FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
■
The LTC®1290 is a data acquisition component which
contains a serial I/O successive approximation A/D converter. It uses LTCMOSTM switched capacitor technology
to perform either 12-bit unipolar or 11-bit plus sign bipolar
A/D conversions. The 8-channel input multiplexer can be
configured for either single-ended or differential inputs (or
combinations thereof). An on-chip sample-and-hold is
included for all single-ended input channels. When the
LTC1290 is idle it can be powered down with a serial word
in applications where low power consumption is desired.

The serial I/O is designed to be compatible with industry
standard full duplex serial interfaces. It allows either MSBor LSB-first data and automatically provides 2's complement output coding in the bipolar mode. The output data
word can be programmed for a length of 8, 12 or 16 bits.
This allows easy interface to shift registers and a variety of
processors.

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, AGND
and REF – wired together (unless otherwise noted).
Note 3: VCC = 5V, VREF + = 5V, VREF – = 0V, V – = 0V for unipolar mode and
– 5V for bipolar mode, ACLK = 4.0MHz unless otherwise specified.
Note 4: These specs apply for both unipolar and bipolar modes. In bipolar
mode, one LSB is equal to the bipolar input span (2VREF) divided by 4096.
For example, when VREF = 5V, 1LSB (bipolar) = 2(5V)/4096 = 2.44mV.
Note 5: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 6: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 7: Two on-chip diodes are tied to each reference and analog input
which will conduct for reference or analog input voltages one diode drop
below V – or one diode drop above VCC. Be careful during testing at low
VCC levels (4.5V), as high level reference or analog inputs (5V) can cause
this input diode to conduct, especially at elevated temperatures and cause
errors for inputs near full scale. This spec allows 50mV forward bias of
either diode. This means that as long as the reference or analog input does
not exceed the supply voltage by more than 50mV, the output code will be
correct. To achieve an absolute 0V to 5V input voltage range will therefore
require a minimum supply voltage of 4.950V over initial tolerance,
temperature variations and loading.
Note 8: Channel leakage current is measured after the channel selection.
Note 9: To minimize errors caused by noise at the chip select input, the
internal circuitry waits for two ACLK falling edge after a chip select falling
edge is detected before responding to control input signals. Therefore, no
attempt should be made to clock an address in or data out until the
minimum chip select setup time has elapsed.
Note 10: Increased leakage currents at elevated temperatures cause the
S/H to droop, therefore it's recommended that fACLK ≥ 125kHz at 85°C and
fACLK ≥ 15kHz at 25°C.

The LTC1290 is a data acquisition component which
contains the following functional blocks:
previous conversion is output on the DOUT line. At the end
of the data exchange the requested conversion begins and
CS should be brought high. After tCONV, the conversion is
complete and the results will be available on the next data
transfer cycle. As shown below, the result of a conversion
is delayed by one CS cycle from the input word requesting it.

LTC1290 • AI01
The LTC1290 communicates with microprocessors and
other external circuitry via a synchronous, full duplex,
four-wire serial interface (see Operating Sequence). The
shift clock (SCLK) synchronizes the data transfer with
each bit being transmitted on the falling SCLK edge and
captured on the rising SCLK edge in both transmitting and
receiving systems. The data is transmitted and received
simultaneously (full duplex).
Input Data Word
The LTC1290 8-bit data word is clocked into the DIN input
on the first eight rising SCLK edges after chip select is
recognized. Further inputs on the DIN pin are then ignored
until the next CS cycle. The eight bits of the input word are
defined as follows:
UNIPOLAR/
BIPOLAR
Data transfer is initiated by a falling chip select (CS) signal.
After the falling CS is recognized, an 8-bit input word is
shifted into the DIN input which configures the LTC1290
for the next conversion. Simultaneously, the result of the

MUX Address
The first four bits of the input word assign the MUX
configuration for the requested conversion. For a given
channel selection, the converter will measure the voltage
between the two channels indicated by the + and – signs
in the selected row of Table 1. Note that in differential
mode (SGL/DIFF = 0) measurements are limited to four
adjacent input pairs with either polarity. In single-ended
mode, all input channels are measured with respect to
COM.

The fifth input bit (UNI) determines whether the conversion will be unipolar or bipolar. When UNI is a logical one,
a unipolar conversion will be performed on the selected
input voltage. When UNI is a logical zero, a bipolar conversion will result. The input span and code assignment for
each conversion type are shown in the figures below.

MSB-First/LSB-First Format (MSBF)
The output data of the LTC1290 is programmed for MSBfirst or LSB-first sequence using the MSBF bit. For MSB
first output data the input word clocked to the LTC1290
should always contain a logical one in the sixth bit location
(MSBF bit). Likewise for LSB-first output data the input
word clocked to the LTC1290 should always contain a zero
in the MSBF bit location. The MSBF bit affects only the
order of the output data word. The order of the input word
is unaffected by this bit.

Deglitcher
A deglitching circuit has been added to the Chip Select
input of the LTC1290 to minimize the effects of errors
caused by noise on that input. This circuit ignores changes
in state on the CS input that are shorter in duration than
one ACLK cycle. After a change of state on the CS input, the
LTC1290 waits for two falling edge of the ACLK before
recognizing a valid chip select. One indication of CS
recognition is the DOUT line becoming active (leaving the
Hi-Z state). Note that the deglitching applies to both the
rising and falling CS edges.
The last two bits of the input word (WL1 and WL0)
program the output data word length and the power
shutdown feature of the LTC1290. Word lengths of 8, 12
or 16 bits can be selected according to the following table.
The WL1 and WL0 bits in a given DIN word control the
length of the present, not the next, DOUT word. WL1 and
WL0 are never “don’t cares” and must be set for the
correct DOUT word length even when a “dummy” DIN word
is sent. On any transfer cycle, the word length should be
made equal to the number of SCLK cycles sent by the
MPU. Power down will occur when WL1 = 0 and WL0 = 1
is selected. The previous conversion result will be clocked
out as a 10 bit word so a “dummy” conversion is required
before powering down the LTC1290. Conversions are
In the normal mode of operation, CS is brought high
during the conversion time. The serial port ignores any
SCLK activity while CS is high. The LTC1290 will also
operate with CS low during the conversion. In this mode,
SCLK must remain low during the conversion as shown in
the following figure. After the conversion is complete, the
DOUT line will become active with the first output bit. Then
the data transfer can begin as normal.

Microprocessor Interfaces
Serial Port Microprocessors
The LTC1290 can interface directly (without external hardware) to most popular microprocessor (MPU) synchronous serial formats (see Table 2). If an MPU without a
serial interface is used, then four of the MPU’s parallel port
lines can be programmed to form the serial link to the
LTC1290. Included here are two serial interface examples
and one example showing a parallel port programmed to
form the serial interface
Most synchronous serial formats contain a shift clock
(SCLK) and two data lines, one for transmitting and one for
receiving. In most cases data bits are transmitted on the
falling edge of the clock (SCLK) and captured on the rising
edge. However, serial port formats vary among MPU
manufactures as to the smallest number of bits that can be
sent in one group (e.g., 4-bit, 8-bit or 16-bit transfers).
They also vary as to the order in which the bits are
transmitted (LSB or MSB first). The following examples
show how the LTC1290 accommodates these differences.

When interfacing the LTC1290 to an MPU which has a
parallel port, the serial signals are created on the port with
software. Three MPU port lines are programmed to create
the CS, SCLK and DIN signals for the LTC1290. A fourth
port line reads the DOUT line. An example is made of the
Intel 8051/8052/80C252 family.

ANALOG CONSIDERATIONS
1. Grounding
The LTC1290 should be used with an analog ground plane
and single point grounding techniques.
AGND (Pin 11) should be tied directly to this ground plane.
DGND (Pin 10) can also be tied directly to this ground
plane because minimal digital noise is generated within
the chip itself.
VCC (Pin 20) should be bypassed to the ground plane with
a 22µF tantalum with leads as short as possible. V – (Pin
12) should be bypassed with a 0.1µF ceramic disk. For
single supply applications, V – can be tied to the ground
plane.
It is also recommended that REF – (Pin 13) and COM (Pin
9) be tied directly to the ground plane. All analog inputs
should be referenced directly to the single point ground.
Digital inputs and outputs should be shielded from and/or
routed away from the reference and analog circuitry.

Figure 6 shows an example of an ideal ground plane design
for a two-sided board. Of course, this much ground plane
will not always be possible, but users should strive to get
as close to this ideal as possible.

2. Bypassing
For good performance, VCC must be free of noise and
ripple. Any changes in the VCC voltage with respect to
analog ground during a conversion cycle can induce
errors or noise in the output code. VCC noise and ripple can
be kept below 0.5mV by bypassing the VCC pin directly to
the analog ground plane with a 22µF tantalum capacitor
and leads as short as possible. The lead from the device to
the VCC supply should also be kept to a minimum and the
VCC supply should have a low output impedance such as
that obtained from a voltage regulator (e.g., LT1761).
Figures 7 and 8 show the effects of good and poor VCC
bypassing.
3. Analog Inputs
Because of the capacitive redistribution A/D conversion
techniques used, the analog inputs of the LTC1290 have
capacitive switching input current spikes. These current

Noise and Ripple on VCC Below 1mV
spikes settle quickly and do not cause a problem. However, if large source resistances are used or if slow settling
op amps drive the inputs, care must be taken to insure that
the transients caused by the current spikes settle completely before the conversion begins.
Source Resistance
The analog inputs of the LTC1290 look like a 100pF
capacitor (CIN) in series with a 500Ω resistor (RON) as
shown in Figure 9. CIN gets switched between the selected
“+” and “–” inputs once during each conversion cycle. Large
external source resistors and capacitances will slow the
settling of the inputs. It is important that the overall RC time
constants be short enough to allow the analog inputs to
completely settle within the allowed time.

“+” Input Settling
This input capacitor is switched onto the “+” input during
the sample phase (tSMPL, see Figure 10). The sample
phase starts at the 4th SCLK cycle and lasts until the falling
edge of the last SCLK (the 8th, 12th or 16th SCLK cycle
depending on the selected word length). The voltage on
the “+” input must settle completely within this sample
time. Minimizing RSOURCE+ and C1 will improve the input
settling time. If large “+” input source resistance must be
used, the sample time can be increased by using a slower
SCLK frequency or selecting a longer word length. With
the minimum possible sample time of 2µs, RSOURCE+ < 1k
and C1 < 20pF will provide adequate settling.

Input Op Amps
When driving the analog inputs with an op amp it is
important that the op amp settle within the allowed time

times can be extended as described above to accommodate slower op amps. Most op amps including the LT1797,
LT1800 and LT1812 single supply op amps can be made
to settle well even with the minimum settling windows of

At the end of the sample phase the input capacitor switches

During the conversion, the “+” input voltage is effectively
“held” by the sample-and-hold and will not affect the
conversion result. However, it is critical that the “–” input
voltage be free of noise and settle completely during the
first four ACLK cycles of the conversion time. Minimizing
RSOURCE– and C2 will improve settling time. If large “–”
input source resistance must be used, the time allowed for
settling can be extended by using a slower ACLK frequency. At the maximum ACLK rate of 4MHz, RSOURCE–
< 250Ω and C2 < 20pF will provide adequate settling.

Input leakage currents can also create errors if the source
resistance gets too large. For instance, the maximum input
leakage specification of 1µA (at 125°C) flowing through a
source resistance of 1kΩ will cause a voltage drop of 1mV
or 0.8LSB. This error will be much reduced at lower
temperatures because leakage drops rapidly (see the
typical curve of Input Channel Leakage Current vs Temperature).

Noise Coupling Into Inputs
HORIZONTAL: 20µs/DIV
Figure 12. Poor Op Amp Settling Can Cause A/D Errors
RC Input Filtering
It is possible to filter the inputs with an RC network as shown
in Figure 13. For large values of CF (e.g., 1µF), the capacitive
input switching currents are averaged into a net DC current.
Therefore, a filter should be chosen with a small resistor and
large capacitor to prevent DC drops across the resistor. The
magnitude of the DC current is approximately IDC =
(100pF)(VIN/tCYC) and is roughly proportional to VIN. When
running at the minimum cycle time of 20µs, the input
current equals 25µA at VIN = 5V. In this case, a filter resistor
of 5Ω will cause 0.1LSB of full-scale error. If a larger filter
resistor must be used, errors can be eliminated by increasing the cycle time as shown in the typical curve of Maximum
Filter Resistor vs Cycle Time.
High source resistance input signals (>500Ω) are more
sensitive to coupling from external sources. It is preferable to use channels near the center of the package (i.e.,
CH2 to CH7) for signals which have the highest output
resistance because they are essentially shielded by the
pins on the package ends (DGND and CH0). Grounding
any unused inputs (especially the end pin, CH0) will also
reduce outside coupling into high source resistances.
4. Sample-and-Hold
Single-Ended Inputs
The LTC1290 provides a built-in sample-and-hold (S&H)
function for all signals acquired in the single-ended mode
(COM pin grounded). This sample-and-hold allows the
LTC1290 to convert rapidly varying signals (see the typical
curve of S&H Acquisition Time vs Source Resistance). The
input voltage is sampled during the tSMPL time as shown in
Figure 10. The sampling interval begins after the fourth MUX
address bit is shifted in and continues during the remainder
of the data transfer. On the falling edge of the final SCLK, the
S&H goes into hold mode and the conversion begins. The
voltage will be held on either the 8th, 12th or 16th falling edge
of the SCLK depending on the word length selected.

S I FOR ATIO
With differential inputs or when the COM pin is not tied to
ground, the A/D no longer converts just a single voltage but
rather the difference between two voltages. In these cases,
the voltage on the selected “+” input is still sampled and held
and therefore may be rapidly time varying just as in singleended mode. However, the voltage on the selected “–” input
must remain constant and be free of noise and ripple
throughout the conversion time. Otherwise, the differencing
operation may not be performed accurately. The conversion
time is 52 ACLK cycles. Therefore, a change in the “–” input
voltage during this interval can cause conversion errors.
For a sinusoidal voltage on the “–” input this error would be:
VERROR (MAX) = (VPEAK)(2π)[ f(“–”)](52/fACLK)
Where f(“–”) is the frequency of the “–” input voltage,
VPEAK is its peak amplitude and fACLK is the frequency of
the ACLK. In most cases VERROR will not be significant. For
a 60Hz signal on the “–” input to generate a 0.25LSB error
(300µV) with the converter running at ACLK = 4MHz, its
peak value would have to be 61mV.
5. Reference Inputs
The voltage between the reference inputs of the LTC1290
defines the voltage span of the A/D converter. The reference inputs will have transient capacitive switching currents due to the switched capacitor conversion technique
(see Figure 14). During each bit test of the conversion
(every 4 ACLK cycles), a capacitive current spike will be
generated on the reference pins by the A/D. These current
spikes settle quickly and do not cause a problem. However, if slow settling circuitry is used to drive the reference
inputs, care must be taken to insure that transients caused
by these current spikes settle completely during each bit
test of the conversion.

LTC1290
EVERY 4 ACLK CYCLES
RON
When driving the reference inputs, two things should be
kept in mind:
1. Transients on the reference inputs caused by the
capacitive switching currents must settle completely
during each bit test (each 4 ACLK cycles). Figures 15
and 16 show examples of both adequate and poor
settling. Using a slower ACLK will allow more time for
the reference to settle. However, even at the maximum
ACLK rate of 4MHz most references and op amps can
be made to settle within the 1µs bit time. For example
the LT1236 will settle adequately.
2. It is recommended that REF – input be tied directly to
the analog ground plane. If REF – is biased at a voltage
other than ground, the voltage must not change during
a conversion cycle. This voltage must also be free of
noise and ripple with respect to analog ground.

6. Reduced Reference Operation
The effective resolution of the LTC1290 can be increased
by reducing the input span of the converter. The LTC1290
exhibits good linearity and gain over a wide range of
reference voltages (see the typical curves of Linearity and
Gain Error vs Reference Voltage). However, care must be
taken when operating at low values of VREF because of the
reduced LSB step size and the resulting higher accuracy
requirement placed on the converter. The following factors
must be considered when operating at low VREF values:
1. Offset
2. Noise
Offset with Reduced VREF
The offset of the LTC1290 has a larger effect on the output
code when the A/D is operated with reduced reference
voltage. The offset (which is typically a fixed voltage)
becomes a larger fraction of an LSB as the size of the LSB
is reduced. The typical curve of Unadjusted Offset Error vs
Reference Voltage shows how offset in LSBs is related to
reference voltage for a typical value of VOS. For example,
a VOS of 0.1mV which is 0.1LSB with a 5V reference
becomes 0.4LSB with a 1.25V reference. If this offset is
unacceptable, it can be corrected digitally by the receiving
system or by offsetting the “–” input to the LTC1290.
Noise with Reduced VREF
The total input referred noise of the LTC1290 can be
reduced to approximately 200µV peak-to-peak using a
ground plane, good bypassing, good layout techniques
and minimizing noise on the reference inputs. This noise
is insignificant with a 5V reference but will become a larger
fraction of an LSB as the size of the LSB is reduced. The
typical curve of Noise Error vs Reference Voltage shows
the LSB contribution of this 200µV of noise.
For operation with a 5V reference, the 200µV noise is only
0.16LSB peak-to-peak. In this case, the LTC1290 noise
will contribute virtually no uncertainty to the output code.
However, for reduced references, the noise may become
a significant fraction of an LSB and cause undesirable jitter
in the output code. For example, with a 1.25V reference,
this same 200µV noise is 0.64LSB peak-to-peak. This will
reduce the range of input voltages over which a stable
output code can be achieved by 0.64LSB. In this case
averaging readings may be necessary.
This noise data was taken in a very clean setup. Any setup induced noise (noise or ripple on VCC, VREF, VIN or V –) will add to
the internal noise. The lower the reference voltage to be used,
the more critical it becomes to have a clean, noise-free setup.
7. LTC1290 AC Characteristics
Two commonly used figures of merit for specifying the
dynamic performance of the A/D’s in digital signal processing applications are the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and
the “effective number of bits (ENOB).” SNR is defined as
the ratio of the RMS magnitude of the fundamental to the
RMS magnitude of all the nonfundamental signals up to the
Nyquist frequency (half the sampling frequency). The
theoretical maximum SNR for a sine wave input is given by:
SNR = (6.02N + 1.76dB)
where N is the number of bits. Thus the SNR is a function
of the resolution of the A/D. For an ideal 12-bit A/D the SNR
is equal to 74dB. A Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) plot of the
output spectrum of the LTC1290 is shown in Figures 17a
and 17b. The input (fIN) frequencies are 1kHz and 25kHz
with the sampling frequency (fS) at 50.6kHz. The SNR
obtained from the plot are 73.25dB and 72.54dB.
Rewriting the SNR expression it is possible to obtain the
equivalent resolution based on the SNR measurement.
N = (SNR – 1.76dB)/6.02
This is the so-called effective number of bits (ENOB). For
the example shown in Figures 17a and 17b, N = 11.9 bits
and 11.8 bits, respectively. Figure 18 shows a plot of ENOB
as a function of input frequency. The curve shows the
A/D’s ENOB remain in the range of 11.9 to 11.8 for input
frequencies up to fS/2.
Figure 19 shows an FFT plot of the output spectrum for two
tones applied to the input of the A/D. Nonlinearities in the
A/D will cause distortion products at the sum and difference frequencies of the fundamentals and products of the
fundamentals. This is classically referred to as intermodulation distortion (IMD).

8. Overvoltage Protection
Applying signals to the analog MUX that exceed the
positive or negative supply of the device will degrade the
accuracy of the A/D and possibly damage the device. For
example this condition would occur if a signal is applied to
the analog MUX before power is applied to the LTC1290.
Another example is the input source is operating from
different supplies of larger value than the LTC1290. These
conditions should be prevented either with proper supply
sequencing or by use of external circuitry to clamp or
current limit the input source. As shown in Figure 20, a 1k
resistor is enough to stand off ±15V (15mA for one only
channel). If more than one channel exceeds the supplies

then the following guidelines can be used. Limit the
current to 7mA per channel and 28mA for all channels.
This means four channels can handle 7mA of input current
each. Reducing the ACLK and SCLK frequencies from the
maximum of 4MHz and 2MHz, respectively, (see Typical
Performance Characteristics curves Maximum ACLK Frequency vs Source Resistance and Sample-and-Hold
Acquisition Time vs Source Resistance) allows the use of
larger current limiting resistors. Use 1N4148 diode clamps
from the MUX inputs to VCC and V – if the value of the series
resistor will not allow the maximum clock speeds to be
used or if an unknown source is used to drive the LTC1290
MUX inputs.

Figure 20. Overvoltage Protection for MUX
How the various power supplies to the LTC1290 are
applied can also lead to overvoltage conditions. For single
supply operation (i.e., unipolar mode), if VCC and REF + are
not tied together, then VCC should be turned on first, then
REF +. If this sequence cannot be met, connecting a diode
from REF + to VCC is recommended (see Figure 21).
VCC
20
For dual supplies (bipolar mode) placing two Schottky
diodes from VCC and V – to ground (Figure 23) will prevent
power supply reversal from occurring when an input
source is applied to the analog MUX before power is
applied to the device. Power supply reversal occurs, for
example, if the input is pulled below V – then VCC will pull
a diode drop below ground which could cause the device
not to power up properly. Likewise, if the input is pulled
above VCC then V – will be pulled a diode drop above
ground. If no inputs are present on the MUX, the Schottky
diodes are not required if V – is applied first, then VCC.
Because a unique input protection structure is used on the
digital input pins, the signal levels on these pins can
exceed the device VCC without damaging the device.

The LTC1290’s unique ability to software select the polarity of the differential inputs and the output word length is
used to achieve one more bit of resolution. Using the
circuit below with two conversions and some software, a
2’s complement 12-bit + sign word is returned to memory
inside the MPU. The MC68HC05C4 was chosen as an
example, however, any processor could be used.
Two 12-bit unipolar conversions are performed: the first
over a 0V to 5V span and the second over a 0V to –5V span
(by reversing the polarity of the inputs). The sign of the
input is determined by which of the two spans contained
it. Then the resulting number (ranging from –4095 to
+4095 decimal) is converted to 2’s complement notation
and stored in RAM.

TYPICAL APPLICATI

Power Shutdown
For battery-powered applications it is desirable to keep
power dissipation at a minimum. The LTC1290 can be
powered down when not in use reducing the supply
current from a nominal value of 5mA to typically 5µA (with
ACLK turned off). See the curve for Supply Current (Power
Shutdown) vs ACLK if ACLK cannot be turned off when the
LTC1290 is powered down. In this case the supply current
is proportional to the ACLK frequency and is independent
of temperature until it reaches the magnitude of the supply
current attained with ACLK turned off.
As an example of how to use this feature let’s add this to
the previous application, SNEAK-A-BIT. After the CHK
SIGN subroutine call insert the following:
•
•
JSR CHK SIGN
Determines which reading has valid
data, converts to 2’s complement
and stores in RAM
JSR SHUTDOWN
LTC1290 power shutdown routine
The actual subroutine is:
SHUTDOWN: LDA #$3D
Load DIN word for
LTC1290 into ACC
JSR TRANSFER Read LTC1290 routine
RTS
Return
To place the device in power shutdown the word length
bits are set to WL1 = 0 and WL0 = 1. The LTC1290 is
powered up on the next request for a conversion and it’s
ready to digitize an input signal immediately.
Power Shutdown Timing Considerations
After power shutdown has been requested, the LTC1290
is powered up on the next request for a conversion. This
request can be initiated either by bringing CS low or by
starting the next cycle of SCLKs if CS is kept low (see
Figures 3 and 4). When the SCLK frequency is much
slower than the ACLK frequency a situation can arise
where the LTC1290 could power down and then prematurely power back up. Power shutdown begins at the
negative going edge of the 10th SCLK once it has been
requested. A dummy conversion is executed and the
LTC1290 waits for the next request for conversion. If the
SCLKs have not finished once the LTC1290 has finished its
dummy conversion, it will recognize the next remaining
SCLKs as a request to start a conversion and power up the
LTC1290 (see Figure 23). To prevent this, bring either CS
high at the 10th SCLK (Figure 24) or clock out only 10
SCLKs (Figure 25) when power shutdown is requested.
