Note 2: Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is functional. These ratings do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions. Note 3: All voltages are measured with respect to GND = 0 VDC, unless otherwise specified. Note 4: When the input voltage VIN at any pin exceeds the power supplies (VIN < GND or VIN > VCC) the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA. The 20 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 5 mA to four pins. Note 5: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, JA and the ambient temperature, T A. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any temperature is P D = (TJMAX - TA)/JA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower.

This voltage is the system power supply. This technique relaxes the stability requirements of the system reference as the analog input and A/D reference move together maintaining the same output code for a given input condition. Since there is no separate reference and analog supply pins, the analog side is very sensitive. The PC layout of the ADCV0831 is very critical. The ADCV0831 should be used with an analog ground plane and single-point grounding techniques. The Gnd pin should be tied directly to the ground plane. One supply bypass capacitor (0.1 F) is recommended to decouple all the digital signals on the supplies. The lead length of the capacitor should be as short as possible. The analog input voltage can range from 50mV below ground to 50mV above VCC without degrading conversion accuracy. The ADCV0831 is intended to work with a CPU which strobes data on the clock's rising edge. The ADCV0831 strobes data on the clock's falling edge so that the data output is stable when the CPU reads it in. When the Chip Select pin is high, the output is TRI-STATE and the ADCV0831 is in shutdown mode and draws less than 30 A of current. During shutdown the digital logic draws no current at CMOS logic levels, and the analog circuitry is turned off. When the Chip Select pin goes low, all the analog circuitry turns on, and the conversion process begins. 3.0 THE ANALOG INPUT The most important feature of this converter is that it can be located right at the analog signal source through just a few wires. It can communicate with a processor with a highly noise immune serial bit stream. This greatly minimizes circuitry to maintain analog signal accuracy which otherwise is most susceptible to noise pickup. However, a few words are in order with regard to the analog inputs should the input be noisy to begin with or possibly riding on a large common-mode voltage. The input has a sample and hold, therefore a capacitor (0.01 F) is needed at the input pin in order to swamp out any feedthrough signal coming from the sample and hold circuitry. The input capacitor lead length is not as critical as the supply decoupling capacitor, as long as the capacitor is large enough to swamp out any sample and hold feedthrough. Source resistance limitation is important with regard to the DC leakage currents of the input multiplexer. Bypass capacitors should not be used if the source resistance is greater than 1k. The worst-case leakage current of 1A over temperature will create a 1mV input error with a 1k source resistance. An op-amp RC active low pass filter can provide both impedance buffering and noise filtering should a high impedance signal source be required. 1.0 THE DIGITAL INTERFACE The most important characteristic of this converter is the serial data link with the controlling processor. Using a serial communication format offers three very significant system improvements. It allows many functions to be included in a small package, it can eliminate the transmission of low level analog signals by locating the converter right at the analog sensor, and can transmit highly noise immune digital data back to the host processor. To understand the operation of this converter it is best to refer to the Timing Diagrams and to follow a complete conversion sequence. 1. A conversion is initiated by pulling the CS (chip select) line low. This line must be held low for the entire conversion. 2. During the conversion the output of the SAR comparator indicates whether the analog input is greater than (high) or less than (low) a series of successive voltages in a resistor ladder (last 8 bits). After each comparison the comparator's output is shifted to the DO line on the falling edge of CLK. This data is the result of the conversion being shifted out (with the MSB first) and can be read by the processor immediately. 3. After 11 clock periods the conversion is completed. 4. All internal registers are cleared when the CS line is high. See Data Input Timing under Timing Diagrams. If another conversion is desired CS must make a high to low transition. DS100104-59 Recommended Power Supply Bypassing www.national.com 6 The ADCV0831 is ideal for applications operating with ratiometric transducers. The ADCV0831 can measure the signal produced by the transducer and produce a corresponding code to the microprocessor. The microprocessor can then control the system producing the signal. Operating with Ratiometric Transducers DS100104-63 The ADCV0831 can be used in low-cost remote temperature sensor system. For a temperature sensor, the LM60 is an excellent companion to the ADCV0831, since it can operate off 3V supply. The LM60 linear scale factor is 6.25mV/C. Therefore, the ADCV0831 can digitize a couple of degrees change in temperature and provide the output to the microprocessor, which in turn can adjust the system environment. For higher accuracy, a low-offset op-amp can be used to gain up the LM60 output. Low-Cost Remote Temperature Sensor DS100104-60 7 www.national.com ADCV0831 Applications ADCV0831 Applications (Continued) When the input of the ADCV0831 is driven by an op-amp operating at a supply voltage greater than 5V, it is a good idea to protect the input of the ADCV0831 from exceeding the supply voltage. Two diodes can be added to the input one to supply and one to the ground pin. Protecting the input DS100104-64 Note: Diodes are IN914 This circuit utilizes the LM385 reference to detect the power supply voltage level. When the supply voltage is 3V, the LSB = 3/256 = 11.7mV. Since the LM385 reference sets the input to 1.2V. The output code is 102. As the supply voltage decreases, the LSB decreases and the output code increases. When the supply voltage reaches 2.7V, the LSB = 10.5 mV. The input voltage is still at 1.2V, and the output code is 114. If the supply voltage increases, the LSB increases and the output code decreases. When the supply voltage reaches 3.3V, the LSB = 12.9mV and the output code is 93.
