The LTC®2353-18 is an 18-bit, low noise 2-channel
simultaneous sampling successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with buffered differential, wide common
mode range picoamp inputs. Operating from a 5V low
voltage supply, flexible high voltage supplies, and using
the internal reference and buffer, both channels of this
SoftSpanTM ADC can be independently configured on a
conversion-by-conversion basis to accept ±10.24V, 0V
to 10.24V, ±5.12V, or 0V to 5.12V signals. One channel
may also be disabled to increase throughput on the other
channel.
nn
The integrated picoamp-input analog buffers, wide
input common mode range and 124dB CMRR of the
LTC2353-18 allow the ADC to directly digitize a variety
of signals using minimal board space and power. This
input signal flexibility, combined with ±3.5LSB INL, no
missing codes at 18 bits, and 96.4dB SNR, makes the
LTC2353-18 an ideal choice for many high voltage applications requiring wide dynamic range.
APPLICATIONS
The LTC2353-18 supports pin-selectable SPI CMOS (1.8V
to 5V) and LVDS serial interfaces. Either one or two lanes
of data output may be employed in CMOS mode, allowing
the user to optimize bus width and throughput.

ADC TIMING CHARACTERISTICS
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: VDDLBYP is the output of an internal voltage regulator, and should
only be connected to a 2.2μF ceramic capacitor to bypass the pin to GND,
as described in the Pin Functions section. Do not connect this pin to any
external circuitry.
Note 4: When these pin voltages are taken below VEE or above VCC, they
will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents
of up to 100mA below VEE or above VCC without latch-up.
Note 5: When these pin voltages are taken below GND or above VDD or
OVDD, they will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle
currents of up to 100mA below GND or above VDD or OVDD without
latch-up.
Note 6: –16.5V ≤ VEE ≤ 0V, 7.5V ≤ VCC ≤ 38V, 10V ≤ (VCC – VEE) ≤ 38V,
VDD = 5V, unless otherwise specified.
Note 7: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 8: Exceeding these limits on one channel may corrupt conversion
results on the other channel. Driving an analog input above VCC on any
channel up to 10mA will not affect conversion results on other channels.
Driving an analog input below VEE may corrupt conversion results on other
channels. Refer to Applications Information section for further details.
Refer to Absolute Maximum Ratings section for pin voltage limits related
to device reliability.
Note 9: VCC = 15V, VEE = –15V, VDD = 5V, OVDD = 2.5V, fSMPL = 550ksps,
internal reference and buffer, true bipolar input signal drive in bipolar
SoftSpan ranges, unipolar signal drive in unipolar SoftSpan ranges, unless
otherwise specified.
Note 10: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 11: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 12: For bipolar SoftSpan ranges 7, 6, 3, and 2, zero-scale error
is the offset voltage measured from –0.5LSB when the output code
flickers between 00 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 11 1111 1111 1111 1111.
Full-scale error for these SoftSpan ranges is the worst-case deviation of
the first and last code transitions from ideal and includes the effect of
offset error. For unipolar SoftSpan ranges 5, 4, and 1, zero-scale error is
the offset voltage measured from 0.5LSB when the output code flickers
between 00 0000 0000 0000 0000 and 00 0000 0000 0000 0001. Fullscale error for these SoftSpan ranges is the worst-case deviation of the
last code transition from ideal and includes the effect of offset error.
Note 13: All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale input in the
relevant SoftSpan input range, except for crosstalk, which is referred to
the crosstalk injection signal amplitude.
Note 14: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range.
Note 15: When REFBUF is overdriven, the internal reference buffer must
be disabled by setting REFIN = 0V.
Note 16: IREFBUF varies proportionally with sample rate and the number of
active channels.
Note 17: Portions of the analog input circuitry are powered down during
conversion, reducing IVCC and IVEE. Refer to Applications Information
section for more details..
Note 18: Parameter tested and guaranteed at OVDD = 1.71V, OVDD = 2.5V,
and OVDD = 5.25V.
Note 19: A tSCKI period of 10ns minimum allows a shift clock frequency of
up to 100MHz for rising edge capture.
Note 20: VICM = 1.2V, VID = 350mV for LVDS differential input pairs.

PIN FUNCTIONS
Pins that are the Same for All Digital I/O Modes
IN0+/IN0–, IN1+/IN1– (Pins 10/9, 4/3): Positive and
Negative Analog Inputs, Channels 0 and 1. The converter
simultaneously samples and digitizes (VIN+ – VIN–) for
both channels. Wide input common mode range (VEE +
4V ≤ VCM ≤ VCC – 4V) and high common mode rejection allow the inputs to accept a wide variety of signal
swings. Full-scale input range is determined by the channel’s SoftSpan configuration.
GND (Pins 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20,
25, 30, 36, 41, 44, 46, 47, 48): Ground. Solder all GND
pins to a solid ground plane.
VCC (Pin 16): Positive High Voltage Power Supply. The
range of VCC is 7.5V to 38V with respect to GND and 10V
to 38V with respect to VEE. Bypass VCC to GND close to
the pin with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
VEE (Pins 17, 45): Negative High Voltage Power Supply.
The range of VEE is 0V to –16.5V with respect to GND and
–10V to –38V with respect to VCC. Connect Pins 17 and 45
together and bypass the VEE network to GND close to Pin
17 with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor. In applications where
VEE is shorted to GND, this capacitor may be omitted.
REFIN (Pin 19): Bandgap Reference Output/Reference
Buffer Input. An internal bandgap reference nominally
outputs 2.048V on this pin. An internal reference buffer
amplifies VREFIN to create the converter master reference
voltage VREFBUF = 2 • VREFIN on the REFBUF pin. When
using the internal reference, bypass REFIN to GND (Pin
20) close to the pin with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor to filter
the bandgap output noise. If more accuracy is desired,
overdrive REFIN with an external reference in the range
of 1.25V to 2.2V. Do not load this pin when internal reference is used.
REFBUF (Pin 21): Internal Reference Buffer Output. An
internal reference buffer amplifies VREFIN to create the
converter master reference voltage VREFBUF = 2 • VREFIN
on this pin, nominally 4.096V when using the internal
bandgap reference. Bypass REFBUF to GND (Pin 20) close
to the pin with a 47μF ceramic capacitor. The internal reference buffer may be disabled by grounding its input at
REFIN. With the buffer disabled, overdrive REFBUF with
an external reference voltage in the range of 2.5V to 5V.
When using the internal reference buffer, limit the loading
of any external circuitry connected to REFBUF to less than
200µA. Using a high input impedance amplifier to buffer
VREFBUF to any external circuits is recommended.
PD (Pin 22): Power Down Input. When this pin is brought
high, the LTC2353-18 is powered down and subsequent
conversion requests are ignored. If this occurs during a
conversion, the device powers down once the conversion
completes. If this pin is brought high twice without an
intervening conversion, an internal global reset is initiated, equivalent to a power-on-reset event. Logic levels
are determined by OVDD.
LVDS/CMOS (Pin 23): I/O Mode Select. Tie this pin to
OVDD to select LVDS I/O mode, or to ground to select
CMOS I/O mode. Logic levels are determined by OVDD.
CNV (Pin 24): Conversion Start Input. A rising edge on
this pin puts the internal sample-and-holds into the hold
mode and initiates a new conversion. CNV is not gated
by CS, allowing conversions to be initiated independent
of the state of the serial I/O bus.
BUSY (Pin 38): Busy Output. The BUSY signal indicates
that a conversion is in progress. This pin transitions lowto-high at the start of each conversion and stays high until
the conversion is complete. Logic levels are determined
by OVDD.
VDDLBYP (Pin 40): Internal 2.5V Regulator Bypass Pin. The
voltage on this pin is generated via an internal regulator
operating off of VDD. This pin must be bypassed to GND
close to the pin with a 2.2μF ceramic capacitor. Do not
connect this pin to any external circuitry.
VDD (Pins 42, 43): 5V Power Supply. The range of VDD
is 4.75V to 5.25V. Connect Pins 42 and 43 together and
bypass the VDD network to GND with a shared 0.1μF
ceramic capacitor close to the pins.

SDI+, SDI–, SDO+, SDO– (Pins 26, 27, 34, and 35): LVDS
Input and Output. In CMOS I/O mode these pins are Hi-Z.
SDI+/SDI– (Pins 26/27): LVDS Positive and Negative Serial
Data Input. Differentially drive SDI+/SDI– with the desired
6-bit SoftSpan configuration word (see Table 1a), latched
on both the rising and falling edges of SCKI+/SCKI–. The
SDI+/SDI– input pair is internally terminated with a 100Ω
differential resistor when CS is low.
SDO0, SDO1 (Pins 28, 33): CMOS Serial Data Outputs,
Channels 0 to 1. The most recent conversion result along
with channel configuration information is clocked out onto
the SDO pins on each rising edge of SCKI. Output data
formatting is described in the Digital Interface section.
Leave unused SDO outputs unconnected. Logic levels are
determined by OVDD.
SCKI (Pin 29): CMOS Serial Clock Input. Drive SCKI with
the serial I/O clock. SCKI rising edges latch serial data in
on SDI and clock serial data out on SDO0 and SDO1. For
standard SPI bus operation, capture output data at the
receiver on rising edges of SCKI. SCKI is allowed to idle
either high or low. Logic levels are determined by OVDD.
OVDD (Pin 31): I/O Interface Power Supply. In CMOS I/O
mode, the range of OVDD is 1.71V to 5.25V. Bypass OVDD
to GND (Pin 30) close to the pin with a 0.1μF ceramic
capacitor.
SCKO (Pin 32): CMOS Serial Clock Output. SCKI rising
edges trigger transitions on SCKO that are skew-matched
to the serial output data streams on SDO0 and SDO1. The
resulting SCKO frequency is half that of SCKI. Rising and
falling edges of SCKO may be used to capture SDO data at
the receiver (FPGA) in double data rate (DDR) fashion. For
standard SPI bus operation, SCKO is not used and should
be left unconnected. SCKO is forced low at the falling edge
of BUSY. Logic levels are determined by OVDD.
SDI (Pin 37): CMOS Serial Data Input. Drive this pin
with the desired 6-bit SoftSpan configuration word (see
Table 1a), latched on the rising edges of SCKI. If both
channels will be configured to operate only in SoftSpan
7, tie SDI to OVDD. Logic levels are determined by OVDD.
CS (Pin 39): Chip Select Input. The serial data I/O bus is
enabled when CS is low and is disabled and Hi-Z when
CS is high. CS also gates the external shift clock, SCKI.
Logic levels are determined by OVDD.
SCKI+/SCKI– (Pins 28/29): LVDS Positive and Negative
Serial Clock Input. Differentially drive SCKI+/SCKI– with the
serial I/O clock. SCKI+/SCKI– rising and falling edges latch
serial data in on SDI+/SDI– and clock serial data out on
SDO+/SDO–. Idle SCKI+/SCKI– low, including when transitioning CS. The SCKI+/SCKI– input pair is internally terminated with a 100Ω differential resistor when CS is low.
OVDD (Pin 31): I/O Interface Power Supply. In LVDS I/O
mode, the range of OVDD is 2.375V to 5.25V. Bypass OVDD
to GND (Pin 30) close to the pin with a 0.1μF ceramic
capacitor.
SCKO+/SCKO– (Pins 32/33): LVDS Positive and Negative
Serial Clock Output. SCKO+/SCKO– outputs a copy of the
input serial I/O clock received on SCKI+/SCKI–, skewmatched with the serial output data stream on SDO+/
SDO–. Use the rising and falling edges of SCKO+/SCKO–
to capture SDO+/SDO– data at the receiver (FPGA). The
SCKO+/SCKO– output pair must be differentially terminated with a 100Ω resistor at the receiver (FPGA).
SDO+/SDO– (Pins 34/35): LVDS Positive and Negative
Serial Data Output. The most recent conversion result
along with channel configuration information is clocked
out onto SDO+/SDO– on both rising and falling edges of
SCKI+/SCKI–, beginning with channel 0. The SDO+/SDO–
output pair must be differentially terminated with a 100Ω
resistor at the receiver (FPGA).
SDI (Pin 37): CMOS Serial Data. In LVDS I/O mode, this
pin is Hi-Z.
CS (Pin 39): Chip Select Input. The serial data I/O bus is
enabled when CS is low, and is disabled and Hi-Z when
CS is high. CS also gates the external shift clock, SCKI+/
SCKI–. The internal 100Ω differential termination resistors on the SCKI+/SCKI– and SDI+/SDI– input pairs are
disabled when CS is high. Logic levels are determined
by OVDD.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
CONVERTER OPERATION
The LTC2353-18 is an 18-bit, low noise 2-channel
simultaneous sampling successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with buffered differential, wide common
mode range picoamp inputs. The ADC operates from a
5V low voltage supply and flexible high voltage supplies,
nominally ±15V. Using the integrated low-drift reference
and buffer (VREFBUF = 4.096V nominal), both channels of
this SoftSpan ADC can be independently configured on a
conversion-by-conversion basis to accept ±10.24V, 0V to
10.24V, ±5.12V, or 0V to 5.12V signals. The input signal
range may be expanded up to ±12.5V using an external 5V
reference. One channel may also be disabled to increase
throughput on the other channel.
The LTC2353-18 operates in two phases. During the acquisition phase, the sampling capacitors in both channels’
sample-and-hold (S/H) circuit connect to their respective
analog input buffers, which track the differential analog
input voltage (VIN+ – VIN–). A rising edge on the CNV pin
transitions both channels’ S/H circuits from track mode
to hold mode, simultaneously sampling the input signals
on both channels and initiating a conversion. During the
conversion phase, both channels’ sampling capacitors
are connected, one channel at a time, to an 18-bit charge
redistribution capacitor D/A converter (CDAC). The CDAC
is sequenced through a successive approximation algorithm, effectively comparing the sampled input voltage
with binary-weighted fractions of the channel’s SoftSpan
full-scale range (e.g., VFSR/2, VFSR/4 … VFSR/262144)
using a differential comparator. At the end of this process,
the CDAC output approximates the channel’s sampled
analog input. Once both channels have been converted
in this manner, the ADC control logic prepares the 18-bit
digital output codes from each channel for serial transfer.
The integrated picoamp-input analog buffers, wide input
common mode range, and 124dB CMRR of the LTC235318 allow the ADC to directly digitize a variety of signals
using minimal board space and power. This input signal
flexibility, combined with ±3.5LSB INL, no missing codes
at 18 bits, and 96.4dB SNR, makes the LTC2353-18 an
ideal choice for many high voltage applications requiring
wide dynamic range.
The absolute common mode input range (VEE + 4V to
VCC – 4V) is determined by the choice of high voltage
supplies. These supplies may be biased asymmetrically
around ground and include the ability for VEE to be tied
directly to ground.
The LTC2353-18 supports pin-selectable SPI CMOS (1.8V
to 5V) and LVDS serial interfaces, enabling it to communicate equally well with legacy microcontrollers and modern
FPGAs. In CMOS mode, applications may employ either
one or two lanes of serial output data, allowing the user to
optimize bus width and data throughput. The LTC2353-18
typically dissipates 195mW when converting two channels simultaneously at 550ksps per channel. Optional
nap and power down modes may be employed to further
reduce power consumption during inactive periods.
TRANSFER FUNCTION
The LTC2353-18 digitizes each channel’s full-scale voltage
range into 218 levels. In conjunction with the ADC master
reference voltage, VREFBUF, a channel’s SoftSpan configuration determines its input voltage range, full-scale range,
LSB size, and the binary format of its conversion result,
as shown in Tables 1a and 1b. For example, employing
the internal reference and buffer (VREFBUF = 4.096V nominal), SoftSpan 7 configures a channel to accept a ±10.24V
bipolar analog input voltage range, which corresponds
to a 20.48V full-scale range with a 78.125μV LSB. Other
SoftSpan configurations and reference voltages may be
employed to convert both larger and smaller bipolar and
unipolar input ranges. Conversion results are output in
two’s complement binary format for all bipolar SoftSpan
ranges, and in straight binary format for all unipolar

LTC2353-18 enables it to accept a wide variety of signal
swings, including traditional classes of analog input signals such as pseudo-differential unipolar, pseudo-differential true bipolar, and fully differential, simplifying signal
chain design. For conversion of signals extending to VEE,
the unbuffered LTC2348-18 ADC is recommended.
The wide operating range of the high voltage supplies
offers further input common mode flexibility. As long as
the voltage difference limits of 10V ≤ (VCC – VEE) ≤ 38V
are observed, VCC and VEE may be independently biased
anywhere within their own individually allowed operating
ranges, including the ability for VEE to be tied directly to
ground. This feature enables the common mode input
range of the LTC2353-18 to be tailored to specific application requirements.
In all SoftSpan ranges, each channel’s analog inputs can
be modeled by the equivalent circuit shown in Figure 4. At
the start of acquisition, the sampling capacitors (CSAMP)
connect to the integrated buffers BUFFER+/BUFFER–
through the sampling switches. The sampled voltage
is reset during the conversion process and is therefore
re-acquired for each new conversion.
The diodes between the inputs and the VCC and VEE supplies provide input ESD protection. While within the supply voltages, the analog inputs of the LTC2353-18 draw
only 5pA typical DC leakage current and the ESD protection diodes don’t turn on. This offers a significant advantage over external op amp buffers, which often have diode

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Bipolar SoftSpan Input Ranges
For channels configured in SoftSpan ranges 7, 6, 3,
or 2, the LTC2353-18 digitizes the differential analog
input voltage (VIN+ – VIN–) over a bipolar span of
±2.5 • VREFBUF, ±2.5 • VREFBUF/1.024, ±1.25 • VREFBUF,
or ±1.25 • VREFBUF/1.024, respectively, as shown in Table
1a. These SoftSpan ranges are useful for digitizing input
signals where IN+ and IN– swing above and below each
other. Traditional examples include fully differential input
signals, where IN+ and IN– are driven 180 degrees outof-phase with respect to each other centered around a
common mode voltage (VIN+ + VIN–)/2, and pseudodifferential true bipolar input signals, where IN+ swings
above and below a ground reference level, driven on
IN–. Regardless of the chosen SoftSpan range, the wide
common mode input range and high CMRR of the IN+/IN–
analog inputs allow them to swing with an arbitrary
relationship to each other, provided each pin remains
between (VCC – 4V) and (VEE + 4V). The output data format
for all bipolar SoftSpan ranges is two’s complement.
Unipolar SoftSpan Input Ranges
For channels configured in SoftSpan ranges 5, 4, or 1, the
LTC2353-18 digitizes the differential analog input voltage
(VIN+ – VIN–) over a unipolar span of 0V to 2.5 • VREFBUF,
0V to 2.5 • VREFBUF/1.024, or 0V to 1.25 • VREFBUF, respectively, as shown in Table 1a. These SoftSpan ranges are
useful for digitizing input signals where IN+ remains above
IN–. A traditional example includes pseudo-differential
unipolar input signals, where IN+ swings above a ground
reference level, driven on IN–. Regardless of the chosen
SoftSpan range, the wide common mode input range and
high CMRR of the IN+/IN– analog inputs allow them to
swing with an arbitrary relationship to each other, provided
each pin remains between (VCC – 4V) and (VEE + 4V). The
output data format for all unipolar SoftSpan ranges is
straight binary.
INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
The CMOS buffer input stage offers a very high degree
of transient isolation from the sampling process. Most
sensors, signal conditioning amplifiers and filter networks
with less than 10kΩ of impedance can drive the passive
3pF analog input capacitance directly. For higher impedances and slow-settling circuits, add a 680pF capacitor at the pins to maintain the full DC accuracy of the
LTC2353-18.
The very high input impedance of the unity gain buffers in
the LTC2353-18 greatly reduces the input drive requirements and makes it possible to include optional RC filters
with kΩ impedance and arbitrarily slow time constants
for anti-aliasing or other purposes. Micropower op amps
with limited drive capability are also well suited to drive
the high impedance analog inputs directly.
The LTC2353-18 features proprietary circuitry to achieve
exceptional internal crosstalk isolation between channels
(–121dB typical). The PC board wiring to the analog inputs
should be short and shielded to prevent external capacitive crosstalk between channels. The capacitance between
adjacent package pins is 0.16pF. Low source resistance
and/or high source capacitance help reduce external
capacitively coupled crosstalk. Single ended input drive
also enjoys additional external crosstalk isolation because
every other input pin is grounded, or at a low impedance
DC source, and serves as a shield between channels.
INPUT OVERDRIVE TOLERANCE
Driving an analog input above VCC on any channel up to
10mA will not affect conversion results on other channels. Approximately 70% of this overdrive current will
flow out of the VCC pin and the remaining 30% will flow
out of VEE. This current flowing out of VEE will produce
heat across the VCC – VEE voltage drop and must be taken
into account for the total Absolute Maximum power dissipation of 500mW. Driving an analog input below VEE
may corrupt conversion results on other channels. This
product can handle input currents of up to 100mA below
VEE or above VCC without latch-up.
Keep in mind that driving the inputs above VCC or below
VEE may reverse the normal current flow from the external
power supplies driving these pins.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Input Filtering
The true high impedance analog inputs can accommodate
a very wide range of passive or active signal conditioning
filters. The buffered ADC inputs have an analog bandwidth
of 6MHz, and impose no particular bandwidth requirement on external filters. The external input filters can
therefore be optimized independent of the ADC to reduce
signal chain noise and interference. A common filter configuration is the simple anti-aliasing and noise reducing
RC filter with its pole at half the sampling frequency. For
example, 275ksps with R=845Ω and C=680pF as shown
in Figure 5.

Figure 5. Filtering Single-Ended Input Signals
High quality capacitors and resistors should be used in
the RC filters since these components can add distortion.
NPO/COG and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have
excellent linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can
generate distortion from self-heating and from damage
that may occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount
resistors are much less susceptible to both problems.
Arbitrary and Fully Differential Analog Input Signals
The wide common mode input range and high CMRR of
the LTC2353-18 allow each channel’s IN+ and IN– pins to
swing with an arbitrary relationship to each other, provided
each pin remains between (VCC – 4V) and (VEE + 4V). This
feature of the LTC2353-18 enables it to accept a wide
variety of signal swings, simplifying signal chain design.
The two-tone test shown in Figure 6b demonstrates
the arbitrary input drive capability of the LTC2353-18.
This test simultaneously drives IN+ with a −7dBFS 2kHz
single-ended sine wave and IN− with a −7dBFS 3.1kHz
single-ended sine wave. Together, these signals sweep
the analog inputs across a wide range of common mode
and differential mode voltage combinations, similar to
the more general arbitrary input signal case. They also
have a simple spectral representation. An ideal differential
converter with no common-mode sensitivity will digitize
this signal as two −7dBFS spectral tones, one at each sine
wave frequency. The FFT plot in Figure 6b demonstrates
the LTC2353-18 response approaches this ideal, with
121dB of SFDR limited by the converter's second harmonic distortion response to the 3.1kHz sine wave on IN–.
The ability of the LTC2353-18 to accept arbitrary signal
swings over a wide input common mode range with high
CMRR can simplify application solutions. In practice,
many sensors produce a differential sensor voltage riding
on top of a large common mode signal. Figure 7a depicts
one way of using the LTC2353-18 to digitize signals of
this type. The amplifier stage provides a differential gain of
approximately 10V/V to the desired sensor signal while the
unwanted common mode signal is attenuated by the ADC
CMRR. The circuit employs the ±5V SoftSpan range of
the ADC. Figure 7b shows measured CMRR performance
of this solution, which is competitive with the best commercially available instrumentation amplifiers. Figure 7c
shows measured AC performance of this solution.
In Figure 8, another application circuit is shown which
uses both channels of the LTC2353-18 to simultaneously
sense the voltage and bidirectional current through a
sense resistor over a wide common mode range.

LTC2353-18

As shown previously in Table 1b, the LTC2353-18 supports three reference configurations. The first uses both
the internal bandgap reference and reference buffer. The
second externally overdrives the internal reference but
retains the internal buffer, which isolates the external reference from ADC conversion transients. This configuration is ideal for sharing a single precision external reference across multiple ADCs. The third disables the internal
buffer and overdrives the REFBUF pin externally.

If more accuracy and/or lower drift is desired, REFIN can
be easily overdriven by an external reference since 20kΩ
of resistance separates the internal bandgap reference
output from the REFIN pin, as shown in Figure 9b. The
valid range of external reference voltage overdrive on the
REFIN pin is 1.25V to 2.2V, resulting in converter master reference voltages VREFBUF between 2.5V and 4.4V,
respectively. Analog Devices offers a portfolio of high
performance references designed to meet the needs of
many applications. With its small size, low power, and
high accuracy, the LTC6655-2.048 is well suited for
use with the LTC2353-18 when overdriving the internal

REFERENCE
0.1µF
Internal Reference with Internal Buffer
The LTC2353-18 has an on-chip, low noise, low drift
(20ppm/°C maximum), temperature compensated bandgap reference that is factory trimmed to 2.048V. The
reference output connects through a 20kΩ resistor to
the REFIN pin, which serves as the input to the on-chip
reference buffer, as shown in Figure 9a. When employing
the internal bandgap reference, the REFIN pin should be
bypassed to GND (Pin 20) close to the pin with a 0.1μF
ceramic capacitor to filter wideband noise. The reference
buffer amplifies VREFIN to create the converter master
reference voltage VREFBUF = 2 • VREFIN on the REFBUF
pin, nominally 4.096V when using the internal bandgap
reference. Bypass REFBUF to GND (Pin 20) close to the
pin with at least a 47μF ceramic capacitor (X7R, 10V,
1210 size or X5R, 10V, 0805 size) to compensate the
reference buffer, absorb transient conversion currents,
and minimize noise.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
External Reference with Disabled Internal Buffer
The internal reference buffer supports VREFBUF = 4.4V
maximum. By grounding REFIN, the internal buffer may
be disabled allowing REFBUF to be overdriven with an
external reference voltage between 2.5V and 5V, as shown
in Figure 9c. Maximum input signal swing and SNR are
achieved by overdriving REFBUF using an external 5V reference. The buffer feedback resistors load the REFBUF pin
with 13kΩ even when the reference buffer is disabled. The
LTC6655-5 offers the same small size, accuracy, drift,
and extended temperature range as the LTC6655-2.048,
and achieves a typical SNR of 97.9dB when paired with
the LTC2353-18. Bypass the LTC6655-5 to GND (Pin 20)
close to the REFBUF pin with at least a 47μF ceramic
capacitor (X7R, 10V, 1210 size or X5R, 10V, 0805 size) to
absorb transient conversion currents and minimize noise.
The LTC2353-18 converter draws a charge (QCONV) from
the REFBUF pin during each conversion cycle. On short
time scales most of this charge is supplied by the external REFBUF bypass capacitor, but on longer time scales
all of the charge is supplied by either the reference buffer, or when the internal reference buffer is disabled, the
external reference. This charge draw corresponds to a
DC current equivalent of IREFBUF = QCONV • fSMPL, which
is proportional to sample rate. In applications where a
burst of samples is taken after idling for long periods
of time, as shown in Figure 10, IREFBUF quickly transitions from approximately 0.4mA to 1.2mA (VREFBUF = 5V,
fSMPL = 550ksps). This current step triggers a transient
response in the external reference that must be considered, since any deviation in VREFBUF affects converter
accuracy. If an external reference is used to overdrive
REFBUF, the fast settling LTC6655 family of references is
recommended.
Internal Reference Buffer Transient Response
For optimum performance in applications employing
burst sampling, the external reference with internal reference buffer configuration should be used. The internal
reference buffer incorporates a proprietary design that
minimizes movements in VREFBUF when responding to a
burst of conversions following an idle period. Figure 11
compares the burst conversion response of the LTC235318 with an input near full scale for two reference configurations. The first configuration employs the internal
reference buffer with REFIN externally overdriven by an
LTC6655-2.048, while the second configuration disables
the internal reference buffer and overdrives REFBUF with
an external LTC6655-4.096. In both cases REFBUF is
bypassed to GND with a 47µF ceramic capacitor.

range, complementing the extended temperature range
of the LTC2353-18 up to 125°C. Bypassing the LTC66552.048 with a 2.7µF to 100µF ceramic capacitor close to
the REFIN pin is recommended.

LTC2353-18
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Fast Fourier transform (FFT) 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. The LTC2353-18 provides
guaranteed tested limits for both AC distortion and noise
measurements.
Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD)
The signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency and the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the A/D output. The output is band-limited
to frequencies below half the sampling frequency, excluding DC. Figure 12 shows that the LTC2353-18 achieves a
typical SINAD of 96.2dB in the ±10.24V range at a 550ksps
sampling rate with a true bipolar 2kHz input signal.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio between the
RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and
the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components
except the first five harmonics and DC. Figure 12 shows
that the LTC2353-18 achieves a typical SNR of 96.3dB in
the ±10.24V range at a 550ksps sampling rate with a true
bipolar 2kHz input signal.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
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 (fSMPL/2). THD is expressed as:
THD = 20 log
V22
+
V32
+
V42 ...VN2
V1
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the
second through Nth harmonics, respectively. Figure 12
shows that the LTC2353-18 achieves a typical THD of
–111dB (N = 6) in the ±10.24V range at a 550ksps sampling rate with a true bipolar 2kHz input signal.

POWER CONSIDERATIONS
The LTC2353-18 requires four power supplies: the positive and negative high voltage power supplies (VCC and
VEE), the 5V core power supply (VDD) and the digital input/
output (I/O) interface power supply (OVDD). As long as
the voltage difference limits of 10V ≤ VCC – VEE ≤ 38V
are observed, VCC and VEE may be independently biased
anywhere within their own individual allowed operating
ranges, including the ability for VEE to be tied directly to
ground. This feature enables the common mode input
range of the LTC2353-18 to be tailored to the specific
application’s requirements. The flexible OVDD supply
allows the LTC2353-18 to communicate with CMOS logic
operating between 1.8V and 5V, including 2.5V and 3.3V
systems. When using LVDS I/O mode, the range of OVDD
is 2.375V to 5.25V.
Power Supply Sequencing
The LTC2353-18 does not have any specific power supply sequencing requirements. Care should be taken to
adhere to the maximum voltage relationships described
in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section. The LTC235318 has an internal power-on-reset (POR) circuit which
235318f
For more information www.linear.com/LTC2353-18
27
LTC2353-18
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
resets the converter on initial power-up and whenever
VDD drops below 2V. Once the supply voltage re-enters
the nominal supply voltage range, the POR reinitializes
the ADC. No conversions should be initiated until at least
10ms after a POR event to ensure the initialization period
has ended. When employing the internal reference buffer,
allow 200ms for the buffer to power up and recharge the
REFBUF bypass capacitor. Any conversion initiated before
these times will produce invalid results.
TIMING AND CONTROL
CNV Timing
The LTC2353-18 sampling and conversion is controlled
by CNV. A rising edge on CNV transitions both channels’
S/H circuits from track mode to hold mode, simultaneously sampling the input signals on both channels and
initiating a conversion. Once a conversion has been
started, it cannot be terminated early except by resetting
the ADC, as discussed in the Reset Timing section. For
optimum performance, drive CNV with a clean, low jitter
signal and avoid transitions on data I/O lines leading up to
the rising edge of CNV. Additionally, to minimize channelto-channel crosstalk, avoid high slew rates on the analog
inputs for 100ns before and after the rising edge of CNV.
Converter status is indicated by the BUSY output, which
transitions low-to-high at the start of each conversion and
stays high until the conversion is complete. Once CNV is
brought high to begin a conversion, it should be returned
low between 40ns and 60ns later or after the falling edge
of BUSY to minimize external disturbances during the
internal conversion process. The CNV timing required to
take advantage of the reduced power nap mode of operation is described in the Nap Mode section.
Internal Conversion Clock
The LTC2353-18 has an internal clock that is trimmed to
achieve a maximum conversion time of 550•N ns with N
channels enabled. With a minimum acquisition time of
685ns when converting both channels simultaneously,
throughput performance of 550ksps is guaranteed without any external adjustments. Also note that the minimum
acquisition time varies with sampling frequency (fSMPL)
and the number of enabled channels.
Nap Mode
The LTC2353-18 can be placed into nap mode after a
conversion has been completed to reduce power consumption between conversions. In this mode a portion
of the device circuitry is turned off, including circuits
associated with sampling the analog input signals. Nap
mode is enabled by keeping CNV high between conversions, as shown in Figure 13. To initiate a new conversion
after entering nap mode, bring CNV low and hold for at
least 750ns before bringing it high again. The converter
acquisition time (tACQ) is set by the CNV low time (tCNVL)
when using nap mode.
Power Down Mode
When PD is brought high, the LTC2353-18 is powered
down and subsequent conversion requests are ignored. If
this occurs during a conversion, the device powers down

reduced, as shown in Figure 15. This decrease in average power dissipation occurs because a portion of the
LTC2353-18 circuitry is turned off during nap mode, and
the fraction of the conversion cycle (tCYC) spent napping
increases as the sampling frequency (fSMPL) is decreased.

once the conversion completes. In this mode, the device
draws only a small regulator standby current resulting in a
typical power dissipation of 0.60mW. To exit power down
mode, bring the PD pin low and wait at least 10ms before
initiating a conversion. When employing the internal reference buffer, allow 200ms for the buffer to power up and
recharge the REFBUF bypass capacitor. Any conversion
initiated before these times will produce invalid results.
Reset Timing
A global reset of the LTC2353-18, equivalent to a poweron-reset event, may be executed without needing to cycle
the supplies. This feature is useful when recovering from
system-level events that require the state of the entire system to be reset to a known synchronized value. To initiate
a global reset, bring PD high twice without an intervening conversion, as shown in Figure 14. The reset event
is triggered on the second rising edge of PD, and asynchronously ends based on an internal timer. Reset clears
all serial data output registers and restores the internal
SoftSpan configuration register default state of all channels in SoftSpan 7. If reset is triggered during a conversion, the conversion is immediately halted. The normal
power down behavior associated with PD going high is
not affected by reset. Once PD is brought low, wait at least
10ms before initiating a conversion. When employing the
internal reference buffer, allow 200ms for the buffer to
power up and recharge the REFBUF bypass capacitor. Any
conversion initiated before these times will produce invalid
results.

DIGITAL INTERFACE
The LTC2353-18 features CMOS and LVDS serial interfaces, selectable using the LVDS/CMOS pin. The flexible
OVDD supply allows the LTC2353-18 to communicate with
any CMOS logic operating between 1.8V and 5V, including
2.5V and 3.3V systems, while the LVDS interface supports low noise digital designs. In CMOS mode, applications may employ either one or two lanes of serial data
output, allowing the user to optimize bus width and data
throughput. Together, these I/O interface options enable
the LTC2353-18 to communicate equally well with legacy
microcontrollers and modern FPGAs.

Figure 16. Serial CMOS I/O Mode
Serial CMOS I/O Mode
As shown in Figure 16, in CMOS I/O mode the serial data
bus consists of a serial clock input, SCKI, serial data input,
SDI, serial clock output, SCKO, and two lanes of serial
data output, SDO0 and SDO1. Communication with the
LTC2353-18 across this bus occurs during predefined
data transaction windows. Within a window, the device
accepts 6-bit SoftSpan configuration words for the next
conversion on SDI and outputs 24-bit packets containing
conversion results and channel configuration information
from the previous conversion on SDO0 and SDO1. New
data transaction windows open 10ms after powering up
or resetting the LTC2353-18, and at the end of each conversion on the falling edge of BUSY. In the recommended
use case, the data transaction should be completed with
a minimum tQUIET time of 20ns prior to the start of the
next conversion, as shown in Figure 16. New SoftSpan
configuration words are only accepted within this recommended data transaction window, but SoftSpan changes
take effect immediately with no additional analog input
settling time required before starting the next conversion.
It is still possible to read conversion data after starting the
next conversion, but this will degrade conversion accuracy and therefore is not recommended.
Just prior to the falling edge of BUSY and the opening of
a new data transaction window, SCKO is forced low and
SDO0 and SDO1 are updated with the latest conversion
results from analog input channels 0 and 1, respectively.
Rising edges on SCKI serially clock conversion results
and analog input channel configuration information out on
SDO0 and SDO1 and trigger transitions on SCKO that are
skew-matched to the data on SDO0 and SDO1. The resulting SCKO frequency is half that of SCKI. SCKI rising edges
also latch SoftSpan configuration words provided on SDI,

which are used to program the internal 6-bit SoftSpan
configuration register. See the section Programming the
SoftSpan Configuration Register in CMOS I/O Mode for
further details. SCKI is allowed to idle either high or low
in CMOS I/O mode. As shown in Figure 17, the CMOS
bus is enabled when CS is low and is disabled and Hi-Z
when CS is high, allowing the bus to be shared across
multiple devices.
The data on SDO0 and SDO1 are grouped into 24-bit
packets consisting of an 18-bit conversion result, followed by two zeros, 1-bit analog channel ID, and 3-bit
SoftSpan code, all presented MSB first. As suggested in
Figures 16 and 17, each SDO lane outputs these packets
for both analog input channels in a sequential, alternating
manner. For example, SDO0 first outputs the 24-bit packet
corresponding to analog input channel 0, then outputs the
packet for channel 1, then continues to alternate between
packets for channels 0 and 1. Likewise, SDO1 has the
same alternating pattern as SDO0, but starting with the
output for channel 1.
When interfacing the LTC2353-18 with a standard SPI
bus, capture output data at the receiver on rising edges
of SCKI. SCKO is not used in this case. Multiple SDO
lanes are also usually not useful in this case. In other
applications, such as interfacing the LTC2353-18 with
an FPGA or CPLD, rising and falling edges of SCKO may
be used to capture serial output data on SDO0 and SDO1
in double data rate (DDR) fashion. Capturing data using
SCKO adds robustness to delay variations over temperature and supply.
Two Lane Serial CMOS Output Data Capture
As shown in Table 2, full 550ksps per channel throughput
can be achieved with a 25MHz SCKI frequency by capturing the first packet (24 SCKI cycles total) from both serial
data output lanes (SDO0 and SDO1). This configuration
also allows conversion results from both channels to be
captured using as few as 18 SCKI cycles if the 1-bit analog
channel ID and 3-bit SoftSpan code are not needed. Two
lane data capture is usually best suited for use with FPGA
or CPLD capture hardware, but may be useful in other
application-specific cases.

LTC2353-18
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
One Lane Serial CMOS Output Data Capture
Applications that cannot accommodate two lanes of
serial data capture may employ just one lane without
reconfiguring the LTC2353-18. For example, capturing
two packets (48 SCKI cycles total) from SDO0 or SDO1
provides data for both analog input channels. As shown
in Table 2, full 550ksps per channel throughput can be
achieved with a 74MHz SCKI frequency in the one lane
case. The LTC2353-18 supports CMOS SCKI frequencies
up to 100MHz.
Programming the SoftSpan Configuration Register in
CMOS I/O Mode
The internal 6-bit SoftSpan configuration register controls the SoftSpan range for both analog input channels
of the LTC2353-18. The default state of this register after
power-up or resetting the device is all ones, configuring
both channels to convert in SoftSpan 7, the ±2.5 • VREFBUF
range (see Table 1a). The state of this register may be
modified by providing a new 6-bit SoftSpan configuration
word on SDI during the data transaction window shown
in Figure 16. New SoftSpan configuration words are only
accepted within this recommended data transaction window, but SoftSpan changes take effect immediately with
no additional analog input settling time required before
starting the next conversion. Setting a channel’s SoftSpan
code to SS[2:0] = 000 immediately disables the channel, resulting in a corresponding reduction in tCONV on
the next conversion. Similarly, enabling a previously disabled channel requires no additional analog input settling
time before starting the next conversion. The mapping
between the serial SoftSpan configuration word, the internal SoftSpan configuration register, and each channel’s
3-bit SoftSpan code is illustrated in Figure 18.
If fewer than 6 SCKI rising edges are provided during
a data transaction window, the partial word received on
SDI will be ignored and the SoftSpan configuration register will not be updated. If exactly 6 SCKI rising edges
are provided, the SoftSpan configuration register will be
updated to match the received SoftSpan configuration

Figure 18. Mapping Between Serial SoftSpan Configuration Word, Internal SoftSpan
Configuration Register, and SoftSpan Code for Each Analog Input Channel
word, S[5:0]. The one exception to this behavior occurs
when S[5:0] is all zeros. In this case, the SoftSpan configuration register will not be updated, allowing applications to retain the current SoftSpan configuration state
by idling SDI low. If more than 6 SCKI rising edges are
provided during a data transaction window, each complete 6-bit word received on SDI will be interpreted as
a new SoftSpan configuration word and applied to the
SoftSpan configuration register as described above. Any
partial words are ignored.
Typically, applications will update the SoftSpan configuration register in the manner shown in Figures 16 and 17.
After the opening of a new data transaction window at the
falling edge of BUSY, the user supplies a 6-bit SoftSpan
configuration word on SDI during the first 6 SCKI cycles.
This new word overwrites the internal configuration register contents following the 6th SCKI rising edge. The
user then holds SDI low for the remainder of the data
transaction window causing the register to retain its contents regardless of the number of additional SCKI cycles
applied. SoftSpan settings may be retained across multiple conversions by holding SDI low for the entire data
transaction window, regardless of the number of SCKI
cycles applied.
Serial LVDS I/O Mode
In LVDS I/O mode, information is transmitted using positive and negative signal pairs (LVDS+/LVDS−) with bits
differentially encoded as (LVDS+ − LVDS−). These signals
are typically routed using differential transmission lines
with 100Ω characteristic impedance. Logical 1’s and 0’s
are nominally represented by differential +350mV and
−350mV, respectively. For clarity, all LVDS timing diagrams and interface discussions adopt the logical rather
than physical convention.

As shown in Figure 19, in LVDS I/O mode the serial data
bus consists of a serial clock differential input, SCKI,
serial data differential input, SDI, serial clock differential

Communication with the LTC2353-18 across this bus
occurs during predefined data transaction windows.
Within a window, the device accepts 6-bit SoftSpan

Just prior to the falling edge of BUSY and the opening
of a new data transaction window, SDO is updated with
the latest conversion results from analog input channel
0. Both rising and falling edges on SCKI serially clock
conversion results and analog input channel configuration
information out on SDO. SCKI is also echoed on SCKO,
skew-matched to the data on SDO. Whenever possible,
it is recommended that rising and falling edges of SCKO
be used to capture DDR serial output data on SDO, as
this will yield the best robustness to delay variations over
supply and temperature. SCKI rising and falling edges
also latch SoftSpan configuration words provided on SDI,
which are used to program the internal 6-bit SoftSpan
configuration register. See the section Programming the

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CS is high, allowing the bus to be shared across multiple
devices. Due to the high speeds involved in LVDS signaling, LVDS bus sharing must be carefully considered.
Transmission line limitations imposed by the shared bus
may limit the maximum achievable bus clock speed. LVDS
inputs are internally terminated with a 100Ω differential
resistor when CS is low, while outputs must be differentially terminated with a 100Ω resistor at the receiver
(FPGA). SCKI must idle in the low state in LVDS I/O mode,
including when transitioning CS.
The data on SDO are grouped into 24-bit packets consisting of an 18-bit conversion result, followed by two zeros,
1-bit analog channel ID, and 3-bit SoftSpan code, all presented MSB first. As suggested in Figures 19 and 20, SDO
outputs these packets for both analog input channels in
a sequential, alternating manner. For example, SDO first
outputs the 24-bit packet corresponding to analog input
channel 0, then outputs the packet for channel 1, then
continues to alternate between packets for channels 0
and 1.
Serial LVDS Output Data Capture
As shown in Table 2, full 550ksps per channel throughput
can be achieved with a 37MHz SCKI frequency by capturing two packets (24 SCKI cycles total) of DDR data from
SDO. The LTC2353-18 supports LVDS SCKI frequencies
up to 250MHz.

SoftSpan configuration register, and each channel’s 3-bit

If fewer than 6 SCKI edges (rising plus falling) are provided

register will not be updated. If exactly 6 SCKI edges are
provided, the SoftSpan configuration register will be updated to match the received SoftSpan configuration word,
S[5:0]. The one exception to this behavior occurs when
S[5:0] is all zeros. In this case, the SoftSpan configuration register will not be updated, allowing applications to

Typically, applications will update the SoftSpan configuration register in the manner shown in Figures 19 and 20.
After the opening of a new data transaction window at
the falling edge of BUSY, the user supplies a 6-bit DDR
SoftSpan configuration word on SDI during the first 3
SCKI cycles. This new word overwrites the internal configuration register contents following the 3rd SCKI falling
edge. The user then holds SDI low for the remainder of
the data transaction window causing the register to retain
its contents regardless of the number of additional SCKI
cycles applied. SoftSpan settings may be retained across
multiple conversions by holding SDI low for the entire
data transaction window, regardless of the number of
SCKI cycles applied.
BOARD LAYOUT
To obtain the best performance from the LTC2353-18, a
four-layer printed circuit board (PCB) is recommended.
Layout for the PCB 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 clocks or
signals alongside analog signals or underneath the ADC.
Also minimize the length of the REFBUF to GND (Pin 20)
bypass capacitor return loop, and avoid routing CNV near
signals which could potentially disturb its rising edge.
Supply bypass capacitors should be placed as close as
possible to the supply pins. Low impedance common returns for these bypass capacitors are essential to the low
noise operation of the ADC. A single solid ground plane
is recommended for this purpose. When possible, screen
the analog input traces using ground.
