GENERAL DESCRIPTION PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS The AD73561 is a dual, 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive approximation ADC that operates from a single 2.5 V power supply and features throughput rates up to 5 MSPS. The part contains two ADCs, each preceded by a low noise, wide bandwidth track-andhold circuit that can handle input frequencies in excess of 200 MHz. 1. Two Complete ADC Functions Allow Simultaneous Sampling and Conversion of Two Channels. The conversion result of both channels is simultaneously available on separate data lines or in succession on one data line if only one serial port is available. 2. High Throughput with Low Power Consumption. The AD7356 offers a 5 MSPS throughput rate with 35 mW power consumption. 3. The parts feature two standard successive approximation ADCs with accurate control of the sampling instant via a CS input and once off conversion control. The conversion process and data acquisition use standard control inputs allowing for easy interfacing to microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the falling edge of CS; conversion is also initiated at this point. The conversion time is determined by the SCLK frequency. The AD7356 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very low power dissipation at high throughput rates. With 2.5 V supply and a 5 MSPS throughput rate, the part consumes 14 mA typically. The part also offers flexible power/throughput rate management when operating in normal mode as the quiescent current consumption is so low. 1 Protected by U.S. Patent No. 6,681,332 The analog input range for the parts is the differential common mode +/- Vref/2. The AD7356 has an on-chip 2.048 V reference that can be overdriven when an external reference is preferred. The AD7356 is available in a 16-lead thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP). Rev.

The VDD range for the AD7356 is 2.5V +/- 5%. The supply should be decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 µF capacitor and a 10 µF tantalum capacitor. Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin determines at what voltage the interface will operate. This pin should be decoupled to DGND. The voltage at this pin may be different to that at VDD. Chip Select. Active low logic input. This input provides the dual function of initiating conversions on the AD7356 and framing the serial data transfer. Serial Clock. Logic input. A serial clock input provides the SCLK for accessing the data from the AD7356. This clock is also used as the clock source for the conversion process. Serial Data Outputs. The data output is supplied to each pin as a serial data stream. The bits are clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. 14 SCLK falling edges are required to access the 12 bits of data from the AD7356. The data simultaneously appears on both data output pins from the simultaneous conversions of both ADCs. The data stream consists of two leading zeros followed by the 12 bits of conversion data. The data is provided MSB first. If CS is held low for 16 SCLK cycles rather than 14 on the AD7356, then two trailing zeros will appear after the 12 bits of data. If CS is held low for a further 16 SCLK cycles on either SDATAA or SDATAB , the data from the other ADC follows on the SDATA pin. This allows data from a simultaneous conversion on both ADCs to be gathered in serial format on either SDATAA or SDATAB using only one serial port. Digital Ground. This is the ground reference point for all digital circuitry on the AD7356. This pin should connect to the DGND plane of a system. The DGND and AGND voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis. Analog Ground. This is the ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7356. All analog input signals and should be referred to this AGND voltage. The AGND and DGND voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis. Reference Ground. This is the ground reference point for the reference circuitry on the AD7356 Any external reference signal should be referred to this REFGND voltage. Decoupling capacitors must be placed between this pin and the REFA and REFB pins. Reference decoupling capacitor pins. Decoupling capacitors are connected between these pins and the REFGND pin to decouple the reference buffer for each respective ADC. It is recommended to decouple the each reference pin with a 10µF capacitor. Provided the output is buffered, the on-chip reference can be taken from these pins and applied externally to the rest of the system. The nominal internal reference voltage is 2.048V and this appears at these pins. These pins can also be overdriven by an external reference. The input voltage range for the external reference is 2.048+100mV to Vdd. Analog Inputs of ADC A. These analog inputs form a fully differential pair. Analog Inputs of ADC B.

Channel to Channel Isolation Figure 4. Typical DNL Figure 7. Histogram of Codes Figure 5. Typical INL Rev. PrC | Page 8 of 18 Preliminary Technical Data AD7356 TERMINOLOGY Integral Nonlinearity (INL) The maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale, 1 LSB below the first code transition, and full scale, 1 LSB above the last code transition. Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) CMRR is defined as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at full-scale frequency, f, to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave applied to the common-mode voltage of VIN+ and VIN− of frequency fS as Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) The difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC. CMRR (dB) = 10log (Pf/PfS) where: Offset Error The deviation of the first code transition (00 . . .000) to (00 . . . 001) from the ideal (that is, AGND + 1 LSB). Offset Error Match This is the difference in offset error between the two ADCs. Gain Error The deviation of the last code transition (111 . . .110) to (111 . . . 111) from the ideal (that is, VREF – 1 LSB) after the offset error has been adjusted out. Gain Error Match The difference in gain error between the two ADCs. Channel-to-Channel Isolation Channel-to-channel isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk between channels. It is measured by applying a fullscale sine wave signal to one of the two channels and applying a 50 kHz signal to the other channel. The channel-to-channel isolation is defined as the ratio of the power of the 50 kHz signal on the converted channel to the power of the noise signal on the other channel that appears in the FFT of this channel. The noise frequency on the unselected channel varies from 40 kHz to 740 kHz. The noise amplitude is at 2 × VREF, while the signal amplitude is at 1 × VREF. See Figure 6. Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) PSRR is defined as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at full-scale frequency, f, to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave applied to the ADC VDD supply of frequency fS. The frequency of the input varies from 1 kHz to 1 MHz. PSRR (dB) = 10log(Pf/PfS) where: Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output. PfS is the power at frequency fS in the ADC output. Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time The track-and-hold amplifier returns to track mode at the end of conversion. The track-and-hold acquisition time is the time required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach its final value, within ±1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion. Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SINAD) This is the measured ratio of signal-to-noise and distortion at the output of the ADC. The signal is the rms amplitude of the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization noise. The theoretical signal-to-noise and distortion ratio for an ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by SINAD = (6.02 N + 1.76) dB Thus, for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB and for a 14 bit converter, this is 86dB. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) THD is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7356, it is defined as THD (dB ) = −20log V2 2 + V3 2 + V4 2 + V5 2 + V6 2 V1 where: V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental. V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the sixth harmonics. Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output. PfS is the power at frequency fS in the ADC output. Rev. PrC | Page 9 of 18 AD7356 Preliminary Technical Data Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise Peak harmonic or spurious noise is defined as the ratio of the rms value of the next largest component in the ADC output spectrum (up to fS/2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is a noise peak Intermodulation Distortion With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb, any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For example, the second-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), while the third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa − 2fb). The AD7356 is tested using the CCIF standard where two input frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth are used. In this case, the second-order terms are usually distanced in frequency from the original sine waves, while the third-order terms are usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies. As a result, the second- and third-order terms are specified separately. The calculation of the intermodulation distortion is as per the THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms sum of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of the sum of the fundamentals expressed in dBs. Thermal Hysteresis Thermal Hysteresis is defined as the absolute maximum change of reference output voltage after the device is cycled through temperature from either T_HYS+ = +25°C to TMAX to +25°C T_HYS– = +25°C to TMIN to +25°C It is expressed in ppm using the following equation: VHYS ( ppm) = VREF (25°C ) − VREF (T _ HYS) × 10 6 VREF (25°C ) where: VREF(25°C) = VREF at 25°C VREF(T_HYS) = Maximum change of VREF at T_HYS+ or T_HYS–. Rev. PrC | Page 10 of 18 Preliminary Technical Data AD7356 The AD7356 is a fast, dual, 12-bit, single-supply, successive approximation analog-to-digital converter. The part operates from a 2.5 V power supply and features throughput rates up to 5MSPS. The AD7356 contains two on-chip differential track-and-hold amplifiers, two successive approximation analog-to-digital converters and a serial interface with two separate data output pins. They part is housed in a 16-lead TSSOP package, offering the user considerable space-saving advantages over alternative solutions. The serial clock input accesses data from the part, but also provides the clock source for each successive approximation ADC. The AD7356 has an on-chip 2.048V reference. If an external reference is desired the internal reference can be overdriven with a reference of value ranging from (2.048V + 100mV) to Vdd. If the internal reference is to be used elsewhere in the system, then the reference output needs to be buffered first. The differential analog input range for the AD7356 is VCM ± VREF∕2. The AD7356 features power-down options to allow power saving between conversions. The power-down feature is implemented via the standard serial interface, as described in the Modes of Operation section. CONVERTER OPERATION The AD7356 has two successive approximation analog-todigital converters, each based around two capacitive DACs. Figure 8 and Figure 9 show simplified schematics of one of these ADCs in acquisition and conversion phase, respectively. The ADC is comprised of control logic, a SAR, and two capacitive DACs. In Figure 8 (the acquisition phase), SW3 is closed, SW1 and SW2 are in position A, the comparator is held in a balanced condition, and the sampling capacitor arrays may acquire the differential signal on the input.

Both inputs are disconnected once the conversion begins. The control logic and charge redistribution DACs are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge from the sampling capacitor arrays to bring the comparator back into a balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the conversion is complete. The control logic generates the ADC output code. The output impedances of the sources driving the VIN+ and VIN- pins must be matched, otherwise, the two inputs will have different settling times, resulting in errors.

The four diodes provide ESD protection for the analog inputs. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog input signals never exceed the supply rails by more than 300mV. This causes these diodes to become forwardbiased and start conducting into the substrate. These diodes can Rev.

The THD increases as the source impedance increases and performance degrades. Figure 12 shows a graph of the THD vs. the analog input signal frequency for different source impedances.

In applications where harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio are critical, the analog input should be driven from a low impedance source. Large source impedances significantly affect the ac performance of the ADC and may necessitate the use of an input buffer amplifier. The choice of the op amp will be a function of the particular application. ANALOG INPUTS Differential signals have some benefits over single-ended signals, including noise immunity based on the devices common-mode rejection and improvements in distortion performance. The amplitude of the differential signal is the difference between the signals applied to the VIN+ and VIN- pins in each differential pair (VIN+ - VIN-). VIN+ and VIN- should be simultaneously driven by two signals each of amplitude VREF that are 180° out of phase. This amplitude of the differential signal is, therefore –VREF to +VREF peak-to –peak regardless of the common mode (CM). The common mode is the average of the two signals and is therefore the voltage on which the two inputs are centered. CM = (VIN+ + VIN-)/2 This results in the span of each input being CM ± VREF/2. This voltage has to be set up externally. When a conversion takes place the common mode is rejected resulting in a virtually noise free signal of amplitude –VREF to +VREF corresponding to the digital codes of 0 to 4096 for the AD7356.

The maximum source impedance will depend on the amount of THD that can Rev. PrC | Page 12 of 18 Preliminary Technical Data AD7356 MODES OF OPERATION The mode of operation of the AD7356 is selected by controlling the (logic) state of the CS signal during a conversion. There are three possible modes of operation: normal mode, partial powerdown mode and full power-down mode. After a conversion has been initiated, the point at which CS is pulled high determines which power-down mode, if any, the device enters. Similarly, if already in a power-down mode, CS can control whether the device returns to normal operation or remains in power-down. These modes of operation are designed to provide flexible power management options. These options can be chosen to optimize the power dissipation/throughput rate ratio for the differing application requirements. NORMAL MODE This mode is intended for applications needing fastest throughput rates since the user does not have to worry about any power-up times with the AD7356 remaining fully powered at all times. Figure 14 shows the general diagram of the operation of the AD7356 in this mode. CS 10 14 LEADING ZEROS + CONVERSION RESULT 04603-029 DOUTA DOUTB PARTIAL POWER-DOWN MODE This mode is intended for use in applications where slower throughput rates are required. Either the ADC is powered down between each conversion, or a series of conversions may be performed at a high throughput rate and the ADC is then powered down for a relatively long duration between these bursts of several conversions. When the AD7356 is in partial power-down, all analog circuitry is powered down except for the on-chip reference and reference buffers. To enter partial power, the conversion process must be interrupted by bringing CS high anywhere after the 2nd falling edge of SCLK and before the 10th falling edge of SCLK, as shown in Figure 15. Once CS has been brought high in this window of SCLKs, the part enters partial power-down, the conversion that was initiated by the falling edge of CS is terminated, and SDATAA and SDATAB go back into three-state. If CS is brought high before the 2nd SCLK falling edge, the part remains in normal mode and does not power down. This avoids accidental power-down due to glitches on the CS line. CS 1 Figure 14. Normal Mode Operation 2 10 14 SCLK The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS, as described in the Serial Interface section. To ensure that the part remains fully powered up at all times, CS must remain low until at least 10 SCLK falling edges have elapsed after the falling edge of CS. If CS is brought high any time after the 10th SCLK falling edge but before the 14th SCLK falling edge, the part remains powered up, but the conversion is terminated and SDATAA and SDATAB go back into three-state. 14 serial clock cycles are required to complete the conversion and access the conversion result for the AD7356. The SDATA lines do not return to threestate after 14 SCLK cycles have elapsed, but instead do so when CS is brought high again. If CS is left low for another 2 SCLK cycles, two trailing zeros are clocked out after the data. If CS is left low for a further 14 SCLK cycles, the result for the other ADC on board is also accessed on the same SDATA line as shown in Figure 20 (see the Serial Interface section). Once 32 SCLK cycles have elapsed, the SDATA line returns to three-state on the 32nd SCLK falling edge. If CS is brought high prior to this, the SDATA line returns to three-state at that point. Thus, CS may idle low after 32 SCLK cycles until it is brought high again sometime prior to the next conversion if so desired, since the bus still returns to three-state upon completion of the dual result read. DOUTA DOUTB THREE-STATE 04603-030 1 SCLK Once a data transfer is complete and SDATAA and SDATAB have returned to three-state, another conversion can be initiated after the quiet time, tQUIET, has elapsed by bringing CS low again (assuming the required acquisition time has been allowed). Figure 15. Entering Partial Power-Down Mode To exit this mode of operation and power up the AD7356 again, a dummy conversion is performed. On the falling of CS, the device begins to power up, and continues to power up as long as CS is held low until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK. The device is fully powered up after approximately TBD μs has elapsed, and valid data results from the next conversion, as shown in Figure 16. If CS is brought high before the 2nd falling edge of SCLK, the AD7356 again goes into partial power-down. This avoids accidental power-up due to glitches on the CS line. Although the device may begin to power up on the falling edge of CS, if powers down again on the rising edge of CS. If the AD7356 is already in partial power-down mode and CS is brought high between the 2nd and 10th falling edges of SCLK, the device enters full power-down mode. FULL POWER-DOWN MODE This mode is intended for use in applications where throughput rates slower than those in the partial power-down mode are required, as power-up from a full power-down takes substantially longer than that from a partial power-down. This Rev. PrC | Page 13 of 18 AD7356 Preliminary Technical Data has been brought high in this window of SCLKs, the part completely powers down. mode is more suited to applications where a series of conversions performed at a relatively high throughput rate are followed by a long period of inactivity and thus, power-down. When the AD7356 is in full power-down, all analog circuitry is powered down. Full power-down is entered in a similar way as partial power-down, except the timing sequence shown in Figure 15 must be executed twice. The conversion process must be interrupted in a similar fashion by bringing CS high anywhere after the 2nd falling edge of SCLK and before the 10th falling edge of SCLK. The device enters partial power down at this point. Note that it is not necessary to complete the 14/16 SCLKs once CS has been brought high to enter a power-down mode. To exit full power-down mode and power-up the AD7356, a dummy conversion is performed, as when powering up from partial power-down. One the falling edge of CS , the device begins to power up, as long as CS is held low until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK. The required power-up time must elapse before a conversion can be initiated, as shown in Figure 18. To reach full power-down, the next conversion cycle must be interrupted in the same way, as shown in Figure 17. Once CS THE PART IS FULLY POWERED UP; SEE POWER-UP TIMES SECTION.

Figure 19 shows the detailed timing diagram for serial interfacing to the AD7356. The serial clock provides the conversion clock and controls the transfer of information from the AD7356 during conversion. A minimum of 14 serial clock cycles are required to perform the conversion process and to access data from one conversion on either data line of the AD7356. CS going low provides the leading zero to be read in by the microcontroller or DSP. The remaining data is then clocked out by subsequent SCLK falling edges, beginning with a second leading zero. Thus, the first falling clock edge on the serial clock has the leading zero provided and also clocks out the second leading zero. The 12-bit result then follows with the final bit in the data transfer valid on the 14th falling edge, having being clocked out on the previous (13th) falling edge. In applications with a slower SCLK, it may be possible to read in data on each SCLK rising edge depending on the SCLK frequency. The first rising edge of SCLK after the CS falling edge would have the second leading zero provided, and the 13th rising SCLK edge would have DB0 provided. The CS signal initiates the data transfer and conversion process. The falling edge of CS puts the track and hold into hold mode at which point the analog input is sampled and the bus is taken out of three-state. The conversion is also initiated at this point and requires a minimum of 14 SCL to complete. Once 13 SCLK falling edges have elapsed, the track and hold will go back into track on the next SCLK rising edge, as shown in Figure 19 at point B. If a 16 bit data transfer is used on the AD7356, then two trailing zeros will appear after the final LSB. On the rising edge of CS, the conversion will be terminated and SDATAA and SDATAB will go back into three-state. If CS is not brought high, but is instead held low for a further 14 SCLK cycles on SDATAA, the data from the conversion on ADCB will be output on SDATAA. Likewise, is CS is held low for a further 14 SCLK cycles on SDATAA, the data from the conversion on ADCA will be output on SDATAB. This is illustrated in Figure 20 where the case for SDATAA is shown.
