Signal-To-Noise and Distortion (S/N+D) Ratio—S/N+D is
the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to the
rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for
S/N+D is expressed in decibels.
DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
Acquisition Time—The length of time that the SHA must
remain in the sample mode in order to acquire a full-scale input
step to a given level of accuracy.
Small Signal Bandwidth—The frequency at which the held
output amplitude is 3 dB below the input amplitude, under an
input condition of a 100 mV p-p sine wave.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)—THD is the ratio of the
rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value
of the measured input signal and is expressed as a percentage or
in decibels.
Full Power Bandwidth—The frequency at which the held
output amplitude is 3 dB below the input amplitude, under an
input condition of a 10 V p-p sine wave.
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD)—With inputs consisting
of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb, any device with
nonlinearities will create distortion products, of order (m+n), at
sum and difference frequency of mfa± nfb, where m, n = 0, 1, 2,
3.... Intermodulation terms are those for which m or n is not
equal to zero. For example, the second order terms are (fa+fb)
and (fa–fb), and the third order terms are (2fa+fb), (2fa–fb),
(fa+2fb) and (fa–2fb). The IMD products are expressed as the
decibel ratio of the rms sum of the measured input signals to the
rms sum of the distortion terms. The two signals are of equal
amplitude, and peak value of their sums is –0.5 dB from full
scale. The IMD products are normalized to a 0 dB input signal.
Effective Aperture Delay—The difference between the switch
delay and the analog delay of the SHA channel. A negative
number indicates that the analog portion of the overall delay is
greater than the switch portion. This effective delay represents
the point in time, relative to the hold command, that the input
signal will be sampled.
Aperture Jitter—The variations in aperture delay for
successive samples. Aperture jitter puts an upper limit on the
maximum frequency that can be accurately sampled.
Hold Settling Time—The time required for the output to
settle to within a specified level of accuracy of its final held value
after the hold command has been given.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The AD781 is a complete sample-and hold amplifier that
provides high speed sampling to 12-bit accuracy in less than
700 ns.
Droop Rate—The drift in output voltage while in the hold
mode.
Feedthrough—The attenuated version of a changing input
signal that appears at the output when the SHA is in the hold
mode.
The AD781 is completely self-contained, including an on-chip
hold capacitor, and requires no external components or
adjustments to perform the sampling function. Both input and
output are treated as a single-ended signal, referred to common.
Hold Mode Offset—The difference between the input signal
and the held output. This offset term applies only in the hold
mode and includes the error caused by charge injection and all
other internal offsets. It is specified for an input of 0 V.
The AD781 utilizes a proprietary circuit design which includes a
self-correcting architecture. This sample-and-hold circuit
corrects for internal errors after the hold command has been
given, by compensating for amplifier gain and offset errors, and
charge injection errors. Due to the nature of the design, the
SHA output in the sample mode is not intended to provide an
accurate representation of the input. However, in hold mode,
the internal circuitry is reconfigured to produce an accurately
held version of the input signal. Below is a block diagram of the
AD781.
Tracking Mode Offset—The difference between the input and
output signals when the SHA is in the track mode.
Nonlinearity--The deviation from a straight line on a plot of
input vs. (held) output as referenced to a straight line drawn
between endpoints, over an input range of –5 V and +5 V.
Gain Error—Deviation from a gain of +1 on the transfer
function of input vs. held output.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio—A measure of change in the
held output voltage for a specified change in the positive or
negative supply.
Sampled DC Uncertainty—The internal rms SHA noise that
is sampled onto the hold capacitor.

noise.

VOUT ACQUISITION ACCURACY – %
The AD781 is compatible with 12-bit A-to-D converters in
terms of both accuracy and speed. The fast acquisition time, fast
hold settling time and good output drive capability allow the
AD781 to be used with high speed, high resolution A-to-D
converters like the AD674 and AD7672. The AD781’s fast
acquisition time provides high throughput rates for multichannel
data acquisition systems. Typically, the sample and hold can
acquire a 10 V step in less than 600 ns. Figure 1 shows the
settling accuracy as a function of acquisition time.

ACQUISITION TIME – ns
For applications where it is important to obtain zero offset, the
hold mode offset may be nulled externally at the input to the
A-to-D converter. Adjustment of the offset may be accomplished through the A-to-D itself or by an external amplifier
with offset nulling capability (e.g., AD711). The offset will
change less than 0.5 mV over the specified temperature range.
Figure 1. VOUT Settling vs. Acquisition Time
The hold settling determines the required time, after the hold
command is given, for the output to settle to its final specified
accuracy. The typical settling behavior of the AD781 is shown
in Figure 2. The settling time of the AD781 is sufficiently fast to
allow the SHA, in most cases, to directly drive an A-to-D
converter without the need for an added “start convert” delay.
SUPPLY DECOUPLING AND GROUNDING
CONSIDERATIONS
As with any high speed, high resolution data acquisition system,
the power supplies should be well regulated and free from excessive high frequency noise (ripple). The supply connection to the
AD781 should also be capable of delivering transient currents to
the device. To achieve the specified accuracy and dynamic performance, decoupling capacitors must be placed directly at both
the positive and negative supply pins to common. Ceramic type
0.1 µF capacitors should be connected from VCC and VEE to
common.

HOLD MODE OFFSET
The dc accuracy of the AD781 is determined primarily by the
hold mode offset. The hold mode offset refers to the difference
between the final held output voltage and the input signal at the
time the hold command is given. The hold mode offset arises
from a voltage error introduced onto the hold capacitor by
charge injection of the internal switches. The nominal hold
mode offset is specified for a 0 V input condition. Over the
input range of –5 V to +5 V, the AD781 is also characterized for
an effective gain error and nonlinearity of the held value, as
shown in Figure 3. As indicated by the AD781 specifications,
the hold mode offset is very stable over temperature.

Figure 4. Basic Grounding and Decoupling Diagram
The AD781 does not provide separate analog and digital ground
leads as is the case with most A-to-D converters. The common
pin is the single ground terminal for the device. It is the reference point for the sampled input voltage and the held output
voltage and also the digital ground return path. The common
pin should be connected to the reference (analog) ground of the
A-to-D converter with a separate ground lead. Since the analog
and digital grounds in the AD781 are connected internally, the

NOISE CHARACTERISTICS

8 BITS
Designers of data conversion circuits must also consider the
effect of noise sources on the accuracy of the data acquisition
system. A sample-and-hold amplifier that precedes the A-to-D
converter introduces some noise and represents another source
of uncertainty in the conversion process. The noise from the
AD781 is specified as the total output noise, which includes
both the sampled wideband noise of the SHA in addition to the
band limited output noise. The total output noise is the rms
sum of the sampled dc uncertainty and the hold mode noise. A
plot of the total output noise vs. the equivalent input bandwidth
of the converter being used is given in Figure 5.

HIGH FREQUENCY SAMPLING
Aperture jitter and distortion are the primary factors which limit
frequency domain performance of a sample-and-hold amplifier.
Aperture jitter modulates the phase of the hold command and
produces an effective noise on the sampled analog input. The
magnitude of the jitter induced noise is directly related to the
frequency of the input signal.

The accuracy in sampling high frequency signals is also constrained by the distortion and noise created by the sample-and
hold. The level of distortion increases with frequency and reduces the “effective number of bits” of the conversion.

FREQUENCY – Hz
For best performance, it is important to drive the AD781 analog
input from a low impedance signal source. This enhances the
sampling accuracy by minimizing the analog and digital
crosstalk. Signals which come from higher impedance sources
(e.g., over 5 kΩ) will have a relatively higher level of crosstalk.
For applications where signals have high source impedance, an
operational amplifier buffer in front of the AD781 is required.
The AD711 (precision BiFET op amp) is recommended for
these applications.

Figure 9 shows a typical data acquisition circuit using the
AD781, a high linearity, low aperture jitter SHA and the AD674
a 12-bit high speed ADC. The time between the AD674 status
line going high and the actual start of conversion allows the
AD781 to settle to 0.01%. As a result, the AD674 status line
can be used to control the AD781; only an inverter is needed to
interface the two devices.
