It is a complete solution with an on-chip sample-and-hold, a 14-bit pipelined CMOS ADC and a low drift programmable reference. The digital output is parallel, with a 14-bit two’s complement format and an out-of-range (overflow) bit. The rising edge of the CLK begins the conversion. The differential analog inputs are simultaneously sampled and passed on to the pipelined A/D. After two more conversion starts (plus a 100ns conversion time) the digital outputs are updated with the conversion result and will be ready for capture on the third rising clock edge. Thus even though a new conversion is begun every time CLK goes high, each result takes three clock cycles to reach the output. The analog signals that are passed from stage to stage in the pipelined A/D are stored on capacitors. The signals on these capacitors will be lost if the delay between conversions is too long. For accurate conversion results, the part should be clocked faster than 50kHz. In some pipelined A/D converters if there is no clock present, dynamic logic on the chip will droop and the power consumption sharply increases. The LTC1740 doesn’t have this problem. If the part is not clocked for 1ms, an internal timer will refresh the dynamic logic. Thus the clock can be turned off for long periods of time to save power. 5V digital systems. For single supply operation, VSS should be connected to analog ground. For dual supply operation, VSS should be connected to – 5V. All VDD pins should be connected to a clean 5V analog supply. (Don’t connect VDD to a noisy system digital supply.) Analog Input Range The LTC1740 has a flexible analog input with a wide selection of input ranges. The input range is always differential and is set by the voltage at the VREF pin (Figure␣ 1). The input range of the A/D core is fixed at ±VREF/1.8. The reference voltage, VREF, is either set by the on-chip voltage reference or directly driven by an external voltage. Internal Reference Figure 2 shows a simplified schematic of the LTC1740 reference circuitry. An on-chip temperature compensated bandgap reference (VCM) is factory trimmed to 2.500V. The voltage at the VREF pin sets the input span of the ADC to ±VREF/1.8. An internal voltage divider converts VCM to 2.250V, which is connected to a reference amplifier. The reference programming pin, SENSE, controls how the TO ADC VREF 1µF + 1k Power Supplies The LTC1740 will operate from either a single 5V or dual ±5V supply, making it easy to interface the analog input to single or dual supply systems. The digital output drivers have their own power supply pin (OVDD) which can be set from 3V to 5V, allowing direct connection to either 3V or + VIN – R1 5k SENSE R2 5k LOGIC 2.5V REFERENCE +AIN –AIN VREF – ±VREF 1.8 ADC CORE 2.250V VCM 1µF 1740 F01 1740 F02 Figure 1. Analog Input Circuit Figure 2. Reference Circuit 1740f 9 LTC1740 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO reference amplifier drives the VREF pin. If SENSE is tied to ground, the reference amplifier feedback is connected to the R1/R2 voltage divider, thus making VREF = 4.500V. If SENSE is tied to VREF, the reference amplifier feedback is connected to SENSE thus making VREF = 2.250V. If SENSE is tied to VDD, the reference amplifier is disconnected from VREF and VREF can be driven by an external voltage. With additional resistors between VREF and SENSE, and SENSE and GND, VREF can be set to any voltage between 2.250V and 4.5V. An external reference or a DAC can be used to drive VREF over a 0V to 5V range (Figures 3a and 3b). The input impedance of the VREF pin is 1kΩ, so a buffer may be required for high accuracy. Driving VREF with a DAC is useful in applications where the peak input signal amplitude may vary. The input span of the ADC can then be adjusted to match the peak input signal, maximizing the signal-to-noise ratio. 5V VIN VOUT VREF 1µF LT1019A-2.5 5V LTC1740 SENSE 1740 F03a Figure 3a.

Driving VREF with a DAC Driving the Analog Inputs The differential inputs of the LTC1740 are easy to drive. The inputs may be driven differentially or single-ended (i.␣ e., the AIN – input is held at a fixed value). The AIN – and AIN + inputs are simultaneously sampled and any common mode signal is reduced by the high common mode rejection of the sample-and-hold circuit. Any common mode input value is acceptable as long as the input pins stay between VDD and VSS. During conversion the analog inputs are high impedance. At the end of conversion the inputs draw a small current spike while charging the sample-and-hold. DC Coupling the Input LTC1740 1µF The VCM pin is a low output impedance 2.5V reference that can be used by external circuitry. For single 5V supply applications it is convenient to connect AIN – directly to the VCM pin. For superior dynamic performance in dual supply mode, the LTC1740 should be operated with the analog inputs centered at ground, and in single supply mode the inputs should be centered at 2.5V. For the best dynamic performance, the analog inputs can be driven differentially via a transformer or differential amplifier. VCM 1µF 5k Both the VCM and VREF pins must be bypassed with capacitors to ground. For best performance, 1µF or larger ceramic capacitors are recommended. For the case of external circuitry driving VREF, a smaller capacitor can be used at VREF so the input range can be changed quickly. In this case, a 0.2µF or larger ceramic capacitor is acceptable. 1740 F03b In many applications the analog input signal can be directly coupled to the LTC1740 inputs. If the input signal is centered around ground, such as when dual supply op amps are used, simply connect AIN – to ground and connect VSS to – 5V (Figure 4). In a single power supply system with the input signal centered around 2.5V, connect AIN – to VCM and VSS to ground (Figure 5). If the input signal is not centered around ground or 2.5V, the voltage for AIN – must be generated externally by a resistor divider or a voltage reference (Figure 6). 1740f 10 LTC1740 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO 5V 5V C 0V +AIN VIN 0V +AIN VIN LTC1740 LTC1740 –AIN –AIN R VCM 1µF C R VCM VSS 1µF 1405 F04 VSS 1740 F07 –5V Figure 4.

Dual Supply Transformer Coupled Input Figure 6. DC Coupling a 0V to 2.5V Signal Differential Operation AC Coupling the Input The analog inputs to the LTC1740 can also be AC coupled through a capacitor, though in most cases it is simpler to directly couple the input to the ADC. Figure 7 shows an example where the input signal is centered around ground and the ADC operates from a single 5V supply. Note that the performance would improve if the ADC was operated from a dual supply and the input was directly coupled (as in Figure 4). With AC coupling the DC resistance to ground should be roughly matched for AIN + and AIN – to maintain offset accuracy. The THD and SFDR performance of the LTC1740 can be improved by using a center tap RF transformer to drive the inputs differentially. Though the signal can no longer be DC coupled, the improvement in dynamic performance makes this an attractive solution for some applications. Typical connections for single and dual supply systems are shown in Figures 8a and 8b. Good choices for transformers are the Mini Circuits T1-1T (1:1 turns ratio) and T4-6T (1:4 turns ratio). For best results the transformer should be located close to the LTC1740 on the printed circuit board. 1740f 11 LTC1740 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Choosing an Input Amplifier The best choice for an op amp to drive the LTC1740 will depend on the application. Generally applications fall into two categories: AC applications where dynamic specifications are most critical and time domain applications where DC accuracy and settling time are most critical. Input Filtering The noise and the distortion of the input amplifier and other circuitry must be considered since they will add to the LTC1740 noise and distortion. The small-signal bandwidth of the sample-and-hold circuit is 80MHz. Any noise or distortion products that are present at the analog inputs will be summed over this entire bandwidth. Noisy input circuitry should be filtered prior to the analog inputs to minimize noise. A simple 1-pole RC filter is sufficient for many applications. For example, Figure 9 shows a 1000pF capacitor from + AIN to – AIN and a 30Ω source resistor to limit the input bandwidth to 5.3MHz. The 1000pF capacitor also acts as a charge reservoir for the input sample-and-hold and isolates the amplifier driving VIN from the ADC’s small current glitch. In undersampling applications, an input capacitor this large may prohibitively limit the input bandwidth. If this is the case, use as large an input capacitance as possible. High quality capacitors and resistors should be +AIN 1000pF LTC1740 –AIN 1740 F09 Figure 9. RC Input Filter used since these components can add distortion. NPO and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can generate distortion from self-heating and from damage that may occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount resistors are much less susceptible to both problems. Digital Outputs and Overflow Bit (OF) Figure 10 shows the ideal input/output characteristics for the LTC1740. The output data is two’s complement binary for all input ranges and for both single and dual supply operation. One LSB = VREF/(0.9 • 16384). To create a straight binary output, invert the MSB (D13). The overflow bit (OF) indicates when the analog input is outside the input range of the converter. OF is high when the output code is 10 0000 0000 0000 or 01 1111 1111 1111. 1 OVERFLOW 0 BIT 011…111 011…110 011…101 OUTPUT CODE Choosing an input amplifier is easy if a few requirements are taken into consideration. First, to limit the magnitude of the voltage spike seen by the amplifier from charging the sampling capacitor, choose an amplifier that has a low output impedance (30pF) external buffers or 100Ω resistors in series with the digital outputs are suggested. Clock Input The LTC1740 only uses the rising edge of the CLK pin for internal timing, and CLK doesn’t necessarily need to have a 50% duty cycle. For optimal AC performance the rise time of the CLK should be less than 5ns. If the available clock has a rise time slower than 5ns, it can be locally sped up with a logic gate. The clock can be driven with 5V CMOS, 3V CMOS or TTL logic levels. 5V VIN 5V R1 50k +AIN 24k –AIN 100Ω LTC1740 –5V VREF 1µF 10k R2 1k SENSE VSS 1740 F11 10k –5V Figure 11. Offset and Full-Scale Adjust Circuit 1740f 13 LTC1740 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO As with all fast ADCs, the noise performance of the LTC1740 is sensitive to clock jitter when high speed inputs are present. The SNR performance of an ADC when the performance is limited by jitter is given by: SNR = – 20log (2π fIN tJ)dB where fIN is the frequency of an input sine wave and tJ is the root-mean-square jitter due to the clock, the analog input and the A/D aperture jitter. To minimize clock jitter, use a clean clock source such as a crystal oscillator, treat the clock signals as sensitive analog traces and use dedicated packages with good supply bypassing for any clock drivers. Board Layout To obtain the best performance from the LTC1740, a printed circuit board with a ground plane is required. Layout for the printed circuit board should ensure that digital and analog signal lines are separated as much as possible. In particular, care should be taken not to run any digital track alongside an analog signal track. An analog ground plane separate from the logic system ground should be placed under and around the ADC. Pins␣ 6, 7, 10, 31, 34 (GND), Pins 11, 28 (OGND) and all other analog grounds should be connected to this ground plane. In single supply mode, Pins 29, 30 (VSS) should also be connected to this ground plane. All bypass capacitors for the LTC1740 should also be connected to this ground plane (Figure 12). The digital system ground 1 should be connected to the analog ground plane at only one point, near the OGND pin (Pin 28). The analog ground plane should be as close to the ADC as possible. Care should be taken to avoid making holes in the analog ground plane under and around the part. To accomplish this, we recommend placing vias for power and signal traces outside the area containing the part and the decoupling capacitors (Figure 13). Supply Bypassing High quality, low series resistance ceramic 1µF capacitors should be used at the VDD pins, VCM and VREF. If VSS is connected to – 5V it should also be bypassed to ground with 1µF. In single supply operation VSS should be shorted to the ground plane as close to the part as possible. OVDD requires a 1µF decoupling capacitor to ground. Surface mount capacitors such as the AVX 0805ZC105KAT provide excellent bypassing in a small board space. The traces connecting the pins and the bypass capacitors must be kept short and should be made as wide as possible.
