SCLK cycles to read the converted data
at the configured packet data rate (2 kHz). The SDI input
should be held low when reading back the conversion
data because any commands issued to the interface during
read of frame/packet are understood to be a change of
configuration data and will stop the ADC conversions
to allow the interface to process the new command.

POWER SUPPLY, GROUNDING, AND DECOUPLING
STRATEGY
ADCVDD AND DVDD SUPPLIES
The AVDD supply rail powers the analog blocks in addition to
the internal 1.8 V regulators for the ADC and the digital core.
If using the internal regulators, connect the VREG_EN pin to
AVDD and then use the ADCVDD and DVDD pins for
decoupling purposes.
The ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 should have ample supply
decoupling of 0.01 μF on each supply pin located as close to the
device pin as possible, ideally right up against the device. In
addition, there should be one 4.7 μF capacitor for each of the
power domains, AVDD and IOVDD, again located as close to
the device as possible. IOVDD is best split from AVDD due to
its noisy nature.
Similarly, the ADCVDD and DVDD power domains each
require one 2.2 μF capacitor with ESR in the range of 0.5 Ω to
2 Ω. The ideal location for each 2.2 μF capacitor is dependent
on package type. For the LQFP package and DVDD decoupling,
the 2.2 μF capacitor is best placed between Pin 30 and Pin 31,
while for ADCVDD, the 2.2 μF capacitor should be placed
between Pin 55 and Pin 56. Similarly for the LFCSP package,
the DVDD 2.2 μF capacitor is ideal between Pin 43 and Pin 44,
and between Pin 22 and Pin 23 for ADCVDD. A 0.01 μF
capacitor is recommended for high frequency decoupling at
each pin. The 0.01 μF capacitors should have low effective series
resistance (ESR) and effective series inductance (ESL), such as
the common ceramic capacitors that provide a low impedance
path to ground at high frequencies to handle transient currents
due to internal logic switching.
Digital lines running under the device should be avoided
because these couple noise onto the device. The analog ground
plane should be allowed to run under the device to avoid noise
coupling. The power supply lines should use as large a trace as
possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects
of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching digital
signals should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating
noise to other parts of the board and should never be run near
the reference inputs. It is essential to minimize noise on VREF
lines. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on
opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each
other. This reduces the effects of feedthrough throughout the
board. As is the case for all thin packages, take care to avoid
flexing the package and to avoid a point load on the surface of
this package during the assembly process.
During layout of board, ensure that bypass capacitors are placed
as close to the relevant pin as possible, with short, wide traces
ideally on the topside.
The DVDD regulator can be used to drive other external digital
circuitry as required; however, the ADCVDD pin is purely
provided for bypassing purposes and does not have available
current for other components.
Where overall power consumption must be minimized, using
external 1.8 V supply rails for both ADCVDD and DVDD
would provide a more efficient solution. The ADCVDD and
DVDD inputs have been designed to be driven externally and
the internal regulators may be disabled by tying VREG_EN pin
directly to ground.
UNUSED PINS/PATHS
In applications where not all ECG paths or functions might be
used, the preferred method of biasing the different functions is
as follows:
•
•
•
•
Unused ECG paths power up disabled. For low power
operation, they should be kept disabled throughout
operation. Ideally, these pins should be connected to
RLD_OUT if not being used.
Unused external respiration inputs can be tied to ground if
not in use.
If unused, the shield driver can be disabled and output left
to float.
CM_OUT, CAL_DAC_IO, DRDY, GPIOx, CLK_IO,
SYNC_GANG can be left open.
E
A
LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
56B
To maximize CMRR performance, pay careful attention to
the ECG path layout for each channel. All channels should be
identical to minimize difference in capacitance across the paths.
Place all decoupling as close to the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4
devices as possible, with an emphasis on ensuring that the
VREF decoupling be prioritized, with VREF decoupling on
the same side as the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4devices, where
possible.
AVDD
While the ADAS1000-3/ADAS1000-4 are designed to operate
from a wide supply rail, 3.15 V to 5.5 V, the performance is
similar over the full range, but overall power increases with
increasing voltage.
