GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7870A is a fast, complete, 12-bit A/D converter. It con-
sists of a track/hold amplifier, 8 µs successive approximation
ADC, 3 V buried Zener reference and versatile interface logic.
The ADC features a self-contained internal clock that is laser
trimmed to guarantee accurate control of conversion time. No
external clock timing components are required; the on-chip
clock may be overridden by an external clock if required.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Complete 12-bit ADC on a chip.
AD7870A offers a choice of three data output formats: a single,
parallel, 12-bit word, two 8-bit bytes or serial data. Fast bus
access times and standard control inputs ensure easy interfacing
to modern microprocessors and digital signal processors.
The AD7870A is the most complete monolithic ADC avail-
able and combines a 12-bit ADC with internal clock, track/
hold amplifier and reference on a single chip.
The AD7870A operates from ±5 V power supplies, accepts
bipolar input signals of ±3 V and can convert full power signals
up to 50 kHz.
2. Dynamic specifications for DSP users.
The AD7870A is fully specified and tested for ac parameters,
including signal-to-noise ratio, harmonic distortion and inter-
modulation distortion. Key digital timing parameters are also
tested and guaranteed over the full operating temperature
range.
In addition to the traditional dc accuracy specifications such as
linearity, full-scale and offset errors, the AD7870A is also fully
specified for dynamic performance parameters including har-
monic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio.
3. Fast microprocessor interface.
The AD7870A is fabricated in Analog Devices’ linear compati-
ble CMOS (LC2MOS) process, a mixed technology process that
combines precision bipolar circuits with low power CMOS logic.
The part is available in a 24-pin, 0.3-inch wide, plastic dual in-
line package (DIP).
Data access times of 57 ns make the AD7870A compatible
with modern 8- and 16-bit microprocessors and digital signal
processors.

NOTES
1Timing specifications in bold print are 100% production tested. All other times are sample tested at +25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with
tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of 5 V) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.
2Serial timing is measured with a 4.7 kΩ pull-up resistor on SDATA and SSTRB and a 2 kΩ pull-up on SCLK. The capacitance on all three outputs is 35 pF.
3t6 is measured with the load circuits of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for an output to cross 0.8 V or 2.4 V.
4t7 is defined as the time required for the data lines to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuits of Figure 2.
5SCLK mark/space ratio (measured from a voltage level of 1.6 V) is 40/60 to 60/40.
6t6 SDATA will drive higher capacitive loads but this will add to t12 since it increases the external RC time constant (4.7 kΩʈCL) and hence the time to reach 2.4 V.

Data Bit 11 (MSB)/High Byte Enable. The function of this pin is dependent on the state of the
12/8/CLK input (see below). When 12-bit parallel data is selected, this pin provides the DB11 output.
When byte data is selected, this pin becomes the HBEN logic input. HBEN is used for 8-bit bus
interfacing. When HBEN is low, DB7/LOW to DB0/DB8 become DB7 to DB0. With HBEN high,
DB7/LOW to DB0/DB8 are used for the upper byte of data (see Table I).

DB10/SSTRB
Data Bit 10/Serial Strobe. When 12-bit parallel data is selected, this pin provides the DB10 output.
SSTRB is an active low open-drain output that provides a strobe or framing pulse for serial data. An
external 4.7 kΩ pull-up resistor is required on SSTRB.
Data Bit 9/Serial Clock. When 12-bit parallel data is selected, this pin provides the DB9 output. SCLK is
the gated serial clock output derived from the internal or external ADC clock. If the 12/8/CLK input is at
–5 V, then SCLK runs continuously. If 12/8/CLK is at 0 V, then SCLK is gated off after serial
transmission is complete. SCLK is an open-drain output and requires an external 2 kΩ pull-up resistor.

DB8/SDATA
Data Bit 8/Serial Data. When 12-bit parallel data is selected, this pin provides the DB8 output. SDATA
is an open-drain serial data output which is used with SCLK and SSTRB for serial data transfer. Serial
data is valid on the falling edge of SCLK while SSTRB is low. An external 4.7 kΩ pull-up resistor is
required on SDATA.

AD7870A
CONVERTER DETAILS
The AD7870A is a complete 12-bit A/D converter, requiring no
external components apart from power supply decoupling ca-
pacitors. It is comprised of a 12-bit successive approximation
ADC based on a fast settling voltage-output DAC, a high speed
comparator and SAR, a track/hold amplifier, a 3 V buried Zener
reference, a clock oscillator and control logic.
INTERNAL REFERENCE
The AD7870A has an on-chip temperature compensated buried
Zener reference that is factory trimmed to 3 V ± 10 mV. In-
ternally it provides both the DAC reference and the dc bias re-
quired for bipolar operation. The reference output is available
(REF OUT) and capable of providing up to 500 µA to an ex-
ternal load.
Figure 4. Analog Input
ANALOG INPUT
Figure 4 shows the AD7870A analog input. The analog input
range is ±3 V into an input resistance of typically 15 kΩ. The
designed code transitions occur midway between successive
integer LSB values (i.e., 1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSBs, 5/2 LSBs . . .
FS 3/2 LSBs). The output code is twos complement binary with
1 LSB = FS/4096 = 6 V/4096 = 1.46 mV. The ideal input/out-
put transfer function is shown in Figure 5.
The maximum recommended capacitance on REF OUT for
normal operation is 50 pF. If the reference is required for use
external to the AD7870A, it should be decoupled with a 200 Ω
resistor in series with a parallel combination of a 10 µF tantalum
capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. These decoupling
components are required to remove voltage spikes caused by the
AD7870A’s internal operation.
Figure 3. Reference Circuit
Figure 5. Bipolar Input/Output Transfer Function
TRACK-AND-HOLD AMPLIFIER
The track-and-hold amplifier on the analog input of the AD7870A
allows the ADC to accurately convert an input sine wave of 6 V
peak-peak amplitude to 12-bit accuracy. The input bandwidth
of the track/hold amplifier is much greater than the Nyquist rate
of the ADC even when the ADC is operated at its maximum
throughput rate. The 0.1 dB cutoff frequency occurs typically at
500 kHz. The track/hold amplifier acquires an input signal to
12-bit accuracy in less than 2 µs. The overall throughput rate is
equal to the conversion time plus the track/hold amplifier ac-
quisition time. For a 2.5 MHz input clock the throughput rate
is 10 µs max.
BIPOLAR OFFSET AND FULL SCALE ADJUSTMENT
In most digital signal processing (DSP) applications, offset and
full-scale errors have little or no effect on system performance.
Offset error can always be eliminated in the analog domain by
ac coupling. Full-scale error effect is linear and does not cause
problems as long as the input signal is within the full dynamic
range of the ADC. Some applications will require that the input
signal span the full analog input dynamic range. In such applica-
tions, offset and full-scale error will have to be adjusted to zero.
Where adjustment is required, offset error must be adjusted be-
fore full-scale error. This is achieved by trimming the offset of
the op amp driving the analog input of the AD7870A while the
input voltage is 1/2 LSB below ground. The trim procedure is as
follows: apply a voltage of 0.73 mV (–1/2 LSB) at V1 in Figure 6
and adjust the op amp offset voltage until the ADC output code
flickers between 1111 1111 1111 and 0000 0000 0000. Gain
error can be adjusted at either the first code transition (ADC
negative full scale) or the last code transition (ADC positive full
scale). The trim procedures for both cases are as follows (see
Figure 6).
The operation of the track/hold is essentially transparent to the
user. The track/hold amplifier goes from its tracking mode to its
hold mode at the start of conversion. The track-to-hold transi-
tion occurs on the falling edge of CONVST.

The ideal input/output transfer function is shown in Figure 8.
The output can be converted to natural binary by inverting the
MSB.

Figure 8. Unipolar Transfer Function
UNIPOLAR OFFSET AND FULL-SCALE ADJUSTMENT
When absolute accuracy is required, offset and full-scale error
can be adjusted to zero. Offset must be adjusted before full
scale. This is achieved by applying an input voltage of (1/2 LSB)
to Vl and adjust R6 until the ADC output code flickers between
1000 0000 0000 and 1000 0000 0001. For full-scale adjust-
ment, apply an input voltage of (FS–3/2 LSBs) to Vl and adjust
R5 until the output code flickers between 0111 1111 1110 and
0111 11111111.
Negative Full-Scale Adjust
Apply a voltage of –2.9993 V (–FS/2 +1/ 2 LSB) at V1 and
adjust R2 until the ADC output code flickers between
1000 0000 0000 and 1000 0000 0001.
UNIPOLAR OPERATION
A typical unipolar circuit is shown in Figure 7. The AD7870A
REF OUT is used to offset the analog input by 3 V. The ana-
log input range is determined by the ratio of R3 to R4. The
minimum range with which the circuit will work is 0 V to +3 V
(R3 = 0, R4 = O/C). The resistor values are given in Figure 7
for input ranges of 0 V to +5 V and 0 V to +10 V. R5 and R6
are included for offset and full-scale adjust only and should be
omitted if adjustment is not required.
TIMING AND CONTROL
The AD7870A is capable of one basic interfacing mode. In this
mode (Mode 1), the CONVST line is used to start conversion
and drive the track/hold into its hold mode. At the end of con-
version the track/hold returns to its tracking mode. It is princi-
pally intended for digital signal processing and other applications
where precise sampling in time is required. In these applica-
tions, it is important that the signal sampling occurs at exactly
equal intervals to minimize errors due to sampling uncertainty
or jitter. For these cases, the CONVST line is driven by a timer
or some precise clock source.
DATA OUTPUT FORMATS
The AD7870A offers a choice of three data output formats, one
serial and two parallel. The parallel data formats are a single,
12-bit parallel word for 16-bit data buses and a two-byte format
for 8-bit data buses. The data format is controlled by the
12/8/CLK input. A logic high on this pin selects the 12-bit par-
allel output format only. A logic low or –5 V applied to this pin
allows the user access to either serial or byte formatted data.
Three of the pins previously assigned to the four MSBs in paral-
lel form are now used for serial communications while the
fourth pin becomes a control input for the byte-formatted data.

AD7870A
Parallel Output Format
during the serial transmission only. In these cases, it can be shut
down at the end of conversion to allow multiple ADCs to share
a common serial bus. However, some serial systems (e.g.,
TMS32020) require a serial clock that runs continuously. Both
options are available on the AD7870A using the 12/8/CLK in-
put. With this input at –5 V, the serial clock (SCLK) runs con-
tinuously; when 12/8/CLK is at 0 V, SCLK is turned off at the
end of transmission.
The two parallel formats available on the AD7870A are a 12-bit
wide data word and a two-byte data word. In the first, all 12 bits
of data are available at the same time on DB11 (MSB) through
DB0 (LSB). In the second, two reads are required to access the
data. When this data format is selected, the DB11/HBEN pin
assumes the HBEN function. HBEN selects which byte of data
is to be read from the AD7870A. When HBEN is low, the lower
eight bits of data are placed on the data bus during a read op-
eration; with HBEN high, the upper four bits of the 12-bit word
are placed on the data bus. These four bits are right justified
and thereby occupy the lower nibble of data while the upper
nibble contains four zeros.
MODE 1 INTERFACE
Conversion is initiated by a low going pulse on the CONVST
input. The falling edge of this CONVST pulse starts conversion
and drives the track/hold amplifier into its hold mode. INT is
normally high and goes low at the end of conversion. This INT
line can be used to interrupt the microprocessor. A read opera-
tion to the AD7870A accesses the data and the INT line is reset
high on the falling edge of CS and RD. Trying to exercise CS
and RD during a conversion can cause errors to the conversion
in progress. In applications where precise sampling is not criti-
cal, the CONVST pulse can be generated from a microproces-
sor WR line OR-gated with a decoded address.
Serial Output Format
Serial data is available on the AD7870A when the 12/8/CLK
input is at 0 V or –5 V and in this case the DB10/SSTRB,
DB9/SCLK and DB8/SDATA pins assume their serial func-
tions. Serial data is available during conversion with a word
length of 16 bits; four leading zeros, followed by the 12-bit con-
version result starting with the MSB. The data is synchronized
to the serial clock output (SCLK) and framed by the serial
strobe (SSTRB). Data is clocked out on a low to high transition
of the serial clock and is valid on the falling edge of this clock
while the SSTRB output is low. SSTRB goes low within three
clock cycles after CONVST, and the first serial data bit (the first
leading zero) is valid on the first falling edge of SCLK after
SSTRB goes low. All three serial lines are open-drain outputs
and require external pull-up resistors.
Figure 9 shows the timing diagram for a 12-bit parallel data out-
put format (12/8/CLK = +5 V). A read to the AD7870A at the
end of conversion accesses all 12 bits of data at the same time.
CS and RD control the output three-state drivers. If CS and RD
are high, the databus is three-state. If CS and RD are hardwired
low, data from the previous conversion will remain on the databus.
This data will be updated approximately tCONVERT after the fall-
ing edge of CONVST. With CS and RD hardwired low, the
INT line will remain low. Serial data is not available for this
data output format.
The serial clock out is derived from the ADC clock source,
which may be internal or external. Normally, SCLK is required

Figure 10. Mode 1 Timing Diagram, Byte or Serial Read
The timing diagram for byte and serial data is shown in Figure
10. INT goes low at the end of conversion and is reset high by
the first falling edge of CS and RD. This first read at the end of
conversion can either access the low byte or high byte of data
depending on the status of HBEN (Figure 10 shows low byte
only for example). The diagram shows both a noncontinuously
and a continuously running clock (dashed line).
The output spectrum from the ADC is evaluated by applying a
sine-wave signal of very low distortion to the VIN input which is
sampled at a 100 kHz sampling rate. A Fast Fourier Transform
(FFT) plot is generated from which the SNR data can be ob-
tained. Figure 11 shows a typical 2048 point FFT plot of the
AD7870AJN with an input signal of 25 kHz and a sampling
frequency of 100 kHz. The SNR obtained from this graph is
72.6 dB. It should be noted that the harmonics are taken into
account when calculating the SNR.
AD7870A DYNAMIC SPECIFICATIONS
The AD7870A is specified and 100% tested for dynamic perfor-
mance specifications. These ac specifications are required for
signal processing applications such as speech recognition, spec-
trum analysis and high speed modems. These applications re-
quire information on the ADC’s effect on the spectral content
of the input signal. Hence, the parameters for which the AD7870A
is specified include SNR, harmonic distortion, intermodulation
distortion and peak harmonics. These terms are discussed in
more detail in the following sections.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the measured signal-to-noise ratio at the output of the
ADC. The signal is the rms magnitude of the fundamental.
Noise is the rms sum of all the nonfundamental signals up to
half the sampling frequency (FS/2) excluding dc. SNR is depen-
dent upon the number of quantization levels used in the digiti-
zation process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization
noise. The theoretical signal-to-noise ratio for a sine wave input
is given by
SNR =(6.02N + 1.76) dB
(1)
where N is the number of bits. Thus for an ideal 12-bit con-
verter, SNR = 74 dB.

Effective Number of Bits
it is the ratio of the rms sum of the individual distortion prod-
ucts to the rms amplitude of the fundamental expressed in dBs.
In this case, the input consists of two, equal amplitude, low dis-
tortion sine waves. Figure 13 shows a typical IMD plot for the
AD7870A.
The formula given in (1) relates the SNR to the number of bits.
Rewriting the formula, as in (2), it is possible to obtain a mea-
sure of performance expressed in effective number of bits (N).

The effective number of bits for a device can be calculated di-
rectly from its measured SNR.
Figure 12 shows a typical plot of effective number of bits versus
frequency for an AD7870AJN, with a sampling frequency of
100 kHz. The effective number of bits typically falls between
11.7 and 11.85 corresponding to SNR figures of 72.2 dB and
73.1 dB.

Harmonic Distortion
Figure 13. IMD Plot
Harmonic distortion is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to
the fundamental. For the AD7870A, total harmonic distortion
(THD) is defined as
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
Peak harmonic or spurious noise is defined as the ratio of the
rms value of the next largest component in the ADC output
spectrum (up to FS/2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the
fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification will be
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for
parts where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor the peak
will be a noise peak.

where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3,
V4, V5 and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the
sixth harmonic. The THD is also derived from the FFT plot of
the ADC output spectrum.
AC Linearity Plot
When a sine wave of specified frequency is applied to the VIN
input of the AD7870A, and several million samples are taken, a
histogram showing the frequency of occurrence of each of the
4096 ADC codes can be generated. From this histogram data it
is possible to generate an ac integral linearity plot as shown in
Figure 14. This shows very good integral linearity performance
from the AD7870A at an input frequency of 25 kHz. The ab-
sence of large spikes in the plot shows good differential linearity.
Simplified versions of the formulae used are outlined below.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion
products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa + nfb where
m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. Intermodulation terms are those for
which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For example, the sec-
ond order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa – fb), while the third
order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa – fb), (fa + 2fb) and (fa –
2fb). Using the CCIF standard, where two input frequencies
near the top end of the input bandwidth are used, the second
and third order terms are of different significance. The second
order terms are usually distanced in frequency from the original
sine waves while the third order terms are usually at a frequency
close to the input frequencies. As a result, the second and third
order terms are specified separately. The calculation of the in-
termodulation distortion is as per the THD specification where
V(i )–V(o)
V( fs)–V(o)
INL(i )=
× 4096 – i
where INL(i) is the integral linearity at code i. V(fs) and V(o)
are the estimated full-scale and offset transitions and V(i) is the
estimated transition for the ith code.

V(i) the estimated code transition point is derived as follows:
noisy code transitions. Other causes of concern are ground loops
and digital feedthrough from microprocessors. These are factors
that influence any ADC, and a proper PCB layout that mini-
mizes these effects is essential for best performance.

LAYOUT HINTS
Ensure that the layout for the printed circuit board has the digi-
tal and analog signal lines separated as much as possible. Take
care not to run any digital track alongside an analog signal track.
Guard (screen) the analog input with AGND.
Establish a single point analog ground (star ground) separate
from the logic system ground at the AD7870A AGND pin or as
close as possible to the AD7870A. Connect all other grounds
and the AD7870A DGND to this single analog ground point.
Do not connect any other digital grounds to this analog ground
point.
Low impedance analog and digital power supply common re-
turns are essential to low noise operation of the ADC, so make
the foil width for these tracks as wide as possible. The use of
ground planes minimizes impedance paths and also guards the
analog circuitry from digital noise.

NOISE
APPLICATION HINTS
Keep the input signal leads to VIN and signal return leads from
AGND as short as possible to minimize input noise coupling. In
applications where this is not possible, use a shielded cable be-
tween the source and the ADC. Reduce the ground circuit im-
pedance as much as possible since any potential difference in
grounds between the signal source and the ADC appears as an
error voltage in series with the input signal.
Good printed circuit board (PCB) layout is as important as the
overall circuit design itself in achieving high speed A/D perfor-
mance. The AD7870A is required to make bit decisions on an
LSB size of 1.465 mV. Thus, the designer has to be conscious of
noise both in the ADC itself and in the preceding analog circuitry.
Switching mode power supplies are not recommended as the
switching spikes will feed through to the comparator causing
