The on-chip track-and-hold function assures very good dynamic performance without the need for external components. The input drive requirements are minimized due to the SPT7938’s low input capacitance of only 20 pF. Power dissipation is extremely low at only 170 mW typical at 40 MSPS with a power supply of +5.0 V. The digital outputs are +3 V or +5 V, and are user selectable. The SPT7938 has incorporated proprietary circuit design and CMOS processing technologies to achieve its advanced performance. Inputs and outputs are TTL/CMOS compatible to interface with TTL/CMOS logic systems. Output data format is straight binary. The SPT7938 is available in a 28-lead SSOP package over the industrial temperature range.

Figure 2 shows the typical interface requirements when using the SPT7938 in normal circuit operation. The following sections provide descriptions of the major functions and outline critical performance criteria to consider for achieving the optimal device performance. POWER SUPPLIES AND GROUNDING CADEKA suggests that both the digital (DV ) and the anaDD log (AVDD) supply voltages on the SPT7938 be derived from a single analog supply as shown in figure 2. A separate digital supply should be used for the digital output driver supply (OVDD) and all interface circuitry. CADEKA suggests using this power supply configuration to prevent a possible latchup condition on power up. In addition, the power supplies must be powered up before the analog input is applied. SPT7938 5 5/24/00 Interfacing Logic OPERATING DESCRIPTION The general architecture for the CMOS ADC is shown in the block diagram. The design contains 18 identical successive approximation ADC sections (all operating in parallel), an 18-phase clock generator, a 13-bit 18:1 digital output multiplexer, correction logic, and a voltage reference generator which provides common reference levels for each ADC section. The high sample rate is achieved by using multiple SAR ADC sections in parallel, each of which samples the input signal in sequence. Each ADC uses 18 clock cycles to complete a conversion. The clock cycles are allocated as follows: Table II – Clock Cycles Clock 1 2 3 4 5-17 18 Operation Reference zero sampling Auto-zero comparison Auto-calibrate comparison Input sample 13-bit SAR conversion Data transfer VOLTAGE REFERENCE The SPT7938 requires the use of a single external voltage reference for driving the high side of the reference ladder. It must be within the range of 3 V to 5 V. The lower side of the ladder is typically tied to AGND (0.0 V), but can be run up to 2.0 V with a second reference. The analog input voltage fullscale range will track the total voltage difference measured between the ladder sense lines, VRHS and VRLS. For optimum performance the full-scale voltage range (VRHS–VRLS) should be between 3 V to 5 V. Force and sense taps are provided to ensure accurate and stable setting of the upper and lower ladder sense line voltages across part-to-part and temperature variations. By using the configuration shown in figure 3, offset and gain errors of less than ±3 LSB can be obtained. Figure 3 – Ladder Force/Sense Circuit 1 AGND + – 2 VRHF 3 VRHS 6 + – The 18-phase clock, which is derived from the input clock, synchronizes these events. The timing signals for adjacent ADC sections are shifted by one clock cycle so that the analog input is sampled on every cycle of the input clock by exactly one ADC section. After 18 clock periods, the timing cycle repeats. The latency from analog input sample to the corresponding digital output is 14 clock cycles. • Since only 18 comparators are used, a huge power savings is realized. • The auto-zero operation is done using a closed loop system that uses multiple samples of the comparator’s response to a reference zero. • The auto-calibrate operation, which calibrates the gain of the MSB reference and the LSB reference, is also done with a closed loop system. Multiple samples of the gain error are integrated to produce a calibration voltage for each ADC section. • Capacitive displacement currents, which can induce sampling error, are minimized since only one comparator samples the input during a clock cycle. • The total input capacitance is very low since sections of the converter which are not sampling the signal are isolated from the input by transmission gates. 4 5 N/C VRLS 6 VRLF 7 VIN All capacitors are 0.01 µF SPT7938 5/24/00 Figure 4 – Simplified Reference Ladder Drive Circuit Without Force/Sense Circuit +4.0 V External Reference VRHS (+3.98 V) ANALOG INPUT VIN is the analog input. The input voltage range is from VRLS to VRHS (typically 4.0 V) and will scale proportionally with respect to the voltage reference. (See the Voltage Reference section.) The drive requirements for the analog inputs are very minimal when compared to most other converters due to the SPT7938’s extremely low input capacitance of only 20 pF and very high input resistance in excess of 25 kΩ. 21 mV R/2 R R R R=30 Ω (typ) All capacitors are 0.01 µF R The analog input should be protected through a series resistor and diode clamping circuit as shown in figure 5. To prevent possible latch-up condition, the power supplies must be powered up before the input is applied. Figure 5 – Recommended Input Protection Circuit +V AVDD R R VRLS (0.050 V) VRLF (AGND) 0.0 V 50 mV R/2 D1 Buffer 47 Ω D2 ADC In cases in which wider variations in offset and gain can be tolerated, VRef can be tied directly to VRHF and AGND can be tied directly to VRLF as shown in figure 4. Decouple force and sense lines to AGND with a 0.01 µF capacitor (chip cap preferred) to minimize high-frequency noise injection. If this simplified configuration is used, the following considerations should be taken into account: The reference ladder circuit shown in figure 4 is a simplified representation of the actual reference ladder with force and sense taps shown. Due to the actual internal structure of the ladder, the voltage drop from VRHF to VRHS is not equivalent to the voltage drop from VRLF to VRLS. Typically, the top side voltage drop for VRHF to VRHS will equal: VRHF – VRHS = 0.5% of (VRHF – VRLF) (typical), and the bottom side voltage drop for VRLS to VRLF will equal: VRLS – VRLF = 1.25% of (VRHF – VRLF) (typical). Figure 4 shows an example of expected voltage drops for a specific case. VREF of 4.0 V is applied to VRHF and VRLF is tied to AGND. A 21 mV drop is seen at VRHS (= 3.98 V) and a 50 mV increase is seen at VRLS (= 0.050 V). –V D1 = D2 = Hewlett Packard HP5712 or equivalent CALIBRATION The SPT7938 uses a user-transparent, auto-calibration scheme to ensure 12-bit accuracy over time and temperature. Gain and offset errors are continually adjusted to 12-bit accuracy during device operation. Upon powerup, the SPT7938 begins its calibration algorithm. In order to achieve the calibration accuracy required, the offset and gain adjustment step size is a fraction of a 12bit LSB. Since the calibration algorithm is an oversampling process, a minimum of 10,000 clock cycles are required. This results in a minimum calibration time upon power-up of 250 µsec (for a 40 MHz clock). Once calibrated, the SPT7938 remains calibrated over time and temperature. Since the calibration cycles are initiated on the rising edge of the clock, the clock must be continuously applied for the SPT7938 to remain in calibration.

This feature makes it possible to drive the SPT7938’s TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs with the user’s logic system supply. The format of the output data (D0–D11) is straight binary. (See table III.) The outputs are latched on the rising edge of CLK. These outputs can be switched into a tri-state mode by bringing EN high.

This circuit provides ESD robustness to 3.5 kV and prevents latch-up under severe discharge conditions without degrading analog transition times. (Ø indicates the flickering bit between logic 0 and 1). OVERRANGE OUTPUT The Overrange Output (D12) is an indication that the analog input signal has exceeded the positive full-scale input voltage by 1 LSB. When this condition occurs, D12 will switch to logic 1. All other data outputs (D0 to D11) will remain at logic 1 as long as D12 remains at logic 1. This feature makes it possible to include the SPT7938 in higher resolution systems. CLOCK INPUT The SPT7938 is driven from a single-ended TTL-input clock. The duty cycle of the clock should be kept as close to 50% (±5%) as possible.
