GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The conversion process is a proprietary algorithmic successiveapproximation technique that results in no pipeline delays. The
input signal is sampled, and a conversion is initiated on the
falling edge of the CONVST signal. The conversion process is
controlled via an internally trimmed oscillator. Interfacing is via
standard parallel signal lines, making the part directly compatible with microcontrollers and DSPs.
The AD7482 features an on-board 2.5 V reference but can also
accommodate an externally provided 2.5 V reference source. The
nominal analog input range is 0 V to 2.5 V, but an offset shift
capability allows this nominal range to be offset by ± 200 mV.
This allows the user considerable flexibility in setting the bottom
end reference point of the signal range, a useful feature when
using single-supply op amps.
The AD7482 provides excellent ac and dc performance specifications. Factory trimming ensures high dc accuracy resulting in
very low INL, offset, and gain errors.
The AD7482 also provides the user with an 8% overrange
capability via a 13th bit. Thus, if the analog input range strays
outside the nominal by up to 8%, the user can still accurately
resolve the signal by using the 13th bit.
The part uses advanced design techniques to achieve very low
power dissipation at high throughput rates. Power consumption
in the normal mode of operation is 90 mW. There are two powersaving modes: a NAP Mode that keeps the reference circuitry alive
for a quick power-up while consuming 2.5 mW, and a STANDBY
Mode that reduces power consumption to a mere 10 µW.
The AD7482 is powered by a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply. The part
also provides a VDRIVE Pin that allows the user to set the voltage
levels for the digital interface lines. The range for this VDRIVE Pin
is 2.7 V to 5.25 V. The part is housed in a 48-lead LQFP package
and is specified over a –40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Reference Input. A 470 nF capacitor must be placed between this pin and AGND. When using an
external voltage reference source, the reference voltage should be applied to this pin.
Reference Decoupling Pin. When using the internal reference, a 1 nF capacitor must be connected
from this pin to AGND. When using an external reference source, this pin should be connected
directly to AGND.
Standby Logic Input. When this pin is logic high, the device will be placed in Standby Mode.
See Power Saving section for further details.
NAP Logic Input. When this pin is logic high, the device will be placed in a very low power mode.
See Power Saving section for further details.
Chip Select Logic Input. This pin is used in conjunction with RD to access the conversion result.
The databus is brought out of three-state and the current contents of the output register driven
onto the data lines following the falling edge of both CS and RD. CS is also used in conjunction
with WRITE to perform a write to the offset register. CS can be hardwired permanently low.
Read Logic Input. Used in conjunction with CS to access the conversion result.
Write Logic Input. Used in conjunction with CS to write data to the offset register. When the
desired offset word has been placed on the databus, the WRITE line should be pulsed high. It is
the falling edge of this pulse that latches the word into the offset register.
Busy Logic Output. This pin indicates the status of the conversion process. The BUSY signal goes
low after the falling edge of CONVST and stays low for the duration of the conversion. In Parallel
Mode 1, the BUSY signal returns high when the conversion result has been latched into the output
register. In Parallel Mode 2, the BUSY signal returns high as soon as the conversion has been
completed, but the conversion result does not get latched into the output register until the falling
edge of the next CONVST pulse.
These pins should be pulled to ground via 100 kΩ resistors.
Data I/O Bits (D11 is MSB). These are three-state pins that are controlled by CS, RD, and
WRITE. The operating voltage level for these pins is determined by the VDRIVE input.
Positive Power Supply for Digital Circuitry
Ground Reference for Digital Circuitry
Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin will determine at what voltage the
interface logic of the device will operate.
Data Output Bit for Overranging. If the overrange feature is not used, this pin should be pulled to
DGND via a 100 kΩ resistor.
Convert Start Logic Input. A conversion is initiated on the falling edge of the CONVST signal.
The input track-and-hold amplifier goes from track mode to hold mode and the conversion process
commences.
Reset Logic Input. A falling edge on this pin resets the internal state machine and terminates a
conversion that may be in progress. The contents of the offset register will also be cleared on this
edge. Holding this pin low keeps the part in a reset state.
Operating Mode Logic Input. See Table III for details.
Operating Mode Logic Input. See Table III for details.
Logic Input. A logic high on this pin enables output clipping. In this mode, any input voltage that
is greater than positive full scale or less than negative full scale will be clipped to all “1s” or all “0s,”
respectively. Further details are given in the Offset/Overrange section.

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity
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 f S/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 will be a
noise peak.
This is 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, a point 1/2 LSB
below the first code transition, and full scale, a point 1/2 LSB
above the last code transition.
Differential Nonlinearity
This is the difference between the measured and ideal 1 LSB
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
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 and 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).
Offset Error
This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to
(00 . . . 001) from the ideal, i.e., AGND + 0.5 LSB.
Gain Error
This is the deviation of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to
(111 . . . 111) from the ideal (i.e., VREF – 1.5 LSB) after the
offset error has been adjusted out.
The AD7482 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.
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
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 (the point at
which the track-and-hold returns to track mode).
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio
This is the measured ratio of signal-to-(noise + distortion) at
the output of the A/D converter. 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 + distortion) ratio for
an ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by:
Signal−to−( Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76) dB
Thus, for a 12-bit converter this is 74 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum
of the harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7482, it is
defined as:
2
2
2
2
2
V2 + V3 + V4 + V5 + V6
V1
where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3,
V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the
sixth harmonics.

For higher input bandwidth applications, Analog Devices’
AD8021 op amp (also available as a dual AD8022) is the
recommended choice to drive the AD7482. Figure 2 shows
the analog input circuit used to obtain the data for the FFT
plot shown in TPC 2. A bipolar analog signal is applied to
the terminal shown and biased up with a stable, low noise dc
voltage connected as shown. A 10 pF compensation capacitor
is connected between Pin 5 of the AD8021 and the negative
supply. As with the previous circuit, the AD8021 is supplied
with +12 V and –12 V supplies. The supply pins are decoupled
as close to the device as possible, with both a 0.1 µF and 10 µF
capacitor connected to each pin. In each case, the 0.1 µF capacitor should be the closer of the two caps to the device. The
AD8021 logic reference pin is tied to analog ground and the
DISABLE Pin is tied to the positive supply as shown. Detailed
information on the AD8021 is available on the Analog
Devices website.

Figure 1 shows the analog input circuit used to obtain the
data for the FFT plot shown in TPC 1. The circuit uses an
Analog Devices AD829 op amp as the input buffer. A bipolar
analog signal is applied as shown and biased up with a stable,
low noise dc voltage connected to the labeled terminal
shown. A 220 pF compensation capacitor is connected between Pin 5 and the AD829 and the analog ground plane.
The AD829 is supplied with +12 V and –12 V supplies. The
supply pins are decoupled as close to the device as possible
with both a 0.1 ␮F and 10 ␮F capacitor connected to each
pin. In each case, 0.1 ␮F capacitor should be the closer of
the two caps to the device. More information on the AD829

AD7482
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
CONVERTER OPERATION
CAPACITIVE
DAC
The AD7482 is a 12-bit algorithmic successive-approximation
analog-to-digital converter based around a capacitive DAC. It
provides the user with track-and-hold, reference, an A/D converter, and versatile interface logic functions on a single chip.
The normal analog input signal range that the AD7482 can
convert is 0 V to 2.5 V. By using the offset and overrange features on the ADC, the AD7482 can convert analog input signals
from –200 mV to +2.7 V while operating from a single 5 V
supply. The part requires a 2.5 V reference, which can be
provided from the part’s own internal reference or an external reference source. Figure 3 shows a very simplified
schematic of the ADC. The control logic, SAR, and capacitive DAC are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of
charge from the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator
back to a balanced condition.

ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION
The output coding of the AD7482 is straight binary. The designed
code transitions occur midway between the successive integer
LSB values (i.e., 1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSB, and so on). The LSB size
is VREF/4096. The nominal transfer characteristic for the AD7482
is shown in Figure 6. This transfer characteristic may be shifted
as detailed in the Offset/Overrange section.

POWER SAVING
The AD7482 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very
low power dissipation at high throughput rates. In addition to
this, the AD7482 features two power saving modes, NAP and
Standby. These modes are selected by bringing either the NAP or
STBY Pin to a logic high, respectively.
When operating the AD7482 in normal fully powered mode, the
current consumption is 18 mA during conversion and the quiescent current is 12 mA. Operating at a throughput rate of 1 MSPS,
the conversion time of 300 ns contributes 27 mW to the overall
power dissipation.
(300 ns/1 µs) × (5V × 18 mA) = 27 mW
For the remaining 700 ns of the cycle, the AD7482 dissipates
42 mW of power.

Conversion is initiated on the AD7482 by pulsing the CONVST
input. On the falling edge of CONVST, the track-and-hold
goes from track mode to hold mode and the conversion
sequence is started. Conversion time for the part is 300 ns.
Figure 4 shows the ADC during conversion. When conversion
starts, SW2 will open and SW1 will move to Position B, causing
the comparator to become unbalanced. The ADC then runs
through its successive-approximation routine and brings the
comparator back into a balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the conversion result is available in the
SAR Register.

Figure 7. Normal Mode Power Dissipation
In NAP Mode, almost all the internal circuitry is powered down.
In this mode, the power dissipation of the AD7482 is reduced
to 2.5 mW. When exiting NAP Mode, a minimum of 300 ns
when using an external reference must be waited before initiating a conversion. This is necessary to allow the internal
circuitry to settle after power-up and for the track-and-hold to
properly acquire the analog input signal. The internal reference
cannot be used in conjunction with the NAP Mode.

If the AD7482 is put into NAP Mode after each conversion, the
average power dissipation will be reduced, but the throughput rate
will be limited by the power-up time. Using the AD7482 with a

While in NAP Mode for the rest of the cycle, the AD7482
dissipates only 1.75 mW of power.
(1400 ns/2 µs ) × (5 V × 0.5 mA ) = 1.75 mW
Thus, the power dissipated during each cycle is:
9 mW + 13.5 mW + 1.75 mW = 24.25 mW
Figure 8 shows the AD7482 conversion sequence if putting the
part into NAP Mode after each conversion.
In Standby Mode, all the internal circuitry is powered down and
the power consumption of the AD7482 is reduced to 10 µW. The
power-up time necessary before a conversion can be initiated is
longer because more of the internal circuitry has been powered
down. In using the internal reference of the AD7482, the ADC
must be brought out of Standby Mode 500 ms before a conversion is initiated. Initiating a conversion before the required
power-up time has elapsed will result in incorrect conversion
data. If an external reference source is used and kept powered
up while the AD7482 is in Standby Mode, the power-up time
required will be reduced to 80 ␮s.

AD7482
OFFSET/OVERRANGE
The AD7482 provides a ± 8% overrange capability as well as a
programmable offset register. The overrange capability is achieved
by the use of a 13th bit (D12) and the CLIP input. If the CLIP
input is at logic high and the contents of the offset register are
zero, then the AD7482 operates as a normal 12-bit ADC. If the
input voltage is greater than the full-scale voltage, the data output
from the ADC will be all “1s.” Similarly, if the input voltage is
lower than the zero-scale voltage, the data output from the ADC
will be all “0s.” In this case, D12 acts as an overrange indicator. It
is set to “1” if the analog input voltage is outside the nominal 0 V
to 2.5 V range.

Figure 11 shows the effect of writing a positive value to the offset
register. If, for example, the contents of the offset register
contained the value 256, then the value of the analog input
voltage for which the ADC would transition from reading all
“0s” to 000...001 (the bottom reference point) would be:
0.5 LSB – (256 LSB ) = –155.944 mV
The analog input voltage for which the ADC would read fullscale (0xFFF) in this example would be:

If the offset register contains any value other than “0,” the
contents of the register are added to the SAR result at the end

of the ADC as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12. However,
it should be noted that with the CLIP input set to logic high,
the maximum and minimum codes that the AD7482 will output
will be 0xFFF and 0x000, respectively. Further details are given

Values from –327 to +327 may be written to the offset register.
These values correspond to an offset of ± 200 mV. A write to the
offset register is performed by writing a 13-bit word to the part
as detailed in the Parallel Interface section. The 10 LSBs of the
13-bit word contain the offset value, while the 3 MSBs must
be set to “0.” Failure to write zeros to the 3 MSBs may result
in the incorrect operation of the device.
–11–
AD7482
The data lines D0 to D12 leave their high impedance state when
both the CS and RD are logic low. Therefore, CS may be permanently tied logic low if required, and the RD signal may be used to
access the conversion result. Figure 15 shows a timing specification
called tQUIET. This is the amount of time that should be left after
any databus activity before the next conversion is initiated.
PARALLEL INTERFACE
The AD7482 features two parallel interfacing modes. These
modes are selected by the mode pins as detailed in Table III.

Writing to the AD7482
The AD7482 features a user-accessible offset register. This allows
the bottom of the transfer function to be shifted by ± 200 mV.
This feature is explained in more detail in the Offset/Overrange
section.
In Parallel Mode 1, the data in the output register is updated on
the rising edge of BUSY at the end of a conversion and is available for reading almost immediately afterward. Using this mode,
throughput rates of up to 2.5 MSPS can be achieved. This
mode should be used if the conversion data is required immediately after the conversion has completed. An example where this
may be of use is if the AD7482 was operating at much lower
throughput rates in conjunction with the NAP Mode (for
power-saving reasons), and the input signal was being compared
with set limits within the DSP or other controller. If the limits
were exceeded, the ADC would then be brought immediately
into full power operation and commence sampling at full speed.
Figure 17 shows a timing diagram for the AD7482 operating in
Parallel Mode 1 with both CS and RD tied low.
In Parallel Mode 2, the data in the output register is not updated
until the next falling edge of CONVST. This mode could be used
where a single sample delay is not vital to the system operation
and conversion speeds of greater than 2.5 MSPS are desired.
This may occur, for example, in a system where a large amount
of samples are taken at high speed before a Fast Fourier Transform is performed for frequency analysis of the input signal.
Figure 18 shows a timing diagram for the AD7482 operating in
Parallel Mode 2 with both CS and RD tied low.
Data must not be read from the AD7482 while a conversion is
taking place. For this reason, if operating the AD7482 at
throughput speeds greater than 2.5 MSPS, it will be necessary
to tie both CS and RD Pins on the AD7482 low and use a
buffer on the data lines. This situation may also arise in the case
where a read operation cannot be completed in the time after
the end of one conversion and the start of the quiet period before
the next conversion.
The maximum slew rate at the input of the ADC should be
limited to 500 V/␮s while BUSY is low to avoid corrupting the
ongoing conversion. In any multiplexed application where the
channel is switched during conversion, this should happen as
early as possible after the BUSY falling edge.
Reading Data from the AD7482
Data is read from the part via a 13-bit parallel databus with the
standard CS and RD signals. The CS and RD signals are internally gated to enable the conversion result onto the databus.
To write to the offset register, a 13-bit word is written to the
AD7482 with the 10 LSBs containing the offset value in two’s
complement format. The 3 MSBs must be set to “0.” The offset
value must be within the range –327 to +327, corresponding to an
offset from –200 mV to +200 mV. The value written to the offset
register is stored and used until power is removed from the device,
or the device is reset. The value stored may be updated at any
time between conversions by another write to the device. Table IV
shows some examples of offset register values and their effective
offset voltage. Figure 16 shows a timing diagram for writing to
the AD7482.

Driving the CONVST Pin
To achieve the specified performance from the AD7482, the
CONVST Pin must be driven from a low jitter source. Since the
falling edge on the CONVST Pin determines the sampling instant,
any jitter that may exist on this edge will appear as noise when
the analog input signal contains high frequency components. The
relationship between the analog input frequency (fIN), timing
jitter (tj), and resulting SNR is given by the equation:
SNRJITTER ( dB ) = 10log
1
(2π × f IN × t j )2
As an example, if the desired SNR due to jitter was 100 dB with a
maximum full-scale analog input frequency of 1.5 MHz, ignoring all other noise sources, the result is an allowable jitter on the
CONVST falling edge of 1.06 ps. For a 12-bit converter (ideal
SNR = 74 dB), the allowable jitter will be greater than the figure
given above, but due consideration must be given to the design
of the CONVST circuitry to achieve 12-bit performance with
large analog input frequencies.

AD7482
Typical Connection
Figure 13 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7482
operating in Parallel Mode 1. Conversion is initiated by a falling
edge on CONVST. Once CONVST goes low, the BUSY signal
goes low, and at the end of conversion, the rising edge of BUSY
is used to activate an interrupt service routine. The CS and RD
lines are then activated to read the 12 data bits (13 bits if using
the overrange feature).
In Figure 13, the VDRIVE Pin is tied to DVDD, which results in logic
output levels being either 0 V or DVDD. The voltage applied
to VDRIVE controls the voltage value of the output logic signals.
For example, if DVDD is supplied by a 5 V supply and VDRIVE by
a 3 V supply, the logic output levels would be either 0 V or 3 V.
This feature allows the AD7482 to interface to 3 V devices, while
still enabling the ADC to process signals at a 5 V supply.

Board Layout and Grounding
To obtain optimum performance from the AD7482, it is recommended that a printed circuit board with a minimum of three
layers be used. One of these layers, preferably the middle layer,
should be as complete a ground plane as possible to give the
best shielding. The board should be designed in such a way that
the analog and digital circuitry is separated and confined to
certain areas of the board. This practice, along with avoiding
running digital and analog lines close together, should help to
avoid coupling digital noise onto analog lines.
The power supply lines to the AD7482 should be approximately 3 mm wide to provide low impedance paths and
reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply lines. It is
vital that good decoupling also be present. A combination of
ferrites and decoupling capacitors should be used as shown in
Figure 13. The decoupling capacitors should be as close to the
supply pins as possible. This is made easier by the use of multilayer boards. The signal traces from the AD7482 pins can be
run on the top layer, while the decoupling capacitors and
ferrites can be mounted on the bottom layer where the power
traces exist. The ground plane between the top and bottom
planes provide excellent shielding.
