GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7612 is a 16-bit charge redistribution successive
approximation register (SAR), architecture analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) fabricated on Analog Devices, Inc.’s iCMOS
high voltage process. The device is configured through hardware or
via a dedicated write only serial configuration port for input
range and operating mode. The AD7612 contains a high speed
16-bit sampling ADC, an internal conversion clock, an internal
reference (and buffer), error correction circuits, and both serial
and parallel system interface ports. A falling edge on CNVST
samples the analog input on IN+ with respect to a ground
sense, IN−. The AD7612 features four different analog input
ranges and three different sampling modes: warp mode for the
fastest throughput, normal mode for the fastest asynchronous
throughput, and impulse mode where power consumption is
scaled linearly with throughput. Operation is specified from
−40°C to +85°C.

With VIN = 0 V to 5 V or 0 V to 10 V ranges, the input current is typically 70 μA. In all input ranges, the input current scales with throughput. See the Analog Inputs section.
All specified performance is guaranteed up to 750 kSPS throughout, however throughputs up to 900 kSPS can be used with some linearity performance degradation.
Linearity is tested using endpoints, not best fit. All linearity is tested with an external 5 V reference.

LSB means least significant bit. All specifications in LSB do not include the error contributed by the reference.
5
All specifications in decibels are referred to a full-scale range input, FSR. Tested with an input signal at 0.5 dB below full-scale, unless otherwise specified.

Description
Analog Power Ground Pins. Ground reference point for all analog I/O. All analog I/O should be
referenced to AGND and should be connected to the analog ground plane of the system. In addition,
the AGND, DGND, and OGND voltages should be at the same potential.
Analog Power Pins. Nominally 4.75 V to 5.25 V and decoupled with 10 μF and 100 nF capacitors.
Parallel Mode Selection (8-Bit/16-Bit). When high, the LSB is output on D[15:8] and the MSB is output
on D[7:0]; when low, the LSB is output on D[7:0] and the MSB is output on D[15:8].
Straight Binary/Binary Twos Complement Output. When high, the digital output is straight binary.
When low, the MSB is inverted resulting in a twos complement output from its internal shift register.
Conversion Mode Selection. Used in conjunction with the IMPULSE input per the following:

Serial/Parallel Selection Input.
When SER/PAR = low, the parallel mode is selected.
When SER/PAR = high, the serial modes are selected. Some bits of the data bus are used as a serial port
and the remaining data bits are high impedance outputs.
Bit 0 and Bit 1 of the parallel port data output bus. These pins are always outputs regardless of the

= low, RDC/SDIN = low) these inputs can be used to slow down the internally generated serial data
clock that clocks the data output. In other serial modes, these pins are high impedance outputs.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 4 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Clock Source Select. In serial mode, this input is used to select the internally generated
(master) or external (slave) serial data clock for the AD7612 output data.
When EXT/INT = low, master mode; the internal serial data clock is selected on SDCLK output.
When EXT/INT = high, slave mode; the output data is synchronized to an external clock signal (gated by CS)
connected to the SDCLK input.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 5 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Invert Sync Select. In serial master mode (SER/PAR = high, EXT/INT = low). This input is used
to select the active state of the SYNC signal.
When INVSYNC = low, SYNC is active high.
When INVSYNC = high, SYNC is active low.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 6 of the parallel port data output bus.
In all serial modes, invert SDCLK/SCCLK select. This input is used to invert both SDCLK and SCCLK.
When INVSCLK = low, the rising edge of SDCLK/SCCLK are used.
When INVSCLK = high, the falling edge of SDCLK/SCCLK are used.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 7 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Read During Convert. In serial master mode (SER/PAR = high, EXT/INT = low) RDC is used to
select the read mode. Refer to the Master Serial Interface section.
When RDC = low, the current result is read after conversion. Note the maximum throughput is not
attainable in this mode.
When RDC = high, the previous conversion result is read during the current conversion.

Serial Data In. In serial slave mode (SER/PAR = high EXT/INT = high) SDIN can be used as a data input to
daisy-chain the conversion results from two or more ADCs onto a single SDOUT line. The digital data
level on SDIN is output on SDOUT with a delay of 16 SDCLK periods after the initiation of the read sequence.
Input/Output Interface Digital Power Ground. Ground reference point for digital outputs. Should be
connected to the system digital ground ideally at the same potential as AGND and DGND.
Input/Output Interface Digital Power. Nominally at the same supply as the supply of the host interface
2.5 V, 3 V, or 5 V and decoupled with 10 μF and 100 nF capacitors.
Digital Power. Nominally at 4.75 V to 5.25 V and decoupled with 10 μF and 100 nF capacitors. Can be
supplied from AVDD.
Digital Power Ground. Ground reference point for digital outputs. Should be connected to system
digital ground ideally at the same potential as AGND and OGND.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 8 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data output. In all serial modes this pin is used as the serial data output synchronized to SDCLK.
Conversion results are stored in an on-chip register. The AD7612 provides the conversion result, MSB
first, from its internal shift register. The data format is determined by the logic level of OB/2C.
When EXT/INT = low, (master mode) SDOUT is valid on both edges of SDCLK.
When EXT/INT = high, (slave mode).
When INVSCLK = low, SDOUT is updated on SDCLK rising edge.
When INVSCLK = high, SDOUT is updated on SDCLK falling edge.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 9 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Clock. In all serial modes, this pin is used as the serial data clock input or output, dependent
on the logic state of the EXT/INT pin. The active edge where the data SDOUT is updated depends on
the logic state of the INVSCLK pin.

Description
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 10 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Frame Synchronization. In serial master mode (SER/PAR = high, EXT/INT= low), this output
is used as a digital output frame synchronization for use with the internal data clock.
When a read sequence is initiated and INVSYNC = low, SYNC is driven high and remains high while the
SDOUT output is valid.
When a read sequence is initiated and INVSYNC = high, SYNC is driven low and remains low while the
SDOUT output is valid.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 11 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Data Read Error. In serial slave mode (SER/PAR = high, EXT/INT = high), this output is used as an
incomplete data read error flag. If a data read is started and not completed when the current
conversion is complete, the current data is lost and RDERROR is pulsed high.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 12 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Configuration Hardware/Software Select. In serial mode, this input is used to configure
the AD7612 by hardware or software. See the Hardware Configuration section and Software
Configuration section.
When HW/SW = low, the AD7612 is configured through software using the serial configuration register.
When HW/SW = high, the AD7612 is configured through dedicated hardware input pins.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 13 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Configuration Data Input. In serial software configuration mode (SER/PAR = high, HW/SW = low)
this input is used to serially write in, MSB first, the configuration data into the serial configuration
register. The data on this input is latched with SCCLK. See the Software Configuration section.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 14 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Configuration Clock. In serial software configuration mode (SER/PAR = high, HW/SW = low) this
input is used to clock in the data on SCIN. The active edge where the data SCIN is updated depends on
the logic state of the INVSCLK pin. See the Software Configuration section.
In parallel mode, this output is used as Bit 15 of the parallel port data output bus.
Serial Configuration Chip Select. In serial software configuration mode (SER/PAR = high, HW/SW = low)
this input enables the serial configuration port. See the Software Configuration section.
Busy Output. Transitions high when a conversion is started, and remains high until the conversion
is complete and the data is latched into the on-chip shift register. The falling edge of BUSY can be
used as a data ready clock signal. Note that in master read after convert mode (SER/PAR = high,
EXT/INT = low, RDC = low) the busy time changes according to Table 4.
Input Range Select. Used in conjunction with BIPOLAR per the following:
Input Range BIPOLAR TEN

Read Data. When CS and RD are both low, the interface parallel or serial output bus is enabled.
Chip Select. When CS and RD are both low, the interface parallel or serial output bus is enabled. CS is
also used to gate the external clock in slave serial mode (not used for serial programmable port).
Reset Input. When high, reset the AD7612. Current conversion, if any, is aborted. The falling edge of
RESET resets the data outputs to all zero’s (with OB/2C = high) and clears the configuration register.
See the Digital Interface section. If not used, this pin can be tied to OGND.
Power-Down Input. When PD = high, power down the ADC. Power consumption is reduced and
conversions are inhibited after the current one is completed. The digital interface remains active
during power down.
Conversion Start. A falling edge on CNVST puts the internal sample-and-hold into the hold state and
initiates a conversion.
Input Range Select. See description for Pin 30.

TERMINOLOGY
Least Significant Bit (LSB)
The least significant bit, or LSB, is the smallest increment that
can be represented by a converter. For an analog-to-digital converter with N bits of resolution, the LSB expressed in volts is
LSB(V )
VINp-p
2N
Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL)
Linearity error refers to the deviation of each individual code
from a line drawn from negative full-scale through positive fullscale. The point used as negative full-scale occurs a ½ LSB before
the first code transition. Positive full-scale is defined as a level
1½ LSBs beyond the last code transition. The deviation is measured from the middle of each code to the true straight line.
Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL)
In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. Differential
nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It
is often specified in terms of resolution for which no missing
codes are guaranteed.
Bipolar Zero Error
The difference between the ideal midscale input voltage (0 V)
and the actual voltage producing the midscale output code.
Unipolar Offset Error
The first transition should occur at a level ½ LSB above analog
ground. The unipolar offset error is the deviation of the actual
transition from that point.
Full-Scale Error
The last transition (from 111…10 to 111…11) should occur for
an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the nominal full-scale. The fullscale error is the deviation in LSB (or % of full-scale range) of
the actual level of the last transition from the ideal level and
includes the effect of the offset error. Closely related is the gain
error (also in LSB or % of full-scale range), which does not
include the effects of the offset error.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is the ratio of the rms value of the full-scale to
the rms noise measured for an input typically at −60 dB. The
value for dynamic range is expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first five harmonic
components to the rms value of a full-scale input signal and
is expressed in decibels.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SINAD)
SINAD is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to
the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for
SINAD is expressed in decibels.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms amplitude of
the input signal and the peak spurious signal.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB is a measurement of the resolution with a sine wave
input. It is related to SINAD and is expressed in bits by
ENOB = [(SINADdB − 1.76)/6.02]
Aperture Delay
Aperture delay is a measure of the acquisition performance
measured from the falling edge of the CNVST input to when
the input signal is held for a conversion.
Transient Response
The time required for the AD7612 to achieve its rated accuracy
after a full-scale step function is applied to its input.
Reference Voltage Temperature Coefficient
Reference voltage temperature coefficient is derived from the
typical shift of output voltage at 25°C on a sample of parts at the
maximum and minimum reference output voltage (VREF) measured at TMIN, T(25°C), and TMAX. It is expressed in ppm/°C as
TCVREF (ppm/C )
VREF ( Max ) – VREF ( Min)
VREF (25C) (TMAX – TMIN )
106
where:
VREF (Max) = maximum VREF at TMIN, T(25°C), or TMAX.
VREF (Min) = minimum VREF at TMIN, T(25°C), or TMAX.
VREF (25°C) = VREF at 25°C.
TMAX = +85°C.
TMIN = –40°C.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the
rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is
expressed in decibels.

OVERVIEW
CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7612 is a very fast, low power, precise, 16-bit analog-todigital converter (ADC) using successive approximation capacitive
digital-to-analog (CDAC) architecture.
The AD7612 is a successive approximation ADC based on a
charge redistribution DAC. Figure 25 shows the simplified
schematic of the ADC. The CDAC consists of two identical
arrays of 16 binary weighted capacitors, which are connected
to the two comparator inputs.
The AD7612 can be configured at any time for one of four input
ranges and conversion mode with inputs in parallel and serial
hardware modes or by a dedicated write only, SPI-compatible
interface via a configuration register in serial software mode.
The AD7612 uses Analog Device’s patented iCMOS high voltage
process to accommodate 0 to 5 V, 0 to 10 V, ±5 V, and ±10 V
input ranges without the use of conventional thin films. Only
one acquisition cycle, t8, is required for the inputs to latch to the
correct configuration. Resetting or power cycling is not
required for reconfiguring the ADC.
The AD7612 features different modes to optimize performance
according to the applications. It is capable of converting 750,000
samples per second (750 kSPS) in warp mode, 600 kSPS in normal
mode, and 500 kSPS in impulse mode.
The AD7612 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold,
successive approximation ADC that does not exhibit any pipeline or latency, making it ideal for multiple multiplexed channel
applications.
For unipolar input ranges, the AD7612 typically requires three
supplies; VCC, AVDD (which can supply DVDD), and OVDD
which can be interfaced to either 5 V, 3.3 V, or 2.5 V digital logic.
For bipolar input ranges, the AD7612 requires the use of the
additional VEE supply.
During the acquisition phase, terminals of the array tied to the
comparator’s input are connected to AGND via SW+ and SW−.
All independent switches are connected to the analog inputs.
Thus, the capacitor arrays are used as sampling capacitors and
acquire the analog signal on IN+ and IN− inputs. A conversion
phase is initiated once the acquisition phase is complete and the
CNVST input goes low. When the conversion phase begins, SW+
and SW− are opened first. The two capacitor arrays are then
disconnected from the inputs and connected to the REFGND
input. Therefore, the differential voltage between the inputs
(IN+ and IN−) captured at the end of the acquisition phase is
applied to the comparator inputs, causing the comparator to
become unbalanced. By switching each element of the capacitor
array between REFGND and REF, the comparator input varies
by binary weighted voltage steps (VREF/2, VREF/4 through VREF/
65536). The control logic toggles these switches, starting with
the MSB first, in order to bring the comparator back into a
balanced condition.
After the completion of this process, the control logic generates
the ADC output code and brings the BUSY output low.
The device is housed in Pb-free, 48-lead LQFP or tiny LFCSP
7 mm × 7 mm packages that combine space savings with flexibility. In addition, the AD7612 can be configured as either a
parallel or serial SPI-compatible interface.

Impulse Mode
Warp Mode
Setting WARP = high and IMPULSE = low allow the fastest conversion rate up to 750 kSPS. However, in this mode, the full
specified accuracy is guaranteed only when the time between
conversions does not exceed 1 ms. If the time between two
consecutive conversions is longer than 1 ms (after power-up),
the first conversion result should be ignored since in warp mode,
the ADC performs a background calibration during the SAR
conversion process. This calibration can drift if the time between
conversions exceeds 1 ms thus causing the first conversion to
appear offset. This mode makes the AD7612 ideal for applications
where both high accuracy and fast sample rate are required. In
addition, the AD7612 can run up to 900 kSPS throughput with
some performance degradation, mainly dc linearity.
Setting WARP = low and IMPULSE = high uses the lowest power
dissipation mode and allows power saving between conversions.
The maximum throughput in this mode is 500 kSPS and in this
mode, the ADC powers down circuits after conversion making
the AD7612 ideal for battery-powered applications.
TRANSFER FUNCTIONS
Using the OB/2C digital input or via the configuration register,
the AD7612 offers two output codings: straight binary and twos
complement. See Figure 26 and Table 7 for the ideal transfer characteristic and digital output codes for the different analog input
ranges, VIN. Note that when using the configuration register, the
OB/2C input is a don’t care and should be tied to either high or low.

Setting WARP = IMPULSE = low or WARP = IMPULSE = high
allows the fastest mode (600 kSPS) without any limitation on
time between conversions. This mode makes the AD7612 ideal
for asynchronous applications such as data acquisition systems,
where both high accuracy and fast sample rate are required.

The AD7612 features three modes of operation: warp, normal,
and impulse. Each of these modes is more suitable to specific
applications. The mode is configured with the input pins, WARP
and IMPULSE, or via the configuration register. See Table 6 for
the pin details and the Hardware Configuration section and
Software Configuration section for programming the mode
selection with either pins or configuration register. Note that
when using the configuration register, the WARP and IMPULSE
inputs are don’t cares and should be tied to either high or low.

Input Range Selection
In parallel mode and serial hardware mode, the input range is
selected by using the BIPOLAR (bipolar) and TEN (10 Volt range)
inputs. See Table 6 for pin details and the Hardware Configuration
section and Software Configuration section for programming
the mode selection with either pins or configuration register. Note
that when using the configuration register, the BIPOLAR and
TEN inputs are don’t cares and should be tied to either high or low.
Input Structure
For instance, by using IN− to sense a remote signal ground,
ground potential differences between the sensor and the local
ADC ground are eliminated.

Figure 28. AD7612 Simplified Analog Input
The four diodes, D1 to D4, provide ESD protection for the analog
inputs, IN+ and IN−. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog
input signal never exceeds the supply rails by more than 0.3 V,
because this causes the diodes to become forward-biased and to
start conducting current. These diodes can handle a forwardbiased current of 120 mA maximum. For instance, these conditions
could eventually occur when the input buffer’s U1 supplies are
different from AVDD, VCC, and VEE. In such a case, an input
buffer with a short-circuit current limitation can be used to protect
the part although most op amps’ short circuit current is
