GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD76061/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are 16-bit, simultaneous
sampling, analog-to-digital data acquisition systems (DAS) with
eight, six, and four channels, respectively. Each part contains
analog input clamp protection, a second-order antialiasing filter,
a track-and-hold amplifier, a 16-bit charge redistribution successive
approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a flexible
digital filter, a 2.5 V reference and reference buffer, and high
speed serial and parallel interfaces.
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 operate from a single 5 V
supply and can accommodate ±10 V and ±5 V true bipolar input
signals while sampling at throughput rates up to 200 kSPS for
all channels. The input clamp protection circuitry can tolerate
voltages up to ±16.5 V. The AD7606 has 1 MΩ analog input
impedance regardless of sampling frequency. The single supply
operation, on-chip filtering, and high input impedance eliminate
the need for driver op amps and external bipolar supplies. The
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 antialiasing filter has a 3 dB cutoff
frequency of 22 kHz and provides 40 dB antialias rejection when
sampling at 200 kSPS. The flexible digital filter is pin driven, yields
improvements in SNR, and reduces the 3 dB bandwidth.

1 Temperature range for the B version is −40°C to +85°C. The AD7606 is operational up to 125°C with throughput rates ≤ 160 kSPS, and the SNR typically reduces by
0.7 dB at 125°C.
2 See the Terminology section.
3 This specification applies when reading during a conversion or after a conversion. If reading during a conversion in parallel mode with VDRIVE = 5 V, SNR typically reduces by 1.5 dB
and THD by 3 dB.
4 LSB means least significant bit. With ±5 V input range, 1 LSB = 152.58 µV. With ±10 V input range, 1 LSB = 305.175 µV.
5 These specifications include the full temperature range variation and contribution from the internal reference buffer but do not include the error contribution from
the external reference.
6 Bipolar zero code error is calculated with respect to the analog input voltage. See the Analog Input Clamp Protection section.
7 Sample tested during initial release to ensure compliance.

1 Sample tested during initial release to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 5 ns (10% to 90% of VDRIVE) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.
2 In oversampling mode, typical tCONV for the AD7606-6 and AD7606-4 can be calculated using ((N × tCONV) + ((N − 1) × 1 µs)). N is the oversampling ratio. For the AD7606-6,
tCONV = 3 µs; and for the AD7606-4, tCONV = 2 µs.
3 The delay between the CONVST x signals was measured as the maximum time allowed while ensuring a <10 LSB performance matching between channel sets.
4 A buffer is used on the data output pins for these measurements, which is equivalent to a load of 20 pF on the output pins.

P AVCC AVCC AVCC Analog Supply Voltage, 4.75 V to 5.25 V. This supply voltage is applied to
the internal front-end amplifiers and to the ADC core. These supply pins
should be decoupled to AGND.
2, 26, 35,

P AGND AGND AGND Analog Ground. These pins are the ground reference points for all analog
circuitry on the AD7606. All analog input signals and external reference
signals should be referred to these pins. All six of these AGND pins should
connect to the AGND plane of a system.
5, 4, 3 DI OS [2:0] OS [2:0] OS [2:0] Oversampling Mode Pins. Logic inputs. These inputs are used to select the
oversampling ratio. OS 2 is the MSB control bit, and OS 0 is the LSB control
bit. See the Digital Filter section for more details about the oversampling
mode of operation and Table 9 for oversampling bit decoding.

BYTE SEL
Parallel/Serial/Byte Interface Selection Input. Logic input. If this pin is tied to
a logic low, the parallel interface is selected. If this pin is tied to a logic high,
the serial interface is selected. Parallel byte interface mode is selected when
this pin is logic high and DB15/BYTE SEL is logic high (see Table 8).
In serial mode, the RD/SCLK pin functions as the serial clock input. The
DB7/DOUTA pin and the DB8/DOUTB pin function as serial data outputs. When
the serial interface is selected, the DB[15:9] and DB[6:0] pins should be tied to
ground.
In byte mode, DB15, in conjunction with PAR/SER/BYTE SEL, is used to select
the parallel byte mode of operation (see Table 8). DB14 is used as the HBEN
pin. DB[7:0] transfer the 16-bit conversion results in two RD operations,
with DB0 as the LSB of the data transfers.
7 DI STBY STBY STBY Standby Mode Input. This pin is used to place the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 into one of two power-down modes: standby mode or shutdown
mode. The power-down mode entered depends on the state of the RANGE
pin, as shown in Table 7. When in standby mode, all circuitry, except the on-
chip reference, regulators, and regulator buffers, is powered down. When
in shutdown mode, all circuitry is powered down.

8 DI RANGE RANGE RANGE Analog Input Range Selection. Logic input. The polarity on this pin deter-
mines the input range of the analog input channels. If this pin is tied to a
logic high, the analog input range is ±10 V for all channels. If this pin is tied to
a logic low, the analog input range is ±5 V for all channels. A logic change
on this pin has an immediate effect on the analog input range. Changing
this pin during a conversion is not recommended for fast throughput rate
applications. See the Analog Input section for more information.
9, 10 DI CONVST A,
CONVST B
CONVST A,
CONVST B
CONVST A,
CONVST B
Conversion Start Input A, Conversion Start Input B. Logic inputs. These
logic inputs are used to initiate conversions on the analog input channels.
For simultaneous sampling of all input channels, CONVST A and CONVST B
can be shorted together, and a single convert start signal can be applied.
Alternatively, CONVST A can be used to initiate simultaneous sampling: V1,
V2, V3, and V4 for the AD7606; V1, V2, and V3 for the AD7606-6; and V1
and V2 for the AD7606-4. CONVST B can be used to initiate simultaneous
sampling on the other analog inputs: V5, V6, V7, and V8 for the AD7606;
V4, V5, and V6 for the AD7606-6; and V3 and V4 for the AD7606-4. This is
possible only when oversampling is not switched on. When the CONVST A or
CONVST B pin transitions from low to high, the front-end track-and-hold
circuitry for the respective analog inputs is set to hold.
11 DI RESET RESET RESET Reset Input. When set to logic high, the rising edge of RESET resets the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4. The part should receive a RESET pulse after
power-up. The RESET high pulse should typically be 50 ns wide. If a RESET
pulse is applied during a conversion, the conversion is aborted. If a RESET
pulse is applied during a read, the contents of the output registers reset
to all zeros.
12 DI RD/SCLK RD/SCLK RD/SCLK Parallel Data Read Control Input When the Parallel Interface Is Selected (RD)/
Serial Clock Input When the Serial Interface Is Selected (SCLK). When both
CS and RD are logic low in parallel mode, the output bus is enabled.
In serial mode, this pin acts as the serial clock input for data transfers.
The CS falling edge takes the DOUTA and DOUTB data output lines out
of three-state and clocks out the MSB of the conversion result. The rising
edge of SCLK clocks all subsequent data bits onto the DOUTA and DOUTB
serial data outputs. For more information, see the Conversion Control
section.
13 DI CS CS CS Chip Select. This active low logic input frames the data transfer. When
both CS and RD are logic low in parallel mode, the DB[15:0] output bus is
enabled and the conversion result is output on the parallel data bus lines.
In serial mode, CS is used to frame the serial read transfer and clock out
the MSB of the serial output data.
14 DO BUSY BUSY BUSY Busy Output. This pin transitions to a logic high after both CONVST A and
CONVST B rising edges and indicates that the conversion process has started.
The BUSY output remains high until the conversion process for all channels
is complete. The falling edge of BUSY signals that the conversion data is
being latched into the output data registers and is available to read after
a Time t4. Any data read while BUSY is high must be completed before the
falling edge of BUSY occurs. Rising edges on CONVST A or CONVST B have
no effect while the BUSY signal is high.
15 DO FRSTDATA FRSTDATA FRSTDATA Digital Output. The FRSTDATA output signal indicates when the first channel,
V1, is being read back on the parallel, byte, or serial interface. When the
CS input is high, the FRSTDATA output pin is in three-state. The falling
edge of CS takes FRSTDATA out of three-state. In parallel mode, the falling
edge of RD corresponding to the result of V1 then sets the FRSTDATA pin
high, indicating that the result from V1 is available on the output data bus.
The FRSTDATA output returns to a logic low following the next falling edge
of RD. In serial mode, FRSTDATA goes high on the falling edge of CS because
this clocks out the MSB of V1 on DOUTA. It returns low on the 16th SCLK
falling edge after the CS falling edge. See the Conversion Control section
for more details.

When PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 1, these pins should be tied to AGND. When
operating in parallel byte interface mode, DB[7:0] outputs the 16-bit con-
version result in two RD operations. DB7 (Pin 24) is the MSB; DB0 is the LSB.
23 P VDRIVE VDRIVE VDRIVE Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage (2.3 V to 5.25 V) supplied at this pin

result. When PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 1 and DB15/BYTE SEL = 1, the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 operate in parallel byte interface mode. In parallel
byte mode, the HBEN pin is used to select whether the most significant byte
(MSB) or the least significant byte (LSB) of the conversion result is output first.
When HBEN = 1, the MSB is output first, followed by the LSB.
When HBEN = 0, the LSB is output first, followed by the MSB.

select between serial interface mode and parallel byte interface mode
(see Table 8). When PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 1 and DB15/BYTE SEL = 0, the

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity
The maximum deviation from a straight line passing through
the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The endpoints of
the transfer function are zero scale, at ½ LSB below the first
code transition; and full scale, at ½ LSB above the last code
transition.
Differential Nonlinearity
The difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
Bipolar Zero Code Error
The deviation of the midscale transition (all 1s to all 0s) from
the ideal, which is 0 V − ½ LSB.
Bipolar Zero Code Error Match
The absolute difference in bipolar zero code error between any
two input channels.
Positive Full-Scale Error
The deviation of the actual last code transition from the ideal
last code transition (10 V − 1½ LSB (9.99954) and 5 V − 1½ LSB
(4.99977)) after bipolar zero code error is adjusted out. The
positive full-scale error includes the contribution from the
internal reference buffer.
Positive Full-Scale Error Match
The absolute difference in positive full-scale error between any
two input channels.
Negative Full-Scale Error
The deviation of the first code transition from the ideal first
code transition (−10 V + ½ LSB (−9.99984) and −5 V + ½ LSB
(−4.99992)) after the bipolar zero code error is adjusted out.
The negative full-scale error includes the contribution from the
internal reference buffer.
Negative Full-Scale Error Match
The absolute difference in negative full-scale error between any
two input channels.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio
The measured ratio of signal-to-(noise + distortion) at the
output of the ADC. The signal is the rms amplitude of the
fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals
up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2, excluding dc).
The ratio depends on the number of quantization levels in
the digitization process: the more levels, the smaller the
quantization noise.
The theoretical signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio for an ideal
N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) = (6.02 N + 1.76) dB
Thus, for a 16-bit converter, the signal-to-(noise + distortion)
is 98 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The ratio of the rms sum of the harmonics to the fundamental.
For the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4, it is defined as
THD (dB) =
20log
1
6
54
32
V
VVVVVVVV 2
9
2
8
2
7
22222
where:
V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental.
V2 to V9 are the rms amplitudes of the second through ninth
harmonics.
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
The ratio of the rms value of the next largest component in the
ADC output spectrum (up to fS/2, excluding dc) to the rms value
of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for
ADCs where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is
determined by a noise peak.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb,
any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion products
at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where m, n = 0,
1, 2, 3. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for which
neither m nor n is equal to 0. For example, the second-order
terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − ), and the third-order terms
include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa − 2).
The calculation of the intermodulation distortion is per the
THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms sum of the
individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of the sum
of the fundamentals expressed in decibels (dB).
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
Variations in power supply affect the full-scale transition but not
the converter’s linearity. PSR is the maximum change in full-
scale transition point due to a change in power supply voltage
from the nominal value. The PSR ratio (PSRR) is defined as the
ratio of the power in the ADC output at full-scale frequency, f,
to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave applied to the ADC’s
VDD and VSS supplies of Frequency fS.
PSRR (dB) = 10 log (Pf/PfS)
where:
Pf is equal to the power at Frequency f in the ADC output.
PfS is equal to the power at Frequency fS coupled onto the AVCC
supply.
Channel-to-Channel Isolation
Channel-to-channel isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk
between all input channels. It is measured by applying a full-scale
sine wave signal, up to 160 kHz, to all unselected input channels
and then determining the degree to which the signal attenuates
in the selected channel with a 1 kHz sine wave signal applied (see
Figure 28).

THEORY OF OPERATION
CONVERTER DETAILS
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are data acquisition systems
that employ a high speed, low power, charge redistribution,
successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
and allow the simultaneous sampling of eight/six/four analog input
channels. The analog inputs on the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
can accept true bipolar input signals. The RANGE pin is used to
select either ±10 V or ±5 V as the input range. The AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 operate from a single 5 V supply.
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 contain input clamp
protection, input signal scaling amplifiers, a second-order anti-
aliasing filter, track-and-hold amplifiers, an on-chip reference,
reference buffers, a high speed ADC, a digital filter, and high
speed parallel and serial interfaces. Sampling on the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 is controlled using the CONVST signals.
ANALOG INPUT
Analog Input Ranges
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 can handle true bipolar,
single-ended input voltages. The logic level on the RANGE pin
determines the analog input range of all analog input channels.
If this pin is tied to a logic high, the analog input range is ±10 V
for all channels. If this pin is tied to a logic low, the analog input
range is ±5 V for all channels. A logic change on this pin has an
immediate effect on the analog input range; however, there is
typically a settling time of approximately 80 µs, in addition to
the normal acquisition time requirement. The recommended
practice is to hardwire the RANGE pin according to the desired
input range for the system signals.
During normal operation, the applied analog input voltage
should remain within the analog input range selected via the
RANGE pin. A RESET pulse must be applied after power up to
ensure the analog input channels are configured for the range
selected.
When in a power-down mode, it is recommended to tie the
analog inputs to GND. Per the Analog Input Clamp Protection
section, the overvoltage clamp protection is recommended for
use in transient overvoltage conditions and should not remain
active for extended periods. Stressing the analog inputs outside
of the conditions mentioned here may degrade the bipolar zero
code error and THD performance of the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4.
Analog Input Impedance
The analog input impedance of the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 is 1 MΩ. This is a fixed input impedance that does
not vary with the AD7606 sampling frequency. This high analog
input impedance eliminates the need for a driver amplifier in
front of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4, allowing for direct
connection to the source or sensor. With the need for a driver
amplifier eliminated, bipolar supplies (which are often a source
of noise in a system) can be removed from the signal chain.
Analog Input Clamp Protection
Figure 34 shows the analog input structure of the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4. Each analog input of the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 contains clamp protection circuitry.
Despite single 5 V supply operation, this analog input clamp
protection allows for an input over voltage of up to ±16.5 V.

Figure 35. Input Protection Clamp Profile
A series resistor should be placed on the analog input channels
to limit the current to ±10 mA for input voltages above ±16.5 V.
In an application where there is a series resistance on an analog
input channel, Vx, a corresponding resistance is required on the
analog input GND channel, VxGND (see Figure 36). If there is
no corresponding resistor on the VxGND channel, an offset
error occurs on that channel. It is recommended that the input
overvoltage clamp protection circuitry be used to protect the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 against transient overvoltage
events. It is not recommended to leave the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 in a condition where the clamp protection circuitry
is active in normal or power-down conditions for extended
periods because this may degrade the bipolar zero code error
performance of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4.

Track-and-Hold Amplifiers
The track-and-hold amplifiers on the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 allow the ADC to accurately acquire an input sine wave
of full-scale amplitude to 16-bit resolution. The track-and-hold
amplifiers sample their respective inputs simultaneously on the
rising edge of CONVST x. The aperture time for the track-and-
hold (that is, the delay time between the external CONVST x
signal and the track-and-hold actually going into hold) is well
matched, by design, across all eight track-and-holds on one
device and from device to device. This matching allows more
than one AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 device to be sampled
simultaneously in a system.
The end of the conversion process across all eight channels is
indicated by the falling edge of BUSY; and it is at this point that the
track-and-holds return to track mode, and the acquisition time
for the next set of conversions begins.
The conversion clock for the part is internally generated, and
the conversion time for all channels is 4 μs on the AD7606,
3 μs on the AD7606-6, and 2 μs on the AD7606-4. On the AD7606,
the BUSY signal returns low after all eight conversions to indicate
the end of the conversion process. On the falling edge of BUSY,
the track-and-hold amplifiers return to track mode. New data
can be read from the output register via the parallel, parallel
byte, or serial interface after BUSY goes low; or, alternatively,
data from the previous conversion can be read while BUSY is
high. Reading data from the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
while a conversion is in progress has little effect on performance
and allows a faster throughput to be achieved. In parallel mode
at VDRIVE > 3.3 V, the SNR is reduced by ~1.5 dB when reading
during a conversion.
ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION
The output coding of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 is
twos complement. The designed code transitions occur midway
between successive integer LSB values, that is, 1/2 LSB and 3/2 LSB.
The LSB size is FSR/65,536 for the AD7606. The ideal transfer
characteristic for the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 is shown
in Figure 39.

INTERNAL/EXTERNAL REFERENCE
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 contain an on-chip 2.5 V
band gap reference. The REFIN/REFOUT pin allows access to
the 2.5 V reference that generates the on-chip 4.5 V reference
internally, or it allows an external reference of 2.5 V to be applied
to the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4. An externally applied
reference of 2.5 V is also gained up to 4.5 V, using the internal
buffer. This 4.5 V buffered reference is the reference used by the
SAR ADC.
The REF SELECT pin is a logic input pin that allows the user to
select between the internal reference and an external reference.
If this pin is set to logic high, the internal reference is selected
and enabled. If this pin is set to logic low, the internal reference
is disabled and an external reference voltage must be applied
to the REFIN/REFOUT pin. The internal reference buffer is
always enabled. After a reset, the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
operate in the reference mode selected by the REF SELECT pin.
Decoupling is required on the REFIN/REFOUT pin for both
the internal and external reference options. A 10 µF ceramic
capacitor is required on the REFIN/REFOUT pin.
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 contain a reference buffer
configured to gain the REF voltage up to ~4.5 V, as shown in
Figure 40. The REFCAPA and REFCAPB pins must be shorted
together externally, and a ceramic capacitor of 10 μF applied to
REFGND, to ensure that the reference buffer is in closed-loop
operation. The reference voltage available at the REFIN/REFOUT
pin is 2.5 V.
When the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are configured in
external reference mode, the REFIN/REFOUT pin is a high
input impedance pin. For applications using multiple AD7606
devices, the following configurations are recommended,
depending on the application requirements.
External Reference Mode
One ADR421 external reference can be used to drive the
REFIN/REFOUT pins of all AD7606 devices (see Figure 41).
In this configuration, each REFIN/REFOUT pin of the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 should be decoupled with at
least a 100 nF decoupling capacitor.
Internal Reference Mode
One AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 device, configured to operate
in the internal reference mode, can be used to drive the remaining
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 devices, which are configured to
operate in external reference mode (see Figure 42). The REFIN/
REFOUT pin of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4, configured
in internal reference mode, should be decoupled using a 10 µF
ceramic decoupling capacitor. The other AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 devices, configured in external reference mode,
should use at least a 100 nF decoupling capacitor on their
REFIN/REFOUT pins.

TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM
Figure 43 shows the typical connection diagram for the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4. There are four AVCC supply pins on the
part, and each of the four pins should be decoupled using a 100 nF
capacitor at each supply pin and a 10 µF capacitor at the supply
source. The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 can operate with the
internal reference or an externally applied reference. In this
configuration, the AD7606 is configured to operate with the
internal reference. When using a single AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 device on the board, the REFIN/REFOUT pin
should be decoupled with a 10 µF capacitor. Refer to the
Internal/External Reference section when using an application
with multiple AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 devices. The
REFCAPA and REFCAPB pins are shorted together and
decoupled with a 10 µF ceramic capacitor.
The VDRIVE supply is connected to the same supply as the
processor. The VDRIVE voltage controls the voltage value of the
output logic signals. For layout, decoupling, and grounding
hints, see the Layout Guidelines section.
After supplies are applied to the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4,
a reset should be applied to the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
to ensure that it is configured for the correct mode of operation.
POWER-DOWN MODES
Two power-down modes are available on the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4: standby mode and shutdown mode. The STBY pin
controls whether the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are in
normal mode or in one of the two power-down modes.
The power-down mode is selected through the state of the
RANGE pin when the STBY pin is low. Table 7 shows the
configurations required to choose the desired power-down mode.
When the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are placed in standby
mode, the current consumption is 8 mA maximum and power-
up time is approximately 100 µs because the capacitor on the
REFCAPA and REFCAPB pins must charge up. In standby mode,
the on-chip reference and regulators remain powered up, and
the amplifiers and ADC core are powered down.
When the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are placed in shutdown
mode, the current consumption is 6 µA maximum and power-up
time is approximately 13 ms (external reference mode). In shut-
down mode, all circuitry is powered down. When the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are powered up from shutdown mode,
a RESET signal must be applied to the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 after the required power-up time has elapsed.

CONVERSION CONTROL
Simultaneous Sampling on All Analog Input Channels
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 allow simultaneous sampling
of all analog input channels. All channels are sampled simul-
taneously when both CONVST pins (CONVST A, CONVST B)
are tied together. A single CONVST signal is used to control both
CONVST x inputs. The rising edge of this common CONVST
signal initiates simultaneous sampling on all analog input channels
(V1 to V8 for the AD7606, V1 to V6 for the AD7606-6, and V1
to V4 for the AD7606-4).
The AD7606 contains an on-chip oscillator that is used to
perform the conversions. The conversion time for all ADC
channels is tCONV. The BUSY signal indicates to the user when
conversions are in progress, so when the rising edge of CONVST
is applied, BUSY goes logic high and transitions low at the end
of the entire conversion process. The falling edge of the BUSY
signal is used to place all eight track-and-hold amplifiers back
into track mode. The falling edge of BUSY also indicates that
the new data can now be read from the parallel bus (DB[15:0]),
the DOUTA and DOUTB serial data lines, or the parallel byte bus,
DB[7:0].
Simultaneously Sampling Two Sets of Channels
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 also allow the analog input
channels to be sampled simultaneously in two sets. This can be
used in power-line protection and measurement systems to
compensate for phase differences introduced by PT and CT
transformers. In a 50 Hz system, this allows for up to 9° of phase
compensation; and in a 60 Hz system, it allows for up to 10° of
phase compensation.
This is accomplished by pulsing the two CONVST pins
independently and is possible only if oversampling is not in use.
CONVST A is used to initiate simultaneous sampling of the
first set of channels (V1 to V4 for the AD7606, V1 to V3 for the
AD7606-6, and V1 and V2 for the AD7606-4); and CONVST B
is used to initiate simultaneous sampling on the second set of
analog input channels (V5 to V8 for the AD7606, V4 to V6 for
the AD7606-6, and V3 and V4 for the AD7606-4), as illustrated
in Figure 44. On the rising edge of CONVST A, the track-and-
hold amplifiers for the first set of channels are placed into hold
mode. On the rising edge of CONVST B, the track-and-hold
amplifiers for the second set of channels are placed into hold
mode. The conversion process begins once both rising edges
of CONVST x have occurred; therefore BUSY goes high on the
rising edge of the later CONVST x signal. In Table 3, Time t5
indicates the maximum allowable time between CONVST x
sampling points.
There is no change to the data read process when using two
separate CONVST x signals.
Connect all unused analog input channels to AGND. The results
for any unused channels are still included in the data read because
all channels are always converted.

DIGITAL INTERFACE
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 provide three interface
options: a parallel interface, a high speed serial interface, and
a parallel byte interface. The required interface mode is selected
via the PAR /SER/BYTE SEL and DB15/BYTE SEL pins.
Table 8. Interface Mode Selection
PAR/SER/BYTE SEL DB15 Interface Mode
0 0 Parallel interface mode
1 0 Serial interface mode
1 1 Parallel byte interface mode
Operation of the interface modes is discussed in the following
sections.
PARALLEL INTERFACE (PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 0)
Data can be read from the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 via
the parallel data bus with standard CS and RD signals. To read the
data over the parallel bus, the PAR/SER/BYTE SEL pin should
be tied low. The CS and RD input signals are internally gated to
enable the conversion result onto the data bus. The data lines,
DB15 to DB0, leave their high impedance state when both CS
and RD are logic low.

Figure 45. AD7606 Interface DiagramOne AD7606 Using the Parallel Bus,
with CS and RD Shorted Together
The rising edge of the CS input signal three-states the bus, and
the falling edge of the CS input signal takes the bus out of the
high impedance state. CS is the control signal that enables the
data lines; it is the function that allows multiple AD7606/
AD7606-6/ AD7606-4 devices to share the same parallel
data bus.
The CS signal can be permanently tied low, and the RD signal
can be used to access the conversion results as shown in Figure 4.
A read operation of new data can take place after the BUSY
signal goes low (see Figure 2); or, alternatively, a read operation
of data from the previous conversion process can take place
while BUSY is high (see Figure 3).
The RD pin is used to read data from the output conversion
results register. Applying a sequence of RD pulses to the RD pin
of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 clocks the conversion
results out from each channel onto the Parallel Bus DB[15:0] in
ascending order. The first RD falling edge after BUSY goes low
clocks out the conversion result from Channel V1. The next RD
falling edge updates the bus with the V2 conversion result, and so
on. On the AD7606, the eighth falling edge of RD clocks out the
conversion result for Channel V8.
When the RD signal is logic low, it enables the data conversion
result from each channel to be transferred to the digital host
(DSP, FPGA).
When there is only one AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 in
a system/board and it does not share the parallel bus, data can
be read using just one control signal from the digital host. The
CS and RD signals can be tied together, as shown in Figure 5.
In this case, the data bus comes out of three-state on the falling
edge of CS/RD. The combined CS and RD signal allows the data
to be clocked out of the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 and to
be read by the digital host. In this case, CS is used to frame the
data transfer of each data channel.
PARALLEL BYTE (PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 1, DB15 = 1)
Parallel byte interface mode operates much like the parallel
interface mode, except that each channel conversion result is read
out in two 8-bit transfers. Therefore, 16 RD pulses are required
to read all eight conversion results from the AD7606. For the
AD7606-6, 12 RD pulses are required; and on the AD7606-4,
eight RD pulses are required to read all the channel results.
To configure the AD7606/AD76706-6/AD7606-4 to operate in
parallel byte mode, the PAR/SER/BYTE SEL and BYTE SEL/
DB15 pins should be tied to logic high (see Table 8). In parallel
byte mode, DB[7:0] are used to transfer the data to the digital
host. DB0 is the LSB of the data transfer, and DB7 is the MSB of
the data transfer. In parallel byte mode, DB14 acts as an HBEN
pin. When DB14/HBEN is tied to logic high, the most
significant byte (MSB) of the conversion result is output first,
followed by the LSB of the conversion result. When DB14 is tied
to logic low, the LSB of the conversion result is output first,
followed by the MSB of the conversion result. The FRSTDATA
pin remains high until the entire 16 bits of the conversion result
from V1 are read from the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4.
SERIAL INTERFACE (PAR/SER/BYTE SEL = 1)
To read data back from the AD7606 over the serial interface, the
PAR/SER/BYTE SEL pin must be tied high. The CS and SCLK
signals are used to transfer data from the AD7606. The AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 have two serial data output pins, DOUTA
and DOUTB. Data can be read back from the AD7606/AD76706-
6/AD7606-4 using one or both of these DOUT lines. For the
AD7606, conversion results from Channel V1 to Channel V4
first appear on DOUTA, and conversion results from Channel V5
to Channel V8 first appear on DOUTB. For the AD7606-6,
conversion results from Channel V1 to Channel V3 first appear
on DOUTA, and conversion results from Channel V4 to Channel
V6 first appear on DOUTB. For the AD7606-4, conversion results
from Channel V1 and Channel V2 first appear on DOUTA, and
conversion results from Channels V3 and Channel V4 first
appear on DOUTB.
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 Data Sheet
Rev. C | Page 28 of 36
The CS falling edge takes the data output lines, DOUTA and DOUTB,
out of three-state and clocks out the MSB of the conversion
result. The rising edge of SCLK clocks all subsequent data bits
onto the serial data outputs, DOUTA and DOUTB. The CS input
can be held low for the entire serial read operation, or it can be
pulsed to frame each channel read of 16 SCLK cycles. Figure 46
shows a read of eight simultaneous conversion results using two
DOUT lines on the AD7606. In this case, a 64 SCLK transfer is used
to access data from the AD7606, and CS is held low to frame the
entire 64 SCLK cycles. Data can also be clocked out using just
one DOUT line, in which case it is recommended that DOUTA be
used to access all conversion data because the channel data is
output in ascending order. For the AD7606 to access all eight
conversion results on one DOUT line, a total of 128 SCLK cycles
is required. These 128 SCLK cycles can be framed by one CS
signal, or each group of 16 SCLK cycles can be individually
framed by the CS signal. The disadvantage of using just one
DOUT line is that the throughput rate is reduced if reading occurs
after conversion. The unused DOUT line should be left unconnected
in serial mode. For the AD7606, if DOUTB is to be used as a single
DOUT line, the channel results are output in the following order:
V5, V6, V7, V8, V1, V2, V3, and V4; however, the FRSTDATA
indicator returns low after V5 is read on DOUTB. For the AD7606-6
and the AD7606-4, if DOUTB is to be used as a single DOUT line,
the channel results are output in the following order: V4, V5, V6,
V1, V2, and V3 for the AD7606-6; and V3, V4, V1, and V2 for
the AD7606-4.
Figure 6 shows the timing diagram for reading one channel of
data, framed by the CS signal, from the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 in serial mode. The SCLK input signal provides the
clock source for the serial read operation. The CS goes low to
access the data from the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4.
The falling edge of CS takes the bus out of three-state and clocks
out the MSB of the 16-bit conversion result. This MSB is valid
on the first falling edge of the SCLK after the CS falling edge.
The subsequent 15 data bits are clocked out of the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 on the SCLK rising edge. Data is valid on
the SCLK falling edge. To access each conversion result, 16 clock
cycles must be provided to the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4.
The FRSTDATA output signal indicates when the first channel,
V1, is being read back. When the CS input is high, the FRSTDATA
output pin is in three-state. In serial mode, the falling edge of
CS takes FRSTDATA out of three-state and sets the FRSTDATA
pin high, indicating that the result from V1 is available on the
DOUTA output data line. The FRSTDATA output returns to
a logic low following the 16th SCLK falling edge. If all channels
are read on DOUTB, the FRSTDATA output does not go high when
V1 is being output on this serial data output pin. It goes high
only when V1 is available on DOUTA (and this is when V5 is
available on DOUTB for the AD7606).
READING DURING CONVERSION
Data can be read from the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 while
BUSY is high and the conversions are in progress. This has little
effect on the performance of the converter, and it allows a faster
throughput rate to be achieved. A parallel, parallel byte, or serial
read can be performed during conversions and when oversampling
may or may not be in use. Figure 3 shows the timing diagram for
reading while BUSY is high in parallel or serial mode. Reading
during conversions allows the full throughput rate to be achieved
when using the serial interface with VDRIVE above 4.75 V.
Data can be read from the AD7606 at any time other than on
the falling edge of BUSY because this is when the output data
registers are updated with the new conversion data. Time t6, as
outlined in Table 3, should be observed in this condition.

DIGITAL FILTER
The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 contain an optional digital
first-order sinc filter that should be used in applications where
slower throughput rates are used or where higher signal-to-noise
ratio or dynamic range is desirable. The oversampling ratio of the
digital filter is controlled using the oversampling pins, OS [2:0] (see
Table 9). OS 2 is the MSB control bit, and OS 0 is the LSB control
bit. Table 9 provides the oversampling bit decoding to select the
different oversample rates. The OS pins are latched on the falling
edge of BUSY. This sets the oversampling rate for the next
conversion (see Figure 48). In addition to the oversampling
function, the output result is decimated to 16-bit resolution.
If the OS pins are set to select an OS ratio of eight, the next
CONVST x rising edge takes the first sample for each channel,
and the remaining seven samples for all channels are taken with
an internally generated sampling signal. These samples are then
averaged to yield an improvement in SNR performance. Table 9
shows typical SNR performance for both the ±10 V and the ±5 V
range. As Table 9 shows, there is an improvement in SNR as the
OS ratio increases. As the OS ratio increases, the 3 dB frequency
is reduced, and the allowed sampling frequency is also reduced.
In an application where the required sampling frequency is
10 kSPS, an OS ratio of up to 16 can be used. In this case, the
application sees an improvement in SNR, but the input 3 dB
bandwidth is limited to ~6 kHz.
The CONVST A and CONVST B pins must be tied/driven
together when oversampling is turned on. When the over-
sampling function is turned on, the BUSY high time for the
conversion process extends. The actual BUSY high time
depends on the oversampling rate that is selected: the higher the
oversampling rate, the longer the BUSY high, or total conversion
time (see Table 3).

Figure 47. AD7606No Oversampling, Oversampling × 2, and
Oversampling × 4 While Using Read After Conversion
Figure 47 shows that the conversion time extends as the over-
sampling rate is increased, and the BUSY signal lengthens for the
different oversampling rates. For example, a sampling frequency
of 10 kSPS yields a cycle time of 100 µs. Figure 47 shows OS × 2
and OS × 4; for a 10 kSPS example, there is adequate cycle time to
further increase the oversampling rate and yield greater improve-
ments in SNR performance. In an application where the initial
sampling or throughput rate is at 200 kSPS, for example, and
oversampling is turned on, the throughput rate must be reduced
to accommodate the longer conversion time and to allow for the
read. To achieve the fastest throughput rate possible when over-
sampling is turned on, the read can be performed during the
BUSY high time. The falling edge of BUSY is used to update the
output data registers with the new conversion data; therefore, the
reading of conversion data should not occur on this edge.

Rev. C | Page 31 of 36
When the oversampling mode is selected for the AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4, it has the effect of adding a digital filter
function after the ADC. The different oversampling rates and
the CONVST sampling frequency produce different digital filter
frequency profiles.
Figure 56 to Figure 61 show the digital filter frequency profiles for
the different oversampling rates. The combination of the analog
antialiasing filter and the oversampling digital filter can be used
to eliminate and reduce the complexity of the design of any filter
before the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4. The digital filtering
combines steep roll-off and linear phase response.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 should be designed so that the analog and digital
sections are separated and confined to different areas of the board.
At least one ground plane should be used. It can be common or
split between the digital and analog sections. In the case of the
split plane, the digital and analog ground planes should be
joined in only one place, preferably as close as possible to the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4.
If the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 are in a system where
multiple devices require analog-to-digital ground connections,
the connection should still be made at only one point: a star
ground point that should be established as close as possible to the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4. Good connections should be
made to the ground plane. Avoid sharing one connection for
multiple ground pins. Use individual vias or multiple vias to the
ground plane for each ground pin.
Avoid running digital lines under the devices because doing so
couples noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be
allowed to run under the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 to
avoid noise coupling. Fast switching signals like CONVST A,
CONVST B, or clocks should be shielded with digital ground
to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, and they
should never run near analog signal paths. Avoid crossover of
digital and analog signals. Traces on layers in close proximity on
the board should run at right angles to each other to reduce the
effect of feedthrough through the board.
The power supply lines to the AVCC and VDRIVE pins on the
AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 should use as large a trace as
possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect
of glitches on the power supply lines. Where possible, use supply
planes and make good connections between the AD7606 supply
pins and the power tracks on the board. Use a single via or multiple
vias for each supply pin.
Good decoupling is also important to lower the supply impedance
presented to the AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 and to reduce
the magnitude of the supply spikes. The decoupling capacitors
should be placed close to (ideally, right up against) these pins
and their corresponding ground pins. Place the decoupling
capacitors for the REFIN/REFOUT pin and the REFCAPA and
REFCAPB pins as close as possible to their respective AD7606/
AD7606-6/AD7606-4 pins; and, where possible, they should be
placed on the same side of the board as the AD7606 device.
Figure 62 shows the recommended decoupling on the top layer
of the AD7606 board. Figure 63 shows bottom layer decoupling,
which is used for the four AVCC pins and the VDRIVE pin decoupling.
Where the ceramic 100 nF caps for the AVCC pins are placed
close to their respective device pins, a single 100 nF capacitor
can be shared between Pin 37 and Pin 38.

To ensure good device-to-device performance matching in
a system that contains multiple AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
devices, a symmetrical layout between the AD7606/AD7606-6/
AD7606-4 devices is important.
Figure 64 shows a layout with two AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
devices. The AVCC supply plane runs to the right of both devices,
and the VDRIVE supply track runs to the left of the two devices.
The reference chip is positioned between the two devices, and
the reference voltage track runs north to Pin 42 of U1 and south
to Pin 42 of U2. A solid ground plane is used.
These symmetrical layout principles can also be applied to a system
that contains more than two AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4
devices. The AD7606/AD7606-6/AD7606-4 devices can be placed
in a north-south direction, with the reference voltage located
midway between the devices and the reference track running in
the north-south direction, similar to Figure 64.
