NOTES: (1) CMOS/TTL compatible, i.e., Logic “0” = 0.8V, max, Logic “1” = 2.0V, min for inputs. For digital outputs Logic “0” = 0.4V, max, Logic “1’ = 2.4V, min. (2) Adjustable to zero. See “Optional External Gain and Offset Adjustment” section. (3) FSR means Full Scale Range. For example, unit connected for ±10V range has 20V FSR. (4) Conversion time may be shortened with “Short Cycle” set for lower resolution and with use of Clock Rate Control. See “Optional Conversion Time Adjustment” section. The Clock Rate Control (pin 23) should be connected to Digital Common for specified conversion time. Short Cycle (pin 32) should be left open for 16-bit resolution or connected to the n + 1 digital output for n-bit resolution. For example, connect Short Cycle to Bit 15 (pin 15) for 14-bit resolution. For resolutions less than 16 bits, pin 32 should also be tied to +5V through a 2kΩ resistor. (5) See Table I. CSB = Complementary Straight Binary, COB = Complementary Offset Binary, CTC = Complementary Two’s Complement. (6) CTC coding obtained by inverting MSB (pin 1).

All successive approximation A/ D converters have an inherent quantization error of ±1/ 2LSB. The remaining errors in the A/ D converter are combinations of analog errors due to the linear circuitry, matching and tracking properties of the ladder and scaling networks, power supply rejection, and reference errors. In summary, these errors consist of initial errors including Gain, Offset, Linearity, Differential Linearity, and Power Supply Sensitivity. Initial Gain and Offset errors may be adjusted to zero. Gain drift over temperature rotates the line (Figure l) about the zero or minus full scale point (all bits Off) and Offset drift shifts the line left or right over the operating temperature range. Linearity error is unadjustable and is the most meaningful indicator of A/ D converter accuracy. Linearity error is the deviation of an actual bit transition from the ideal transition value at any level over the range of the A/ D converter. A differential linearity error of ±1/ 2LSB means that the width of each bit step over the range of the A/ D converter is 1LSB, ±1/ 2LSB.

DISCUSSION OF SPECIFICATIONS DIFFERENTIAL LINEARITY ERROR Differential linearity describes the step size between transition values. A differential linearity error of ±0.003% of FSR indicates that the size of any step may not vary from the ideal step size by more than 0.003% of Full Scale Range. The ADC76 is specified to meet critical performance criteria for a wide variety of applications. The most critical specifications for an A/ D converter are linearity, drift, gain and offset errors, and conversion speed effects on accuracy. This ADC is factory-trimmed and tested for all critical key specifications. ACCURACY VERSUS SPEED In successive approximation A/ D converters, the conversion speed affects linearity and differential linearity errors. Conversion speed and its effect on linearity and differential linearity errors for the ADC76 are shown in Figure 6. GAIN AND OFFSET ERROR Initial Gain and Offset errors are factory-trimmed to typically ±0.1% of FSR (±0.05% for unipolar offset) at 25°C. These errors may be trimmed to zero by connecting external trim potentiometers as shown in Figures 10 and 11. POWER SUPPLY SENSITIVITY Changes in the DC power supply voltages will affect accuracy. The ADC76 power supply sensitivity is specified at ±0.003% of FSR/%VS for the ±15V supplies and ±0.0015% of FSR/%VS for the +5V supply. Normally, regulated power supplies with 1% or less ripple are recommended for use with this ADC. See Layout Precautions, Power Supply Decoupling, and Figure 7.

If these grounds must be run separately, use a wide conductor pattern and a 0.01µF to 0.1µF nonpolarized bypass capacitor between analog and digital commons at the unit. Low impedance analog and digital common returns are essential for low noise performance. Coupling between analog inputs and digital lines should be minimized by careful layout. The comparator input (pin 27) is extremely sensitive to noise. Any connection to this point should be as short as possible and shielded by Analog Common or ±15VDC supply patterns.

OUTPUT DRIVE Normally all ADC76 logic outputs will drive two standard TTL loads; however, if long digital lines must be driven, external logic buffers are recommended. INPUT IMPEDANCE The input signal to the ADC76 should be low impedance, such as the output of an op amp, to avoid any errors due to the relatively low input impedance of the ADC76. POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING The power supplies should be bypassed with tantalum or electrolytic capacitors as shown in Figure 7 to obtain noise free operation. These capacitors should be located close to the ADC. 21 25 If this impedance is not low, a buffer amplifier should be added between the input signal and the direct input to the ADC76 as shown in Figure 9. –15VDC 30 +5VDC 1µF + + 22 Analog Common Analog Input Signal 1µF 19 1µF Digital Common 10MΩ + Connect to Pin 24 or Pin 25 – + OPA633 28 To Star (Meeting Point) Ground +15VDC FIGURE 7. Recommended Power Supply Decoupling. FIGURE 9. Source Impedance Buffering. INPUT SCALING The analog input should be scaled as close to the maximum input signal range as possible in order to utilize the maximum signal resolution of the A/ D converter. Connect the input signal as shown in Table II. See Figure 8 for circuit details. OPTIONAL EXTERNAL GAIN AND OFFSET ADJUSTMENTS Gain and Offset errors may be trimmed to zero using external gain and offset trim potentiometers connected to the ADC as shown in Figures 10 and 11. Multiturn potentiometers with 100ppm/°C or better TCRs are recommended for minimum drift over temperature and time. These pots may be any value from 10kΩ to 100kΩ. All resistors should be 20% carbon or better. Pin 29 (Gain Adjust) and pin 27 (Offset Adjust) may be left open if no external adjustment is required; however, pin 29 should always be bypassed with 0.01µF to Analog Common.
