The output serial data is straight binary and is compatible
with several standards, such as SPI™, QSPI, MICROWIRE,
and many common DSP serial interfaces.
Key Specifications
The ADC128S022 may be operated with independent analog and digital supplies. The analog supply (VA) can range
from +2.7V to +5.25V, and the digital supply (VD) can range
from +2.7V to VA. Normal power consumption using a +3V or
+5V supply is 1.2 mW and 7.5 mW, respectively. The powerdown feature reduces the power consumption to 0.06 µW
using a +3V supply and 0.25 µW using a +5V supply.
The ADC128S022 is packaged in a 16-lead TSSOP package. Operation over the extended industrial temperature
range of −40˚C to +105˚C is guaranteed.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed
specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test
conditions.
Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to GND = 0V, unless otherwise specified.
Note 3: When the input voltage at any pin exceeds the power supplies (that is, VIN < AGND or VIN > VA or VD), the current at that pin should be limited to 10 mA.
The 20 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 10 mA to two.
Note 4: The absolute maximum junction temperature (TJmax) for this device is 150˚C. The maximum allowable power dissipation is dictated by TJmax, the
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA), and the ambient temperature (TA), and can be calculated using the formula PDMAX = (TJmax − TA)/θJA. In the 16-pin
TSSOP, θJA is 96˚C/W, so PDMAX = 1,200 mW at 25˚C and 625 mW at the maximum operating ambient temperature of 105˚C. Note that the power consumption
of this device under normal operation is a maximum of 12 mW. The values for maximum power dissipation listed above will be reached only when the ADC128S022
is operated in a severe fault condition (e.g. when input or output pins are driven beyond the power supply voltages, or the power supply polarity is reversed).
Obviously, such conditions should always be avoided.
Note 5: Human body model is 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor. Machine model is 220 pF discharged through ZERO ohms
Note 6: Reflow temperature profiles are different for lead-free packages.
Note 7: Tested limits are guaranteed to National’s AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 8: Data sheet min/max specification limits are guaranteed by design, test, or statistical analysis.
Note 9: Clock may be in any state (high or low) when CS goes high. Setup and hold time restrictions apply only to CS going low.

ACQUISITION TIME is the time required for the ADC to
acquire the input voltage. During this time, the hold capacitor
is charged by the input voltage.
second or the third order intermodulation products to the
sum of the power in both of the original frequencies. Second
order products are fa ± fb, where fa and fb are the two sine
wave input frequencies. Third order products are (2fa ± fb )
and (fa ± 2fb). IMD is usually expressed in dB.
APERTURE DELAY is the time between the fourth falling
edge of SCLK and the time when the input signal is internally
acquired or held for conversion.
MISSING CODES are those output codes that will never
appear at the ADC outputs. The ADC128S022 is guaranteed
not to have any missing codes.
CONVERSION TIME is the time required, after the input
voltage is acquired, for the ADC to convert the input voltage
to a digital word.
OFFSET ERROR is the deviation of the first code transition
(000...000) to (000...001) from the ideal (i.e. GND + 0.5
LSB).
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO (SNR) is the ratio, expressed in
dB, of the rms value of the input signal to the rms value of the
sum of all other spectral components below one-half the
sampling frequency, not including harmonics or d.c.
Specification Definitions
CHANNEL-TO-CHANNEL ISOLATION is resistance to coupling of energy from one channel into another channel
CROSSTALK is the coupling of energy from one channel
into another channel. This is similar to Channel-to-Channel
Isolation, except for the sign of the data.
SIGNAL TO NOISE PLUS DISTORTION (S/N+D or SINAD)
Is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of the input
signal to the rms value of all of the other spectral components below half the clock frequency, including harmonics
but excluding d.c.
DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of
the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1 LSB.
DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time that a repetitive digital
waveform is high to the total time of one period. The specification here refers to the SCLK.
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the difference, expressed in dB, between the rms values of the input
signal and the peak spurious signal where a spurious signal
is any signal present in the output spectrum that is not
present at the input, including harmonics but excluding d.c.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio, expressed in dBc, of the rms total of the first five harmonic
components at the output to the rms level of the input signal
frequency as seen at the output. THD is calculated as
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE
BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise and
Distortion or SINAD. ENOB is defined as (SINAD - 1.76) /
6.02 and says that the converter is equivalent to a perfect
ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits.
FULL POWER BANDWIDTH is a measure of the frequency
at which the reconstructed output fundamental drops 3 dB
below its low frequency value for a full scale input.
GAIN ERROR is the deviation of the last code transition
(111...110) to (111...111) from the ideal (VREF - 1.5 LSB),
after adjusting for offset error.
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of the
deviation of each individual code from a line drawn from
negative full scale (1⁄2 LSB below the first code transition)
through positive full scale (1⁄2 LSB above the last code
transition). The deviation of any given code from this straight
line is measured from the center of that code value.
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of
additional spectral components as a result of two sinusoidal
frequencies being applied to an individual ADC input at the
same time. It is defined as the ratio of the power in either the
www.national.com
where Af1 is the RMS power of the input frequency at the
output and Af2 through Af10 are the RMS power in the first 9
harmonic frequencies.
THROUGHPUT TIME is the minimum time required between
the start of two successive conversions. It is the acquisition
time plus the conversion time.

Figure 5 shows the ADC128S022 in hold mode: switch SW1
connects the sampling capacitor to ground, maintaining the
sampled voltage, and switch SW2 unbalances the comparator. The control logic then instructs the charge-redistribution
DAC to add or subtract fixed amounts of charge to or from
the sampling capacitor until the comparator is balanced.
When the comparator is balanced, the digital word supplied
to the DAC is the digital representation of the analog input
voltage. The ADC128S022 is in this state for the last thirteen
SCLK cycles after CS is brought low.

The ADC128S022 is a successive-approximation analog-todigital converter designed around a charge-redistribution
digital-to-analog converter.
1.1 ADC128S022 OPERATION
Simplified schematics of the ADC128S022 in both track and
hold operation are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 respectively. In Figure 4, the ADC128S022 is in track mode: switch
SW1 connects the sampling capacitor to one of eight analog
input channels through the multiplexer, and SW2 balances
the comparator inputs. The ADC128S022 is in this state for
the first three SCLK cycles after CS is brought low.

1.2 SERIAL INTERFACE
An operational timing diagram and a serial interface timing
diagram for the ADC128S022 are shown in The Timing
Diagrams section. CS, chip select, initiates conversions and
frames the serial data transfers. SCLK (serial clock) controls
both the conversion process and the timing of serial data.
DOUT is the serial data output pin, where a conversion result
is sent as a serial data stream, MSB first. Data to be written
to the ADC128S022’s Control Register is placed on DIN, the
serial data input pin. New data is written to DIN with each
conversion.
A serial frame is initiated on the falling edge of CS and ends
on the rising edge of CS. Each frame must contain an integer
multiple of 16 rising SCLK edges. The ADC’s DOUT pin is in
a high impedance state when CS is high and is active when
CS is low. Thus, CS acts as an output enable. Similarly,
SCLK is internally gated off when CS is brought high.

During the first 3 cycles of SCLK, the ADC is in the track
mode, acquiring the input voltage. For the next 13 SCLK
cycles the conversion is accomplished and the data is
clocked out. SCLK falling edges 1 through 4 clock out leading zeros while falling edges 5 through 16 clock out the
conversion result, MSB first. If there is more than one conversion in a frame (continuous conversion mode), the ADC
will re-enter the track mode on the falling edge of SCLK after
the N*16th rising edge of SCLK and re-enter the hold/
convert mode on the N*16+4th falling edge of SCLK. "N" is
an integer value.
The ADC128S022 enters track mode under three different
conditions. In Figure 1, CS goes low with SCLK high and the
ADC enters track mode on the first falling edge of SCLK. In
the second condition, CS goes low with SCLK low. Under
this condition, the ADC automatically enters track mode and
the falling edge of CS is seen as the first falling edge of
SCLK. In the third condition, CS and SCLK go low simulta14
after the fall of CS. The control register is loaded with data
indicating the input channel to be converted on the subsequent conversion (see Tables 1, 2, 3).

neously and the ADC enters track mode. While there is no
timing restriction with respect to the falling edges of CS and
SCLK, see Figure 3 for setup and hold time requirements for
the falling edge of CS with respect to the rising edge of
SCLK.
The user does not need to incorporate a power-up delay or
dummy conversions as the ADC128S022 is able to acquire
the input signal to full resolution in the first conversion immediately following power-up. The first conversion result
after power-up will be that of IN0.
During each conversion, data is clocked into a control register through the DIN pin on the first 8 rising edges of SCLK

1.4 ANALOG INPUTS
An equivalent circuit for one of the ADC128S022’s input
channels is shown in Figure 7. Diodes D1 and D2 provide
ESD protection for the analog inputs. The operating range
for the analog inputs is 0 V to VA. Going beyond this range
will cause the ESD diodes to conduct and result in erratic
operation.
The capacitor C1 in Figure 7 has a typical value of 3 pF and
is mainly the package pin capacitance. Resistor R1 is the on
resistance of the multiplexer and track / hold switch and is
typically 500 ohms. Capacitor C2 is the ADC128S022 sampling capacitor, and is typically 30 pF. The ADC128S022 will
deliver best performance when driven by a low-impedance
source (less than 100 ohms). This is especially important
when using the ADC128S022 to sample dynamic signals.
Also important when sampling dynamic signals is a bandpass or low-pass filter which reduces harmonics and noise in
the input. These filters are often referred to as anti-aliasing
filters.
1.3 ADC128S022 TRANSFER FUNCTION
The output format of the ADC128S022 is straight binary.
Code transitions occur midway between successive integer
LSB values. The LSB width for the ADC128S022 is VA /
4096. The ideal transfer characteristic is shown in Figure 6.
The transition from an output code of 0000 0000 0000 to a
code of 0000 0000 0001 is at 1/2 LSB, or a voltage of VA /
8192. Other code transitions occur at steps of one LSB.

1.5 DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
The ADC128S022’s digital inputs (SCLK, CS, and DIN) have
an operating range of -0.3 V to VA. They are not prone to
latch-up and may be asserted before the digital supply (VD)
without any risk. The digital output (DOUT) operating range
is controlled by VD. The output high voltage is VD - 0.5V
(min) while the output low voltage is 0.4V (max).

1.0 Functional Description
ADC128S022
close to the ADC128S022. The digital supply is separated
from the analog supply by an isolation resistor and bypassed
with additional capacitors. The ADC128S022 uses the analog supply (VA) as its reference voltage, so it is very important that VA be kept as clean as possible. Due to the low
power requirements of the ADC128S022, it is also possible
to use a precision reference as a power supply.
2.0 Applications Information
2.1 TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT
A typical application is shown in Figure 8. The split analog
and digital supply pins are both powered in this example by
the National LP2950 low-dropout voltage regulator. The analog supply is bypassed with a capacitor network located

add the fraction of time spent in shutdown mode (tS) multiplied by the shutdown mode power consumption (PS) as
shown in Figure 9.
2.2 POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
There are three major power supply concerns with this product: power supply sequencing, power management, and the
effect of digital supply noise on the analog supply.
2.2.1 Power Supply Sequence
The ADC128S022 is a dual-supply device. The two supply
pins share ESD resources, so care must be exercised to
ensure that the power is applied in the correct sequence. To
avoid turning on the ESD diodes, the digital supply (VD)
cannot exceed the analog supply (VA) by more than 300 mV,
not even on a transient basis. Therefore, VA must ramp up
before or concurrently with VD.
20162715
FIGURE 9. Power Consumption Equation
2.2.3 Power Supply Noise Considerations
The charging of any output load capacitance requires current from the digital supply, VD. The current pulses required
from the supply to charge the output capacitance will cause
voltage variations on the digital supply. If these variations are
large enough, they could degrade SNR and SINAD performance of the ADC. Furthermore, if the analog and digital
supplies are tied directly together, the noise on the digital
supply will be coupled directly into the analog supply, causing greater performance degradation than would noise on
the digital supply alone. Similarly, discharging the output
capacitance when the digital output goes from a logic high to
a logic low will dump current into the die substrate, which is
resistive. Load discharge currents will cause "ground
bounce" noise in the substrate that will degrade noise performance if that current is large enough. The larger the
output capacitance, the more current flows through the die
substrate and the greater the noise coupled into the analog
channel.
The first solution to keeping digital noise out of the analog
supply is to decouple the analog and digital supplies from
each other or use separate supplies for them. To keep noise
out of the digital supply, keep the output load capacitance as
small as practical. If the load capacitance is greater than 50
pF, use a 100 Ω series resistor at the ADC output, located as
2.2.2 Power Management
The ADC128S022 is fully powered-up whenever CS is low
and fully powered-down whenever CS is high, with one
exception. If operating in continuous conversion mode, the
ADC128S022 automatically enters power-down mode between SCLK’s 16th falling edge of a conversion and SCLK’s
1st falling edge of the subsequent conversion (see Figure 1).
In continuous conversion mode, the ADC128S022 can perform multiple conversions back to back. Each conversion
requires 16 SCLK cycles and the ADC128S022 will perform
conversions continuously as long as CS is held low. Continuous mode offers maximum throughput.
In burst mode, the user may trade off throughput for power
consumption by performing fewer conversions per unit time.
This means spending more time in power-down mode and
less time in normal mode. By utilizing this technique, the
user can achieve very low sample rates while still utilizing an
SCLK frequency within the electrical specifications. The
Power Consumption vs. SCLK curve in the Typical Performance Curves section shows the typical power consumption
of the ADC128S022. To calculate the power consumption
(PC), simply multiply the fraction of time spent in the normal
mode (tN) by the normal mode power consumption (PN), and

high resolution systems, avoid crossing analog and digital
lines altogether. It is important to keep clock lines as short as
possible and isolated from ALL other lines, including other
digital lines. In addition, the clock line should also be treated
as a transmission line and be properly terminated.
(Continued)
close to the ADC output pin as practical. This will limit the
charge and discharge current of the output capacitance and
improve noise performance. Since the series resistor and
the load capacitor form a low frequency pole, verify the
signal integrity once the series resistor has been added.
The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces
to avoid coupling of spurious signals into the input. Any
external component (e.g., a filter capacitor) connected between the converter’s input pins and ground or to the reference input pin and ground should be connected to a very
clean point in the ground plane.
We recommend the use of a single, uniform ground plane
and the use of split power planes. The power planes should
be located within the same board layer. All analog circuitry
(input amplifiers, filters, reference components, etc.) should
be placed over the analog power plane. All digital circuitry
and I/O lines should be placed over the digital power plane.
Furthermore, all components in the reference circuitry and
the input signal chain that are connected to ground should
be connected together with short traces and enter the analog
ground plane at a single, quiet point.
2.3 Layout and Grounding
Capacitive coupling between the noisy digital circuitry and
the sensitive analog circuitry can lead to poor performance.
The solution is to keep the analog circuitry separated from
the digital circuitry and the clock line as short as possible.
Digital circuits create substantial supply and ground current
transients. The logic noise generated could have significant
impact upon system noise performance. To avoid performance degradation of the ADC128S022 due to supply noise,
do not use the same supply for the ADC128S022 that is used
for digital logic.
Generally, analog and digital lines should cross each other at
90˚ to avoid crosstalk. However, to maximize accuracy in
