The LTC®2320-12 is a low noise, high speed octal 12‑bit
+ sign successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with
differential inputs and wide input common mode range.
Operating from a single 3.3V or 5V supply, the LTC2320‑12
has an 8VP-P differential input range, making it ideal for
applications which require a wide dynamic range with
high common mode rejection. The LTC2320-12 achieves
±0.25LSB INL typical, no missing codes at 12 bits and
77dB SNR.
nn
The LTC2320-12 has an onboard low drift (20ppm/°C max)
2.048V or 4.096V temperature-compensated reference.
The LTC2320-12 also has a high speed SPI-compatible
serial interface that supports CMOS or LVDS. The fast
1.5Msps per channel throughput with no latency makes
the LTC2320-12 ideally suited for a wide variety of high
speed applications. The LTC2320-12 dissipates only 20mW
per channel and offers nap and sleep modes to reduce the
power consumption to 26μW for further power savings
during inactive periods.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground.
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below ground, or above VDD or
OVDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input
currents up to 100mA below ground, or above VDD or OVDD, without latch-up.
Note 4: VDD = 5V, OVDD = 2.5V, REFOUT1,2,3,4 = 4.096V, fSMPL = 1.5MHz.
Note 5: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 6: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 7: Bipolar zero error is the offset voltage measured from –0.5LSB
when the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0 and 1111 1111
1111 1. Full-scale bipolar error is the worst-case of –FS or +FS untrimmed
6
ns
deviation from ideal first and last code transitions and includes the effect
of offset error.
Note 8: All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale ±4.096V input
with REF = 4.096V.
Note 9: When REFOUT1,2,3,4 is overdriven, the internal reference buffer
must be turned off by setting REFBUFEN = 0V.
Note 10: fSMPL = 1.5MHz, IREFOUT1,2,3,4 varies proportionally with sample rate.
Note 11: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 12: Parameter tested and guaranteed at OVDD = 1.71V and OVDD = 2.5V.
Note 13: tSCK of 9.1ns allows a shift clock frequency up to 105MHz for
rising edge capture.
Note 14: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range.
Note 15: CNV is driven from a low jitter digital source, typically at OVDD
logic levels.

PIN FUNCTIONS
Pins that are the same for all digital I/O modes.
AIN6+, AIN6– (Pins 2, 1): Analog Differential Input Pins.
Full-scale range (AIN6+ – AIN6–) is ±REFOUT3 voltage.
These pins can be driven from VDD to GND.
GND (Pins 3, 7, 12, 18, 26, 32, 38, 46, 49): Ground.
These pins and exposed pad (Pin 53) must be tied directly
to a solid ground plane.
AIN5+, AIN5– (Pins 5, 4): Analog Differential Input Pins.
Full-scale range (AIN5+ – AIN5–) is ±REFOUT3 voltage.
These pins can be driven from VDD to GND.
REFOUT3 (Pin 6): Reference Buffer 3 Output. An onboard
buffer nominally outputs 4.096V to this pin. This pin is
referred to GND and should be decoupled closely to the
pin with a 10µF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic capacitor. The
internal buffer driving this pin may be disabled by grounding the REFBUFEN pin. If the buffer is disabled, an external
reference may drive this pin in the range of 1.25V to 5V.
REF (Pin 8): Common 4.096V reference output. Decouple
to GND with a 1μF low ESR ceramic capacitor. May be
overdriven with a single external reference to establish a
common reference for ADC cores 1 through 4.
REFOUT2 (Pin 9): Reference Buffer 2 Output. An onboard
buffer nominally outputs 4.096V to this pin. This pin is
referred to GND and should be decoupled closely to the
pin with a 10µF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic capacitor. The
internal buffer driving this pin may be disabled by grounding the REFBUFEN pin. If the buffer is disabled, an external
reference may drive this pin in the range of 1.25V to 5V.

GND with a 10µF ceramic capacitor and a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor close to the part. The VDD pins should be shorted
together and driven from the same supply.

edge of SCK (Double Data Rate, DDR). CLKOUT will be a
delayed version of SCK for both pin states.
CNV (Pin 24): Convert Input. This pin, when high, defines
the acquisition phase. When this pin is driven low, the
conversion phase is initiated and output data is clocked
out. This input must be driven at OVDD levels with a low
jitter pulse. This pin is unaffected by the CMOS/LVDS pin.
CMOS/LVDS (Pin 25): I/O Mode Select. Ground this pin
to enable CMOS mode, tie to OVDD to enable LVDS mode.
Float this pin to enable low power LVDS mode.
OVDD (Pins 31, 37): I/O Interface Digital Power. The range
of OVDD is 1.71V to 2.63V. This supply is nominally set
to the same supply as the host interface (CMOS: 1.8V or
2.5V, LVDS: 2.5V). Bypass OVDD to GND (Pins 32 and 38)
with 0.1µF capacitors.

LTC2320-12
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TRANSFER FUNCTION
The LTC2320-12 is a low noise, high speed 12-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with differential
inputs and a wide input common mode range. Operating
from a single 3.3V or 5V supply, the LTC2320-12 has a
4VP-P or 8VP-P differential input range, making it ideal for
applications which require a wide dynamic range. The
LTC2320-12 achieves ±0.25LSB INL typical, no missing
codes at 12 bits and 77dB SNR.
The LTC2320-12 digitizes the full-scale voltage of 2 •
REFOUT into 213 levels, resulting in an LSB size of 1mV
with REFBUF = 4.096V. The ideal transfer function is shown
in Figure 2. The output data is in 2’s complement format.
When driven by fully differential inputs, the transfer function spans 213 codes. When driven by pseudo-differential
inputs, the transfer function spans 212 codes.
The LTC2320-12 has an onboard reference buffer and low
drift (20ppm/°C max) 4.096V temperature-compensated
reference. The LTC2320-12 also has a high speed SPIcompatible serial interface that supports CMOS or LVDS.
The fast 1.5Msps per channel throughput with no latency
makes the LTC2320-12 ideally suited for a wide variety of
high speed applications. The LTC2320-12 dissipates only
20mW per channel. Nap and sleep modes are also provided
to reduce the power consumption of the LTC2320-12 during inactive periods for further power savings.

The LTC2320-12 operates in two phases. During the acquisition phase, the sample capacitor is connected to the
analog input pins AIN+ and AIN – to sample the differential
analog input voltage, as shown in Figure 3. A falling edge on
the CNV pin initiates a conversion. During the conversion
phase, the 12-bit CDAC is sequenced through a successive
approximation algorithm effectively comparing the sampled
input with binary-weighted fractions of the reference voltage (e.g., VREFOUT/2, VREFOUT/4 … VREFOUT/32768) using
a differential comparator. At the end of conversion, a CDAC
output approximates the sampled analog input. The ADC
control logic then prepares the 12-bit digital output code
for serial transfer.

LTC2320-12
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Analog Input
The differential inputs of the LTC2320-12 provide great
flexibility to convert a wide variety of analog signals with
no configuration required. The LTC2320-12 digitizes the
difference voltage between the AIN+ and AIN – pins while
supporting a wide common mode input range. The analog
input signals can have an arbitrary relationship to each
other, provided that they remain between VDD and GND.
The LTC2320-12 can also digitize more limited classes of
analog input signals such as pseudo-differential unipolar/
bipolar and fully differential with no configuration required.
The analog inputs of the LTC2320-12 can be modeled
by the equivalent circuit shown in Figure 3. The backto-back diodes at the inputs form clamps that provide
ESD protection. In the acquisition phase, 10pF (CIN)
from the sampling capacitor in series with approximately
15Ω (RON) from the on-resistance of the sampling switch
is connected to the input. Any unwanted signal that is
common to both inputs will be reduced by the common
mode rejection of the ADC sampler. The inputs of the
ADC core draw a small current spike while charging the
CIN capacitors during acquisition.
Single-Ended Signals
Single-ended signals can be directly digitized by the
LTC2320-12. These signals should be sensed pseudodifferentially for improved common mode rejection. By
connecting the reference signal (e.g., ground sense) of
the main analog signal to the other AIN pin, any noise or
disturbance common to the two signals will be rejected
VREF

+
–
0V
by the high CMRR of the ADC. The LTC2320-12 flexibility
handles both pseudo-differential unipolar and bipolar
signals, with no configuration required. The wide common
mode input range relaxes the accuracy requirements of
any signal conditioning circuits prior to the analog inputs.
Pseudo-Differential Bipolar Input Range
The pseudo-differential bipolar configuration represents
driving one of the analog inputs at a fixed voltage, typically
VREF /2, and applying a signal to the other AIN pin. In this
case the analog input swings symmetrically around the
fixed input yielding bipolar two’s complement output codes
with an ADC span of half of full-scale. This configuration
is illustrated in Figure 4, and the corresponding transfer
function in Figure 5. The fixed analog input pin need not
be set at VREF /2, but at some point within the VDD rails
allowing the alternate input to swing symmetrically around
this voltage. If the input signal (AIN+ – AIN –) swings beyond
±REFOUT1,2,3,4/2, valid codes will be generated by the
ADC and must be clamped by the user, if necessary.
Pseudo-Differential Unipolar Input Range
The pseudo-differential unipolar configuration represents
driving one of the analog inputs at ground and applying a
signal to the other AIN pin. In this case, the analog input
swings between ground and VREF yielding unipolar two’s
complement output codes with an ADC span of half of
full-scale. This configuration is illustrated in Figure 6, and
the corresponding transfer function in Figure 7. If the input
signal (AIN+ – AIN –) swings negative, valid codes will be

Single-Ended-to-Differential Conversion
While single-ended signals can be directly digitized as previously discussed, single-ended to differential conversion
circuits may also be used when higher dynamic range is
desired. By producing a differential signal at the inputs of
the LTC2320-12, the signal swing presented to the ADC is
maximized, thus increasing the achievable SNR.
The LT®1819 high speed dual operational amplifier is
recommended for performing single-ended-to-differential
conversions, as shown in Figure 8. In this case, the first
amplifier is configured as a unity-gain buffer and the
single-ended input signal directly drives the high impedance input of this amplifier.
VREF
To achieve the best distortion performance of the
LTC2320‑12, we recommend driving a fully-differential
signal through LT1819 amplifiers configured as two
unity-gain buffers, as shown in Figure 9. This circuit
achieves the full data sheet THD specification of –90dB at
input frequencies up to 500kHz. A fully-differential input
signal can span the maximum full-scale of the ADC, up to
±REFOUT1,2,3,4. The common mode input voltage can
span the entire supply range up to VDD, limited by the
input signal swing. The fully-differential configuration is
illustrated in Figure 10, with the corresponding transfer
function illustrated in Figure 11.

INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
A low impedance source can directly drive the high impedance inputs of the LTC2320-12 without gain error. A
high impedance source should be buffered to minimize
settling time during acquisition and to optimize the distortion performance of the ADC. Minimizing settling time
is important even for DC inputs, because the ADC inputs
draw a current spike when during acquisition.
For best performance, a buffer amplifier should be used to
drive the analog inputs of the LTC2320-12. The amplifier
provides low output impedance to minimize gain error
and allows for fast settling of the analog signal during
the acquisition phase. It also provides isolation between
the signal source and the ADC inputs, which draw a small
current spike during acquisition.
Input Filtering
The noise and distortion of the buffer amplifier and signal
source must be considered since they add to the ADC noise
and distortion. Noisy input signals should be filtered prior
to the buffer amplifier input with a low bandwidth filter to
minimize noise. The simple 1-pole RC lowpass filter shown
in Figure 12 is sufficient for many applications.
The sampling switch on-resistance (RON) and the sample
capacitor (CIN) form a second lowpass filter that limits
the input bandwidth to the ADC core to 110MHz. A buffer
amplifier with a low noise density must be selected to
minimize the degradation of the SNR over this bandwidth.

Figure 12. Input Signal Chain
High quality capacitors and resistors should be used in the
RC filters since these components can add distortion. NPO
and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent
linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can generate
distortion from self heating and from damage that may
occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount resistors
are much less susceptible to both problems.
ADC REFERENCE
Internal Reference
The LTC2320-12 has an on-chip, low noise, low
drift (20ppm/°C max), temperature compensated bandgap reference. It is internally buffered and is available
at REF (Pin 8). The reference buffer gains the internal
reference voltage to 4.096V for supply voltages VDD = 5V
and to 2.048V for VDD = 3.3V. The REF pin also drives
the four internal reference buffers with a current limited
output (250μA) so it may be easily overdriven with an
external reference in the range of 1.25V to 5V. Bypass
REF to GND with a 1μF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic capacitor
to compensate the reference buffer and minimize noise.
The 1μF capacitor should be as close as possible to the
LTC2320-12 package to minimize wiring inductance. The
voltage on the REF pin must be externally buffered if used
for external circuitry.
External Reference
The internal REFOUT1,2,3,4 buffers can also be overdriven from 1.25V to 5V with an external reference at
REFOUT1,2,3,4 as shown in Figure 13 (c). To do so,
REFBUFEN must be grounded to disable the REF buffers.
A 55k internal resistance loads the REFOUT1,2,3,4 pins
when the REF buffers are disabled. To maximize the input

The REFOUT1,2,3,4 pins of the LTC2320-12 draw charge
(QCONV) from the external bypass capacitors during each
conversion cycle. If the internal reference buffer is overdriven, the external reference must provide all of this charge
with a DC current equivalent to IREF = QCONV/tCYC.
Thus, the DC current draw of IREFOUT1,2,3,4 depends
on the sampling rate and output code. In applications
where a burst of samples is taken after idling for long
periods, as shown in Figure 14 , IREFBUF quickly goes from
approximately ~75µA to a maximum of 500µA for REFOUT
= 5V at 1.5Msps. This step in DC current draw triggers a
transient response in the external reference that must be
considered since any deviation in the voltage at REFOUT
will affect the accuracy of the output code. If an external
reference is used to overdrive REFOUT1,2,3,4, the fast
settling LTC6655 reference is recommended.

signal swing and corresponding SNR, the LTC6655-5 is
recommended when overdriving REFOUT. The LTC6655-5
offers the same small size, accuracy, drift and extended
temperature range as the LTC6655-4.096. By using a 5V
reference, a higher SNR can be achieved. We recommend
bypassing the LTC6655-5 with a 10μF ceramic capacitor
(X5R, 0805 size) close to each of the REFOUT1,2,3,4
pins. If the REF pin voltage is used as a REFOUT reference when REFBUFEN is connected to GND, it should be
buffered externally.

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
Fast Fourier transform (FFT) techniques are used to test
the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise at the
rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine wave
and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm,
the ADC’s spectral content can be examined for frequencies outside the fundamental. The LTC2320-12 provides
guaranteed tested limits for both AC distortion and noise
measurements.
Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD)
The signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency and the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the A/D output. The output is bandlimited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 16 shows that the LTC2320-12 achieves
a typical SINAD of 77dB at a 1.5MHz sampling rate with
a 500kHz input.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio between the
RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and
the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components
except the first five harmonics and DC. Figure 16 shows
that the LTC2320-12 achieves a typical SNR of 77dB at a
1.5MHz sampling rate with a 500kHz input.

supply voltage drops below 2V. Once the supply voltage
re-enters the nominal supply voltage range, the POR will
reinitialize the ADC. No conversions should be initiated
until 10ms after a POR event to ensure the reinitialization
period has ended. Any conversions initiated before this
time will produce invalid results.

POWER CONSIDERATIONS
The LTC2320-12 requires two power supplies: the 3.3V
to 5V power supply (VDD), and the digital input/output
interface power supply (OVDD). The flexible OVDD supply
allows the LTC2320-12 to communicate with any digital
logic operating between 1.8V and 2.5V. When using LVDS
I/O, the OVDD supply must be set to 2.5V.
Power Supply Sequencing
The LTC2320-12 does not have any specific power supply
sequencing requirements. Care should be taken to adhere
to the maximum voltage relationships described in the
Absolute Maximum Ratings section. The LTC2320‑12
has a power-on-reset (POR) circuit that will reset the
LTC2320-12 at initial power-up or whenever the power

VDD = 5V

21
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS sum
of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental itself.
The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency band
between DC and half the sampling frequency (fSMPL /2).
THD is expressed as:
THD = 20 log
29
CNV Timing
The LTC2320-12 sampling and conversion is controlled
by CNV. A rising edge on CNV will start sampling and the
falling edge starts the conversion and readout process. The
conversion process is timed by the SCK input clock. For
optimum performance, CNV should be driven by a clean
low jitter signal. The Typical Application at the back of the
data sheet illustrates a recommended implementation to
reduce the relatively large jitter from an FPGA CNV pulse
source. Note the low jitter input clock times the falling
edge of the CNV signal. The rising edge jitter of CNV is
much less critical to performance. The typical pulse width
of the CNV signal is 30ns with < 1.5ns rise and fall times
at a 1.5Msps conversion rate.
SCK Serial Data Clock Input
In SDR mode (SDR/DDR Pin 23 = GND), the falling edge
of this clock shifts the conversion result MSB first onto
the SDO pins. A 100MHz external clock must be applied at
Rev B

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
the SCK pin to achieve 1.5Msps throughput using all eight
SDO outputs. In DDR mode (SDR/DDR Pin 23 = OVDD),
each input edge of SCK shifts the conversion result MSB
first onto the SDO pins. A 50MHz external clock must be
applied at the SCK pin to achieve 1.5Msps throughput
using all eight SDO1 through SDO8 outputs.
CLKOUT Serial Data Clock Output
The CLKOUT output provides a skew-matched clock to
latch the SDO output at the receiver. The timing skew
of the CLKOUT and SDO outputs are matched. For high
throughput applications, using CLKOUT instead of SCK to
capture the SDO output eases timing requirements at the
receiver. For low throughput speed applications, CLKOUT
can be disabled by tying Pin 34 to OVDD.
Nap/Sleep Modes
Nap mode is a method to save power without sacrificing
power-up delays for subsequent conversions. Sleep mode
has substantial power savings, but a power-up delay is
incurred to allow the reference and power systems to
become valid. To enter nap mode on the LTC2320-12,
the SCK signal must be held high or low and a series of
CNV
1
two CNV pulses must be applied. This is the case for both
CMOS and LVDS modes. The second rising edge of CNV
initiates the nap state. The nap state will persist until either
a single rising edge of SCK is applied, or further CNV pulses
are applied. The SCK rising edge will put the LTC2320-12
back into the operational (full-power) state. When in nap
mode, two additional pulses will put the LTC2320-12 in
sleep mode. When configured for CMOS I/O operation, a
single rising edge of SCK can return the LTC2320-12 into
operational mode. A 10ms delay is necessary after exiting
sleep mode to allow the reference buffer to recharge the
external filter capacitor. In LVDS mode, exit sleep mode
by supplying a fifth CNV pulse. The fifth pulse will return
the LTC2320-12 to operational mode, and further SCK
pulses will keep the part from re-entering nap and sleep
modes. The fifth SCK pulse also works in CMOS mode
as a method to exit sleep. In the absence of SCK pulses,
repetitive CNV pulses will cycle the LTC2320-12 between
operational, nap and sleep modes indefinitely.
Refer to the timing diagrams in Figure 18, Figure 19,
Figure 20 and Figure 21 for more detailed timing information about sleep and nap modes.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The LTC2320-12 features a serial digital interface that
is simple and straightforward to use. The flexible OVDD
supply allows the LTC2320-12 to communicate with any
digital logic operating between 1.8V and 2.5V. In addition to a standard CMOS SPI interface, the LTC2320-12
provides an optional LVDS SPI interface to support low
noise digital design. The CMOS /LVDS pin is used to select
the digital interface mode. The SCK input clock shifts the
conversion result MSB first on the SDO pins. CLKOUT
provides a skew-matched clock to latch the SDO output
at the receiver. The timing skew of the CLKOUT and SDO
outputs are matched. For high throughput applications,

SDOB yields CH3 and CH4 data, SDOC yields CH5 and CH6

be differentially terminated by an external 100Ω resistor at
the receiver (FPGA). The SCK+/SCK– pins are differential
inputs and must be terminated differentially by an external
100Ω resistor at the receiver(ADC).

LTC2320-12
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SDR/DDR Modes
CMOS
The LTC2320-12 has an SDR (single data rate) and DDR
(double data rate) mode for reading conversion data from
the SDO pins. In both modes, CLKOUT is a delayed version
of SCK. In SDR mode, each negative edge of SCK shifts
the conversion data out the SDO pins. In DDR mode,
each edge of the SCK input shifts the conversion data
out. In DDR mode, the required SCK frequency is half of
what is required in SDR mode. Tie SDR/DDR to ground to
configure for SDR mode and to OVDD for DDR mode. The
CLKOUT signal is a delayed version of the SCK input and is
phase aligned with the SDO data. In SDR mode, the SDO
transitions on the falling edge of CLKOUT as illustrated
in Figure 21. We recommend using the rising edge of
CLKOUT to latch the SDO data into the FPGA register in
SDR mode. In DDR mode, The SDO transitions on each
input edge of SCK. We recommend using the CLKOUT rising and falling edges to latch the SDO data into the FPGA
registers in DDR mode. Since CLKOUT and SDO data is
phase aligned, the SDO signals will need to be digitally
delayed in the FPGA to provide adequate setup and hold
timing margins in DDR mode.
In CMOS mode, the number of possible data lanes range
from eight (SDO1 – SDO8), four (SDO1, SDO3, SDO5
and SDO7), two (SDO1 and SDO5) and one (SDO1). As
suggested in the CMOS Timing Diagrams, each SDO lane
outputs the conversion results for all analog input channels in a sequential circular manner. For example, the first
conversion result on SDO1 corresponds to analog input
channel 1, followed by the conversion results for channels 2 through 8. The data output on SDO1 then wraps
back to channel 1 and this pattern repeats indefinitely. Other
SDO lanes follow a similar circular pattern except the first
conversion result presented on each lane corresponds to
its associated analog input channel.
Multiple Data Lanes
The LTC2320-12 has up to eight SDO data lanes in CMOS
mode and four SDO lanes in LVDS mode. In CMOS mode,
the number of possible data lanes range from eight
(SDO1 – SDO8), four (SDO1, SDO3, SDO5 and SDO7), two
(SDO1 and SDO5) and one (SDO1). Generally, the more
data lanes used, the lower the required SCK frequency.
When using less than eight lanes in CMOS mode, there
is a limit on the maximum possible conversion frequency
(see Table 3). Each SDO pin will hold the MSB of the conversion data. In DDR mode you can use a SCK frequency
half the SDR mode. See Table 3 for examples of various
possibilities and the resulting SCK frequency required.
Multiple Data Lanes
The LTC2320-12 has up to eight serial data output data
lanes in CMOS mode and four serial data output lane pairs
in LVDS mode. The data on each lane consists of 12-bit
conversion results presented MSB first.
28
Applications that cannot accommodate the full eight lanes
of serial data may employ fewer lanes without reconfiguring the LTC2320-12. For example, capturing the first two
conversion results (32 SCK cycles total in SDR mode and
32 SCK edges in DDR mode) from SDO1, SDO3, SDO5,
and SDO7 provides data for analog input channels 1 and
2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, and 7 and 8, respectively, using four
output lanes. Similarly, capturing the first four conversion
results (64 SCK cycles total in SDR mode and 64 SCK
edges in DDR mode) from SDO1 and SDO5 provides data
for analog input channels 1 to 4 and 5 to 8, respectively,
using two output lanes. If only one lane can be accommodated, capturing the first eight conversion results
(128 SCK cycles total in SDR mode and 128 SCK edges in
DDR mode) from SDO1 provides data for all analog input
channels. Generally, the more data lanes used, the lower
the required SCK frequency. When using less than eight
lanes in CMOS mode, there is a limit on the maximum
possible conversion frequency. See Table 3 for examples
of various possibilities and the resulting SCK frequency
required.
LVDS
In LVDS mode, the number of possible data lane pairs range
from four (SDOA – SDOD), two (SDOA and SDOC) and
one (SDOA). As suggested in the LVDS Timing Diagrams,
each SDO lane pair outputs the conversion results for all
analog input channels in a sequential circular manner.
Rev B

LTC2320-12
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For example, the first conversion result on SDOA corresponds to analog input channel pair 1 and 2, followed
by the conversion results for channels 3 through 8. The
data output on SDOA then wraps back to channel 1 and
this pattern repeats indefinitely. Other SDO lanes follow a
similar circular pattern except the first conversion result
presented on each lane corresponds to its associated
analog input channel pairs (SDOA: analog inputs 1 and
2, SDOB: analog inputs 3 and 4, SDOC: analog inputs 5
and 6 and SDOD: analog inputs 7 and 8).
See Table 3 for examples of various possibilities and the
resulting SCK frequency required.
BOARD LAYOUT
To obtain the best performance from the LTC2320-12,
a printed circuit board is recommended. Layout for the
printed circuit board (PCB) should ensure the digital and
analog signal lines are separated as much as possible.
In particular, care should be taken not to run any digital
clocks or signals adjacent to analog signals or underneath
the ADC.
Applications that cannot accommodate the full four lanes
of serial data may employ fewer lanes without reconfiguring the LTC2320-12. For example, capturing the first four
conversion results (64 SCK cycles total in SDR mode
and 64 SCK edges in DDR mode) from SDOA and SDOC
provides data for analog input channels 1 through 4, and
5 through 8, respectively, using two output lanes. If only
one lane can be accommodated, capturing the first eight
conversion results (128 SCK cycles total in SDR mode
and 128 SCK edges in DDR mode) from SDOA provides
data for all analog input channels. Generally, the more
data lanes used, the lower the required SCK frequency.
When using less than four lanes in LVDS mode, there is
a limit on the maximum possible conversion frequency.
Supply bypass capacitors should be placed as close as
possible to the supply pins. Low impedance common
returns for these bypass capacitors are essential to the
low noise operation of the ADC. A single solid ground
plane is recommended for this purpose. When possible,
screen the analog input traces using ground.
Recommended Layout
