The LTC®1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 are 8-channel, low
power, 12-/14-/16-bit, 100ksps, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). These ADCs operate from a single 5V
supply and the 8-channel multiplexer can be programmed
for single-ended inputs, pairs of differential inputs, or
combinations of both. In addition, all channels are fault
protected to ±30V. A fault condition on any channel will
not affect the conversion result of the selected channel.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to ground with DGND, AGND1,
AGND2 and AGND3 wired together unless otherwise noted.
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below ground or above AVDD =
DVDD = OVDD = VDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product
can handle currents of greater than 100mA below ground or above VDD
without latchup.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below ground they will be
clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle currents of greater
than 100mA below ground without latchup. These pins are not clamped
to VDD.
Note 5: VDD = 5V, fSAMPLE = 100kHz, tr = tf = 5ns unless otherwise
specified.
Note 6: Linearity, offset and full-scale specifications apply for a singleended analog MUX input with respect to ground or ADC+ with respect to
ADC– tied 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 8: Bipolar zero error is the offset voltage measured from – 0.5LSB
when the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 1111
1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1856, between 00 0000 0000 0000 and 11
1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1855 and between 0000 0000 0000 and 1111
1111 1111 for the LTC1854.
Note 9: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 10: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 11: Full-scale bipolar error is the worst case of –FS or +FS
untrimmed deviation from ideal first and last code transitions, divided by
the full-scale range, and includes the effect of offset error.
Note 12: Recovers to specified performance after (2 • FS) input
overvoltage.
Note 13: t6 of 45ns maximum allows fSCK up to 10MHz for rising capture
with 50% duty cycle and fSCK up to 20MHz for falling capture (with 5ns
setup time for the receiving logic).

OVERVIEW
The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 are innovative, multichannel ADCs. The on-chip resistors provide attenuation
and offset for each channel. The precisely trimmed attenuators ensure an accurate input range. Because they precede the multiplexer, errors due to multiplexer
on-resistance are eliminated.
The input word selects the single ended or differential
inputs for each channel or pair of channels. Overrange
protection is provided for unselected channels. An
overrange condition on an unused channel will not affect
the conversion result on the selected channel.
CONVERSION DETAILS
The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 use a successive approximation algorithm and an internal sample-and-hold circuit
to convert an analog signal to a 12-/14-/16-bit serial output respectively. The ADCs are 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 the data format.)
The analog signals applied at the MUX input channels are
rescaled by the resistor divider network formed by R1, R2
and R3 as shown below. The rescaled signals appear on
the MUXOUT (Pins 10, 11) which are also connected to the
ADC inputs (Pins 12, 13) under normal operation.

Before starting a conversion, an 8-bit data word is clocked
into the SDI input on the first eight rising SCK edges to
select the MUX address and power down mode. The ADC
enters acquisition mode on the falling edge of the sixth
clock in the 8-bit data word and ends on the rising edge of
the CONVST signal which also starts a conversion (see
Figure 7). A minimum time of 4ms will provide enough time
for the sample-and-hold capacitors to acquire the analog
signal. Once a conversion cycle has begun, it cannot be
restarted.
During the conversion, the internal differential 12-/14-/16bit capacitive DAC output is sequenced by the SAR from the
most significant bit (MSB) to the least significant bit (LSB).
The input is successively compared with the binary
weighted charges supplied by the differential capacitive
DAC. Bit decisions are made by a high speed comparator.
At the end of a conversion, the DAC output balances the
analog input (ADC + – ADC –). The SAR contents (a 12-/14/16-bit data word) which represents the difference of ADC+
and ADC– are loaded into the 12-/14-/16-bit shift register.
DRIVING THE ANALOG INPUTS
The input range for the LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 is
±10V and the MUX inputs are overvoltage protected to
±30V. The input impedance is typically 31kW; therefore, it
should be driven with a low impedance source. Wideband
noise coupling into the input can be minimized by placing
a 3000pF 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
LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856. More detailed information
is available in the Linear Technology data books and online
at www.linear.com.

INTERNAL VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 have an on-chip, temperature compensated, curvature corrected, bandgap reference, which is factory trimmed to 2.50V. The full-scale
range of the LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 is equal to ±10V.
The output of the reference is connected to the input of a
gain of 1.6384x buffer through an 8k resistor (see Figure
3). The input to the buffer or the output of the reference is

available at VREF (Pin 15). 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 REFCOMP (Pin 16). The REFCOMP 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 VREF pin and the

the LTC1856. The code transitions occur midway between

In applications where absolute accuracy is important,
offset and full-scale errors can be adjusted to zero during
a calibration sequence. Offset error must be adjusted
before full-scale error. Zero offset is achieved by adjusting
the offset applied to the “–” input. For single-ended inputs,
this offset should be applied to the COM pin. For differential inputs, the “–” input is dictated by the MUX address.
For zero offset error, apply – 0.5LSB to the “+” input and
adjust the offset at the “–” input until the output code
flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111
1111 1111 for the LTC1856, between 00 0000 0000 0000
and 11 1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1855 and between
0000 0000 0000 and 1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1854.
For full-scale adjustment, an input voltage of FS – 1.5LSBs
should be applied to the “+” input and the appropriate
reference adjusted until the output code flickers between
0111 1111 1111 1110 and 0111 1111 1111 1111 for the
LTC1856, between 01 1111 1111 1110 and 01 1111 1111
1111 for the LTC1855 and between 0111 1111 1110 and
0111 1111 1111 for the LTC1854.
These adjustments as well as the factory trims affect all
channels. The channel-to-channel offset and gain error
matching are guaranteed by design to meet the specifications in the Converter Characteristics table.

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 MUX 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 1LSB for the LTC1856.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
Internal Clock
The ADC has an internal clock that is trimmed to achieve
a typical conversion time of 4ms. No external adjustments
are required and, with the maximum acquisition time of 4ms,
throughput performance of 100ksps is assured.
3V Input/Output Compatible
The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 operate on a 5V supply,
which makes the devices easy to interface to 5V digital
systems. These devices can also interface to 3V digital
systems: the digital input pins (SCK, SDI, CONVST and
RD) of the LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 recognize 3V or
5V inputs. The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 have a dedi-
cated output supply pin (OVDD) that controls the output
swings of the digital output pins (SDO, BUSY) and allows
the part to interface to either 3V or 5V digital systems. The
SDO output is two’s complement.
Timing and Control
Conversion start and data read are controlled by two
digital inputs: CONVST and RD. To start a conversion and
put the sample-and-hold into the hold mode bring CONVST
high for at least 40ns. Once initiated it cannot be restarted
until the conversion is complete. Converter status is
indicated by the BUSY output, which goes low while the
conversion is in progress.
Figures 6a and 6b show two different modes of operation
for the LTC1856. For the 12-bit LTC1854 and 14-bit
LTC1855, the last four and two bits of the SDO will output
zeros, respectively. In mode 1 (Figure 6a), RD is tied low.
The rising edge of CONVST starts the conversion. The data
outputs are always enabled. The MSB of the data output is
available after the conversion. In mode 2 (Figure 6b),
CONVST and RD are tied together. The rising edge of the
CONVST signal starts the conversion. Data outputs are in
three-state at this time. When the conversion is complete
(BUSY goes high), CONVST and RD go low to enable the
data output for the previous conversion.

SERIAL DATA INPUT (SDI) INTERFACE
The LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 communicate with microprocessors and other external circuitry via a synchronous, full duplex, 3-wire serial interface (see Figure 7).
The shift clock (SCK) synchronizes the data transfer with
each bit being transmitted on the falling SCK edge and
captured on the rising SCK edge in both transmitting and
receiving systems. The data is transmitted and received
simultaneously (full duplex).
An 8-bit input word is shifted into the SDI input which
configures the LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856 for the next
conversion. Simultaneously, the result of the previous
conversion is output on the SDO line. At the end of the data
exchange the requested conversion begins by applying a
rising edge on CONVST. 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 conversion from the input word requesting it.

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. Both the “+” and “–” inputs are sampled simultaneously so common mode noise is rejected. Bits 5 and 6
of the input words are Don’t Care bits.
POWER DOWN SELECTION (NAP, SLEEP)
The last two bits of the input word (Nap and Sleep) determine the power shutdown mode of the LTC1854/LTC1855/
LTC1856. See Table 2. Nap mode is selected when Nap =
1 and Sleep = 0. The previous conversion result will be
clocked out and a conversion will occur before entering
the Nap mode. The Nap mode starts at the end of the conversion which is indicated by the rising edge of the BUSY
signal. Nap mode lasts until the falling edge of the 2nd SCK
(see Figure 9). Automatic nap will be achieved if Nap = 1
is selected each time an input word is written to the ADC.

Sleep
Sleep mode will occur when Sleep = 1 is selected,
regardless of the selection of the Nap input. The previous
conversion result can be clocked out and the Sleep mode
will start on the falling edge of the last (16th) SCK. Notice
that the CONVST should stay either high or low in sleep
mode (see Figure 10). To wake up from the sleep mode,
apply a rising edge on the CONVST signal and then apply
Sleep = 0 on the next SDI word and the part will wake up
on the falling edge of the last (16th) SCK (see Figure 11).
In Sleep mode, all bias currents are shut down and only the
power on reset circuit and leakage currents (about 10mA)
remain. Sleep mode wake-up time is dependent on the
value of the capacitor connected to the REFCOMP (Pin 16).
The wake-up time is typically 40ms with the recommended 10mF capacitor connected on the REFCOMP pin.
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 12 shows
a typical LTC1856 FFT plot which yields a SINAD of 87dB
and THD of – 101dB.

SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION 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 12 shows a typical SINAD of 87dB with
a 100kHz sampling rate and a 1kHz input.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental
itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency
band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD is
expressed as:
V22 + V32 + V42 ... + VN2
THD = 20log
V1
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics.

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 LTC1854/LTC1855/LTC1856, 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.
In applications where the MUX is connected to the ADC, it
is possible to get noise coupling into the ADC from the
trace connecting the MUXOUT to the ADC. Therefore,
reducing the length of the traces connecting the MUXOUT
pins (Pins 10, 11) to the ADC pins (Pins 12, 13) can
minimize the problem. The unused MUX inputs should be
grounded to prevent noise coupling into the inputs.
Figure 13 shows the power supply grounding that will help
obtain the best performance from the 12-bit/14-bit/16-bit
ADCs. Pay particular attention to the design of the analog
and digital ground planes. The DGND pin of the LTC1854/

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LTC1855/LTC1856 can be tied to the analog ground plane.
Placing the bypass capacitor as close as possible to the
power supply pins, the reference 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 ADC through a wide, low inductance path.
