LINER LTC1861IS8

LTC1860/LTC1861
µPower, 12-Bit, 250ksps
1- and 2-Channel ADCs in MSOP
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LTC®1860/LTC1861 are 12-bit A/D converters that are
offered in MSOP and SO-8 packages and operate on a single
5V supply. At 250ksps, the supply current is only 850μA.
The supply current drops at lower speeds because the
LTC1860/LTC1861 automatically power down to a typical
supply current of 1nA between conversions. These 12-bit
switched capacitor successive approximation ADCs include
sample-and-holds. The LTC1860 has a differential analog
input with an adjustable reference pin. The LTC1861 offers
a software-selectable 2-channel MUX and an adjustable
reference pin on the MSOP version.

High Speed Data Acquisition
Portable or Compact Instrumentation
Low Power Battery-Operated Instrumentation
Isolated and/or Remote Data Acquisition
The 3-wire, serial I/O, MSOP or SO-8 package and
extremely high sample rate-to-power ratio make these
ADCs ideal choices for compact, low power, high speed
systems.
These ADCs can be used in ratiometric applications or
with external references. The high impedance analog inputs and the ability to operate with reduced spans down
to 1V full scale, allow direct connection to signal sources
in many applications, eliminating the need for external
gain stages.

PIN FUNCTIONS
LTC1860
VREF (Pin 1): Reference Input. The reference input defines
the span of the A/D converter and must be kept free of
noise with respect to GND.
SDI (Pin 6): Digital Data Input. The A/D configuration
word is shifted into this input.
SDO (Pin 7): Digital Data Output. The A/D conversion
result is shifted out of this output.
IN +, IN– (Pins 2, 3): Analog Inputs. These inputs must be
free of noise with respect to GND.
SCK (Pin 8): Shift Clock Input. This clock synchronizes
the serial data transfer.
GND (Pin 4): Analog Ground. GND should be tied directly
to an analog ground plane.
VCC (Pin 9): Positive Supply. This supply must be kept
free of noise and ripple by bypassing directly to the
analog ground plane.
CONV (Pin 5): Convert Input. A logic high on this input
starts the A/D conversion process. If the CONV input is
left high after the A/D conversion is finished, the part
powers down. A logic low on this input enables the SDO
pin, allowing the data to be shifted out.
SDO (Pin 6): Digital Data Output. The A/D conversion
result is shifted out of this pin.
SCK (Pin 7): Shift Clock Input. This clock synchronizes
the serial data transfer.
VCC (Pin 8): Positive Supply. This supply must be kept
free of noise and ripple by bypassing directly to the

CONV (Pin 1): Convert Input. A logic high on this input
starts the A/D conversion process. If the CONV input is
left high after the A/D conversion is finished, the part
powers down. A logic low on this input enables the SDO
pin, allowing the data to be shifted out.
VREF (Pin 10): Reference Input. The reference input defines
the span of the A/D converter and must be kept free of
noise with respect to AGND.
LTC1861 (SO-8 Package)
CONV (Pin 1): Convert Input. A logic high on this input
starts the A/D conversion process. If the CONV input is
left high after the A/D conversion is finished, the part
powers down. A logic low on this input enables the SDO
pin, allowing the data to be shifted out.
CH0, CH1 (Pins 2, 3): Analog Inputs. These inputs must
be free of noise with respect to GND.
GND (Pin 4): Analog Ground. GND should be tied directly
to an analog ground plane.
SDI (Pin 5): Digital Data Input. The A/D configuration
word is shifted into this input.
SDO (Pin 6): Digital Data Output. The A/D conversion
result is shifted out of this output.
CH0, CH1 (Pins 2, 3): Analog Inputs. These inputs must
be free of noise with respect to AGND.
SCK (Pin 7): Shift Clock Input. This clock synchronizes
the serial data transfer.
AGND (Pin 4): Analog Ground. AGND should be tied directly
to an analog ground plane.
VCC (Pin 8): Positive Supply. This supply must be kept
free of noise and ripple by bypassing directly to the analog
ground plane. VREF is tied internally to this pin.
DGND (Pin 5): Digital Ground. DGND should be tied directly
to an analog ground plane.

LTC1860 OPERATION
Analog Inputs
Operating Sequence
The LTC1860 has a unipolar differential analog input. The
converter will measure the voltage between the “IN + ”
and “IN–” inputs. A zero code will occur when IN+ minus
IN– equals zero. Full scale occurs when IN+ minus IN–
equals VREF minus 1LSB. See Figure 2. Both the “IN+” and
“IN–” inputs are sampled at the same time, so common
mode noise on the inputs is rejected by the ADC. If “IN–”
is grounded and VREF is tied to VCC, a rail-to-rail input
span will result on “IN+” as shown in Figure 3.
The LTC1860 conversion cycle begins with the rising edge
of CONV. After a period equal to t CONV, the conversion is
finished. If CONV is left high after this time, the LTC1860
goes into sleep mode drawing only leakage current. On the
falling edge of CONV, the LTC1860 goes into sample mode
and SDO is enabled. SCK synchronizes the data transfer
with each bit being transmitted from SDO on the falling
SCK edge. The receiving system should capture the data
from SDO on the rising edge of SCK. After completing the
data transfer, if further SCK clocks are applied with CONV
low, SDO will output zeros indefinitely. See Figure 1.
Reference Input
The voltage on the reference input of the LTC1860 (and the
LTC1861 MSOP package) defines the full-scale range of
the A/D converter. These ADCs can operate with reference
voltages from VCC to 1V.

Figure 5. LTC1861 Transfer Curve
LTC1861 OPERATION
Operating Sequence
The LTC1861 conversion cycle begins with the rising edge
of CONV. After a period equal to t CONV, the conversion is
finished. If CONV is left high after this time, the LTC1861
goes into sleep mode. The LTC1861’s 2-bit data word is
clocked into the SDI input on the rising edge of SCK after
CONV goes low. Additional inputs on the SDI pin are then
ignored until the next CONV cycle. The shift clock (SCK)
synchronizes the data transfer with each bit being transmitted on the falling SCK edge and captured on the rising
SCK edge in both transmitting and receiving systems.
The data is transmitted and received simultaneously (full
duplex). After completing the data transfer, if further SCK
clocks are applied with CONV low, SDO will output zeros
indefinitely. See Figure 4.
Analog Inputs
The two bits of the input word (SDI) assign the MUX
configuration for the next requested conversion. For a
given channel selection, the converter will measure the
voltage between the two channels indicated by the “+”
and “–” signs in the selected row of the following table. In
single-ended mode, all input channels are measured with
respect to GND (or AGND). A zero code will occur when
the “+” input minus the “–” input equals zero. Full scale
occurs when the “+” input minus the “–” input equals
VREF minus 1LSB. See Figure 5. Both the “+” and “–”
inputs are sampled at the same time so common mode
noise is rejected. The input span in the SO-8 package is
fixed at VREF = VCC. If the “–” input in differential mode
is grounded, a rail-to-rail input span will result on the
“+” input.

LTC1860/LTC1861
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Reference Input
Bypassing
The reference input of the LTC1861 SO-8 package is
internally tied to VCC. The span of the A/D converter is
therefore equal to VCC. The voltage on the reference input
of the LTC1861 MSOP package defines the span of the A/D
converter. The LTC1861 MSOP package can operate with
reference voltages from 1V to VCC.
For good performance, the VCC and VREF pins must be free
of noise and ripple. Any changes in the VCC/VREF voltage
with respect to ground during the conversion cycle can
induce errors or noise in the output code. Bypass the VCC
and VREF pins directly to the analog ground plane with
a minimum of 1μF tantalum. Keep the bypass capacitor
leads as short as possible.
GENERAL ANALOG CONSIDERATIONS
Analog Inputs
Grounding
Because of the capacitive redistribution A/D conversion
techniques used, the analog inputs of the LTC1860/LTC1861
have capacitive switching input current spikes. These current spikes settle quickly and do not cause a problem if
source resistances are less than 200Ω or high speed op
amps are used (e.g., the LT®1211, LT1469, LT1807, LT1810,
LT1630, LT1226 or LT1215). But if large source resistances
are used, or if slow settling op amps drive the inputs, take
care to ensure the transients caused by the current spikes
settle completely before the conversion begins.
The LTC1860/LTC1861 should be used with an analog
ground plane and single point grounding techniques. Do not
use wire wrapping techniques to breadboard and evaluate
the device. To achieve the optimum performance, use a
printed circuit board. The ground pins (AGND and DGND
for the LTC1861 MSOP package and GND for the LTC1860
and LTC1861 SO-8 package) should be tied directly to the
analog ground plane with minimum lead length.
