The AD8401 is a complete data acquisition and control system
containing ADC, DAC, 4-channel MUX, and internal voltage
reference. Built using CBCMOS, this monolithic circuit offers
the user a complete system with very high package density and
reliability.
The converter is a successive approximation ADC with T/H,
and is capable of operating with conversion times as short as
2 µs. Analog input bandwidth is 200 kHz, and DAC output voltage settling time is less than 4 µs, making the AD8401 capable
of controlling servo loops with speed and precision.

The input multiplexer addressing is designed for direct interface
to the AD899 hard-disk drive, read-channel device with no extra
hardware or special software. Analog input range levels are likewise compatible with the AD899.
The AD8401 is designed to operate from a single +5 volt supply, which will give an ADC input range of 0 V to 3.0 V, and
DAC output range of 0 V to 2.5 V.
The AD8401 is offered in the SOIC-28 surface mount package,
and is guaranteed to operate over the extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
The 8-bit data interface provides both read and write operation
for parallel bus interfaces to microcontrollers and DSP processors. An external 5 MHz clock sets the 2 µs conversion rate.
Slower clocks reduce the conversion time and the internal power
dissipation. The standard control lines: Reset, Busy, Interrupt,
Read and Write complete the handshaking signals for microprocessor communication. A start trigger ST input allows precise sampling intervals in synchronous sampling applications.

AD8401
Figure 4 shows the wave forms for a conversion cycle. The track
and hold begins holding the input voltage VIN approximately
50 ns after the falling edge of the Start command. The MSB decision is made approximately 50 ns after the second falling edge
of the CLK. If tX is greater than 50 ns, then the falling edge of
the CLK will be seen as the first falling clock edge. If tX is less
than 50 ns, the first MSB conversion will not occur until one
clock cycle later. The following bits will each be converted in a
similar manner 50 ns after each CLK edge until all eight bits
have been converted. After the end of conversion the contents of
the ADC SAR register are transferred to the output data latch,
the track and hold is returned to the track mode, INT goes low
and the SAR is reset.
OPERATION
The AD8401 is a complete data acquisition and control system.
It contains the DAC, a four channel input multiplexer, a track/
hold, an ADC, as well as an internal bandgap reference. It interfaces to the microcontroller via an 8-bit digital I/O port.
D/A CONVERTER SECTION
The DAC is an 8-bit voltage mode DAC with an output that
swings from AGDAC to the 1.25 volt bandgap voltage. It uses an
R-2R ladder fed by PNP current sources which allow the output
to swing to ground so that the DAC operates in a unipolar mode.
AMPLIFIER SECTION
The DAC’s output is buffered by an internal high speed op
amp. The op amps output range is set at 0 V to 2.5 V. The op
amp has a 500 ns typical settling time to 0.2% for positive
slewing signals. There are differences in settling time for negative slewing signals. Signals going to zero volts will settle slightly
slower to ground than is seen in the positive direction.

ANALOG INPUT
The analog inputs of the AD8401 are fed into resistor voltage
divider networks with a typical value of 8.5 kΩ. The amplifiers
driving these inputs must have an output resistance low enough
to drive these nodes without losing accuracy. Taps from the
voltage dividers are connected to the track and hold amplifier by
the multiplexer switches.
AG DAC

Current sinking capability is also limited near zero volts in single
supply operation. Figure 3 provides an equivalent amplifier output stage schematic.
INTERNAL REFERENCE
5kΩ
An on-chip bandgap is provided as a voltage reference to both
the DAC and the ADC. This reference is internal to the
AD8401 and is not accessible to the user. It is laser trimmed for
both absolute accuracy and temperature coefficients. The reference is internally buffered by a separate control amplifier for both
the DAC and ADC to improve isolation between the converters.

DIGITAL I/O
The 8-bit parallel data I/O port on the AD8401 provides access
to both the DAC and the ADC. This port is TTL/CMOS compatible with three-state outputs that are ESD protected.
Figure 5. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit
TRACK-AND-HOLD AMPLIFIER
The data format is binary. This data coding applies to both the
DAC and the ADC. See the applications information section.
Following the resistive divider at the input of the AD8401 is a
track-and-hold amplifier that captures input signals accurately
up to the 200 kHz Nyquist frequency of the ADC. To attain this
performance the T/H amplifier must have a much greater bandwidth than the signal of interest. Because of this the user must
be careful to band limit the input signal to avoid aliasing high
frequency components and noise into the passband.
ADC SECTION
A fast successive approximation ADC is used to attain a conversion time of 2 microseconds. Start of conversion is initiated by
CS and RD. Following a Start command the BUSY signal will
become active and another Start command should not be given
until the conversion is complete.
The track-and-hold amplifier is internally controlled by the Start
command and is not directly available to the user. After the
Start command signal the track-and-hold is placed into the hold
mode; it returns to the track mode after the conversion is
complete.
The RESET (RS) input does not affect A/D conversion, but the
INT (Interrupt or conversion complete) which normally goes
active low at the end of a conversion will be forced high by
RESET asynchronously.

DIGITAL INTERFACE: ADC TIMING AND CONTROL
Two basic ADC operating modes are available with the
AD8401. The first mode uses the Start (ST) pin to trigger a
synchronized A/D conversion. As soon as the ST pin is asserted,
the T/H switches from tracking to the hold mode capturing the
present analog input-voltage sample. With the T/H holding the
analog sample the successive-approximation analog-to-digital
conversion is completed on that sample value. At the end of
conversion the T/H returns to the tracking mode. This mode of
conversion is ideal for digital signal processing applications
where precise interval sampling is necessary to minimize errors
due to sampling uncertainty or jitter. A precise clock source can
be used to drive the ST input.
The second mode of conversion is started by the RD and CS inputs going low, after which the BUSY line puts the microprocessor into a WAIT state until end of conversion. Mode 2 is
asserted by connecting the ST pin to logic high. The major advantage of this interface is that a single Read Instruction will
start and complete a new analog-to-digital conversion without
the need for carefully tailored software delays that often are not
portable when software routines are taken to a different processor running at a different clock speed.

Figure 7. Mode 2, ADC Interface Timing
Mode 2 Interface
This interface mode can be used with microprocessors that can
be put into a WAIT state for at least 2 microseconds. The ST
pin must be tied to logic high for proper operation. The microprocessor begins a conversion by executing a READ instruction
that asserts the CS and RD pins at the AD8401’s decoded address. The AD8401 BUSY output then goes low, forcing the
microprocessor’s READY (or WAIT) line into a WAIT state.
The analog input signal is captured by the T/H on the falling
edge of RD. When the conversion is complete (8 clocks later),
the BUSY line returns high, and then the µP completes its
READ of the new data now on the digital output port of the
AD8401. Note that while conversion is in progress the ADC
places the results from the last conversion (Old Data) on the
data bus. The Figure 7 timing diagram details the applicable
timing specification requirements.

Figure 6. Mode 1, ADC Interface Timing
Mode 1 Interface
As shown in Figure 6, the falling edge of the ST pulse initiates a
conversion and puts the T/H amplifier into the hold mode. The
BUSY signal goes low during the whole A/D conversion time
and returns high signaling end of conversion. The INT line can
be used to interrupt the microprocessor. When the microprocessor performs a READ to access the AD8401 data, the rising
edges of CS or RD will reset the INT output to high after the t15
timing specification. INT can also be used to externally trigger a
pulse that activates the CS and RD and places the new data into
a buffer or First In First Out FIFO memory. The microprocessor can then load a series of readings from this buffer memory at
a convenient time. Care must be taken not to have the ST input
high when RD is brought low; otherwise, the AD8401 will not
operate properly. Also triggering the ST line a second time before conversion is complete will cause erroneous readings.

Table II shows the truth table for DAC operation. The internal
8-bit DAC register contents are loaded from the data bus when
both WR and CS are asserted. The DAC register determines the
D/A converter analog-output voltage. The WR input is a positive edge triggered input that loads the bus data into the DAC
register subject to the data setup and data hold timing requirements. When CS and WR are low, the DAC register contents
will not change with changing data bus values. Figure 8 provides
the detail timing diagram for write cycle operation.

An active low pulse, at any time, on the RESET pin asynchronously forces all DAC register bits to zero. The DAC output
voltage becomes zero volts and stays at that value until a new

Output VOUT
The nominal output voltages listed in the Code Table are subject to the static performance specifications. The INL, ZeroScale and Full-Scale errors describe the total specified variation
that will be encountered from part to part. One LSB of error for
the 2.5 V FS range is 9.766 millivolts (= 2.50/256).
Although separate AGNDs exist for both the DAC and ADC to
minimize crosstalk, writing data to the DAC while the ADC is
performing a conversion may result in an incorrect conversion
from the ADC due to signal interaction between the DAC and
ADC. Therefore, to ensure correct operation of the ADC, the
DAC register should not be updated while the ADC is converting.
The AD8401 is configured for an input range of +3.0 volts Full
Scale. The nominal transfer characteristic for this range is plotted in Figure 23. The output coding is natural binary with one
LSB equal to 11.72 millivolts. Note that the first code transition
between 0 LSB and 1 LSB occurs at 5.8 mV, one half of the
11.72 mV LSB step size. The last code transition occurs at Full
Scale minus 1.5 LSBs, which is a 2.982 V input.
The AD8401 is easily interfaced to most microprocessors by using either address bits or address decode to select the appropriate multiplexer channel. Figure 24 shows how easily the AD8401
interfaces to the AD899. No additional hardware is required.
