DESCRIPTION
TYPE (1)
PARALLEL INTERFACE (PAR/SER = 0)
SERIAL INTERFACE (PAR/SER = 1)
P
Analog ground; connect to the analog ground plane.
36
DI
Auto-sleep enable input.
When low, the device operates in normal mode.
When high, the device functions in auto-sleep mode where the hold mode and the actual conversion is activated
six conversion clock (tCCLK) cycles after issuing a conversion start using a CONVST_x. This mode is
recommended to save power if the device runs at a lower data rate; see the Reset and Power-Down Modes
section for more details.
4, 14, 45,
52, 57, 61
P
Analog power supply.
Decouple according to the Power Supply Recommendations section.
BUSY/INT
35
DO
When CONFIG bit C27 = 0 (BUSY/INT), this pin is a converter busy status output.
This pin transitions high when a conversion is started and transitions low for a single conversion clock cycle
(tCCLK) whenever a channel pair conversion is completed and stays low when the conversion of the last channel
pair completes.
When bit C27 = 1 (BUSY/INT in CONFIG), this pin is an interrupt output. This pin transitions high after a
conversion completes and remains high until the next read access. This mode can only be used if all eight
channels are sampled simultaneously (all CONVST_x tied together). The polarity of the BUSY/INT output can be
changed using the C26 bit (BUSY L/H) in the Configuration register.
CH_A0
42
AI
Analog input of channel A0; channel A is the master channel pair that is always active.
The input voltage range is controlled by the RANGE pin in hardware mode or by Configuration register (CONFIG)
bit C24 (RANGE_A) in software mode. In cases where channel pairs of the device are used at different data
rates, channel pair A must always run at the highest data rate.
CH_A1
47
AI
Analog input of channel A1; channel A is the master channel pair that is always active.
The input voltage range is controlled by the RANGE pin in hardware mode or by CONFIG bit C24 (RANGE_A) in
software mode. In cases where channel pairs of the device are used at different data rates, channel pair A must
always run at the highest data rate.

All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 1.5 ns (10% to 90% of DVDD) and timed from a voltage level of (VIL + VIH) / 2.
The device runs with an internal conversion clock. Data can be retrieved after the maximum conversion time tCONV(max), independently
from the BUSY signal. When referring the data readout to the falling edge of the BUSY signal, tBUFS(min) must be taken into account (see
the Data Readout and BUSY/INT Signal section).

9 Detailed Description
9.1 Overview
The ADS85x8 series includes eight 12-, 14-, and 16-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that operate based
on the successive approximation register (SAR) architecture. This architecture is designed on the charge
redistribution principle that inherently includes a sample-and-hold function. The eight analog inputs are grouped
into four channel pairs. These channel pairs can be sampled and converted simultaneously, preserving the
relative phase information of the signals of each pair. Separate conversion start signals allow simultaneous
sampling on each channel pair of four, six, or eight channels. These devices accept single-ended, bipolar analog
input signals in the selectable ranges of ±4 VREF or ±2 VREF with an absolute value of up to ±12 V; see the
Analog Inputs section.
The devices offer an internal 2.5-V or 3-V reference source followed by a 10-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC)
that allows the reference voltage VREF to be adjusted in 2.44-mV or 2.93-mV steps, respectively.
The ADS85x8 also offer a selectable parallel or serial interface that can be used in hardware or software mode;
see the Device Configuration section for details. The Analog and Digital sections describe the functionality and
control of the device in detail.

9.3 Feature Description
9.3.1 Analog
This section addresses the analog input circuit, the ADCs and control signals, and the reference design of the
device.
9.3.1.1 Analog Inputs
The inputs and the converters are of single-ended bipolar type. The absolute voltage range can be selected
using the RANGE pin (in hardware mode) or RANGE_x bits (in software mode) in the Configuration (CONFIG)
register to either ±4 VREF or ±2 VREF. With the internal reference set to 2.5 V (VREF bit C13 = 0 in the
CONFIG register), the input voltage range can be ±10 V or ±5 V. With the internal reference source set to 3 V
(CONFIG bit C13 = 1), an input voltage range of ±12 V or ±6 V can be configured. The logic state of the RANGE
pin is latched with the falling edge of BUSY (if CONFIG bit C26 = 0).
The input current on the analog inputs depends on the actual sample rate, input voltage, and signal source
impedance. Essentially, the current into the analog inputs charges the internal capacitor array only during the
sampling period (tACQ). The source of the analog input voltage must be able to charge the input capacitance of
10 pF in ±4-VREF mode or of 20 pF in ±2-VREF mode to a 12-, 14-, or 16-bit accuracy level within the
acquisition time; see Figure 35. During the conversion period, there is no further input current flow and the input
impedance is greater than 1 MΩ. To ensure a defined start condition, the sampling capacitors of the ADS85x8
are pre-charged to a fixed internal voltage before switching into sampling mode.
To maintain the linearity of the converter, the inputs must always remain within the specified range defined in the
Electrical Characteristics table. The minimum –3-dB bandwidth of the driving operational amplifier can be
calculated using Equation 1:
ln(2)(n + 1)
f3dB =
2ptACQ
where
•
n = 12, 14, or 16; n is the resolution of the ADS85x8
(1)
With a minimum acquisition time of tACQ = 280 ns, the required minimum bandwidth of the driving amplifier is 5.2
MHz for the ADS8528, 6.0 MHz for the ADS8548, or 6.7 MHz for the ADS8568. The required bandwidth can be
lower if the application allows a longer acquisition time. A gain error occurs if a given application does not fulfill
the bandwidth requirement shown in Equation 1.
A driving operational amplifier may not be required if the impedance of the signal source (RSOURCE) fulfills the
requirement of Equation 2:
tACQ
RSOURCE <
- (RSER + RSW)
CS ln(2)(n + 1)
where
•
•
•
•
n = 12, 14, or 16; n is the resolution of the ADC
CS = 10 pF is the sample capacitor value in VIN = ±4-VREF mode
RSER = 200 Ω is the input resistor value
and RSW = 130 Ω is the switch resistance value
(2)
With a minimum acquisition time of tACQ = 280 ns, the maximum source impedance must be less than 2.7 kΩ for
the ADS8528, 2.3 kΩ for the ADS8548, and 2.0 kΩ for the ADS8568 in ±4V-REF mode, or less than 1.2 kΩ for
the ADS8528, 1.0 kΩ for the ADS8548, and 0.8 kΩ for the ADS8568 in ±2-VREF mode. The source impedance
can be higher if the application allows a longer acquisition time.
9.3.1.2 Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)
The device includes eight ADCs that operate with either an internal or an external conversion clock.

Feature Description (continued)
9.3.1.3 Conversion Clock
The device uses either an internally-generated (CCLK) or an external (XCLK) conversion clock signal (in
software mode only). In default mode, the device generates an internal clock. In this case, a complete conversion
including the pre-charging of the sample capacitors takes 19 to 20 clock cycles, depending on the setup time of
the incoming CONVST_x signal with relation to the CCLK rising edge.
When the CLKSEL bit is set high (CONFIG bit C29), an external conversion clock can be applied on pin 34. A
complete conversion process requires 19 clock cycles in this case if the tSCVX timing requirement is fulfilled. The
external clock can remain low between conversions.
If the application requires lowest power dissipation at low data rates, using the auto-sleep mode activated with
pin 36 (ASLEEP) is recommended. In this case, a conversion cycle takes up to 26 clock cycles (see the Reset
and Power-Down Modes section for more details).
9.3.1.4 CONVST_x
The analog inputs of each channel pair (CH_x0, CH_x1) are held with the rising edge of the corresponding
CONVST_x signal. The conversion automatically starts with the next rising edge of the conversion clock.
CONVST_A is a master conversion start that resets the internal state machine and causes the data output to
start with the result of channel A0. In cases where channel pairs of the device are used at different data rates,
CONVST_A must always be the one used at the highest frequency.
A conversion start must not be issued during an ongoing conversion on the corresponding channel pair.
However, conversions are allowed to be initiated on other input pairs; see the Sequential Operation section for
more details.
If a parallel interface is used, the content of the output port depends on which CONVST_x signals are issued.
Figure 36 shows examples of different scenarios with all channel pairs active.

Feature Description (continued)
9.3.1.5 Data Readout and BUSY/INT Signal
The BUSY signal indicates if a conversion is in progress. The BUSY signal goes high with a rising edge of any
CONVST_x signal and returns low again when the last channel pair completes the conversion cycle.
When operating the device with an external clock (CONFIG bit 29, CLKSEL = 1), data readout can be initiated
immediately after the falling edge of the BUSY signal or after 19 complete conversion clock cycles (XCLK),
respectively.
When using the device with an internal conversion clock (CONFIG bit 29, CLKSEL = 0), data can be retrieved
after tCONV(max) independently from the BUSY signal. In case the data readout is referred to the falling edge of the
BUSY signal, the readout sequence cannot start before tBUFS/BUCS after the falling edge, corresponding to 1
CCLK cycle (for example, 86 ns for the ADS8568).
In contrast, the INT signal goes high when a new conversion result is loaded in the output register (which occurs
when the conversion completes) and remains high until the next read access, as shown in Figure 37.
The polarity of the BUSY/INT signal can be changed using CONFIG bit C26. The mode of pin 35 can be
controlled using CONFIG bit C27.

The four channel pairs of the ADS8528, ADS8548, and ADS8568 can run in sequential mode, with the
corresponding CONVST_x signals interleaved. In this case, the BUSY output transitions low for a single
conversion clock cycle (tCCLK) whenever a channel pair completes a conversion. BUSY finally remains low when
the conversion of the last channel pair completes. Figure 38 shows the behavior of the BUSY output in this
mode.

Figure 38. Sequential Operation Timing Diagram
For best performance, operation with an external clock is recommended (CONFIG bit 29, CLKSEL = 1). Initiate
each conversion start during the high phase of the external clock; see Figure 40.
The time between two CONVST_x pulses must be at least one conversion clock cycle. In case the skew of the
CONVST_x signals is less than one conversion clock cycle, the data readout cannot be started before tCCLK after
the falling edge of the BUSY signal.
9.3.1.7 Reference
The ADS85x8 provides an internal, low-drift, 2.5-V reference source. To increase the input voltage range, the
reference voltage can be switched to 3-V mode using the VREF bit (CONFIG bit C13). The reference feeds a 10bit string-DAC controlled by the REFDAC[9:0] bits in the Configuration (CONFIG) register. The buffered DAC
output is connected to the REFIO pin. In this way, the voltage at this pin is programmable in 2.44-mV steps
(2.92 mV in 3-V mode) and adjustable to the applications needs without additional external components. The
actual output voltage can be calculated using Equation 3:
Range ´ (Code + 1)
VREF =
1024
where

Range = the chosen maximum reference voltage output range (2.5 V or 3 V)

Feature Description (continued)
Table 1 lists some examples of internal reference DAC settings with a reference range set to 2.5 V. However, to
ensure proper performance, the DAC output voltage must not be programmed below 0.5 V.
Decouple the buffered output of the DAC with a 100-nF capacitor (minimum); for best performance, a 470-nF
capacitor is recommended. If the internal reference is placed into power-down (default), an external reference
voltage can drive the REFIO pin.

The voltage at the REFIO pin is buffered with four internal amplifiers, one for each ADC pair. The output of each
buffer must be decoupled with a 10-µF capacitor between the pin pairs of 3 and 6, 43 and 46, 50 and 53, and 60
and 63. The 10-µF capacitors are available as ceramic 0805-SMD components and in X5R quality.
The internal reference buffers can be powered down to decrease the power dissipation of the device. In this
case, external reference drivers can be connected to the REFAP, REFBP, REFCP, and REFDP pins. With 10-µF
decoupling capacitors, the minimum required bandwidth can be calculated using Equation 4:
ln(2)
f3dB =
2ptCONV
(4)
With the minimum tCONV of 1.33 µs, the external reference buffers require a minimum bandwidth of 83 kHz.

This section describes the digital control and the timing of the device in detail.
9.3.2.1 Device Configuration

SBAS543C – AUGUST 2011 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2016
Parallel Interface
To use the device with the parallel interface, hold the PAR/SER pin low. The maximum achievable data
throughput rate is 650 kSPS for the ADS8528, 600 kSPS for the ADS8548, and 510 kSPS for the ADS8568 in
this case.
Access to the ADS85x8 is controlled as illustrated in Figure 2 and Figure 3.
9.3.2.3 Serial Interface
The serial interface mode is selected by setting the PAR/SER pin high. In this case, each data transfer starts with
the falling edge of the frame synchronization input (FS). The conversion results are presented on the serial data
output pins SDO_A (always active), SDO_B, SDO_C, and SDO_D, depending on the selections made using the
SEL_xx pins. Starting with the most significant bit (MSB), the output data are changed with the SCLK falling
edge. The ADS8528 and ADS8548 output data maintain the LSB-aligned, 16-bit format with leading bits
containing the extended sign (see Table 3). Serial data input SDI are latched with the SCLK falling edge.
The serial interface can be used with one, two, or four output ports. Port SDO_B can be enabled using pin 27
(SEL_B) and ports SDO_C and SDO_D are enabled using pin 28 (SEL_CD). If all four serial data output ports
are selected, data can be read with either two 16-bit data transfers or with a single 32-bit data transfer. The data
of channels CH_x0 are available first, followed by data from channels CH_x1. The maximum achievable data
throughput rate is 480 kSPS for the ADS8528, 450 kSPS for the ADS8548, and 400 kSPS for the ADS8568 in
this case.
If the application allows a data transfer using two ports only, the SDO_A and SDO_B outputs are used. The
device outputs data from channel CH_A0 followed by CH_A1, CH_C0, and CH_C1 on SDO_A; data from
channel CH_B0 followed by CH_B1, CH_D0, and CH_D1 occur on SDO_B. In this case, a data transfer of four
16-bit words, two 32-bit words, or one continuous 64-bit word is supported. The maximum achievable data
throughput rate is 360 kSPS for the ADS8528, 345 kSPS for the ADS8548, and 315 kSPS for the ADS8568 in
this case.
The output SDO_A is always active and exclusively used if only one serial data port is used in the application.
Data are available in the following order: CH_A0, CH_A1, CH_B0, CH_B1, CH_C0, CH_C1, CH_D0, and
CH_D1. Data can be read using eight 16-bit transfers, four 32-bit transfers, two 64-bit transfers, or a single 128bit transfer. The maximum achievable data throughput rate is 235 kSPS for the ADS8528, 230 kSPS for the
ADS8548 and 215 kSPS for the ADS8568 in this case. Figure 1 and Figure 39 illustrate all possible scenarios in
more detail.

The data output format of the ADS85x8 is binary twos complement, as shown in Table 3. For the ADS8528 and
ADS8548 (that deliver 12-bit or 14-bit conversion results, respectively), the leading bits of either the 16-bit frame
(serial interface) or the output pins (DB[15:12] for the ADS8528 or DB[15:14] for the ADS8548 in parallel mode)

9.4 Device Functional Modes
9.4.1 Hardware Mode
With the HW/SW input (pin 41) set low, the device functions are controlled via the pins and, optionally,
Configuration register bits C30, C29, C[27:26], C22, C20, C18, C14 (in parallel interface mode only), C13, and
C[9:0].
The device can generally be used in hardware mode but can be switched to software mode to initialize or adjust
the Configuration register settings (for example, the internal reference DAC) and back to hardware mode
thereafter.
9.4.2 Software Mode
When the HW/SW input is set high, the device operates in software mode with functionality set only by the
Configuration register bits (corresponding pin settings are ignored).
If the parallel interface is used, an update of all Configuration register settings is performed by issuing two 16-bit
write accesses on pins DB[15:0] (to avoid losing data, the entire sequence must be finished before starting a new
conversion). Do not hold CS low during these two accesses. To enable the actual update of the register settings,
the first bit (C31) must be set to 1 during the access.
If the serial interface is used, the update of the register contents can be performed continuously (combined
read/write access). Optionally, to reduce the data transfer on the SDI line and the electromagnetic interference
(EMI) of the system, the SDI input can be pulled low when a register update is not required. Figure 40 illustrates
the different Configuration register update options.

9.4.3 Daisy-Chain Mode
The serial interface of the ADS85x8 supports a daisy-chain feature that allows cascading of multiple devices to
minimize the board space requirements and simplify routing of the data and control lines. In this case, the
DB3/DCIN_A, DB2/DCIN_B, DB1/DCIN_C, and DB0/DCIN_D pins are used as serial data inputs for channels A,
B, C, and D, respectively. Figure 41 shows an example of a daisy-chain connection of three devices sharing a
common CONVST line to allow simultaneous sampling of 24 analog channels along with the corresponding
timing diagram.
To activate the daisy-chain mode, the DCEN pin must be pulled high. However, the DCEN of the first device in
the chain must remain low.
In applications where not all channel pairs are used, declaring the device with disabled channel pairs to be the
first in the daisy-chain is recommended.

9.4.4 Reset and Power-Down Modes
The device supports two reset mechanisms: a power-on reset (POR) and a pin-controlled reset (RESET) that
can be issued using pin 10. Both the POR and RESET function as a master reset that causes any ongoing
conversion to be interrupted, the Configuration register content to be set to the default value, and all channels to
be switched into sample mode.
When the device is powered up, POR sets the device in default mode when AVDD reaches 1.2 V. In normal
operation, glitches on the AVDD supply below this threshold trigger a device reset.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
The entire device, except for the digital interface, can be powered down by pulling the STBY pin low (pin 9). Data
can be retrieved when in standby mode because the digital interface section remains active. To power the device
on again, the STBY pin must be brought high. The device is ready to start a new conversion after the 10 ms
required to activate and settle the internal circuitry. This user-controlled approach can be used in applications
that require lower data throughput rates at lowest power dissipation. The content of CONFIG is not changed
during standby mode and is not required to perform a reset after returning to normal operation.
Although standby mode affects the entire device, each device channel pair (except channel pair A, which is the
master channel pair and is always active) can also be individually switched off by setting the Configuration
register bits C22, C20, and C18 (PD_x). If a certain channel pair is powered-down in this manner, the output
register is disabled as shown in Figure 42. When reactivated, the relevant channel pair requires 10 ms to fully
settle before starting a new conversion.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
Auto-sleep mode is enabled by pulling pin 36 (ASLEEP) high. If auto-sleep mode is enabled, the ADS85x8
automatically reduce the current requirement to 7 mA (IAVDD) after finishing a conversion; thus, the end of
conversion actually activates this power-down mode. Triggering a new conversion by applying a positive
CONVST_x edge starts the wake-up sequence to put the device back into normal operation. At the beginning, all
required building blocks power-up and the sampling switches close again. This sequence takes six to seven
conversion clock cycles of either the internal or external clock. During this time, the sampling capacitance must
be recharged to the input signal with the required 12-bit, 14-bit, or 16-bit accuracy level. The bandwidth
requirements of the driving operational amplifier described in the Analog Inputs section must be fulfilled. At the
end of the sequence, the new sample is taken and the conversion starts automatically, as shown in Figure 43.
Therefore, a complete conversion process takes 25 to 26 conversion clock cycles; thus, the maximum throughput
rate in auto-sleep mode is reduced to a maximum of 400 kSPS for the ADS8528, 375 kSPS for the ADS8548,
and 330 kSPS for the ADS8568 in serial interface mode. In parallel mode, the maximum data rates are
510 kSPS for the ADS8528, 470 kSPS for the ADS8548, and 400 kSPS for the ADS8568. If enabled, the internal
reference remains active during auto-sleep mode. Table 4 compares the analog current requirements of the
device in different modes.

10 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
10.1 Application Information
The ADS85x8 enables high-precision measurement of up to eight analog signals simultaneously. The Typical
Application section summarizes some of the typical use cases for the ADS85x8 and the main steps and
components used around the analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
10.2 Typical Application
The accurate measurement of electrical variables in a power grid is extremely critical because this measurement
helps determine the operating status and running quality of the grid. Such accurate measurements also help
diagnose problems with the power network, thereby enabling prompt solutions and minimizing down time. The
key electrical variables measured in 3-phase power systems are the three line voltages, the neutral voltage at the
load, the three line currents, and the neutral return current; see Figure 45. These variables enable metrology and
power automation systems to determine the amplitude, frequency, and phase information in order to perform
harmonic analysis, power factor calculations, and power quality assessment, among others.

•
begin the design process, a few parameters must be decided upon. The designer must know the following:
Output range of the potential transformers (elements labeled PT1, PT2, and PT3 in Figure 45)
Output range of the current transformers (elements labeled CT1, CT2, and CT3 in Figure 45)
Input impedance required from the analog front-end for each channel
Fundamental frequency of the power system
Number of harmonics that must be acquired, and
Type of signal conditioning required from the analog front-end for each channel
10.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The potential transformers and current transformers used in the system depicted in Figure 45 provide the eight
inputs required. These transformers have a ±10-V output range. Although the PT and CT elements provide
isolation from the power system, the value of RIN is selected as 100 kΩ in order to provide an additional, highimpedance safety element in the current path leading up to the input of the ADC. Moreover, selecting a lowfrequency gain of –1 V/V (as shown in Equation 5) provides a ±10-V output that can be fed into the ADS8568;
therefore, the value of RF is selected as 100 kΩ too.

The primary goal of the acquisition system depicted in Figure 45 is to measure up to 20 harmonics in a 60-Hz
power network. With this goal in mind, the analog front-end must have sufficient bandwidth to measure signals
up to 1260 Hz as shown in Equation 6.
f MAX
( 20 1) 60 Hz

Based on the bandwidth from in Equation 6, the ADS8568 is set to simultaneously sample all six channels at
15.36 kSPS, thus providing enough samples to clearly resolve even the highest harmonic required.
The passband of the configuration shown in Figure 46 is determined by the –3-dB frequency according to
Equation 7. The value of CF is selected as 820 pF because CF is a standard capacitance value available in 0603
size (surface-mount component) and such values, combined with that of RF, result in sufficient bandwidth to
accommodate the required 20 harmonics (at 60 Hz).

The value of R1 is selected as the parallel combination of RIN and RF to prevent the input bias current of the
operational amplifier from generating an offset error.
The value of component C1 is chosen as 0.1 µF to provide a low-impedance path for noise signals that can be
picked up by R1, thus improving the EMI robustness and noise performance of the system.
The OPA2277 is chosen for its low input offset voltage, low drift, bipolar swing, sufficient gain-bandwidth product,
and low quiescent current. For additional information on the procedure to select SAR ADC input drivers, see the
TIPD151 verified design guide, 16-Bit 100-KSPS 4-Channel Multiplexed Data Acquisition System Design Guide.
The charge injection damping circuit is composed by R2 (49.9 Ω) and C2 (370 pF); these components reject highfrequency noise and meet the settling requirements of the ADS8568 input.

11 Power Supply Recommendations
The ADS85x8 require four separate supplies: an analog supply for the ADC (AVDD), the buffer I/O supply for the
digital interface (DVDD), and the two high-voltage supplies driving the analog input circuitry (HVDD and HVSS).
Generally, there are no specific requirements with regard to the power sequencing of the device. However, when
HVDD is supplied before AVDD, the internal electrostatic discharge (ESD) structure conducts, increasing the
IHVDD beyond the specified value until AVDD is applied.
The AVDD supply provides power to the internal circuitry of the ADC. If run at maximum data rate, the IAVDD is
too high to allow use of a passive filter between the digital board supply of the application and the AVDD pins. A
linear regulator is recommended to generate the analog supply voltage. Decouple each AVDD pin to AGND with
a 100-nF ceramic capacitor. In addition, place a single 10-µF capacitor close to the device but without
compromising the placement of the smaller capacitors. Optionally, each supply pin can be decoupled using a
1-µF ceramic capacitor without the requirement of the additional 10-µF capacitor.
The DVDD supply is only used to drive the digital I/O buffers and allows seamless interface with most state-ofthe-art processors and controllers. Resulting from the low IDVDD value, a 10-Ω series resistor can be used on
the DVDD pin to reduce the noise energy from the external digital circuitry influencing the performance of the
device. Place a 1-µF bypass ceramic capacitor (or alternatively, a pair of 100-nF and 10-µF capacitors) between
pins 24 and 25.
The high-voltage supplies (HVSS and HVDD) are connected to the analog inputs. These supplies are not
required to be of symmetrical nature with regard to AGND. Noise and glitches on these supplies directly couple
into the input signals. Place a 100-nF ceramic decoupling capacitor, located as close to the device as possible,
between pins 1, 48, and AGND. An additional 10-µF capacitor is used that must be placed close to the device
but without compromising the placement of the smaller capacitors.
12 Layout
12.1 Layout Guidelines
All ground pins must be connected to a clean ground reference. Keep this connection as short as possible to
minimize the inductance of these paths. Using vias is recommended to connect the pads directly to the
corresponding ground plane. In designs without ground planes, keep the ground trace as wide and as short as
possible to reduce inductance. Avoid connections that are too close to the grounding point of a microcontroller or
digital signal processor.
Depending on the circuit density on the board, placement of the analog and digital components, and the related
current loops, a single solid ground plane for the entire printed circuit board (PCB) or dedicated analog and
digital ground areas can be used. In case of separated ground areas, ensure that a low-impedance connection is
between the analog and digital ground of the ADC by placing a bridge underneath (or next to) the ADC.
Otherwise, even short undershoots on the digital interface with a value less than –300 mV lead to the conduction
of ESD diodes, causing current to flow through the substrate and either degrading the analog performance or
even damaging the device. Using a common ground plane underneath the device is recommended as a local
ground reference for all xGND pins; see Figure 49. During PCB layout, care must be taken to avoid any return
currents crossing sensitive analog areas or signals.
