As a minimum, each device contains the integrator, zero crossing compara- tor and processor interface logic. The TC500 is the base (16 bit max) device and requires both positive and negative power supplies. The TC500A is identical to the TC500, except it has improved linearity allowing it to operate to a maximum resolution of 17 bits. The TC510 adds an on- board negative power supply converter for single supply operation. The TC514 adds both a negative power supply converter and a 4 input differential analog multiplexer. Each device has the same processor control interface consisting of 3 wires: control inputs A and B and zero- crossing comparator output (CMPTR). The processor ma- nipulates A, B to sequence the TC5xx through four phases of conversion: Auto Zero, Integrate, Deintegrate and Inte- grator Zero. During the Auto Zero phase, offset voltages in the TC5xx are corrected by a closed-loop feedback mecha- nism. The input voltage is applied to the integrator during the Integrate phase. This causes an integrator output dv/dt directly proportional to the magnitude of the input voltage. The higher the input voltage, the greater the magnitude of the voltage stored on the integrator during this phase. At the start of the Deintegrate phase, an external voltage reference is applied to the integrator, and at the same time, the external host processor starts its on-board timer.

APPLICATIONS

The procedure outlined below allows the user to arrive at values for the following TC5xx design variables: (1) Integration Phase Timing (2) Integrator Timing Components (RINT, CINT) (3) Auto Zero and Reference Capacitors (4) Voltage Reference Select Integration Time Integration time must be picked as a multiple of the period of the line frequency. For example, t INT times of 33msec, 66msec and 132msec maximize 60Hz line rejec- tion. D INT and IZ Phase Timing The duration of the DINT phase is a function of the amount of voltage stored on the integrator during TINT, and the value of V REF . The DINT phase must be initiated imme- diately following INT and terminated when an integrator output zero-crossing is detected. In general, the maximum number of counts chosen for DINT is twice that of INT (with V REF chosen at VIN (max)/2). Calculate Integrating Resistor (RINT) The desired full-scale input voltage and amplifier output current capability determine the value of RINT. The buffer and integrator amplifiers each have a full-scale current of 20µA. The value of R INT is therefore directly calculated as follows: R INT(in MΩ ) = VIN MAX where: VIN MAX = Maximum input voltage (full count voltage) RINT =Integrating Resistor (in MΩ ) For loop stability, RINT should be ≥ 50kΩ . Select Reference (CREF ) and Auto Zero (CAZ ) Capacitors C REF and CAZ must be low leakage capacitors (such as polypropylene). The slower the conversion rate, the larger the value C REF must be. Recommended capacitors for CREF and CAZ are shown in Table 1. Larger values for CAZ and C REF may also be used to limit roll-over errors. Table 1.

3-31TELCOM SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. PRECISION ANALOG FRONT ENDS TC500 TC500A TC510 TC514 USING THE TC510/514 Negative Supply Voltage Converter (TC510, TC514) A capacitive charge pump is employed to invert the voltage on VDD for negative bias within the TC510/514. This voltage is also available on the V–OUT pin to provide negative bias elsewhere in the system. Two external capacitors are required to perform the conversion. Timing is generated by an internal state machine driven from an on-board oscillator. During the first phase, capacitor C F is switched across the power supply and charged to V+ This charge is transferred to capacitor C–OUT during the second phase. The oscillator normally runs at 100kHz to ensure minimum output ripple. This frequency can be re- duced by placing a capacitor from OSC to V DD . The relation- ship between the capacitor value is shown in the typical characteristics curves at the end of this data sheet. Analog Input Multiplexer (TC514) The TC514 is equipped with a four input differential analog multiplexer. Input channels are selected using select inputs (A1, A0). These are high-true control signals (i.e., channel 0 is selected when (A1, A0 = 00). EVALUATION KIT (TC500EV) The TC500EV consists of a pre-assembled, 4 inch by 6 inch printed circuit board that connects to the serial port of any PC or dumb terminal. Design software is also included. TC500EV helps reduce design time and optimize converter performance. Please contact your local TelCom representa- tive for more information. Design Example Given: Required Resolution: 16 Bits (65,536 counts). Maximum V IN: ±2V Power Supply Voltage: +5V 60Hz System Step 1: Pick integration time (t INT) as a multiple of the line frequency: 1/60Hz = 16.6msec. Use 4x line frequency = 66msec Step 2: Calculate RINT R INT (in MΩ ) = VINMAX /20 = 2/20 = 100kΩ Step 3: Calculate CINT for maximum (4V) integrator output swing: C INT (in µF) = (tINT) (20 x 10 –6) / (VS – 0.9) = .32µF (use closest value: 0.33µF) NOTE: TelCom recommended capacitor: WIMA p/n: MK12 .33/63/10 Step 4: Choose CREF and CAZ based on conversion rate: Conversions/sec = 1/(tAZ + tINT + 2 tINT + 2msec) = 1/(66msec + 66msec +132msec+2msec) = 3.7 conversions/sec From which CAZ = CREF = 0.22µF (see Table 1) NOTE: TelCom recommended capacitor: WIMA p/n: MK12 .22/63/10 Step 5: Calculate VREF VREF (in Volts) = (VS – 0.9) (CINT) (RINT) 2(tINT) = 1.025V
