PIN DESCRIPTIONS

Pin Function Description

DVCC, AVCC Digital and analog positive supply voltage inputs. Connect both to the same voltage source, but bypass separately with

a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10 µF tantalum capacitor to ground at each pin.

INT Active low interrupt output. INT goes low at the end of each conversion, and returns high following the rising edge of

RD.

S/H Sample/Hold control input. When this pin is forced low (and CS is low), the analog input signal is sampled and a new

conversion is initiated.

RD Active low read control input. When this RD and CS are low, any data present in the output registers will be placed

onto the data bus.

CS Active low Chip Select control input. When low, this pin enables the RD and S/H pins.

S0, S1 On the multiple-input devices (ADC10462 and ADC10464), these pins select the analog input that will be connected to

the A/D during the conversion. The input is selected based on the state of S0 and S1 when S/H makes its High-to-Low

transition (See Timing Diagrams). The ADC10464 includes both S0 and S1. The ADC10462 includes just S0, and the

ADC10461 has neither.

VREF−, VREF+ Reference voltage inputs. They may be placed at any voltage between GND and VCC, but VREF+ must be greater than

VREF−. An input voltage equal to VREF−produces an output code of 0, and an input voltage equal to (VREF+ −1 LSB)

produces an output code of 1023.

VIN, VIN0, VIN1, Analog input pins. The ADC10461 has one input (VIN), the ADC10462 has two inputs (VIN0 and VIN1), and the

VIN2, VIN3 ADC10464 has four inputs (VIN0, VIN1, VIN2 and VIN3). The impedance of the input source should be less than 500Ωfor

best accuracy and conversion speed. For accurate conversions, no input pin (even one that is not selected) should be

driven more than 50 mV above VCC or 50 mV below ground.

GND, AGND, Power supply ground pins. The ADC10461 has a single ground pin (GND), and the ADC10462 and ADC10464 have

DGND separate analog and digital ground pins (AGND and DGND) for separate bypassing of the analog and digital supplies.

The ground pins should be connected to a stable, noise-free system ground. For the devices with two ground pins,

both pins should be returned to the same potential.

DB0–DB9 TRI-STATE data output pins.

SPEED ADJ (ADC10462 and ADC10464 only). This pin is normally left unconnected, but by connecting a resistor between this pin

and ground, the conversion time can be reduced. See Typical Performance Characteristics and the table of Electrical

Characteristics.

These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam

during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.

Functional Description

The ADC10461 and the ADC10462 are obsolete and discussed here for reference only.

The ADC10461, ADC10462 and ADC10464 digitize an analog input signal to 10 bits accuracy by performing two

lower-resolution “flash” conversions. The first flash conversion provides the six most significant bits (MSBs) of

data, and the second flash conversion provides the four least significant bits LSBs).

Figure 20 is a simplified block diagram of the converter. Near the center of the diagram is a string of resistors. At

the bottom of the string of resistors are 16 resistors, each of which has a value 1/1024 the resistance of the

whole resistor string. These lower 16 resistors (the LSB Ladder ) therefore have a voltage drop of 16/1024, or

1/64 of the total reference voltage (VREF+ −VREF−) across them. The remainder of the resistor string is made up

of eight groups of eight resistors connected in series. These comprise the MSB Ladder . Each section of the

MSB Ladder has ⅛of the total reference voltage across it, and each of the LSB resistors has 1/64 of the total

reference voltage across it. Tap points across these resistors can be connected, in groups of sixteen, to the

sixteen comparators at the right of the diagram.

On the left side of the diagram is a string of seven resistors connected between VREF+ and VREF−. Six

comparators compare the input voltage with the tap voltages on this resistor string to provide a low-resolution

“estimate” of the input voltage. This estimate is then used to control the multiplexer that connects the MSB

Ladder to the sixteen comparators on the right. Note that the comparators on the left needn't be very accurate;

they simply provide an estimate of the input voltage. Only the sixteen comparators on the right and the six on the

left are necessary to perform the initial six-bit flash conversion, instead of the 64 comparators that would be

required using conventional half-flash methods.

To perform a conversion, the estimator compares the input voltage with the tap voltages on the seven resistors

on the left. The estimator decoder then determines which MSB Ladder tap points will be connected to the sixteen

comparators on the right. For example, assume that the estimator determines that VIN is between 11/16 and

13/16 of VREF. The estimator decoder will instruct the comparator MUX to connect the 16 comparators to the taps

on the MSB ladder between 10/16 and 14/16 of VREF. The 16 comparators will then perform the first flash

conversion. Note that since the comparators are connected to ladder voltages that extend beyond the range

indicated by the estimator circuit, errors in the estimator as large as 1/16 of the reference voltage (64 LSBs) will

be corrected. This first flash conversion produces the six most significant bits of data—four bits in the flash itself,

and 2 bits in the estimator.

The remaining four LSBs are now determined using the same sixteen comparators that were used for the first

flash conversion. The MSB Ladder tap voltage just below the input voltage (as determined by the first flash) is

subtracted from the input voltage and compared with the tap points on the sixteen LSB Ladder resistors. The

result of this second, four-bit flash conversion is then decoded, and the full 10-bit result is latched.

Note that the sixteen comparators used in the first flash conversion are reused for the second flash. Thus, the

multistep conversion technique used in the ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 needs only a small fraction

of the number of comparators that would be required for a traditional flash converter, and far fewer than would be

used in a conventional half-flash approach. This allows the ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 to perform

high-speed conversions without excessive power drain.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

MODES OF OPERATION

The ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 have two basic digital interface modes. Figure 4 and Figure 5 are

timing diagrams for the two modes. The ADC10462 and ADC10464 have input multiplexers that are controlled by

the logic levels on pins S0and S1when S/H goes low. Table 1 and Table 2 are truth tables showing how the

input channels are assigned.

Mode 1

In this mode, the S/H pin controls the start of conversion. S/H is pulled low for a minimum of 250 ns. This causes

the comparators in the “coarse” flash converter to become active. When S/H goes high, the result of the coarse

conversion is latched and the “fine” conversion begins. After 600 ns (typical), INT goes low, indicating that the

conversion results are latched and can be read by pulling RD low. Note that CS must be low to enable S/H or

RD. CS is internally “ANDed” with S/H and RD; the input voltage is sampled when CS and S/H are low, and data

is read when CS and RD are low. INT is reset high on the rising edge of RD.

Mode 2

In Mode 2, also called “RD mode”, the S/H and RD pins are tied together. A conversion is initiated by pulling both

pins low. The A/D converter samples the input voltage and causes the coarse comparators to become active. An

internal timer then terminates the coarse conversion and begins the fine conversion. 850 ns (typical) after S/H

and RD are pull low, INT goes low, indicating that the conversion is completed. Approximately 20 ns later the

data appearing on the TRI-STATE output pins will be valid. Note that data will appear on these pins throughout

the conversion, but until INT goes low the data at the output pins will be the result of the previous conversion.

REFERENCE CONSIDERATIONS

The ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 each have two reference inputs. These inputs, VREF+ and VREF−, are

fully differential and define the zero to full-scale range of the input signal. The reference inputs can be connected

to span the entire supply voltage range (VREF−= 0V, VREF+ = VCC) for ratiometric applications, or they can be

connected to different voltages (as long as they are between ground and VCC) when other input spans are

required.

Reducing the overall VREF span to less than 5V increases the sensitivity of the converter (e.g., if VREF = 2V, then

1 LSB = 1.953 mV). Note, however, that linearity and offset errors become larger when lower reference voltages

are used. See Typical Performance Characteristics for more information. For this reason, reference voltages less

than 2V are not recommended.

In most applications, VREF−will simply be connected to ground, but it is often useful to have an input span that is

offset from ground. This situation is easily accommodated by the reference configuration used in the ADC10461,

ADC10462, and ADC10464. VREF−can be connected to a voltage other than ground as long as the voltage

source connected to this pin is capable of sinking the converter's reference current (12.5 mA Max @ VREF = 5V).

If VREF−is connected to a voltage other than ground, bypass it with multiple capacitors.

ADC10461, ADC10462, ADC10464

SNAS074E –JUNE 1999–REVISED MARCH 2013

www.ti.com

Since the resistance between the two reference inputs can be as low as 400Ω, the voltage source driving the

reference inputs should have low output impedance. Any noise on either reference input is a potential cause of

conversion errors, so each of these pins must be supplied with a clean, low noise voltage source. Each reference

pin should be bypassed with a 10 µF tantalum and a 0.1 µF ceramic.

THE ANALOG INPUT

The ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 sample the analog input voltage once every conversion cycle.

When this happens, the input is briefly connected to an impedance approximately equal to 600Ωin series with 35

pF. Short-duration current spikes can be observed at the analog input during normal operation. These spikes are

normal and do not degrade the converter's performance.

Large source impedances can slow the charging of the sampling capacitors and degrade conversion accuracy.

Therefore, only signal sources with output impedances less than 500Ωshould be used if rated accuracy is to be

achieved at the minimum sample time (250 ns maximum). If the sampling time is increased, the source

impedance can be larger. If a signal source has a high output impedance, its output should be buffered with an

operational amplifier. The operational amplifier's output should be well-behaved when driving a switched 35

pF/600Ωload. Any ringing or voltage shifts at the op amp's output during the sampling period can result in

conversion errors.

Correct conversion results will be obtained for input voltages greater than GND −50 mV and less than V++

50 mV. Do not allow the signal source to drive the analog input pin beyond the Absolute Maximum Rating. If an

analog input pin is forced beyond these voltages, the current flowing through the pin should be limited to 5 mA or

less to avoid permanent damage to the IC. The sum of all the overdrive currents into all pins must be less than

the Absolute Maximum Rating for Package Input Current. When the input signal is expected to extend beyond

this limit, an input protection scheme should be used. A simple input protection network using diodes and

resistors is shown in Figure 21. Note the multiple bypass capacitors on the reference and power supply pins. If

VREF−is not grounded, it should also be bypassed to analog ground using multiple capacitors (see POWER

SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS). AGND and DGND should be at the same potential. VIN0 is shown with an input

protection network. Pin 17 is normally left open, but optional “speedup” resistor RSA can be used to reduce the

conversion time.

Figure 21. Typical Connection

INHERENT SAMPLE-AND-HOLD

Because the ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 sample the input signal once during each conversion, they

are capable of measuring relatively fast input signals without the help of an external sample-hold. In a non-

sampling successive-approximation A/D converter, regardless of speed, the input signal must be stable to better

than ±1/2 LSB during each conversion cycle or significant errors will result. Consequently, even for many

relatively slow input signals, the signals must be externally sampled and held constant during each conversion if

a SAR with no internal sample-and-hold is used.

Because they incorporate a direct sample/hold control input, the ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 are

suitable for use in DSP-based systems. The S/H input allows synchronization of the A/D converter to the DSP

system's sampling rate and to other ADC10461s, ADC10462s, and ADC10464s.

POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS

The ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464 are designed to operate from a +5V (nominal) power supply. There

are two supply pins, AVCC and DVCC. These pins allow separate external bypass capacitors for the analog and

digital portions of the circuit. To ensure accurate conversions, the two supply pins should be connected to the

same voltage source, and each should be bypassed with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10 µF

tantalum capacitor. Depending upon the circuit board layout and other system considerations, more bypassing

may be necessary.

The ADC10461 has a single ground pin, and the ADC10462 and ADC10464 each have separate analog and

digital ground pins for separate bypassing of the analog and digital supplies. The devices with separate analog

and digital ground pins should have their ground pins connected to the same potential, and all grounds should be

“clean” and free of noise.

In systems with multiple power supplies, careful attention to power supply sequencing may be necessary to avoid

over-driving inputs. The A/D converter's power supply pins should be at the proper voltage before digital or

analog signals are applied to any of the other pins.

LAYOUT AND GROUNDING

In order to ensure fast, accurate conversions from the ADC10461, ADC10462, and ADC10464, it is necessary to

use appropriate circuit board layout techniques. The analog ground return path should be low-impedance and

free of noise from other parts of the system. Noise from digital circuitry can be especially troublesome.

All bypass capacitors should be located as close to the converter as possible and should connect to the

converter and to ground with short traces. The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces to avoid

having spurious signals couple to the input. Any external component (e.g., a filter capacitor) connected across

the converter's input should be connected to a very clean ground return point. Grounding the component at the

wrong point will result in reduced conversion accuracy.

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE

Many applications require the A/D converter to digitize AC signals, but conventional DC integral and differential

nonlinearity specifications don't accurately predict the A/D converter's performance with AC input signals. The

important specifications for AC applications reflect the converter's ability to digitize AC signals without significant

spectral errors and without adding noise to the digitized signal. Dynamic characteristics such as signal-to-noise

ratio (SNR) and total harmonic distortion (THD), are quantitative measures of this capability.

An A/D converter's AC performance can be measured using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) methods. A sinusoidal

waveform is applied to the A/D converter's input, and the transform is then performed on the digitized waveform.

The resulting spectral plot might look like the ones shown in the typical performance curves. The large peak is

the fundamental frequency, and the noise and distortion components (if any are present) are visible above and

below the fundamental frequency. Harmonic distortion components appear at whole multiples of the input

frequency. Their amplitudes are combined as the square root of the sum of the squares and compared to the

fundamental amplitude to yield the THD specification. Ensured limits for THD are given in the table of Electrical

Characteristics.

Signal-to-noise ratio is the ratio of the amplitude at the fundamental frequency to the rms value at all other

frequencies, excluding any harmonic distortion components. Ensured limits are given in the Electrical

Characteristics table. An alternative definition of signal-to-noise ratio includes the distortion components along

with the random noise to yield a signal-to-noise-plus-distortion ration, or S/(N + D).

The THD and noise performance of the A/D converter will change with the frequency of the input signal, with

more distortion and noise occurring at higher signal frequencies. One way of describing the A/D's performance

as a function of signal frequency is to make a plot of “effective bits” versus frequency. An ideal A/D converter

with no linearity errors or self-generated noise will have a signal-to-noise ratio equal to (6.02n + 1.76) dB, where

n is the resolution in bits of the A/D converter. A real A/D converter will have some amount of noise and

distortion, and the effective bits can be found by:

where

• S/(N + D) is the ratio of signal to noise and distortion, which can vary with frequency (1)

As an example, an ADC10461 with a 4.85 VP-P, 100 kHz sine wave input signal will typically have a signal-to-

noise-plus-distortion ratio of 59.2 dB, which is equivalent to 9.54 effective bits. As the input frequency increases,

noise and distortion gradually increase, yielding a plot of effective bits or S/(N + D) as shown in the typical

performance curves.

SPEED ADJUST

In applications that require faster conversion times, the Speed Adjust pin (pin 14 on the ADC10462, pin 17 on the

ADC10464) can significantly reduce the conversion time. The speed adjust pin is connected to an on-chip current

source that determines the converter's internal timing. By connecting a resistor between the speed adjust pin and

ground as shown in Figure 21, the internal programming current is increased, which reduces the conversion time.

As an example, an 18k resistor reduces the conversion time of a typical part from 600 ns to 350 ns with no

significant effect on linearity. Using smaller resistors to further decrease the conversion time is possible as well,

although the linearity will begin to degrade somewhat (see Typical Performance Characteristics). Note that the

resistor value needed to obtain a given conversion time will vary from part to part, so this technique will generally

require some “tweaking” to obtain satisfactory results.

For applications that require ensured performance using the speed adjust pin, the ADC10662 and ADC10664 are

tested and ensured for static and dynamic performance with a fixed value of speed-up resistor.
