FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
The ADS7945/6 are 14-bit, 2 MSPS analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs), with differential and single-ended
inputs, respectively. The devices operate at a 2
MSPS sample rate with a standard 16-clock data
frame. The devices feature both outstanding dc
precision and excellent dynamic performance; the
ADS7946 is pin-compatible with the 8/10/12-bit
ADS7947/8/9 devices. The devices include a
two-channel input multiplexer and a low-power
successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with
an inherent sample-and-hold (S/H) input stage.

The ADS7945/6 support a wide analog supply range
that allows the full-scale input range to extend to ±5 V
differential or 5 V single-ended. A simple SPI™, with
a digital supply that can operate as low as 1.65 V,
allows for easy interfacing to a wide variety of digital
controllers. Automatic power-down can be enabled
when operating at slower speeds to dramatically
reduce power consumption.
Offered in a tiny 3 mm × 3 mm QFN package, the
ADS7945/6 are fully specified over the extended
temperature range of –40°C to +125°C and are
suitable for a wide variety of data acquisition
applications where high performance, low power, and
small package size are key.

OVERVIEW
The ADS7945 and ADS7946 are 14-bit, miniature, dual-channel, low-power SAR ADCs. The ADS7945 is a
differential input device and the ADS7946 is a single-ended device with ground sensing input. These devices
feature very low power consumption at rated speed. The PDEN pin enables an auto power-down mode that
further reduces power consumption at lower speeds.
MULTIPLEXER AND ADC INPUT
The ADS7945/46 devices feature differential/single-ended inputs respectively with a double-pole, double-throw
multiplexer. The analog input circuit shown in Figure 75 is similar for for ADS7945 and ADS7946.
The ADS7945 features a differential input. Each of the positive (AINxP) and negative (AINxN) inputs can swing
from –VREF/2 to +VREF/2 around the common-mode voltage (AINxP + AINxN)/2 so that AINxP and AINxN swing
in opposite directions equally from common-mode voltage (differential input swing VAINxP – VAINxN ranges
from –VREF to +VREF). The ADC converts the difference in voltage: VAINxP – VAINxN. This feature allows the
devices to reject the common-mode noise in the input signal.
For the ADS7946, the ground sense inputs (AINxGND) can accept swings of ±0.2 V whereas the inputs (AINx)
allow signals in the range of 0 V to VREF over the ground sense input. The ADC converts the difference in
voltage: VAINx – VAINxGND. This feature can be used in multiple ways. For example, two signals can be connected
from different sensors with unequal ground potentials (within ±0.2 V) to a single ADC. The ADC rejects the
common-mode offset and noise. This feature also allows the use of a single-supply op amp. The signal and the
AINxGND input can be offset by +0.2 V, which provides the ground clearance required for a single-supply op
amp.
Figure 75 shows the electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes to supply and ground at every analog input. Make sure
that these diodes do not turn on by keeping the supply voltage within the specified input range.

Figure 76 shows an equivalent circuit of the multiplexer and ADC sampling stage. See the Application
Information section for details on the driving circuit. The positive and negative/ground sense inputs are
separately sampled on 32 pF sampling capacitors. The multiplexer and sampling switches are represented by an
ideal switch in series with a 12 Ω resistance. Note that this is dc resistance and can be used for step-settling
calculations (do not use the RC values shown in Figure 76 for 3 dB bandwidth calculations for undersampling
applications). During sampling, the devices connect the 32 pF sampling capacitor to the ADC driver. This
connection creates a glitch at the device input. It is recommended to connect a capacitor across the AINxP and
AINxN terminals or AINx and AINxGND terminals to reduce this glitch for the ADS7945 or ADS7946,
respectively. A driving circuit must have sufficient bandwidth to settle this glitch within the acquisition time.

Figure 76. Input Sampling Stage Equivalent Circuit
Figure 77 shows a timing diagram for the ADC analog input channel selection. As shown in Figure 77, the CH
SEL signal selects the analog input channel to the ADC. CH SEL = 0 selects channel 0 and CH SEL = 1 selects
channel 1. It is recommended not to toggle the CH SEL signal during an ADC acquisition phase until the device
sees the first valid SCLK rising edge after the device samples the analog input. If CH SEL is toggled during this
period, it can cause erroneous output code because the device might see unsettled analog input.
CH SEL can be toggled at any time during the window specified in Figure 77; however, it is recommended to
select the desired channel after the first SCLK rising edge and before the second SCLK rising edge. This timing
ensures that the multiplexer output is settled before the ADC starts acquisition of the analog input.

REFERENCE
The ADS7945/6 use an external reference voltage during the conversion of a sampled signal. The devices switch
the capacitors used in the conversion process to the reference terminal during conversion. The switching
frequency is the same as the SCLK frequency. It is necessary to decouple the REF terminal to REFGND with a 1
µF ceramic capacitor in order to get the best noise performance from the device. The capacitor must be placed
closest to these pins. The reference input can be driven with the REF50xx series precision references from TI.
Figure 78 shows a typical reference driving circuit.
Sometimes it is convenient to use AVDD as a reference. The ADS7945/6 allow reference ranges up to AVDD.
However, make sure that AVDD is well-bypassed and that there is a separate bypass capacitor between REF
and REFGND.

REF5030 for a 3 V reference, and the REF5025 for a 2.5 V reference. Ensure that (AVDD – REF) > 0.2 V so that the REF50xx functions
properly.
Figure 78. Typical Reference Driving Circuit
CLOCK
The ADS7945/6 use SCLK for conversions (typically 40 MHz). A lower frequency SCLK can be used for
applications that require sample rates less than 2 MSPS. However, it is better to use a 40 MHz SCLK and slow
down the device speed by choosing a lower frequency for CS, which allows more acquisition time. This
configuration relaxes constraints on the output impedance of the driving circuit. Refer to the Application
Information section for calculation of the driving circuit output impedance.

ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION
The ADS7945 is a differential input device and the ADS7946 is a single-ended input device. This section
describes the transfer characteristics for both devices.
The ADS7945 output is in twos compliment format. Figure 79 shows the ideal transfer characteristics for these
devices. Here, full-scale range for the ADC input (AINxP – AINxN) is equal to twice the reference input voltage to
the ADC 2 × (VREF). 1 LSB is equal to 2 × (VREF/2N), where N is the resolution of the ADC (N = 14 for the
ADS7945). The differential input of the ADC is bipolar around the common-mode voltage (AINxP + AINxN)/2 and
has a range of positive FSR (+VREF) to negative FSR (–VREF).

DEVICE OPERATION
The ADS7945/6 operate with either a 16-clock frame or 32-clock frame for ease of interfacing with the host
processor.
16-CLOCK FRAME
Figure 81 shows the devices operating in 16-clock mode. This mode is the fastest mode for device operation. In
this mode, the devices output data from previous conversions while converting the recently sampled signal.
As shown in Figure 81, the ADS7945/6 start acquisition of the analog input from the 16th falling edge of SCLK.
The device samples the input signal on the CS falling edge. SDO comes out of 3-state and the device outputs
the MSB on the CS falling edge. The device outputs the next lower SDO bits on every SCLK falling edge after it
has first seen the SCLK rising edge. The data correspond to the sample and conversion completed in the
previous frame. During a CS low period, the device converts the recently sampled signal. It uses SCLK for
conversions. Conversion is complete on the 16th SCLK falling edge. CS can be high at any time after the 16th
SCLK falling edge (see the Parameter Measurement Information for more details). The CS rising edge after the
16th SCLK falling edge and before the 29th SCLK falling edge keeps the device in the 16-clock data frame. The
device output goes to 3-state when CS is high. It is also permissible to stop SCLK after the device has seen the
16th SCLK falling edge.

CS can be held low past the 16th falling edge of SCLK. The devices continue to output recently converted data
starting with the 16th SCLK falling edge. If CS is held low until the 30th SCLK falling edge, then the devices
detect 32-clock mode. Note that the device data from recent conversions are already output with no latency
before the 30th SCLK falling edge. Once 32-clock mode is detected, the device outputs 16 zeros during the next
conversion (in fact, for the first 16 clocks), unlike 16-clock mode where the devices output the previous
conversion result. SCLK can be stopped after the devices have seen the 30th falling edge with CS low.
CONVERSION ABORT
For some event triggered applications such as latching position of absolute position sensor on marker or homing
pulse, it is essential to abort ongoing conversion on event and quickly start fresh acquisition. ADS794X features
conversion abort function. CS high during conversion (during first 16 clocks) will abort ongoing conversion and
start fresh acquisition. Device will sample acquired signal during CS high period on falling edge of CS and will
start conversion normally, however data on SDO (conversion results from aborted frame) will not be valid.
For example if conversion is aborted during ‘nth’ frame and (n+1) is first valid frame after conversion abort. SDO
data during frame number (n+1) (corresponding to nth conversion) will not be valid. Conversion results for sample
and conversion during frame number (n+1) will be available in frame number (n+2).
POWER-DOWN
The ADS7945/6 devices offer an easy-to-use power-down feature available through a dedicated PDEN pin (pin
12). A high level on PDEN at the CS rising edge enables the power-down mode for that particular cycle.
Figure 83 to Figure 85 illustrate device operation with power-down in both 32-clock and 16-clock mode.
Many applications must slow device operation. For speeds below approximately 500 kSPS, it is convenient to
use 32-clock mode with power-down. This configuration results in considerable power savings.
As shown in Figure 83, PDEN is held at a logic '1' level. Note that the device looks at the PDEN status only at
the CS rising edge; however, for continuous low-speed operation, it is convenient to continuously hold PDEN = 1.
The devices detect power-down mode on the CS rising edge with PDEN = 1.

conversions complete. However, the devices can still output data as per the timings described previously. The
devices consume dynamic power-down current (IPD-DYNAMIC) during data out operations. It is recommended to
stop the clock after the 32nd SCLK falling edge to further save power down to the static power-down current
level (IPD-STATIC). The devices power up again on the SCLK rising edge. However, they require an extra 1 µs to
power up completely. CS must be high for the 1 µs + tACQ (min) period.

Figure 84. Entry Into Power-Down with 16-Clock Burst Mode
As shown in Figure 84, the two frames capturing the N–1 and Nth samples are normal 16-clock frames. Keeping
PDEN = 1 before the CS rising edge in the next frame ensures that the devices detect the power-down mode.
Data from the Nth sample are read during this frame. It is expected that the Nth sample represents the last data
of interest in the burst of conversions. The devices enter the power-down state after the end of conversions. This
is the 16th SCLK falling edge. It is recommended to stop the clock after the 16th SCLK falling edge. Note that it
is mandatory not to have more than 29 SCLK falling edges during the CS low period. This limitation ensures that
the devices remain in 16-clock mode.
The devices remain in a power-down state as long as CS is low. A CS rising edge with PDEN = 0 brings the
devices out of the power-down state. It is necessary to ensure that the CS high time for the first sample after
power up is more than 1 µs + tACQ (min).

APPLICATION INFORMATION: ADS7945
The ADS7945 employs a sample-and-hold stage at the input; see Figure 76 for a typical equivalent circuit of a
sample-and-hold stage. The device connects a 32 pF sampling capacitor during sampling. This configuration
results in a glitch at the input terminals of the device at the start of the sample. The external circuit must be
designed in such a way that the input can settle to the required accuracy during the sampling time chosen.
Figure 86 shows a typical driving circuit for the analog inputs.

Figure 86. Typical Input Driving Circuit for the ADS7945
The 470 pF capacitor across the AINxP and AINxN terminals decouples the driving op amp from the sampling
glitch. It is recommended to split the series resistance of the input filter in two equal values as shown in
Figure 86. It is recommended that both input terminals see the same impedance from the external circuit. The
low-pass filter at the input limits noise bandwidth of the driving op amps. Select the filter bandwidth so that the
full-scale step at the input can settle to the required accuracy during the sampling time. Equation 1, Equation 2,
and Equation 3 are useful for filter component selection.
Sampling Time
Filter Time Constant (tAU) =
Settling Resolution ´ ln(2)
Where:
Settling resolution is the accuracy in LSB to which the input needs to settle. A typical settling resolution
for the 14-bit device is 15 or 16.
(1)
Filter Time Constant (tAU) = R ´ C
(2)
Filter Bandwidth =
1
2 ´ p ´ tAU
(3)
Also, make sure the driving op amp bandwidth does not limit the signal bandwidth below filter bandwidth. In
many applications, signal bandwidth may be much lower than filter bandwidth. In this case, an additional
low-pass filter may be used at the input of the driving op amp. This signal filter bandwidth can be selected in
accordance with the input signal bandwidth.
INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE
The AIN+ and AIN– inputs to the ADS7945 should typically vary between 0 V and VREF with a common-mode of
VREF/2. The ADS7945 offers excellent CMRR which makes it possible to achieve close to the rated performance
of the converter even in cases where the common-mode input is not well-controlled. The device can accept a
±200 mV variation in the common-mode voltage at any VDD/VREF combination allowing use of the entire ADC
signal range (–VREF to +VREF differentially).

DRIVING AN ADC WITHOUT A DRIVING OP AMP
For some low input signal bandwidth applications, such as battery power monitoring or mains monitoring, it is not
required to operate an ADC at high sampling rates. In fact, it is desirable to avoid using a driving op amp from a
cost perspective. In these cases, the ADC input sees the impedance of the signal source (such as a battery or
mains transformer). This section elaborates the effects of source impedance on sampling frequency.
Equation 1 can be rewritten as Equation 4:
Sampling Time = Filter Time Constant × Settling Resolution × ln(2)
(4)
As shown in Figure 87, it is recommended to use a bypass capacitor across the positive and negative ADC input
terminals.

Table 4 lists the recommended bypass capacitor values and the filter time constant for different source
resistances. It is recommended to use a 10 pF bypass capacitor, at minimum. Table 4 assumes RS = 5 Ω;
however, depending on the application, RS can be chosen to be 0 Ω. In this case, there is an extra margin of 5 Ω
for RSOURCE.

Typically, settling resolution is selected as (ADC resolution + 2). For the ADS7945 (14-bit) the ideal settling
resolution is 16. Using Equation 2 and Equation 3, the sampling time can be easily determined for a given source
impedance and allows 80 ns of sampling time for a 14-bit ADC with 7.2 ns of filter time constant, which matches
the ADS7945 specifications. For net source impedance (2 × (RSOURCE + RS)) above 171 Ω, the filter time
constant continues to increase beyond the 7.2 ns required for an 80 ns sampling time. This increment increases
the minimum permissible sampling time for 14-bit settling and the device must be operated at a lower sampling
rate.
The device sampling rate can be maximized by using a 40 MHz clock even for lower throughputs. Table 5 shows
typical calculations for the ADS7945.

The ADS7945 is a mixed-signal device. For maximum performance, proper decoupling, grounding, and proper
termination of digital signals are essential. Figure 90 shows the essential components around the ADC. All
capacitors shown are ceramic. These decoupling capacitors must be placed close to the respective signal pins.
There is a 47 Ω source series termination resistor shown on the SDO signal. This resistor must be placed as

A common ground plane for both analog and digital often enables better results. Typically, the second PCB layer
is the ground plane. The ADC ground pins are returned to the ground plane through multiple vias (PTH). It is a
good practice to place analog components on one side and digital components on other side of the ADC (or
ADCs). All signals must be routed, assuming there is a split ground plane for analog and digital. Furthermore, it
is better to split the ground initially during layout. Route all analog and digital traces so that the traces see the
respective ground all along the second layer. Then short both grounds to form a common ground plane.
