DESCRIPTION

The ADS807 is a high-speed, high dynamic range, 12-bit pipelined analog-to-digital converter. This con- verter includes a high-bandwidth track-and-hold that gives excellent spurious performance up to and beyond the Nyquist rate. The differential nature of this track- and-hold and A/D circuitry minimizes even-order har- monics and gives excellent common-mode noise immu- nity. The track-and-hold can also be operated single- ended. The ADS807 provides for setting the full-scale range of the converter without any external reference cir- cuitry. The internal reference can be disabled allowing low drive, internal references to be used for improved tracking in multichannel systems. The ADS807 provides an overrange indicator flag to indicate an input signal that exceeds the full-scale input range of the converter. This flag can be used to reduce the gain of front end gain control circuitry. There is also an output enable pin to allow for multiplexing and testability on a PC board. The ADS807 employs digital error correction tech- niques to provide excellent differential linearity for demanding imaging applications.

  • even-order harmonics are minimized
  • improves the noise immunity based on the converter’s common-mode input rejection Using the single-ended mode, the signal is applied to one of the inputs, while the other input is biased with a DC voltage to the required common-mode level. Both inputs are equal in terms of their impedance and performance, except that applying the signal to the complementary input (IN) instead of the IN input will invert the input signal relative to the output code. For example, in case the input driver operates in inverting mode, using IN as the signal input will restore the phase of the signal to its original orientation. Time- domain applications may benefit from a single-ended inter- face configuration and its reduced circuit complexity. While maintaining good signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), driving the ADS807 with a single-ended signal will result in a reduction of the distortion performance. Employing dual supply am- plifiers and AC-coupling will usually yield the best results, while DC-coupling and/or single-supply amplifiers impose additional design constraints due to their headroom require- ments, especially when selecting the 3Vp-p input range. However, single-supply amplifiers have the advantage of inherently limiting their output swing to within the supply rails. Alternatively, a voltage limiting amplifier, like the OPA688, may be considered to set fixed-signal limits and avoid any severe overrange condition for the A/D converter. The full-scale input range of the ADS807 is defined by the reference voltages. For example, setting the range select pin to FS SEL = LOW, and using the internal references (REFT = +3.0V and REFTB = +2.0V), the full-scale range is defined to: FSR = 2 • (REFT – REFB) = 2Vp-p. The trade-off of the differential input configuration versus the single-ended is its higher complexity. In either case, the selection of the driver amplifier should be such that the amplifier’s performance will not degrade the A/D’s perfor- mance. The ADS807 operates on a single power supply, which requires a level shift to a ground-based bipolar input signals to comply with its input voltage range requirements. The input of the ADS807 is of a capacitive nature and the driving source needs to provide the current to charge or discharge the input sampling capacitor while the track-and- hold is in track mode. This effectively results in a dynamic input impedance which depends on the sampling frequency. It most applications, it is recommended to add a series resistor, typically 20W to 50W , between the drive source and the converter inputs. This will isolate the capacitive input from the source, which can be crucial to avoid gain peaking when using wideband operational amplifiers. Secondly, it will create a first-order, low-pass filter in conjunction with the specified input capacitance of the ADS807. Its cut-off frequency can be adjusted even further by adding an external shunt capacitor from each signal input to ground. The optimum values of this R-C network depend on a variety of factors which include the ADS807 sampling rate, the se- lected op amp, the interface configuration and the particular application (time domain versus frequency domain). Gener- ally, increasing the size of the series resistor and/or capacitor

APPLICATION INFORMATION

The ADS807 is a high-speed CMOS A/D converter which employs a pipelined converter architecture consisting of 12 internal stages. Each stage feeds its data into the digital error correction logic ensuring excellent differential linearity and no missing codes at the 12-bit level. The output data be- comes valid after the rising clock edge (see Timing Dia- gram). The pipeline architecture results in a data latency of 6 clock cycles. The analog input of the ADS807 consists of a differential track-and-hold circuit. The differential topology along with tightly matched poly-poly capacitors produce a high level of AC performance at high sampling rates and in undersampling applications. Both inputs (IN, IN) require external biasing using a com- mon-mode voltage that is typically at the mid-supply level (+V S/2). DRIVING THE ANALOG INPUTS The analog inputs of the ADS807 are a very high imped- ance. They should be driven through an R-C network designed to pass the highest frequency of interest. This prevents high frequency noise in the input from affecting SFDR and SNR. The ADS807 can be used in a wide variety of applications and deciding on the best performing analog interface circuit depends on the type of application. The circuit definition should include considerations of input frequency spectrum and amplitude, single-ended or differ- ential drive and available power supplies. For example, communication (frequency domain) applications process frequency bands not including DC. In imaging (time do- main) applications, the input DC component must be main- tained into the A/D converter. Features of the ADS807, including full-scale select (FS SEL ), external reference, and CM output provide flexibility to accommodate a wide range of applications. The ADS807 should be configured to meet application objectives while observing the headroom re- quirements of the driving amplifiers to yield the best overall performance. The ADS807 input structure allows it to be driven either single-ended or differentially. Differential operation of the ADS807 requires an in-phase input signal and a 180° out-of- phase part simultaneously applied to the inputs (IN, IN). The differential operation offers a number of advantages which, in most applications, will be instrumental in achiev- ing the best dynamic performance of the ADS807:

  • the signal swing is half of that required for the single- ended operation and therefore, is less demanding to achieve while maintaining good linearity performance from the signal source
  • the reduced signal swing allows for more headroom in the interface circuitry and therefore, a wider selection of the best suitable driver op amp

DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS Clock Input Requirements Clock jitter is critical to the SNR performance of high speed, high resolution A/D converters. Clock jitter leads to aperture jitter (t A ), which adds noise to the signal being converted. The ADS807 samples the input signal on the rising edge of the CLK input. Therefore, this edge should have the lowest possible jitter. The jitter noise contribution to total SNR is given by the following equation. If this value is near your system requirements, input clock jitter must be reduced. where: ƒ IN is input signal frequency tA is rms clock jitter Particularly in undersampling applications, special consider- ation should be given to clock jitter. The clock input should be treated as an analog input in order to achieve the highest level of performance. Any overshoot or undershoot of the clock signal may cause degradation of the performance. When digitizing at high sampling rates, the clock should have 50% duty cycle (t H = tL), along with fast rise and fall times of 2ns or less. Over Range Indicator (OTR) If the analog input voltage exceeds the set full-scale range, an over range condition exists. The ‘OTR’ pin of the ADS807 can be used to monitor any such out-of-range condition. This ‘OTR’ output is updated along with the data output corre- sponding to the particular sampled analog input voltage. Therefore, the OTR data is subject to the same pipeline delay as the digital data. The OTR output is LOW when the input voltage is within the defined input range. It will go to HIGH if the applied signal exceeds the full-scale range. Data Outputs The output data format of the ADS807 is in positive Straight Offset Binary code, see Table II and Table II. This format can easily be converted into the Two’s Binary Complement code by inverting the MSB. It is recommended that the capacitive loading on the data lines be as low as possible (< 15pF). Higher capacitive loading will cause larger dynamic currents as the digital outputs are changing. Those high current surges can feed back to the analog portion of the ADS807 and affect the performance.

Reference Voltages for Input Signal Ranges. to the converter’s output pins may be used to minimize the capacitive loading. They also provide the added benefit of isolating the ADS807 from high frequency digital noise on the bus coupling back into the converter. Digital Output Driver Supply (VDRV) The ADS807 features a dedicated supply pin for the output logic drivers, VDRV, which is not internally connected to the other supply pins. Setting the voltage at VDRV to +5V or +3V, the ADS807 produces corresponding logic levels and can directly interface to the selected logic family. The output stages are designed to supply sufficient current to drive a variety of logic families. However, it is recom- mended to use the ADS807 with +3V logic supply. This will lower the power dissipation in the output stages due to the lower output swing and reduce current glitches on the supply line which may affect the AC performance of the converter. In some applications, it might be advantageous to decouple the VDRV pin with additional capacitors or a pi-filter. GROUNDING AND DECOUPLING Proper grounding, bypassing, short trace lengths, and the use of power and ground planes are particularly important for high frequency designs. Multilayer PC boards are recom- mended for best performance since they offer distinct advan- tages such as minimizing ground impedance, separation of signal layers by ground layers, etc. The ADS807 should be treated as an analog component. Whenever possible, the supply pins should be powered by the analog supply. This will ensure the most consistent results, since digital supply lines often carry high levels of noise which otherwise would be coupled into the converter and degrade the achievable performance. All ground connections on the ADS807 are internally joined together obviating the design of split ground planes. The ground pins (1, 20, 26) should directly connect
