GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7983 is a 16-bit, successive approximation, analog-todigital converter (ADC) that operates from a single power
supply, VDD. It contains a low power, high speed, 16-bit
sampling ADC and a versatile serial interface port. On the CNV
rising edge, it samples an analog input IN+ between 0 V to REF
with respect to a ground sense IN−. The reference voltage, REF,
is applied externally and can be set independent of the supply
voltage, VDD. Its power scales linearly with throughput.
The SPI-compatible serial interface also features the ability,
using the SDI input, to daisy-chain several ADCs on a single,
3-wire bus and provides an optional busy indicator. It is
compatible with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, or 5 V logic, using the
separate supply VIO.
The AD7983 is housed in a 10-lead MSOP or a 10-lead LFCSP
with operation specified from −40°C to +85°

Description
Reference Input Voltage. The REF range is from 2.9 V to 5.1 V. It is referred to the GND pin. This pin should
be decoupled closely to the pin with a 10 μF capacitor.
Power Supply.
Analog Input. It is referred to IN−. The voltage range, for example, the difference between IN+ and IN−, is
0 V to VREF.
Analog Input Ground Sense. To be connected to the analog ground plane or to a remote sense ground.
Power Supply Ground.
Convert Input. This input has multiple functions. On its risng edge, it initiates the conversions and
selects the interface mode of the part: chain or CS mode. In CS mode, it enables the SDO pin when low.
In chain mode, the data should be read when CNV is high.
Serial Data Output. The conversion result is output on this pin. It is synchronized to SCK.
Serial Data Clock Input. When the part is selected, the conversion result is shifted out by this clock.
Serial Data Input. This input provides multiple features. It selects the interface mode of the ADC as
follows:
Chain mode is selected if SDI is low during the CNV rising edge. In this mode, SDI is used as a data
input to daisy-chain the conversion results of two or more ADCs onto a single SDO line. The digital
data level on SDI is output on SDO with a delay of 16 SCK cycles.
CS mode is selected if SDI is high during the CNV rising edge. In this mode, either SDI or CNV can
enable the serial output signals when low; if SDI or CNV is low when the conversion is complete,
the busy indicator feature is enabled.
Input/Output Interface Digital Power. Nominally at the same supply as the host interface (1.8 V, 2.5 V,
3 V, or 5 V).
Exposed Pad. For the 10-lead LFCSP only, connect the exposed pad to GND. This connection is not
required to meet the electrical performances.
AI = analog input, DI = digital input, DO = digital output, and P = power.

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL)
INL refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line
drawn from negative full scale through positive full scale. The
point used as negative full scale occurs ½ LSB before the first
code transition. Positive full scale is defined as a level 1½ LSB
beyond the last code transition. The deviation is measured from
the middle of each code to the true straight line (see Figure 21).
Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL)
In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. DNL is the
maximum deviation from this ideal value. It is often specified
in terms of resolution for which no missing codes are
guaranteed.
Offset Error
The first transition should occur at a level ½ LSB above analog
ground (38.1 µV for the 0 V to 5 V range). The offset error is
the deviation of the actual transition from that point.
Gain Error
The last transition (from 111 … 10 to 111 … 11) should
occur for an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the nominal full
scale (4.999886 V for the 0 V to 5 V range). The gain error is
the deviation of the actual level of the last transition from the
ideal level after the offset is adjusted out.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms
amplitude of the input signal and the peak spurious signal.
Effective Resolution
Effective resolution is calculated as
Effective Resolution = log2(2N/RMS Input Noise)
and is expressed in bits.
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 dB.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is the ratio of the rms value of the full scale to
the total rms noise measured with the inputs shorted together.
The value for dynamic range is expressed in dB. It is measured
with a signal at −60 dBFS to include all noise sources and DNL
artifacts.
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 dB.
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 dB.
Aperture Delay
Aperture delay is the measurement of the acquisition performance.
It is the time between the rising edge of the CNV input and
when the input signal is held for a conversion.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB is a measurement of the resolution with a sine wave
input. It is related to SINAD as follows:
ENOB = (SINADdB − 1.76)/6.02
and is expressed in bits.
Noise-Free Code Resolution
Noise-free code resolution is the number of bits beyond which
it is impossible to distinctly resolve individual codes. It is
calculated as
Transient Response
Transient response is the time required for the ADC to
accurately acquire its input after a full-scale step function is
applied.
Noise-Free Code Resolution = log2(2N/Peak-to-Peak Noise)
and is expressed in bits.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7983 is a fast, low power, single-supply, precise 16-bit
ADC that uses a successive approximation architecture.
The AD7983 is capable of converting 1,000,000 samples per
second (1 MSPS) and powers down between conversions.
When operating at 10 kSPS, for example, it consumes 70 µW
typically, making it ideal for battery-powered applications.
The AD7983 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold
and does not exhibit any pipeline delay or latency, making it
ideal for multiple multiplexed channel applications.
The AD7983 can be interfaced to any 1.8 V to 5 V digital logic
family. It is available in a 10-lead MSOP or a tiny 10-lead
LFCSP that allows space savings and flexible configurations.
It is pin-for-pin compatible with the 18-bit AD7982.
CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7983 is a successive approximation ADC based on a
charge redistribution DAC. Figure 20 shows the simplified
schematic of the ADC. The capacitive DAC consists of two
identical arrays of 16 binary weighted capacitors, which are
connected to the two comparator inputs.
During the acquisition phase, terminals of the array tied to the
input of the comparator are connected to GND via SW+ and
SW−. All independent switches are connected to the analog
inputs. Therefore, the capacitor arrays are used as sampling
capacitors and acquire the analog signal on the IN+ and IN−
inputs. When the acquisition phase is complete and the CNV
input goes high, a conversion phase is initiated. 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 GND 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 GND and REF, the
comparator input varies by binary weighted voltage steps
(VREF/2, VREF/4 … VREF/65,536). The control logic toggles these
switches, starting with the MSB, to bring the comparator back
into a balanced condition. After the completion of this process,
the part returns to the acquisition phase and the control logic
generates the ADC output code and a busy signal indicator.
Because the AD7983 has an on-board conversion clock, the
serial clock, SCK, is not required for the conversion process.

ANALOG INPUTS
DRIVER AMPLIFIER CHOICE
Figure 23 shows an equivalent circuit of the input structure of
the AD7983.
Although the AD7983 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier
needs to meet the following requirements:
The two diodes, D1 and D2, 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 these diodes to become forwardbiased and start conducting current. These diodes can handle a
forward-biased current of 130 mA maximum. For instance,
these conditions could eventually occur when the supplies of
the input buffer (U1) are different from VDD. In such a case
(for example, an input buffer with a short circuit), the current
limitation can be used to protect the part.
•
The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be
kept as low as possible to preserve the SNR and transition
noise performance of the AD7983. The noise coming from
the driver is filtered by the AD7983 analog input circuit’s
1-pole, low-pass filter made by RIN and CIN or by the external
filter, if one is used. Because the typical noise of the AD7983
is 39.7 µV rms, the SNR degradation due to the amplifier is

Figure 23. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit
The analog input structure allows the sampling of the true
differential signal between IN+ and IN−. By using these
differential inputs, signals common to both inputs are rejected.
During the acquisition phase, the impedance of the analog
inputs (IN+ and IN−) can be modeled as a parallel combination of
capacitor, CPIN, and the network formed by the series connection of
RIN and CIN. CPIN is primarily the pin capacitance. RIN is typically
400 Ω and is a lumped component made up of some serial
resistors and the on resistance of the switches. CIN is typically
30 pF and is mainly the ADC sampling capacitor. During the
conversion phase, where the switches are opened, the input
impedance is limited to CPIN. RIN and CIN make a 1-pole, low-pass
filter that reduces undesirable aliasing effects and limits the noise.
When the source impedance of the driving circuit is low, the
AD7983 can be driven directly. Large source impedances
significantly affect the ac performance, especially THD. The dc
performances are less sensitive to the input impedance. The
maximum source impedance depends on the amount of THD
that can be tolerated. The THD degrades as a function of the
source impedance and the maximum input frequency.

f–3dB is the input bandwidth in MHz of the AD7983

For ac applications, the driver should have a THD
performance commensurate with the AD7983.
•
For multichannel multiplexed applications, the driver
amplifier and the AD7983 analog input circuit must settle
for a full-scale step onto the capacitor array at a 16-bit level
(0.0015%, 15 ppm). In the data sheet of the amplifier, settling
at 0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. This could
differ significantly from the settling time at a 16-bit level
and should be verified prior to driver selection.
The Precision ADC Driver Tool can be used to model the
settling behavior and to estimate the ac performance of the
AD7983 with a selected driver and RC filter.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUT
POWER SUPPLY
The AD7983 voltage reference input, REF, has a dynamic input
impedance and should therefore be driven by a low impedance
source with efficient decoupling between the REF and GND
pins, as explained in the Layout section.
The AD7983 uses two power supply pins: a core supply (VDD)
and a digital input/output interface supply (VIO). VIO allows
direct interface with any logic between 1.8 V and 5.0 V. To
reduce the number of supplies needed, VIO and VDD can be
tied together. When VIO is greater than or equal to VDD, the
AD7983 is insensitive to power supply sequencing. In normal
operation, if the magnitude of VIO is less than the magnitude
of VDD, VIO must be applied before VDD. Additionally, it is
very insensitive to power supply variations over a wide frequency
range, as shown in Figure 24.
If desired, a reference-decoupling capacitor value as small as
2.2 µF can be used with a minimal impact on performance,
especially DNL.
Regardless, there is no need for an additional lower value ceramic
decoupling capacitor (for example, 100 nF) between the REF
and GND pins.

If an unbuffered reference voltage is used, the decoupling value
depends on the reference used. For instance, a 22 µF (X5R,
1206 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum
performance using a low temperature drift reference, such as
the ADR435, ADR445, LTC6655, or ADR4550.
PSRR (dB)
When REF is driven by a very low impedance source, for example,
a reference buffer using the AD8031, ADA4805-1, or
ADA4807-1, a ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for
optimum performance.

AD7983
DIGITAL INTERFACE
Though the AD7983 has a reduced number of pins, it offers
flexibility in its serial interface modes.
When in CS mode, the AD7983 is compatible with SPI, QSPI,
and digital hosts. This interface can use either a 3-wire or a 4-wire
interface. A 3-wire interface using the CNV, SCK, and SDO
signals minimizes wiring connections useful, for instance, in
isolated applications. A 4-wire interface using the SDI, CNV,
SCK, and SDO signals allows CNV, which initiates the
conversions, to be independent of the readback timing (SDI).
This is useful in low jitter sampling or simultaneous sampling
applications.
The AD7983, when in chain mode, provides a daisy-chain
feature using the SDI input for cascading multiple ADCs on a
single data line similar to a shift register.
The mode in which the part operates depends on the SDI level
when the CNV rising edge occurs. The CS mode is selected if
SDI is high, and the chain mode is selected if SDI is low. The
SDI hold time is such that when SDI and CNV are connected,
the chain mode is always selected.
In either mode, the AD7983 offers the flexibility to optionally
force a start bit in front of the data bits. This start bit can be
used as a busy signal indicator to interrupt the digital host and
trigger the data reading. Otherwise, without a busy indicator,
the user must time out the maximum conversion time prior to
readback.
The busy indicator feature is enabled
• In CS mode if CNV or SDI is low when the ADC conversion
ends (see Figure 28 and Figure 32).
• In chain mode if SCK is high during the CNV rising edge
(see Figure 36).
Rev. C | Page 17 of 25
AD7983
Data Sheet
When CNV goes low, the MSB is output onto SDO. The
remaining data bits are then clocked by subsequent SCK falling
edges. The data is valid on both SCK edges. Although the rising
edge can be used to capture the data, a digital host using the SCK
falling edge allows a faster reading rate provided that it has an
acceptable hold time. After the 16th SCK falling edge or when
CNV goes high, whichever is earlier, SDO returns to high
impedance.
CS MODE, 3-WIRE WITHOUT BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when a single AD7983 is connected
to an SPI-compatible digital host. The connection diagram is
shown in Figure 25, and the corresponding timing is given in
Figure 26.
With SDI tied to VIO, a rising edge on CNV initiates a
conversion, selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high
impedance. When a conversion is initiated, it continues until
completion irrespective of the state of CNV. This can be useful,
for example, to bring CNV low to select other SPI devices, such
as analog multiplexers; however, CNV must be returned high
before the minimum conversion time elapses and then held
high for the maximum conversion time to avoid the generation
of the busy signal indicator. When the conversion is complete, the
AD7983 enters the acquisition phase and goes into standby mode.

If multiple AD7983s are selected at the same time, the SDO
output pin handles this contention without damage or induced

With SDI tied to VIO, a rising edge on CNV initiates a
conversion, selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high
impedance. SDO is maintained in high impedance until the
completion of the conversion irrespective of the state of CNV.
Prior to the minimum conversion time, CNV can be used to
select other SPI devices, such as analog multiplexers, but CNV
must be returned low before the minimum conversion time
elapses and then held low for the maximum conversion time to
guarantee the generation of the busy signal indicator. When the
conversion is complete, SDO goes from high impedance to low.
With a pull-up on the SDO line, this transition can be used as an
interrupt signal to initiate the data read back controlled by the
digital host. The AD7983 then enters the acquisition phase and
goes into standby mode. The data bits are then clocked out,
MSB first, by subsequent SCK falling edges. The data is valid on

When the conversion is complete, the AD7983 enters the

result can be read by bringing its SDI input low, which
consequently outputs the MSB onto SDO. The remaining data
bits are then clocked by subsequent SCK falling edges. The data
is valid on both SCK edges. Although the rising edge can be used
to capture the data, a digital host using the SCK falling edge
allows a faster reading rate provided it has an acceptable hold

whichever is earlier, SDO returns to high impedance and
another AD7983 can be read.
CS MODE, 4-WIRE WITHOUT BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when multiple AD7983s are
connected to an SPI-compatible digital host.
A connection diagram example using two AD7983s is shown in
Figure 29, and the corresponding timing is given in Figure 30.
With SDI high, a rising edge on CNV initiates a conversion,
selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high impedance. In this
mode, CNV must be held high during the conversion phase
and the subsequent data readback (if SDI and CNV are low,
SDO is driven low). Prior to the minimum conversion time,
SDI can be used to select other SPI devices, such as analog

This mode is usually used when a single AD7983 is connected
to an SPI-compatible digital host that has an interrupt input,
and when it is desired to keep CNV, which is used to sample
the analog input, independent of the signal used to select the
data reading. This requirement is particularly important in
applications where low jitter on CNV is desired.
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 31, and the
corresponding timing is given in Figure 32.
With SDI high, a rising edge on CNV initiates a conversion,
selects the CS mode, and forces SDO to high impedance. In this
mode, CNV must be held high during the conversion phase
and the subsequent data readback (if SDI and CNV are low,
SDO is driven low). Prior to the minimum conversion time,
SDI can be used to select other SPI devices, such as analog
multiplexers, but SDI must be returned low before the
minimum conversion time elapses and then held low for the
maximum conversion time to guarantee the generation of the
busy signal indicator. When the conversion is complete, SDO
goes from high impedance to low.

Data Sheet
When SDI and CNV are low, SDO is driven low. With SCK
low, a rising edge on CNV initiates a conversion, selects the
chain mode, and disables the busy indicator. In this mode,
CNV is held high during the conversion phase and the
subsequent data readback. When the conversion is complete,
the MSB is output onto SDO and the AD7983 enters the
acquisition phase and goes into standby mode. The remaining
data bits stored in the internal shift register are clocked by
subsequent SCK falling edges. For each ADC, SDI feeds the
input of the internal shift register and is clocked by the SCK
falling edge. Each ADC in the chain outputs its data MSB first,
and 16 × N clocks are required to readback the N ADCs. The
data is valid on both SCK edges. Although the rising edge can
be used to capture the data, a digital host using the SCK falling
edge allows a faster reading rate and, consequently, more
AD7983s in the chain, provided the digital host has an
acceptable hold time. The maximum conversion rate can be
reduced due to the total readback time.
CHAIN MODE WITHOUT BUSY INDICATOR
This mode can be used to daisy-chain multiple AD7983s on a
3-wire serial interface. This feature is useful for reducing
component count and wiring connections, for example, in
isolated multiconverter applications or for systems with a
limited interfacing capacity. Data readback is analogous to
clocking a shift register.
A connection diagram example using two AD7983s is shown in
Figure 33, and the corresponding timing is given in Figure 34.

AD7983
When SDI and CNV are low, SDO is driven low. With SCK
high, a rising edge on CNV initiates a conversion, selects the
chain mode, and enables the busy indicator feature. In this
mode, CNV is held high during the conversion phase and the
subsequent data readback. When all ADCs in the chain have
completed their conversions, the SDO pin of the ADC closest
to the digital host (see the AD7983 ADC labeled C in Figure 35)
is driven high. This transition on SDO can be used as a busy
indicator to trigger the data readback controlled by the digital
host. The AD7983 then enters the acquisition phase and goes
into standby mode. The data bits stored in the internal shift
register are clocked out, MSB first, by subsequent SCK falling
edges. For each ADC, SDI feeds the input of the internal shift
register and is clocked by the SCK falling edge. Each ADC in the
chain outputs its data MSB first, and 16 × N + 1 clocks are required
to readback the N ADCs. Although the rising edge can be used to
capture the data, a digital host using the SCK falling edge allows
a faster reading rate and, consequently, more AD7983s in the
chain, provided the digital host has an acceptable hold time.
CHAIN MODE WITH BUSY INDICATOR
This mode can also be used to daisy-chain multiple AD7983s
on a 3-wire serial interface while providing a busy indicator.
This feature is useful for reducing component count and wiring
connections, for example, in isolated multiconverter applications
or for systems with a limited interfacing capacity. Data
readback is analogous to clocking a shift register.
A connection diagram example using three AD7983s is shown
in Figure 35, and the corresponding timing is given in Figure 36.

APPLICATION HINTS
LAYOUT
The printed circuit board (PCB) that houses the AD7983
should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are
separated and confined to certain areas of the board. The pinout of
the AD7983, with all its analog signals on the left side and all its
digital signals on the right side, eases this task.
AD7983
At least one ground plane should be used. The ground plane
can be common or split between the digital and analog section.
In the latter case, the planes should be joined underneath the
AD7983.
06974-024
Avoid running digital lines under the device because these couple
noise onto the die, unless a ground plane under the AD7983 is
used as a shield. Fast switching signals, such as CNV or clocks,
should never run near analog signal paths. Crossover of digital
and analog signals should be avoided.
Figure 37. Example Layout of the AD7983 (Top Layer)
The AD7983 voltage reference input REF has a dynamic input
impedance and should be decoupled with minimal parasitic
inductances. This is done by placing the reference decoupling
ceramic capacitor close to, ideally right up against, the REF and
GND pins and connecting them with wide, low impedance traces.
Finally, the AD7983 power supplies, VDD and VIO, should be
decoupled with ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF, placed
close to the AD7983 and connected using short and wide traces
to provide low impedance paths and to reduce the effect of
glitches on the power supply lines.
EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE AD7983
Other recommended layouts for the AD7983 are outlined
in the documentation of the evaluation board for the AD7983
(EVAL-AD7983SDZ). The evaluation board package includes
a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documentation,
and software for controlling the board from a PC via the
EVAL-SDP-CB1Z.
