GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7671 is a 16-bit, 1 MSPS, charge redistribution SAR,
analog-to-digital converter that operates from a single 5 V power
supply. It contains a high speed 16-bit sampling ADC, a resistor
input scaler that allows various input ranges, an internal
conversion clock, error correction circuits, and both serial
and parallel system interface ports.
The AD7671 is hardware factory-calibrated and is comprehensively tested to ensure such ac parameters as signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) and total harmonic distortion (THD), in addition to the
more traditional dc parameters of gain, offset, and linearity.
It features a very high sampling rate mode (Warp), a fast mode
(Normal) for asynchronous conversion rate applications, and, for
low power applications, a reduced power mode (Impulse) where
the power is scaled with the throughput.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD7671 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Analog Power Ground Pin.
Input Analog Power Pin. Nominally 5 V.
No Connect.
Parallel Mode Selection (8-/16-Bit). When LOW, the LSB is output on D[7:0] and the MSB is
output on D[15:8]. When HIGH, the LSB is output on D[15:8] and the MSB is output on D[7:0].
Straight Binary/Binary Twos Complement. When OB/2C is HIGH, the digital output is straight
binary; when LOW, the MSB is inverted, resulting in a twos complement output from its internal
shift register.
Mode Selection. When HIGH and IMPULSE LOW, this input selects the fastest mode, the maximum
throughput is achievable and a minimum conversion rate must be applied in order to guarantee
full specified accuracy. When LOW, full accuracy is maintained independent of the minimum
conversion rate.
Mode Selection. When HIGH and WARP LOW, this input selects a reduced Power Mode.
In this mode, the power dissipation is approximately proportional to the sampling rate.
Serial/Parallel Selection Input. When LOW, the Parallel Port is selected; when HIGH, the Serial
Interface Mode is selected and some bits of the data bus are used as a Serial Port.
Bit 0 and Bit 1 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus. When SER/PAR is HIGH, these outputs are
in high impedance.
When SER/PAR is LOW, these outputs are used as Bit 2 and Bit 3 of the Parallel Port Data
Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, EXT/INT is LOW and RDC/SDIN is LOW, which is the Serial Master
Read after Convert Mode. These inputs, part of the Serial Port, are used to slow down, if desired,
the internal serial clock that clocks the data output. In the other serial modes, these pins are high
impedance outputs.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 4 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this input, part of the Serial Port, is used as a digital select input for
choosing the internal or an external data clock, called Master and Slave Modes, respectively. With
EXT/INT tied LOW, the internal clock is selected on SCLK output. With EXT/INT set to a logic
HIGH, output data is synchronized to an external clock signal connected to the SCLK input and
the external clock is gated by CS.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 5 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this input, part of the Serial Port, is used to select the active state of
the SYNC signal. When LOW, SYNC is active HIGH. When HIGH, SYNC is active LOW.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 6 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.

When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 7 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this input, part of the Serial Port, is used as either an external data input
or a read mode selection input, depending on the state of EXT/INT.
When EXT/INT is HIGH, RDC/SDIN could be used as a data input to daisy-chain the conversion
results from two or more ADCs onto a single SDOUT line. The digital data level on SDIN is output
on DATA with a delay of 16 SCLK periods after the initiation of the read sequence.
When EXT/INT is LOW, RDC/SDIN is used to select the Read Mode. When RDC/SDIN is HIGH,
the previous data is output on SDOUT during conversion. When RDC/SDIN is LOW, the data can
be output on SDOUT only when the conversion is complete.

When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 8 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this output, part of the Serial Port, is used as a serial data output
synchronized to SCLK. Conversion results are stored in an on-chip register. The AD7671 provides
the conversion result, MSB first, from its internal shift register. The data format is determined
by the logic level of OB/2C. In Serial Mode, when EXT/INT is LOW, SDOUT is valid on both
edges of SCLK.
In Serial Mode, when EXT/INT is HIGH:
If INVSCLK is LOW, SDOUT is updated on SCLK rising edge and valid on the next falling edge.
If INVSCLK is HIGH, SDOUT is updated on SCLK falling edge and valid on the next rising edge.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 9 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this pin, part of the Serial Port, is used as a serial data clock input or
output, dependent upon the logic state of the EXT/INT pin. The active edge where the data SDOUT
is updated depends upon the logic state of the INVSCLK pin.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 10 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH, this output, part of the Serial Port, is used as a digital output frame
synchronization for use with the internal data clock (EXT/INT = Logic LOW). When a read sequence
is initiated and INVSYNC is LOW, SYNC is driven HIGH and remains HIGH while SDOUT
output is valid. When a read sequence is initiated and INVSYNC is HIGH, SYNC is driven LOW
and remains LOW while SDOUT output is valid.
When SER/PAR is LOW, this output is used as Bit 11 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus.
When SER/PAR is HIGH and EXT/INT is HIGH, this output, part of the Serial Port, is used as an
incomplete read error flag. In Slave Mode, when a data read is started and not complete when the
following conversion is complete, the current data is lost and RDERROR is pulsed HIGH.
Bit 12 to Bit 15 of the Parallel Port Data Output Bus. When SER/PAR is HIGH, these outputs are in
high impedance.
Busy Output. Transitions HIGH when a conversion is started and remains HIGH until the conversion
is complete and the data is latched into the on-chip shift register. The falling edge of BUSY could
be used as a data-ready clock signal.
Must Be Tied to Digital Ground.
Read Data. When CS and RD are both LOW, the Interface Parallel or Serial Output Bus is enabled.
Chip Select. When CS and RD are both LOW, the Interface Parallel or Serial Output Bus is enabled.
CS is also used to gate the external serial clock.
Reset Input. When set to a logic HIGH, reset the AD7671. Current conversion, if any, is aborted.
If not used, this pin could be tied to DGND.
Power-Down Input. When set to a logic HIGH, power consumption is reduced and conversions are
inhibited after the current one is completed.
Start Conversion. A falling edge on CNVST puts the internal sample-and-hold into the hold state
and initiates a conversion. In Impulse Mode (IMPULSE HIGH and WARP LOW), if CNVST is
held LOW when the acquisition phase (t8) is complete, the internal sample-and-hold is put into the
hold state and a conversion is immediately started.

DEFINITION OF SPECIFICATIONS
Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL)
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
A measurement of the resolution with a sine wave input. It is
related to S/(N+D) by the following formula:
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 1/2 LSB
before the first code transition. Positive full scale is defined as a
level 1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation is
measured from the middle of each code to the true straight line.
ENOB = (S/[N + D]dB – 1.76)/6.02)
and is expressed in bits.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The rms sum of the first five harmonic components to the rms
value of a full-scale input signal, expressed in decibels.
Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL)
In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. Differential
nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It is
often specified in terms of resolution for which no missing codes
are guaranteed.
Full-Scale Error
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
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 decibels.
The last transition (from 011 . . . 10 to 011 . . . 11 in twos
complement coding) should occur for an analog voltage 1 1/2 LSB
below the nominal full scale (2.499886 V for the ± 2.5 V range).
The full-scale error is the deviation of the actual level of the last
transition from the ideal level.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (S/[N+D])
Bipolar Zero Error
Aperture Delay
The difference between the ideal midscale input voltage (0 V) and
the actual voltage producing the midscale output code.
A measure of the acquisition performance measured from the
falling edge of the CNVST input to when the input signal is
held for a conversion.
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 decibels.
Unipolar Zero Error
In Unipolar Mode, the first transition should occur at a level
1/2 LSB above analog ground. The unipolar zero error is the
deviation of the actual transition from that point.
Transient Response
The time required for the AD7671 to achieve its rated accuracy
after a full-scale step function is applied to its input.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms amplitude of
the input signal and the peak spurious signal.

CONVERTER OPERATION
Modes of Operation
The AD7671 is a successive approximation analog-to-digital
converter based on a charge redistribution DAC. Figure 3 shows
the simplified schematic of the ADC. The input analog signal is
first scaled down and level shifted by the internal input resistive
scaler, which allows both unipolar ranges (0 V to 2.5 V, 0 V to 5 V,
and 0 V to 10 V) and bipolar ranges (± 2.5 V, ± 5 V, and ± 10 V).
The output voltage range of the resistive scaler is always 0 V to
2.5 V. The capacitive DAC consists of an array of 16 binary
weighted capacitors and an additional “LSB” capacitor. The
comparator’s negative input is connected to a “dummy” capacitor
of the same value as the capacitive DAC array.
The AD7671 features three modes of operation, Warp, Normal,
and Impulse. Each of these modes is more suitable for specific
applications.
During the acquisition phase, the common terminal of the array
tied to the comparator’s positive input is connected to AGND via
SWA. All independent switches are connected to the output of the
resistive scaler. Thus, the capacitor array is used as a sampling
capacitor and acquires the analog signal. Similarly, the dummy
capacitor acquires the analog signal on INGND input.
The Normal Mode is the fastest mode (800 kSPS) without any limitation about the time between conversions. This mode makes the
AD7671 ideal for asynchronous applications such as data acquisition systems, where both high accuracy and fast sample rate are
required.
By switching each element of the capacitor array between REFGND
or 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 first, in order to bring the
comparator back into a balanced condition. After the completion
of this process, the control logic generates the ADC output code
and brings BUSY output LOW.
The Impulse Mode, the lowest power dissipation mode, allows
power saving between conversions. The maximum throughput in
this mode is 666 kSPS. When operating at 100 SPS, for example,
it typically consumes only 15 mW. This feature makes the AD7671
ideal for battery-powered applications.
Transfer Functions
Using the OB/2C digital input, the AD7671 offers two output
codings: straight binary and twos complement. The ideal transfer
characteristic for the AD7671 is shown in Figure 4 and Table III.
ADC CODE – Straight Binary
When the acquisition phase is complete and the CNVST input goes
or is LOW, a conversion phase is initiated. When the conversion
phase begins, SWA and SWB are opened first. The capacitor array
and the dummy capacitor are then disconnected from the inputs and
connected to the REFGND input. Therefore, the differential
voltage between the output of the resistive scaler and INGND
captured at the end of the acquisition phase is applied to the
comparator inputs, causing the comparator to become unbalanced.
The Warp Mode allows the fastest conversion rate up to 1 MSPS.
However, in this mode, and this mode only, the full specified accuracy is guaranteed only when the time between conversion does
not exceed 1 ms. If the time between two consecutive conversions
is longer than 1 ms, for instance, after power-up, the first conversion result should be ignored. This mode makes the AD7671 ideal
for applications where both high accuracy and fast sample rate
are required.

The AD7671 is specified to operate with six full-scale analog input
ranges. Connections required for each of the four analog inputs,
IND, INC, INB, and INA, and the resulting full-scale ranges
are shown in Table I. The typical input impedance for each
analog input range is also shown.

Figure 6 shows a simplified analog input section of the AD7671.

resistive scaler that scales down and shifts the analog input range

Except when using the 0 V to 2.5 V analog input voltage range,
the AD7671 has to be driven by a very low impedance source to
avoid gain errors. That can be done by using a driver amplifier
whose choice is eased by the primarily resistive analog input
circuitry of the AD7671.

Figure 6. Simplified Analog Input
By connecting the four inputs INA, INB, INC, and IND to the
input signal itself, the ground, or a 2.5 V reference, other analog
input ranges can be obtained.
The diodes shown in Figure 6 provide ESD protection for the
four analog inputs. The inputs INB, INC, and IND have a high
voltage protection (–11 V to +30 V) to allow a wide input voltage
range. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog input signal
never exceeds the absolute ratings on these inputs, including
INA (0 V to 5 V). This will cause these diodes to become forwardbiased and start conducting current. These diodes can handle
a forward-biased current of 120 mA maximum. For instance,
when using the 0 V to 2.5 V input range, these conditions could
eventually occur on the input INA when the input buffer’s (U1)
supplies are different from AVDD. In such cases, an input buffer
with a short-circuit current limitation can be used to protect the part.
When using the 0 V to 2.5 V analog input voltage range, the input
impedance of the AD7671 is very high so the AD7671 can be
driven directly by a low impedance source without gain error.
That allows, as shown in Figure 5, putting an external one-pole
RC filter between the output of the amplifier output and the
ADC analog inputs to even further improve the noise filtering
done by the AD7671 analog input circuit. However, the source
impedance has to be kept low because it affects the ac performances, especially the total harmonic distortion (THD). The
maximum source impedance depends on the amount of total THD
that can be tolerated. The THD degradation is a function of the
source impedance and the maximum input frequency as shown
in Figure 8.
This analog input structure allows the sampling of the differential signal between the output of the resistive scaler and INGND.
Unlike other converters, the INGND input is sampled at the
same time as the inputs. By using this differential input, small
signals common to both inputs are rejected as shown in Figure 7,
which represents the typical CMRR over frequency. For instance,
by using INGND to sense a remote signal ground, the difference of
ground potentials between the sensor and the local ADC ground
is eliminated. During the acquisition phase for ac signals, the
AD7671 behaves like a one-pole RC filter consisting of the
equivalent resistance of the resistive scaler R/2 in series with R1
and CS. The resistor R1 is typically 100 W and is a lumped
component made up of some serial resistors and the on resistance of the switches.

AD7671
Driver Amplifier Choice
Voltage Reference Input
Although the AD7671 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier needs
to meet at least the following requirements:
The AD7671 uses an external 2.5 V voltage reference.
∑ The driver amplifier and the AD7671 analog input circuit
must be able, together, to settle for a full-scale step the capacitor array at a 16-bit level (0.0015%). In the amplifier’s data
sheet, the settling at 0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. It could significantly differ from the settling time at
16-bit level and it should therefore be verified prior to the
driver selection. The tiny op amp AD8021, which combines
ultralow noise and a high gain bandwidth, meets this settling
time requirement even when used with a high gain up to 13.
∑ 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 AD7671. The noise coming
from the driver is first scaled down by the resistive scaler
according to the analog input voltage range used and is then

f–3 dB is the –3 dB input bandwidth in MHz of the AD7671
(9.6 MHz) or the cutoff frequency of the input filter if
any used (0 V to 2.5 V range).
N
is the noise factor of the amplifier (1 if in buffer
configuration).
eN
is the equivalent input noise voltage of the op amp
in nV/冪Hz.
FSR is the full-scale span (i.e., 5 V for ± 2.5 V range).
For instance, when using the 0 V to 5 V range, a driver like
the AD8021, with an equivalent input noise of 2 nV/冪Hz and
configured as a buffer, thus with a noise gain of 1, the SNR
degrades by only 0.08 dB.
∑ The driver needs to have a THD performance suitable to that
of the AD7671. TPC 11 gives the THD versus frequency
that the driver should preferably exceed.
The AD8021 meets these requirements and is usually appropriate
for almost all applications. The AD8021 needs an external compensation capacitor of 10 pF. This capacitor should have good
linearity as an NPO ceramic or mica type.
The AD8022 could also be used where a dual version is needed
and a gain of 1 is used.
The AD829 is another alternative where high frequency (above
100 kHz) performance is not required. In a gain of 1, it requires
an 82 pF compensation capacitor.
The voltage reference input REF of the AD7671 has a dynamic
input impedance; it should therefore be driven by a low impedance
source with an efficient decoupling between REF and REFGND
inputs. This decoupling depends on the choice of the voltage
reference but usually consists of a 1 mF ceramic capacitor and a
low ESR tantalum capacitor connected to the REF and REFGND
inputs with minimum parasitic inductance. 47 mF is an appropriate
value for the tantalum capacitor when used with one of the
recommended reference voltages:
∑ The low noise, low temperature drift ADR421 and AD780
voltage references
∑ The low power ADR291 voltage reference
∑ The low cost AD1582 voltage reference
For applications using multiple AD7671s, it is more effective to
buffer the reference voltage with a low noise, very stable op amp
like the AD8031.
Care should also be taken with the reference temperature coefficient of the voltage reference that directly affects the full-scale
accuracy if this parameter matters. For instance, a ± 15 ppm/∞C
temperature coefficient of the reference changes the full scale
by ± 1 LSB/∞C.
Note that VREF , as mentioned in the Specifications table, could
be increased to AVDD – 1.85 V. The benefit here is the increased
SNR obtained as a result of this increase. Since the input range
is defined in terms of VREF, this would essentially increase the
± REF range from ± 2.5 V to ± 3 V and so on with an AVDD
above 4.85 V. The theoretical improvement as a result of this
increase in reference is 1.58 dB (20 log [3/2.5]). Due to the
theoretical quantization noise, however, the observed improvement is approximately 1 dB. The AD780 can be selected with a
3 V reference voltage.
Scaler Reference Input (Bipolar Input Ranges)
When using the AD7671 with bipolar input ranges, the connection diagram in Figure 5 shows a reference buffer amplifier. This
buffer amplifier is required to isolate the REF pin from the signal
dependent current in the INx pin. A high speed op amp, such as the
AD8031, can be used with a single 5 V power supply without
degrading the performance of the AD7671. The buffer must have
good settling characteristics and provide low total noise within
the input bandwidth of the AD7671.
Power Supply
The AD7671 uses three sets of power supply pins: an analog 5 V
supply AVDD, a digital 5 V core supply DVDD, and a digital
input/output interface supply OVDD. The OVDD supply allows
direct interface with any logic working between 2.7 V and DVDD
+ 0.3 V. To reduce the number of supplies needed, the digital core
(DVDD) can be supplied through a simple RC filter from the
analog supply as shown in Figure 5. The AD7671 is independent
of power supply sequencing, once OVDD does not exceed DVDD
by more than 0.3 V, and thus free from supply voltage induced
latch-up. Additionally, it is very insensitive to power supply variations over a wide frequency range as shown in Figure 9.
The AD8610 is another option where low bias current is needed
in low frequency applications.

CONVERSION CONTROL
Figure 11 shows the detailed timing diagrams of the conversion
process. The AD7671 is controlled by the signal CNVST, which
initiates conversion. Once initiated, it cannot be restarted or
aborted, even by the power-down input PD, until the conversion
is complete. The CNVST signal operates independently of CS
and RD signals.

POWER DISSIPATION
MODE
In Impulse Mode, the AD7671 automatically reduces its power
consumption at the end of each conversion phase. During the
acquisition phase, the operating currents are very low, which allows a
significant power savings when the conversion rate is reduced,
as shown in Figure 10. This feature makes the AD7671 ideal for
very low power battery applications.
This does not take into account the power, if any, dissipated by
the input resistive scaler, which depends on the input voltage
range used and the analog input voltage even in Power-Down
Mode. There is no power dissipated when the 0 V to 2.5 V is used
or when both the analog input voltage is 0 V and a unipolar range,
0 V to 5 V or 0 V to 10 V, is used.
It should be noted that the digital interface remains active even
during the acquisition phase. To reduce the operating digital
supply currents even further, the digital inputs need to be driven
close to the power rails (i.e., DVDD and DGND) and OVDD
should not exceed DVDD by more than 0.3 V.

Figure 11. Basic Conversion Timing
In Impulse Mode, conversions can be automatically initiated. If
CNVST is held LOW when BUSY is LOW, the AD7671 controls
the acquisition phase and then automatically initiates a new conversion. By keeping CNVST LOW, the AD7671 keeps the conversion
process running by itself. It should be noted that the analog input
has to be settled when BUSY goes LOW. Also, at power-up,
CNVST should be brought LOW once to initiate the conversion
process. In this mode, the AD7671 could sometimes run slightly
faster than the guaranteed limits in the Impulse Mode of
666 kSPS. This feature does not exist in Warp or Normal Modes.
Although CNVST is a digital signal, it should be designed with
special care with fast, clean edges, and levels with minimum overshoot and undershoot or ringing. It is a good thing to shield the
CNVST trace with ground and also to add a low value serial
resistor (i.e., 50 W) termination close to the output of the
component that drives this line.
For applications where the SNR is critical, the CNVST signal
should have a very low jitter. To achieve this, some use a dedicated
oscillator for CNVST generation, or at least to clock it with a
high frequency low jitter clock as shown in Figure 5.

AD7671
DIGITAL INTERFACE
CS = 0
The AD7671 has a versatile digital interface; it can be interfaced
with the host system by using either a serial or parallel interface.
The serial interface is multiplexed on the parallel data bus. The
AD7671 digital interface also accommodates both 3 V or 5 V logic
by simply connecting the OVDD supply pin of the AD7671 to the
host system interface digital supply. Finally, by using the OB/2C
input pin, straight binary and twos complement coding can be used.
The two signals CS and RD control the interface. When at least
one of these signals is HIGH, the interface outputs are in high
impedance. Usually, CS allows the selection of each AD7671 in
multicircuit applications and is held LOW in a single AD7671
design. RD is generally used to enable the conversion result on
the data bus.

recommended that it be read-only during the first half of the conversion phase. That avoids any potential feedthrough between
voltage transients on the digital interface and the most critical
analog conversion circuitry.

The AD7671 is configured to accept an externally supplied
serial data clock on the SCLK pin when the EXT/INT pin is
held HIGH. In this mode, several methods can be used to read
the data. The external serial clock is gated by CS and the data
are output when both CS and RD are LOW. Thus, depending on
CS, the data can be read after each conversion or during the following conversion. The external clock can be either a continuous or
discontinuous clock. A discontinuous clock can be either normally
HIGH or normally LOW when inactive. Figures 19 and 21
show the detailed timing diagrams of these methods.

AD7671
MASTER SERIAL INTERFACE
Internal Clock
The AD7671 is configured to generate and provide the serial data
clock SCLK when the EXT/INT pin is held LOW. It also generates a SYNC signal to indicate to the host when the serial data is
valid. The serial clock SCLK and the SYNC signal can be inverted
if desired. Depending on RDC/SDIN input, the data can be read
after each conversion or during conversion. Figures 17 and 18
show the detailed timing diagrams of these two modes.
Usually, because the AD7671 is used with a fast throughput, the
mode master, read during conversion, is the most recommended
Serial Mode when it can be used.
EXT/INT = 0
CS, RD
In Read-during-Conversion Mode, the serial clock and data toggle
at appropriate instants, which minimizes potential feedthrough
between digital activity and the critical conversion decisions.
In Read-after-Conversion Mode, it should be noted that unlike
in other modes, the signal BUSY returns LOW after the 16 data
bits are pulsed out and not at the end of the conversion phase,
which results in a longer BUSY width.
While the AD7671 is performing a bit decision, it is important that
voltage transients not occur on digital input/output pins or degradation of the conversion result could occur. This is particularly
important during the second half of the conversion phase because

the AD7671 provides error correction circuitry that can correct
for an improper bit decision made during the first half of the
conversion phase. For this reason, it is recommended that when
an external clock is being provided, it is a discontinuous clock
that is toggling only when BUSY is LOW or, more importantly,
that does not transition during the latter half of BUSY HIGH.

External Discontinuous Clock Data Read after Conversion
Among the advantages of this method, the conversion performance is not degraded because there are no voltage transients
on the digital interface during the conversion process.
Another advantage is to be able to read the data at any speed up to
40 MHz, which accommodates both slow digital host interface
and the fastest serial reading.
Finally, in this mode only, the AD7671 provides a “daisy-chain”
feature using the RDC/SDIN input pin for cascading multiple
converters together. This feature is useful for reducing component
count and wiring connections when desired as, for instance, in
isolated multiconverter applications.
An example of the concatenation of two devices is shown in Figure 20. Simultaneous sampling is possible by using a common
CNVST signal. It should be noted that the RDC/SDIN input is
latched on the opposite edge of SCLK of the one used to shift out
the data on SDOUT. Therefore, the MSB of the “upstream”
converter just follows the LSB of the “downstream” converter
on the next SCLK cycle.

current conversion is complete. If that is not done, RDERROR
is pulsed HIGH and can be used to interrupt the host interface
to prevent incomplete data reading. There is no daisy-chain feature
in this mode, and RDC/SDIN input should always be tied either

To reduce performance degradation due to digital activity, a fast
discontinuous clock of at least 25 MHz when Impulse Mode is
used, 32 MHz when Normal or 40 MHz when Warp Mode is
used, is recommended to ensure that all the bits are read during
the first half of the conversion phase. It is also possible to begin
to read the data after conversion and continue to read the last bits
even after a new conversion has been initiated. That allows the use
of a slower clock speed like 18 MHz in Impulse Mode, 21 MHz
in Normal Mode, and 26 MHz in Warp Mode.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The AD7671 is ideally suited for traditional dc measurement
applications supporting a microprocessor and ac signal processing
applications interfacing to a digital signal processor. The AD7671
is designed to interface either with a parallel 8-bit or 16-bit wide
interface or with a general-purpose Serial Port or I/O Ports on a
microcontroller. A variety of external buffers can be used with
the AD7671 to prevent digital noise from coupling into the ADC.
The following sections illustrate the use of the AD7671 with an
SPI equipped microcontroller, the ADSP-21065L and ADSP-218x
signal processors.
SPI Interface (MC68HC11)
Figure 22 shows an interface diagram between the AD7671 and an
SPI-equipped microcontroller, such as the MC68HC11. To accommodate the slower speed of the microcontroller, the AD7671 acts as
a slave device and data must be read after conversion. This mode
also allows the daisy-chain feature. The convert command could be
initiated in response to an internal timer interrupt. The reading of
output data, one byte at a time if necessary, could be initiated in
response to the end-of-conversion signal (BUSY going low) using
an interrupt line of the microcontroller. The serial peripheral
interface (SPI) on the MC68HC11 is configured for Master Mode
(MSTR) = 1, Clock Polarity Bit (CPOL) = 0, Clock Phase Bit
(CPHA) = 1, and SPI interrupt enable (SPIE) = 1 by writing to
the SPI Control Register (SPCR). The IRQ is configured for edgesensitive-only operation (IRQE = 1 in the OPTION register).
Figure 22. Interfacing the AD7671 to SPI Interface
ADSP-21065L in Master Serial Interface
As shown in Figure 23, the AD7671 can be interfaced to the
ADSP-21065L using the serial interface in Master Mode without
any glue logic required. This mode combines the advantages
of reducing the wire connections and the ability to read the
data during or after conversion at maximum speed transfer
(DIVSCLK[0:1] both low).
The AD7671 is configured for the Internal Clock Mode (EXT/INT
LOW) and acts therefore as the master device. The convert
command can be generated by either an external low jitter oscillator or, as shown, by a FLAG output of the ADSP-21065L or by
a frame output TFS of one Serial Port of the ADSP-21065L, which
can be used like a timer. The Serial Port on the ADSP-21065L
is configured for external clock (IRFS = 0), rising edge active
(CKRE = 1), external late framed sync signals (IRFS = 0,
LAFS = 1, RFSR = 1), and active HIGH (LRFS = 0). The Serial
Port of the ADSP-21065L is configured by writing to its receive
control register (SRCTL)—see ADSP-2106x SHARC User’s
Manual. Because the Serial Port within the ADSP-21065L will
be seeing a discontinuous clock, an initial word reading has to
be done after the ADSP-21065L has been reset to ensure that
the Serial Port is properly synchronized to this clock during each
following data read operation.

Layout
The AD7671 has very good immunity to noise on the power
supplies as can be seen in Figure 9. However, care should still
be taken with regard to grounding layout.
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7671 should be
designed so the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the use of ground
planes that can be easily separated. Digital and analog ground
planes should be joined in only one place, preferably underneath
the AD7671, or, at least, as close as possible to the AD7671. If
the AD7671 is in a system where multiple devices require analogto-digital ground connections, the connection should still be made at
one point only, a star ground point, which should be established
as close as possible to the AD7671.
It is recommended to avoid running digital lines under the device
as these will couple noise onto the die. The analog ground plane
should be allowed to run under the AD7671 to avoid noise
coupling. Fast switching signals like CNVST or clocks should
be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other
sections of the board and should never run near analog signal
paths. Crossover of digital and analog signals should be avoided.
Traces on different but close layers of the board should run at right
angles to each other. This will reduce the effect of feedthrough
through the board.
REV. C
The power supply lines to the AD7671 should use as large a trace
as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect of
glitches on the power supply lines. Good decoupling is also important to lower the supplies impedance presented to the AD7671
and to reduce the magnitude of the supply spikes. Decoupling
ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF, should be placed on all of
the power supply pins power supplies pins AVDD, DVDD, and
OVDD close to, and ideally right up against, these pins and
their corresponding ground pins. Additionally, low ESR 10 mF
capacitors should be located in the vicinity of the ADC to further
reduce low frequency ripple.
The DVDD supply of the AD7671 can be either a separate supply or come from the analog supply, AVDD, or from the digital
interface supply, OVDD. When the system digital supply is noisy,
or fast switching digital signals are present, it is recommended,
if no separate supply is available, to connect the DVDD digital
supply to the analog supply AVDD through an RC filter as shown
in Figure 5 and to connect the system supply to the interface
digital supply OVDD and the remaining digital circuitry. When
DVDD is powered from the system supply, it is useful to insert
a bead to further reduce high frequency spikes.
The AD7671 has five different ground pins: INGND, REFGND,
AGND, DGND, and OGND. INGND is used to sense the
analog input signal. REFGND senses the reference voltage and
should be a low impedance return to the reference because it carries
pulsed currents. AGND is the ground to which most internal ADC
analog signals are referenced. This ground must be connected
with the least resistance to the analog ground plane. DGND must
be tied to the analog or digital ground plane depending on the
configuration. OGND is connected to the digital system ground.
The layout of the decoupling of the reference voltage is important.
The decoupling capacitor should be close to the ADC and connected with short and large traces to minimize parasitic inductances.
Evaluating the AD7671 Performance
A recommended layout for the AD7671 is outlined in the evaluation board for the AD7671. The evaluation board package includes
a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documentation,
and software for controlling the board from a PC via the EvalControl Board.
