© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. General Description: The TC850 is a monolithic CMOS A/D converter (ADC) with resolution of 15-bits plus sign. It combines a chopper-stabilized buffer and integrator with a unique multiple-slope integration technique that increases conversion speed. The result is 16 times improvement in speed over previous 15-bit, monolithic integrating ADCs (from 2.5 conversions per second up to 40 per second). Faster conversion speed is especially welcome in systems with human interface, such as digital scales. The TC850 incorporates an ADC and a μP-compatible digital interface. Only a voltage reference and a few, noncritical, passive components are required to form a complete 15-bit plus sign ADC. CMOS processing provides the TC850 with high-impedance, differential inputs. Input bias current is typically only 30 pA, permit- ting direct interface to sensors. Input sensitivity of 100 μV per Least Significant bit (LSb) eliminates the need for precision external amplifiers. The internal amplifiers are auto-zeroed, ensuring a zero digital output, with 0V analog input. Zero adjustment potentiometers or calibrations are not required. The TC850 outputs data on an 8-bit, 3-state bus. Digital inputs are CMOS compatible while outputs are TTL/ CMOS compatible. Chip-enable and byte-select inputs, combined with an end-of-conversion output, ensures easy interfacing to a wide variety of microprocessors. Conversions can be performed continuously or on command. In Continuous mode, data is read as three consecutive bytes and manipulation of address lines is not required. Operating from ±5V supplies, the TC850 dissipates only 20 mΩ. The TC850 is packaged in a 40-pin plastic or ceramic dual-in-line package (DIPs) and in a 44-pin plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC), surface-mount package.

A simplified block diagram is shown in Figure 4-1. 4.1 Conversion Timing Each conversion consists of three phases: Zero Integrator Signal Integrate Reference Integrate (or De-integrate) Each conversion cycle requires 1280 internal clock cycles (Figure 4-2).

© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. 4.2 Zero Integrator Phase During the zero integrator phase, the differential input signal is disconnected from the circuit by opening inter- nal analog gates. The internal nodes are shorted to analog common (ground) to establish a zero input con- dition. At the same time, a feedback loop is closed around the input buffer, integrator and comparator. The feedback loop ensures the integrator output is near 0V before the signal integrate phase begins. During this phase, a chopper-stabilization technique is used to cancel offset errors in the input buffer, integra- tor and comparator. Error voltages are stored on the CBUFF, CINT and COMP capacitors. The zero integrate phase requires 246 clock cycles. 4.3 Signal Integrate Phase The zero integrator loop is opened and the internal dif- ferential inputs are connected to IN+ and IN-. The differ- ential input signal is integrated for a fixed time period. The TC850 signal integrate period is 256 clock periods, or counts. The crystal oscillator frequency is ÷4 before clocking the internal counters. The integration time period is: EQUATION 4-1: 4.4 Reference Integrate Phase During reference integrate phase, the charge stored on the integrator capacitor is discharged. The time required to discharge the capacitor is proportional to the analog input voltage. The reference integrate phase is divided into three subphases: Fast Slow Overrange de-integrate During fast de-integrate, VIN- is internally connected to analog common and VIN+ is connected across the pre- viously-charged reference capacitor (CREF1). The inte- grator capacitor is rapidly discharged for a maximum of 512 internal clock pulses, yielding 9 bits of resolution. During the slow de-integrate phase, the internal VIN+ node is now connected to the CREF2 capacitor and the residual charge on the integrator capacitor is further discharged a maximum of 64 clock pulses. At this point, the analog input voltage has been converted with 15 bits of resolution. If the analog input is greater than full scale, the TC850 performs up to three overrange de-integrate sub- phases. Each subphase occupies a maximum of 64 clock pulses. The overrange feature permits analog inputs up to 192 LSBs greater than full scale to be correctly converted. This feature permits the user to digitally null up to 192 counts of input offset, while retaining full 15-bit resolution. In addition to 512 counts of fast, 64 counts of slow and 192 counts of overrange de-integrate, the reference integrate phase uses 10 clock pulses to permit internal nodes to settle. Therefore, the reference integrate cycle occupies 778 clock pulses. TINT = 4 x 256 FOSC

© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. DS21479C-page 11 TC850 5.0 PIN DESCRIPTION (ANALOG) 5.1 Differential Inputs (IN+ and IN–) The analog signal to be measured is applied at the IN+ and IN– inputs. The differential input voltage must be within the Common mode range of the converter. The input Common mode range extends from VDD - 1.5V to VSS +1.5V. Within this Common mode voltage range, an 80 dB CMRR is typical. The integrator output also follows the Common mode voltage. The integrator output must not be allowed to saturate. A worst-case condition exists, for example, when a large, positive Common mode voltage, with a near full scale negative differential input voltage, is applied. The negative input signal drives the integrator positive when most of its available swing has been used up by the positive Common mode voltage. For applications where maximum Common mode range is critical, integrator swing can be reduced. The integrator output can swing within 0.4V of either supply without loss of linearity. 5.2 Differential Reference (VREF) The TC850 requires two reference voltage sources in order to generate the “fast-slow” de-integrate phases. The main voltage reference (VREF1) is applied between the REF1+ and REF- pins. The secondary reference (VREF2) is applied between the REF2+ and REF- pins. The reference voltage inputs are fully differential and the reference voltage can be generated anywhere within the power supply voltage of the converter. How- ever, to minimize rollover error, especially at high con- version rates, keep the reference Common mode voltage (i.e., REF-) near or at the analog common potential. All voltage reference inputs are high-imped- ance. Average reference input current is typically only 30 pA. 5.3 Analog Common (ANALOG COMMON) Analog common is used as the IN- return during the zero integrator and de-integrate phases of each con- version. If IN- is at a different potential than analog common, a Common mode voltage exists in the sys- tem. This signal is rejected by the 80dB CMRR of the converter. However, in most applications, IN- will be set at a fixed, known voltage (power supply common, for instance). In this case, analog common should be tied to the same point so that the Common mode voltage is eliminated.

© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. 6.0 DIGITAL SECTION The TC850 digital section consists of two sets of con- version counters, control and sequencing logic, clock oscillator and divider, data latches and an 8-bit, 3-state interface bus. A simplified schematic of the bus interface logic is shown in Figure 6-1 6.1 Clock Oscillator The TC850 includes a crystal oscillator on-chip. All that is required is to connect a crystal across OSC1 and OSC2 pins and to add two inexpensive capacitors (Figure 1-1). The oscillator output is ÷ 4 prior to clock- ing the A/D internal counters. For example, a 100 kHz crystal produces a system clock frequency of 25 kHz. Since each conversion requires 1280 clock periods, in this case the conversion rate will be 25,000/1280, or 19.5 conversions per second. In most applications, however, an external clock is divided down from the microprocessor clock. In this case, the OSC1 pin is used as the external oscillator input and OSC2 is left unconnected. The external clock driver should swing from digital ground to VDD. The ÷ 4 function is active for both external clock and crystal oscillator operations. FIGURE 6-1: Bus Interface Simplified Schematic 6.2 Digital Operating Modes Two modes of operation are available with the TC850, continuous conversions and on-demand. The Operat- ing mode is controlled by the CONT/DEMAND input. The bus interface method is different for Continuous and Demand modes of operation. 6.2.1 DEMAND MODE OPERATION When CONT/DEMAND is low, the TC850 performs one conversion each time the chip is selected and the WR input is pulsed low. Data is valid on the falling edge of the BUSY output and can be accessed using the interface truth table (Table 6-1). 6.2.2 CONTINUOUS MODE OPERATION When CONT/DEMAND is high, the TC850 continu- ously performs conversions. Data will be valid on the falling edge of the BUSY output and remains valid for 443-1/2 clock cycles. The low/high (L/H) byte-select and overrange/polarity (OVR/POL) inputs are disabled during Continuous mode operation. Data must be read in three consecutive bytes, as shown in Table 6-1. RD L/H 3-State Buffer Output Enable End of Conversion CONT/ DEMAND Start Conversion To A/D Control Logic Octal 2-Input Mux Select Low-Byte Up/Down Counter High-Byte Up/Down Counter Polarity Overrange TC850 Select 2-Input Mux DBO–DB7 CE CS WR POL/OVR Note: In Continuous mode, the conversion result must be read within 443-1/2 clock cycles of the BUSY output falling edge. After this time (i.e.,1/2 clock cycle before BUSY goes high) the internal counters are reset and the data is lost.

Extended overrange operation: Although rated at 15 bits (±32,767 counts) of resolution, the TC850 provides an addi- tional 191 counts above full scale. For example, with a full-scale input of 3.2768V, the maximum analog input voltage which will be properly converted is 3.2958V. The extended resolution is signified by the overrange bit being high and the low-order byte contents being between 0 and 190. For example, with a full-scale voltage of 3.2768V: VIN Overrange Bit Low Byte Data Bits 14–8 3.2767V Low 25510 12710 3.2768V High 00010 010 3.2769V High 00110 010 3.2867V High 09910 010 Continuous mode data transfer: a. In Continuous mode, data MUST be read in three sequential bytes after the BUSY output goes low: (1) The first byte read will be the high-order byte, with DB7 = polarity. (2) The second byte read will contain the low-order byte. (3) The third byte read will again be the high-order byte, but with DB7 = overrange. All three data bytes must be read within 443-1/2 clock cycles after the falling edge of BUSY. The c input must go high after each byte is read, so that the internal byte counter will be incremented. However, the CS and CEinputs can remain enabled through the entire data transfer sequence.

© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. 6.3 Pin Description (Digital) 6.3.1 CHIP SELECT AND CHIP ENABLE (CS AND CE) The CS and CE inputs permit easy interfacing to a vari- ety of digital bus systems. CE is active LOW while CS is active HIGH. These inputs are logically ANDed internally and are used to enable the RD and WR inputs. 6.3.2 WRITE ENABLE INPUT (WR) The write input is used to initiate a conversion when the TC850 is in Demand mode. CS and CE must be active for the WR input to be recognized. The status of the data bus is meaningless during the WR pulse, because no data is actually written into the TC850. 6.3.3 READ ENABLE INPUT (RD) The read input, combined with CS and CE, enable the 3-state data bus outputs. Also, in Continuous mode, the rising edge of the RD input activates an internal byte counter to sequentially read the three data bytes. 6.3.4 LOW/HIGH BYTE SELECT (L/H) The L/H input determines whether the low (Least Significant) Byte or high (Most Significant) Byte of data is placed on the 3-state data bus. This input is mean- ingful only when the TC850 is in the Demand mode. In the Continuous mode, data must be read in three predetermined bytes, so the L/H input is ignored. 6.3.5 OVERRANGE/POLARITY BIT SELECT (OVR/POL) The TC850 provides 15 bits of resolution, plus polarity and overrange bits. Thus, 17 bits of information must be transferred on an 8-bit data bus. To accomplish this, the overrange and polarity bits are multiplexed onto data bit DB7 of the Most Significant Byte. When OVR/POL is HIGH, DB7 of the high byte contains the overrange sta- tus (HIGH = analog input overrange, LOW = input within full scale). When OVR/POL is LOW, DB7 is HIGH for positive analog input polarity and LOW for negative polarity. The OVR/POL input is meaningful only when CS, CE and RD are active, and L/H is LOW (i.e., the Most Significant Byte is selected). OVR/POL is ignored when the TC850 is in Continuous mode. 6.3.6 CONTINUOUS/DEMAND MODE INPUT (CONT/DEMAND) This input controls the TC850 Operating mode. When CONT/DEMAND is HIGH, the TC850 performs conver- sions continuously. In Continuous mode, data must be read in the prescribed sequence shown in Table 6-1. Also, all three data bytes must be read within 443-1/2 internal clock cycles after the BUSY output goes low. After 443-1/2 clock cycles data will be lost. When CONT/DEMAND is LOW, the TC850 begins a conversion each time CS and CE are active and WR is being pulsed LOW. The conversion is complete and data can be read after the falling edge of the BUSY out- put. In Demand mode, data can be read in any sequence and remains valid until WR is again pulsed LOW. 6.3.7 BUSY OUTPUT (BUSY) The BUSY output is used to convey an end-of-conver- sion to external logic. BUSY goes HIGH at the begin- ning of the de-integrate phase and goes LOW at the end of the conversion cycle. Data is valid on the falling edge of BUSY. The output-high period is fixed at 836 clock periods, regardless of the analog input value. BUSY is active during Continuous and Demand mode operation. This output can also be used to generate an end-of- conversion interrupt in μP-based systems. Noninterrupt-driven systems can poll BUSY to determine when data is valid.

APPLICATIONS

7.1 Component Selection 7.1.1 REFERENCE VOLTAGE The typical value for reference voltage VREF1 is 1.6384V. This value yields a full scale voltage of 3.2768V and resolution of 100 μV per step. The VREF2 value is derived by dividing VREF1 by 64. Thus, typical VREF2 value is 1.6384V/64, or 25.6 mV. The VREF2 value should be adjusted within ±1% to maintain 15-bit accuracy for the total conversion process; EQUATION 7-1: The reference voltage is not limited to exactly 1.6384V, however, because the TC850 performs a ratiometric conversion. Therefore, the conversion result will be: EQUATION 7-2: The full scale voltage can range from 3.2V to 3.5V. Full scale voltages of less than 3.2V will result in increased noise in the Least Significant bits, while a full scale above 3.5V will exceed the input common-mode range. 7.1.2 INTEGRATION RESISTOR The TC850 buffer supplies 25 μA of integrator charging current with minimal linearity error. RINT is easily calculated: EQUATION 7-3: For a full scale voltage of 3.2768V, values of RINT between 120 kΩ and 150 kΩ are acceptable. 7.1.3 INTEGRATION CAPACITOR The integration capacitor should be selected to produce an integrator swing of ≈ 4V at full scale. The capacitor value is easily calculated: EQUATION 7-4: The integration capacitor should be selected for low dielectric absorption to prevent rollover errors. A polypropylene, polyester or polycarbonate dielectric capacitor is recommended. 7.1.4 REFERENCE CAPACITORS The reference capacitors require a low-leakage dielec- tric, such as polypropylene, polyester or polycarbon- ate. A value of 1 μF is recommended for operation over the temperature range. If high-temperature operation is not required, the CREF values can be reduced. 7.1.5 AUTO-ZERO CAPACITORS Five capacitors are required to auto-zero the input buffer, integrator amplifier and comparator. Recom- mended capacitors are 0.1 μF film dielectric (such as polyester or polypropylene). Ceramic capacitors are not recommended.
