The 24-bit sigma-delta ADC contains two fully differential analog input channels that can be configured with a gain of 1 or 16 allowing full-scale input signal ranges of ± 2.56 V or ± 160 mV from a +2.5 V differential reference input. The AD7782 has an extremely simple, read-only digital interface which can be operated in master mode or slave mode. There are no on-chip registers to be programmed. The input signal range and input channel selection are configured using two external pins.

The output data rate from the part is fixed via the master clock at 19.79 Hz and provides simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection at this update rate. Eighteen-bit p-p resolution can be obtained at this update rate. The part operates from a single 3 V or 5 V supply. When operating from 3 V supplies, the power dissipation for the part is 3.9 mW. The AD7782 is available in a 16-lead TSSOP package. Another part in the AD778x family is the AD7783. It is similar to the AD7782 except it has two integrated current sources and only one differential input channel. SPI and QSPI are trademarks of Motorola Inc.

With RANGE = 0, the full-scale input range is ± 160 mV while the full-scale input range equals ± 2.56 V when RANGE = 1 for a +2.5 V Reference. SCLK Serial Clock Input/Output for Data Transfers from the ADC. When the device is operated in master mode, SCLK is an output with one SCLK period equal to one XTAL period. In slave mode, SCLK is generated by an external source. In slave mode, all the data can be transmitted on a continuous train of pulses. Alternatively, SCLK can be a noncontinuous clock with the information being transmitted from the AD7782 in smaller batches of data. SCLK is Schmitt triggered (slave mode) making the interface suitable for optoisolated applications. CS Chip Select Input. CS is an active low logic input used to select the AD7782. When CS is low, the PLL establishes lock and allows the AD7782 to initiate a conversion on the selected channel. When CS is high, the conversion is aborted, DOUT and SCLK are three-stated, the AD7782 enters standby mode and any conversion result in the output shift register is lost. DOUT/RDY Serial Data Output/Data Ready Output. DOUT/RDY serves a dual purpose in this interface. When a conversion is initiated, DOUT/RDY goes high and remains high until the conversion is complete. DOUT/RDY will then return low to indicate that valid data is available to be read from the device. In slave mode, this acts as an interrupt to the processor indicating that valid data is available. If data is not read after a conversion, DOUT/RDY will go high before the next update occurs. In master mode, DOUT/RDY goes low for at least half an SCLK cycle before the device produces SCLKs. When SCLK becomes active, data is output on the DOUT/RDY pin. Data is output on the falling SCLK edge and is valid on the rising edge. MODE The MODE pin selects master or slave mode of operation. When MODE = 0, the AD7782 operates in master mode while the AD7782 is configured for slave mode when MODE = 1. GND Ground Reference Point for the AD7782. VDD Supply Voltage, 3 V or 5 V Nominal.

This ADC input is buffered and can be programmed to have an input voltage range of ± 160 mV or ± 2.56 V. The input channels are configured as two fully differential inputs. Buffering the input channels means that the part can accommodate significant source impedances on the analog inputs and that R, C filtering (for noise rejection or RFI reduction) can be placed on the analog inputs if required. The device requires an external reference of +2.5 V nominal. Figure 3 shows the basic connections required to operate the part. f ADC = 32.768 × 10 3 / (69 × 8 × 3) while the settling time equals: 2 t SETTLE = = 2 × t ADC f ADC Normal-mode rejection is the major function of the digital filter on the AD7782. Simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection of better than 60 dB is achieved as notches are placed at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz.

Noise Distribution Histogram OUT– 1.5 –7– AD7782 NOISE PERFORMANCE MASTER MODE (MODE = 0) Table I shows the output rms noise and output peak-to-peak resolution in bits (rounded to the nearest 0.5 LSB) for the two input voltage ranges. The numbers are typical and generated at a differential input voltage of 0 V. The peak-to-peak resolution figures represent the resolution for which there will be no code flicker within a six-sigma limit. The output noise comes from two sources. The first is the electrical noise in the semiconductor devices (device noise) used in the implementation of the modulator. Secondly, when the analog input is converted into the digital domain, quantization noise is added. The device noise is at a low level and is independent of frequency. The quantization noise starts at an even lower level but rises rapidly with increasing frequency to become the dominant noise source. In this mode, SCLK is provided by the AD7782. With CS low, SCLK becomes active when a conversion is complete and generates twenty four falling and rising edges. The DOUT/RDY pin, which is normally high, goes low to indicate that a conversion is complete. Data is output on the DOUT/RDY pin following the SCLK falling edge and is valid on the SCLK rising edge. When the 24-bit word has been output, SCLK idles high until the next conversion is complete. DOUT/RDY returns high and will remain high until another conversion is available. It then operates as a RDY signal again. The part will continue to convert until CS is taken high. SCLK and DOUT/RDY are three-stated when CS is taken high. SLAVE MODE (MODE = 1) In slave mode, the SCLK is generated externally. SCLK must idle high between data transfers. With CS low, DOUT/RDY goes low when a conversion is complete. Twenty four SCLK pulses are needed to transfer the digital word from the AD7782. Twenty four consecutive pulses can be generated or, alternatively, the data transfer can be split into batches. This is useful when interfacing to a microcontroller which uses 8-bit transfers. Data is output following the SCLK falling edge and is valid on the SCLK rising edge. Table I.

The MODE pin is used to select the master/slave mode of operation. When the part is configured as a master, SCLK is an output while SCLK is an input when slave mode is selected. Data transfers take place with respect to this SCLK signal. The DOUT/RDY line is used for accessing data from the data register. This pin also functions as a RDY line. When a conversion is complete, DOUT/RDY goes low to indicate that data is ready to be read from the AD7782’s data register. It is reset high when a read operation from the data register is complete. It also goes high prior to the updating of the output register to indicate when not to read from the device to ensure that a data read is not attempted while the register is being updated. The digital conversion is also output on this pin. The ADC has two fully differential input channels. Pin CH1/CH2 is used to select the channels. When CH1/CH2 is low, channel AIN1(+) – AIN1(–) are selected while channel AIN2(+) – AIN2(–) are selected when CH1/CH2 is high. When the analog input channel is switched, the settling time of the part must elapse before a new valid word is available from the ADC. The output of the ADC multiplexer feeds into a high-impedance input stage of the buffer amplifier. As a result, the ADC inputs can handle significant source impedances and are tailored for direct connection to external resistive-type sensors like strain gages or Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs). The absolute input voltage range on the ADC inputs is restricted to a range between GND + 100 mV and VDD – 100 mV. Care must be taken in setting up the common-mode voltage and input voltage range so that these limits are not exceeded; otherwise there will be a degradation in linearity and noise performance. CS is used to select the device and to place the device in standby mode. When CS is taken low, the AD7782 is powered up, the PLL locks and the device initiates a conversion on the selected channel. The device will continue to convert until CS is taken high. When CS is taken high, the AD7782 is placed in standby mode minimizing the current consumption. The conversion is aborted, DOUT and SCLK are three-stated and the result in the data register is lost. Programmable Gain Amplifier The output from the buffer on the ADC is applied to the input of the on-chip programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The PGA gain range is programmed via pin RANGE. With an external 2.5 V reference applied, the PGA can be programmed to have a bipolar range of ± 160 mV (RANGE = 0) or ± 2.56 V (RANGE = 1). These are the ranges that should appear at the input to the on-chip PGA. Figure 2 shows the timing diagram for interfacing to the AD7782 with CS used to decode the part. –8– REV. 0 AD7782 Bipolar Configuration/Output Coding The analog inputs on the AD7782 accept bipolar input voltage ranges. Signals on the AIN(+) input of the ADC are referenced to the voltage on the respective AIN(–) input. For example, if AIN(–) is 2.5 V and the AD7782 is configured for an analog input range of ± 160 mV, the analog input range on the AIN(+) input is 2.34 V to 2.66 V (i.e., 2.5 V ± 0.16 V). The coding is offset binary with a negative full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 000 . . . 000, a zero differential voltage resulting in a code of 100 . . . 000, and a positive full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 111 . . . 111. The output code for any analog input voltage can be represented as follows: [( ) ] Code = 2 N −1 × AIN × GAIN / (1.024 × VREF ) + 1 Where AIN is the analog input voltage, GAIN is the PGA gain, i.e., 1 on the ±2.56 V range and 16 on the ±160 mV range and N = 24. Crystal Oscillator The AD7782 is intended for use with a 32.768 kHz watch crystal. A PLL internally locks onto a multiple of this frequency to provide a stable 4.194304 MHz clock for the ADC. The modulator sample rate is the same as the crystal oscillator frequency. The start-up time associated with 32.768 kHz crystals is typically 300 ms. In some cases, it will be necessary to connect capacitors on the crystal to ensure that it does not oscillate at overtones of its fundamental operating frequency. The values of capacitors will vary depending on the manufacturer’s specifications. Reference Input The AD7782 has a fully-differential reference input capability for the channel. The common-mode range for these differential inputs is from GND to VDD. The reference input is unbuffered and therefore excessive R-C source impedances will introduce gain errors. The reference voltage REFIN (REFIN(+) – REFIN(–)) is 2.5 V nominal for specified operation but the AD7782 is functional with reference voltages from 1 V to VDD. In applications where the excitation (voltage or current) for the transducer on the analog input also drives the reference voltage for the part, the effect of the low frequency noise in the excitation source will be removed as the application is ratiometric. If the AD7782 is used in a nonratiometric application, a low noise reference should be used. Recommended reference voltage sources for the AD7782 include the AD780, REF43, and REF192. It should also be noted that the reference inputs provide a high impedance, dynamic load. Because the input impedance of each reference input is dynamic, resistor/capacitor combinations on these inputs can cause dc gain errors, depending on the output impedance of the source that is driving the reference inputs. Reference voltage sources like those recommended above (e.g., AD780) will typically have low output impedances and are therefore tolerant to having decoupling capacitors on the REFIN(+) REV. 0 without introducing gain errors in the system. Deriving the reference input voltage across an external resistor will mean that the reference input sees a significant external source impedance. External decoupling on the REFIN pins would not be recommended in this type of circuit configuration. Grounding and Layout Since the analog inputs and reference inputs on the ADC are differential, most of the voltages in the analog modulator are commonmode voltages. The excellent common-mode rejection of the part will remove common-mode noise on these inputs. The digital filter will provide rejection of broadband noise on the power supply, except at integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency. The digital filter also removes noise from the analog and reference inputs provided these noise sources do not saturate the analog modulator. As a result, the AD7782 is more immune to noise interference than a conventional high-resolution converter. However, because the resolution of the AD7782 is so high, and the noise levels from the AD7782 so low, care must be taken with regard to grounding and layout. The printed circuit board that houses the AD7782 should be designed such that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. A minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best shielding. It is recommended that the AD7782’s GND pin be tied to the AGND plane of the system. In any layout, it is important that the user keep in mind the flow of currents in the system, ensuring that the return paths for all currents are as close as possible to the paths the currents took to reach their destinations. Avoid forcing digital currents to flow through the AGND sections of the layout. The AD7782’s ground plane should be allowed to run under the AD7782 to prevent noise coupling. The power supply lines to the AD7782 should use as wide a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals like clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, and clock signals should never be run near the analog inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. This will reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip technique is by far the best, but is not always possible with a double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed on the solder side. Good decoupling is important when using high-resolution ADCs. VDD should be decoupled with 10 µF tantalum in parallel with 0.1 µF capacitors to GND. To achieve the best from these decoupling components, they have to be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. All logic chips should be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors to DGND. –9– AD7782 OUTLINE DIMENSIONS Dimensions shown in inches and (mm). 16-Lead Thin Shrink SO Plastic (TSSOP) (RU-16) 0.201 (5.10) 0.193 (4.90) 16 9 0.177 (4.50) 0.169 (4.30) 0.256 (6.50) 0.246 (6.25) 1 8 PIN 1 0.006 (0.15) 0.002 (0.05) SEATING PLANE 0.0433 (1.10) MAX 8ⴗ 0.0256 (0.65) 0.0118 (0.30) 0.0079 (0.20) 0ⴗ BSC 0.0075 (0.19) 0.0035 (0.090) –10– 0.028 (0.70) 0.020 (0.50) REV. 0 –11– –12– PRINTED IN U.S.A.
