A | Page 7 of 16 AD7683 TERMINOLOGY Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL) Linearity error refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line drawn from negative full scale through positive full scale. The point used as negative full scale occurs ½ LSB before the first code transition. Positive full scale is defined as a level 1½ LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation is measured from the middle of each code to the true straight line (see Figure 21). Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL) In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. DNL is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It is often specified in terms of resolution for which no missing codes are guaranteed. Offset Error The first transition should occur at a level ½ LSB above analog ground (38.1 μV for the 0 V to 5 V range). The offset error is the deviation of the actual transition from that point. Gain Error The last transition (from 111...10 to 111...11) should occur for an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the nominal full scale (4.999886 V for the 0 V to 5 V range). The gain error is the deviation of the actual level of the last transition from the ideal level after the offset has been adjusted out. Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) The difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms amplitude of the input signal and the peak spurious signal. Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SINAD) SINAD is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for SINAD is expressed in dB. Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) ENOB is a measurement of the resolution with a sine wave input. It is related to SINAD (as represented by S/(N+D)) by the following formula and is expressed in bits: ENOB = (S /[N + D ]dB − 1.76 ) / 6.02 Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first five harmonic components to the rms value of a full-scale input signal and is expressed in dB. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist frequency, excluding harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is expressed in dB. Aperture Delay Aperture delay is a measure of the acquisition performance and is the time between the falling edge of the CS input and when the input signal is held for a conversion. Transient Response Transient response is the time required for the ADC to accurately acquire its input after a full-scale step function is applied. Rev.

ADC Simplified Schematic CIRCUIT INFORMATION The AD7683 is a low power, single-supply, 16-bit ADC using a successive approximation architecture. The AD7683 is capable of converting 100,000 samples per second (100 kSPS) and powers down between conversions. When operating at 10 kSPS, for example, it consumes typically 150 μW with a 2.7 V supply, ideal for battery-powered applications. array between GND and REF, the comparator input varies by binary-weighted voltage steps (VREF/2, VREF/4...VREF/65,536). The control logic toggles these switches, starting with the MSB, to bring the comparator back into a balanced condition. After the completion of this process, the part returns to the acquisition phase and the control logic generates the ADC output code. TRANSFER FUNCTIONS ADC CODE (STRAIGHT BINARY) The AD7683 is specified from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. It is housed in an 8-lead MSOP or a tiny, 8-lead QFN (LFCSP) package. The AD7683 is an improved second source to the ADS8320 and ADS8325. For even better performance, consider the AD7685. CONVERTER OPERATION The AD7683 is a successive approximation ADC based on a charge redistribution DAC. Figure 20 shows the simplified schematic of the ADC. The capacitive DAC consists of two identical arrays of 16 binary-weighted capacitors that connect to the two comparator inputs. During the acquisition phase, terminals of the array tied to the comparator’s input are connected to GND via SW+ and SW−. All independent switches are connected to the analog inputs. Thus, the capacitor arrays are used as sampling capacitors and acquire the analog signal on the +IN and −IN inputs. When the acquisition phase is complete and the CS input goes low, a conversion phase is initiated. When the conversion phase begins, SW+ and SW− are opened first. The two capacitor arrays are then disconnected from the inputs and connected to the GND input. Therefore, the differential voltage between the inputs, +IN and −IN, captured at the end of the acquisition phase is applied to the comparator inputs, causing the comparator to become unbalanced.

Figure 22. Typical Application Diagram TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM Figure 22 shows an example of the recommended application diagram for the AD7683. ANALOG INPUT Figure 23 shows an equivalent circuit of the input structure of the AD7683. The two diodes, D1 and D2, provide ESD protection for the analog inputs, +IN and −IN. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog input signal never exceeds the supply rails by more than 0.3 V because this causes these diodes to become forward-biased and start conducting current. However, these diodes can handle a forward-biased current of 130 mA maximum. For instance, these conditions can eventually occur when the input buffer (U1) supplies are different from VDD. In such a case, use an input buffer with a short-circuit current limitation to protect the part. pass filter that reduces undesirable aliasing effects and limits the noise. When the source impedance of the driving circuit is low, the AD7683 can be driven directly. Large source impedances significantly affect the ac performance, especially THD. The dc performances are less sensitive to the input impedance. DRIVER AMPLIFIER CHOICE Although the AD7683 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier needs to meet the following requirements: • The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be kept as low as possible to preserve the SNR and transition noise performance of the AD7683. Note that the AD7683 has a noise figure much lower than most other 16-bit ADCs and, therefore, can be driven by a noisier op amp while preserving the same or better system performance. The noise coming from the driver is filtered by the AD7683 analog input circuit, 1-pole, low-pass filter made by RIN and CIN or by the external filter, if one is used. • For ac applications, the driver needs to have a THD performance suitable to that of the AD7683. Figure 15 shows the THD vs. frequency that the driver should exceed. • For multichannel multiplexed applications, the driver amplifier and the AD7683 analog input circuit must be able to settle for a full-scale step of the capacitor array at a 16-bit level (0.0015%). In the amplifier data sheet, settling at 0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. This could differ significantly from the settling time at a 16-bit level and should be verified prior to driver selection. VDD D1 +IN OR –IN CIN D2 04301-023 CPIN RIN GND Figure 23. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit This analog input structure allows the sampling of the differential signal between +IN and −IN. By using this differential input, small signals common to both inputs are rejected. For instance, by using −IN to sense a remote signal ground, ground potential differences between the sensor and the local ADC ground are eliminated. During the acquisition phase, the impedance of the analog input, +IN, can be modeled as a parallel combination of Capacitor CPIN and the network formed by the series connection of RIN and CIN. CPIN is primarily the pin capacitance. RIN is typically 600 Ω and is a lumped component consisting of some serial resistors and the on resistance of the switches. CIN is typically 30 pF and is mainly the ADC sampling capacitor. During the conversion phase, when the switches are opened, the input impedance is limited to CPIN. RIN and CIN make a 1-pole, low- Table 10. Recommended Driver Amplifiers Amplifier ADA4841 OP184 AD8605, AD8615 AD8519 AD8031 Rev.

The data is valid on both DCLOCK edges. Although the rising edge can be used to capture the data, a digital host also using the DCLOCK falling edge allows a faster reading rate, provided it has an acceptable hold time. CONVERT When REF is driven by a very low impedance source (such as an unbuffered reference voltage like the low temperature drift ADR43x reference or a reference buffer using the AD8031 or the AD8605), a 10 μF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum performance. If desired, smaller reference decoupling capacitors with values as low as 2.2 μF can be used with a minimal impact on performance, especially DNL. POWER SUPPLY The AD7683 powers down automatically at the end of each conversion phase and, therefore, the power scales linearly with the sampling rate, as shown in Figure 24. This makes the part ideal for low sampling rates (even of a few Hz) and low batterypowered applications. 1000 VDD = 5V 10 1 0.1 0.01 10 100 1k 10k DCLOCK DOUT DATA IN CLK Figure 25. Connection Diagram LAYOUT Design the PCB that houses the AD7683 so that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. The pin configuration of the AD7683, with all its analog signals on the left side and all its digital signals on the right side, eases this task. Avoid running digital lines under the device because these couple noise onto the die, unless a ground plane under the AD7683 is used as a shield. Fast switching signals, such as CS or clocks, should never run near analog signal paths. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Use at least one ground plane. It can be common or split between the digital and analog sections. In such a case, it should be joined underneath the AD7683.

Operating Current vs. Sampling Rate DIGITAL INTERFACE The AD7683 is compatible with SPI®, QSPI™, digital hosts, MICROWIRE™, and DSPs (for example, Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x or ADSP-219x). The connection diagram is shown in Figure 25 and the corresponding timing is given in Figure 2. A falling edge on CS initiates a conversion and the data transfer. After the fifth DCLOCK falling edge, DOUT is enabled and forced low. The data bits are then clocked, MSB first, by subsequent The AD7683 voltage reference input (REF) has a dynamic input impedance and should be decoupled with minimal parasitic inductances. Accomplish this by placing the reference decoupling ceramic capacitor close to, and ideally right up against, the REF and GND pins and by connecting these pins with wide, low impedance traces. Finally, decouple the power supply, VDD, of the AD7683 with a ceramic capacitor, typically 100 nF, placed close to the AD7683. Connect it using short and large traces to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect of glitches on the power supply lines. EVALUATING THE AD7683 PERFORMANCE Other recommended layouts for the AD7683 are outlined in the evaluation board for the AD7683 (EVAL-AD7683CBZ). The evaluation board package includes a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documentation, and software for controlling the board from a PC via the EVAL-CONTROL BRD3Z. Rev.
