n n n n n n n n n n n n
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®2365/LTC2366 are 1Msps/3Msps, 12-bit, sampling A/D converters that draw only 2mA and 2.6mA, respectively, from a single 3V supply. These high performance devices include a high dynamic range sample-and-hold and a high speed serial interface. The full scale input is 0V to VDD or VREF . Outstanding AC performance includes 72dB SINAD and –80dB THD at sample rates of 3Msps. The serial interface provides flexible power management and allows maximum power efficiency at low throughput rates. These devices are available in tiny 6- and 8-lead TSOT-23 packages. The serial interface, tiny TSOT-23 package and extremely high sample rate-to-power ratio make the LTC2365/LTC2366 ideal for compact, low power, high speed systems. The high impedance single-ended analog input and the ability to operate with reduced spans (down to 1.4V full scale) allow direct connection to sensors and transducers in many applications, eliminating the need for gain stages.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND. Note 3: When this pin, AIN, is taken below GND or above VDD, it will be clamped by internal diodes. These products can handle input currents greater than 100mA below GND or above VDD without latchup. Note 4: VDD = OVDD = VREF = 2.35V to 3.6V, fSMPL = fSMPL(MAX) and fSCK = fSCK(MAX) unless otherwise specified. Note 5: Integral linearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve. The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
Note 6: Linearity, offset and gain specifications apply for a single-ended AIN input with respect to GND. Note 7: Typical RMS noise at code transitions. Note 8: Guaranteed by characterization. All input signals are specified with tr = tf = 2ns (10% to 90% of VDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6V. Note 9: All timing specifications given are with a 10pF capacitance load. With a capacitance load greater than this value, a digital buffer or latch must be used. Note 10: Minimum fSCK at which specifications are guaranteed. Note 11: The time required for the output to cross the VIH or VIL voltage. Note 12: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test. Note 13: High temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime is derated at temperatures greater than 105°C.

LTC2365/LTC2366 PIN FUNCTIONS
LTC2365/LTC2366 (S6 Package) VDD (Pin 1): Positive Supply. The VDD range is 2.35V to 3.6V. VDD also defines the input span of the ADC, 0V to VDD. Bypass to GND and to a solid ground plane with a 10μF ceramic capacitor (or 10μF tantalum in parallel with 0.1μF ceramic). GND (Pin 2): Ground. The GND pin must be tied directly to a solid ground plane. AIN (Pin 3): Analog Input. AIN is a single-ended input with respect to GND with a range from 0V to VDD. SCK (Pin 4): Shift Clock Input. The SCK serial clock advances the conversion process. SDO data transitions on the falling edge of SCK. SDO (Pin 5): Three-state Serial Data Output. The A/D conversion result is shifted out on SDO as a serial data stream with MSB first. The data stream consists of two leading zeros followed by 12 bits of conversion data and two trailing zeros. CS (Pin 6): Chip Select Input. This active low signal starts a conversion on the falling edge and frames the serial data transfer. LTC2365/LTC2366 (TS8 Package) VDD (Pin 1): Positive Supply. The VDD range is 2.35V to 3.6V. Bypass to GND and to a solid ground plane with a 10μF ceramic capacitor (or 10μF tantalum in parallel with 0.1μF ceramic). VREF (Pin 2): Reference Input. VREF defines the input span of the ADC, 0V to VREF and the VREF range is 1.4V to VDD. Bypass to GND and to a solid ground plane with a 4.7μF ceramic capacitor (or 4.7μF tantalum in parallel with 0.1μF ceramic). GND (Pin 3): Ground. The GND pin must be tied directly to a solid ground plane. AIN (Pin 4): Analog Input. AIN is a single-ended input with respect to GND with a range from 0V to VREF. OVDD (Pin 5): Output Driver Supply for SDO. The OVDD range is 1V to 3.6V. Bypass to GND and to a solid ground plane with a 4.7μF ceramic capacitor (or 4.7μF tantalum in parallel with 0.1μF ceramic). SDO (Pin 6): Three-state Serial Data Output. The A/D conversion result is shifted out on SDO as a serial data stream with MSB first. The data stream consists of two leading zeros followed by 12 bits of conversion data and two trailing zeros. SCK (Pin 7): Shift Clock Input. The SCK serial clock advances the conversion process. SDO data transitions on the falling edge of SCK. CS (Pin 8): Chip Select Input. This active low signal starts a conversion on the falling edge and frames the serial data transfer.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DC PERFORMANCE The noise of an ADC can be evaluated in two ways: signalto-noise ratio (SNR) in the frequency domain and histogram in the time domain. The LTC2365/LTC2366 excel in both. Figures 5 and 6 demonstrate that the LTC2365/LTC2366 have an SNR of over 72dB. The noise in the time domain histogram is the transition noise associated with a 12-bit resolution ADC which can be measured with a fixed DC signal applied to the input of the ADC. The resulting output codes are collected over a large number of conversions. The shape of the distribution of codes will give an indication of the magnitude of the transition noise. In Figure 4, the distribution of output codes is shown for a DC input that has been digitized 16384 times. The distribution is Gaussian and the RMS code transition is about 0.34LSB. This corresponds to a noise level of 72.7dB relative to a full scale of 3V. DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE The LTC2365/LTC2366 have excellent high speed sampling capability. Fast fourier transform (FFT) test techniques are used to test the ADC’s frequency response, distortion and noise at the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm, the ADC’s spectral content can be examined for frequencies outside the fundamental. Figures 5 and 6 show typical LTC2365 and LTC2366 FFT plots respectively.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Signal-to-Noise plus Distortion Ratio The signal-to-noise plus distortion ratio (SINAD) is the ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency to the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components at the A/D output. The output is band limited to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling frequency. Figure 6 shows a typical FFT with a 3MHz sampling rate and a 1MHz input. The dynamic performance is excellent for input frequencies up to and beyond the Nyquist frequency of 1.5MHz. Effective Number of Bits The effective number of bits (ENOB) is a measurement of the resolution of an ADC and is directly related to SINAD by the equation: ENOB = (SINAD – 1.76)/6.02 where ENOB is the effective number of bits of resolution and SINAD is expressed in dB.

sampling rate of 3MHz, the LTC2366 maintains ENOB above 11 bits up to the Nyquist input frequency of 1.5MHz (refer to Figure 7). Total Harmonic Distortion The total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD is expressed as: V1 where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through Vn are the amplitudes of the second through nth harmonics. THD versus Input Frequency is shown in Figure 8. The LTC2366 has excellent distortion performance up to the Nyquist frequency and beyond.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Intermodulation Distortion If the ADC input signal consists of more than one spectral component, the ADC transfer function nonlinearity can produce intermoduation distortion (IMD) in addition to THD. IMD is the change in one sinusoidal input caused by the presence of another sinusoidal input at a different frequency. If two pure sine waves of frequencies fa and fb are applied to the ADC input, nonlinearities in the ADC transfer function can create distortion products at the sum and difference frequencies of mfa±nfb, where m and n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. For example, the 2nd order IMD terms include (fa ± fb). If the two input sine waves are equal in magnitude, the value (in decibels) of the 2nd order IMD products can be expressed by the following formula: Amplitude at (fa ± fb ) IMD(fa ± fb ) = 20log Amplitude at fa The LTC2365/LTC2366 have good IMD as shown in Figure 9a and Figure 9b respectively.

Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise The peak harmonic or spurious noise is the largest spectral component excluding the input signal and DC. This value is expressed in decibels relative to the RMS value of a full-scale input signal. Full-Power and Full-Linear Bandwidth The full-power bandwidth is that input frequency at which the amplitude of reconstructed fundamental is reduced by 3dB for full-scale input signal. The full-linear bandwidth is the input frequency at which the SINAD has dropped to 68dB (11 effective bits). The LTC2365/LTC2366 have been designed to optimize input bandwidth, allowing the ADC to undersample input signals with frequencies above the converter’s Nyquist Frequency. The noise floor stays very low at high frequencies; SINAD becomes dominated by distortion at frequencies far beyond Nyquist.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW The LTC2365/LTC2366 use a successive approximation algorithm and internal sample-and-hold circuit to convert an analog signal to a 12-bit serial output. Both devices operate from a single 2.35V to 3.6V supply. The LTC2366 samples at a rate of 3Msps with a 48MHz clock while the LTC2365 samples at a rate of 1Msps with a 16MHz clock. The LTC2365/LTC2366 contain a 12-bit, switched-capacitor ADC, a sample-and-hold, and a serial interface (see Block Diagram) and are available in tiny 6- and 8-lead TSOT-23 packages. The devices provide sleep mode control through the serial interface to save power during inactive periods (see the SLEEP MODE section). The S6 package of the LTC2365/LTC2366 uses VDD as the reference and has an analog input range of 0V to VDD. The ADC samples the analog input with respect to GND and outputs the result through the serial interface. The TS8 package provides two additional pins: a reference input pin, VREF, and an output supply pin, OVDD. The ADC can operate with reduced spans down to 1.4V and achieve 342μV resolution. OVDD controls the output swing of the digital output pin, SDO, and allows the device to communicate with 1.8V, 2.5V or 3V digital systems. SERIAL INTERFACE The LTC2365/LTC2366 communicate with microcontrollers, DSPs and other external circuitry via a 3-wire interface. Figure 10 shows the serial interface timing diagram, while Figures 11 and 12 detail the timing diagrams of conversion cycles in 14 and 16 SCK cycles respectively. Data Transfer A falling CS edge starts a conversion and frames the serial data transfer. SCK provides the conversion clock and controls the data transfer during the conversion. CS going low clocks out the first leading zero and subsequent SCK falling edges clock out the remaining data, beginning with the second leading zero. (Therefore, the first SCK falling edge captures the first leading zero and clocks out the second leading zero). The timing diagram in Figure 12 shows that the final bit in the data transfer is valid on the 16th falling edge, since it is clocked out on the previous 15th falling edge. In applications with a slower SCK, it is possible to capture data on each SCK rising edge. In such cases, the first falling edge of SCK clocks out the second leading zero and can be captured on the first rising edge. However, the first leading zero clocked out when CS goes low is missed as shown in Figures 11 and 12. In Figure 12, the 15th falling edge of SCK clocks out the last bit and can be captured on the 15th rising SCK edge. If CS goes low while SCK is low, then CS clocks out the first leading zero and can be captured on the SCK rising edge. The next SCK falling edge clocks out the second leading zero and can be captured on the following rising edge as shown in in Figure 10.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Achieving 3Msps Sample Rate with LTC2366 CS going low places the sample-and-hold into hold mode and starts a conversion. The LTC2365/LTC2366 require at least 14 SCK cycles to finish the conversion. The conversion terminates after the 13th falling SCK edge, which clocks out B0. The 14th falling SCK edge places the sample-and-hold back into sample mode. Ignoring the last two trailing zeros, the user can bring CS high after the 14th falling SCK edge. The user can also keep the last two trailing zeros by bringing CS high right after the 16th falling SCK. In both cases, a sample rate of 3Msps can be achieved by using a 48MHz SCK clock on the LTC2366, where tTHROUGHPUT is 333ns. Serial Data Output (SDO) The SDO output remains in the high impedance state while CS is high. The falling edge of CS starts the conversion and enables SDO. The A/D conversion result is shifted out on the SDO pin as a serial data stream with the MSB first. The data stream consists of two leading zeros followed by 12 bits of conversion data and two trailing zeros. The SDO output returns to the high impedance state at the 16th falling edge of SCK or sooner by bringing ⎯C⎯S high before the 16th falling edge of SCK. The output swing on the SDO pin is controlled by the VDD pin voltage in the S6 package and by the OVDD pin voltage in the TS8 package.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SLEEP MODE The LTC2365/LTC2366 provide a sleep mode to conserve power during inactive periods. Upon power-up, holding CS high initializes the ADC to sleep mode. In sleep mode, all bias circuitry is shut down and only leakage currents remain (0.1μA typ). Entering Sleep Mode The ADC achieves the fastest sampling rate in operational mode (full power-up). The device can also be put into sleep mode for power savings during inactive periods. To force the LTC2365/LTC2366 into sleep mode, the user can interrupt the conversion process by bringing CS high between the 2nd and 10th falling edges of SCK (see Figures 13 and 14). If CS is brought high after the 10th falling edge and before the 16th falling edge, the device remains powered up, but the conversion is terminated and SDO returns to the high impedance state.

Exiting Sleep Mode and Power-Up Time To exit sleep mode, pull CS low and perform a dummy conversion. The LTC2365/LTC2366 device power up completely after the 16th falling edge of SCK. After powering up, the ADC can continuously acquire an input signal and perform conversions as described in the SERIAL INTERFACE section (see Figure 15). The wake-up time is 333ns for the LTC2366 with a 48MHz SCK and 1μs for the LTC2365 with a 16MHz SCK. The sample-and-hold is in hold mode while the device is in sleep mode. The ADC returns to sample mode after the 1st falling edge of SCK during power-up (see Figure 15).

POWER VERSUS SAMPLING RATE Figure 16 shows the power consumption of the LTC2365/ LTC2366 in operational mode. By taking the ADC into sleep mode when not performing a conversion, the average power consumption of the ADC decreases as the sampling rate decreases.

LTC2365/LTC2366 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SINGLE-ENDED ANALOG INPUT Driving the Analog Input The analog input of the LTC2365/LTC2366 is easy to drive. The input draws only one small current spike while charging the sample-and-hold capacitor at the end of conversion. During the conversion, the analog input draws only a small leakage current. If the source impedance of the driving circuit is low, then the input of the LTC2365/LT2366 can be driven directly. As source impedance increases, so will acquisition time. For minimum acquisition time with high source impedance, a buffer amplifier should be used. The main requirement is that the amplifier driving the analog input must settle after the small current spike before the next conversion starts (settling time must be less than 56ns for full throughput rate). While choosing an input amplifier, also keep in mind the amount of noise and harmonic distortion the amplifier contributes. Choosing an Input Amplifier 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 amplifier from charging the sampling capacitor, choose an amplifier that has a low output impedance (
