GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7982 is a 18-bit, successive approximation, analog-todigital converter (ADC) that operates from a single power
supply, VDD. It contains a low power, high speed, 18-bit
sampling ADC and a versatile serial interface port. On the CNV
rising edge, it samples the voltage difference between IN+ and
IN− pins. The voltages on these pins usually swing in opposite
phase between 0 V and REF. The reference voltage, REF, is
applied externally and can be set independently of the supply
voltage, VDD.
Its power scales linearly with throughput.

using the SDI input, to daisy chain several ADCs on a single,
3-wire bus and provides an optional BUSY indicator. It is
compatible with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, or 5 V logic, using the separate
supply VIO.
The AD7982 is housed in a 10-lead MSOP or a 10-lead QFN
(LFCSP) with operation specified from −40°C to +85°C.

Differential Negative Analog Input.
Power Supply Ground.
Convert Input. This input has multiple functions. On its leading edge, it initiates the conversions and
selects the interface mode of the part, chain or CS mode. In CS mode, it enables the SDO pin when low. In
chain mode, the data should be read when CNV is high.
Serial Data Output. The conversion result is output on this pin. It is synchronized to SCK.
Serial Data Clock Input. When the part is selected, the conversion result is shifted out by this clock.
Serial Data Input. This input provides multiple features. It selects the interface mode of the ADC as follows:
Chain mode is selected if SDI is low during the CNV rising edge. In this mode, SDI is used as a data input to
daisy chain the conversion results of two or more ADCs onto a single SDO line. The digital data level on
SDI is output on SDO with a delay of 18 SCK cycles.
CS mode is selected if SDI is high during the CNV rising edge. In this mode, either SDI or CNV can enable
the serial output signals when low, and if SDI or CNV is low when the conversion is complete, the BUSY
indicator feature is enabled.
Input/Output Interface Digital Power. Nominally at the same supply as the host interface (1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V,

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL)
It 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 (Figure 12).
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.
Zero Error
The difference between the ideal midscale voltage, that is, 0 V,
from the actual voltage producing the midscale output code,
that is, 0 LSB.
Gain Error
The first transition (from 100 . . . 00 to 100 . . . 01) should occur
at a level ½ LSB above nominal negative full scale (−4.999981 V
for the ±5 V range). The last transition (from 011…10 to
011…11) should occur for an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the
nominal full scale (+4.999943 V for the ±5 V range.) The gain
error is the deviation of the difference between the actual level
of the last transition and the actual level of the first transition
from the difference between the ideal levels.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms amplitude of
the input signal and the peak spurious signal.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB is a measurement of the resolution with a sine wave
input. It is related to S/(N+D) by the following formula
ENOB = (S/[N + D]dB − 1.76)/6.02
and is expressed in bits.
Noise-free-code-resolution
It is the number of bits beyond which it is impossible to
distinctly resolve individual codes. It is calculated as :
Noise-Free Code resolution = log2(2N/peak-to-peak noise)
and is expressed in bits.
Effective resolution
It is calculated as :
Effective resolution = log2(2N/rms input noise)
and is expressed in bits.
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.
Dynamic Range
It is the ratio of the rms value of the full scale to the total rms
noise measured with the inputs shorted together. The value for
dynamic range is expressed in dB. It is measured with a signal at
-60dBFs to include all noise sources and DNL artifacts.
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.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (S/[N+D])
S/(N+D) 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 S/(N+D) is expressed in dB.
Aperture Delay
The measure of the acquisition performance and is the time
between the rising edge of the CNV input and when the input
signal is held for a conversion.
Transient Response
The time required for the ADC to accurately acquire its input
after a full-scale step function was applied.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7982 is a fast, low power, single-supply, precise 18-bit
ADC using a successive approximation architecture.
The AD7982 is a successive approximation ADC based on a
charge redistribution DAC. Figure 11 shows the simplified
schematic of the ADC. The capacitive DAC consists of two
identical arrays of 18 binary weighted capacitors, which are
connected to the two comparator inputs.
The AD7982 is capable of converting 1,000,000 samples per
second (1MSPS) and powers down between conversions. When
operating at 10 kSPS, for example, it consumes 75 μW typically,
ideal for battery-powered applications.
The AD7982 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold
and does not exhibit any pipeline delay or latency, making it
ideal for multiple multiplexed channel applications.
The AD7982 can be interfaced to any 1.8 V to 5 V digital logic
family. It is housed in a 10-lead MSOP or a tiny 10-lead QFN
(LFCSP) that combines space savings and allows flexible
configurations.
It is pin-for-pin-compatible with the 16-bit AD7980.
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 CNV input goes high, 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. By switching each element of the capacitor
array between GND and REF, the comparator input varies by
binary weighted voltage steps (VREF/2, VREF/4 . . . VREF/262144).
The control logic toggles these switches, starting with the MSB,
in order 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 and a BUSY signal indicator.
Because the AD7982 has an on-board conversion clock, the
serial clock, SCK, is not required for the conversion process.

ANALOG INPUT
Figure 14 shows an equivalent circuit of the input structure of
the AD7982.
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 begin to forwardbias and start conducting current. These diodes can handle a
forward-biased current of 130 mA maximum. For instance,
these conditions could eventually occur when the input buffer’s
(U1) supplies are different from VDD. In such a case, an input
buffer with a short-circuit, current limitation can be used to
protect the part.

CPIN
The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be
kept as low as possible in order to preserve the SNR and
transition noise performance of the AD7982. The noise
coming from the driver is filtered by the AD7982 analog
input circuit 1-pole, low-pass filter made by RIN and CIN or
by the external filter, if one is used. Because the typical

Figure 14. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit
The analog input structure allows the sampling of the true
differential signal between IN+ and IN−. By using these
differential inputs, signals common to both inputs are rejected.
During the acquisition phase, the impedance of the analog
inputs (IN+ or 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 400 Ω and is a lumped component made up 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, where the switches are opened,
the input impedance is limited to CPIN. RIN and CIN make a 1pole, low-pass filter that reduces undesirable aliasing effects and
limits the noise.
When the source impedance of the driving circuit is low, the
AD7982 can be driven directly. Large source impedances
significantly affect the ac performance, especially total
harmonic distortion (THD). The dc performances are less
sensitive to the input impedance. The maximum source
impedance depends on the amount of THD that can be
tolerated. The THD degrades as a function of the source
impedance and the maximum input frequency.
eN is the equivalent input noise voltage of the op amp, in
nV/√Hz.
•
For ac applications, the driver should have a THD
performance commensurate with the AD7982.
•
For multichannel multiplexed applications, the driver
amplifier and the AD7982 analog input circuit must settle
for a full-scale step onto the capacitor array at a 18-bit level
(0.0004%, 4 ppm). In the amplifier’s data sheet, settling at
0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. This could
differ significantly from the settling time at a 18-bit level
and should be verified prior to driver selection.

SINGLE-TO-DIFFERENTIAL DRIVER
For applications using a single-ended analog signal, either
bipolar or unipolar, the ADA4941 single-ended-to-differential
driver allows for a differential input into the part. The
schematic is shown in Figure 15.
R1, R2 set the attenuation ratio between the input range and the
ADC range (VREF). R1, R2 and CF shall be chosen depending on
the desired input resistance, signal bandwidth, anti-aliasing and
noise contribution.
– e.g.: for +/-10V range with 4k Ω impedance, R2=1k Ω and
R1= 4k Ω
R3, R4 and R5, R6 set the common mode on, respectively, the
IN- and IN+ inputs of the ADC which should be close to
VREF/2.
– e.g.: for +/-10V range with single supply, R3=8.45k Ω, R4=
11.8k Ω and R5=10.5kΩ, R6= 9.76kΩ
R5
R6

R4
Regardless, there is no need for an additional lower value
ceramic decoupling capacitor (for example, 100 nF) between the
REF and GND pins.
POWER SUPPLY
It uses two power supply pins: a core supply VDD and a digital
input/output interface supply VIO. VIO allows direct interface
with any logic between 1.8 V and VDD. To reduce the supplies
needed, the VIO and VDD can be tied together. The AD7982 is
independent of power supply sequencing between VIO and
VDD. Additionally, it is very insensitive to power supply
variations over a wide frequency range.
To ensure optimum performance, VDD should be roughly half
of REF, the voltage reference input. For example if REF is 5.0V,
VDD should be set to 2.5V (+/-5%).
The AD7982 powers down automatically at the end of each
conversion phase and, therefore, the power scales linearly with
the sampling rate. This makes the part ideal for low sampling
rate (even a few Hz) and low battery-powered applications.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUT
The AD7982 voltage reference input, REF, has a dynamic, input
impedance and should therefore be driven by a low impedance
source with efficient decoupling between the REF and GND
pins, as explained in the Layout section.
When REF is driven by a very low impedance source, for
example, a reference buffer using the AD8031 or the AD8605, a
10 μF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for
optimum performance.
If an unbuffered reference voltage is used, the decoupling value
depends on the reference used. For instance, a 22 μF (X5R,
1206 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum
performance using a low temperature drift ADR43x reference.
If desired, smaller reference decoupling capacitor values down
to 2.2 μF can be used with a minimal impact on performance,
especially DNL.

AD7982
Preliminary Technical Data
DIGITAL INTERFACE
Though the AD7982 has a reduced number of pins, it offers
flexibility in its serial interface modes.
The AD7982, when in CS mode, is compatible with SPI, QSPI,
digital hosts, and DSPs, e.g., Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x or ADSP219x. This interface can use either 3-wire or 4-wire. A 3-wire
interface using the CNV, SCK, and SDO signals minimizes
wiring connections useful, for instance, in isolated applications.
A 4-wire interface using the SDI, CNV, SCK, and SDO signals
allows CNV, which initiates the conversions, to be independent
of the readback timing (SDI). This is useful in low jitter
sampling or simultaneous sampling applications.
The AD7982, when in chain mode, provides a daisy chain
feature using the SDI input for cascading multiple ADCs on a
single data line similar to a shift register.
The mode in which the part operates depends on the SDI level
when the CNV rising edge occurs. The CS mode is selected if
SDI is high and the chain mode is selected if SDI is low. The
SDI hold time is such that when SDI and CNV are connected
together, the chain mode is always selected.
In either mode, the AD7982 offers the flexibility to optionally
force a start bit in front of the data bits. This start bit can be
used as a BUSY signal indicator to interrupt the digital host and
trigger the data reading. Otherwise, without a BUSY indicator,
the user must time out the maximum conversion time prior to
readback.
The BUSY indicator feature is enabled as:
• In the CS mode, if CNV or SDI is low when the ADC
conversion ends (Figure 19 and Figure 23).
• In the chain mode, if SCK is high during the CNV rising edge
(Figure 27).

to capture the data, a digital host using the SCK falling edge will
allow a faster reading rate provided it has an acceptable hold
time. After the 18th SCK falling edge or when CNV goes high,
whichever is earlier, SDO returns to high impedance.
CS MODE 3-WIRE, NO BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when a single AD7982 is connected
to an SPI compatible digital host. The connection diagram is
shown in Figure 16 and the corresponding timing is given in
Figure 17.
CONVERT
With SDI tied to VIO, a rising edge on CNV initiates a
conversion, selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high
impedance. Once a conversion is initiated, it will continue to
completion irrespective of the state of CNV. For instance, it
could be useful to bring CNV low to select other SPI devices,
such as analog multiplexers, but CNV must be returned high
before the minimum conversion time and held high until the
maximum conversion time to avoid the generation of the BUSY
signal indicator. When the conversion is complete, the AD7982
enters the acquisition phase and powers down. When CNV
goes low, the MSB is output onto SDO. The remaining data bits
are then clocked by subsequent SCK falling edges. The data is
valid on both SCK edges. Although the rising edge can be used

a digital host using the SCK falling edge will allow a faster

optional 19th SCK falling edge, or when CNV goes high,
whichever is earlier, SDO returns to high impedance.
CS MODE 3-WIRE WITH BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when a single AD7982 is connected
to an SPI compatible digital host having an interrupt input.
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 18 and the
corresponding timing is given in Figure 19.
If multiple AD7982s are selected at the same time, the SDO
output pin handles this contention without damage or induced
latch-up. Meanwhile, it is recommended to keep this contention
as short as possible to limit extra power dissipation.
With SDI tied to VIO, a rising edge on CNV initiates a
conversion, selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high
impedance. SDO is maintained in high impedance until the
completion of the conversion irrespective of the state of CNV.
Prior to the minimum conversion time, CNV could be used to
select other SPI devices, such as analog multiplexers, but CNV
must be returned low before the minimum conversion time and
held low until the maximum conversion time to guarantee the
generation of the BUSY signal indicator. When the conversion
is complete, SDO goes from high impedance to low. With a
pull-up on the SDO line, this transition can be used as an
interrupt signal to initiate the data reading controlled by the
digital host. The AD7982 then enters the acquisition phase and
powers down. The data bits are then clocked out, MSB first, by
subsequent SCK falling edges. The data is valid on both SCK

avoid the generation of the BUSY signal indicator. When the
conversion is complete, the AD7982 enters the acquisition
phase and powers down. Each ADC result can be read by
bringing low its SDI input which consequently outputs the MSB
onto SDO. The remaining data bits are then clocked by
subsequent SCK falling edges. The data is valid on both SCK
edges. Although the rising edge can be used to capture the data,
a digital host using the SCK falling edge will allow a faster
reading rate provided it has an acceptable hold time. After the
18th SCK falling edge, or when SDI goes high, whichever is
earlier, SDO returns to high impedance and another AD7982
can be read.
CS Mode 4-Wire, No BUSY Indicator
This mode is usually used when multiple AD7982s are
connected to an SPI compatible digital host.
A connection diagram example using two AD7982s is shown in
Figure 20 and the corresponding timing is given in Figure 21.
With SDI high, a rising edge on CNV initiates a conversion,
selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high impedance. In this
mode, CNV must be held high during the conversion phase and

driven low). Prior to the minimum conversion time, SDI could
be used to select other SPI devices, such as analog multiplexers,

CS MODE 4-WIRE WITH BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when a single AD7982 is connected
to an SPI compatible digital host, which has an interrupt input,
and it is desired to keep CNV, which is used to sample the
analog input, independent of the signal used to select the data
reading. This requirement is particularly important in
applications where low jitter on CNV is desired.
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 22 and the
corresponding timing is given in Figure 23.

onto SDO and the AD7982 enters the acquisition phase and

shift register are then clocked by subsequent SCK falling edges.
For each ADC, SDI feeds the input of the internal shift register
and is clocked by the SCK falling edge. Each ADC in the chain
outputs its data MSB first, and 18 × N clocks are required to
readback the N ADCs. The data is valid on both SCK edges.
Although the rising edge can be used to capture the data, a
digital host using the SCK falling edge will allow a faster
reading rate and, consequently more AD7982s in the chain,
provided the digital host has an acceptable hold time. The
maximum conversion rate may be reduced due to the total
readback time.
CHAIN MODE, NO BUSY INDICATOR
This mode can be used to daisy chain multiple AD7982s on a 3wire serial interface. This feature is useful for reducing
component count and wiring connections, e.g., in isolated
multiconverter applications or for systems with a limited
interfacing capacity. Data readback is analogous to clocking a

completed their conversions, the nearend ADC ( ADC C in
Figure 26) SDO is driven high. This transition on SDO can be
used as a BUSY indicator to trigger the data readback controlled
by the digital host. The AD7982 then enters the acquisition
phase and powers down. The data bits stored in the internal
shift register are then clocked out, MSB first, by subsequent
SCK falling edges. For each ADC, SDI feeds the input of the

Preliminary Technical Data
AD7982
APPLICATION HINTS
LAYOUT
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7982 should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated
and confined to certain areas of the board. The pinout of the
AD7982, with all its analog signals on the left side and all its
digital signals on the right side, eases this task.
AD7982
Avoid running digital lines under the device because these
couple noise onto the die, unless a ground plane under the
AD7982 is used as a shield. Fast switching signals, such as CNV
or clocks, should never run near analog signal paths. Crossover
of digital and analog signals should be avoided
At least one ground plane should be used. It could be common
or split between the digital and analog section. In the latter case,
the planes should be joined underneath the AD7982s.
The AD7982 voltage reference input REF has a dynamic, input
impedance and should be decoupled with minimal parasitic
inductances. This is done by placing the reference decoupling
ceramic capacitor close to, and ideally right up against, the REF
and GND pins and connected with wide, low impedance traces.
Figure 28. Example of Layout of the AD7982 (Top Layer)
Finally, the power supplies VDD and VIO of the AD7982
should be decoupled with ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF,
placed close to the AD7982 and connected using short and wide
traces to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect of
glitches on the power supply lines.
An example of layout following these rules is shown in
Figure 28 and Figure 29.
EVALUATING THE AD7982’S PERFORMANCE
Other recommended layouts for the AD7982 are outlined
in the documentation of the evaluation board for the AD7982
(EVAL-AD7982-CB). 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 BRD3.
