GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7482 is a 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive
approximation ADC. The part features a parallel interface with
throughput rates up to 3 MSPS. The part contains a low noise,
wide bandwidth track-and-hold that can handle input frequencies
in excess of 40 MHz.
The conversion process is a proprietary algorithmic successive
approximation technique that results in no pipeline delays. The
input signal is sampled, and a conversion is initiated on the falling
edge of the CONVST signal. The conversion process is controlled
via an internally trimmed oscillator. Interfacing is via standard
parallel signal lines, making the part directly compatible with
microcontrollers and DSPs.
The AD7482 provides excellent ac and dc performance specifications. Factory trimming ensures high dc accuracy, resulting in
very low INL, offset, and gain errors.
The part uses advanced design techniques to achieve very low
power dissipation at high throughput rates. Power consumption
in the normal mode of operation is 90 mW. There are two power
saving modes: a nap mode, which keeps the reference circuitry
alive for a quick power-up while consuming 2.5 mW, and a
standby mode that reduces power consumption to a mere 10 μW.
The AD7482 features an on-board 2.5 V reference but can also
accommodate an externally provided 2.5 V reference source.
The nominal analog input range is 0 V to 2.5 V, but an offset
shift capability allows this nominal range to be offset by ±200 mV.
This allows the user considerable flexibility in setting the bottom
end reference point of the signal range, a useful feature when
using single-supply op amps.
The AD7482 also provides an 8% overrange capability via a
13th bit. Therefore, if the analog input range strays outside the
nominal by up to 8%, the user can still accurately resolve the
signal by using the 13th bit.
The AD7482 is powered by a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply. The part
also provides a VDRIVE pin that allows the user to set the voltage
levels for the digital interface lines. The range for this VDRIVE pin
is 2.7 V to 5.25 V. The part is housed in a 48-lead LQFP package
and is specified over a −40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Analog Input. Single ended analog input channel.
Reference Output. REFOUT connects to the output of the internal 2.5 V reference buffer. A 470 nF capacitor
must be placed between this pin and AGND.
Reference Input. A 470 nF capacitor must be placed between this pin and AGND. When using an external
voltage reference source, the reference voltage should be applied to this pin.
Reference Decoupling Pin. When using the internal reference, a 1 nF capacitor must be connected from this
pin to AGND. When using an external reference source, this pin should be connected directly to AGND.
Standby Logic Input. When this pin is logic high, the device is placed in standby mode. See the Power Saving
section for further details.
Nap Logic Input. When this pin is logic high, the device is placed in a very low power mode. See the Power
Saving section for further details.
Chip Select Logic Input. This pin is used in conjunction with RD to access the conversion result. The data bus
is brought out of three-state and the current contents of the output register driven onto the data lines
following the falling edge of both CS and RD. CS is also used in conjunction with WRITE to perform a write to
the offset register. CS can be hardwired permanently low.
Read Logic Input. Used in conjunction with CS to access the conversion result.
Write Logic Input. Used in conjunction with CS to write data to the offset register. When the desired offset
word has been placed on the data bus, the WRITE line should be pulsed high. It is the falling edge of this
pulse that latches the word into the offset register.
Busy Logic Output. This pin indicates the status of the conversion process. The BUSY signal goes low after the
falling edge of CONVST and stays low for the duration of the conversion. In Parallel Mode 1, the BUSY signal
returns high when the conversion result has been latched into the output register. In Parallel Mode 2, the
BUSY signal returns high as soon as the conversion has been completed, but the conversion result does not
get latched into the output register until the falling edge of the next CONVST pulse.
No Connect. These pins should be pulled to ground via 100 kΩ resistors.
Data I/O Bits. D11 is MSB. These are three-state pins that are controlled by CS, RD, and WRITE. The operating
voltage level for these pins is determined by the VDRIVE input.

Data Output Bit for Overranging. If the overrange feature is not used, this pin should be pulled to DGND via a
100 kΩ resistor.
Convert Start Logic Input. A conversion is initiated on the falling edge of the CONVST signal. The input trackand-hold amplifier goes from track mode to hold mode, and the conversion process commences.
Reset Logic Input. An active low reset pulse must be applied to this pin after power-up to ensure correct
operation. A falling edge on this pin resets the internal state machine and terminates a conversion that
may be in progress. The contents of the offset register are also cleared on this edge. Holding this pin low
keeps the part in a reset state.
Operating Mode Logic Input. See Table 8 for details.
Operating Mode Logic Input. See Table 8 for details.
Logic Input. A logic high on this pin enables output clipping. In this mode, any input voltage that is greater
than positive full scale or less than negative full scale is clipped to all 1s or all 0s, respectively. Further details
are given in the Offset/Overrange section.

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity
The integral nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from a
straight line passing through the endpoints of the ADC transfer
function. The endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale, a
point 1/2 LSB below the first code transition, and full scale, a
point 1/2 LSB above the last code transition.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the harmonics to the
fundamental. It is defined as
Differential Nonlinearity
The differential nonlinearity is the difference between the
measured and ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent
codes in the ADC.
where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3,
V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the
sixth harmonics.
Offset Error
The offset error is the deviation of the first code transition
(00...000) to (00...001) from the ideal, that is, AGND + 0.5 LSB.
Gain Error
The gain error is the deviation of the last code transition
(111...110) to (111...111) from the ideal, that is, VREF − 1.5 LSB
after the offset error is adjusted out.
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
Track-and-hold acquisition time is the time required for the
output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach its final value,
within ±1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion (the point at which
the track-and-hold returns to track mode).
Signal-to-Noise + Distortion (SINAD) Ratio
The SINAD ratio is the measured ratio of signal-to-noise +
distortion at the output of the ADC. The signal is the rms
amplitude of the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding
dc. The ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels
in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the
quantization noise. The theoretical SINAD ratio for an ideal N-bit
converter with a sine wave input is given by:
Signal-to-Noise + Distortion = (6.02N +1.76)dB
Therefore, this is 74 dB for a 12-bit converter.
THD(dB) = 20 log
V2 2 + V3 2 + V4 2 + V5 2 + V6 2
V1
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
The peak harmonic or spurious noise is the ratio of the rms
value of the next largest component in the ADC output spectrum
(up to fS/2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental.
The value of this specification is usually determined by the largest
harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs where the harmonics
are buried in the noise floor, it is a noise peak.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion products
at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where m and n = 0,
1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for
which neither m nor n is equal to zero. For example, the second
order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), wh
ereas the third order
terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa − 2fb).
The AD7482 is tested using the CCIF standard, where two input
frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth are used. In
this case, the second order terms are usually distanced in frequency
from the original sine waves, whereas the third order terms are
usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies. As a result,
the second order and third order terms are specified separately.
The calculation of the intermodulation distortion is as per the
THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms sum of the
individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of the sum
of the fundamentals expressed in dBs.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
CONVERTER OPERATION
At the end of conversion, the track-and-hold returns to track
mode and the acquisition time begins. The track-and-hold
acquisition time is 40 ns. Figure 13 shows the ADC during its
acquisition phase. SW2 is closed and SW1 is in Position A. The
comparator is held in a balanced condition and the sampling
capacitor acquires the signal on VIN.
The AD7482 is a 12-bit algorithmic successive approximation
ADC based around a capacitive DAC. It provides the user with
track-and-hold, reference, an ADC, and versatile interface logic
functions on a single chip. The normal analog input signal range
that the AD7482 can convert is 0 V to 2.5 V. By using the offset
and overrange features on the ADC, the AD7482 can convert
analog input signals from −200 mV to +2.7 V while operating
from a single 5 V supply. The part requires a 2.5 V reference,
which can be provided from the internal reference or an external
reference source. Figure 11 shows a simplified schematic of the
ADC. The control logic, SAR, and capacitive DAC are used to
add and subtract fixed amounts of charge from the sampling
capacitor to bring the comparator back to a balanced condition.

Conversion is initiated on the AD7482 by pulsing the CONVST
input. On the falling edge of CONVST, the track-and-hold goes
from track mode to hold mode and the conversion sequence is
started. Conversion time for the part is 300 ns. Figure 12 shows
the ADC during conversion. When conversion starts, SW2
opens and SW1 moves to Position B, causing the comparator to
become unbalanced. The ADC then runs through its successiveapproximation routine and brings the comparator back into a
balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the
conversion result is available in the SAR register.

Figure 14 shows the analog input circuit used to obtain the data
for the fast fourier transfer (FFT) plot shown in Figure 3. The
circuit uses an AD829 op amp as the input buffer. A bipolar analog
signal is applied and biased up with a stable, low noise dc voltage
connected to the labeled terminal, as shown in Figure 11. A 220 pF
compensation capacitor is connected between Pin 5 and the AD829
and the analog ground plane. The AD829 is supplied with +12 V
and −12 V supplies. The supply pins are decoupled as close to
the device as possible with both a 0.1 µF and a 10 µF capacitor
connected to each pin. In each case, 0.1 µF capacitor should be the
closer of the two caps to the device. More information on the
AD829 is available at www.analog.com.

AD7482
The output coding of the AD7482 is straight binary. The designed
code transitions occur midway between the successive integer
LSB values, that is, 1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSB, and so on. The LSB size is
VREF/4096. The nominal transfer characteristic for the AD7482 is
shown in Figure 16. This transfer characteristic may be shifted
as detailed in the Offset/Overrange section.
Therefore, the power dissipated during each cycle is
27 mW + 42 mW = 69 mW

normal mode.

ANALOG INPUT
In nap mode, almost all the internal circuitry is powered down.
In this mode, the power dissipation is reduced to 2.5 mW. When
using an external reference, there must be a minimum of 300 ns
from exiting nap mode to initiating a conversion. This is necessary
to allow the internal circuitry to settle after power-up and for
the track-and-hold to properly acquire the analog input signal.
The internal reference cannot be used in conjunction with the
nap mode.
If the AD7482 is put into nap mode after each conversion, the
average power dissipation is reduced, but the throughput rate is
limited by the power-up time. Using the AD7482 with a throughput rate of 500 kSPS while placing the part in nap mode after
each conversion results in average power dissipation as follows:

For higher input bandwidth applications, the AD8021 op amp
(also available as a dual AD8022 op amp) is the recommended
choice to drive the AD7482. Figure 15 shows the analog input
circuit used to obtain the data for the FFT plot shown in Figure 4. A
bipolar analog signal is applied to the terminal and biased up with a
stable, low noise dc voltage connected, as shown in Figure 12. A
10 pF compensation capacitor is connected between Pin 5 of the
AD8021 and the negative supply. The AD8021 is supplied with
+12 V and −12 V supplies. The supply pins are decoupled as close
to the device as possible, with both a 0.1 μF and
a 10 μF capacitor
connected to each pin. In each case, the 0.1 μF capacitor should
be the closer of the two caps to the device. The AD8021 logic
reference pin is tied to analog ground and the DISABLE Pin is
tied to the positive supply, as shown in Figure 12. Detailed
information on the AD8021 is available at www.analog.com.

POWER SAVING
The AD7482 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very
low power dissipation at high throughput rates. In addition, the
AD7482 features two power saving modes, nap and standby. These
modes are selected by bringing either the NAP pin or STBY pin
to a logic high, respectively.
While in nap mode for the rest of the cycle, the AD7482
dissipates only 1.75 mW of power.
(1400 ns/2 μs) × (5 V × 0.5 mA) = 1.75 mW
Therefore, the power dissipated during each cycle is
When operating the AD7482 in normal fully powered mode,
the current consumption is 18 mA during conversion and the
quiescent current is 12 mA. Operating at a throughput rate of
1 MSPS, the conversion time of 300 ns contributes 27 mW to
the overall power dissipation.

The AD7482 provides a ±8% overrange capability as well as a
programmable offset register. The overrange capability is achieved
by the use of a 13th bit (D12) and the CLIP input. If the CLIP input
is at logic high and the contents of the offset register are 0, then the
AD7482 operates as a normal 12-bit ADC. If the input voltage is
greater than the full-scale voltage, the data output from the ADC is
all 1s. Similarly, if the input voltage is lower than the zero-scale
voltage, the data output from the ADC is all 0s. In this case, D12
acts as an overrange indicator. It is set to 1 if the analog input
voltage is outside the nominal 0 V to 2.5 V range.
The default contents of the offset register are 0. If the offset register
contains any value other than 0, the contents of the register are
added to the SAR result at the end of conversion. This has the effect
of shifting the transfer function of the ADC as shown in Figure 21
and Figure 22. Note that with the CLIP input set to logic high, the
maximum and minimum codes that the AD7482 can output are
0xFFF and 0x000, respectively. Further details are given in Table 5
and Table 6.
Figure 21 shows the effect of writing a positive value to the
offset register. For example, if the contents of the offset register
contained the value 256, then the value of the analog input
voltage for which the ADC transitions from reading all 0s to

In standby mode, all the internal circuitry is powered down and the
power consumption of the AD7482 is reduced to 10 μW. The
power-up time necessary before a conversion can be initiated is
longer because more of the internal circuitry has been powered
down. In using the internal reference of the AD7482, the ADC
must be brought out of standby mode 500 ms before a conversion is
initiated. Initiating a conversion before the required power-up time
has elapsed results in incorrect conversion data. If an external

Values from −327 to +327 can be written to the offset register.
These values correspond to an offset of ±200 mV. A write to the
offset register is performed by writing a 13-bit word to the part
as detailed in the Parallel Interface section. The 10 LSBs of the
13-bit word contain the offset value, whereas the 3 MSBs must
be set to 0. Failure to write 0s to the 3 MSBs may result in the
incorrect operation of the device.
PARALLEL INTERFACE
The AD7482 features two parallel interfacing modes. These
modes are selected by the mode pins (see Table 8).

If the CLIP input is at logic low, the overrange indicator is disabled
and the AD7482 is able to achieve output codes outside the
nominal 12-bit range of 0 to 4095 (see Figure 6). D12 acts as an
indicator that the ADC is outside this nominal range. If the ADC is
outside this nominal range on the negative side, the ADC outputs a
twos complement code and if the ADC is outside the range on the
positive side, the ADC outputs a straight binary code as normal.
If D12 is Logic 1, D11 indicates if the ADC is out of range on
the positive or negative side. If D11 is Logic 1, the ADC is outside
the nominal range on the negative side and the output code is a
13-bit twos complement number (a negative number). If D11 is

In Parallel Mode 1, the data in the output register is updated on
the rising edge of BUSY at the end of a conversion and is available
for reading almost immediately afterward. Using this mode,
throughput rates of up to 2.5 MSPS can be achieved. This mode
is to be used if the conversion data is required immediately after
the conversion is completed. An example where this may be of use
is if the AD7482 is operating at much lower throughput rates in
conjunction with the nap mode (for power saving reasons), and
the input signal is being compared with set limits within the DSP or
other controller. If the limits are exceeded, the ADC is brought
immediately into full power operation and commences sampling at
full speed. Figure 31 shows a timing diagram for the AD7482
operating in Parallel Mode 1 with both CS and RD tied low.
In Parallel Mode 2, the data in the output register is not updated
until the next falling edge of CONVST. This mode can be used
where a single sample delay is not vital to the system operation,
and conversion speeds of greater than 2.5 MSPS are desired. For
example, this may occur in a system where a large amount of
samples are taken at high speed before an FFT is performed for
frequency analysis of the input signal. Figure 32 shows a timing
diagram for the AD7482 operating in Parallel Mode 2 with both
CS and RD tied low.
Rev. B | Page 15 of 20
AD7482
Data must not be read from the AD7482 while a conversion is
taking place. For this reason, if operating the AD7482 at throughput speeds greater than 2.5 MSPS, it is necessary to tie both the
CS pin and RD pins on the AD7482 low and use a buffer on the
data lines. This situation may also arise in the case where a read
operation cannot be completed in the time after the end of one
conversion and the start of the quiet period before the next
conversion.
The maximum slew rate at the input of the ADC must be limited to
500 V/µs while BUSY is low to avoid corrupting the ongoing
conversion. In any multiplexed application where the channel is
switched during conversion, this is to happen as soon as possible
after the BUSY falling edge.
Reading Data from the AD7482
Data is read from the part via a 13-bit parallel data bus with the
standard CS signal and RD signal. The CS signal and RD signal are
internally gated to enable the conversion result onto the data bus.
The data lines D0 to D12 leave their high impedance state when
both the CS and RD are logic low. Therefore, CS may be permanently tied logic low if required, and the RD signal may be used
to access the conversion result. Figure 29 shows a timing specification called tQUIET. This is the amount of time that must be left
after any data bus activity before the next conversion is initiated.
Writing to the AD7482
The AD7482 features a user accessible offset register. This allows
the bottom of the transfer function to be shifted by ±200 mV. This
feature is explained in more detail in the Offset/Overrange section.
To write to the offset register, a 13-bit word is written to the
AD7482 with the 10 LSBs containing the offset value in twos
complement format. The 3 MSBs must be set to 0. The offset
value must be within the range −327 to +327, corresponding to
an offset from −200 mV to +200 mV. The value written to the
offset register is stored and used until power is removed from
the device, or the device is reset. The value stored can be updated at
any time between conversions by another write to the device.
Table 9 shows examples of offset register values and their effective
offset voltage. Figure 30 shows a timing diagram for writing to
the AD7482.
Driving the CONVST Pin
To achieve the specified performance from the AD7482, the
CONVST pin must be driven from a low jitter source. Because
the falling edge on the CONVST pin determines the sampling
instant, any jitter that may exist on this edge appears as noise
when the analog input signal contains high frequency components.
The relationship between the analog input frequency (fIN), timing
jitter (tj), and resulting SNR is given by
SNRJITTER (dB ) = 10 log
×t j
)
2
Typical Connection
Figure 23 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7482
operating in Parallel Mode 1. Conversion is initiated by a falling
edge on CONVST. When CONVST goes low, the BUSY signal
goes low, and at the end of conversion, the rising edge of BUSY
is used to activate an interrupt service routine. The CS and RD
lines are then activated to read the 12 data bits (13 bits if using
the overrange feature).
In Figure 23, the VDRIVE pin is tied to DVDD, which results in
logic output levels being either 0 V or DVDD. The voltage applied to
VDRIVE controls the voltage value of the output logic signals. For
example, if DVDD is supplied by a 5 V supply and VDRIVE is supplied
by a 3 V supply, the logic output levels are either 0 V or 3 V. This
feature allows the AD7482 to interface to 3 V devices, while still
enabling the ADC to process signals at a 5 V supply.

For example, if the desired SNR due to jitter was 100 dB with a
maximum full-scale analog input frequency of 1.5 MHz, ignoring
all other noise sources, the result is an allowable jitter on the
CONVST falling edge of 1.06 ps. For a 12-bit converter (ideal
SNR = 74 dB), the allowable jitter is greater than 1.06 ps, but
due consideration must be given to the design of the CONVST
circuitry to achieve 12-bit performance with large analog input
frequencies.

BOARD LAYOUT AND GROUNDING
For optimum performance from the AD7482, it is recommended
that a PCB with a minimum of three layers be used. One of
these layers, preferably the middle layer, should be as complete a
ground plane as possible to give the best shielding. The board
should be designed in such a way that the analog and digital
circuitry is separated and confined to certain areas of the board.
This practice, along with not running digital and analog lines close
together, helps to avoid coupling digital noise onto analog lines.
Figure 24 to Figure 28 show a sample layout of the board area
immediately surrounding the AD7482. Pin 1 is the bottom left
corner of the device. The black area in each figure indicates the
ground plane present on the middle layer Figure 24 shows the
top layer where the AD7482 is mounted with vias to the bottom
routing layer highlighted. Figure 25 shows the bottom layer
silkscreen where the decoupling components are soldered
directly beneath the device. Figure 26 shows the top and bottom
routing layers overlaid Figure 27 shows the bottom layer where
the power routing is with the same vias highlighted. Figure 28
shows the silkscreen overlaid on the solder pads for the decoupling
components, which are C1 to C6: 100 nF, C7 to C8: 470 nF, C9:
1 nF, and L1 to L4: Meggit-Sigma Chip Ferrite Beads
(BMB2A0600RS2).
02638-024
02638-025
The power supply lines to the AD7482 should be approximately
3 mm wide to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects
of glitches on the power supply lines. It is vital that good decoupling
also be present. A combination of ferrites and decoupling capacitors should be used as shown in Figure 23. The decoupling
capacitors are to be as close to the supply pins as possible. This
is made easier by the use of multilayer boards. The signal traces
from the AD7482 pins can be run on the top layer, while the
decoupling capacitors and ferrites can be mounted on the bottom
layer where the power traces exist. The ground plane between
the top and bottom planes provides excellent shielding.
