The ADS7819 will begin tracking the input signal at the end of the conversion. Allowing 1.25µs between convert commands assures accurate acquisition of a new signal. STARTING A CONVERSION The combination of CS (pin 24) and R/C (pin 23) LOW for a minimum of 40ns puts the sample/hold of the ADS7819 in the hold state and starts a conversion. BUSY (pin 25) will go LOW and stay LOW until the conversion is completed and the internal output register has been updated. All new convert commands during BUSY LOW will be ignored. 2 The ADS7819 will begin tracking the input signal at the end of the conversion. Allowing 1.25µs between convert commands assures accurate acquisition of a new signal. Refer to Table I for a summary of CS, R/C, and BUSY states and Figures 2 and 3 for timing parameters.

Basic Operation ® 7 ADS7819 CS and R/C are internally OR’d and level triggered. There is not a requirement which input goes LOW first when initiating a conversion. If it is critical that CS or R/C initiate the conversion, be sure the less critical input is LOW at least 10ns prior to the initiating input. To reduce the number of control pins, CS can be tied LOW using R/C to control the read and convert modes. Note that the parallel output will be active whenever R/C is HIGH and no conversion is in progress. See the Reading Data section and refer to Table I for control line functions for ‘read’ and ‘convert’ modes. The nominal input impedance of 3.125kΩ results from the combination of the internal resistor network shown on the front page of the product data sheet and the external 50Ω resistor. The input resistor divider network provides inherent over-voltage protection guaranteed to at least ±25V. The 50Ω, 1% resistor does not compromise the accuracy or drift of the converter. It has little influence relative to the internal resistors, and tighter tolerances are not required. Note: The values shown for the internal resistors are for reference only. The exact values can vary by ±30%. This is true of all resistors internal to the ADS7819. Each resistive divider is trimmed so that the proper division is achieved. NOTE: (1) Full scale error includes offset and gain errors and is measured at both +FS and –FS. READING DATA The ADS7819 outputs full parallel data in Binary Two’s Complement data format. The parallel output will be active when R/C (pin 23) is HIGH, CS (pin 24) is LOW, and no conversion is in progress. Any other combination will tri-state the parallel output. Valid conversion data can be read in a full parallel, 12-bit word on D11-D0 (pins 6-13 and 15-18). Refer to Table II for ideal output codes. After the conversion is completed and the output registers have been updated, BUSY (pin 25) will go HIGH. Valid data from the most recent conversion will be available on D11-D0 (pins 6-13 and 15-18). BUSY going HIGH can be used to latch the data. Refer to Table III and Figures 2 and 3. Note: For best performance, the external data bus connected to D11-D0 should not be active during a conversion. The switching noise of the external asynchronous data signals can cause digital feed through degrading the converter’s performance. The number of control lines can be reduced by tieing CS LOW while using R/C to initiate conversions and activate the output mode of the converter. See Figure 2.

This external resistor makes it possible to trim the offset ±12mV using a trim pot or trim DAC. This resistor may be left out if the offset and gain errors will be corrected in software or if they are negligible in regards to the particular application.

Circuit Diagram Without External Hardware Trim. ® 9 ADS7819 CALIBRATION The ADS7819 can be trimmed in hardware or software. The offset should be trimmed before the gain since the offset directly affects the gain. Hardware Calibration To calibrate the offset and gain of the ADS7819, install the proper resistors and potentiometers as shown in Figure 4a. The calibration range is ±12mV for bipolar zero and ±30mV for full scale. Potentiometer P1 and resistor R1 form the offset adjust circuit and P2 and R2 the gain adjust circuit. The exact values are not critical. R1 and R2 should not be made any larger than the value shown. They can easily be made smaller to provide increased adjustment range. Reducing these below 15% of the indicated values could begin to adversely affect the operation of the converter. P1 and P2 can also be made larger to reduce power dissipation. However, larger resistances will push the useful adjustment range to the edges of the potentiometer. P1 should probably not exceed 20kΩ and P2 100kΩ in order to maintain reasonable sensitivity. Software Calibration To calibrate the offset and gain of the ADS7819, no external resistors are required. See the No Calibration section for details on the effects of the external resistor. No Calibration See Figure 4b for circuit connections. Note that the actual voltage dropped across the 50Ω resistor is nearly two orders of magnitude lower than the voltage dropped across the internal resistor divider network. This should be taken into consideration when choosing the accuracy and drift specifications of the external resistors. In most applications, 1% metal-film resistors will be sufficient. The external 50Ω resistor shown in Figure 4b may not be necessary in some applications. This resistor provides trim capability for the offset and compensates for a slight gain adjustment internal to the ADS7819. Not using the 50Ω resistor will cause a small gain error but will have no effect on the inherent offset error. Figure 5 shows typical transfer function characteristics with and without the 50Ω resistor in the circuit. REFERENCE The ADS7819 can operate with its internal 2.5V reference or an external reference. By applying an external reference to pin 3, the internal reference can be bypassed. The reference voltage at REF is buffered internally and output on CAP (pin 4). The internal reference has a 6 ppm/°C drift (typical) and accounts for approximately 20% of the full scale error (FSE = ±0.5% for low grade, ±0.25% for high grade.) REF REF (pin 3) is an input for an external reference or the output for the internal 2.5V reference. A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected as close to the REF pin as possible. The capacitor and the output resistance of REF create a low pass filter to band limit noise on the reference. Using a smaller value capacitor will introduce more noise to the reference degrading the SNR and SINAD. The REF pin should not be used to drive external AC or DC loads. The range for the external reference is 2.3V to 2.7V and determines the actual LSB size. Increasing the reference voltage will increase the full scale range and the LSB size of the converter which can improve the SNR.

Circuit Diagram With and Without External Resistors. ® ADS7819 10 CAP CAP (pin 4) is the output of the internal reference buffer. A 10µF tantalum capacitor should be placed as close to the CAP as possible to provide optimum switching currents for the CDAC throughout the conversion cycle and compensation for the output of the buffer. Using a capacitor any smaller than 1µF can cause the output buffer to oscillate and may not have sufficient charge for the CDAC. Capacitor values larger than 10µF will have little effect on improving performance. The voltage on the CAP pin is approximately 2V when using the internal reference, or 80% of an externally supplied reference. other CMOS A/D converters, releases 5%—10% of the charge. There is also a resistive front end which attenuates any charge which is released. The end result is a minimal requirement for the op amp on the front end. Any op amp sufficient for the signal in an application will be sufficient to the drive the ADS7819. The resistive front end of the ADS7819 also provides a guaranteed ±25V over voltage protection. In most cases, this eliminates the need for external input protection circuitry. INTERMEDIATE LATCHES The ADS7819 does have tri-state outputs for the parallel 2 port, but intermediate latches should be used if the bus will be active during conversions. If the bus is not active during conversions, the tri-state outputs can be used to isolate the A/D from other peripherals on the same bus. Intermediate latches are beneficial on any monolithic A/D converter. The ADS7819 has an internal LSB size of 610µV. Transients from fast switching signals on the parallel port, even when the A/D is tri-stated, can be coupled through the substrate to the analog circuitry causing degradation of converter performance. LAYOUT POWER The ADS7819 uses the majority of its power for analog and static circuitry, and it should be considered as an analog component. For optimum performance, tie the analog and digital +5V power pins to the same +5V power supply and tie the analog and digital grounds together. For best performance, the ±5V supplies can be produced from whatever analog supply is used for the rest of the analog signal conditioning. If ±12V or ±15V supplies are present, simple regulators can be used. The +5V power for the A/D should be separate from the +5V used for the system’s digital logic. Connecting +VDIG (pin 27) directly to a digital supply can reduce converter performance due to switching noise from the digital logic. Although it is not suggested, if the digital supply must be used to power the converter, be sure to properly filter the supply. Either using a filtered digital supply or a regulated analog supply, both VDIG and VANA should be tied to the same +5V source. GROUNDING Three ground pins are present on the ADS7819. DGND (pin 22) is the digital supply ground. AGND2 (pin 5) is the analog supply ground. AGND1 (pin 2) is the ground which all analog signals internal to the A/D are referenced. AGND1 is more susceptible to current induced voltage drops and must have the path of least resistance back to the power supply. All the ground pins of the ADS should be tied to the analog ground plane, separated from the system’s digital logic ground, to achieve optimum performance. Both analog and digital ground planes should be tied to the “system” ground as near to the power supplies as possible. This helps to prevent dynamic digital ground currents from modulating the analog ground through a common impedance to power ground. SIGNAL CONDITIONING The FET switches used for the sample hold on many CMOS A/D converters release a significant amount of charge injection which can cause the driving op amp to oscillate.
