Features
The Intersil CA3310 is a fast, low power, 10-bit successive
approximation analog-to-digital converter, with
microprocessor-compatible outputs. It uses only a single 3V
to 6V supply and typically draws just 3mA when operating at
5V. It can accept full rail-to-rail input signals, and features a
built-in track and hold. The track and hold will follow high
bandwidth input signals, as it has only a 100ns (typical) input
time constant.

CA3310, CA3310A
Device Operation
The CA3310 is a CMOS 10-bit, analog-to-digital converter
that uses capacitor-charge balancing to successively
approximate the analog input. A binarily weighted capacitor
network forms the D-to-A “Heart” of the device. See the
Functional Diagram of the CA3310.
The capacitor network has a common node which is connected
to a comparator. The second terminal of each capacitor is
individually switchable to the input, VREF+ or VREF -.
During the first three clock periods of a conversion cycle, the
switchable end of every capacitor is connected to the input.
The comparator is being auto-balanced at its trip point, thus
setting the voltage at the capacitor common node.
During the fourth period, all capacitors are disconnected
from the input, the one representing the MSB (D9) is
connected to the VREF + terminal, and the remaining
capacitors to V REF -. The capacitor-common node, after the
charges balance out, will represent whether the input was
above or below 1/2 of (VREF + - VREF).
At the end of the fourth period, the comparator output is stored
and the MSB capacitor is either left connected to VREF+ (if the
comparator was high) or returned to VREF -. This allows the
next comparison to be at either 3/4 or 1/4 of (VREF + - VREF -).
At the end of periods 5 through 12, capacitors representing
the next to MSB (D8) through the next to LSB (D1) are
tested, the result stored, and each capacitor either left at
VREF + or at VREF -.
At the end of the 13th period, when the LSB (D0) capacitor is
tested, D0 and all the previous results are shifted to the
output registers and drivers. The capacitors are reconnected
to the input, the comparator returns to the balance state, and
the data-ready output goes active. The conversion cycle is
now complete.
Clock
The CA3310 can operate either from its internal clock or
from one externally supplied. The CLK pin functions either
as the clock output or input. All converter functions are
synchronous with the rising edge of the clock signal.
Figure 16 shows the configuration of the internal clock. The
clock output drive is low power: if used as an output, it
should not have more than 1 CMOS gate load applied, and
wiring capacitance should be kept to a minimum.

ADJUST
The REXT pin allows adjusting of the internal clock
frequency by connecting a resistor between REXT and CLK.
Figure 6 shows the typical relationship between the resistor
and clock speed, while Figure 7 shows clock speed versus
temperature and supply voltage.
The internal clock will shut down if the A/D is not restarted after
a conversion. This is described under Control Timing. The clock
could also be shut down with an open collector driver applied to
the CLK pin. This should only be done during the sample
portion (the first three periods) of a conversion cycle, and might
be useful for using the device as a digital sample and hold: this
is described further under Applications.
If an external clock is supplied to the CLK pin, it must have
sufficient drive to overcome the internal clock source. The
external clock can be shut off, but again only during the sample
portion of a conversion cycle. At other times, it must be above
the minimum frequency shown in the specifications.
If the internal or external clock was shut off during the
conversion time (clock cycles 4 through 13) of the A/D, the
output might be invalid due to balancing capacitor droop.
An external clock must also meet the minimum tLOW and
tHIGH times shown in the specifications. A violation may
cause an internal miscount and invalidate the results.
Control Signals
The CA3310 may be synchronized from an external source
by using the STRT (Start Conversion) input to initiate
conversions, or if STRT is tied low, may be allowed to freerun. In the free-running mode, illustrated in Figure 1, each
conversion takes 13 clock periods.
The input is tracked from clock period 1 through period 3,
then disconnected as the successive approximation takes
place. After the start of the next period 1 (specified by TD
data), the output is updated.
The DRDY (Data Ready) status output goes high (specified
by tD1 DRDY) after the start of clock period 1, and returns
low (specified by tD2 DRDY) after the start of clock period 2.
DRDY may also be asynchronously reset by a low on DRST
(to be discussed later).
If the output data is to be latched externally by the DRDY
signal, the trailing edge of DRDY should be used: there is no
guaranteed set-up time to the leading edge.
The 10 output data bits are available in parallel on three- state
bus driver outputs. When low, the OEM input enables the most
significant byte (D2 through D9) while the OEL input enables
the two least significant bits (D0, D1). tEN and tDIS specify the
output enable and disable times, respectively. See Figure 2.
When the STRT input is used to initiate conversions,
operation is slightly different depending on whether an
internal or external clock is used.

period 1, and is not reapplied during that period, the clock
will shut off after entering period 2. The input will continue to
track the DRDY output will remain high during this time.
A low signal applied to STRT (at least tW STRT wide) can
now initiate a new conversion. The STRT signal (after a
delay of tD3 DRDY) will cause the DRDY flag to drop, and
(after a delay of tD CLK) cause the clock to restart.
Depending on how long the clock was shut off, the low
portion of clock period 2 may be longer than during the
remaining cycles.
The input will continue to track until the end of period 3, the
same as when free-running.
Figure 4 illustrates the same operation as above, but with an
external clock. If STRT is removed (at least tR STRT) before
clock period 1, and not reapplied during that period, the
clock will continue to cycle in period 2. A low signal applied
to STRT will drop the DRDY flag as before, and with the first
positive-going clock edge that meets the tSU STRT set-up
time, the converter will continue with clock period 3.
The DRDY flag output, as described previously, goes active
at the start of period 1, and drops at the start of period 2 or
upon a new STRT command, whichever is later. It may also
be controlled with the DRST (Data Ready Reset) input.
Figure 5 depicts this operation.
DRST must be removed (at least tR DRST) before the start of
period 1 to allow DRDY to go high. A low level on DRST (at least
tW DRST wide) will (after a delay of tD4 DRDY) drop DRDY.
Analog Input
The analog input pin is a predominantly capacitive load that
changes between the track and hold periods of a conversion
cycle. During hold, clock period 4 through 13, the input
loading is leakage and stray capacitance, typically less than
0.1µA and 20pF.
At the start of input tracking, clock period 1, some charge is
dumped back to the input pin. The input source must have
low enough impedance to dissipate the charge by the end of
the tracking period. The amount of charge is dependent on
supply and input voltages. Figure 8 shows typical peak input
currents for various supply and input voltages, while Figure 9
shows typical average input currents. The average current is
also proportional to clock frequency, and should be scaled
accordingly.
During tracking, the input appears as approximately a 300pF
capacitor in series with 330Ω, for a 100ns time constant. A
full-scale input swing would settle to 1/2 LSB (1/2048) in 7RC
time constants. Doing continuous conversions with a 1MHz
clock provides 3µs of tracking time, so up to 1kΩ of external
source impedance (400ns time constant) would allow proper
settling of a step input.
If the clock was slower, or the converter was not restarted
immediately (causing a longer sample lime), a higher source
impedance could be used.
11
The CA3310s low-input time constant also allows good
tracking of dynamic input waveforms. The sampling rate with
a 1MHz clock is approximately 80kHz. A Nyquist rate
(fSAMPLE/2) input sine wave of 40kHz would have negligible
attenuation and a phase lag of only 1.5 degrees.
Accuracy Specifications
The CA3310 accepts an analog input between the values of
VREF - and VREF +, and quantizes it into one of 210 or 1024
output codes. Each code should exist as the input is varied
through a range of 1/1024 x (VREF+ - VREF -), referred to as
1 LSB of input voltage. A differential Iinearity error, illustrated in
Figure 17, occurs if an output code occurs over other than the
ideal (1 LSB) input range. Note that as long as the error does
not reach -1 LSB, the converter will not miss any codes.

FIGURE 17. DIFFERENTIAL LINEARITY ERROR
The CA3310 output should change from a code of 00016 to
001 16 at an input voltage of (V REF - +1 LSB). It should also
change from a code of 3FE16 to 3FF16 at an input of
(VREF + -1 LSB). Any differences between the actual and
expected input voltages that cause these transitions are
the offset and gain errors, respectively. Figure 18 illustrates
these errors.
As the input voltage is increased linearly from the point that
causes the 00016 to 00116 transition to the point that
causes the 3FE16 to 3FF16 transition, the output code
should also increase linearly. Any deviation from this
input-to-output correspondence is integral linearity error,
illustrated in Figure 19.
Note that the integral linearity is referenced to a straight line
drawn through the actual end points, not the ideal end points.
For absolute accuracy to be equal to the integral linearity, the
gain and offset would have to be adjusted to ideal.
Offset and Gain Adjustments
The VREF + and VREF - pins, references for the two ends of
the analog input range, are the only means of doing offset or

There are current pulses that occur, however, during the
successive approximation part of a conversion cycle, as the
charge-balancing capacitors are switched between VREF - and
VREF +. For that reason, VREF - and VREF + should be well
bypassed. Figure 10 shows peak and average VREF + current.
gain adjustments. In a typical system, the VREF - might be
returned to a clean ground, and offset adjustment done on
an input amplifier. VREF + would then be adjusted for gain.
VREF - could be raised from ground to adjust offset or to
accommodate an input source that can’t drive down to ground.

Other Accuracy Effects
Linearity, offset, and gain errors are dependent on the
magnitude of the full-scale input range, V REF + - VREF -.
Figure 11 shows how these errors vary with full-scale range.
The clocking speed is a second factor that affects
conversion accuracy. Figure 12 shows the typical variation
of linearity, offset, and gain errors versus clocking speed.
Gain and offset drift due to temperature are kept very low by
means of auto-balancing the comparator. The specifications
show typical offset and gain dependency on temperature.
There is also very little linearity change with temperature, only
that caused by the slight slowing of CMOS with increasing
temperature. At 85oC, for instance, the lLE and DLE would be
typically those for a 20% faster clock than at 25oC.
Power Supplies and Grounding
VDD (+) and VSS(GND) are the digital supply pins: they
operate all internal logic and the output drivers. Because the
output drivers can cause fast current spikes in the V DD and
VSS lines, VSS should have a low impedance path to digital
ground and VDD should be well bypassed.
Except for VDD +, which is a substrate connection to VDD , all
pins have protection diodes connected to VDD and VSS :
input transients above VDD or below VSS will get steered to
the digital supplies. Current on these pins must be limited by
external means to the values specified under maximum
ratings.
The VAA + and VAA - terminals supply the charge-balancing
comparator only. Because the comparator is autobalanced
between conversions, it has good low frequency supply
rejection. It does not reject well at high frequencies,
however: VAA - should be returned to a clean analog ground,
and VAA + should be RC decoupled from the digital supply.
There is approximately 50ÞΩ of substrate impedance
between V DD and VAA +. This can be used, for example, as
part of a low-pass RC filter to attenuate switching supply
noise. A 10pF capacitor from VAA + to ground would
attenuate 30kHz noise by approximately 40dB. Note that
back-to-back diodes should be placed from VDD to VAA + to
handle supply to capacitor turn-on or turn-off current
spikes.
Figure 16 shows VAA + supply rejection versus frequency.
Note that the frequency to be rejected scales with the clock:
the 100Hz rejection with a 100kHz clock would be roughly
equivalent to the 1kHz rejection with a 1MHz clock.
The supply current for the CA3310 is dependent on clock
frequency, supply voltage, and temperature. Figure 14
shows the typical current versus frequency and voltage,
while Figure 15 shows it versus temperature and voltage.
Note that if stopped in auto-balance, the supply current is
typically somewhat higher than if free-running. See
Specifications.

Differential Input A/D System
As the CA3310 accepts a unipolar positive-analog input, the
accommodation of other ranges requires additional circuitry.
The input capacitance and the input energy also force using
a low-impedance source for all but slow speed use. Figure
20 shows the CA3310 with a reference, input amplifier, and
input-scaling resistors for several input ranges.
The ICL7663S regulator was chosen as the reference, as it
can deliver less than 0.25V input-to-output (dropout) voltage
and uses very little power. As high a reference as possible is
generally desirable, resulting in the best linearity and
rejection of noise at the CA3310.
The tantalum capacitor sources the VREF current spikes
during a conversion cycle. This relieves the response and
peak current requirements of the reference.
The CA3140 operational amplifier provides good slewing
capability for high bandwidth input signals and can quickly
settle the energy that the CA3310 outputs at its VlN terminal.
It can also drive close to the negative supply rail.
If system supply sequencing or an unknown input voltage is
likely to cause the operational amplifier to drive above the
VDD supply, a diode clamp can be added from pin 8 of the
operational amplifier to the V DD supply. The minus drive
current is low enough not to require protection.
With a 2MHz clock (~150kHz sampling), Nyquist criteria
would give a maximum input bandwidth of 75kHz. The
resistor values chosen are low enough to not seriously
degrade system bandwidth (an operational amplifier settling)
at that clock frequency. If A/D clock frequency and
bandwidth requirements are lower, the resistor values (and
input impedance) can be made correspondingly higher.
The A/D system would generally be calibrated by tying V lN to ground and applying a voltage to VIN + that is 0.5 LSB
(1/2048 of full-scale range) above ground. The operational
amplifier offset should be adjusted for an output code
dithering between 00016 and 00116 for unipolar use, or
10016 and 10116 for bipolar use. The gain would then be
adjusted by applying a voltage that is 1.5 LSB below the
positive full scale input, and adjusting the reference for an
output dithering between 3FE16 and 3FF16 .
Note that R1 through R5 should be very well matched, as
they affect the common-mode rejection of the A/D system.
Also, if R2 and R3 are not matched, the offset adjust of the
operational amplifier may not have enough adjustment
range in bipolar systems.
The common-mode input range of the system is set by the
supply voltage available to the operational amplifier. The range
that can be applied to the VIN - terminal can be calculated by:
 R4
------- R5
 R4
------- R5

CD74HC175 will now release the clock, and the sample will
end as it goes positive. Ten cycles later, the conversion will
be complete, and DRDY will go active.
Single +5V Supply
If only a single +5V supply is available, an ICL7660 can be
used to provide approximately +8V and -4V to the operational
amplifier. Figure 20 shows this approach. Note that the
converter and associated capacitors should be grounded to the
digital supply. The 1kΩ in series with each supply at the
operational amplifier isolates digital and analog grounds.

To prevent damage to the input protection circuit, input

FIGURE 20. USING ICL7660 TO GENERATE SUPPLIES
Digital Sample and Hold
With a minimum of external logic, the CA3310 can be made to
wait at the verge of ending a sample. A start pulse will then,
after the internal aperture delay, capture the input and finish the
conversion cycle. Figure 21 illustrates this application.
UNUSED INPUTS
A connection must be provided at every input terminal. All
unused Input terminals must be connected to either VDD or
VSS , whichever is appropriate.
The CA3310 is connected as if to free run. The Data Ready
signal is shifted through a CD74HC175, and at the low-going
clock edge just before the sample would end, is used to hold
the clock low.
OUTPUT SHORT CIRCUITS
Shorting of outputs to VDD or VSS may damage CMOS
devices by exceeding the maximum device dissipation.
