DESCRIPTION
The THS1230 is a CMOS, low-power, 12-bit, 30 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that operates with a
3.3-V supply. The THS1230 gives circuit developers complete flexibility. The analog input to the THS1230 is
differential with a gain of 0.5 for Mode 2 and 1.0 for Mode 1. The THS1230 provides a wide selection of voltage
references to match the user's design requirements. For more design flexibility, the internal reference can be
bypassed to use an external reference to suit the dc accuracy and temperature drift requirements of the
application. The out-of-range output is used to monitor any out-of-range condition in the THS1230's input range.
The speed, resolution, and single-supply operation of the THS1230 are suited for applications in set top box
(STB), video, multimedia, high-speed acquisition, and communications. The speed and resolution ideally suit
charge-couple device (CCD) input systems such as digital copiers, digital cameras, and camcorders. The wide
input voltage range between VREFB and VREFT allows the THS1230 to be designed into multiple systems.
The THS1230C is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The THS1230I is characterized for operation
from –40°C to 85°C.

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.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Analog Input
The analog input AIN is sampled in the sample and hold unit, the output of which feeds the ADC CORE, where
the process of analog to digital conversion is performed against ADC reference voltages, VREFT and VREFB.
Connecting the EXTREF pin to one of two voltages, DGND or DVDD selects one of the two configurations of ADC
reference generation. The ADC reference voltages come from either the internal reference buffer or completely
external sources. Connect EXTREF to DGND for internal reference generation or to DVDD for external reference
generation.
CON0 and CON1 as described below, select the input configuration mode or place the device in powerdown.
The ADC core drives out through output buffers to the data pins D0 to D11. The output buffers can be disabled
by the OE pin.
A single, sample-rate clock (30 MHz maximum) is required at pin CLK. The analog input signal is sampled on the
rising edge of CLK, and corresponding data is output after the fifth following rising edge.
The THS1230 can operate in differential Mode 1 or differential Mode 2, controlled by the configuration pins
CON0 and CON1 as shown in Table 1. Mode 0 places the device in power-down state or standby for reduced
power consumption.

Table 2 assumes that the delta in ADC reference voltages VREFT and VREFB is set to 1 V, i.e., VREFT – VREFB = 1
V. Note that VREFB and VREFT can be set externally, which will scale the numbers given in this table.
The user-chosen operating configuration and reference voltages determine what input signal voltage range the
THS1230 can handle.
The following sections explain both the internal signal flow of the device and how the input signal span is related
to the ADC reference voltages, as well as the ways in which the ADC reference voltages can be buffered
internally or externally applied.

Sample and Hold
The differential sample and hold processes AIN with respect to the voltages applied to the REFT and REFB pins,
to give a differential output (VP+) – (VP–) = VP given by:
• VP = (AIN+) – ( AIN–)
Analog-to-Digital Converter
No matter what operating configuration is chosen, VP is digitized against ADC reference voltages VREFT and
VREFB. The VREFT and VREFB voltages set the analog input span limits FS+ and FS–, respectively. Any voltages at
AIN greater than REFT or less than REFB causes ADC over-range, which is signaled by OVR going high when
the conversion result is output.
Analog Input
A first-order approximation for the equivalent analog input circuit of the THS1230 is shown in Figure 16. The
equivalent input capacitance CI is 5 pF typical. The input must charge/discharge this capacitance within the
sample period of one half of a clock cycle. When a full-scale voltage step is applied, the input source provides
the charging current through the switch resistance RSW (200 Ω) of S1 and quickly settles. In this case the input
impedance is low. Alternatively, when the source voltage equals the value previously stored on CI, the hold
capacitor requires no input current and the equivalent input impedance is very high.

To maintain the frequency performance outlined in the specifications, the total source impedance should be

The analog input of the THS1230 is a differential input that can be configured in various ways depending on the
signal source and the required level of performance. A fully differential connection (see Figure 17) delivers the
best performance from the converter.

Figure 17. AC-Coupled Differential Input
The analog input can be dc-coupled (see Figure 18) as long as the inputs are within the analog input common
mode voltage range. For example (see Figure 18), V+ and V– are signals centered on GND with a peak-to-peak
voltage of 2 V, and the circuit in Figure 18 is used to interface it with the THS1230. Assume AVDD of the
converter is 3 V. Two problems have to be solved. The first is to shift common mode level (CML) from 0 V to 1.5
V (AVDD/2). To do that, a V bias voltage and an adequate ratio of R1 and R2 have to be selected. For instance, if
V bias = AVDD = 3 V, then R1 = R2. The second is that the differential voltage has to be reduced from 4 V (2 x 2
V) to 1 V, and for that an attenuation of 4 to1 is needed. The attenuation is determined by the relation:
(R3||2R2)/((R3||2R2) + 2R1). One possible solution is R1 = R2 = R3 = 150 Ω. In this case, moreover, the input
impedance (2R1 + (R3||2R2)) will be 400 Ω. The values can be changed to match any other input impedance. A
capacitor, C, connected from AIN+ to AIN– helps filter any high frequency noise on the inputs, also improving
performance. Note that the chosen value of capacitor C must take into account the highest frequency component
of the analog input signal.

A single-ended source may give better overall system performance when it is converted to a differential signal
before driving the THS1230. The configuration in Figure 19 takes a VIN of 1 V and drives the 1:1 transformer
ratio so that value of AIN+ and AIN– converts to fullscale value at the ADC digital output. With VIN at –1 V the
value at AIN+ and AIN– converts to 0 at the ADC digital outputs.

Digital Outputs
The output of THS1230 is in unsigned binary code. The ADC input over-range indicator is output on pin OVRNG.
Capacitive loading on the output should be kept as low as possible (a maximum loading of 10 pF is
recommended) to ensure best performance. Higher output loading causes higher dynamic output currents and
can therefore increase noise coupling into the part's analog front end. To drive higher loads the use of an output
buffer is recommended.

When clocking output data from THS1230, it is important to observe its timing relation to CLK. The pipeline ADC
delay is 5 clock cycles to which the maximum output propagation delay needs to be added.

Layout, Decoupling and Grounding Rules
Proper grounding and layout of the PCB on which THS1230 is populated is essential to achieve the stated
performance. It is advised to use separate analog and digital ground planes that are spliced underneath the IC.
THS1230 has digital and analog pins on opposite sides of the package to make this easier. Because there is no
connection internally between analog and digital grounds, they have to be joined on the PCB. It is advised to do
this at one point in close proximity to THS1230.
Because of the high sampling rate and switched-capacitor architecture, THS1230 generates transients on the
supply and reference lines. Proper decoupling of these lines is therefore essential. Decoupling is recommended
as shown in the schematic of the THS1230 evaluation module in Figure 22.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS AND TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line drawn from zero through full scale.
The point used as zero occurs 1/2 LSB before the first code transition. The full-scale point is defined as level 1/2
LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation is measured from the center of each particular code to the
true straight line between these two end-points.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value.
Therefore, this measure indicates how uniform the transfer function step sizes are. The ideal step size is defined
here as the step size for the device under test, i.e. (last transition level - first transition level)/(2n –2). Using this
definition for DNL separates the effects of gain and offset error. A minimum DNL better than –1 LSB ensures no
missing codes.
Offset and Gain Error
Offset error (in LSBs) is defined as the average offset for all inputs, and gain error is defined as the maximum
error (in LSBs) caused by the angular deviation from the offset corrected straight line.

Analog Input Bandwidth
The analog input bandwidth is defined as the maximum frequency of a 1-dBFS input sine wave that can be
applied to the device for which an extra 3-dB attenuation is observed in the reconstructed output signal.
Output Timing
Output timing td(O) is measured from the 50% level of the CLK input falling edge to the 10%/90% level of the
digital output. The digital output load is not higher than 10 pF.
Output hold time th(O) is measured from the 50% level of the CLK input falling edge to the10%/90% level of the
digital output. The digital output load is not less than 2 pF.
Aperture delay td(A) is measured from the 50% level of the CLK input to the actual sampling instant.
The OE signal is asynchronous.
OE timing td(PZ) is measured from the VIH(min) level of OE to the high-impedance state of the output data. The
digital output load is not higher than 10 pF.
OE timing td(EN) is measured from the VIL(max) level of OE to the instant when the output data reaches VOH(min) or
VOL(max) output levels. The digital output load is not higher than 10 pF.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio + Distortion (SINAD)
SINAD is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components
below the Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for SINAD is expressed in
decibels.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
For a sine wave, SINAD can be expressed in terms of the number of bits. Using the following formula,
• N = (SINAD – 1.76)/6.02
it is possible to get a measure of performance expressed as N, the effective number of bits. Thus, effective
number of bits for a device for sine wave inputs at a given input frequency can be calculated directly from its
measured SINAD.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value of the measured input
signal and is expressed as a percentage or in decibels.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference in dB between the rms amplitude of the input signal and the peak spurious signal.
