GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7273/AD7274 are 10-/12-bit, high speed, low power,
successive approximation ADCs, respectively. The parts operate
from a single 2.35 V to 3.6 V power supply and feature
throughput rates of up to 3 MSPS. Each part contains a low
noise, wide bandwidth track-and-hold amplifier that can handle
input frequencies in excess of 55 MHz.
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled
using CS and the serial clock, allowing the devices to interface
with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on
the falling edge of CS, and the conversion is also initiated at this
point. The conversion rate is determined by the SCLK. There
are no pipeline delays associated with these parts.
The AD7273/AD7274 use advanced design techniques to
achieve very low power dissipation at high throughput rates.
The reference for the parts is applied externally and can be in
the range of 1.4 V to VDD. This allows the widest dynamic input
range to the ADC.

Timing Example 2
TIMING EXAMPLES
The example in Figure 7 uses a 16 SCLK cycle, fSCLK = 48 MHz,
and the throughput is 2.97 MSPS. This produces a cycle time
of t2 + 12.5(1/fSCLK) + tACQ = 336 ns, where t2 = 6 ns min and
tACQ = 70 ns. Figure 7 shows that tACQ comprises 2.5(1/fSCLK) +
t8 + tQUIET, where t8 = 14 ns max. This satisfies the minimum
requirement of 4 ns for tQUIET.
th
For the AD7274, if CS is brought high during the 14 SCLK
rising edge after the two leading zeros and 12 bits of the
conversion are provided, the part can achieve the fastest
throughput rate, 3 MSPS. If CS is brought high during the 16th
SCLK rising edge after the two leading zeros, 12 bits of the
conversion, and two trailing zeros are provided, a throughput
rate of 2.97 MSPS is achievable. This is illustrated in the
following two timing examples.
Timing Example 1
In Figure 6, using a 14 SCLK cycle, fSCLK = 48 MHz, and
the throughput is 3 MSPS. This produces a cycle time of
t2 + 12.5(1/fSCLK) + tACQ = 333 ns, where t2 = 6 ns min and
tACQ = 67 ns. This satisfies the requirement of 60 ns for tACQ.
Figure 6 also shows that tACQ comprises 0.5(1/fSCLK) + t9 + tQUIET,
where t9 = 4.2 ns max. This allows a value of 52.8 ns for tQUIET,
satisfying the minimum requirement of 4 ns.

Description
Power Supply Input. The VDD range for the AD7273/AD7274 is from 2.35 V to 3.6 V.
Data Out. Logic output. The conversion result from the AD7273/AD7274 is provided on this output as a
serial data stream. The bits are clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. The data stream from
the AD7274 consists of two leading zeros followed by the 12 bits of conversion data and two trailing
zeros, provided MSB first. The data stream from the AD7273 consists of two leading zeros followed
by the 10 bits of conversion data and four trailing zeros, provided MSB first.
Chip Select. Active low logic input. This input provides the dual function of initiating conversion on
the AD7273/AD7274 and framing the serial data transfer.
Analog Ground. Ground reference point for all circuitry on the AD7273/AD7274. All analog signals
and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage.
Voltage Reference Input. This pin becomes the reference voltage input. An external reference should
be applied at this pin. The external reference input range is 1.4 V to VDD. A 10 μF capacitor should be
tied between this pin and AGND.

AD7273/AD7274
TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
The maximum deviation from a straight line passing through
the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. For the AD7273/
AD7274, the endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale at
0.5 LSB below the first code transition and full scale at 0.5 LSB
above the last code transition.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
The difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
Offset Error
The deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to (00 . . .
001) from the ideal, that is, AGND + 0.5 LSB.
Gain Error
The deviation of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to
(111 . . . 111) from the ideal, that is, VREF – 1.5 LSB, after
adjusting for the offset error.
Total Unadjusted Error (TUE)
A comprehensive specification that includes gain, linearity, and
offset errors.
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
The time required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier
to reach its final value, within ±0.5 LSB, after the end of the
conversion. See the Serial Interface section for more details.
Signal-to-Noise + Distortion Ratio (SINAD)
The measured ratio of signal to noise plus distortion at the
output of the ADC. The signal is the rms amplitude of the
fundamental, and noise is the rms sum of all nonfundamental
signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), including
harmonics but excluding dc. The ratio is dependent on the
number of quantization levels in the digitization process: the
more levels, the smaller the quantization noise. For an ideal N-bit
converter, the SINAD is
SINAD = 6.02 N + 1.76 dB
According to this equation, the SINAD is 74 dB for a 12-bit
converter and 62 dB for a 10-bit converter. However, various
error sources in the ADC, including integral and differential
nonlinearities and internal ac noise sources, cause the measured
SINAD to be less than its theoretical value.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamental. It is
defined as:
THD (dB ) = 20 log
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.
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise (SFDR)
The ratio of the rms value of the next largest component in the
ADC output spectrum (up to fS/2, excluding dc) to the rms value
of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum; however,
for ADCs with harmonics buried in the noise floor, it is determined by a noise peak.
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD)
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, …. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for
which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For example, the secondorder terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), and the third-order
terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa − 2fb).
The AD7273/AD7274 are tested using the CCIF standard in
which two input frequencies are used (see fa and fb in the
Specifications section). In this case, the second-order terms are
usually distanced in frequency from the original sine waves, and
the third-order terms are usually at a frequency close to the input
frequencies. As a result, the second- 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 decibels.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
The ratio of the power in the ADC output at full-scale
frequency, f, to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave applied to
the ADC VDD supply of frequency fS.
PSRR (dB ) = 10 log (Pf Pf S )
where Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output; PfS is
the power at frequency fS coupled onto the ADC VDD supply.
Aperture Delay
The measured interval between the leading edge of the sampling
clock and the point at which the ADC actually takes the sample.
Aperture Jitter
The sample-to-sample variation in the effective point in time at
which the sample is taken.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7273/AD7274 provide the user with an on-chip trackand-hold ADC and a serial interface housed in an 8-lead TSOT
or an 8-lead MSOP package, which offers the user considerable
space-saving advantages over alternative solutions. The serial
clock input accesses data from the part and provides the clock
source for the successive approximation ADC. The analog input
range is 0 to VREF. An external reference in the range of 1.4 V to
VDD is required by the ADC.
When the ADC starts a conversion, SW2 opens and SW1 moves
to Position B, causing the comparator to become unbalanced
(see Figure 25). The control logic and the charge redistribution
DAC are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge from
the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator back into a
balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the
conversion is complete. The control logic generates the ADC
output code. Figure 26 shows the ADC transfer function.

show simplified schematics of the ADC. Figure 24 shows the
ADC during its acquisition phase, where SW2 is closed, SW1 is
in Position A, the comparator is held in a balanced condition,
and the sampling capacitor acquires the signal on VIN.
The output coding of the AD7273/AD7274 is straight binary.
The designed code transitions occur midway between
successive integer LSB values, such as 0.5 LSB and 1.5 LSB. The
LSB size is VREF/4,096 for the AD7274 and VREF/1,024 for the

on resistance of a switch. This resistor is typically about 75 Ω.
Capacitor C2 is the ADC sampling capacitor and has a capacitance
of 32 pF typically. For ac applications, removing high frequency
components from the analog input signal is recommended by
using a band-pass filter on the relevant analog input pin. In
applications where harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise
ratio are critical, the analog input should be driven from a low
impedance source. Large source impedances significantly affect
the ac performance of the ADCs. This may necessitate the use
of an input buffer amplifier. The AD8021 op amp is compatible
with this device; however, the choice of the op amp is a function
of the particular application.

This reference can be in the range of 1.4 V to VDD. A precision

When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input, the source
impedance should be limited to a low value. The maximum source
impedance depends on the amount of THD that can be tolerated.
The THD increases as the source impedance increases and performance degrades. Figure 14 shows a graph of the THD vs. the

ANALOG INPUT
Figure 28 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input
structure of the AD7273/AD7274. The two diodes, D1 and D2,
provide ESD protection for the analog inputs. Care must be
taken to ensure that the analog input signal never exceeds the
supply rails by more than 300 mV. Signals exceeding this value
cause these diodes to become forward biased and to start
conducting current into the substrate. These diodes can
conduct a maximum current of 10 mA without causing
irreversible damage to the part. Capacitor C1 in Figure 28 is
typically about 4 pF and can primarily be attributed to pin
capacitance. Resistor R1 is a lumped component made up of the
DIGITAL INPUTS
The digital inputs applied to the AD7273/AD7274 are not
limited by the maximum ratings that limit the analog inputs.
Instead, the digital inputs can be applied at up to 6 V and are
not restricted by the VDD + 0.3 V limit of the analog inputs. For
example, if the AD7273/AD7274 were operated with a VDD of
3 V, then 5 V logic levels could be used on the digital inputs.
However, it is important to note that the data output on SDATA
still has 3 V logic levels when VDD = 3 V. Another advantage of
SCLK and CS not being restricted by the VDD + 0.3 V limit is
that power supply sequencing issues are avoided. For example,
unlike with the analog inputs, with the digital inputs, if CS or
SCLK are applied before VDD, there is no risk of latch-up.

AD7273/AD7274
MODES OF OPERATION
The mode of operation of the AD7273/AD7274 is selected by
controlling the logic state of the CS signal during a conversion.
There are three possible modes of operation: normal mode,
partial power-down mode, and full power-down mode. The
point at which CS is pulled high after the conversion is initiated
determines which power-down mode, if any, the device enters.
Similarly, if the device is already in power-down mode, CS can
control whether the device returns to normal operation or
remains in power-down mode. These modes of operation are
designed to provide flexible power management options, which
can be chosen to optimize the power dissipation/throughput
rate ratio for different application requirements.
NORMAL MODE
This mode is intended for fastest throughput rate performance
because the AD7273/AD7274 remain fully powered at all times,
eliminating worry about power-up times. Figure 29 shows the
general diagram of the operation of the AD7273/AD7274 in
this mode.
The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS as described
in the Serial Interface section. To ensure that the part remains
fully powered up at all times, CS must remain low until at least
10 SCLK falling edges elapse after the falling edge of CS. If CS is
brought high any time after the 10th SCLK falling, but before the
16th SCLK falling edge, the part remains powered up, but the
conversion is terminated, and SDATA goes back into three-state.
For the AD7274, a minimum of 14 serial clock cycles are
required to complete the conversion and access the complete
conversion result. For the AD7273, a minimum of 12 serial
clock cycles are required to complete the conversion and access
the complete conversion result.
CS can idle high until the next conversion or low until CS
returns high before the next conversion (effectively idling CS
low). Once a data transfer is complete (SDATA has returned to
three-state), another conversion can be initiated after the quiet
time, tQUIET, has elapsed by bringing CS low again.
PARTIAL POWER-DOWN MODE
This mode is intended for use in applications where slower
throughput rates are required. An example of this is when either
the ADC is powered down between each conversion or a series
of conversions is performed at a high throughput rate and then
the ADC is powered down for a relatively long duration between
these bursts of several conversions.
When the AD7273/AD7274 are in partial power-down mode,
all analog circuitry is powered down except the bias generation
circuit.
To enter partial power-down mode, interrupt the conversion
process by bringing CS high between the second and 10th falling
edges of SCLK, as shown in Figure 30. Once CS is brought high
in this window of SCLKs, the part enters partial power-down
mode, the conversion that was initiated by the falling edge of
CS is terminated, and SDATA goes back into three-state. If CS
is brought high before the second SCLK falling edge, the part
remains in normal mode and does not power down. This prevents
accidental power-down due to glitches on the CS line.
To exit this mode of operation and power up the AD7274/
AD7273, perform a dummy conversion. On the falling edge of
CS, the device begins to power up and continues to power up as
long as CS is held low until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK.
The device is fully powered up once 16 SCLKs elapse; valid data
results from the next conversion, as shown in Figure 31. If CS is
brought high before the 10th falling edge of SCLK, the AD7274/
AD7273 goes into full power-down mode. Therefore, although
the device may begin to power up on the falling edge of CS, it
powers down on the rising edge of CS as long as this occurs
before the 10th SCLK falling edge.
If the AD7273/AD7274 is already in partial power-down mode
and CS is brought high before the 10th falling edges of SCLK, the
device enters full power-down mode. For more information on
the power-up times associated with partial power-down mode
in various configurations, see the Power-Up Times section.
FULL POWER-DOWN MODE
This mode is intended for use in applications where throughput
rates slower than those in the partial power-down mode are
required, because power-up from a full power-down takes
substantially longer than that from a partial power-down. This
mode is suited to applications where a series of conversions
performed at a relatively high throughput rate are followed by
a long period of inactivity and thus power-down.
When the AD7273/AD7274 are in full power-down mode, all
analog circuitry is powered down. To enter full power-down
mode put the device into partial power-down mode by bringing
CS high between the second and 10th falling edges of SCLK. In
the next conversion cycle, interrupt the conversion process in
the way shown in Figure 32 by bringing CS high before the 10th
SCLK falling edge. Once CS is brought high in this window of
SCLKs, the part powers down completely. Note that it is not
necessary to complete 16 SCLKs once CS is brought high to enter
either of the power-down modes. Glitch protection is not
available when entering full power-down mode.
To exit full power-down mode and power up the AD7273/
AD7274 again, perform a dummy conversion, similar to when
powering up from partial power-down mode. On the falling
Rev. 0 | Page 17 of 28
AD7273/AD7274
edge of CS, the device begins to power up and continues to
power up until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK as long as
CS is held low. The power-up time required must elapse before
a conversion can be initiated, as shown in Figure 33. See the
Power-Up Times section for the power-up times associated with
the AD7273/AD7274.
POWER-UP TIMES
The AD7273/AD7274 has two power-down modes, partial
power-down and full power-down, which are described in
detail in the Modes of Operation section. This section deals
with the power-up time required when coming out of either of
these modes.
To power up from partial power-down mode, one cycle is
required. Therefore, with a SCLK frequency of up to 48 MHz,
one dummy cycle is sufficient to allow the device to power up
from partial power-down mode. Once the dummy cycle is
complete, the ADC is fully powered up and the input signal is
acquired properly. The quiet time, tQUIET, must be allowed from
the point where the bus goes back into three-state after the
dummy conversion to the next falling edge of CS.
mode, the track-and-hold, which is in hold mode while the part
is powered down, returns to track mode after the first SCLK
edge is received after the falling edge of CS. This is shown as
Point A in Figure 31.
When power supplies are first applied to the AD7273/AD7274,
the ADC can power up in either of the power-down modes or
in normal mode. Because of this, it is best to allow a dummy
cycle to elapse to ensure that the part is fully powered up before
attempting a valid conversion. Likewise, if the part is to be kept
in partial power-down mode immediately after the supplies are
applied, two dummy cycles must be initiated. The first dummy
cycle must hold CS low until after the 10th SCLK falling edge
(see Figure 29). In the second cycle, CS must be brought high
between the second and 10th SCLK falling edges (see Figure 30).
Alternatively, if the part is to be placed into full power-down
mode after the supplies are applied, three dummy cycles must
be initiated. The first dummy cycle must hold CS low until after
the 10th SCLK falling edge (see Figure 29); the second and third
dummy cycles place the part into full power-down mode (see
Figure 32). See also the Modes of Operation section.
To power up from full power-down, approximately 1 μs should
be allowed from the falling edge of CS, shown in Figure 33 as
tPOWER-UP. Note that during power-up from partial power-down

Figure 35 shows that as the throughput rate is reduced, the
device remains in its power-down state longer and the average
power consumption over time drops accordingly. For example,
if the AD7273/AD7274 are operated in continuous sampling
mode with a throughput rate of 200 kSPS and a SCLK of 48 MHz
(VDD = 3 V) and the devices are placed into power-down mode
between conversions, the power consumption is calculated as
follows. The power dissipation during normal operation is
11.6 mW (VDD = 3 V). If the power-up time is one dummy
cycle, that is, 333 ns, and the remaining conversion time is
290 ns, the AD7273/AD7274 can be said to dissipate 11.6 mW
for 623 ns during each conversion cycle. If the throughput rate
is 200 kSPS, the cycle time is 5 μs and the average power dissipated
during each cycle is 623/5,000 × 9.6 mW = 1.42 mW. Figure 35
shows the power vs. throughput rate when using the partial
power-down mode between conversions at 3 V. The powerdown mode is intended for use with throughput rates of less
than 600 kSPS, because at higher sampling rates there is no
power saving achieved by using the power-down mode.

POWER (mW)
Figure 34 shows the power consumption of the device in
normal mode, in which the part is never powered down. By
using the power-down mode of the AD7273/AD7274 when not
performing a conversion, the average power consumption of the
ADC decreases as the throughput rate decreases.

AD7273/AD7274
SERIAL INTERFACE
Figure 36 through Figure 38 show the detailed timing diagrams
for serial interfacing to the AD7274 and AD7273, respectively.
The serial clock provides the conversion clock and controls the
transfer of information from the AD7273/AD7274 during
conversion.
If the user considers a 14-SCLK cycle serial interface for the
AD7273/AD7274, CS must be brought high after the 14th SCLK
falling edge. Then the last two trailing zeros are ignored, and
SDATA goes back into three-state. In this case, the 3 MSPS
throughput can be achieved by using a 48 MHz clock frequency.
The CS signal initiates the data transfer and conversion process.
The falling edge of CS puts the track-and-hold into hold mode
and takes the bus out of three-state. The analog input is sampled
and the conversion is initiated at this point.
CS going low clocks out the first leading zero to be read by the
microcontroller or DSP. The remaining data is then clocked out
by subsequent SCLK falling edges, beginning with the second
leading zero. Therefore, the first falling clock edge on the serial
clock provides the first leading zero and clocks out the second
leading zero. The final bit in the data transfer is valid on the 16th
falling edge, because it is clocked out on the previous (15th)
falling edge.
For the AD7274, the conversion requires completing 14 SCLK
cycles. Once 13 SCLK falling edges have elapsed, the track-andhold goes back into track mode on the next SCLK rising edge,
as shown in Figure 36 at Point B. If the rising edge of CS occurs
before 14 SCLKs have elapsed, the conversion is terminated and
the SDATA line goes back into three-state. If 16 SCLKs are
considered in the cycle, the last two bits are zeros and SDATA
returns to three-state on the 16th SCLK falling edge, as shown in
Figure 37.
For the AD7273, the conversion requires completing 12 SCLK
cycles. Once 11 SCLK falling edges elapse, the track-and-hold
goes back into track mode on the next SCLK rising edge, as
shown in Figure 38 at Point B. If the rising edge of CS occurs
before 12 SCLKs elapse, the conversion is terminated and the
SDATA line goes back into three-state. If 16 SCLKs are
considered in the cycle, the AD7273 clocks out four trailing
zeros for the last four bits and SDATA returns to three-state on
the 16th SCLK falling edge, as shown in Figure 38.
In applications with a slower SCLK, it is possible to read data on
each SCLK rising edge. In such cases, the first falling edge of
SCLK clocks out the second leading zero and can be read on the
first rising edge. However, the first leading zero clocked out
when CS goes low is missed if read within the first falling edge.
The 15th falling edge of SCLK clocks out the last bit and can be
read on the 15th rising SCLK edge.
If CS goes low just after one SCLK falling edge elapses, CS
clocks out the first leading zero and can be read on the SCLK
rising edge. The next SCLK falling edge clocks out the second
leading zero and can be read on the following rising edge.

AD7273/AD7274
APPLICATION HINTS
GROUNDING AND LAYOUT
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7273/AD7274
should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are
separated and confined to certain areas of the board. This design
facilitates using ground planes that can be easily separated.
To provide optimum shielding for ground planes, a minimum
etch technique is generally best. All AGND pins of the AD7273/
AD7274 should be sunk into the AGND plane. Digital and
analog ground planes should be joined in only one place. If the
AD7273/AD7274 are in a system where multiple devices require
an AGND-to-DGND connection, the connection should be
made at only one point, a star ground point, established as close
as possible to the ground pin on the AD7273/AD7274.
Avoid running digital lines under the device, because this
couples noise onto the die. However, the analog ground plane
should be allowed to run under the AD7273/AD7274 to avoid
noise coupling. The power supply lines to the AD7273/AD7274
should use as large a trace as possible to provide low impedance
paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line.
To avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board,
components with fast-switching signals, such as clocks, should
be shielded with digital ground, and they should never be run
near the analog inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog
signals. To reduce the effects of feedthrough within the board,
traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles
to each other. A microstrip technique is by far the best method,
but it is not always possible to use this approach with a doublesided board. In this technique, the component side of the board
is dedicated to ground planes, and signals are placed on the
solder side.
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should
be decoupled with 10 μF ceramic capacitors in parallel with
0.1 μF capacitors to AGND/DGND. To achieve the best results
from these decoupling components, they must be placed as close
as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. The
0.1 μF capacitors should have low effective series resistance
(ESR) and low effective series inductance (ESI), such as is typical
of common ceramic or surface-mount types of capacitors.
Capacitors with low ESR and low ESI provide a low impedance
path to ground at high frequencies, which allows them to
handle transient currents due to internal logic switching.
EVALUATING THE AD7273/AD7274 PERFORMANCE
The recommended layout for the AD7273/AD7274 is outlined
in the evaluation board documentation. The evaluation board
package includes a fully assembled and tested evaluation board,
documentation, and software for controlling the board from a
PC via the evaluation board controller. The evaluation board
controller can be used in conjunction with the AD7273/AD7274
evaluation board, as well as many other Analog Devices evaluation
boards ending in the CB designator, to demonstrate/evaluate the
ac and dc performance of the AD7273/AD7274.
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier transform) and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7273/AD7274.
The software and documentation are on a CD shipped with the
evaluation board.
