ADS1288 32-Bit, Delta-Sigma ADC for Seismic Applications
1 Features
3 Description
•
The ADS1288 is a 32-bit, low-power, analog-todigital converter (ADC), with a programmable gain
amplifier (PGA) and a finite impulse response (FIR)
filter. The ADC is designed for the demanding
requirements of seismology equipment requiring low
power consumption to extend battery run time.

Power consumption:
– PGA operation: 5mW (typical)
– Buffer operation: 3mW (typical)
Dynamic range:
– PGA gain: 1, 500SPS (122dB, typical)
– Buffer operation: 500SPS (122dB, typical)
THD: < –120dB (typical)
CMRR: 120dB (typical)
Flexible digital filter:
– Selectable sinc + FIR + IIR
– Linear or minimum phase
– High-pass filter
Data rates: 125SPS to 2000SPS
PGA gains: 1 to 64
SYNC input
Clock error compensation
Two-channel multiplexer
Offset and gain calibration
General-purpose digital I/Os
Analog supply operation: 5V, 3.3V, or ±2.5V
The low-noise PGA extends the ADC dynamic
range through gains 1 to 64. The PGA allows
direct connection to geophones and transformercoupled hydrophones without the need of an external
amplifier. The optional unity-gain buffer reduces
power consumption.
The ADC incorporates a high-resolution, delta-sigma
(ΔΣ) modulator and a FIR filter with programmable
phase response. The high-pass filter removes dc
and low-frequency content from the signal. Clock
frequency error is compensated by the sample rate
converter with up to 7ppb frequency accuracy.
The ADC supports 3.3V operation to minimize device
power consumption. Power consumption is 3mW
(typical) in buffer mode operation and 5mW (typical)
in PGA mode operation.

Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If briefly operating outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not
sustain damage, but it may not be fully functional – this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device
lifetime.
Analog input pins AIN1P, AIN1N, AIN2P, AIN2N, REFP and REFN are diode-clamped to AVDD1 and AVSS. Limit the input current to
10mA in the event the analog input voltage exceeds AVDD1 + 0.3V or AVSS – 0.3V. Digital input pins are clamped to IOVDD and
DGND. Limit the input current if the digital input voltage exceeds IOVDD + 0.3V or DGND – 0.3V.

6 Parameter Measurement Information
6.1 Noise Performance
The ADS1288 is a low-power, low-noise, delta-sigma ADC operating on the principle of oversampling.
Oversampling averages the high-frequency data of the modulator to produce the final output data. Increasing the
oversampling ratio lowers the data rate, the corresponding signal bandwidth, and total noise by averaging more
samples from the modulator to yield one conversion result.
The gain of the PGA reduces noise when the noise value is referred to the input. With increased gain, dynamic
range performance decreases because the ratio of the input voltage range to the input-referred voltage noise
also decreases.
Dynamic range and input noise are equivalent parameters that describe the available resolution of the ADC.
Equation 1 derives dynamic range from the input-referred noise data:
Dynamic Range (dB) = 20×log
1.768 V
Gain × en
(1)
where:
•
en = Input-referred voltage noise (RMS)
Table 6-1 shows dynamic range and input-referred noise performance, tested with input source resistance (RS) =
0Ω. Noise data are at TA = 25°C and are representative of typical ADC performance. The data are the standard
deviation of 4096 consecutive ADC conversion results with the ADC inputs shorted, measured over the 0.413
× fDATA bandwidth. Because of the statistical nature of noise, repeated measurements can yield varying noise
performance results.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The ADS1288 is a high-resolution, low-power analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed for applications
in energy exploration, geology, and seismic monitoring where low-power consumption and high resolution
are required. The output data resolution is 32 bits spanning data rates from 125SPS to 2000SPS. The
programmable gain amplifier (PGA) expands the system dynamic range with seven input ranges of ±2.5VPP
to ±0.039VPP.
As illustrated in the Functional Block Diagram, the ADC consists of the following sections: input multiplexer
(MUX), programmable gain amplifier (PGA), unity-gain buffer, delta-sigma (ΔΣ) modulator, sample rate
converter, infinite impulse response (IIR) high-pass filter (HPF), finite impulse response (FIR) low-pass filter
(LPF), and an SPI-compatible serial interface used for both device configuration and conversion data readback.

SBASAW0 – FEBRUARY 2024
The input multiplexer selects between inputs 1 and 2, and internal options designed for self-test, including an
input-short connection to test device offset and noise performance.
The input multiplexer is followed by a low-noise PGA. The range of PGA gains is 1 to 16, with gains 32 and 64
implemented as digital gains. The PGA is chopper-stabilized to reduce 1/f noise and input offset voltage. The
PGA output connects to a buffer which drives the modulator. An external 10nF capacitor, connected to PGA
output pins CAPP and CAPN, provides an antialias filter for the input signal.
Disable the PGA to lower device power consumption by operating the ADC with the unity-gain buffer. External
47nF capacitors connected to each buffer output filter the modulator sampling pulses.
The ΔΣ modulator measures the differential input signal (VIN) at the PGA output against the differential reference
voltage (VREF = 2.5V). Modulator data are processed by the digital filter to provide the final conversion result.
The digital filter consists of a sinc filter followed by a programmable phase, FIR low-pass filter, and an IIR
high-pass filter. The high-pass filter removes dc and low-frequency components from the data.
The sample rate converter (SRC) compensates clock signal error by resampling the output data to correct the
output data rate. Write the desired compensation value to the SRC register for data rate correction with up to
7ppb accuracy.
User-programmable gain and offset calibration registers correct offset and gain errors.
The SYNC pin synchronizes the ADC. Synchronization has two modes of operation: pulse synchronization and
continuous synchronization. The RESET pin resets the ADC, including user-configuration settings. The pins are
noise-resistant, Schmitt-trigger inputs to increase reliability in high-noise environments.
The PWDN pin powers down the ADC when not in use. The software power-down mode (STANDBY) is available
through the serial interface
The 4-wire, SPI-compatible, serial interface reads conversion data and reads or writes device register data.
Two general-purpose digital I/Os are available to control external switches for diagnostic tests.
Power for the PGA and buffer is supplied by pins AVDD1 and AVSS. A charge pump voltage regulator increases
the buffer supply voltage to increase input voltage range. Power for the modulator is supplied by the AVDD2 pin.
The digital I/O voltage pin (IOVDD) powers the digital logic core through a 1.8V low-dropout regulator (LDO).

Figure 7-1. Analog Input and Multiplexer
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes are incorporated to protect the ADC inputs from ESD events that occur
during device manufacturing and printed circuit board (PCB) assembly process when assembled in an ESDcontrolled environment. For system-level protection, consider using external ESD protection devices to protect
the input that are exposed to ESD events.
If the inputs are driven below AVSS – 0.3V, or above AVDD1 + 0.3V, the protection diodes can conduct. If
these conditions are possible, use external clamp diodes, series resistors, or both to limit input current to the
specified maximum value. Overdriving an unused input channel can affect the conversion results of the active
input channel. Clamp the overdriven voltage with Schottky diodes to prevent channel crosstalk.
The ADC incorporates two differential input channels. The multiplexer selects between the two differential inputs
for measurement. A test mode to measure noise and offset is also provided by the multiplexer. The shorted input
test configuration is available with or without the 400Ω resistors to simulate the thermal noise generated by an
800Ω geophone. Table 7-1 summarizes the multiplexer configurations.

0Ω input-short test mode for offset and noise test.
To test geophone THD performance, apply a test signal to the test channel through series resistors. The series
resistors are typically half the value of the geophone impedance. Select the multiplexer for the cross-connection
test mode (MUX[2:0] = 011b). In cross-connection mode, the test signal is cross-fed to the geophone input.

Geophone THD test performance can be affected by the nonlinear on-resistance of the multiplexer (RSW). Figure
7-2 shows a model of the input multiplexer resistance for the geophone THD test. Figure 7-3 shows THD
performance versus a test resistor (RLOAD) used to simulate geophone resistance. Small amplitude test signals
(such as, VIN = 0.221V), shows less THD performance degradation for geophone resistance < 500Ω.

The device can be operated with the PGA or the unity-gain buffer. Buffer operation disables the PGA, reducing
device power consumption. Because of the limited input headroom for PGA gain = 1 when operating AVDD1 at
3.3V, the buffer must be used in this condition.
7.3.2.1 Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA)
The PGA is a low-noise, chopper-stabilized differential amplifier that extends the ADC dynamic range
performance. The PGA provides analog gains from 1 to 16, with gains of 32 and 64 provided by digital scaling.
The PGA output signal is routed to the CAPP and CAPN pins through 270Ω resistors. Connect an external 10nF,
C0G-dielectric capacitor across these pins. An antialias filter is formed by these components to attenuate the
signal level at the modulator aliasing frequency (fMOD).

As illustrated in Figure 7-4, the buffer is used between the PGA and the modulator. Connect two 47nF, C0Gdielectric capacitors from each buffer output to AVSS (CAPBP and CAPBN). A voltage charge pump increases
the buffer input voltage headroom. Connect an external 4.7nF capacitor between CAPC and AGND for charge
pump operation.
The PGA gain is programmed by the GAIN[2:0] bits of the CONFIG1 register. Table 7-2 shows the PGA gain
settings and buffer selection.

Observe the PGA input and output voltage headroom specification. Figure 7-5 shows the input and output
voltage headroom when operating with AVDD1 = 5V, an input common-mode voltage (VCM) = 2.5V, a differential
input voltage = ±2.5VPP, and at gain = 1. The absolute minimum and maximum PGA input voltages (1.25V and
3.75V) are ±1/2 of the differential signal voltage plus the common-mode voltage. The PGA provides 0.15V input
voltage margin at the negative peak and 0.4V input voltage margin at the positive peak. The PGA provides 1.1V
output voltage margin at the positive and negative peaks.

7.3.2.2 Buffer Operation (PGA Bypass)
The ADC provides a buffer option, bypassing the PGA. The PGA is powered-down in buffer mode. Use the
buffer for ±2.5VPP input signals when operating AVDD1 at 3.3V. Buffer operation is enabled by setting the
GAIN[2:0] bits = 111b of the CONFIG1 register.
Figure 7-7 shows the buffer voltage headroom with AVDD1 = 3.3V, VCM = 1.65V, and the input signal = ±2.5VPP.
The buffer has sufficient voltage headroom for ±2.5VPP input signals when operating with AVDD1 = 3.3V.

Figure 7-7. Buffer Headroom (3.3V Operation Shown)
Regardless of PGA or buffer operation, connect two 47nF, C0G-dielectric capacitors from each buffer output to
AVSS (CAPBP and CAPBN). The voltage charge pump increases the buffer input operating headroom. Connect
an external 4.7nF capacitor between CAPC and AGND for the charge pump operation.
7.3.3 Voltage Reference Input
The ADC requires a reference voltage for operation. The reference voltage input is differential, defined as the
voltage between the REFP and REFN pins: VREF = VREFP – VREFN. Because of the differential input, route
the VREFN trace to the voltage reference ground terminal to avoid ground noise pickup. Use a precision 2.5V
voltage reference with low noise, optimally less than 2μVRMS over the measurement bandwidth.
Figure 7-8 shows the simplified reference input circuit. Similar to the analog inputs, the reference inputs are
protected by ESD diodes. If the reference inputs are driven below AVSS – 0.3V or above AVDD1 + 0.3V, the
protection diodes can conduct. If these conditions are possible, use external clamp diodes, series resistors, or
both to limit the reference input current to the specified value.

Figure 7-8. Simplified Voltage Reference Input Circuit
The ADC samples the reference voltage by an internal capacitor (CREF) and then discharges the capacitor at the
modulator sampling frequency (fMOD). The sampling operation results in transient current flow into the reference
inputs. The transient current is filtered by a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed directly at the reference pins with a
larger 10μF to 47μF capacitor at the voltage reference output. In applications where the voltage reference drives
multiple ADCs, use 0.1µF capacitors at each ADC.

The external capacitors filter the current transients, resulting in 80μA/V average reference current. With VREF =
2.5V, the reference input current is 80μA / V × 2.5V = 200μA.
7.3.4 IOVDD Power Supply
The IOVDD digital supply operates in two voltage ranges: 1.65V to 1.95V and 2.7V to 3.6V. If operating IOVDD
in the 1.65V to 1.95V range, connect IOVDD directly to the CAPD pin. Figure 7-9 shows the required connection
if IOVDD is operating in the 1.65V to 1.95V range. Otherwise, if operating IOVDD in the 2.7V to 3.6V range, do
not connect these pins together.

7.3.5 Modulator
The modulator is a multibit delta-sigma architecture featuring low power consumption with very low levels of
spurious tones in the output. The modulator shapes the quantization noise of the internal quantizer to an out-ofband frequency range where the noise is removed by the digital filter. Noise remaining within the pass-band
region is thermal, with the characteristic of constant noise density (white noise). The total noise in the ADC
output is determined by the digital filter OSR.
7.3.5.1 Modulator Overdrive
The modulator is an inherently stable design and, therefore exhibits predictable recovery from input overdrive.
If the modulator is overdriven at the peaks of the input signal, the filter output data can clip, but not necessarily
so depending on the duration of the signal overdrive resulting from data averaging of the digital filter. If the
modulator is heavily overdriven, then the likelihood of clipped conversion data in the output increases. Be aware
the group delay of the digital filter delays the time of an input overdrive event to the output data.
7.3.6 Digital Filter
The digital filter decimates and filters the modulator data to provide high-resolution output data. By adjusting
the amount of filtering though the OSR, trade-offs can be made between output data noise and bandwidth.
Increasing the OSR reduces output data noise while decreasing the signal bandwidth.
As shown in Figure 7-10, the sample rate converter (SRC) receives data from the modulator prior to the digital
filter block. See the Sample Rate Converter section for details.

The digital filter consists of three sections: a variable-decimation sinc filter; a variable-coefficient, fixeddecimation FIR filter; and a programmable high-pass filter (IIR). The desired filter sections are selected by
the FILTER[1:0] bits of the CONFIG0 register. The sinc filter provides partially filtered data, bypassing the FIR
and HPF filters and the user calibration stage. For fully filtered data, select the FIR filter option. The IIR filter
stage removes dc and low-frequency data. The FIR and the combined FIR + IIR filter are routed to the user
calibration block and output code clipping block. See the Offset and Gain Calibration section for details of user
calibration.
7.3.6.1 Sinc Filter Section
The first section of the digital filter is a variable-decimation, fifth-order sinc filter (sinx/x). Modulator data are
passed through the sample rate converter to the sinc filter at the nominal rate of fMOD = fCLK / 4 = 1.024MHz.
The sinc filter partially filters the data for the FIR filter that produces the final frequency response. The sinc filter
output data are intended to be used with post-processing filters to shape the final frequency response.
Table 7-3 shows the decimation ratio and the resulting output data rate of the sinc filter. The sinc filter data rate is
programmed by the DR[2:0] bits of the CONFIG0 register.

Figure 7-13 shows the sinc filter frequency response at fDATA = 32kSPS. The tones at 1kHz and harmonics are
the result of dither added to the modulator input to suppress idle tones. The frequency of the dither signal is
fMOD divided by the combined decimation ratio from Table 7-4. The rise of the noise floor at 2kHz is resultant of
modulator noise shaping. For sinc filter decimation N = 32 (data rate = 32kSPS), the usable bandwidth through
the use of external post filtering is 500Hz.

Figure 7-16. FIR Filter Transition Band Response
As with many sampled systems, the filter response repeats at multiples of the modulator sample rate (fMOD). The
filter response repeats at frequencies = N × fMOD ± f0, where N = 1, 2, and so on, and f0 = filter pass-band). If
present in the signal, these frequencies fold back (or alias) into the pass-band, causing errors. A low-pass input
filter at the input removes the out-of-band signal to reduce the aliasing error. For the low-frequency output signal
typical of many geophones, a single-pole filter at the PGA output is sufficient to reduce aliasing of the geophone
thermal noise.
7.3.6.3 Group Delay and Step Response
The FIR filter offers linear and minimum phase filter options. The pass-band, transition band, and stop-band
responses of the linear and minimum phase filters are the same but differ in phase and step response behavior.
7.3.6.3.1 Linear Phase Response
A linear phase filter has the unique property that the delay from input to output is constant across all input
frequencies (that is, constant group delay). The constant delay property is independent of the nature of the input
signal (impulse or swept-tone), and therefore the phase is linear across frequency, which can be important when
analyzing multitone signals. However, as shown in Figure 7-17, the group delay is longer for the linear phase
filter compared to minimum phase. For both the linear and minimum filters, fully settled data are available 62
conversions after a step input change occurs.

7.3.6.3.2 Minimum Phase Response
The minimum phase filter provides a short group delay for data from filter input to filter output. Figure 7-18 shows
the group delay for minimum and linear phase filters. The group delay of the minimum phase filter is a function of
signal frequency. The PHASE bit of the CONFIG0 register programs the filter phase.

7.3.6.4 HPF Stage
The last stage of the digital filter is the high-pass filter (HPF). The high-pass filter is implemented as a firstorder IIR filter. The high-pass filter removes dc and low frequencies from the data. The HPF is enabled by
programming the FILTR[1:0] bits = 11b of the CONFIG0 register.
Equation 4 shows the z-domain transfer function of the filter:

the HPF1, HPF0 registers is value a, computed by Equation 4, × 216.

SBASAW0 – FEBRUARY 2024
The HPF accumulates data to perform the high-pass function. Similar to the operation of an analog HPF after a
dc step change is applied to the input, the filter takes time to accumulate data to remove dc from the signal. The
lower the corner frequency, the longer the filter takes to settle.
To shorten the HPF settling time, the offset register is used as a seed value for the HPF accumulator. The
accumulator is loaded with the offset register each time the HPF state is changed from disabled to enabled. The
offset register can be preset with an estimated value, or a calibrated value if the dc level is known. To improve
accuracy, scale the offset value by the inverse value of GAIN[3:0] / 400000h. The normal offset operation is
disabled when the HPF is enabled.
To initialize the HPF accumulator with the OFFSET[2:0] registers:
1. Disable the HPF.
2. Write the desired value to the OFFSET[2:0] registers.
3. Enable the HPF. OFFSET[2:0] is loaded to the HPF data accumulator.
4. The HPF tracks the remaining dc value from the signal.
Subsequent writes to the OFFSET[2:0] registers are ignored. To reload the contents of the OFFSET[2:0]
registers to the HPF, disable and re-enable the HPF.
7.3.7 Clock Input
A clock signal is required for operation. The clock signal is applied to the CLK pin at 4.096MHz. As with many
precision data converters, a low-jitter clock is required to achieve data sheet performance. Avoid the use of R-C
clock oscillators. A crystal-based clock source is recommended. Avoid ringing on the clock signal by placing a
series resistor in the clock PCB trace to source-terminate. Keep the clock signal routed away from other clock
signals, input pins, and analog components.
7.3.8 GPIO
The ADC provides two general-purpose I/O (GPIO) pins that can be used as digital inputs or outputs. The GPIO
voltage levels are IOVDD and DGND. Figure 7-19 illustrates the GPIO block diagram.
The GPIOs are programmed by the GPIO register. The GPIOs are programmed as an input or output by the
GPIOx_DIR bits. The GPIO state is read or written by the GPIOx_DAT bits. When programmed as an output,
reading the GPIOx_DAT bits returns the register bit value previously written. If the GPIOs are unused, terminate
the GPIOs with pulldown resistors to prevent the pins from floating.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Power-Down Mode
Power-down is engaged by taking the PWDN pin low, or by software control, by sending the STANDBY
command. To exit power-down, take PWDN high or send the WAKEUP command to exit software power-down
(with the clock running). Power-down disables the analog circuit; however, the digital LDO (CAPD pin) remains
biased, drawing a small bias current from IOVDD. In comparison, software power-down draws larger IOVDD
bias current. In both power-down modes, the ac signals of the digital outputs are stopped but remain driven
high or low. The digital inputs must not be allowed to float; otherwise, leakage current can flow from the
IOVDD supply. Reset the ADC if the clock is interrupted in power-down. Synchronization is lost in power-down;
therefore, resynchronize the ADC.
7.4.2 Reset
The ADC is reset by three methods: power-on reset (POR), the RESET pin, or the RESET command. Power-on
reset occurs when the power-supply voltages cross the respective thresholds. See the Power-Up Switching
Characteristics for details. To reset the ADC by pin, drive RESET low for at least two fCLK cycles and return high
for reset. By command, reset takes effect on the next rising fCLK edge after the eighth rising edge of SCLK of
the reset command. At reset, the filter is restarted and the user registers are reset to default. Reset timing is
illustrated in Figure 5-5.
7.4.3 Synchronization
The ADC is synchronized by the SYNC pin or by the SYNC command, resulting in restart of the digital filter
cycle. Synchronization by the pin occurs on the next rising edge of CLK after SYNC is taken high on the falling
edge of CLK. Synchronization by the SYNC command occurs on the rising edge of CLK following the eighth bit
of the command.
The following results in loss of synchronization:

– SYNC (synchronization mode)
– SRC[1:0] (sample rate converter enabled or disabled)
There are two synchronization control modes: pulse sync and continuous sync. The synchronization mode is
programmed by the SYNC bit of the ID/SYNC register.
7.4.3.1 Pulse-Sync Mode
Pulse-sync mode unconditionally synchronizes the ADC on the rising edge of SYNC. When synchronized, the
internal filter memory is reset, DRDY goes high, and the filter cycle restarts. The following 63 DRDY periods are
disabled to allow for digital filter settling. DRDY asserts low when the conversion data are ready. See Figure 5-4
for synchronization timing details.
7.4.3.2 Continuous-Sync Mode
Continuous-sync mode offers the option of accepting a continuous clock signal on the SYNC pin. The ADC
compares the period of the SYNC clock signal to N periods of the DRDY signal to qualify resynchronization.
Initially, the first SYNC positive edge synchronizes the ADC. Resynchronization occurs only when the time
period between rising edges of SYNC over N multiple DRDY periods differ by at least ± one fCLK cycle, where
N = 1, 2, 3, and so on. Otherwise, the SYNC clock period is in synchronization with the existing DRDY pulses,
so no resynchronization occurs. Be aware the continuous sync mode cannot be used when the sample rate
converter is enabled.
After synchronization, DRDY continues to pulse; however, data are held low for 63 data periods to allow for the
digital filter to settle. See Figure 5-4 for the DRDY behavior. Because of the initial delay of the digital filter, the
SYNC input signal and the DRDY pulses exhibit an offset time. The offset time is a function of the data rate.
7.4.4 Sample Rate Converter
The sample rate converter (SRC) compensates clock frequency error by resampling the modulator data at a
new rate set by a compensation factor written to the SRC registers. The compensation range is ±244ppm with
7.45ppb (1 / 227) resolution.
Clock frequency error is compensated by writing a value to the SCR0 and SRC1 registers. The register value is
in two's-complement format for positive and negative error compensation. Positive register data values decrease
the data rate frequency (increases the period). The compensated data rate frequency is observed by the
frequency of the DRDY signal.
Table 7-7 shows example values of SRC compensation. 8000h disables the sample rate converter. 0000h
passes the data through with no compensation but adds an 8 / fCLK delay to the existing time delay of SYNC
input to the DRDY pulses.

Resynchronize the ADC after the sample rate converter is enabled or disabled.
Because the SRC is a digital function, operation is deterministic without error. When the target compensation
value is determined, the value can be immediately written to the ADC, or incrementally written up to the
determined value to reduce the effect of step changes in the output frequency. Because two bytes are used for
the SRC registers, use the multibyte command operation to write to the SRC registers and complete the write
operation 256 CLK cycles before the DRDY falling edge. This procedure simultaneously loads the high and low
bytes for compensation. See Figure 5-7 for details.

7.4.5 Offset and Gain Calibration
The ADC integrates calibration registers to correct offset and gain errors. As shown in Equation 6 and Figure
7-20, the 24-bit offset value (OFFSET[23:0]) is subtracted from the filter data before multiplication by the 24-bit
gain value (GAIN[23:0]), divided by 400000h. The data are clipped to 32 bits to yield the final output. The offset
operation is bypassed when the high-pass filter is enabled.

7.4.5.1 OFFSET Register
Offset correction is by a 24-bit word consisting of three 8-bit registers (high address is the MSB). The offset
value is left-justified to align to the 32-bit data. The offset value is two's-complement coding with a maximum
positive value of 7FFFFFh and a maximum negative value of 800000h. As given in Table 7-8, OFFSET is
subtracted from the conversion data. Offset error is corrected by the offset calibration command with the
input-short multiplexer option, or by collecting shorted-input ADC data and writing the value to the registers.
Although the offset correction range is from –FS to +FS, the sum of offset and gain correction must not exceed
106% of the uncalibrated range.
When the high-pass filter is enabled, offset correction is disabled. The offset value is used instead as a starting
value to shorten the high-pass filter settling time. To reload the offset value to the HPF, disable and re-enable the
high-pass filter. See the HPF Stage section for more details.

7.4.5.2 GAIN Register
Gain correction is through a 24-bit word, consisting of three 8-bit registers (high address = MSB). The gain value
is 24 bits, coded in straight binary and normalized to 1.0 for GAIN[23:0] equal to 400000h. With a calibration
signal applied, gain error is calibrated by either the gain calibration command, or by collecting ADC data and
writing a computed value to the gain registers. Table 7-9 lists examples of the GAIN[23:0] register values.
Although the range of gain values can be much greater or less than 1, the sum of offset and gain correction must
not exceed 106% of the uncalibrated range.

7.4.5.3 Calibration Procedure
ADC calibration is performed by ADC calibration commands or manual calibration. The calibration procedure is
as follows:
1. Select the PGA or buffer operation, input channel, and PGA gain condition for calibration.
2. Preset the OFFSET register = 000000h and the GAIN register = 400000h.
3. Disable the high-pass filter for offset calibration. Short the inputs to the system, or use the input MUX to
provide the input short. A system-level input short yields more accurate calibration. After the input settles,
either send the OFSCAL command or perform a manual calibration.
a. OFSCAL command. After the command is sent, DRDY is driven low 81 conversion periods later to
indicate calibration is complete. The OFFSET register is updated with the new calibration value. As
shown in Figure 7-21, the first data output uses the new OFFSET value.
b. Manual calibration. Wait at least 64 conversions for the digital filter to settle then average a number of
data points to improve calibration accuracy. Write the value to the 24-bit OFFSET register.
4. Apply a gain calibration voltage. After the input settles, either send the GANCAL command or perform a
manual calibration.
a. GANCAL command. Apply a positive dc full-scale calibration voltage. After the command is sent, DRDY
is driven low 81 conversion periods later to indicate calibration is complete. The ADC calculates GAIN
such that the full-scale code is equal to the applied calibration signal. As shown in Figure 7-21, the first
data output uses the new GAIN value.
b. Manual calibration. Apply an ac signal coherent to the sample rate or dc calibration signal that are
slightly below full-scale (for example, 2.4V for gain = 1). Using a calibration signal less than the full-scale
range prevents clipped output codes that otherwise lead to incorrect calibration. Wait 64 conversions
for the digital filter to settle then average a number of data points to improve calibration accuracy. For
ac-signal calibration, use a number of coherent signal periods to compute the RMS value.
Equation 7 computes the value of GAIN for manual calibration.

7.5.1 Serial Interface
Conversion data are read and ADC configuration is made through the SPI-compatible serial interface. The
interface consists of four signals: CS, SCLK, DIN, and DOUT. DRDY asserts low when conversion data are
ready. The serial interface is passive (peripheral mode), where the serial clock (SCLK) is an input. The ADC
operates in SPI mode 0, where CPOL = 0 and CPHA = 0. In mode 0, SCLK idles low and data are updated on
the SCLK falling edges and are read on the SCLK rising edges.

SBASAW0 – FEBRUARY 2024
7.5.1.1 Chip Select (CS)
CS is an active-low input that selects the serial interface for communication. A communication frame is started
by taking CS low and is ended by taking CS high. Because only one command per frame is permitted, toggle CS
between commands. Taking CS high before the command is completed resets the operation and blocks further
SCLK inputs. CS high forces DOUT to a high-impedance state. DRDY remains active regardless of the state of
CS.
7.5.1.2 Serial Clock (SCLK)
SCLK is the serial clock input that shifts data into and out of the ADC. The ADC latches DIN data on the rising
edge of SCLK. DOUT data are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK. Keep SCLK low when not active. The
SCLK pin is a Schmidt-trigger input that reduces sensitivity to SCLK noise. However, keep the SCLK signal as
noise free as possible to prevent inadvertent shifting of the data.
7.5.1.3 Data Input (DIN)
DIN inputs data to the ADC. DIN data are latched on the rising edge of SCLK.
7.5.1.4 Data Output (DOUT)
DOUT is the data output pin. Data are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK and are latched by the host on
the rising edge. Because the conversion data MSB is on DOUT when CS is driven low (DRDY low), the MSB of
the data is read on the first rising edge of SCLK. Minimize trace length to reduce load capacitance on the pin.
Place a series termination resistor close to the pin to terminate the PCB trace impedance. Taking CS high forces
DOUT to a high-impedance state.
7.5.1.5 Data Ready (DRDY)
DRDY is an active-low output that indicates conversion data are ready. DRDY is active regardless of the state of
CS. DRDY is driven high on the first falling edge of SCLK, regardless if data are being read or if a command is
input. As shown in Figure 7-22, if data are not retrieved, DRDY pulses high for eight fCLK periods.

7.5.2 Conversion Data Format
As listed in Table 7-10, the conversion data are coded in 32-bit, two's-complement format to represent positive
and negative numbers. If desired, the data read operation can be shortened to 24 bits by taking CS high. In sinc
filter mode, data are scaled by half compared to the FIR filter mode.

Excluding the effects of reference voltage error, noise, linearity, offset, and gain errors.
Because of the low values of OSR, full 32-bit resolution is not available in sinc filter mode. When the input signal is overdriven, the sinc
filter continues to output code values beyond the nominal full-scale values until clipped when the modulator saturates.

7.5.3.2 WAKEUP: Wake Command
The WAKEUP command exits standby mode to resume normal operation. If the ADC is already powered, the
command is no operation (NOP). When exiting standby mode, the ADC requires resynchronization. See the
Power-Down Mode section for details of power-down mode.
7.5.3.3 STANDBY: Software Power-Down Command
The STANDBY command enters the software power-down mode. The ADC exits software power-down mode by
the WAKEUP command. See the Power-Down Mode section for details of power-down mode.
7.5.3.4 SYNC: Synchronize Command
The SYNC command synchronizes the ADC. Synchronization occurs at the eighth bit of the SYNC command
byte. When synchronized, the current conversion is stopped and restarted. To synchronize multiple ADCs by
software command, send the command simultaneously to all devices. The SYNC pin must be high when using
the command. See the Synchronization section for details of synchronization.
7.5.3.5 RESET: Reset Command
The RESET command resets the ADC. See the Reset section for details of the reset operation.

7.5.3.6 Read Data Direct
There are two methods to read conversion data: read data direct and read data by command.
Read data direct does not require a command, instead after DRDY falls low, simply apply SCLK to read the data.
Figure 7-24 shows the read data direct operation. When DRDY falls low, take CS low to start the read operation.
CS low causes DOUT to transition from tri-state mode to the output of the data MSB. Data are read on the rising
edge of SCLK and updated on the falling edge of SCLK. DRDY returns high on the first falling edge of SCLK.
DOUT is low after 32 data bits are read. To read the same data again before new data are available, use the
RDATA command.
Keep DIN low when reading conversion data. If the RDATA (read conversion data) or RREG (read register data)
command is sent, output data are interrupted in response to the command. If DRDY falls low during the read
operation, the new data are lost unless a minimum of three bytes of the old data are read.

7.5.3.7 RDATA: Read Conversion Data Command
The RDATA command (Figure 7-25) is useful to re-read data within the same conversion period or to read data
interrupted by a read register command. In both cases, DRDY is high because DRDY is driven high on the first
SCLK of the previous operation. If DRDY is high, the first output byte is zero followed by data. If low, the first
output byte is byte 1 of the conversion data, which is restarted for output byte 2.

Collectively, the registers contain all the information needed to configure the device (such as data rate, filter
mode, specific reference voltage, and so on). The registers are accessed by the read and write commands
(RREG and WREG). Registers can be accessed individually, or accessed in multiples given by the number of
registers specified in the command field.
Changes made to certain register bits result in a filter reset, thus requiring resynchronization of the ADC. See the

Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification,
and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for
determining suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The ADS1288 is a high-resolution ADC designed for low-power seismic data acquisition equipment. Optimizing
performance requires special attention to the support circuitry and printed-circuit board (PCB) layout. As much
as possible, locate noisy circuit components (such as microcontrollers, oscillators, switching regulators, and so
forth) away from the ADC input circuit components, reference voltage, and the clock signal.

SBASAW0 – FEBRUARY 2024
9.2.1 Design Requirements
Figure 9-1 depicts a typical application of a geophone input circuit. The application shows the ADC operating
with a 5V power supply and a 2.5V level-shift voltage applied to the ADC inputs. The goal of this evaluation is to
analyze the effect of noise resulting from source resistance. The source resistance is the sum of the series input
resistors and the geophone output resistance.
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
Referring to Figure 9-1, Schottky diodes (BAS70 or equivalent) protect the ADC inputs from voltage overloads.
The ADC inputs are protected from ESD events by the optional ESD protection diodes (TVS0701). The
geophone signal is level-shifted to mid-supply by driving the input termination resistors (R1 and R2) common
point to 2.5V. The level-shift voltage is derived from the reference voltage and is buffered by the OPA391 op
amp. The input termination resistors also provide the input bias current return path for the ADC inputs.
The input signal is filtered to reduce out-of-band noise. The filter is comprised of common-mode and differential
sections. The common-mode section filters noise common to both inputs, consisting of R3, R4, C1, and C2. The
differential section filters differential noise, consisting of R3 through R6 and C3. The resistor values are kept low
to reduce thermal noise.
The REF6225 provides the 2.5V reference voltage.
The AVDD1 power-supply voltage is shown at 5V, with AVSS connected to AGND. The AVDD2 voltage is also
5V to simplify the power-supply requirements. IOVDD is shown at 3.3V. If IOVDD = 1.8V, connect the CAPD pin
(pin 19) to IOVDD.
Besides the power-supply pins, place additional capacitors at certain pins. Capacitors are required between
CAPP – CAPN, REFP – REFN, and at the CAPBP, CAPBN, CAPI, CAPR, CAPC, and CAPD pins with the
capacitance values given in Figure 9-1. The CAPP – CAPN, CAPBP, and CAPBN capacitors are C0G type.
The DAC1282 provides a low-distortion signal to test THD performance, and through the DAC1282 dc test
mode, test geophone impulse response. Increase the value of the DAC1282 capacitors CAPP and CAPN to
10nF to optimize the ADS1288 THD test performance. See the DAC1282 data sheet for additional circuit details.
9.2.3 Application Curves
Table 9-1 lists the effect of geophone source resistance (RS) and the effect of input current noise to total noise
performance. Geophone RS = 1000Ω, 5000Ω, and two values of input current noise taken from the input current
noise distribution of Figure 9-2. Input current noise values = 1.5pA/√Hz and 3pA/√Hz are evaluated. Geophone
RS thermal noise, current noise × RS, and ADC input-referred noise are summed to derive total noise.

The analysis data is over a 206Hz noise bandwidth (fDATA = 500SPS). The data shows the greatest of the total
noise increase compared to ADC noise alone is with 5000Ω geophone source resistance, PGA gain = 16, and
in = 3pA/√Hz. The 1000Ω geophone source resistance shows an insignificant noise increase under the same
condition.
9.3 Power Supply Recommendations
The ADC has four power supplies: AVDD1, AVDD2, AVSS, and IOVDD. Among the power-supply options, the
number of power supplies can be reduced to a single 3.3V supply used for AVDD1, AVDD2, and IOVDD, with
AVSS connected to ground. Be aware that 3.3V operation requires using the buffer for gain = 1.
The power supplies can be sequenced in any order. The ADC is held in reset until the power supplies have
crossed the retrospective power-on voltage thresholds and the clock signal is applied (see Figure 5-8 for details
of the voltage thresholds).
9.3.1 Analog Power Supplies
The ADC has three analog power supplies, AVDD1, AVDD2, and AVSS, all of which must be well regulated
and free from switching power-supply noise (voltage ripple < 1mV). The AVDD1 power-supply voltage is relative
to AVSS and powers the PGA and buffer. AVSS is the negative power supply. The ADC can be configured
for single-supply operation with AVDD1 = 5V or 3.3V with AVSS connected to ground. Because the minimum
voltage of AVDD1 to AGND = 2.375V, dual-supply operation is only possible when AVDD1 – AVSS = ±2.5V.
Single-power supply operation requires a level-shift voltage at the geophone input through the input termination
resistors. The level-shift voltage is typically equal to AVDD1 / 2. Bypass AVDD1 with 1μF and 0.1μF parallel
capacitors to AVSS.
The AVDD2 power-supply powers the modulator. To simplify system power management, AVDD2 can be
connected to AVDD1, regardless whether AVDD1 and AVSS are configured for single- or dual-supply operation
(AVDD2 voltage range is 2.375V to 5.25V with respect to AGND). Bypass AVDD2 with 1μF and 0.1μF parallel
capacitors to AGND.
9.3.2 Digital Power Supply
IOVDD is the digital power supply. IOVDD is the digital pin I/O voltage and also powers the digital core by a
1.8V low-dropout regulator (LDO). The LDO output is the CAPD pin and is bypassed with a 0.22µF capacitor
to DGND. Do not externally load the CAPD voltage output. Bypass the IOVDD pin with 1μF and 0.1μF parallel
capacitors to DGND.
If IOVDD is in the range of 1.65V to 1.95V, tie the IOVDD and CAPD pins together. This connection forces the
internal LDO off, thereby the IOVDD voltage now directly powers the digital core. Pay close attention to the
absolute maximum voltage rating of IOVDD driving the CAPD pin to avoid damaging the device.
9.3.3 Grounds
The ADC has two ground pins, AGND and DGND. Connect the AGND and DGND pins together at the ADC to a
single ground plane using short direct connections.

9.3.4 Thermal Pad
The thermal pad does not carry device current but must be soldered and connected to the most negative
power-supply voltage (AVSS). Because of the low power dissipation, PCB thermal vias can be omitted to provide
space for bottom layer components under the device.
9.4 Layout
9.4.1 Layout Guidelines
Figure 9-3 shows the layout of the geophone input application example of Figure 9-1. In most cases, a single
unbroken ground plane connecting the grounds of the analog and digital components is preferred. A four-layer
PCB is used, with the inner layers dedicated for ground and power-supply planes. Low resistance power-supply
planes are necessary to maintain THD performance.
Connect the REFN pin of the ADC directly to the ground terminal of the voltage reference to avoid ground noise
coupling. Similarly, avoid ground noise between the tie-points of termination resistors R1 and R2 by connecting
the resistors together first, then connect to ground (dual-supply operation).
Place the smaller of the parallel power-supply bypass capacitors closest to the device supply pins. The thermal
pad of the package connects to the most negative power-supply voltage (AVSS). Figure 9-3 shows single-supply
operation, with AVSS tied to AGND. In this case, the thermal pad connects to AGND. For dual-supply operation,
connect the thermal pad to AVSS.
