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 (ADC10062 and ADC10064), 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 ADC10064 includes both S0 and S1. The ADC10062 includes just S0, and the
ADC10061 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 VREFproduces 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 ADC10061 has one input (VIN), the ADC10062 has two inputs (VIN0 and VIN1), and the
VIN2, VIN3 ADC10064 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 ADC10061 has a single ground pin (GND), and the ADC10062 and ADC10064 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 (ADC10062 and ADC10064 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 ADC10061 and the ADC10062 are obsolete. They are discussed here for reference only.
The ADC10061, ADC10062 and ADC10064 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 of 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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 to perform
high-speed conversions without excessive power drain.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
MODES OF OPERATION
The ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 have two basic digital interface modes. Figure 4 and Figure 5 are
timing diagrams for the two modes. The ADC10062 and ADC10064 have input multiplexers that are controlled by
the logic levels on pins S0and S1when S/H goes low. Table 1 is a truth table 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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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, VREFwill 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 ADC10061,
ADC10062, and ADC10064. VREFcan 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 VREFis connected to a voltage other than ground, bypass it with multiple capacitors.

SNAS069E JUNE 1999REVISED MARCH 2013
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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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
VREFis 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.

INHERENT SAMPLE-AND-HOLD
Because the ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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 ADC10061s, ADC10062s, and ADC10064s.
POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
The ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064 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 ADC10061 has a single ground pin, and the ADC10062 and ADC10064 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 ADC10061, ADC10062, and ADC10064, 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 Typical Performance Characteristics. 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. Typical values 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. Typical values 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 ratio, 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:

SNAS069E JUNE 1999REVISED MARCH 2013
where
S/(N + D) is the ratio of signal to noise and distortion, which can vary with frequency (1)
As an example, an ADC10061 with a 5 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 Typical Performance
Characteristics.
SPEED ADJUST
In applications that require faster conversion times, the Speed Adjust pin (pin 14 on the ADC10062, pin 17 on the
ADC10064) 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.
