GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD7934-6 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very  
low power dissipation at high throughput rates. The part also  
features flexible power management options. An on-chip control  
register allows the user to set up different operating conditions,  
including analog input range and configuration, output coding,  
power management, and channel sequencing.  
The AD7934-6 is a 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive  
approximation (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The  
part operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply and  
features throughput rates up to 625 kSPS. The part contains a  
low noise, wide bandwidth, differential track-and-hold  
amplifier that handles input frequencies up to 50 MHz.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
The AD7934-6 features four analog input channels with a channel  
sequencer that allows a preprogrammed selection of channels to  
be converted sequentially. This part can accept either single-  
ended, fully differential, or pseudo differential analog inputs.  
1. High throughput with low power consumption.  
2. Four analog inputs with a channel sequencer.  
3. Accurate on-chip 2.5 V reference.  
4. Single-ended, pseudo differential, or fully differential analog  
inputs that are software selectable.  
Data acquisition and conversion are controlled by standard control  
inputs, which allow for easy interfacing to microprocessors and  
5. No pipeline delay.

1 Sample tested during initial release to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tr = tf = 5 ns (10ꢀ to 90ꢀ of VDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.  
All timing specifications given above are with a 25 pF load capacitance. See Figure 34, Figure 35, Figure 36, and Figure 37.  
2 Minimum CLKIN for specified performance. With slower CLKIN frequencies, performance specifications apply typically.  
3 The time required for the output to cross 0.4 V or 2.4 V.  
4 t14 is derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V. The measured number is then extrapolated back to remove the effects of charging or  
discharging the 25 pF capacitor. This means that the time, t14, quoted in the timing characteristics is the true bus relinquish time of the part and is independent of the  
bus loading.

ESD CAUTION  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate  
on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features  
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy  
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance  
degradation or loss of functionality.

Description

VDD  
Power Supply Input. The VDD range for the AD7934-6 is from 2.7 V to 5.25 V. The supply should be decoupled  
to AGND with a 0.1 µF capacitor and a 10 µF tantalum capacitor.  
2
B
W/  
Word/Byte Input. When this input is logic high, word transfer mode is enabled, and data is transferred to and  
B
from the AD7934-6 in 12-bit words on Pin DB0 to Pin DB11. When W/ is logic low, byte transfer mode is  
enabled. Data and the channel ID are transferred on Pin DB0 to Pin DB7, and Pin DB8/HBEN assumes its HBEN  
functionality. When operating in byte transfer mode, unused data lines should be tied off to DGND.  
3 to 10  
11  
DB0 to DB7  
VDRIVE  
Data Bits 0 to 7. Three-state parallel digital I/O pins that provide the conversion result, and allow the control  
register to be programmed. These pins are controlled by CS, RD, and WR. The logic high/low voltage levels for  
these pins are determined by the VDRIVE input.  
Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin determines what voltage the parallel interface of  
the AD7934-6 operates. This pin should be decoupled to DGND. The voltage at this pin can be different to that  
at VDD, but should never exceed VDD by more than 0.3 V.  
12  
DGND  
Digital Ground. This is the ground reference point for all digital circuitry on the AD7934-6. This pin should  
connect to the DGND plane of a system. The DGND and AGND voltages should ideally be at the same  
potential, and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis.  
13  
DB8/HBEN  
B
Data Bit 8/High Byte Enable. When W/ is high, this pin acts as Data Bit 8, a three-state I/O pin that is  
CS RD WR B  
. When W/ is low, this pin acts as the high byte enable pin. When HBEN is low,  
controlled by  
,
, and  
the low byte of data written to or read from the AD7934-6 is on DB0 to DB7. When HBEN is high, the top four  
bits of the data being written to or read from the AD7934-6 are on DB0 to DB3. When reading from the device,  
DB4 and DB5 of the high byte contain the ID of the channel corresponding to the conversion result (see the  
channel address bits in Table 9). DB6 and DB7 are always 0. When writing to the device, DB4 to DB7 of the high  
byte must all be 0s.  
14 to 16  
17  
DB9 to DB11  
BUSY  
Data Bits 9 to 11. Three-state parallel digital I/O pins that provide the conversion result and allow the control  
register to be programmed in word mode. These pins are controlled by CS, RD, and WR. The logic high/low  
voltage levels for these pins are determined by the VDRIVE input.  
Busy Output. Logic output indicating the status of the conversion. The BUSY output goes high following the  
falling edge of CONVST and stays high for the duration of the conversion. Once the conversion is complete  
and the result is available in the output register, the BUSY output goes low. The track-and-hold returns to track  
mode just prior to the falling edge of BUSY, on the 13th rising edge of SCLK (see Figure 34).  
18  
19  
CLKIN  
Master Clock Input. The clock source for the conversion process is applied to this pin. Conversion time for the  
AD7934-6 takes 13 clock cycles + t2. The frequency of the master clock input therefore determines the  
conversion time and achievable throughput rate. The CLKIN signal can be a continuous or burst clock.  
Conversion Start Input. A falling edge on CONVST is used to initiate a conversion. The track-and-hold goes  
from track to hold mode on the falling edge of CONVST, and the conversion process is initiated at this point.  
Following power-down, when operating in the autoshutdown or autostandby mode, a rising edge on  
CONVST is used to power up the device.  
CONVST

WR

RD  
Read Input. Active low logic input used in conjunction with CS to access the conversion result. The conversion  
result is placed on the data bus following the falling edge of RD read while CS is low.  
22  
23  
CS  
Chip Select. Active low logic input used in conjunction with RD and WR to read conversion data or write data  
to the control register.  
Analog Ground. This is the ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7934-6. All analog input  
signals and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage. The AGND and DGND  
voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient  
basis.  
AGND  
24  
VREFIN/VREFOUT  
Reference Input/Output. This pin is connected to the internal reference, and is the reference source for the  
ADC. The nominal internal reference voltage is 2.5 V, and it appears at this pin. It is recommended that this pin  
be decoupled to AGND with a 470 nF capacitor. This pin can be overdriven by an external reference. The input  
voltage range for the external reference is 0.1 V to VDD; however, care must be taken to ensure that the analog  
input range does not exceed VDD + 0.3 V. See the Reference Section.  
25 to 28  
VIN0 to VIN3  
Analog Input 0 to Analog Input 3. Four analog input channels that are multiplexed into the on-chip track-and-  
hold. The analog inputs can be programmed to be four single-ended inputs, two fully differential pairs, or two  
pseudo differential pairs by setting the MODE bits in the control register appropriately (see Table 9). The  
analog input channel to be converted can be selected either by writing to the address bits (ADD1 and ADD0)  
in the control register prior to the conversion, or by using the on-chip sequencer. The input range for all input  
channels can be either 0 V to VREF, or 0 V to 2 × VREF, and the coding can be binary or twos complement,  
depending on the states of the RANGE and CODING bits in the control register. Any unused input channels  
should be connected to AGND to avoid noise pickup.

TERMINOLOGY  
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)  
Negative Gain Error  
This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing  
through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The  
endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale, a point 1 LSB  
below the first code transition, and full scale, a point 1 LSB  
above the last code transition.  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 × VREF input range, with −VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the first  
code transition (100 … 000) to (100 … 001) from the ideal  
(that is, −VREF + 1 LSB) after the zero-code error has been  
adjusted out.  
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)  
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Negative Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in negative gain error between any two  
channels.  
Offset Error  
This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 … 000) to  
(00 … 001) from the ideal (that is, AGND + 1 LSB).  
Channel-to-Channel Isolation  
This is a measure of the level of crosstalk between channels.  
It is measured by applying a full-scale sine wave signal to the  
three, nonselected input channels and applying a 50 kHz signal  
to the selected channel. The channel-to-channel isolation is  
defined as the ratio of the power of the 50 kHz signal on the  
selected channel to the power of the noise signal on the unse-  
lected channels that appears in the fast Fourier transform (FFT)  
of this channel. The noise frequency on the unselected channels  
varies from 40 kHz to 740 kHz. The noise amplitude is at  
2 × VREF, while the signal amplitude is at 1 × VREF. See Figure 4.  
Offset Error Match  
This is the difference in offset error between any two channels.  
Gain Error  
This is the deviation of the last code transition (111 … 110) to  
(111 … 111) from the ideal (that is, VREF – 1 LSB) after the  
offset error has been adjusted out.  
Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in gain error between any two channels.  
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)  
Zero-Code Error  
PSRR is defined as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at  
full-scale frequency (f) to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave  
applied to the ADC VDD supply of frequency fS. The frequency  
of the noise varies from 1 kHz to 1 MHz.  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 × VREF input range, with −VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the  
midscale transition (all 0s to all 1s) from the ideal VIN voltage  
(that is, VREF).  
PSRR (dB) = 10log(Pf/PfS)  
where:  
Zero-Code Error Match  
This is the difference in zero-code error between any two  
channels.  
Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output.  
PfS is the power at frequency fS in the ADC output.  
Positive Gain Error  
Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR)  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 × VREF input range, with −VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the last  
code transition (011 … 110) to (011 … 111) from the ideal (that  
is, +VREF – 1 LSB) after the zero-code error has been adjusted out.  
CMRR is defined as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at  
full-scale frequency (f) to the power of a 100 mV p-p sine wave  
applied to the common-mode voltage of VIN+ and VIN− of  
frequency fS.  
CMRR (dB) = 10log(Pf/PfS)  
Positive Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in positive gain error between any two  
channels.  
where:  
Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output.  
PfS is the power at frequency fS in the ADC output.

AD7934-6  
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time  
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise  
The track-and-hold amplifier returns to track mode at the end  
of conversion. The track-and-hold acquisition time is the time  
required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach  
its final value, within ±± LSB, after the end of conversion.  
This 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 is determined by the largest  
harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs where the harmonics  
are buried in the noise floor, it is a noise peak.  
Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD)  
This is the measured ratio of signal-to-noise and distortion at  
the output of the ADC. The signal is the rms amplitude of the  
fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals up  
to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio is  
dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digitiza-  
tion process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization noise.  
Intermodulation Distortion  
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and  
fb, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion  
products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where  
m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms  
are those for which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For  
example, the second-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb),  
while the third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa +  
2fb), and (fa − 2fb).  
The theoretical SINAD ratio for an ideal N-bit converter with a  
sine wave input is given by:  
SINAD = (6.02 N + 1.76) dB  
Thus, for a 12-bit converter, SINAD is 74 dB.  
The AD7934-6 is tested using the CCIF standard where two  
input frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth are  
used. In this case, 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 intermodulation distortion is  
as per the THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms  
sum of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude  
of the sum of the fundamentals, expressed in dBs.  
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)  
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the  
fundamental. For the AD7934-6, it is defined as:  
V22 +V32 +V42 +V52 +V6  
2
THD  
(
dB = −20log  
)
V1  
where :  
V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental.  
V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second  
through the sixth harmonics.

5.25 V if a 2.5 V reference is used; otherwise, care must be taken to ensure that the analog input remains within  
the supply rails. See the Analog Input Configurations section for more information.

SEQUENCER OPERATION  
The configuration of the SEQ0 and SEQ1 bits in the control register allow the user to use the sequencer function. Table 10 outlines the  
two sequencer modes of operation.

This configuration is selected when the sequence function is not used. The analog input channel selected on each  
individual conversion is determined by the contents of the channel address bits, ADD1 and ADD0, in each prior write  
operation. This mode of operation reflects the normal operation of a multichannel ADC, without the sequencer function  
being used, where each write to the AD7934-6 selects the next channel for conversion.

Not used.  
This configuration is used in conjunction with the channel address bits, ADD1 and ADD0, to program continuous  
conversions on a consecutive sequence of channels from Channel 0 to a selected final channel, as determined by  
the channel address bits in the control register. When in differential or pseudo-differential mode, inverse channels  
(for example, VIN1, VIN0) are not converted in this mode.  
NOTE ON WRITING TO THE CONTROL REGISTER TO PROGRAM THE SEQUENCER  
The AD7933 and AD7934 need 13 full CLKIN periods to perform a conversion. If the ADC does not receive the full 13 CLKIN periods,  
CONVST  
the conversion is aborted. If a conversion is aborted after applying 12.5 CLKIN periods to the ADC, ensure that a rising edge of  
or a falling edge of CLKIN is applied to the part before writing to the control register to program the sequencer. If these conditions are not  
met, then the sequencer is not in the correct state to handle being reprogrammed for another sequence of conversions. As a result, the  
performance of the converter is not guaranteed.

AD7934-6  
CIRCUIT INFORMATION  
The AD7934-6 is a fast, 4-channel, 12-bit, single-supply,  
successive approximation analog-to-digital converter.  
The part operates from a 2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply  
and features throughput rates up to 625 kSPS.  
When the ADC starts a conversion (Figure 15), SW3 opens, and  
SW1 and SW2 move to Position B, causing the comparator to  
become unbalanced. Both inputs are disconnected once the  
conversion begins. The control logic and charge redistribution  
DACs are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge  
from the sampling capacitor arrays to bring the comparator  
back into a balanced condition. When the comparator is  
rebalanced, the conversion is complete. The control logic  
generates the output code of the ADC. The output impedances  
of the sources driving the VIN+ and the VIN− pins must match;  
otherwise, the two inputs have different settling times,  
resulting in errors.  
The AD7934-6 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-  
hold, an accurate internal reference, an analog-to-digital  
converter, and a parallel interface housed in a 28-lead TSSOP  
package.  
The AD7934-6 has four analog input channels that can be  
configured to be four single-ended inputs, two fully differential  
pairs or two pseudo differential pairs. An on-chip channel  
sequencer allows the user to select a consecutive sequence of  
channels through which the ADC can cycle with each falling

The AD7934-6 provides flexible power management options to  
allow users to achieve the best power performance for a given  
throughput rate. These options are selected by programming  
the power management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the control  
register.  
ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION  
The output coding for the AD7934-6 is either straight binary or  
twos complement, depending on the status of the CODING bit  
in the control register. The designed code transitions occur at  
successive LSB values (that is, 1 LSB, 2 LSBs, and so on), and the  
LSB size is VREF/4096. The ideal transfer characteristics of the  
AD7934-6 for both straight binary and twos complement output  
coding are shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17, respectively.  
CONVERTER OPERATION  
The AD7934-6 is a successive approximation ADC based on  
two capacitive digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Figure 14  
and Figure 15 show simplified schematics of the ADC in  
acquisition and conversion phase, respectively. The ADC  
comprises control logic, SAR, and two capacitive DACs. Both  
figures show the operation of the ADC in differential/pseudo  
differential mode. Single-ended mode operation is similar but  
VIN− is internally tied to AGND. In the acquisition phase, SW3  
is closed, SW1 and SW2 are in Position A, the comparator is  
held in a balanced condition, and the sampling capacitor arrays  
acquire the differential signal on the input.

Figure 19 shows the equivalent circuit of the analog input  
structure of the AD7934-6 in differential/pseudo differential  
mode. In single-ended mode, VIN− is internally tied to AGND.  
The four diodes provide ESD protection for the analog inputs.  
Care must be taken to ensure that the analog input signals never  
exceed the supply rails by more than 300 mV. This causes the  
diodes to become forward-biased and start conducting into the  
substrate. These diodes can conduct up to 10 mA without  
causing irreversible damage to the part.

The C1 capacitors in Figure 19 are typically 4 pF, and can  
primarily be attributed to pin capacitance. The resistors are  
lumped components made up of the on resistance of the  
switches. The value of these resistors is typically about 100 Ω.  
The C2 capacitors are the sampling capacitors of the ADC and  
typically have a capacitance of 45 pF.

TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM  
Figure 18 shows a typical connection diagram for the  
AD7934-6. The AGND and DGND pins are connected  
together at the device for good noise suppression. The  
VREFIN/VREFOUT pin is decoupled to AGND with a 0.47 µF  
capacitor to avoid noise pickup if the internal reference is  
used. Alternatively, VREFIN/VREFOUT can be connected to an  
external reference source. In this case, the reference pin  
should be decoupled with a 0.1 µF capacitor. In both cases, the  
analog input range can either be 0 V to VREF (RANGE bit = 0)  
or 0 V to 2 × VREF (RANGE bit = 1). The analog input configu-  
ration is either four single-ended inputs, two differential pairs  
or two pseudo differential pairs (see Table 9). The VDD pin  
connects to either a 3 V or 5 V supply. The voltage applied to  
the VDRIVE input controls the voltage of the digital interface.  
Here in Figure 18 it is connected to the same 3 V supply of the  
microprocessor to allow a 3 V logic interface (see the Digital  
Inputs section).

For ac applications, removing high frequency components from  
the analog input signal is recommended by the use of an RC low-  
pass filter on the relevant analog input pins. In applications where  
harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio are critical, the  
analog input should be driven from a low impedance source.  
Large source impedances significantly affect the ac performance  
of the ADC. This can necessitate the use of an input buffer  
amplifier. The choice of the op amp is a function of the  
particular application.

When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input, the source  
impedance should be limited to low values. The maximum  
source impedance depends on the amount of THD that can be  
tolerated. The THD increases as the source impedance increases  
and performance degrades. Figure 20 and Figure 21 show a  
graph of the THD vs. source impedance with a 50 kHz input  
tone for both VDD = 5 V and 3 V, in single-ended mode and

The AD7934-6 can have four single-ended analog input  
channels by setting the MODE0 and MODE1 bits in the control  
register to 0. In applications where the signal source has a high  
impedance, it is recommended to buffer the analog input before  
applying it to the ADC. An op amp suitable for this function is  
the AD8021. The analog input range of the AD7934-6 can be

If the analog input signal to be sampled is bipolar, the internal

signal to make it the correct format for the ADC.  
Figure 23 shows a typical connection diagram when operating  
the ADC in single-ended mode. This diagram shows a bipolar  
signal of amplitude ±1.25 V being preconditioned before it is  
applied to the AD7934-6. In cases where the analog input  
amplitude is ±2.5 V, the 3R resistor can be replaced with a  
resistor of value R. The resultant voltage on the analog input of  
the AD7934-6 is a signal ranging from 0 V to 5 V. In this case,  
the 2 × VREF mode can be used.

The amplitude of the differential signal is the difference between  
the signals applied to the VIN+ and VIN− pins in each differential  
pair (that is, VIN+ − VIN−). VIN+ and VIN− should be simultaneously  
driven by two signals, each of amplitude VREF (or 2 × VREF  
depending on the range chosen), which are 180° out of phase.  
The amplitude of the differential signal is therefore −VREF to +VREF  
peak-to-peak (that is, 2 × VREF), regardless of the common mode  
(CM). The common mode is the average of the two signals,  
(VIN+ + VIN−)/2, and is therefore the voltage on which the two  
inputs are centered. This results in the span of each input being  
CM ± VREF/2. This voltage must be set up externally, and its  
range varies with the reference value VREF. As the value of VREF  
increases, the common-mode range decreases. When driving the  
inputs with an amplifier, the actual common-mode range is  
determined by the amplifier’s output voltage swing.

Driving Differential Inputs  
Differential operation requires that VIN+ and VIN− be  
simultaneously driven with two equal signals that are 180° out  
of phase. The common mode must be set up externally and has  
a range that is determined by VREF, the power supply, and the  
particular amplifier used to drive the analog inputs. Differential  
modes of operation with either an ac or a dc input provide the  
best THD performance over a wide frequency range. Not all  
applications have a signal preconditioned for differential  
operation, so there is often a need to perform single-ended-to-  
differential conversion.  
Figure 25 and Figure 26 show how the common-mode range  
typically varies with VREF for a 5 V power supply using the  
0 to VREF range or 0 to 2 × VREF range, respectively. The common  
mode must be in this range to guarantee the functionality of the  
AD7934-6.  
Using an Op Amp Pair  
An op amp pair can be used to directly couple a differential  
signal to one of the analog input pairs of the AD7934-6. The  
circuit configurations shown in Figure 27 and Figure 28 show  
how a dual op amp can be used to convert a single-ended signal  
into a differential signal for both a bipolar and unipolar input  
signal, respectively.  
When a conversion takes place, the common mode is rejected.  
This results in a virtually noise-free signal of amplitude −VREF  
to +VREF, corresponding to the digital codes 0 to 4096. If the 0 to  
2 × VREF range is used, then the input signal amplitude extends  
from −2 VREF to +2 VREF  
.
The voltage applied to Point A sets up the common-mode  
voltage. In both diagrams, it is connected in some way to the  
reference, but any value in the common-mode range can be  
input here to set up the common mode. A suitable dual op amp  
for use in this configuration to provide differential drive to the  
AD7934-6 is the AD8022.

It is advisable to take care when choosing the op amp; the  
selection depends on the required power supply and system  
performance objectives. The driver circuits in Figure 27 and  
Figure 28 are optimized for dc coupling applications requiring  
best distortion performance. The circuit configuration in  
Figure 27 converts and level shifts a single-ended, ground-  
referenced, bipolar signal to a differential signal centered at  
the VREF level of the ADC. The circuit configuration shown in  
Figure 28 converts a unipolar, single-ended signal into a  
differential signal.

ANALOG INPUT SELECTION  
As shown in Table 9, users can set up their analog input con-  
figuration by setting the values in the MODE0 and MODE1 bits  
in the control register. Assuming the configuration has been  
chosen, there are two different ways of selecting the analog  
input to be converted, depending on the state of the SEQ0 and  
SEQ1 bits in the control register.

Any one of four analog input channels or two pairs of channels  
can be selected for conversion in any order by setting the SEQ0  
and SEQ1 bits in the control register to 0. The channel to be  
converted is selected by writing to the address bits, ADD1 and  
ADD0, in the control register to program the multiplexer prior to  
the conversion. This mode of operation is that of a traditional  
multichannel ADC, where each data write selects the next  
channel for conversion. Figure 30 shows a flow chart of this mode  
of operation. The channel configurations are shown in Table 9.

Another method of driving the AD7934-6 is to use the AD8138  
differential amplifier. The AD8138 can be used as a single-  
ended-to-differential amplifier or as a differential-to-differential  
amplifier. The device is as easy to use as an op amp and greatly  
simplifies differential signal amplification and driving.

Pseudo Differential Mode  
The AD7934-6 can have two pseudo differential pairs by setting  
the MODE0 and MODE1 bits in the control register to 1 and 0,  
respectively. VIN+ is connected to the signal source, which must  
have an amplitude of VREF (or 2 × VREF depending on the range  
chosen) to make use of the full dynamic range of the part. A dc  
input is applied to the VIN− pin. The voltage applied to this input  
provides an offset from ground or a pseudo ground for the VIN+  
input.

CHANNEL TO BE CONVERTED ON BY

Using the Sequencer: Consecutive Sequence  
(SEQ0 = SEQ1 = 1)  
A sequence of consecutive channels can be converted beginning  
with Channel 0, and ending with a final channel selected by  
writing to the ADD1 and ADD0 bits in the control register. This  
is done by setting the SEQ0 and SEQ1 bits in the control  
register to 1. In this mode, once the control register is written  
to, the next conversion is on Channel 0, then Channel 1, and so  
on, until the channel selected by the address bits (ADD1 and  
ADD0) is reached.  
The benefit of pseudo differential inputs is that they separate the  
analog input signal ground from the ADC ground, allowing dc  
common-mode voltages to be cancelled. Typically, the voltage  
range for the VIN− pin while in pseudo differential mode can  
extend from −0.3 V to +0.7 V when VDD = 3 V, or from −0.3 V to  
+1.8V when VDD = 5 V. Figure 29 shows a connection diagram for  
the pseudo differential mode.

REFERENCE SECTION  
The AD7934-6 can operate with either the on-chip reference or  
external reference. The internal reference is selected by setting  
the REF bit in the internal control register to 1. A block diagram  
of the internal reference circuitry is shown in Figure 32. The  
internal reference circuitry includes an on-chip 2.5 V band gap  
reference and a reference buffer. When using the internal refer-  
ence, the VREFIN/VREFOUT pin should be decoupled to AGND with  
a 0.47 µF capacitor. This internal reference not only provides  
the reference for the analog-to-digital conversion, but it can also  
be used externally in the system. It is recommended that the  
reference output is buffered using an external precision op amp  
before applying it anywhere in the system.

Digital Inputs  
The digital inputs applied to the AD7934-6 are not limited by  
the maximum ratings that limit the analog inputs. Instead, the  
digital inputs applied can go to 7 V. They are not restricted by

Another advantage of the digital inputs not being restricted by

are avoided. If any of these inputs are applied before AVDD, then  
there is no risk of latch-up as there is on the analog inputs if a

input is selected by setting the REF bit in the internal control  
register to 0. The external reference input range is 0.1 V to VDD  
VDRIVE Input  
.
The AD7934-6 also has a VDRIVE feature. VDRIVE controls the  
voltage at which the parallel interface operates. VDRIVE allows the  
ADC to easily interface to 3 V and 5 V processors. For example,  
if the AD7934-6 is operated with an AVDD of 5 V, and the VDRIVE  
pin is powered from a 3 V supply, the AD7934-6 has better  
dynamic performance with an AVDD of 5 V while still being able  
to interface to 3 V processors. Care should be taken to ensure  
VDRIVE does not exceed AVDD by more than 0.3 V (see the  
Absolute Maximum Ratings section).  
It is important to ensure that when choosing the reference value,  
the maximum analog input range (VIN MAX) is never greater than  
VDD + 0.3 V, in order to comply with the maximum ratings of the  
device. For example, if operating in differential mode and the  
reference is sourced from VDD, then the 0 to 2 × VREF range cannot  
be used. This is because the analog input signal range would now  
extend to 2 × VDD, which would exceed maximum rating condi-  
tions. In the pseudo differential modes, the user must ensure that  
(VREF + VIN−) ≤ VDD when using the 0 to VREF range, or that (2 ×  
VREF + VIN−) ≤ VDD when using the 2 × VREF range.

read operations with 8 bits of data provided on DB0 to DB7 for

the read operation accesses the high byte or the low byte of the  
12-bit word. For a low byte read, DB0 to DB7 provide the eight  
LSBs of the 12-bit word. For a high byte read, DB0 to DB3  
provide the 4 MSBs of the 12-bit word. DB4 and DB5 of the  
high byte provide the channel ID. DB6 and DB7 are always 0.  
Figure 34 shows the read cycle timing diagram for a 12-bit  
transfer. When operated in word mode, the HBEN input does  
not exist and only the first read operation is required to access  
data from the device. When operated in byte mode, the two

Autostandby Mode (PM1 = 1; PM0 = 0)  
POWER MODES OF OPERATION  
In this mode, the AD7934-6 automatically enters standby mode  
at the end of each conversion, shown as Point A in Figure 34.  
When this mode is entered, all circuitry on the AD7934-6 is  
powered down except for the reference and reference buffer.  
The track-and-hold also goes into hold at this point and  
remains in hold as long as the device is in standby. The part  
The AD7934-6 has four different power modes of operation.  
These modes are designed to provide flexible power manage-  
ment options. Different options can be chosen to optimize  
the power dissipation/throughput rate ratio for differing  
applications. The mode of operation is selected by the power  
management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the control register (see  
Table 8). When power is first applied to the AD7934-6, an on-  
chip, power-on reset circuit ensures that the default power-up  
condition is normal mode.

CONVST  
powers up the device. The power-up time required depends on  
whether the internal or external reference is used. With an  
external reference, the power-up time required is a minimum of  
600 ns. When using the internal reference, the power-up time  
required is a minimum of 7 µs. The user should ensure this  
power-up time has elapsed before initiating another conversion

Normal Mode (PM1 = PM0 = 0)  
This mode is intended for the fastest throughput rate perform-  
ance because the user does not have to allow for power-up times  
associated with the AD7934-6. It remains fully powered up at all  
times. At power-on reset, this mode is the default setting in the  
control register.  
Full Shutdown Mode (PM1 = 1; PM0 = 1)  
When this mode is entered, all circuitry on the AD7934-6 is  
powered down upon completion of the write operation, that is,  
on rising edge of  
. The track-and-hold enters hold mode at  
WR  
this point. The part retains the information in the control  
register while the part is in shutdown. The AD7934-6 remains  
in full shutdown mode, and the track-and-hold in hold mode,  
until the power management bits (PM1 and PM0) in the control  
register are changed. If a write to the control register occurs  
while the part is in full shutdown mode, and the power  
management bits are changed to PM0 = PM1 = 0 (normal  
Autoshutdown Mode (PM1 = 0; PM0 = 1)  
In this mode of operation, the AD7934-6 automatically enters  
full shutdown at the end of each conversion, shown at Point A  
in Figure 34 and Figure 38. In shutdown mode, all internal  
circuitry on the device is powered down. The part retains  
information in the control register during shutdown. The track-  
and-hold also goes into hold at this point, and remains in hold  
as long as the device is in shutdown. The AD7934-6 remains in

between conversions as shown in Figure 38. On this rising edge,  
the part begins to power-up and the track-and-hold returns to  
track mode. The power-up time required is 10 ms minimum  
regardless of whether the user is operating with the internal or  
external reference. The user should ensure that the power-up  
time has elapsed before initiating a conversion.

capacitor on the VREFIN pin.

A considerable advantage of powering the ADC down after a  
conversion is that the parts power consumption is significantly  
reduced at lower throughput rates. When using the different  
power modes, the AD7934-6 is only powered up for the  
duration of the conversion. Therefore, the average power  
consumption per cycle is significantly reduced. Figure 39 shows  
a plot of the power vs. the throughput rate when operating in  
autostandby mode for both VDD = 5 V and 3 V.

For example, if the device runs at a throughput rate of 10 kSPS,  
then the overall cycle time would be 100 µs. If the maximum  
CLKIN frequency of 10 MHz is used, the conversion time  
accounts for only 1.315 µs of the overall cycle time while the  
AD7938-6 stays in standby mode for the remainder of the cycle.

Figure 40. Power vs. Throughput in Normal Mode Using Internal Reference  
If an external reference is used, the power-up time reduces to  
600 ns; therefore, the AD7934-6 remains in standby for a  
greater time in every cycle. Additionally, the current  
consumption when converting should be lower than the  
specified maximum of 1.5 mA or 1.2 mA with VDD = 5 V or 3 V,  
respectively.  
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING  
AD7934-6 to ADSP-21xx Interface  
Figure 41 shows the AD7934-6 interfaced to the ADSP-21xx  
series of DSPs as a memory-mapped device. A single wait state  
could be necessary to interface the AD7934-6 to the ADSP-  
21xx, depending on the clock speed of the DSP. The wait state  
can be programmed via the data memory wait state control  
register of the ADSP-21xx (see the ADSP-21xx family Users  
Manual for details). The following instruction reads from the  
AD7934-6:  
Figure 40 shows a plot of the power vs. the throughput rate  
when operating in normal mode for both VDD = 5 V and 3 V.  
Again, when using an external reference, the current  
consumption when converting is lower than the specified  
maximum. In both plots, the figures apply when using the  
internal reference.

Figure 44 shows the AD7934-6 interfaced to the 80C186  
microprocessor. The 80C186 DMA controller provides two  
independent high speed DMA channels where data transfer can  
occur between memory and I/O spaces. Each data transfer  
consumes two bus cycles, one cycle to fetch data and the other to  
store data. After the AD7934-6 has finished a conversion, the  
BUSY line generates a DMA request to Channel 1 (DRQ1).  
Because of the interrupt, the processor performs a DMA READ  
operation that also resets the interrupt latch. Sufficient priority  
must be assigned to the DMA channel to ensure that the DMA  
request is serviced before the completion of the next conversion.

APPLICATION HINTS  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should  
be decoupled with 10 µF tantalum capacitors in parallel with  
0.1 µF capacitors to GND. To achieve the best from these  
decoupling components, they must be placed as close as  
possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. The  
0.1 µF capacitors should have low effective series resistance  
(ESR) and effective series inductance (ESI), such as the  
common ceramic types or surface-mount types, which provide  
a low impedance path to ground at high frequencies to handle  
transient currents due to internal logic switching.  
GROUNDING AND LAYOUT  
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7934-6 should be  
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated  
and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the  
use of ground planes that can be easily separated. Generally, a  
minimum etch technique is best for ground planes since it gives  
the best shielding. Digital and analog ground planes should be  
joined in only one place, and the connection should be a star  
ground point established as close to the ground pins on the  
AD7934-6 as possible. Avoid running digital lines under the  
device as this couples noise onto the die. The analog ground  
plane should be allowed to run under the AD7934-6 to avoid  
noise coupling. The power supply lines to the AD7934-6 should  
use as large a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths  
and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line.  
EVALUATING THE AD7934-6 PERFORMANCE  
The recommended layout for the AD7934-6 is outlined in the  
evaluation board documentation. The evaluation board package  
includes a fully assembled and tested evaluation board,  
documentation, and software for controlling the board from the  
PC via the evaluation board controller. The evaluation board  
controller can be used in conjunction with the AD7934-6  
evaluation board, as well as with many other ADI evaluation  
boards ending in the CB designator, to demonstrate/evaluate  
the ac and dc performance of the AD7934-6.  
Fast switching signals, such as clocks, should be shielded with  
digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the  
board, and clock signals should never run near the analog  
inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on  
opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each  
other. This reduces the effects of feedthrough through the  
board. A microstrip technique is by far the best but is not  
always possible with a double-sided board. In this technique,  
the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes,  
while signals are placed on the solder side.  
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier  
transform) and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7934-6.  
The software and documentation are on the CD that ships with  
the evaluation board.
