input combined with the power and cost savings over previously
available solutions will enable new designs in communications,
imaging and medical applications. The AD1672 provides both
reference output and reference input pins allowing the onboard
reference to serve as a system reference. An external reference
can also be chosen to suit the dc accuracy and temperature drift
requirements of the application. The digital output data is presented in a straight binary output format for the unipolar input
ranges of 0 V to 2.5 V and 0 V to 5.0 V. For the bipolar input
range of –2.5 V to +2.5 V, the digital output data is presented in
an offset binary format. An out-of-range (OTR) signal indicates
an overflow condition. It can be used with the most significant
bit to determine low or high overflow.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT
The AD1672 is a monolithic, single supply 12-bit, 3 MSPS
analog-to-digital converter with an on-chip, high performance
sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) and voltage reference. The
AD1672 uses a multistage pipelined architecture with output
error correction logic to provide 12-bit accuracy at 3 MSPS data
rates and guarantees no missing codes over the full operating
temperature range. The AD1672 combines a high performance
BiCMOS process and a novel architecture to achieve its high
performance levels.
The AD1672 offers a complete single-chip sampling 12-bit,
3 MSPS analog-to-digital conversion function in a 28-pin
PLCC package.
The fast settling input SHA is equally suited for both multiplexed systems that switch negative to positive full-scale voltage
levels in successive channels and sampling single-channel inputs
at frequencies up to the Nyquist rate. The AD1672’s wideband
Ease-of-Use—The single supply AD1672 is complete with SHA
voltage reference and pin strappable input ranges. It is compatible with a wide range of amplifiers.
The AD1672 at 240 mW consumes a fraction of the power of
presently available solutions and provides exceptional performance relative to other monolithic solutions.
OUT OF RANGE (OTR)—The OTR output bit indicates
when the input signal is beyond the AD1672’s input range.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
APERTURE DELAY
INTEGRAL NONLINEARITY ERROR (INL)
Aperture delay is a measure of the Sample-and-Hold (SHA)
performance and is measured from the rising edge of the clock
input to when the input signal is held for conversion.
Integral nonlinearity error refers to the deviation of each individual
code from a line drawn from “negative full scale” through
“positive full scale.” The point used as “negative full scale”
occurs 1/2 LSB before the first code transition (all zeros to only
the LSB on). “Positive full scale” is defined as a level 1 1/2 LSB
beyond the last code transition (to all ones). The deviation is
measured from the middle of each particular code to the true
straight line.
OVERVOLTAGE RECOVERY TIME
Overvoltage recovery time is defined as that amount of time
required for the ADC to achieve a specified accuracy after an
overvoltage (50% greater than full-scale range), measured from
the time the overvoltage signal reenters the converter’s range.
DIFFERENTIAL LINEARITY ERROR (DNL, NO MISSING
CODES)
DYNAMIC SPECIFICATIONS
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Thus every
code must have a finite width. Guaranteed no missing codes to
12-bit resolution indicates that all 4096 codes must be present
over all operating ranges.
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the
Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The
value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D) RATIO
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)
UNIPOLAR OFFSET ERROR
In the unipolar mode, the first transition should occur at a level
1/2 LSB above analog common. Unipolar offset is defines as
the deviation of the actual from that point.
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value of the measured input signal and is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels.
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD)
The first transition should occur for an analog value 1/2 LSB
above nominal negative full scale. The last transition should
occur for an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal full
scale. Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference
between first and last code transitions and the ideal difference
between first and last code transitions.
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any device with nonlinearities will create distortion products,
of order (m + n), at sum and difference frequencies of
mfa ± nfb, where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3. . . . Intermodulation terms
are those for which m or n is not equal to zero. For example,
the second order terms are (fa + fb) and (fa – fb) and the third
order terms are (2 fa + fb), (2 fa – fb), (fa + 2fb) and (2 fb – fa).
The IMD products are expressed as the decibel ratio of the rms
sum of the measured input signals to the rms sum of the distortion terms. The two signals are of equal amplitude and the peak
value of their sums is –0.5 dB from full-scale. The IMD products are normalized to a 0 dB input signal.
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION
FULL-POWER BANDWIDTH
One of the effects of power supply error on the performance of
the device will be a small change in gain. The specifications
show the maximum change in the converter’s full scale as the
supplies are varied from minimum to maximum values.
The full-power bandwidth is that input frequency at which the
amplitude of the reconstructed fundamental is reduced by 3 dB
for a full-scale input.
BIPOLAR ZERO ERROR
In the bipolar mode, the major carry transition should occur for
an analog value 1/2 LSB below analog common. Zero error is
defined as the deviation of the actual transition from that point.
GAIN ERROR
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE
APERTURE JITTER
Aperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successive
samples and is manifested as noise on the input to the A/D.
The difference, in dB, between the rms amplitude of the input
signal and the peak spurious signal.
CODE TRANSITION NOISE
The effects of noise are to introduce an uncertainty in the precise determination of the analog input values at which the output code transitions take place, and, in effect, to increase or
reduce the quantization band. Code transition noise describes
the quantization band variation resulting from noise in terms of
rms LSBs.

The AD1672 is implemented using a 4-stage pipelined multiple
flash architecture. The flash resolution for the stages is 4-4-3-4
with one-bit of overlap used between stages for error correction.
A low noise sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) acquires a fullscale, single-ended input to 12-bit accuracy within 167 ns. A
4-bit approximation of the input is made by the first flash converter, and an accurate analog representation of this four-bit estimate is generated by a digital-to-analog (DAC) converter.
This approximation is subtracted from the SHA output to produce a remainder, or residue. This residue is then sampled and
held by the second SHA, and a 4-bit approximation is generated
and subtracted by the second stage. Once the second SHA goes
into hold, the first stage goes back into sample mode to acquire a
new input signal.
The third stage which has 3 bits of resolution is similar to the
first and second stage in that each stage consists of a SHA, flash
ADC, and a DAC. Each stage preforms a 4- (or 3-) bit approximation/subtraction operation with the residue of each stage
being passed on to the next stage. The fourth or last stage consists only of a 4-bit flash ADC which converts the final residue.
The 15 output bits from the 4 flash converters are accumulated
in the correction logic block, which adds the bits together using
the appropriate correction algorithm, to produce the 12 bit
output word. The digital output, together with the overrange
indicator (OTR), is latched into an output buffer to drive the
output pins.
The additional SHA inserted in each stage of the AD1672 architecture allows pipelining of the conversion. In essence, the converter is converting multiple inputs simultaneously, processing
them through the converter chain serially. This means that

while the converter is capable of capturing a new input sample
every clock cycle, it actually takes 2 1/2 clock cycles for the conversion to be fully processed and appear at the output. This
“pipeline delay” is often referred to as latency, and is not a concern in most applications, however there are some cases where it
may be a consideration. For example, some applications call for
the A/D converter to be placed in a high speed feedback loop,
where its input is servoed to provide a desired result at the digital output (e.g., offset calibration or zero restoration in video
applications). In these cases the clock cycle delay through the
pipeline must be accounted for in the loop stability calculations.
Also, because the converter is working on three conversions simultaneously major disruptions to the part (such as a large
glitch on the supplies or reference) may corrupt three data
samples. Finally, there will be a minimum clock rate below
which the SHA droop corrupts the signal in the pipeline. In the
case of the AD1672, this minimum clock rate is 20 kHz at
25°C.
The AD1672 clock circuitry uses both edges of the clock in its
internal timing circuitry (see specification page for exact timing
requirements). The AD1672 samples the analog input on the
rising edge of the clock input. During the clock low time (between the falling edge and rising edge of the clock), the input
SHA is in sample mode; during the clock high time it is in hold.
System disturbances just prior to the rising edge of the clock
may cause the part to acquire the wrong value, and should be
minimized. While the part uses both clock edges for its timing,
jitter is only a significant issue for the rising edge of the clock
(see CLOCK INPUT section).

Figure 9 shows the equivalent analog input of the AD1672. The
input SHA and associated resistor network topology can be easily configured for either unipolar (0 V to 2.5 V, 0 V to 5.0 V) or
bipolar (–2.5 V to 2.5 V) input signals as shown in Figure 10.
The nominal input resistance, RIN, of the AD1672 is 2 kΩ for a
2.5 V span and 4 kΩ for a 5 V span. The circuit topology both
level shifts and inverts the analog input for the various input
spans.

In applications requiring dc coupling, a buffer amplifier is recommended for driving the AD1672 input. Any source resistance will contribute to both gain and offset error due to its
interaction with the AD1672’s input resistance. The particular
application and signal input range will determine how the buffer
amplifier is configured. For example, in dc precision applications, the buffer amplifier can be configured for convenient gain
and offset adjustment as shown in Figure 12. In spectral
analysis/signal processing applications, the buffer amplifier can
be configured as a 2nd order antialiasing filter in a Sallen-Key
or Multiple-Feedback topology as shown in Figure 13.

In applications where ac coupling of the analog input signal is
appropriate such as in a single supply system, the user can
capacitively couple the input signal for a 2.5 V or 5 V span thus
removing any preceding system dc offsets. Figure 11 shows the
proper configurations of the AD1672 for ac coupling. Maintaining the specifications outlined in the data sheet requires careful selection of the component values. The most important
concern is that the f –3 dB high pass corner is a function of C1 and
C2 in parallel with RIN. The f -3 dB point can be approximated

In imaging and multiplexed data acquisition applications, the
AD1672’s wide input bandwidth facilitates rapid acquisition of
transient input signals: the input SHA can typically settle to 12bit accuracy from a full scale input step in less than 150 ns. Figure 14 illustrates the typical acquisition of a full scale input step.
For amplifiers that are powered by supplies greater than
6.5 V, it is recommended that a clamping circuit be included at
the input of AD1672. This circuit limits the input voltage to
6.5 V under a fault condition.

The selection of the buffer is of particular concern in preserving
the performance of the AD1672. The total output referrednoise contribution of the selected amplifier should be less than
200 µV rms to preserve the AD1672’s noise performance. The
amplifiers harmonic distortion should be 12 dB or better in performance than the AD1672 over the bandwidth and signal level
range of the particular application. The selected amplifier
should settle to 0.01% within 70 ns.

The AD1672 will contribute its own wideband thermal noise.
As a result of the integrated wideband noise (1/4 LSB rms,
referred-to-input), applying a dc analog input produces more
than one code at the output. A histogram analysis of the
AD1672 with a dc input is shown in Figure 15. It shows a bell
shaped curve consistent with the Gaussian nature of the thermal
noise. This histogram will be approximately 3 codes wide,
depending on how well the input is centered on a given code
and how many samples are taken. Figure 16 illustrates the
AD1672’s transition noise.

REFERENCE INPUT
REFERENCE OUTPUT
The nominal reference input is 2.5 V, taken with respect to
REFCOM. The reference input pin (REFIN) can be connected
to the reference output pin (REFOUT) or a standard external
+2.5 Volt reference can be selected to meet specific system requirements. Figure 17 shows the AD1672’s REFIN being
driven from an external precision voltage reference such as the
REF192. If an external reference is used, REFOUT can be effectively disabled by tying it directly to the positive supply voltage VCC. Note that if the reference is changed during a conversion,
all three conversions in the pipeline will be invalidated.
The AD1672 includes an onboard +2.5 V curvature compensated bandgap reference that has been laser trimmed for both
absolute value and temperature drift. The reference must be
externally compensated with a capacitor of 1 µF or greater from
REFOUT to REFCOM.
The nominal 2.5 V reference input is rescaled to 1.25 V via a
resistor divider network as shown in Figure 18. The nominal
resistance of this resistor network is 8 kΩ. Table IV summarizes various 2.5 V references for use with the AD1672 (see
REFERENCE OUTPUT section).
The reference is specified to provide an additional load current
up to 500 µA. For large dynamic loads and/or external loads
greater than 500 µA, an external buffer amplifier or pull-up resistor is required. If a pull-up resistor is used, its value should
be selected such that REFOUT will not be required to sink any
current under all operating conditions. Figure 19 illustrates the
load regulation of the reference. The power supply rejection of
the reference is better than 0.2 % of FSR at dc.

REFERENCE NOISE REDUCTION
Figure 18 shows the proper connection of two external 1 µF
capacitors, CNR1 and CNR2, associated with the two noise reduction nodes NCOMP1 and NCOMP2 (Pins 25 and 26) of
the AD1672. Although these noise reduction capacitors, CNR, are
not required for stability, the most optimum noise and distortion performance will be attained with a 1 µF ceramic capacitor connected
from each Noise Reduction node to ACOM. CNR1 is associated with
the output of the DAC amp and is required for optimum distortion performance and SHA settling time. It provides a low
source impedance for signal-dependent, transient currents associated with this node. CNR2 reduces the noise contribution from
the reference buffer amplifier.
The AD1672 output data is presented in positive true straight
binary for both the 0 V to 2.5 V and 0 V to 5 V unipolar input
ranges and positive true offset binary for the ± 2.5 V bipolar
range. Table V indicates the output data formats for the three
analog input ranges. Users requiring twos complement encoding
for the ± 2.5 V range may simply invert the MSB (Pin 13).

The AD1672’s CMOS digital output drivers can be configured
to interface with +5 V or +3.3 V logic families by setting
DRVDD to +5 V or +3.3 V respectively . They are also sized to
provide sufficient output current to drive a wide variety of logic
families. However, large drive currents tend to cause glitches
on the supplies and may effect S/(N+D) performance. Applications requiring the AD1672 to drive large capacitive loads or
large fanout may require additional decoupling capacitors on
DRVDD and DVDD. In extreme cases, external buffers or
latches may be required.
R
CLK
6MHz
Figure 22. Divide-by-Two Clock Circuit
In this case, a 6 MHz clock is divided by 2 to produce the 3 MHz
clock input for the AD1672. In this configuration, the duty
cycle of the 6 MHz clock is irrelevant.
The input circuitry for the CLOCK pin is designed to accommodate CMOS inputs. The quality of the logic input, particularly the rising edge, is critical in realizing the best possible jitter
performance for the part: the faster the rising edge, the better
the jitter performance.
The offset of the AD1672 is sensitive to the rising edge (i.e.,
dV/dt) seen at CLOCK due to clock feedthrough. An additional offset component becomes noticeable for rise times below
10 ns and causes an additional few LSBs of offset. The amount
of additional offset is dependent on dV/dt of the rising edge and
hence will remain constant for nonvarying rising edges. For
applications which are sensitive to a change in offset due to a
variation in the rise edge, the CLOCK rise time may be reduced
by selecting a slower logic family or installing a 1 kΩ resistor between the clock driver and CLOCK of the AD1672.
As a result, careful selection of the logic family for the clock
driver, as well as the fanout and capacitive load on the clock
line, is important. Jitter-induced errors become more predominant at higher frequency, large amplitude inputs, where the
input slew rate is greatest.

An out-of-range condition exists when the analog input voltage
is beyond the input range (0 V to +2.5 V, 0 V to +5.0 V, ± 2.5 V)
of the converter. OTR (Pin 15) is a digital output which is updated along with the data output pertaining to the particular
sampled analog input voltage. Hence, OTR has the same pipeline delay (latency) as the digital data. It is set low when the
analog input voltage is within the analog input range. It is set
HIGH and will remain HIGH when the analog input voltage
exceeds the input range by typically 1/2 LSB from the center of
the ± full-scale output codes. OTR will remain HIGH until the
analog input is within the input range and another conversion is
completed. By logical ANDing OTR with the MSB and its
complement, overrange high or underrange low conditions can
be detected. Table IV is a truth table for the over/under range
circuit in Figure 20 which uses NAND gates. Systems requiring programmable gain conditioning prior to the AD1672 can
immediately detect an out-of-range condition, thus eliminating
gain selection iterations. Also, OTR can be used for digital offset and gain calibration (see Gain and Offset Adjustment).

Although the AD1672 is designed to support a sampling rate of

CLOCK INPUT
The AD1672 internal timing control uses the two edges of the
clock input to generate a variety of internal timing signals. The
clock input must meet or exceed the minimum specified pulse
width high and low (tCH and tCL) specifications of 167 ns to
maintain the AD1672’s rated performance. At a clock rate of
3 MSPS, the clock input must have a 50% duty cycle to meet
this timing requirement. For clock rates below 3 MSPS, the
duty cycle may deviate from 50% to the extent that both tch and
tcl are satisfied. One way to minimize the tolerance of a 50%
duty cycle clock is to divide down a clock of higher frequency,
as shown in Figure 22.

GROUNDING AND POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
RULES
Proper grounding and decoupling should be a primary design
objective in any high speed, high resolution system. The AD1672
features separate analog and digital supply and ground pins to
optimize the management of analog and digital ground currents
in a system. In general, VCC, the analog supply, should be decoupled to ACOM, the analog common, as close to the chip as
physically possible. Similarly, VDD, the digital supply, should be
decoupled to DCOM as close to the chip as physically as possible. DRVDD, the digital supply for the output drivers should
be decoupled to DRCOM which is also connected to the digital
ground plane.
Figure 31, the AD1672/EB evaluation board schematic, demonstrates the recommended decoupling strategy for the supply
pins. Note that in extremely noisy environments, a more elaborate supply filtering scheme may be necessary. Figure 25 shows

The AD1672 is designed to minimize the code dependent current at REFCOM, therefore reducing input dependent analog
ground voltage drops and errors. The majority of code dependent ground current is diverted to ACOM.
The digital activity on the AD1672 chip falls into two general
categories: CMOS correction logic, and CMOS output drivers.
The internal correction logic draws relatively small surges of
current which flow through VDD and DCOM. The output
drivers draw large current impulses while the output bits are
changing. The size and duration of these currents is a function
of the load on the output bits: large capacitive loads are to be
avoided. The output drivers are supplied through DRVDD and
DRCOM. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor for decoupling the driver
supply, DRVDD, is appropriate for a reasonable capacitive load
on the digital outputs (typically 20 pF on each pin). Applications involving greater digital loads should consider increasing
the digital decoupling proportionately.
For those applications that require a single +5 V supply for both
the analog and digital supply, a clean analog supply may be
generated using the circuit shown in Figure 27. The circuit
consists of a differential LC filter with separate power supply
and return lines. Lower noise can be attained using low ESR
(Equivalent Series Resistance) type electrolytic and tantalum
capacitors.

GAIN AND OFFSET ADJUSTMENT
Both gain and offset errors may be trimmed with external calibration circuits based on a potentiometer or a DAC. Digital
calibration circuits using a DAC offers greater flexibility and
can be programmed for various operating conditions. The following digital calibration circuits are based on the DAC08
which is a low cost, 8-bit current output DAC with 85 ns settling time performance. Different adjustment spans and resolution may be achieved by judicious selection of the resistors in
the circuit.
Figure 28 shows an offset correction circuit for the unipolar
input ranges of 0 V to 2.5 V and 0 V to 5.0 V. The complementary current outputs of the DAC08 provide a bipolar adjustment
range at the output of the op amp if RS is made equal to RF/G.
G is the noninverting gain of the op amp and is equal to
1 + RF/RA. REFOUT divided by RIN sets the full-scale current
output, IFS, for the DAC08 Note, RP is a pull-up resistor used
to source additional current if IFS is greater than 500 µA. The
bipolar voltage adjustment span at the output of the op amp is
equal to IFS × RF. RI isolates the op amp from the DAC08
output capacitance. Note, that the values of these resistors can
be optimized for any circuit requirement or adjustment span
since they are not uniquely defined for any given voltage span.
RF
RS
The AD1672 is factory trimmed to minimize gain, offset and
linearity errors. In some applications, the gain and offset errors
need to be externally trimmed to zero. Since the gain and offset
errors of the AD1672 are interdependent, an iterative process is
required to trim both errors. The OTR pin can be monitored to
trim the offset and gain errors to within 1/2 LSB of negative and
positive full-scale (i.e., –FS and +FS) respectively. In this case,
the calibration procedure would be to iterate between –FS and
+FS voltage levels which are applied to the input of the AD1672
and adjust the offset and gain until OTR toggles at both –FS
and +FS.

AD1672 EVALUATION BOARD GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD1672/EB is an evaluation board for the AD1672 12-bit
3 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Figure 31 shows the
schematic for the AD1672/EB evaluation board. Careful attention
to layout and circuit design combined with analog and digital prototyping areas allows the user to easily and effectively evaluate the
AD1672 in any application requiring high resolution, high speed
conversion.
The analog input to the AD1672/EB may be driven directly or
via an onboard buffer amplifier. The AD1672/EB contains an
8-bit DAC which can be easily configured for input offset adjustment or for reconstruction of the digital output. An optional
external voltage reference is included for greater dc precision

and/or offset adjustment purposes. Onboard data buffers are
also included. The AD1672/EB requires an external clock
which is applied from a user’s bench or generated from a circuit
built on the prototyping area. A standard 40-pin IDC-connector
provides access for the digital outputs from the AD1672/EB. The
user must also provide a digital +5 V power supply and analog
± 5 V supplies to operate the AD1672/EB.
The AD1672’s analog input range can be configured for
0 V–2.5 V, 0 V–5 V, or ± 2.5 V by installing only one of the four
jumpers, JP5–JP7, as outline in Table VII.
OPERATING PROCEDURE AND FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
Power
Apply power to the AD1672/EB by attaching banana plugs to
the appropriate banana jacks on the printed circuit board (Figure 31). The +VCC analog supply should be +5 V (± 5%) and
be capable of supplying 70 mA. The –VEE analog supply should
be –5 V (± 5%) and be capable of supplying 20 mA. The +VDD
digital supply should be +5 V (± 5%) and be capable of supplying 12 mA (not including any additional current required by the
digital load).
The power supply pin for the onboard output drivers internal to
the AD1672 (DRVDD–Pin 14) can be driven directly by the
digital supply, +VDD, by installing JP10 or may be driven via a
separate supply by removing JP10 and driving the test point,
TP5. The separate supply option allows the user to interface
with +5 V or +3.3 V (± 5%) logic families.
JP1
To provide +VCC supply to both U3 (DAC08) and U1
(op amp), attach jumper JP1.
JP10 To provide +5 V (+/-5%) supply to DRVDD pin of
AD1672 via +VDD or separate supply. To provide power
to DRVDD pin via +VDD, install JP10. To provide power
to DRVDD pin via separate supply, remove JP10 and connect external supply to test point TP5.
Analog Inputs
The BNC jack, AIN (J1), accepts voltage inputs that comply
with the analog input requirements of the AD1672. It is terminated with a 49.9 Ω resistor (R1) located on the componentside of the evaluation board. Remove and/or replace this
resistor with other values in order to match different cable impedances. The AD1672 analog input can be directly driven via
AIN (J1) by installing JP2 and removing JP3 or it can be driven
via an amplifier (U1) by installing JP3 and removing JP2. The

Reference
An external 2.5 V voltage reference, U2, is also included on the
AD1672/EB to provide the option for greater dc precision than
the AD1672’s internal reference. The external reference also
provides the proper biasing currents for the offset adjustment
circuitry consisting of U3. To use the external voltage reference
for the AD1672, install JP9 and remove JP4. To use the AD1672’s
internal voltage reference, install JP4 and remove JP9.
JP4
Installing JP4 and removing JP9 selects the AD1672’s
internal reference.
JP9
Installing JP9 and removing JP4 selects the external
reference, U2.
Offset Adjustment/Reconstruction DAC
An 8-bit complementary current output DAC08, U3, allows for
either offset adjustment of the analog input or reconstruction of
the AD1672 digital output for simple evaluation purposes. The
offset adjustment option is implemented by installing both JP3
and JP8. Note that JP5, JP6 and JP7 should be removed so
that the AD1672 is configured for a 0 V–5 V range.
The DAC08 can also be configured to reconstruct the digital
output of the AD1672 using its digital output for the DAC08’s
digital input. The output of the user supplied ribbon cable used
to interface with the 40-pin IDC connector (E1) can be connected directly to the connector U8, hence recirculating the
eight most significant digital output bits of the AD1672. In this
configuration, JP8 would be removed and the reconstructed
waveform (± 50 mV p-p) can be monitored via test point TP4.
JP8
Selects inverting or noninverting gain of one for the amplifier U1. When S4 is in position A, the noninverting
mode is selected. When S1 is in position B, the inverting
mode is selected.

Installing JP8 and removing JP5, JP6 and JP7 selects the
offset adjustment option. Removing JP8 and connecting
E1 to U8 via an external user-supplied ribbon cable
selects the reconstruction option.
AD1672
A summary of the test point designators and a parts list is given
in Table VIII and IX.
Clock Input
A 49.9 Ω resistor (R9) terminates this input. Remove and/or
replace this resistor with other values in order to match different
cable impedances. An external sample clock must be provided
to the BNC connector labeled CLK (J5). The rising or falling
edge of CLK can be selected to trigger a conversion and is available to the user via the connector E1 by configuring S1 and S3.
Table VIII. Summary of Test Point Designators
The CLK INPUT has two modes of operation which is
determined by the position of S5. When S5 is in Position B, the
CLK is directly coupled to U5, a Hex inverter with Schmitt trigger inputs. The requisite input levels are CMOS-compatible in
this mode. When S5 is in Position A, the CLK is ac coupled via
C23 and level shifted via R10, R12, and R13. This mode is
used to generate a low jitter clock input for the AD1672 with a
tunable duty cycle. The input to CLK (J5) is a filtered 5 V p-p
sine wave at the desired sampling frequency. The duty cycle
may be adjusted via R10.
S1
Selects the rising or falling edge of CLK to initiate a conversion. When S1 is in Position A, the falling edge of
CLK is selected. When S1 is in Position B, the rising
edge of CLK is selected.
S3
Selects the rising or falling edge of CLK made available to
the user via the connector via E1, Pin 33. When S3 is in
Position A, the rising edge of CLK is selected. When S1
is in Position B, the falling edge of CLK is selected.
S5
Selects CLK INPUT mode of operation. If S5 is in Position A, the low jitter, ac coupled mode of operation is selected. If S5 is Position B, the dc coupled mode
of operation is selected.
Digital Inputs/Outputs
The digital outputs of the AD1672 are buffered and connected
to a 40-pin IDC connector (E1). The digital output can be either in a straight binary or twos complement format by configuring S2. S2 selects the MSB output or its complement. The
Out-of-Range (OTR) output is available on test point, OTR.
S2
Selects either the MSB or its complement for either
straight binary or twos complement digital output data
formatting, respectively. When S2 is in Position A, the
straight binary format is selected. When S2 is in Position
B, the twos complement format is selected.

The AD1672-EB is a 4-layer evaluation board consisting of
separate ground and power plane layouts. Separate ground and
power planes have several advantages for high speed layouts.
(For further information outlining these advantages, see the
application note “Design and Layout of a Video Graphics System for Reduced EMI” [E1309] available from Analog Devices
[(617) 461-3392].) The ground planes are separated into analog and digital planes that are joined together under the AD1672.
The AD1672 should be treated as an analog component and a
common ground connection should be made underneath the
AD1672 despite some pins being labeled “digital” and some as
“analog” ground plane.
