DESCRIPTION
The ADS8326 is a 16-bit, sampling, analog-to-digital
(A/D) converter specified for a supply voltage range
from 2.7V to 5.5V. It requires very little power, even
when operating at the full data rate. At lower data
rates, the high speed of the device enables it to
spend most of its time in the power-down mode. For
example, the average power dissipation is less than
0.2mW at a 10kHz data rate.
The ADS8326 offers excellent linearity and very low
noise and distortion. It also features a synchronous
serial (SPI/SSI-compatible) interface and a differential
input. The reference voltage can be set to any level
within the range of 0.1V to VDD.
Low power and small size make the ADS8326 ideal
for portable and battery-operated systems. It is also a
perfect fit for remote data-acquisition modules,
simultaneous multichannel systems, and isolated
data acquisition. The ADS8326 is available in either
an MSOP-8 and an SON-8 package.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

ADS8326
www.ti.com.................................................................................................................................................. SBAS343C – MAY 2007 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2009
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADS8326 is a classic Successive Approximation
Register (SAR) Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter. The
architecture is based on capacitive redistribution that
inherently includes a sample-and-hold function. The
converter is fabricated on a 0.6μ CMOS process. The
architecture and process allow the ADS8326 to
acquire and convert an analog signal at up to
250,000 conversions per second while consuming
less than 10mW from VDD.
Differential
linearity
for
the
ADS8326
is
factory-adjusted via a package-level trim procedure.
The state of the trim elements is stored in non-volatile
memory and is continuously updated after each
acquisition cycle, just prior to the start of the
successive approximation operation. This process
ensures that one complete conversion cycle always
returns the part to its factory-adjusted state in the
event of a power interruption.
The ADS8326 requires an external reference, an
external clock, and a single power source (VDD). The
external reference can be any voltage between 0.1V
and VDD. The value of the reference voltage directly
sets the range of the analog input. The reference
input current depends on the conversion rate of the
ADS8326.
The external clock can vary between 24kHz (1kHz
throughput) and 6.0MHz (250kHz throughput). The
duty cycle of the clock is essentially unimportant, as
long as the minimum high and low times are at least
200ns (VDD = 4.75V or greater). The minimum clock
frequency is set by the leakage on the internal
capacitors to the ADS8326.
The analog input is provided to two input pins: +IN
and –IN. When a conversion is initiated, the
differential input on these pins is sampled on the
internal capacitor array. While a conversion is in
progress, both inputs are disconnected from any
internal function.
The digital result of the conversion is clocked out by
the DCLOCK input and is provided serially (most
significant bit first) on the DOUT pin.
The digital data that is provided on the DOUT pin is for
the conversion currently in progress–there is no
pipeline delay. It is possible to continue to clock the
ADS8326 after the conversion is complete and to
obtain the serial data least significant bit first. See the
Timing Information section for more information.

ANALOG INPUT
0V to +VREF
Peak-to-Peak
The analog input of ADS8326 is differential. The +IN
and –IN input pins allow for a differential input signal.
The amplitude of the input is the difference between
the +IN and –IN input, or (+IN) – (–IN). Unlike some
converters of this type, the –IN input is not resampled
later in the conversion cycle. When the converter
goes into Hold mode or conversion, the voltage
difference between +IN and –IN is captured on the
internal capacitor array.

Common-Mode
Voltage
Figure 38. Methods of Driving the ADS8326
Common Voltage Range (V)
The range of the –IN input is limited to –0.3V to
+0.5V. As a result of this limitation, the differential
input could be used to reject signals that are common
to both inputs in the specified range. Thus, the –IN
input is best used to sense a remote signal ground
that may move slightly with respect to the local
ground potential.
The general method for driving the analog input of the
ADS8326 is shown in Figure 38 and Figure 40. The
–IN input is held at the common-mode voltage. The
+IN input swings from –IN (or common-mode voltage)
to –IN + VREF (or common-mode voltage + VREF ),
and the peak-to-peak amplitude is +VREF . The value
of VREF determines the range over which the
common-mode voltage may vary, as shown in
Figure 39. Figure 6 and Figure 7 (+5V), and
Figure 25 and Figure 26 (+2.7V) illustrate the typical
change in gain and offset as a function of the
common-mode voltage applied to the –IN pin.

The input current required by the analog inputs
depends on a number of factors: sample rate, input
voltage, source impedance, and power-down mode.
Essentially, the current into the ADS8326 charges the
internal capacitor array during the sample period.
After this capacitance has been fully charged, there is
no further input current. The source of the analog
input voltage must be able to charge the input
capacitance (48pF) to a 16-bit settling level within 4.5
clock cycles (0.750μs). When the converter goes into
Hold mode, or while it is in Power-Down mode, the
input impedance is greater than 1GΩ.
Care must be taken regarding the absolute analog
input voltage. To maintain the linearity of the
converter, the –IN input should not drop below GND –
0.3V or exceed GND + 0.5V. The +IN input should
always remain within the range of GND – 0.3V to VDD
+ 0.3V, or –IN to –IN + VREF , whichever limit is
reached first. Outside of these ranges, the converter
linearity may not meet specifications. To minimize
noise, low bandwidth input signals with low-pass
filters should be used. In each case, care should be
taken to ensure that the output impedance of the
sources driving the +IN and –IN inputs are matched.
Often, a small capacitor (20pF) between the positive
and negative inputs helps to match their impedance.
To obtain maximum performance from the ADS8326,
the input circuit from Figure 41 is recommended.

REFERENCE INPUT
ADS8326
The external reference sets the analog input range.
The ADS8326 operates with a reference in the range
of 0.1V to VDD. There are several important
implications to this.
As the reference voltage is reduced, the analog
voltage weight of each digital output code is reduced.
This is often referred to as the least significant bit
(LSB) size and is equal to the reference voltage
divided by 65,536. This means that any offset or gain
error inherent in the A/D converter will appear to
increase (in terms of LSB size) as the reference
voltage is reduced. For a reference voltage of 2.5V,
the value of the LSB is 38.15μV, and for a reference
voltage of 5V, the LSB is 76.3μV.
The noise inherent in the converter will also appear to
increase with a lower LSB size. With a 5V reference,
the internal noise of the converter typically contributes
only 1.5LSB peak-to-peak of potential error to the
output code. When the external reference is 2.5V, the
potential error contribution from the internal noise will
be two times larger (3LSB). The errors arising from
the internal noise are Gaussian in nature and can be
reduced by averaging consecutive conversion results.
For more information regarding noise, see Figure 15,
Peak-to-Peak Noise for a DC Input vs Reference
Voltage. Note that the Effective Number Of Bits
(ENOB) figure is calculated based on the converter
signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio with a 1kHz, 0dB
input signal. SINAD is related to ENOB as follows:
SINAD = 6.02 × ENOB + 1.76
With lower reference voltages, extra care should be
taken to provide a clean layout including adequate
bypassing, a clean power supply, a low-noise
reference, and a low-noise input signal. Due to the
lower LSB size, the converter is also more sensitive
to external sources of error, such as nearby digital
signals and electromagnetic interference.
The equivalent input circuit for the reference voltage
is presented in Figure 42. During the conversion
process, an equivalent capacitor of 24pF is switched
on. To obtain optimum performance from the
ADS8326, special care must be taken in designing
the interface circuit to the reference input pin. To
ensure a stable reference voltage, a 47μF tantalum
capacitor with low ESR should be connected as close
as possible to the input pin. If a high output
impedance reference source is used, an additional
operational amplifier with a current-limiting resistor
must be placed in front of the capacitors.

Figure 42. Input Reference Circuit and Interface
When the ADS8326 is in Power-Down mode, the
input resistance of the reference pin will have a value
of 5GΩ. Since the input capacitors must be
recharged before the next conversion starts, an
operational
amplifier
with
good
dynamic
characteristics must be used to buffer the reference
input.
Noise
The transition noise of the ADS8326 itself is
extremely low, as shown in Figure 20 (+5V) and
Figure 37 (+2.7V); it is much lower than competing
A/D converters. These histograms were generated by
applying a low-noise DC input and initiating 8192
conversions. The digital output of the A/D converter
will vary in output code because of the internal noise
of the ADS8326. This is true for all 16-bit, SAR-type
A/D converters. Using a histogram to plot the output
codes, the distribution should appear bell-shaped with
the peak of the bell curve representing the nominal
code for the input value. The ±1σ, ±2σ, and ±3σ
distributions will represent 68.3%, 95.5%, and 99.7%,
respectively, of all codes. The transition noise can be
calculated by dividing the number of codes measured
by 6, which yields the ±3σ distribution, or 99.7%, of
all codes. Statistically, up to three codes could fall
outside the distribution when executing 1000
conversions. The ADS8326, with < 3 output codes for
the ±3σ distribution, yields < ±0.5LSB of transition
noise. Remember, to achieve this low-noise
performance, the peak-to-peak noise of the input
signal and reference must be < 50μV.
Averaging
The noise of the A/D converter can be compensated
by averaging the digital codes. By averaging
conversion results, transition noise is reduced by a
factor of 1/√n , where n is the number of averages.
For example, averaging four conversion results
reduces the transition noise from ±0.5LSB to
±0.25LSB. Averaging should only be used for input
signals with frequencies near DC.
For AC signals, a digital filter can be used to
low-pass filter and decimate the output codes. This
works in a similar manner to averaging; for every
decimation by 2, the signal-to-noise ratio improves by
3dB.

DIGITAL INTERFACE
Signal Levels
The ADS8326 has a wide range of power-supply
voltage. The A/D converter, as well as the digital
interface circuit, is designed to accept and operate
from 2.7V up to 5.5V. This voltage range will
accommodate different logic levels. When the
ADS8326 power-supply voltage is in the range of
4.5V to 5.5V (5V logic level), the ADS8326 can be
connected directly to another 5V, CMOS-integrated
circuit. When the ADS8326 power-supply voltage is in
the range of 2.7V to 3.6V (3V logic level), the
ADS8326 can be connected directly to another 3.3V
LVCMOS integrated circuit.
A falling CS signal initiates the conversion and data
transfer. The first 4.5 to 5.0 clock periods of the
conversion cycle are used to sample the input signal.
After the fifth falling DCLOCK edge, DOUT is enabled
and will output a low value for one clock period. For
the next 16 DCLOCK periods, DOUT will output the
conversion result, most significant bit first. After the
least significant bit (B0) has been output, subsequent
clocks will repeat the output data, but in a least
significant bit first format.
After the most significant bit (B15) has been
repeated, DOUT will tri-state. Subsequent clocks will
have no effect on the converter. A new conversion is
initiated only when CS has been taken high and
returned low.
Serial Interface
Data Format
The ADS8326 communicates with microprocessors
and other digital systems via a synchronous 3-wire
serial interface, as illustrated in the Timing
Information
section.
The
DCLOCK
signal
synchronizes the data transfer, with each bit being
transmitted on the falling edge of DCLOCK. Most
receiving systems will capture the bitstream on the
rising edge of DCLOCK. However, if the minimum
hold time for DOUT is acceptable, the system can use
the falling edge of DCLOCK to capture each bit.
The output data from the ADS8326 is in Straight
Binary format, as shown in Figure 43. This figure
represents the ideal output code for a given input
voltage and does not include the effects of offset,
gain error, or noise.

POWER DISSIPATION
Short Cycling
The architecture of the converter, the semiconductor
fabrication process, and a careful design allow the
ADS8326 to convert at up to a 250kHz rate while
requiring very little power. However, for the absolute
lowest power dissipation, there are several things to
keep in mind.
Another way to save power is to use the CS signal to
short-cycle the conversion. The ADS8326 places the
latest data bit on the DOUT line as it is generated;
therefore, the converter can easily be short-cycled.
This term means that the conversion can be
terminated at any time. For example, if only 14 bits of
the conversion result are needed, then the conversion
can be terminated (by pulling CS high) after the 14th
bit has been clocked out.
The power dissipation of the ADS8326 scales directly
with conversion rate. Therefore, the first step to
achieving the lowest power dissipation is to find the
lowest conversion rate that will satisfy the
requirements of the system.
In addition, the ADS8326 goes into Power-Down
mode under two conditions: when the conversion is
complete and whenever CS is high (see the Timing
Information section). Ideally, each conversion should
occur as quickly as possible, preferably at a 6.0MHz
clock rate. This way, the converter spends the
longest possible time in Power-Down mode. This is
very important because the converter not only uses
power on each DCLOCK transition (as is typical for
digital CMOS components), but also uses some
current for the analog circuitry, such as the
comparator. The analog section dissipates power
continuously until Power-Down mode is entered.
Figure 17 and Figure 18 (+5V), and Figure 35 and
Figure 36 illustrate the current consumption of the
ADS8326 versus sample rate. For these graphs, the
converter is clocked at maximum speed regardless of
the sample rate. CS is held high during the remaining
sample period.
This technique can also be used to lower the power
dissipation (or to increase the conversion rate) in
those applications where an analog signal is being
monitored until some condition becomes true. For
example, if the signal is outside a predetermined
range, the full 16-bit conversion result may not be
needed. If so, the conversion can be terminated after
the first n bits, where n might be as low as 3 or 4.
This results in lower power dissipation in both the
converter and the rest of the system because they
spend more time in Power-Down mode.
POWER-ON RESET
The ADS8326 bias circuit is self-starting. There may
be a static current (approximately 1.5mA with VDD =
5V) after power-on, unless the circuit is powered
down. It is recommended to run a single test
conversion (configured the same as any regular
conversion) after the power supply reaches at least
2.4V to ensure the device is put into power-down
mode.
There is an important distinction between the
power-down mode that is entered after a conversion
is complete and the full power-down mode that is
enabled when CS is high. CS low will only shut down
the analog section. The digital section is completely
shut down only when CS is high. Thus, if CS is left
low at the end of a conversion, and the converter is
continually clocked, the power consumption will not
be as low as when CS is high.

LAYOUT
For optimum performance, care should be taken with
the physical layout of the ADS8326 circuitry. This is
particularly true if the reference voltage is low and/or
the conversion rate is high. At a 250kHz conversion
rate, the ADS8326 makes a bit decision every 167ns.
That is, for each subsequent bit decision, the digital
output must be updated with the results of the last bit
decision, the capacitor array appropriately switched
and charged, and the input to the comparator settled
to a 16-bit level, all within one clock cycle.
The basic SAR architecture is sensitive to spikes on
the power supply, reference, and ground connections
that occur just prior to latching the comparator output.
Thus, during any single conversion for an n-bit SAR
converter, there are n windows in which large
external transient voltages can easily affect the
conversion result. Such spikes might originate from
switching power supplies, digital logic, and
high-power devices, to name a few potential sources.
This particular source of error can be very difficult to
track down if the glitch is almost synchronous to the
converter DCLOCK signal because the phase
difference between the two changes with time and
temperature, causing sporadic misoperation.
With this in mind, power to the ADS8326 should be
clean and well-bypassed. A 0.1μF ceramic bypass
capacitor should be placed as close as possible to
the ADS8326 package. In addition, a 1μF to 10μF
capacitor and a 5Ω or 10Ω series resistor may be
used to low-pass filter a noisy supply.
resistor can help in this case). Keep in mind that
while the ADS8326 draws very little current from the
reference on average, there are still instantaneous
current demands placed on the external input and
reference circuitry.
Texas Instruments' OPA365 op amp provides
optimum performance for buffering the signal inputs;
the OPA350 can be used to effectively buffer the
reference input.
Also, keep in mind that the ADS8326 offers no
inherent rejection of noise or voltage variation in
regards to the reference input. This is of particular
concern when the reference input is tied to the power
supply. Any noise and ripple from the supply will
appear directly in the digital results. While
high-frequency noise can be filtered out, as described
in the previous paragraph, voltage variation resulting
from the line frequency (50Hz or 60Hz) can be
difficult to remove.
The GND pin on the ADS8326 should be placed on a
clean ground point. In many cases, this will be the
analog ground. Avoid connecting the GND pin too
close to the grounding point for a microprocessor,
microcontroller, or digital signal processor. If needed,
run a ground trace directly from the converter to the
power-supply connection point. The ideal layout will
include an analog ground plane for the converter and
associated analog circuitry.
The reference should be similarly bypassed with a
47μF capacitor. Again, a series resistor and large
capacitor can be used to low-pass filter the reference
voltage. If the reference voltage originates from an op
amp, make sure that the op amp can drive the
bypass capacitor without oscillation (the series
