DESCRIPTIO
The LTC ®1609 is a 200ksps, serial sampling 16-bit A/D
converter that draws only 65mW (typical) from a single 5V
supply. This easy-to-use device includes a sample-andhold, a precision reference, a switched capacitor successive approximation A/D and trimmed internal clock.
Sample Rate: 200ksps
Input Ranges
Unipolar: 0V to 10V, 0V to 5V and 0V to 4V
Bipolar: ±10V, ±5V and ±3.3V
Guaranteed No Missing Codes
Serial I/O
Single 5V Supply
Power Dissipation: 65mW Typ
Power Down Mode: 50µW
SNR: 87dB Typ
Operates with Internal or External Reference
28-Pin SSOP and 20-Pin SO Packages
Improved 2nd Source to ADS7809 and AD977A
The input range is specified for bipolar inputs of ±10V,
±5V and ±3.3V and unipolar inputs of 0V to 10V, 0V to 5V
and 0V to 4V. Maximum DC specs include ±2LSB INL and
16-bit no missing codes over temperature. It has a typical
signal-to-noise ratio of 87dB.
The ADC has a high speed serial interface. The serial
output data can be clocked out using either the internal
serial shift clock or be clocked out by an external shift
clock. A separate convert start input (R/C) and a data ready
signal (BUSY) ease connections to FIFOs, DSPs and
microprocessors.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground with DGND, AGND1
and AGND2 wired together (unless otherwise noted).
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below ground or above VANA =
VDIG = VDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can
handle input currents of greater than 100mA below ground or above VDD
without latch-up.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below ground, they will be
clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents of
90mA below ground without latchup. These pins are not clamped to VDD.
Note 5: VDD = 5V, fSAMPLE = 200kHz, tr = tf = 5ns unless otherwise
specified.
Note 6: Linearity, offset and full-scale specifications apply for a VIN input
with respect to ground.
Note 7: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual end points of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.

Note 9: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 10: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 11: With CS low the falling R/C edge starts a conversion. If R/C
returns high at a critical point during the conversion it can create small
errors. For best results ensure that R/C returns high within 1.2µs after the
start of the conversion.
Note 12: As measured with fixed 1% resistors shown in Figures 3a and
3b. Adjustable to zero with external potentiometer.
Note 13: Full-scale error is the worst-case of –FS or +FS untrimmed
deviation from ideal first and last code transitions, divided by the transition
voltage (not divided by the full-scale range) and includes the effect of
offset error. For unipolar input ranges full-scale error is the deviation of
the last code transition from ideal divided by the transiton voltage and
includes the effect of offset error.
Note 14: All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale ±5V input.
Note 15: Full-power bandwidth is defined as full-scale input frequency at
which a signal-to-(noise + distortion) degrades to 60dB or 10 bits of
accuracy.
Note 16: Recovers to specified performance after (2 • FS) input
overvoltage.
Note 17: When data is shifted out during a conversion, with an external
data clock, complete the process within 1.2µs from the start of the
conversion (BUSY falling). This will help keep any external disturbances
from causing an error in the conversion result.

R1IN (Pin 1/Pin 1): Analog Input. See Table 1 and Figure␣ 1
for input range connections.
low, 16 clock pulses are output during each conversion.
The pin will stay low between conversions.
AGND1 (Pin 2/Pin 2): Analog Ground. Tie to analog ground
plane.
DATA (Pin 13/Pin 17): Serial Data Output. The output data
is synchronized to the DATACLK and the format is determined by SB/BTC. In the external shift clock mode, after 16
bits of data have been shifted out and CS is low and R/C is
high, the level in the TAG pin will be outputted. This can be
used to daisy-chain the serial data output from several
LTC1609s. If EXT/INT is low, the output data is valid on
both the rising and falling edge of the internal shift clock
which is outputted on DATACLK. In between conversions,
DATA will stay at the level of the TAG input when the
conversion was started.
R2IN (Pin 3/Pin 3): Analog Input. See Table 1 and Figure␣ 1
for input range connections.
R3IN (Pin 4/Pin 4): Analog Input. See Table 1 and Figure␣ 1
for input range connections.
NC (28-Pin SSOP Only—Pins 5, 8, 10, 11, 18, 20, 22,
23): No Connect.
CAP (Pin 5/Pin 6): Reference Buffer Output. Bypass with
2.2µF tantalum capacitor.
REF (Pin 6/Pin 7): 2.5V Reference Output. Bypass with
2.2µF tantalum capacitor. Can be driven with an external
reference.
AGND2 (Pin 7/Pin 9): Analog Ground. Tie to analog
ground plane.
SB/BTC (Pin 8/Pin 12): Select straight binary or two’s
complement data output format. Tie pin high for straight
binary or tie low for two’s complement format.
EXT/INT (Pin 9/Pin 13): Select external or internal clock
for shifting out the output data. Tie the pin high to
synchronize the output data to the clock that is applied to
the DATACLK pin. If the pin is tied low, a convert command
will start transmitting the output data from the previous
conversion synchronized to 16 clock pulses that are
outputted on the DATACLK pin.
TAG (Pin 14/Pin 19): Tag input is used in the external clock
mode. If EXT/INT is high, digital inputs applied to TAG will
be shifted out on DATA delayed 16 DATACLK pulses as
long as CS is low and R/C is high.
R/C (Pin 15/Pin 21): Read/Convert Input. With CS low, a
falling edge on R/C puts the internal sample-and-hold into
the hold state and starts a conversion. With CS low, a
rising edge on R/C enables the serial output data.
CS (Pin 16/Pin 24): Chip Select. Internally OR’d with R/C.
With R/C low, a falling edge on CS will initiate a conversion.
With R/C high, a falling edge on CS will enable the serial
output data.
DGND (Pin 10/Pin 14): Digital Ground.
BUSY (Pin 17/Pin 25): Output Shows Converter Status. It
is low when a conversion is in progress. Data valid on the
rising edge of BUSY. CS or R/C must be high when BUSY
rises or another conversion will start without time for
signal acquisition.
SYNC (Pin 11/Pin 15): Sync Output. If EXT/INT is high,
either a rising edge on R/C with CS low or a falling edge on
CS with R/C high will output a pulse on SYNC synchronized to the external clock applied on the DATACLK pin.
PWRD (Pin 18/Pin 26): Power Down Input. If the pin is tied
high, conversions are inhibited and power consumption is
reduced (10µA typ). Results from the previous conversion
are maintained in the output shift register.
DATACLK (Pin 12/Pin 16): Either an input or an output
depending on the level set on EXT/INT. The output data is
synchronized to this clock. When EXT/INT is high an
external shift clock is applied to this pin. If EXT/INT is taken
VANA (Pin 19/Pin 27): 5V Analog Supply. Bypass to ground
with a 0.1µF ceramic and a 10µF tantalum capacitor.
VDIG (Pin 20/Pin 28): 5V Digital Supply. Connect directly
to VANA.

Conversion Details
The LTC1609 uses a successive approximation algorithm
and an internal sample-and-hold circuit to convert an
analog signal to a 16-bit serial output. The ADC is complete
with a precision reference and an internal clock. The
control logic provides easy interface to microprocessors
and DSPs. (Please refer to the Digital Interface section for
timing information.)
Conversion start is controlled by the CS and R/C inputs. At
the start of conversion the successive approximation
register (SAR) is reset. Once a conversion cycle has begun
it cannot be restarted.
During the conversion, the internal 16-bit capacitive DAC
output is sequenced by the SAR from the most significant
bit (MSB) to the least significant bit (LSB). Referring to
Figure 1, VIN is connected through the resistor divider to
the sample-and-hold capacitor during the acquire phase
and the comparator offset is nulled by the autozero switches.
In this acquire phase, a minimum delay of 2µs will provide
enough time for the sample-and-hold capacitor to acquire
the analog signal. During the convert phase, the autozero
switches open, putting the comparator into the compare
mode. The input switch switches CSAMPLE to ground,
injecting the analog input charge onto the summing junction. This input charge is successively compared with the
binary-weighted charges supplied by the capacitive DAC.
Bit decisions are made by the high speed comparator. At

the end of a conversion, the DAC output balances the VIN
input charge. The SAR contents (a 16-bit data word) that
represents the VIN are loaded into the 16-bit output shift
register.
Driving the Analog Inputs
The LTC1609 analog input ranges, along with the nominal
input impedances, are shown in Tables 1a and 1b. The
inputs are overvoltage protected to ±25V. The input impedance can get as low as 10kΩ, therefore, it should be
driven with a low impedance source. Wideband noise
coupling into the input can be minimized by placing a
1000pF capacitor at the input as shown in Figure 2. An
NPO-type capacitor gives the lowest distortion. Place the
capacitor as close to the device input pin as possible. If an
amplifier is to be used to drive the input, care should be
taken to select an amplifier with adequate accuracy, linearity and noise for the application. The following list is a
summary of the op amps that are suitable for driving the
LTC1609. More detailed information is available in the
Linear Technology data books and LinearViewTM CD-ROM.

Offset and Gain Adjustments
The LTC1609 is specified to operate with three unipolar
and three bipolar input ranges. Pins R1IN, R2IN and R3IN
are connected as shown in Tables 1a and 1b for the
different input ranges. The tables also list the nominal
input impedance for each range. Table 1c shows the
output codes for the ideal input voltages of each of the six
input ranges.
The LTC1609 offset and full-scale errors have been trimmed
at the factory with the external resistors shown in Figures
3a and 3b. This allows for external adjustment of offset and
full scale in applications where absolute accuracy is important. The offset and gain adjustment circuits for the six
input ranges are also shown in Figures 3a and 3b. To
adjust the offset for a bipolar input range, apply an input
voltage equal to – 0.5LSB where 1LSB = (+ FS – – FS)/
65536 and change the offset resistor so the output code is
changing between 1111 1111 1111 1111 and 0000 0000
0000 0000. The gain is trimmed by applying an input
voltage of + FS – 1.5LSB and adjusting the gain trim resistor until the output code is changing between 0111 1111
1111 1110 and 0111 1111 1111 1111. In both cases the
data is in two’s complement format (SB/BTC = LOW)
To adjust the offset for a unipolar input range, apply an
input voltage equal to + 0.5LSB where 1LSB = + FS/65536.
Then adjust the offset trim resistor until the output code
changes between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 0000 0000
0000 0001. To adjust the gain, apply an input voltage equal
to + FS – 1.5LSB and vary the gain trimming resistor until
the output code is changing between 1111 1111 1111 1110
and 1111 1111 1111 1111. In the unipolar case, the data
is in straight binary format (SB/BTC = HIGH). Figures 4a
and 4b show the transfer characteristics of the LTC1609.

The ideal ±FS value for the ±3.3V range is 3.340000V – 1LSB
and – 3.340000V, respectively. The external 33.2k resistor
that is connected between the CAP pin and the R2IN pin,
slightly attenuates the input signal applied to R2IN. Without the 33.2k resistor the ±FS value would be 3.333333V
– 1LSB and – 3.333333V (zero volt offset), respectively.
DC Performance
One way of measuring the transition noise associated with
a high resolution ADC is to use a technique where a DC
signal is applied to the input of the ADC and the resulting
output codes are collected over a large number of conversions. For example in Figure 5 the distribution of output
code is shown for a DC input that has been digitized 4096
times. The distribution is Gaussian and the RMS code
transition is about 0.9LSB.

Dynamic Performance
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) test techniques are used to
test the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise
at the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine
wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT
algorithm, the ADC’s spectral content can be examined
for frequencies outside the fundamental. Figure 6 shows
a typical LTC1609 FFT plot which yields a SINAD of
87.2dB and THD of – 100dB.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
The Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD) is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency to the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the A/D output. The output is band limited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 6 shows a typical SINAD of 87.2dB with
a 200kHz sampling rate and a 1kHz input.

where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics.
Internal Voltage Reference
The LTC1609 has an on-chip, temperature compensated,
curvature corrected, bandgap reference, which is factory
trimmed to 2.50V. The full-scale range of the ADC scales
with VREF. The output of the reference is connected to the
input of a unity-gain buffer through a 4k resistor (see
Figure 7). The input to the buffer or the output of the
reference is available at REF. The internal reference can be
overdriven with an external reference if more accuracy is
needed. The buffer output drives the internal DAC and is
available at CAP. The CAP pin can be used to drive a steady
DC load of less than 2mA. Driving an AC load is not
recommended because it can cause the performance of
the converter to degrade.
For minimum code transition noise the REF pin and the
CAP pin should each be decoupled with a capacitor to
filter wideband noise from the reference and the buffer
(2.2µF tantalum).

Power Shutdown
the sample-and-hold into the hold mode bring CS and
R/C low for no less than 40ns. Once initiated it cannot be
restarted until the conversion is complete. Converter
status is indicated by the BUSY output and this is low while
the conversion is in progress.
When the PWRD pin is tied high, power consumption
drops to a typical value of 50µW from a specified maximum of 100mW. In the power shutdown mode, the result
from the previous conversion is still available in the
internal shift register, assuming the data had not been
clocked out before going into power shutdown.
The conversion result is clocked out serially on the DATA
pin. It can be synchronized by using the internal data clock
or by using an external clock provided by the user. Tying
the EXT/INT pin high puts the LTC1609 in the external
clock mode and the DATACLK pin is a digital input. Tying
the EXT/INT pin low puts the part in the internal clock mode
and the DATACLK pin becomes a digital output.
The internal reference buffer and the reference are shut
down, so the power-up recovery time will be dependent
upon how fast the bypass capacitors on these pins can be
charged. If the internal reference is used, the 4k resistor in
series with the output and the external bypass capacitor,
typically 2.2µF, will be the main time constant for the
power-up recovery time. If an external reference is used,
the reference buffer output will be able to ramp from 0V to
2.5V in 1ms, while charging a typical bypass capacitor of
2.2µF. The recovery time will be less if the bypass capacitor has not completely discharged.
Internal Clock Mode
With the EXT/INT pin tied low, the LTC1609 provides the
data clock on the DATACLK pin. The timing diagram is
shown in Figure 8. Typically, CS is tied low and the R/C
pin is used to start a conversion. During the conversion
a 16-bit word will be shifted out MSB-first on the DATA
pin. This word represents the result from the previous
conversion. The DATACLK pin outputs 16 clock pulses
used to synchronize the data. The output data is valid on
both the rising and falling edges of the clock. After the
LSB bit has been clocked out, the DATA pin will take on
the state of the TAG pin at the start of the conversion. The
DATACLK pin goes low until the next conversion is
requested. The data clock is derived from the internal
conversion clock. To avoid errors from occurring during
the current conversion, minimize the loading on the
DATACLK pin and the DATA pin. For the best conversion
results the external clock mode is recommended.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
Internal Conversion Clock
The ADC has an internal clock that is trimmed to achieve
a typical conversion time of 2.7µs. No external adjustments are required and, with the typical acquisition time of
1.5µs, throughput performance of 200ksps is assured.

of DATACLK #0. The SYNC output can be captured on the
falling edge of DATACLK #0 or on the rising edge of
DATACLK #1. After the rising edge of DATACLK #1, the
SYNC output will go low and the MSB will be clocked out
on the DATA pin. This bit can be latched on the falling edge
of DATACLK #1 or on the rising edge of DATACLK #2. The
LSB will be valid on the falling edge of DATACLK #16 or the
rising edge of DATACLK #17. After the rising edge of
DATACLK #17 the DATA pin will take on the value of the
TAG pin that occurred at the rising edge of DATACLK #1.
A minimum of 17 clock pulses are required if the data is
captured on falling clock edges.
With the EXT/INT pin tied high, the DATACLK pin becomes
a digital input and the LTC1609 can accept an externally
supplied data clock. There are several ways in which the
conversion results can be clocked out. The data can be
clocked out during or after a conversion with a continuous
or discontinuous data clock. Figures 9 to 12 show the
timing diagram for each of these methods.
External Discontinuous Data Clock Data Read
After the Conversion
Figure 9 shows how the result from the current conversion can be read out after the conversion has been
completed. The externally supplied data clock is running
discontinuously. R/C is used to initiate a conversion with
CS tied low. The conversion starts on the falling edge of
R/C. R/C should be returned high within 1.2µs to prevent
the transition from disturbing the conversion. After the
conversion has been completed (BUSY returning high), a
Using the highest frequency permitted for DATACLK
(20MHz), shifting the data out after the conversion will
not degrade the 200kHz throughput. This method minimizes the possible external disturbances that can occur
while a conversion is in progress and will yield the best
performance.

External Data Clock Data Read After the Conversion
Using the highest frequency permitted for DATACLK
(20MHz), shifting the data out after the conversion will not
degrade the 200kHz throughput.
Figure 10 shows how the result from the current conversion can be read out after the conversion has been completed. The externally supplied data clock is running
continuously. CS and R/C are first used together to initiate
a conversion and then CS is used to read the result. The
conversion starts on the falling edge of CS with R/C low.
Both CS and R/C should be returned high within 1.2µs to
prevent the transition from disturbing the conversion.
After the conversion has been completed (BUSY returning
high), a pulse on the SYNC pin will be generated after the
first rising edge of DATACLK #1 that occurs after CS goes
low (R/C high). The SYNC output can be captured on the
falling edge of DATACLK #1 or on the rising edge of
DATACLK #2. After the rising edge of DATACLK #2, the
SYNC output will go low and the MSB will be clocked out
on the DATA pin. This bit can be latched on the falling edge
of DATACLK #2 or on the rising edge of DATACLK #3. The
LSB will be valid on the falling edge of DATACLK #17 or the
rising edge of DATACLK #18. After the rising edge of
DATACLK #18 the DATA pin will take on the value of the
TAG pin that occurred at the rising edge of DATACLK #2.
External Discontinuous Data Clock Data Read
During the Conversion
Figure 11 shows how the result from the previous conversion can be read out during the current conversion. The
externally supplied data clock is running discontinuously.
R/C is used to initiate a conversion with CS tied low. The
conversion starts on the falling edge of R/C. R/C should be
returned high within 1.2µs to prevent the transition from
disturbing the conversion. A pulse on the SYNC pin will be
generated on rising edge of DATACLK #0. The SYNC
output can be captured on the falling edge of DATACLK #0
or on the rising edge of DATACLK #1. After the rising edge
of DATACLK #1, the SYNC output will go low and the MSB
will be clocked out on the DATA pin. This bit can be latched
on the falling edge of DATACLK #1 or on the rising edge of
DATACLK #2. The LSB will be valid on the falling edge of
DATACLK #16. Another clock pulse would be needed if the
LSB is captured on a rising edge. A minimum of 17 clock
pulses are required if the data is captured on falling clock
edges.

Read Previous Conversion Result During the Conversion. For Best Performance, Complete Read in Less Than 1.2µs
To minimize the possible external disturbances that can
occur while a conversion is in progress, the data needs to
be shifted out within 1.2µs from the start of the conversion. Using the maximum data clock frequency of 20MHz
will ensure this condition is met.
External Data Clock Data Read During the Conversion
Figure 12 shows how the result from the previous conversion can be read out during the current conversion. The
externally supplied data clock is running continuously. CS
and R/C are used to initiate a conversion and read the data
from the previous conversion. The conversion starts on
the falling edge of CS after R/C is low. A pulse on the SYNC
pin will be generated on the first rising edge of DATACLK
#1 after R/C has returned high. The SYNC output can be
captured on the falling edge of DATACLK #1 or on the
rising edge of DATACLK #2. After the rising edge of
DATACLK #2 the SYNC output will go low and the MSB will
be clocked out on the DATA pin. This bit can be latched on
the falling edge of DATACLK #2 or on the rising edge of
DATACLK #3. The LSB will be valid on the falling edge of
DATACLK #17 or the rising edge of DATACLK #18. After
the rising edge of DATACLK #18 the DATA pin will take on
the value of the TAG pin that occurred at the rising edge of
DATACLK #2.
To minimize the possible external disturbances that can
occur while a conversion is in progress, the data needs to
be shifted out within 1.2µs from the start of the conversion. Using the maximum data clock frequency of 20MHz
will ensure this condition is met. Since there is no throughput penalty for clocking the data out after the conversion,
clocking the data out during the conversion is not recommended.
Use of the TAG Input
The TAG input pin is used to daisy-chain multiple converters. This is useful for applications where hardware constraints may limit the number of lines needed to interface
to a large number of converters. This mode of operation
works only using the external clock method of shifting out
the data.
Figure 13 shows how this feature can be used. R/C, CS and
the DATACLK are tied together on both LTC1609s. CS can
be grounded if a discontinuous data clock is used. A falling
edge on R/C will allow both LTC1609s to capture their
respective analog input signals simultaneously. Once the
conversion has been completed the external data clock
DCLK is started. The MSB from device #1 will be valid after
the rising edge of DCLK #1. Once the LSB from device #1
has been shifted out on the rising edge of DCLK #16, a null

Figure 13. Two LTC1609s Cascaded
Together Using the TAG Input
bit will be shifted out on the following clock pulse before
the MSB from device #2 becomes available (Figure 14).
The reason for this is the MSB from device #2 will not be
valid soon enough to meet the minimum setup time of
device #1’s TAG input. A minimum of 34 clock pulses are
needed to shift out the results from both LTC1609s
assuming the data is captured on the falling clock edge.
Using the highest frequency permitted for DATACLK
(20MHz), a 200kHz throughput can still be achieved.

Output Data Format
The SB/BTC pin controls the format of the serial digital
output word. With the pin tied high the format is straight
binary. With the pin tied low the data format is two’s
complement. See Table 1c.
Board Layout, Power Supplies and Decoupling
Wire wrap boards are not recommended for high resolution or high speed A/D converters. To obtain the best
performance from the LTC1609, a printed circuit board is
required. Layout for the printed circuit board should
ensure the digital and analog signal lines are separated as
much as possible. In particular, care should be taken not
to run any digital track alongside an analog signal track or
underneath the ADC. The analog input should be screened
by AGND.
Pay particular attention to the design of the analog and
digital ground planes. Placing the bypass capacitor as
close as possible to the VDIG and VANA pins, the REF pin
and reference buffer output is very important. Low impedance common returns for these bypass capacitors are
essential to low noise operation of the ADC, and the foil
width for these tracks should be as wide as possible. Also,
since any potential difference in grounds between the
signal source and ADC appears as an error voltage in
series with the input signal, attention should be paid to
reducing the ground circuit impedance as much as possible. The digital output latches and the onboard sampling
clock have been placed on the digital ground plane. The
two ground planes are tied together at the power supply
ground connection.
A “postage stamp” (1.6in × 1.5in) evaluation board is
available and allows fast in-situ evaluation of the LTC1609.
See Figures 15a through 15d, inclusive.
