n
n
The LTC®1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 are 8-channel, low
power, 12-/14-/16-bit, 100ksps, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). These SoftSpan™ ADCs can be softwareprogrammed for 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V, ±5V or ±10V input
spans and operate from a single 5V supply. The 8‑channel
multiplexer can be programmed for single-ended inputs
or pairs of differential inputs or combinations of both. In
addition, all channels are fault protected to ±25V. A fault
condition on any channel will not affect the conversion
result of the selected channel.

APPLICATIONS
n
n
n
n
An onboard high performance sample-and-hold and precision reference minimize external components. The low
40mW power dissipation is made even more attractive with
two user selectable power shutdown modes. DC specifications include ±3LSB INL for the LTC1859, ±1.5LSB INL
for the LTC1858 and ±1LSB for the LTC1857.
The internal clock is trimmed for 5µs maximum conversion
time and the sampling rate is guaranteed at 100ksps. A
separate convert start input and data ready signal (BUSY)
ease connections to FIFOs, DSPs and microprocessors.

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 ground with DGND, AGND1,
AGND2 and AGND3 wired together unless otherwise noted.
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below ground or above AVDD =
DVDD = OVDD = VDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product
can handle currents of greater than 100mA below ground or above VDD
without latchup.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below ground they will be
clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle currents of greater
than 100mA below ground without latchup. These pins are not clamped
to VDD.
Note 5: VDD = 5V, fSAMPLE = 100kHz, tr = tf = 5ns unless otherwise
specified.
Note 6: Linearity, offset and full-scale specifications apply for a singleended analog MUX input with respect to ground or ADC+ with respect to
ADC– tied to ground.
Note 7: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual end points of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.

Note 8: Bipolar zero error is the offset voltage measured from – 0.5LSB
when the output code flickers between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 1111
1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1859, between 00 0000 0000 0000 and 11
1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1858 and between 0000 0000 0000 and
1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1857. Unipolar zero error is the offset voltage
measured from 0.5LSB when the output codes flicker between 0000 0000
0000 0000 and 0000 0000 0000 0001 for the LTC1859, between 00 0000
0000 0000 and 00 0000 0000 0001 for the LTC1858 and between 0000
0000 0000 and 0000 0000 0001 for the LTC1857.
Note 9: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 10: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 11: Full-scale bipolar error is the worst case of –FS or +FS
untrimmed deviation from ideal first and last code transitions, divided by
the full-scale range, and includes the effect of offset error. For unipolar
full-scale error, the deviation of the last code transition from ideal, divided
by the full-scale range, and includes the effect of offset error.
Note 12: All Specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale ±10V input.
Note 13: Recovers to specified performance after (2 • FS) input
overvoltage.
Note 14: t6 of 45ns maximum allows fSCK up to 10MHz for rising capture
with 50% duty cycle and fSCK up to 20MHz for falling capture (with 5ns
setup time for the receiving logic).
Note 15: The specification is referred to the ±10V input range.

LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859
OPERATION
OVERVIEW
The LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 are innovative, multichannel ADCs that provide software-selectable input ranges for
each of their eight input channels. Using on-chip resistors
and switches, it provides an attenuation and offset that can
be programmed for each channel on the fly. The precisely
trimmed attenuators ensure accurate input ranges. Because
they precede the multiplexer, errors due to multiplexer
on-resistance are eliminated.
The input word that selects the input channel also selects the
desired input range for that channel. The available ranges
are 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V (unipolar), ±5V and ±10V (bipolar).
They are achieved with the ADC running on a single 5V
supply. In addition to the range selection, single-ended
or differential inputs may be selected for each channel or
pair of channels. Finally, overrange protection is provided
for unselected channels. An overrange condition on an
unused channel will not affect the conversion result on
the selected channel.
CONVERSION DETAILS
The LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 use a successive approximation algorithm and an internal sample-and-hold
circuit to convert an analog signal to a 12-/14-/16-bit serial
output respectively. The ADCs are complete with a precision
reference and an internal clock. The control logic provides
easy interface to microprocessors and DSPs. (Please refer
to the Digital Interface section for the data format.)
The analog signals applied at the MUX input channels are
rescaled by the resistor divider network formed by R1, R2
and R3 as shown below. The rescaled signals appear on
the MUXOUT (Pins 10, 11) which are also connected to
the ADC inputs (Pins 12, 13) under normal operation.

Before starting a conversion, an 8-bit data word is clocked
into the SDI input on the first eight rising SCK edges to
select the MUX address, input range and power down
mode. The ADC enters acquisition mode on the falling
edge of the sixth clock in the 8-bit data word and ends
on the rising edge of the CONVST signal which also starts
a conversion (see Figure 7). A minimum time of 4µs will
provide enough time for the sample-and-hold capacitors
to acquire the analog signal. Once a conversion cycle has
begun, it cannot be restarted.
During the conversion, the internal differential 12-/14/16‑bit capacitive DAC output is sequenced by the SAR from
the most significant bit (MSB) to the least significant bit
(LSB). The input is successively compared with the binary
weighted charges supplied by the differential capacitive
DAC. Bit decisions are made by a high speed comparator.
At the end of a conversion, the DAC output balances the
analog input (ADC + – ADC–). The SAR contents (a 16-bit
data word) which represents the difference of ADC+ and
ADC– are loaded into the 12-/14-/16-bit shift register.
DRIVING THE ANALOG INPUTS
The nominal input ranges for the LTC1857/LTC1858/
LTC1859 are 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V, ±5V and ±10V and the
MUX inputs are overvoltage protected to ± 25V. The input
impedance is typically 42kΩ in unipolar mode and 31kΩ
in bipolar mode, therefore, it should be driven with a low
impedance source. Wideband noise coupling into the input
can be minimized by placing a 3000pF capacitor at the input
as shown in Figure 2. An NPO-type capacitor gives the
lowest distortion. Place the capacitor as close to the device
input pin as possible. If an amplifier is to be used to drive
the input, care should be taken to select an amplifier with
adequate accuracy, linearity and noise for the application.
The following list is a summary of the op amps that are
suitable for driving the LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859. More
detailed information is available in the Linear Technology
data books and online at www.linear.com.

INTERNAL VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 have an on-chip, temperature compensated, curvature corrected, bandgap
reference, which is factory trimmed to 2.50V. The full-scale
range of the LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 is equal to ±5V,
0V to 5V, ±10V or 0V to 10V. The output of the reference is
connected to the input of a gain of 1.6384x buffer through
an 8k resistor (see Figure 3). The input to the buffer or

the output of the reference is available at VREF (Pin 15).
The internal reference can be overdriven with an external
reference if more accuracy is needed. The buffer output
drives the internal DAC and is available at REFCOMP (Pin
16). The REFCOMP pin can be used to drive a steady DC
load of less than 2mA. Driving an AC load is not recommended because it can cause the performance of the
converter to degrade.

UNIPOLAR / BIPOLAR OPERATION
Figure 4a shows the ideal input/output characteristics
for the LTC1859. The code transitions occur midway
1LSB =
111...111
111...110
between successive integer LSB values (i.e., 0.5LSB,
1.5LSB, 2.5LSB, … FS – 1.5LSB). The output code is
natural binary with 1LSB = FS/65536. Figure 4b shows
the input/output transfer characteristics for the bipolar
mode in two’s complement format.
FULL SCALE AND OFFSET
In applications where absolute accuracy is important,
offset and full-scale errors can be adjusted to zero during a
calibration sequence. Offset error must be adjusted before
full-scale error. Zero offset is achieved by adjusting the
offset applied to the “–” input. For single-ended inputs, this
offset should be applied to the COM pin. For differential
inputs, the “–” input is dictated by the MUX address. For
unipolar zero offset error, apply 0.5LSB (actual voltage will
vary with input span selected) to the “+” input and adjust
the offset at the “–” input until the output code flickers
between 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 0000 0000 0000 0001
for the LTC1859, between 00 0000 0000 0000 and 00 0000
0000 0001 for the LTC1858 and between 0000 0000 0000
and 0000 0000 0001 for the LTC1857.
For bipolar zero error, apply – 0.5LSB (actual voltage will
vary with input span selected) to the “+” input and adjust
the offset at the “–” input until the output code flickers

As mentioned earlier, the internal reference is factory
trimmed to 2.50V. To make sure that the reference buffer
gain is not compensating for trim errors in the reference,
REFCOMP is trimmed with an accurate external 2.5V reference applied to VREF. For unipolar inputs, an input voltage
of FS – 1.5LSBs should be applied to the “+” input and the
appropriate reference adjusted until the output code flickers between 1111 1111 1111 1110 and 1111 1111 1111

For bipolar inputs, an input voltage of FS – 1.5LSBs should
be applied to the “+” input and the appropriate reference
adjusted until the output code flickers between 0111 1111
1111 1110 and 0111 1111 1111 1111 for the LTC1859,
between 01 1111 1111 1110 and 01 1111 1111 1111 for
the LTC1858 and between 0111 1111 1110 and 0111 1111
1111 for the LTC1857.
These adjustments as well as the factory trims affect all
channels. The channel-to-channel offset and gain error
matching are guaranteed by design to meet the specifications in the Converter Characteristics table.
DC PERFORMANCE
One way of measuring the transition noise associated
with a high resolution ADC is to use a technique where
a DC signal is applied to the input of the MUX and the
resulting output codes are collected over a large number
of conversions. For example in Figure 5 the distribution
of output code is shown for a DC input that has been
digitized 4096 times. The distribution is Gaussian and the
RMS code transition is about 1LSB for the LTC1859.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
Internal Clock
The ADC has an internal clock that is trimmed to achieve
a typical conversion time of 4µs. No external adjustments
are required and, with the maximum acquisition time of
4µs, throughput performance of 100ksps is assured.

3V Input/Output Compatible
The LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 operate on a 5V supply,
which makes the devices easy to interface to 5V digital
systems. These devices can also interface to 3V digital
systems: the digital input pins (SCK, SDI, CONVST and
RD) of the LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 recognize 3V or 5V
inputs. The LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859 have a dedicated
output supply pin (OVP) that controls the output swings
of the digital output pins (SDO, BUSY) and allows the part
to interface to either 3V or 5V digital systems. The output
is two’s complement binary for bipolar mode and offset
binary for unipolar mode.
Timing and Control
Conversion start and data read are controlled by two digital
inputs: CONVST and RD. To start a conversion and put
the sample-and-hold into the hold mode bring CONVST
high for no less than 40ns. Once initiated it cannot be restarted until the conversion is complete. Converter status
is indicated by the BUSY output and this is low while the
conversion is in progress.
Figures 6a and 6b show two different modes of operation for the LTC1859. For the 12-bit LTC1857 and 14-bit
LTC1858, the last four and two bits of the SDO will output
zeros respectively. In mode 1 (Figure 6a), RD is tied low.
The rising edge of CONVST starts the conversion. The data
outputs are always enabled. The MSB of the data output
is available after the conversion. In mode 2 (Figure 6b),
CONVST and RD are tied together. The rising edge of the
CONVST signal starts the conversion. Data outputs are in

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
MUX ADDRESS
The first four bits of the input word assign the MUX
configuration for the requested conversion. For a given
channel selection, the converter will measure the voltage
between the two channels indicated by the + and – signs in
the selected row of Table 1. Note that in differential mode
(SGL/DIFF = 0) measurements are limited to four adjacent
input pairs with either polarity. In single-ended mode, all
input channels are measured with respect to COM. Both
the “+” and “–” inputs are sampled simultaneously so
common mode noise is rejected.
INPUT RANGE (UNI, GAIN)
The fifth and sixth input bits (UNI, GAIN) determine the
input range for the conversion. When UNI is a logical one,
a unipolar conversion will be performed. When UNI is a
logical zero, a bipolar conversion will result. The GAIN
input bit determines the input span for the conversion.
When GAIN is a logical one, either 0V to 10V or ±10V input
spans will be selected depending on UNI. When GAIN is
a logical zero, either 0V to 5V or ±5V input spans will be
chosen. The input ranges for different UNI and GAIN inputs
are shown in Table 2.

POWER DOWN SELECTION (NAP, SLEEP)
The last two bits of the input word (Nap and Sleep) determine the power shutdown mode of the LTC1857/LTC1858/
LTC1859. See Table 3. Nap mode is selected when Nap =
1 and Sleep = 0. The previous conversion result will be
clocked out and a conversion will occur before entering
the Nap mode. The Nap mode starts at the end of the
conversion which is indicated by the rising edge of the
BUSY signal. Nap mode lasts until the falling edge of the
2nd SCK (see Figure 9). Automatic nap will be achieved
if Nap = 1 is selected each time an input word is written
to the ADC.

Nap

Sleep
Sleep mode will occur when Sleep = 1 is selected,
regardless of the selection of the Nap input. The previous conversion result can be clocked out and the Sleep
mode will start on the falling edge of the last (16th) SCK.
Notice that the CONVST should stay either high or low in
sleep mode (see Figure 10). To wake up from the sleep
mode, apply a rising edge on the CONVST signal and
then apply Sleep = 0 on the next SDI word and the part
will wake up on the falling edge of the last (16th) SCK
(see Figure 11).
In Sleep mode, all bias currents are shut down and only the
power on reset circuit and leakage currents (about 10µA)
remain. Sleep mode wake-up time is dependent on the value
of the capacitor connected to the REFCOMP (Pin 16). The
wake-up time is typically 40ms with the recommended
10µF capacitor connected on the REFCOMP pin.
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) test techniques are used to
test the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise
at the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion
sine wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT
algorithm, the ADC’s spectral content can be examined
for frequencies outside the fundamental. Figure 12 shows
a typical LTC1859 FFT plot which yields a SINAD of 87dB
and THD of – 101dB.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO
The Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD) 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. The output is band limited
to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling
frequency. Figure 12 shows a typical SINAD of 87dB with
a 100kHz sampling rate and a 1kHz input.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental
itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency
band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD
is expressed as:
THD = 20log
V22 + V32 + V42 ... + VN2
V1
MAGNITUDE (dB)
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the second
through Nth harmonics.

BOARD LAYOUT, POWER SUPPLIES
AND DECOUPLING
Wire wrap boards are not recommended for high resolution or high speed A/D converters. To obtain the best
performance from the LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859, a
printed circuit board is required. Layout for the printed
circuit board should ensure the digital and analog signal
lines are separated as much as possible. In particular, care
should be taken not to run any digital track alongside an
analog signal track or underneath the ADC. The analog
input should be screened by AGND.
In applications where the MUX is connected to the ADC, it is
possible to get noise coupling into the ADC from the trace
connecting the MUXOUT to the ADC. Therefore, reducing
the length of the traces connecting the MUXOUT pins (Pins
10, 11) to the ADC pins (Pins 12, 13) can minimize the
problem. The unused MUX inputs should be grounded to
prevent noise coupling into the inputs.
Figure 13 shows the power supply grounding that will help
obtain the best performance from the 12-bit/14‑bit/16‑bit
ADCs. Pay particular attention to the design of the analog
and digital ground planes. The DGND pin of the LTC1857/

LTC1857/LTC1858/LTC1859
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
LTC1858/LTC1859 can be tied to the analog ground plane.
Placing the bypass capacitor as close as possible to the
power supply pins, the reference and reference buffer output is very important. Low impedance common returns for
these bypass capacitors are essential to low noise operation
of the ADC, and the foil width for these tracks should be
as wide as possible. Also, since any potential difference in
+
–
grounds between the signal source and ADC appears as
an error voltage in series with the input signal, attention
should be paid to reducing the ground circuit impedance
as much as possible. The digital output latches and the
onboard sampling clock have been placed on the digital
ground plane. The two ground planes are tied together at
the power supply ground connection.
