The ADS7813 is a low-power, single +5V supply, 16-bit
sampling analog-to-digital (A/D) converter. It contains a
complete 16-bit capacitor-based SAR A/D with a
sample/hold, clock, reference, and serial data interface.
The converter can be configured for a variety of input ranges
including ±10V, ±5V, 0V to 10V, and 0.5V to 4.5V. A high
impedance 0.3V to 2.8V input range is also available (input
impedance > 10MΩ). For most input ranges, the input
voltage can swing to +16.5V or –16.5V without damage to
the converter.
A flexible SPI-compatible serial interface allows data to be
synchronized to an internal or external clock. The ADS7813
is specified at a 40kHz sampling rate over the –40°C to
+85°C temperature range. It is available in a 0.3" DIP-16 or
an SO-16 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.
NOTE: (1) Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage.
Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade
device reliability.

NOTES: (1) LSB means Least Significant Bit. For the ±10V input range, one LSB is 305µV.
(2) Typical rms noise at worst case transitions and temperatures.
(3) Full scale error is the worst case of –Full Scale or +Full Scale untrimmed deviation from ideal first and last code transitions, divided by the
transition voltage (not divided by the full-scale range) and includes the effect of offset error.
(4) After the ADS7813 is initially powered on and fully settles, this is the time delay after it is brought out of Power Down Mode until all internal
settling occurs and the analog input is acquired to rated accuracy, and normal conversions can begin again.
(5) All specifications in dB are referred to a full-scale input.
(6) Useable Bandwidth defined as Full-Scale input frequency at which Signal-to-(Noise+Distortion) degrades to 60dB, or 10 bits of accuracy.
(7) Recovers to specified performance after 2 x FS input overvoltage.
(8) ESR = total equivalent series resistance for the compensation capacitors.
(9) The minimum VIH level for the DATACLK signal is 3V.

BUF
Reference Buffer Output. Connect to R1IN, R2IN, or R3IN, as needed.
6
CAP
Reference Buffer Compensation Node. Decouple to ground with a 1µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.01µF ceramic capacitor.
7
REF
Reference Input/Output. Outputs internal +2.5V reference via a series 4kΩ resistor. Decouple this voltage with a 1µF to 2.2µF
tantalum capacitor to ground. If an external reference voltage is applied to this pin, it will override the internal reference.
8
GND
9
DATACLK
Data Clock Pin. With EXT/INT LOW, this pin is an output and provides the synchronous clock for the serial data. The output
is tri-stated when CS is HIGH. With EXT/INT HIGH, this pin is an input and the serial data clock must be provided externally.
Ground
10
DATA
Serial Data Output. The serial data is always the result of the last completed conversion and is synchronized to DATACLK.
If DATACLK is from the internal clock (EXT/INT LOW), the serial data is valid on both the rising and falling edges of DATACLK.
DATA is tri-stated when CS is HIGH.
11
EXT/INT
External or Internal DATACLK Pin. Selects the source of the synchronous clock for serial data. If HIGH, the clock must be
provided externally. If LOW, the clock is derived from the internal conversion clock. Note that the clock used to time the
conversion is always internal regardless of the status of EXT/INT.
12
CONV
Convert Input. A falling edge on this input puts the internal sample/hold into the hold state and starts a conversion regardless
of the state of CS. If a conversion is already in progress, the falling edge is ignored. If EXT/INT is LOW, data from the previous
conversion will be serially transmitted during the current conversion.
13
CS
Chip Select. This input tri-states all outputs when HIGH and enables all outputs when LOW. This includes DATA, BUSY, and
DATACLK (when EXT/INT is LOW). Note that a falling edge on CONV will initiate a conversion even when CS is HIGH.
14
BUSY
Busy Output. When a conversion is started, BUSY goes LOW and remains LOW throughout the conversion. If EXT/INT is
LOW, data is serially transmitted while BUSY is LOW. BUSY is tri-stated when CS is HIGH.
15
PWRD
Power Down Input. When HIGH, the majority of the ADS7813 is placed in a low power mode and power consumption is
significantly reduced. CONV must be taken LOW prior to PWRD going LOW in order to achieve the lowest power
consumption. The time required for the ADS7813 to return to normal operation after power down depends on a number of
factors. Consult the Power Down section for more information.
16
VS
+5V Supply Input. For best performance, decouple to ground with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10µF tantalum
capacitor.

BASIC OPERATION
EXTERNAL DATACLK
Figure 1b shows a basic circuit to operate the ADS7813 with
a ±10V input range. To begin a conversion, a falling edge
must be provided to the CONV input. BUSY will go LOW
indicating that a conversion has started and will stay LOW
until the conversion is complete. Just prior to BUSY rising
near the end of the conversion, the internal working register
holding the conversion result will be transferred to the
internal shift register.
The internal shift register is clocked via the DATACLK
input. The recommended method of reading the conversion
result is to provide the serial clock after the conversion has
completed. See External DATACLK under the Reading
Data section of this data sheet for more information.
INTERNAL DATACLK
Figure 1a shows a basic circuit to operate the ADS7813 with
a ±10V input range. To begin a conversion and serial
transmission of the results from the previous conversion, a
falling edge must be provided to the CONV input. BUSY
will go LOW indicating that a conversion has started and
will stay LOW until the conversion is complete. During the
conversion, the results of the previous conversion will be
transmitted via DATA while DATACLK provides the synchronous clock for the serial data. The data format is 16-bit,
Binary Two’s Complement, and MSB first. Each data bit is
valid on both the rising and falling edge of DATACLK.
BUSY is LOW during the entire serial transmission and can
be used as a frame synchronization signal.

CONV LOW to Rising Edge
of First DATACLK
If a conversion is not currently in progress, a falling edge on
the CONV input places the sample and hold into the hold
mode and begins a conversion, as shown in Figure 2 and
with the timing given in Table II. During the conversion, the
CONV input is ignored. Starting a conversion does not
depend on the state of CS. A conversion can be started once
every 25µs (40kHz maximum conversion rate). There is no
minimum conversion rate.
Even though the CONV input is ignored while a conversion
is in progress, this input should be held static during the
conversion period. Transitions on this digital input can
easily couple into sensitive analog portions of the converter,
adversely affecting the conversion results (see the Sensitivity to External Digital Signals section of this data sheet for
more information).
Ideally, the CONV input should go LOW and remain LOW
throughout the conversion. It should return HIGH sometime
after BUSY goes HIGH. In addition, it should be HIGH
prior to the start of the next conversion for a minimum time
period given by t5. This will ensure that the digital transition
on the CONV input will not affect the signal that is acquired
for the next conversion.
An acceptable alternative is to return the CONV input HIGH
as soon after the start of the conversion as possible. For
example, a negative going pulse 100ns wide would make a
good CONV input signal. It is strongly recommended that
from time t2 after the start of a conversion until BUSY rises,
the CONV input should be held static (either HIGH or
LOW). During this time, the converter is more sensitive to
external noise.

under ideal conditions.
Figure 3 shows the relationship between the various digital
inputs, digital outputs, and internal logic of the ADS7813.
Figure 4 shows when the internal shift register of the
ADS7813 is updated and how this relates to a single conversion cycle. Together, these two figures point out a very
important aspect of the ADS7813: the conversion result is
not available until after the conversion is complete. The
implications of this are discussed in the following sections.

INTERNAL DATACLK
With EXT/INT tied LOW, the result from conversion ‘n’ is
serially transmitted during conversion ‘n+1’, as shown in
Figure 5 and with the timing given in Table II. Serial
transmission of data occurs only during a conversion. When
a transmission is not in progress, DATA and DATACLK are
LOW.
During the conversion, the results of the previous conversion will be transmitted via DATA, while DATACLK
provides the synchronous clock for the serial data. The data
format is 16-bit, Binary Two’s Complement, and MSB first.
Each data bit is valid on both the rising and falling edges of
DATACLK. BUSY is LOW during the entire serial transmission and can be used as a frame synchronization signal.
EXTERNAL DATACLK
With EXT/INT tied HIGH, the result from conversion ‘n’ is
clocked out after the conversion has completed, during the
next conversion (‘n+1’), or a combination of these two.
Figure 6 shows the case of reading the conversion result
after the conversion is complete. Figure 7 describes reading
the result during the next conversion. Figure 8 combines the
important aspects of Figures 6 and 7 as to reading part of the
result after the conversion is complete and the remainder
during the next conversion.
The serial transmission of the conversion result is initiated
by a rising edge on DATACLK. The data format is 16-bit,
Binary Two’s Complement, and MSB first. Each data bit is
valid on the falling edge of DATACLK. In some cases, it

is acquired.
might be possible to use the rising edge of the DATACLK
signal. However, one extra clock period (not shown in
Figures 6, 7, and 8) is needed for the final bit.
The external DATACLK signal must be LOW or CS must
be HIGH prior to BUSY rising (see time t25 in Figures 7 and
8). If this is not observed during this time, the output shift
register of the ADS7813 will not be updated with the
conversion result. Instead, the previous contents of the shift
register will remain and the new result will be lost.
Before reading the next three paragraphs, consult the Sensitivity to External Digital Signals section of this data sheet.
This will explain many of the concerns regarding how and
when to apply the external DATACLK signal.
External DATACLK Active During the Next Conversion
Another method of obtaining the conversion result is shown
in Figure 7. Since the output shift register is not updated
until the end of the conversion, the previous result remains
valid during the next conversion. If a fast clock (≥ 2MHz)
can be provided to the ADS7813, the result can be read
during time t2. During this time, the noise from the
DATACLK signal is less likely to affect the conversion
result.

External DATACLK Active After the Conversion
and During the Next Conversion
Figure 8 shows a method that is a hybrid of the two previous
approaches. This method works very well for microcontrollers
that do serial transfers 8 bits at a time and for slower
microcontrollers. For example, if the fastest serial clock that
the microcontroller can produce is 1µs, the approach shown
in Figure 6 would result in a diminished throughput (26kHz
maximum conversion rate). The method described in Figure
7 could not be used without risk of affecting the conversion
result (the clock would have to be active after time t2). The
approach in Figure 8 results in an improved throughput rate
(33kHz maximum with a 1µs clock) and DATACLK is not
active after time t2.
CHIP SELECT (CS)
The CS input allows the digital outputs of the ADS7813 to
be disabled and gates the external DATACLK signal when
EXT/INT is HIGH. See Figure 9 for the enable and disable
time associated with CS and Figure 3 for a block diagram of
the ADS7813’s logic. The digital outputs can be disabled at
any time.
Note that a conversion is initiated on the falling edge of
CONV even if CS is HIGH. If the EXT/INT input is LOW
(internal DATACLK) and CS is HIGH during the entire
conversion, the previous conversion result will be lost (the
serial transmission occurs but DATA and DATACLK are
disabled).
CS
COMPATIBILITY WITH THE ADS7812
The only difference between the ADS7812 and the ADS7813
is in the internal control logic and the digital interface. Since
the ADS7812 is a 12-bit converter, the internal shift register
is 12 bits wide. In addition, only 12-bit decisions are made
during the conversion. Thus, the ADS7812’s conversion
time is approximately 75% of the ADS7813’s.
In the internal DATACLK mode, the ADS7812 produces 12
DATACLK periods during the conversion instead of the
ADS7813’s 16 (see Figure 5). In the external DATACLK
mode, the ADS7812 can accept 16 clock periods on
DATACLK. At the start of the 13th clock cycle, the DATA
output will go LOW and remain LOW. Thus, Figures 6, 7,
8, and the associated times in Table II can also be used for
the ADS7812, but the last four bits of the conversion result
will be zero.

The ADS7813 offers a number of input ranges. This is
accomplished by connecting the three input resistors to
either the analog input (VIN), to ground (GND), or to the
2.5V reference buffer output (BUF). Table I shows the input
ranges that are typically used in most data acquisition
applications. These ranges are all specified to meet the
specifications given in the Specifications table. Table IV

input connections, and comments regarding the range.

ADS7813

SBAS043C
Likewise, three of the input ranges involve the connection at
R2IN being driven below GND. This input has a reversebiased ESD protection diode connection to ground. If R2IN is
taken below GND – 0.3V, this diode will be forward-biased
and will clamp the negative input at –0.4V to –0.7V, depending on the temperature. Since the negative full-scale value of
these input ranges exceed –0.4V, they are not recommended.
Note that Table IV assumes that the voltage at the REF pin is
+2.5V. This is true if the internal reference is being used or if
the external reference is +2.5V. Other reference voltages will
change the values in Table IV.
HIGH IMPEDANCE MODE
When R1IN, R2IN, and R3IN are connected to the analog input,
the input range of the ADS7813 is 0.3125V to 2.8125V and the
input impedance is greater than 10MΩ. This input range can be
used to connect the ADS7813 directly to a wide variety of
sensors. Figure 10 shows the impedance of the sensor versus
the change in ILE and DLE of the ADS7813. The performance
of the ADS7813 can be improved for higher sensor impedance
by allowing more time for acquisition. For example, 10µs of
acquisition time will approximately double sensor impedance
for the same ILE/DLE performance.
The input impedance and capacitance of the ADS7813 are
very stable with temperature. Assuming that this is true of the
sensor as well, the graph shown in Figure 10 will vary less
than a few percent over the ensured temperature range of the
ADS7813. If the sensor impedance varies significantly with
temperature, the worst-case impedance should be used.
DRIVING THE ADS7813 ANALOG INPUT
In general, any reasonably fast, high-quality operational or
instrumentation amplifier can be used to drive the ADS7813
input. When the converter enters the acquisition mode, there
is some charge injection from the converter input to the
amplifier output. This can result in inadequate settling time
with slower amplifiers. Be very careful with single-supply
amplifiers, particularly if their output will be required to
swing very close to the supply rails.
In addition, be careful in regards to the amplifier linearity. The
outputs of single-supply and rail-to-rail amplifiers can saturate as they approach the supply rails. Rather than the amplifier transfer function being a straight line, the curve can
become severely ‘S’ shaped. Also, watch for the point where
the amplifier switches from sourcing current to sinking current. For some amplifiers, the transfer function can be noticeably discontinuous at this point, causing a significant change
in the output voltage for a much smaller change on the input.
Texas Instruments manufactures a wide variety of operational
and instrumentation amplifiers that can be used to drive the
input of the ADS7813. These include the OPA627, OPA132,
and INA110.
REFERENCE
The ADS7813 can be operated with its internal 2.5V reference or an external reference. By applying an external reference voltage to the REF pin, the internal reference voltage is
overdriven. The voltage at the REF input is internally buffered
by a unity gain buffer. The output of this buffer is present at
the BUF and CAP pins.
REF
The REF pin is the output of the internal 2.5V reference or the
input for an external reference. A 1µF to 2.2µF tantulum
capacitor should be connected between this pin and ground.
The capacitor should be placed as close to the ADS7813 as
possible.
When using the internal reference, the REF pin should not be
connected to any type of significant load. An external load
will cause a voltage drop across the internal 4kΩ resistor that
is in series with the internal reference. Even a 40MΩ external
load to ground will cause a decrease in the full-scale range of
the converter by 6 LSBs.
LINEARITY ERROR vs SOURCE IMPEDANCE
10
9
Change in Worst-Case
Linearity Error (LSBs)
The input impedance results from the various connections and
the internal resistor values (refer to the block diagram on the
front page of this data sheet). The internal resistor values are
typical and can change by ±30%, due to process variations.
However, the ratio matching of the resistors is considerably
better than this. Thus, the input range will vary only a few
tenths of a percent from part to part, while the input impedance can vary up to ±30%.
The Specifications table contains the maximum limits for the
variation of the analog input range, but only for those ranges
where the comment field shows that the offset and gain are
specified (this includes all the ranges listed in Table I). For the
other ranges, the offset and gain are not tested and are not
specified.
Five of the input ranges in Table IV are not recommended for
general use. The upper-end of the –2.5V to +17.5V range and
+2.5V to +22.5V range exceed the absolute maximum analog
input voltage. These ranges can still be used as long as the
input voltage remains under the absolute maximum, but this
will moderately to significantly reduce the full-scale range of
the converter.

CAP
The CAP pin is used to compensate the internal reference
buffer. A 1µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.01µF
ceramic capacitor should be connected between this pin and
ground, with the ceramic capacitor placed as close to the
ADS7813 as possible. The total value of the capacitance on
the CAP pin is critical to optimum performance of the
ADS7813. A value larger than 2.0µF could overcompensate
the buffer while a value lower than 0.5µF may not provide
adequate compensation. The ESR (equivalent series resistance) of these compensation capacitors is also critical. Keep
the total ESR under 3Ω. See the Typical Characteristic curve,
|Worst-Case INL| vs ESR of Reference Buffer Compensation
Capacitor, for how the worst-case INL is affected by ESR.
BUF
The voltage on the BUF pin is the output of the internal
reference buffer. This pin is used to provide +2.5V to the
analog input or inputs for the various input configurations.
The BUF output can provide up to 1mA of current to an
external load. The load should be constant as a variable load
could affect the conversion result by modulating the BUF
voltage. Also note that the BUF output will show significant
glitches as each bit decision is made during a conversion.
Between conversions, the BUF output is quiet.
power-down mode, CONV is taken HIGH and then PWRD
is taken LOW. Note that a conversion will be initiated if
PWRD is taken HIGH while CONV is LOW.
While in the power-down mode, the voltage on the capacitors connected to CAP and REF will begin to leak off. The
voltage on the CAP capacitor leaks off much more rapidly
than on the REF capacitor (the REF input of the ADS7813
becomes high-impedance when PWRD is HIGH—this is not
true for the CAP input). When the power-down mode is
exited, these capacitors must be allowed to recharge and
settle to a 16-bit level. Figure 11 shows the amount of time
typically required to obtain a valid 16-bit result based on the
amount of time spent in power down (at room temperature).
This figure assumes that the total capacitance on the CAP
pin is 1.01µF.
Figure 12 provides a circuit which can significantly reduce
the power up time if the power down time will be fairly brief
(a few seconds or less). A low on-resistance MOSFET is
used to disconnect the capacitance on the CAP pin from the
leakage paths internal to the ADS7813. This allows the
capacitors to retain their charge for a much longer period of
time, reducing the time required to recharge them at power
up. With this circuit, the power-down time can be extended
to tens or hundreds of milliseconds with almost instantaneous power up.
POWER-DOWN TO POWER-UP RESPONSE
Power-Up Time to Rated Accuracy (µs)
The range for the external reference is 2.3V to 2.7V. The
voltage on REF determines the full-scale range of the converter and the corresponding LSB size. Increasing the reference voltage will increase the LSB size in relation to the
internal noise sources which, in turn, can improve signal-tonoise ratio. Likewise, decreasing the reference voltage will
reduce the LSB size and signal-to-noise ratio.
POWER DOWN
The ADS7813 has a power-down mode that is activated by
taking CONV LOW and then PWRD HIGH. This will
power down all of the analog circuitry including the reference, reducing power dissipation to under 50µW. To exit the

LAYOUT
For example, the timing diagram in Figure 2 shows that the
CONV signal should return HIGH sometime during time t2.
In fact, the CONV signal can return HIGH at any time
during the conversion. However, after time t2, the transition
of the CONV signal has the potential of creating a good deal
of noise on the ADS7813 die. If this transition occurs at just
precisely the wrong time, the conversion results could be
affected. In a similar manner, transitions on the DATACLK
input could affect the conversion result.
For the ADS7813, there are 16 separate bit decisions which
are made during the conversion. The most significant bit
decision is made first, proceeding to the least significant bit
at the end of the conversion. Each bit decision involves the
assumption that the bit being tested should be set. This is
combined with the result that has been achieved so far. The
converter compares this combined result with the actual
input voltage. If the combined result is too high, the bit is
cleared. If the result is equal to or lower than the actual input
voltage, the bit remains HIGH. This is why the basic
architecture is referred to as successive approximation
register (SAR).
If the result so far is getting very close to the actual input
voltage, then the comparison involves two voltages which are
very close together. The ADS7813 has been designed so that
the internal noise sources are at a minimum just prior to the
comparator result being latched. However, if an external
digital signal transitions at this time, a great deal of noise will
be coupled into the sensitive analog section of the ADS7813.
Even if this noise produces a difference between the two
voltages of only 2mV, the conversion result will be off by 52
counts or least significant bits (LSBs). (The internal LSB size
of the ADS7813 is 38µV regardless of the input range.)
Once a digital transition has caused the comparator to make
a wrong bit decision, the decision cannot be corrected
(unless some type of error correction is employed). All
subsequent bit decisions will then be wrong. Figure 13
shows a successive approximation process that has gone
wrong. The dashed line represents what the correct bit
decisions should have been. The solid line represents the
actual result of the conversion.
The ADS7813 should be treated as a precision analog
component and should reside completely on the analog
portion of the printed circuit board. Ideally, a ground plane
should extend underneath the ADS7813 and under all other
analog components. This plane should be separate from the
digital ground until they are joined at the power supply
connection. This will help prevent dynamic digital ground
currents from modulating the analog ground through a
common impedance to power ground.
The +5V power should be clean, well-regulated, and separate from the +5V power for the digital portion of the design.
One possibility is to derive the +5V supply from a linear
regulator located near the ADS7813. If derived from the
digital +5V power, a 5Ω to 10Ω resistor should be placed in
series with the power connection from the digital supply. It
may also be necessary to increase the bypass capacitance
near the VS pin (an additional 100µF or greater capacitor in
parallel with the 10µF and 0.1µF capacitors). For designs
with a large number of digital components or very high
speed digital logic, this simple power supply filtering scheme
may not be adequate.
SENSITIVITY TO EXTERNAL
DIGITAL SIGNALS
All successive approximation register-based A/D converters
are sensitive to external sources of noise. The reason for this
will be explained in the following paragraphs. For the
ADS7813 and similar A/D converters, this noise most often
originates due to the transition of external digital signals.
While digital signals that run near the converter can be the
source of the noise, the biggest problem occurs with the
digital inputs to the converter itself.
In many cases, the system designer may not be aware that
there is a problem or a potential for a problem. For a 12-bit
system, these problems typically occur at the least significant
bits and only at certain places in the converter’s transfer
function. For a 16-bit converter, the problem can be much
easier to spot.

Keep in mind that the time period when the comparator is
most sensitive to noise is fairly small. Also, the peak portion
of the noise event produced by a digital transition is fairly
brief, as most digital signals transition in a few nanoseconds.
The subsequent noise may last for a period of time longer
than this and may induce further effects which require a
longer settling time. However, in general, the event is over
within a few tens of nanoseconds.
For the ADS7813, error correction is done when the tenth bit
is decided. During this bit decision, it is possible to correct
limited errors that may have occurred during previous bit
decisions. However, after the tenth bit, no such correction is
possible. Note that for the timing diagrams shown in Figures
2, 5, 6, 7, and 8, all external digital signals should remain
static from 8µs after the start of a conversion until BUSY
rises. The tenth bit is decided approximately 10µs to 11µs
into the conversion.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TRANSITION NOISE
If a low-noise DC input is applied to the ADS7813 and
1,000 conversions are performed, the digital output of the
converter will vary slightly in output codes. This is true for
all 16-bit SAR converters. The Transition Noise specification found in the Electrical Characteristics section is a
statistical figure that represents the 1 sigma (σ) limit of these
output codes.
Using a histogram to plot the number of occurrences of each
output code, the distribution should appear bell-shaped with
the peak of the curve representing the nominal output code
for the given input voltage. The ±1σ, ±2σ, and ±3σ limits
around this nominal code should contain 68.3%, 95.5%, and
99.7%, respectively, of the conversion results. As a rough
approximation, multiplying transition noise by 6 (±3σ) will
yield the number of unique output codes which should be
present in 1,000 conversions.
The ADS7813 has a transition noise figure of 0.6LSB,
yielding approximately 4 different output codes for 1,000
conversions. However, since ±3σ is only 99.7%, up to three
conversions have some chance of being outside this range.
In addition, the differential linearity error of each code and
the quantization performed by the converter result in histograms which can deviate from the ideal. Figure 14 shows a
histogram of 5,000 conversions from the ADS7813.
AVERAGING
The noise of the converter can be reduced by averaging
conversion results. The noise will be reduced by a factor of
1/√n, where n is the number of averages. For example,
averaging four conversions will reduce transition noise by
half, to 0.3LSBs. Averaging should only be used for lowfrequency signals.
For higher frequency signals, a digital filter can be used to
reduce noise. This works in a similar manner to averaging:
for every reduction in the signal bandwidth by two, the
signal-to-noise ratio will improve by 3dB.
QSPI INTERFACING
Figure 15 shows a simple interface between the ADS7813
and any queued serial peripheral interface (QSPI) equipped
microcontroller (available on several Motorola devices).
This interface assumes that the convert pulse does not
originate from the microcontroller and that the ADS7813 is
the only serial peripheral.

Before enabling the QSPI interface, the microcontroller
must be configured to monitor the slave select (SS) line.
When a LOW to HIGH transition occurs (indicating the end
of a conversion), the port can be enabled. If this is not done,
the microcontroller and A/D converter may not be properly
synchronized. (The slave select line simply enables communication—it does not indicate the start or end of a serial
transfer.)

Figure 16 shows a QSPI-equipped microcontroller interfacing to three ADS7813s. There are many possible variations
to this interface scheme. As shown, the QSPI port produces
a common CONV signal which initiates a conversion on all
three converters. After the conversions are finished, each
result is transferred in turn. The QSPI port is completely
programmable to handle the timing and transfers without
processor intervention. If the CONV signal is generated in
this way, it should be possible to make both AC and DC
measurements with the ADS7813, as the CONV signal will
have low jitter. Note that if the CONV signal is generated via
software commands, it will have a good deal of jitter and
only low frequency (DC) measurements can be made.

SPI INTERFACING
The serial peripheral interface (SPI) is directly related to the
QSPI and both Figures 15 and 16 can be used as a guide for
connecting the ADS7813 to SPI-equipped microcontrollers.
For most microcontrollers, the SPI port is capable of 8-bit
transfers only. In the case of Figure 15, be aware that the
microcontroller may have to be capable of fetching the 8
most significant bits before they are overwritten by the 8
least significant bits.
DSP56002 INTERFACING
The DSP56002 serial interface has an SPI compatibility
mode with some enhancements. Figure 17 shows an interface between the ADS7813 and the DSP56002. As with the
QSPI interface of Figure 15, the DSP56002 must be programmed to enable the serial interface when a LOW to
HIGH transition on SCI occurs.
The DSP56002 can also provide the CONV signal, as shown
in Figure 18. The receive and transmit sections of the
interface are decoupled (asynchronous mode) and the transmit section is set to generate a word length frame sync every
other transmit frame (frame rate divider set to 2). The
prescale modulus should be set to produce a transmit frame
at twice the desired conversion rate.
