FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LTC ® 1096/LTC1096L/LTC1098/LTC1098L are
micropower, 8-bit A/D converters that draw only 80μA of
supply current when converting. They automatically power
down to 1nA typical supply current whenever they are not
performing conversions. They are packaged in 8-pin SO
packages and have both 3V (L) and 5V versions. These
8-bit, switched-capacitor, successive approximation ADCs
include sample-and-hold. The LTC1096/LTC1096L have a
single differential analog input. The LTC1098/LTC1098L
offer a software selectable 2-channel MUX.

Isolated Data Acquisition
On-chip serial ports allow efficient data transfer to a wide
range of microprocessors and microcontrollers over three
wires. This, coupled with micropower consumption, makes
remote location possible and facilitates transmitting data
through isolation barriers.
These circuits can be used in ratiometric applications or
with an external reference. The high impedance analog
inputs and the ability to operate with reduced spans (below 1V full scale) allow direct connection to sensors and
transducers in many applications, eliminating the need
for gain stages.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND.
Note 3: For the 8-lead PDIP, consult the factory.
Note 4: Linearity error is specified between the actual and points of the
A/D transfer curve.
Note 5: Total unadjusted error includes offset, full scale, linearity,
multiplexer and hold step errors.
Note 6: Two on-chip diodes are tied to each reference and analog input
which will conduct for reference or analog input voltages one diode
drop below GND or one diode drop above VCC. This spec allows 50mV
forward bias of either diode. This means that as long as the reference or
70

ns

ns
analog input does not exceed the supply voltage by more than 50mV, the
output code will be correct. To achieve an absolute 0V to 5V input voltage
range will therefore require a minimum supply voltage of 4.950V over
initial tolerance, temperature variations and loading. For 5.5V < VCC ≤ 9V,
reference and analog input range cannot exceed 5.55V. If reference and
analog input range are greater than 5.55V, the output code will not be
guaranteed to be correct.
Note 7: The supply voltage range for the LTC1096L/LTC1098L is from
2.65V to 4V. The supply voltage range for the LTC1096 is from 3V to 9V,
but the supply voltage range for the LTC1098 is only from 3V to 6V.
Note 8: Channel leakage current is measured after the channel selection.
Note 9: These specifications are either correlated from 5V specifications or
guaranteed by design.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
The LTC1096/LTC1096L/LTC1098/LTC1098L are 8-bit
micropower, switched-capacitor A/D converters. These
sampling ADCs typically draw 120μA of supply current
when sampling up to 33kHz. Supply current drops linearly
as the sample rate is reduced (see Supply Current vs
Sample Rate on the first page of this data sheet). The ADCs
automatically power down when not performing conversion, drawing only leakage current. They are packaged in
8-pin SO packages. The LTC1096L/LTC1098L operate on
a single supply ranging from 2.65V to 4V. The LTC1096
operates on a single supply ranging from 3V to 9V while
the LTC1098 operates from 3V to 6V supplies.
The LTC1096/LTC1096L/LTC1098/LTC1098L comprise an
8-bit, switched-capacitor ADC, a sample-and-hold and a
serial port (see Block Diagram). Although they share the
same basic design, the LTC1096(L) and LTC1098(L) differ
in some respects. The LTC1096(L) has a differential input
and has an external reference input pin. It can measure
signals floating on a DC common mode voltage and can
operate with reduced spans down to 250mV. Reducing the
span allows it to achieve 1mV resolution. The LTC1098(L)
has a 2-channel input multiplexer and can convert either
channel with respect to ground or the difference between
the two.
wake-up time must be provided from CS falling to the
first falling clock (CLK) after the first rising CLK for the
LTC1096(L) and from CS falling to the MSBF bit CLK falling for the LTC1098(L) (see Operating Sequence). If the
LTC1096(L)/LTC1098(L) are running with clock frequency
less than or equal to 100kHz, the wake-up time is inherently provided.
Example
Two cases are shown at right to illustrate the relationship
among wake-up time, setup time and CLK frequency for
the LT1096(L).
In Case 1 the clock frequency is 100kHz. One clock cycle
is 10μs which can be the wake-up time, while half of that
can be the setup time. In Case 2 the clock frequency is
50kHz, half of the clock cycle plus the setup time (=1μs)
can be the wake-up time. If the CLK frequency is higher
than 100kHz, Figure 1 shows the relationship between the
wake-up time and setup time.

SERIAL INTERFACE
The LTC1098(L) communicates with microprocessors and
other external circuitry via a synchronous, half duplex,

interface (see Operating Sequence in Figures 1 and 2).
Power Down and Wake-Up Time
The LTC1096(L)/LTC1098(L) draw power when the CS
pin is low and shut themselves down when that pin is
high. In order to have a correct conversion result, a 10μs

The wake-up time is inherently provided for the LTC1098(L)
with setup time = 1μs (see Figure 2).
CS

DOUT 1
Data Transfer
The CLK synchronizes the data transfer with each bit being
transmitted on the falling CLK edge and captured on the
rising CLK edge in both transmitting and receiving systems. The LTC1098(L) first receives input data and then
transmits back the A/D conversion result (half duplex).
Because of the half duplex operation, DIN and DOUT may
be tied together allowing transmission over just three
wires: CS, CLK and DATA (DIN/DOUT).
Data transfer is initiated by a falling chip select (CS) signal.
After CS falls the LTC1098(L) looks for a start bit. After the
start bit is received, the 3-bit input word is shifted into the
DIN input which configures the LTC1098(L) and starts the
conversion. After one null bit, the result of the conversion

is output on the DOUT line. At the end of the data exchange
CS should be brought high. This resets the LTC1098(L) in
preparation for the next data exchange.
The LTC1096(L) does not require a configuration input
word and has no DIN pin. A falling CS initiates data transferas shown in the LTC1096(L) operating sequence. After
CS falls, the first CLK pulse enables DOUT. After one null
bit, the A/D conversion result is output on the DOUT line.
Bringing CS high resets the LTC1096(L) for the next data
exchange.

The LTC1096(L) requires no DIN word. It is permanently
configured to have a single differential input. The conversion result, in which output on the DOUT line is MSB-first
sequence, followed by LSB sequence providing easy
interface to MSB- or LSB-first serial ports.
The first “logical one” clocked into the DIN input after CS
goes low is the start bit. The start bit initiates the data
transfer. The LTC1098(L) will ignore all leading zeros which
precede this logical one. After the start bit is received,
the remaining bits of the input word will be clocked in.
Further inputs on the DIN pin are then ignored until the
next CS cycle.

ACHIEVING MICROPOWER PERFORMANCE
With typical operating currents of 40μA and automatic
shutdown between conversions, the LTC1096/LTC1098
achieves extremely low power consumption over a wide
range of sample rates (see Figure 4). In systems that
convert continuously, the LTC1096/LTC1098 will draw
its normal operating power continuously. Figure 5 shows
that the typical current varies from 40μA at clock rates
below 50kHz to 100μA at 500kHz. Several things must
be taken into account to achieve such a low power
consumption.

Figures 1 and 2 show the operating sequence of the
LTC1096/LTC1098. The converter draws power when the
CS pin is low and powers itself down when that pin is high.
If the CS pin is not taken to ground when it is low and not
taken to supply voltage when it is high, the input buffers

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
of the converter will draw current. This current may be
larger than the typical supply current. It is worthwhile to
bring the CS pin all the way to ground when it is low and
all the way to supply voltage when it is high to obtain the
lowest supply current.
When the CS pin is high (= supply voltage), the converter
is in shutdown mode and draws only leakage current. The
status of the DIN and CLK input have no effect on supply
current during this time. There is no need to stop DIN and
CLK with CS = high, except the MPU may benefit.
Minimize CS Low Time
In systems that have significant time between conversions,
lowest power drain will occur with the minimum CS low
time. Bringing CS low, waiting 10μs for the wake-up time,
transferring data as quickly as possible, and then bringing
it back high will result in the lowest current drain. This
minimizes the amount of time the device draws power.
Even though the device draws more power at high clock
rates, the net power is less because the device is on for
a shorter time.
Wake-Up Time
A 10μs wake-up time must be provided for the ADCs
to convert correctly on a 5V supply. The wake-up time
is typically less than 3μs over the supply voltage range
(see typical curve of Wake-Up Time vs Supply Voltage).
With 10μs wake-up time provided over the supply range,
the ADCs will have adequate time to wake up and acquire
input signals.
Input Logic Levels
The input logic levels of CS, CLK and DIN are made to meet
TTL on 5V supply. When the supply voltage varies, the
input logic levels also change. For the LTC1096/LTC1098
to sample and convert correctly, the digital inputs have
to meet logic low and high levels relative to the operating
supply voltage (see typical curve of Digital Input Logic
Threshold vs Supply Voltage). If achieving micropower
consumption is desirable, the digital inputs must go railto-rail between supply voltage and ground (see ACHIEVING
MICROPOWER PERFORMANCE section).
Clock Frequency
DOUT Loading
Capacitive loading on the digital output can increase
power consumption. A 100pF capacitor on the DOUT pin
can more than double the 100μA supply current drain at a
500kHz clock frequency. An extra 100μA or so of current
goes into charging and discharging the load capacitor. The
same goes for digital lines driven at a high frequency by
any logic. The CxVxf currents must be evaluated and the
troublesome ones minimized.
Lower Supply Voltage
For lower supply voltages, LTC offers the LTC1096L/
LTC1098L. These pin compatible devices offer specified
performance to 2.65VMIN supply.
OPERATING ON OTHER THAN 5V SUPPLIES
The LTC1096 operates from 3V to 9V supplies and the
LTC1098 operates from 3V to 6V supplies. To operate the
LTC1096/LTC1098 on other than 5V supplies, a few things
must be kept in mind.
The maximum recommended clock frequency is 500kHz
for the LTC1096/LTC1098 running off a 5V supply. With the
supply voltage changing, the maximum clock frequency
for the devices also changes (see the typical curve of
Maximum Clock Rate vs Supply Voltage). If the maximum
clock frequency is used, care must be taken to ensure that
the device converts correctly.
Mixed Supplies
It is possible to have a microprocessor running off a 5V
supply and communicate with the LTC1096/LTC1098 operating on 3V or 9V supplies. The requirement to achieve
this is that the outputs of CS, CLK and DIN from the MPU
have to be able to trip the equivalent inputs of the ADCs
and the output of DOUT from the ADCs must be able to
toggle the equivalent input of the MPU (see typical curve
of Digital Input Logic Threshold vs Supply Voltage). With
the LTC1096 operating on a 9V supply, the output of DOUT
may go between 0V and 9V. The 9V output may damage
the MPU running off a 5V supply. The way to get around
this possibility is to have a resistor divider on DOUT

It should be noted that to get full shutdown, the CS input

capacitors. All analog inputs should be referenced directly

Both the LTC1096(L) and the LTC1098(L) provide a built-in

S&H of the LTC1096(L) acquires input signals from “+”
input relative to “–” input during the tWAKEUP time (see
Figure 1). However, the S&H of the LTC1098(L) can sample

inputs during the tSMPL time (see Figure 7).

in and continues until the falling CLK edge after the MSBF
bit is received. On this falling edge, the S&H goes into hold
mode and the conversion begins.
Differential Inputs
With differential inputs, the ADC no longer converts just a
single voltage but rather the difference between two voltages. In this case, the voltage on the selected “+” input
is still sampled and held and therefore may be rapidly
time varying just as in single-ended mode. However, the
voltage on the selected “–” input must remain constant
and be free of noise and ripple throughout the conversion time. Otherwise, the differencing operation may not
be performed accurately. The conversion time is 8 CLK
cycles. Therefore, a change in the “–” input voltage during
this interval can cause conversion errors. For a sinusoidal
voltage on the “–” input this error would be:
VERROR (MAX) = VPEAK • 2 • π • f(“–”) • 8/fCLK
Where f(“–”) is the frequency of the “–” input voltage,
VPEAK is its peak amplitude and fCLK is the frequency of
the CLK. In most cases VERROR will not be significant. For
a 60Hz signal on the “–” input to generate a 1/4LSB error
(5mV) with the converter running at CLK = 500kHz, its
peak value would have to be 750mV.
ANALOG INPUTS
Because of the capacitive redistribution A/D conversion
techniques used, the analog inputs of the LTC1096(L)/
LTC1098(L )have capacitive switching input current spikes.
These current spikes settle quickly and do not cause a
problem. However, if large source resistances are used
or if slow settling op amps drive the inputs, care must be
taken to ensure that the transients caused by the current
spikes settle completely before the conversion begins.
“+” Input Settling
The input capacitor of the LTC1096(L) is switched onto
“+” input during the wake-up time (see Figure 1) and
samples the input signal within that time. However, the
input capacitor of the LTC1098(L) is switched onto “+”
input during the sample phase (tSMPL, see Figure 7). The
sample phase is 1.5 CLK cycles before conversion starts.
The voltage on the “+” input must settle completely within
t WAKEUP or tSMPL for the LTC1096(L) or the LTC1098(L)
respectively. Minimizing RSOURCE+ and C1 will improve the
input settling time. If a large “+” input source resistance
must be used, the sample time can be increased by using
a slower CLK frequency.
“–” Input Settling
At the end of the tWAKEUP or tSMPL, the input capacitor
switches to the “–” input and conversion starts (see
Figures 1 and 7). During the conversion the “+” input
voltage is effectively “held” by the sample-and-hold and
will not affect the conversion result. However, it is critical that the “–” input voltage settles completely during
the first CLK cycle of the conversion time and be free of
noise. Minimizing RSOURCE– and C2 will improve settling
time. If a large “–” input source resistance must be used,
the time allowed for settling can be extended by using a
slower CLK frequency.
Input Op Amps
When driving the analog inputs with an op amp it is important that the op amp settle within the allowed time (see
Figure 7). Again, the “+” and “–” input sampling times can
be extended as described above to accommodate slower
op amps. Most op amps, including the LT1006 and LT1413
single supply op amps, can be made to settle well even
with the minimum settling windows of 3μs (“+” input)
which occur at the maximum clock rate of 500kHz.
Source Resistance
The analog inputs of the LTC1096/LTC1098 look like a 25pF
capacitor (CIN) in series with a 500Ω resistor (RON) as
shown in Figure 8. CIN gets switched between the selected
“+” and “–” inputs once during each conversion cycle.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Large external source resistors and capacitances will slow
the settling of the inputs. It is important that the overall
RC time constants be short enough to allow the analog
inputs to completely settle within the allowed time.
RC Input Filtering
It is possible to filter the inputs with an RC network as
shown in Figure 9. For large values of CF (e.g., 1μF), the
capacitive input switching currents are averaged into a
net DC current. Therefore, a filter should be chosen with
a small resistor and large capacitor to prevent DC drops
across the resistor. The magnitude of the DC current is
approximately IDC = 25pF(VIN /tCYC) and is roughly proportional to VIN. When running at the minimum cycle time
of 29μs, the input current equals 4.3μA at VIN = 5V. In this
case, a filter resistor of 390Ω will cause 0.1LSB of fullscale error. If a larger filter resistor must be used, errors
can be eliminated by increasing the cycle time.

10968 F09
Figure 9. RC Input Filtering
Input Leakage Current
The effective resolution of the LTC1096 can be increased
by reducing the input span of the converter. The LTC1096
exhibits good linearity and gain over a wide range of reference voltages (see typical curves of Linearity and Full
Scale Error vs Reference Voltage). However, care must be
taken when operating at low values of VREF because of the
reduced LSB step size and the resulting higher accuracy
requirement placed on the converter. The following factors
must be considered when operating at low VREF values.
Input leakage currents can also create errors if the source
resistance gets too large. For instance, the maximum input
leakage specification of 1μA (at 125°C) flowing through a
source resistance of 3.9k will cause a voltage drop of 3.9mV
or 0.2LSB. This error will be much reduced at lower temperatures because leakage drops rapidly (see typical curve
of Input Channel Leakage Current vs Temperature).

The offset of the LTC1096 has a larger effect on the output
code when the ADC is operated with reduced reference

becomes a larger fraction of an LSB as the size of the
LSB is reduced. The typical curve of Unadjusted Offset
Error vs Reference Voltage shows how offset in LSBs is
10968fc
23
LTC1096/LTC1096L
LTC1098/LTC1098L
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Noise with Reduced VREF
The total input referred noise of the LTC1096 can be reduced
to approximately 1mV peak-to-peak using a ground plane,
good bypassing, good layout techniques and minimizing
noise on the reference inputs. This noise is insignificant
with a 5V reference but will become a larger fraction of
an LSB as the size of the LSB is reduced.
For operation with a 5V reference, the 1mV noise is only
0.05LSB peak-to-peak. In this case, the LTC1096 noise
will contribute virtually no uncertainty to the output code.
However, for reduced references, the noise may become
a significant fraction of an LSB and cause undesirable jitter in the output code. For example, with a 1V reference,
this same 1mV noise is 0.25LSB peak-to-peak. This will
reduce the range of input voltages over which a stable
output code can be achieved by 1LSB. If the reference is
further reduced to 200mV, the 1mV noise becomes equal
to 1.25LSBs and a stable code may be difficult to achieve.
In this case averaging readings may be necessary.
This noise data was taken in a very clean setup. Any setupinduced noise (noise or ripple on VCC, VREF or VIN) will
add to the internal noise. The lower the reference voltage
to be used, the more critical it becomes to have a clean,
noise free setup.
Conversion Speed with Reduced VREF
With reduced reference voltages the LSB step size is
reduced and the LTC1096 internal comparator overdrive
is reduced. Therefore, it may be necessary to reduce
the maximum CLK frequency when low values of VREF
are used.
Input Divider
It is OK to use an input divider on the reference input of
the LTC1096 as long as the reference input can be made
to settle within the bit time at which the clock is running.
When using a larger value resistor divider on the reference
input the “–” input should be matched with an equivalent
resistance.
Bypassing Reference Input with Divider
Bypassing the reference input with a divider is also possible. However, care must be taken to make sure that the
DC voltage on the reference input will not drop too much
below the intended reference voltage.
AC PERFORMANCE
Two commonly used figures of merit for specifying the
dynamic performance of the ADCs in digital signal processing applications are the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
and the effective number of bits (ENOBs).
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio between the
RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency to
the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components at
the A/D output. This includes distortion as well as noise
products and for this reason it is sometimes referred to as
signal-to-noise + distortion [S/(N + D)]. The output is band
limited to frequencies from DC to one half the sampling
frequency. Figure 11 shows spectral content from DC to
15.625kHz which is 1/2 the 31.25kHz sampling rate.

corrected digitally by the receiving system or by offsetting

data MSB-first and in 8-bit increments. With two 8-bit
transfers, the A/D result is read into the MPU. The first
8-bit transfer sends the DIN word to the LTC1098(L) and
clocks into the processor. The second 8-bit transfer clocks
the A/D conversion result, B7 through B0, into the MPU.
ANDing the first MUP received byte with 00Hex clears the
first byte. Notice how the position of the start bit in the
first MPU transmit word is used to position the A/D result
right-justified in two memory locations.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Interfacing to the Parallel Port of the
Intel 8051 Family
LABEL
The Intel 8051 has been chosen to demonstrate the
interface between the LTC1098(L) and parallel port microprocessors. Normally the CS, CLK and DIN signals
would be generated on three port lines and the DOUT signal
read on a fourth port line. This works very well. However,
we will demonstrate here an interface with the DIN and
DOUT of the LTC1098(L) tied together as described in the
SERIAL INTERFACE section. This saves one wire.
LOOP 1
LOOP
The 8051 first sends the start bit and MUX address to the
LTC1098(L) over the data line connected to P1.2. Then
P1.2 is reconfigured as an input (by writing to it a one) and
the 8051 reads back the 8-bit A/D result over the same
data line.

A “Quick Look” Circuit for the LTC1096
Users can get a quick look at the function and timing of
the LT1096 by using the following simple circuit (Figure
13). VREF is tied to VCC. VIN is applied to the +IN input and
the – IN input is tied to the ground. CS is driven at 1/16
the clock rate by the 74C161 and DOUT outputs the data.
The output data from the DOUT pin can be viewed on an
oscilloscope that is set up to trigger on the falling edge
of CS (Figure 14). Note the LSB data is partially clocked
out before CS goes high.

Figure 15 shows a temperature measurement system.
The LTC1096 is connected directly to the low cost silicon
temperature sensor. The voltage applied to the VREF pin
adjusts the full scale of the A/D to the output range of the
sensor. The zero point of the converter is matched to the
zero output voltage of the sensor by the voltage on the
LTC1096’s negative input.

Remote or Isolated Systems
Figure 16 shows a floating system that sends data to a
grounded host system. The floating circuitry is isolated by
two optoisolators and powered by a simple capacitor diode
charge pump. The system has very low power requirements
because the LTC1096 shuts down between conversions
and the optoisolators draw power only when data is being
transferred. The system consumes only 50μA at a sample
rate of 10Hz (1ms on-time and 99ms off-time). This is
easily within the current supplied by the charge pump
running at 5MHz. If a truly isolated system is required,
the system’s low power simplifies generating an isolated
supply or powering the system from a battery.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
A/D Conversion for 3V Systems
The LTC1096/LTC1098 are ideal for 3V systems. Figure
17 shows a 3V to 6V battery current monitor that draws
only 70μA from the battery it monitors. The battery current is sensed with the 0.02Ω resistor and amplified by
the LT1178. The LTC1096 digitizes the amplifier output
and sends it to the microprocessor in serial format. The
LT1004 provides the full-scale reference for the ADC. The
other half of the LTC1178 is used to provide low battery
detection. The circuit’s 70μA supply current is dominated
by the op amps and the reference. The circuit can be
located near the battery and data transmitted serially to
the microprocessor.
