GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
reference is preferred. Each on-board ADC can also be supplied  
with a separate individual external reference.  
The AD7866 is a dual 12-bit high-speed, low power, successive-  
approximation ADC. The part operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V  
power supply and features throughput rates up to 1 MSPS. The  
device contains two ADCs, each preceded by a low-noise, wide  
bandwidth track/hold amplifier which can handle input frequencies  
in excess of 10 MHz.  
The AD7866 is available in a 20-lead thin shrink small outline  
(TSSOP) package.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. The AD7866 features two complete ADC functions allowing  
simultaneous sampling and conversion of two channels. Each  
ADC has a 2-channel input multiplexer. The conversion  
result of both channels is available simultaneously on separate  
data lines, or both may be taken on one data line if only one  
serial port is available.  
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled  
using standard control inputs allowing easy interfacing to  
microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the  
falling edge of CS and conversion is also initiated at this point.  
The conversion time is determined by the SCLK frequency.  
There are no pipelined delays associated with the part.  
2. High Throughput with Low Power Consumption—The  
AD7866 offers a 1 MSPS throughput rate with 11.4 mW  
maximum power consumption when operating at 3 V.  
The AD7866 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very low  
power dissipation at high throughput rates. With 3 V supplies  
and 1 MSPS throughput rate, the part consumes a maximum of  
3.8 mA. With 5 V supplies and 1 MSPS, the current consumption  
is a maximum of 4.8 mA. The part also offers flexible power/  
throughput rate management when operating in sleep mode.  
3. Flexible Power/Throughput Rate Management—The  
conversion rate is determined by the serial clock allowing  
the power consumption to be reduced as the conversion time  
is reduced through a SCLK frequency increase. Power  
efficiency can be maximized at lower throughput rates if the  
part enters sleep during conversions.  
The analog input range for the part can be selected to be a 0 V  
to VREF range or a 2 × VREF range with either straight binary or  
two’s complement output coding. The AD7866 has an  
on-chip 2.5 V reference which can be overdriven if an external  
4. No Pipeline Delay—The part features two standard successive-  
approximation ADCs with accurate control of the sampling  
instant via a CS input and once off conversion control.

1Sample tested at 25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of VDRIVE) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.  
2Mark/Space ratio for the CLK input is 40/60 to 60/40.  
3Measured with the load circuit of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for the output to cross 0.8 V or 2.0 V.  
4t8, t9 are derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 1. The measured number is then extrapolated  
back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the times t8 and t9 quoted in the timing characteristics are the true bus  
relinquish times of the part and are independent of the bus loading.

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  
the AD7866 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.

2.5 V reference is used as the reference source for both ADC A and ADC B. In addition, pins VREF  
,
D
CAPA, and DCAPB must be tied to decoupling capacitors. If the REF SELECT pin is tied to a  
logic high, an external reference can be supplied to the AD7866 through the VREF pin, in which  
case decoupling capacitors are required on DCAPA and DCAPB. However, if the VREF pin is tied to  
AGND while REF SELECT is tied to a logic low, an individual external reference can be applied  
to both ADC A and ADC B through pins DCAPA and DCAPB, respectively. See Reference section.

Decoupling capacitors are connected to these pins to decouple the reference buffer for each respective  
ADC. The on-chip reference can be taken from these pins and applied externally to the rest of a  
system. Depending on the polarity of the REF SELECT pin and the configuration of the VREF pin,  
these pins can also be used to input a separate external reference to each ADC. The range of the  
external reference is dependent on the analog input range selected. See Reference section.  
AGND  
Analog Ground. Ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7866. All analog input  
signals and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage. Both of these  
pins should connect to the AGND plane of a system. 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.

VREF  
Reference Decoupling Pin and External Reference Selection Pin. This pin is connected to the inter-  
nal reference and requires a decoupling capacitor. The nominal reference voltage is 2.5 V and this  
appears at the pin; however, if the internal reference is to be used externally in a system, it must be  
taken from either the DCAPA or DCAPB pins. This pin is also used in conjunction with the REF SELECT  
pin when applying an external reference to the AD7866. See REF SELECT pin description.

RANGE  
Analog Input Range and Output Coding Selection Pin. Logic Input. The polarity on this pin will  
determine what input range the analog input channels on the AD7866 will have, and it will also  
select what type of output coding the ADC will use for the conversion result. On the falling edge of  
CS, the polarity of this pin is checked to determine the analog input range of the next conversion. If  
this pin is tied to a logic low, the analog input range is 0 V to VREF and the output coding from the  
part will be straight binary (for the next conversion). If this pin is tied to a logic high when CS goes  
low, the analog input range is 2 × VREF and the output coding for the part will be two’s complement.  
However, if after the falling edge of CS the logic level of the RANGE pin has changed upon the eighth  
SCLK falling edge, the output coding will change to the other option without any change in the  
analog input range. (See Analog Input and ADC Transfer Function sections.)  
12  
AVDD  
Analog Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the only supply voltage for all analog circuitry on  
the AD7866. The AVDD and DVDD voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not  
be more than 0.3 V apart even on a transient basis. This supply should be decoupled to AGND.  
13  
DVDD  
DGND  
Digital Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for all digital circuitry on the  
AD7866. The DVDD and AVDD voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be  
more than 0.3 V apart even on a transient basis. This supply should be decoupled to DGND.  
14  
Digital Ground. This is the ground reference point for all digital circuitry on the AD7866. The

B
Serial Data Outputs. The data output is supplied to this pin as a serial data stream. The bits are  
clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. The data appears on both pins simultaneously  
from the simultaneous conversions of both ADCs. The data stream consists of one leading zero  
followed by three STATUS bits, followed by the 12 bits of conversion data. The data is provided  
MSB first. If CS is held low for a further 16 SCLK cycles after the conversion data has been output  
on either DOUTA or DOUTB, the data from the other ADC follows on the DOUT pin. This allows  
data from a simultaneous conversion on both ADCs to be gathered in serial format on either DOUTA  
or DOUTB alone using only one serial port. See Serial Interface section.

Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin determines what voltage the interface

Serial Clock. Logic Input. A serial clock input provides the SCLK for accessing the data from the  
AD7866. This clock is also used as the clock source for the conversion process.  
Chip Select. Active low logic input. This input provides the dual function of initiating conversions  
on the AD7866 and also frames the serial data transfer.  
A0  
Multiplexer Select. Logic Input. This input is used to select the pair of channels to be converted  
simultaneously, i.e. Channel 1 of both ADC A and ADC B, or Channel 2 of both ADC A and  
ADC B. The logic state of this pin is checked upon the falling edge of CS and the multiplexer is set  
up for the next conversion. If it is low, the following conversion will be performed on Channel 1 of  
each ADC; if it is high, the following conversion will be performed on Channel 2 of each ADC.

TERMINOLOGY  
Integral Nonlinearity  
up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio  
is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digiti-  
zation process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization  
noise. The theoretical signal to (noise + distortion) ratio for an  
ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by:  
This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing  
through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The end-  
points 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.  
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.02 N + 1.76) dB  
Thus for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB.  
Differential Nonlinearity  
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Total Harmonic Distortion  
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of  
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7866, it is defined as:  
Offset Error  
This applies when using Straight Binary output coding. It is the  
deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to (00 . . . 001)  
from the ideal, i.e., AGND + 1 LSB.

Offset Error Match  
This is the difference in Offset Error between the two channels.  
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 harmonics.  
Gain Error  
This applies when using Straight Binary output coding. It is the  
deviation of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to (111 . . . 111)  
from the ideal (i.e., VREF – 1 LSB) after the offset error has been  
adjusted out.  
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 is deter-  
mined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs  
where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it will be a  
noise peak.  
Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in Gain Error between the two channels.  
Zero Code Error  
This applies when using the two’s complement output coding option,  
in particular with the 2 × VREF input range as –VREF to +VREF biased  
about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the midscale transition  
(all 1s to all 0s) from the ideal VIN voltage, i.e., VREF – 1 LSB.  
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 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).  
Zero Code Error Match  
This is the difference in Zero Code Error between the two  
channels.  
Positive Gain Error  
This applies when using the two’s complement output coding  
option, in particular with the 2 × VREF input range as –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 (i.e., +VREF – 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error has  
been adjusted out.  
The AD7866 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 dB.  
Negative Gain Error  
This applies when using the two’s complement output coding  
option, in particular with the 2 × VREF input range as –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  
(i.e., –VREF + 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error error has been  
adjusted out.  
Channel-to-Channel Isolation  
Channel-to-channel isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk  
between channels. It is measured by applying a full-scale (2 × VREF),  
455 kHz sine wave signal to all non selected input channels and  
determining how much that signal is attenuated in the selected  
channel with a 10 kHz signal (0 V to VREF). The figure given is  
the worst-case across all four channels for the AD7866.  
Track/Hold Acquisition Time  
The track/hold amplifier returns into track mode after the end  
of conversion. Track/Hold acquisition time is the time required  
for the output of the track/hold amplifier to reach its final value,  
within 1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion.  
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)  
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) Ratio  
See Performance Curves section.  
This is the measured ratio of signal to (noise + distortion) at the  
output of the A/D converter. The signal is the rms amplitude of  
the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals

AD7866  
CIRCUIT INFORMATION  
CAPACITIVE  
DAC  
The AD7866 is a fast, micropower, dual 12-bit, single supply,  
A/D converter that operates from a 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply.  
When operated from either a 5 V supply or a 3 V supply, the  
AD7866 is capable of throughput rates of 1 MSPS when provided  
with a 20 MHz clock.

V
IN  
CONTROL  
LOGIC  
SW1  
B
SW2  
COMPARATOR  
The AD7866 contains two on-chip track/hold amplifiers, two  
successive-approximation A/D converters, and a serial interface  
with two separate data output pins, housed in a 20-lead TSSOP  
package, which offers the user considerable space-saving advantages  
over alternative solutions. The serial clock input accesses data  
from the part but also provides the clock source for each  
successive-approximation A/D converter. The analog input range for  
the part can be selected to be a 0 V to VREF input or a 2 × VREF input  
with either straight binary or two’s complement output coding.  
The AD7866 has an on-chip 2.5 V reference which can be over-  
driven if an external reference is preferred. In addition, each ADC  
can be supplied with an individual separate external reference.  
AGND  
Figure 3. ADC Conversion Phase  
ANALOG INPUT  
Figure 4 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input structure  
of the AD7866. The two diodes D1 and D2 provide ESD pro-  
tection for the analog inputs. Care must be taken to ensure that  
the analog input signal never exceeds the supply rails by more  
than 300 mV. This will cause these diodes to become forward-  
biased and start conducting current into the substrate. 10 mA  
is the maximum current these diodes can conduct without causing  
irreversible damage to the part. The capacitor C1 in Figure 4  
is typically about 10 pF and can primarily be attributed to pin  
capacitance. The resistor R1 is a lumped component made up  
of the on resistance of a switch. This resistor is typically about  
100 . The capacitor C2 is the ADC sampling capacitor and  
has a capacitance of 20 pF typically. For ac applications, remov-  
ing high-frequency components from the analog input signal is  
recommended by use of an RC low-pass filter on the relevant  
analog input pin. 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 will  
significantly affect the ac performance of the ADC. This may  
necessitate the use of an input buffer amplifier. The choice of  
the op amp will be a function of the particular application.  
The AD7866 also features power-down options to allow power  
saving between conversions. The power-down feature is imple-  
mented across the standard serial interface as described in the  
Modes of Operation section.  
CONVERTER OPERATION  
The AD7866 has two successive-approximation analog-to-digital  
converters, each based around a capacitive DAC. Figures 2 and 3  
show simplified schematics of one of these ADCs. The ADC is  
comprised of control logic, a SAR, and a capacitive DAC, all of  
which are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge from  
the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator back into a bal-  
anced condition. Figure 2 shows the ADC during its acquisition  
phase. SW2 is closed and SW1 is in position A, the comparator is  
held in a balanced condition and the sampling capacitor acquires  
the signal on VA1 for example.

Figure 4. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit  
When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input the source  
impedance should be limited to low values. The maximum  
source impedance will depend on the amount of total harmonic  
distortion (THD) that can be tolerated. The THD will increase  
as the source impedance increases and performance will degrade  
(see TPC 7).  
Figure 2. ADC Acquisition Phase  
When the ADC starts a conversion (see Figure 3), SW2 will  
open and SW1 will move to position B causing the comparator  
to become unbalanced. The Control Logic and the capacitive  
DAC are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge  
from the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator back  
into a balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced  
the conversion is complete. The Control Logic generates the ADC  
output code. Figures 10 and 11 show the ADC transfer functions.  
Analog Input Ranges  
The analog input range for the AD7866 can be selected to be 0 V  
to VREF or 2 × VREF with either straight binary or two’s comple-  
ment output coding. The RANGE pin is used to select both the  
analog input range and the output coding, as shown in Figures 5  
through 8. On the falling edge of CS, point A, the logic level of  
the RANGE pin is checked to determine the analog input range  
of the next conversion. If this pin is tied to a logic low then the  
–10–  
REV. 0  
AD7866  
analog input range will be 0 V to VREF and the output coding  
from the part will be straight binary (for the next conversion). If this  
pin is at a logic high when CS goes low, then the analog input  
range will be 2 × VREF and the output coding for the part will  
be two’s complement. However, if after the falling edge of CS,  
the logic level of the RANGE pin has changed upon the eighth  
falling SCLK edge, point B, the output coding will change to the  
other option without any change in the analog input range. So for  
the next conversion, two’s complement output coding could be selected  
with a 0 V to VREF input range, for example, if the RANGE pin  
is low upon the falling edge of CS and high upon the eighth falling  
SCLK edge, as shown in Figure 7. Figures 5 through 8 show  
examples of timing diagrams when selecting a particular analog input  
range with a particular output coding format. Table I also summarizes  
the required logic level of the RANGE pin for each selection.  
The Logic Input A0 is used to select the pair of channels to be  
converted simultaneously. The Logic state of this pin is also  
checked upon the falling edge of CS and the multiplexers are set  
up for the next conversion. If it is low, the following conversion  
will be performed on Channel 1 of each ADC; if it is high,  
the following conversion will be performed on Channel 2 of  
each ADC.  
Handling Bipolar Input Signals  
Figure 9 shows how useful the combination of the 2 × VREF input  
range and the two’s complement output coding scheme is for  
handling bipolar input signals. If the bipolar input signal is biased  
about VREF and two’s complement output coding is selected,  
then VREF becomes the zero code point, –VREF is negative full-  
scale and +VREF becomes positive full-scale, with a dynamic  
range of 2 × VREF  
.
Transfer Functions  
The designed code transitions occur at successive integer LSB  
values (i.e., 1 LSB, 2 LSBs, etc.). The LSB size is = VREF/4096.  
The ideal transfer characteristic for the AD7866 when straight  
binary coding is selected is shown in Figure 10 and the ideal  
transfer characteristic for the AD7866 when two’s complement  
coding is selected is shown in Figure 11.

Another advantage of SCLK, RANGE, REF SELECT, A0,  
and CS not being restricted by the VDD + 0.3 V limit is the fact  
that power supply sequencing issues are avoided. If one of  
these digital inputs is applied before VDD, there is no risk of  
latch-up as there would be on the analog inputs if a signal greater  
Figure 12. Relevant Connections When Using  
Internal Reference  
Figure 13 shows the connections required when an external  
reference is applied to DCAPA and DCAPB. In this example the same  
reference voltage is applied at each pin; however, a different volt-  
age may be applied at each of these pins for each on-chip ADC.  
An external reference applied at these pins may have a range from  
2 V to 3 V but for specified performance it must be within 1%  
of 2.5 V. Figure 14 shows the third option which is to overdrive the  
internal reference through the VREF pin. This is possible due to the  
series resistance from the VREF pin to the internal reference. This  
external reference can have a range from 2 V to 3 V, but again to get  
as close as possible to the specified performance a 2.5 V reference is  
desirable. DCAPA and DCAPB decouple each on-chip reference buffer  
as shown in Figure 15. If the on-chip 2.5 V reference is being used,  
and is to be applied externally to the rest of the system, it may  
than 0.3 V were applied prior to VDD  
.
VDRIVE  
The AD7866 also has the VDRIVE feature. VDRIVE controls the  
voltage at which the serial interface operates. VDRIVE allows the  
ADC to easily interface to both 3 V and 5 V processors. For  
example, if the AD7866 was operated with a VDD of 5 V, the  
V
DRIVE pin could be powered from a 3 V supply, allowing a large  
dynamic range with low voltage digital processors. For example,  
the AD7866 could be used with the 2 × VREF input range, with a  
VDD of 5 V while still being able to interface to 3 V digital parts.  
REFERENCE SECTION  
The AD7866 has various reference configuration options. The  
REF SELECT pin allows the choice of using an internal 2.5 V  
reference or applying an external reference, or even an individual  
external reference for each on-chip ADC if desired. If the REF  
SELECT pin is tied to AGND then the on-chip 2.5 V reference  
is used as the reference source for both ADC A and ADC B. In  
addition, pins VREF, DCAPA, and DCAPB must be tied to decoupling  
capacitors (100 nF, 470 nF, and 470 nF recommended, respec-  
tively). If the REF SELECT pin is tied to a logic high, then an  
external reference can be supplied to the AD7866 through the  
VREF pin to overdrive the on-chip reference, in which case decoupling  
capacitors are required on DCAPA and DCAPB again. However, if  
the VREF pin is tied to AGND while REF SELECT is tied to a  
logic low, then an individual external reference can be applied to  
both ADC A and ADC B through pins DCAPA and DCAPB,  
respectively. Table II summarizes these reference options.

The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS as described in  
the Serial Interface section. To ensure the part remains fully pow-  
ered up at all times CS must remain low until at least 10 SCLK  
falling edges have elapsed after the falling edge of CS. If CS is  
brought high any time after the 10th SCLK falling edge, but before  
the 16th SCLK falling edge, the part will remain powered up but  
the conversion will be terminated and DOUTA and DOUTB will go  
back into three-state. Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to  
complete the conversion and access the conversion result. The  
DOUT line will not return to three-state after 16 SCLK cycles have  
elapsed, but instead when CS is brought high again. If CS is left  
low for a further 16 SCLK cycles then the result from the other  
ADC on board will also be accessed on the same DOUT line as  
shown in Figure 22 (see Serial Interface section). The STATUS  
bits provided prior to each conversion result will identify which  
ADC the following result will be from. Once 32 SCLK cycles  
have elapsed, the DOUT line will return to three-state on the 32nd  
SCLK falling edge. If CS is brought high prior to this, the DOUT line  
will return to three-state at that point. Hence, CS may idle low after  
32 SCLK cycles, until it is brought high again sometime prior to the  
next conversion (effectively idling CS low), if so desired, as the bus  
will still return to three-state upon completion of the dual result read.

be taken from either the VREF pin or one of the DCAPA or DCAP  
B
pins. If it is taken from the VREF pin, it must be buffered before  
being applied elsewhere as it will not be capable of sourcing more  
than a few microamps. If the reference voltage is taken from  
either the DCAPA pin or DCAPB pin, a buffer is not strictly neces-  
sary. Either pin is capable of sourcing current in the region of  
100 µA; however, the larger the source current requirement, the  
greater the voltage drop seen at the pin. The output impedance of  
each of these pins is typically 50 . In addition, this point repre-  
sents the actual voltage applied to the ADC internally so any  
voltage drop due to the current load or disturbance due to a  
dynamic load will directly affect the ADC conversion. For  
this reason, if a large current source is necessary, or a dynamic  
load is present, it is recommended to use a buffer on the output  
to drive a device.  
Examples of suitable external reference devices that may be  
applied at pins VREF, DCAPA, or DCAPB are the AD780, REF192,  
REF43, or AD1582.  
Once a data transfer is complete and DOUTA and DOUTB have  
returned to three-state, another conversion can be initiated after  
the quiet time, tQUIET, has elapsed by bringing CS low again.  
Partial Power-Down Mode  
MODES OF OPERATION  
This mode is intended for use in applications where slower  
throughput rates are required. Either the ADC is powered down  
between each conversion, or a series of conversions may be per-  
formed at a high throughput rate and the ADC is then powered  
down for a relatively long duration between these bursts of several  
conversions. When the AD7866 is in Partial Power-Down, all  
analog circuitry is powered down except for the on-chip reference  
and reference buffer.  
The mode of operation of the AD7866 is selected by controlling  
the (logic) state of the CS signal during a conversion. There  
are three possible modes of operation, Normal Mode, Partial  
Power-Down Mode, and Full Power-Down Mode. The point at  
which CS is pulled high after the conversion has been initiated  
will determine which power-down mode, if any, the device will  
enter. Similarly, if already in a power-down mode, CS can  
control whether the device will return to normal operation or  
remain in power-down. These modes of operation are designed

To enter Partial Power-Down, the conversion process must be  
interrupted by bringing CS high anywhere after the second falling  
edge of SCLK and before the 10th falling edge of SCLK as shown  
in Figure 17. Once CS has been brought high in this window of  
SCLKs, the part will enter Partial Power-Down and the conver-  
sion that was initiated by the falling edge of CS will be terminated  
and DOUTA and DOUTB will go back into three-state. If CS is  
brought high before the second SCLK falling edge, the part  
will remain in normal mode and will not power down. This will  
avoid accidental power-down due to glitches on the CS line.  
in Full Power-Down, all analog circuitry is powered down. Full  
Power-Down is entered in a similar way as Partial Power-Down,  
except the timing sequence shown in Figure 17 must be executed  
twice. The conversion process must be interrupted in a similar  
fashion by bringing CS high anywhere after the second falling  
edge of SCLK and before the 10th falling edge of SCLK. The device  
will enter Partial Power Down at this point. To reach Full Power-  
Down, the next conversion cycle must be interrupted in the  
same way, as shown in Figure 19. Once CS has been brought high  
in this window of SCLKs, the part will power down completely.  
In order to exit this mode of operation and power the AD7866 up  
again, a dummy conversion is performed. On the falling edge of CS  
the device will begin to power up, and will continue to power up as  
long as CS is held low until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK.  
In the case of an external reference, the device will be fully pow-  
ered up once 16 SCLKs have elapsed and valid data will result  
from the next conversion as shown in Figure 18. If CS is brought  
high before the second falling edge of SCLK, the AD7866 will again  
go into partial power-down. This avoids accidental power-up due  
to glitches on the CS line; although the device may begin to power  
up on the falling edge of CS, it will power down again on the rising  
edge of CS. If the AD7866 is already in Partial Power-Down mode  
and CS is brought high between the second and tenth falling edges  
of SCLK, the device will enter Full Power-Down mode. For more  
information on the power-up times associated with partial power-  
down in various configurations, see the Power-Up Times section.  
NOTE: It is not necessary to complete the 16 SCLKs once CS  
has been brought high to enter a power-down mode.  
To exit Full Power-Down, and power the AD7866 up again, a  
dummy conversion is performed, as when powering up from  
Partial Power-Down. On the falling edge of CS the device  
will begin to power up, and will continue to power up as long as  
CS is held low until after the falling edge of the 10th SCLK.  
The power-up time required must elapse before a conversion  
can be initiated as shown in Figure 20. See the Power-up Times  
section for the power-up times associated with the AD7866.  
POWER-UP TIMES  
The AD7866 has two power-down modes, Partial Power-  
Down and Full Power-Down, which are described in detail in  
the Modes of Operation section. This section deals with the  
power-up time required when coming out either of these  
modes. It should be noted that the power-up times quoted  
apply with the recommended capacitors on the VREF, DCAPA,  
and DCAPB pins in place.  
Full Power-Down Mode  
This mode is intended for use in applications where slower  
throughput rates are required than those in the Partial Power-  
Down mode, as power-up from a Full Power-Down takes sub-  
stantially longer than that from partial power-down. This mode is  
more suited to applications where a series of conversions performed  
at a relatively high throughput rate would be followed by a long  
period of inactivity and hence power-down. When the AD7866 is

be allowed from the falling edge of CS, shown in Figure 20 as

time is typically 4 µs; but if an external reference is being used, the  
power-up time is typically 1 µs. This means that with any fre-  
quency of SCLK up to 20 MHz, one dummy cycle will always be  
sufficient to allow the device to power up from Partial Power-Down  
(see Figure 18) when using an external reference. Once the dummy  
cycle is complete, the ADC will be fully powered up and the input  
signal will be acquired properly. A dummy cycle may well be suffi-  
cient to power up the part when using an internal reference also,  
provided the SCLK is slow enough to allow the required power-  
up time to elapse before a valid conversion is requested. In addition  
to this, it should be ensured that the quiet time, tQUIET, has still  
been allowed from the point where the bus goes back into three-  
state after the dummy conversion to the next falling edge of CS.  
Alternatively, instead of slowing the SCLK to make the dummy  
cycle long enough, the CS high time could just be extended to  
include the required power-up time as in Figure 20 when power-  
ing up from Full Power-Down.  
mode. Because of this, it is best to allow a dummy cycle to elapse to  
ensure the part is fully powered up before attempting a valid con-  
version. Likewise, if it is intended to keep the part in the partial  
power-down mode immediately after the supplies are applied,  
two dummy cycles must be initiated. The first dummy cycle must  
hold CS low until after the 10th SCLK falling edge (see Figure 16);  
in the second cycle CS must be brought high before the 10th  
SCLK edge but after the second SCLK falling edge (see Figure 17).  
Alternatively, if it is intended to place the part in Full Power-  
Down mode when the supplies have been applied, three dummy  
cycles must be initiated. The first dummy cycle must hold CS low  
until after the 10th SCLK falling edge (see Figure 16); the  
second and third dummy cycles place the part in Full Power-  
Down (see Figure 19). See the Modes of Operation section.  
Once supplies are applied to the AD7866, enough time must be  
allowed for any external reference to power up and charge any  
reference capacitor to its final value, or enough time must be  
allowed for the internal reference buffer to charge the various  
reference buffer decoupling capacitors to their final values. Then,  
to place the AD7866 in normal mode, a dummy cycle (1 µs to  
4 µs approximately) should be initiated. If the first valid con-  
version is then performed directly after the dummy conversion,  
care must be taken to ensure that adequate acquisition time has  
been allowed. As mentioned earlier, when powering up from the  
power-down mode, the part will return to track upon the first  
SCLK edge applied after the falling edge of CS. However, when  
the ADC powers up initially after supplies are applied, the track-  
and-hold will already be in track. This means that (assuming one  
has the facility to monitor the ADC supply current) if the ADC  
powers up in the desired mode of operation and thus a dummy  
cycle is not required to change mode, then neither is a dummy  
cycle required to place the track-and-hold into track. If no current  
monitoring facility is available, the relevant dummy cycle(s)  
should be performed to ensure the part is in the required mode.  
The difference in the power-up time needed, when coming out  
of Partial Power-Down, between the two cases where an internal  
or external reference is being used, is primarily due to the on-chip  
reference buffers. These power down in Partial Power-Down  
mode and must be powered up again if the internal reference is  
being used, but do not need to be powered up again if an exter-  
nal reference is being used. The time needed to power these  
buffers up is not just their own power-up time but also the time  
required to charge up the decoupling capacitors present on the  
pins VREF, DCAPA, and DCAPB.  
It should also be noted that when powering up from Partial  
Power-Down, the track-and-hold, which was in hold mode  
while the part was powered down, returns to track mode after  
the first SCLK edge the part receives after the falling edge of  
CS. This is shown as point A in Figure 18.  
When power supplies are first applied to the AD7866, the ADC  
may power up in either of the power-down modes or the normal

POWER VERSUS THROUGHPUT RATE  
24 mW for 2 µs during each conversion cycle. For the remainder of  
the conversion cycle, 8 µs, the part remains in Partial Power-Down  
mode. The AD7866 can be said to dissipate 2.8 mW for the  
remaining 8 µs of the conversion cycle. If the throughput rate is  
100 kSPS, the cycle time is 10 µs and the average power dissipated  
during each cycle is (2/10) ϫ (24 mW) + (8/10) ϫ (2.8 mW) =  
7.04 mW. If VDD = 3 V, SCLK = 20 MHz and the device is again  
in Partial Power-Down mode between conversions, the power  
dissipated during normal operation is 8.4 mW. The AD7866 can  
be said to dissipate 8.4 mW for 2 ms during each conversion  
cycle and 1.68 mW for the remaining 8 ms where the part is  
in Partial Power-Down. With a throughput rate of 100 kSPS,  
the average power dissipated during each conversion cycle is  
(2/10) ϫ (8.4 mW) + (8/10) ϫ (1.68 mW) = 3.02 mW. Figure 21  
shows the power versus throughput rate when using the Partial  
Power-Down mode between conversions with both 5 V and 3 V  
supplies for the AD7866.  
By using the Partial Power-Down mode on the AD7866 when not  
converting, the average power consumption of the ADC decreases  
at lower throughput rates. Figure 21 shows how as the throughput  
rate is reduced, the part remains in its partial power-down state longer  
and the average power consumption over time drops accordingly.

Figure 21. Power vs. Throughput for Partial Power-Down  
The CS signal initiates the data transfer and conversion process.  
The falling edge of CS puts the track-and-hold into hold mode,  
takes the bus out of three-state and the analog input is sampled at  
this point. The conversion is also initiated at this point and will  
require 16 SCLK cycles to complete. Once 13 SCLK falling edges  
have elapsed, then the track and hold will go back into track on  
the next SCLK rising edge as shown in Figure 22 at point B. On  
For example, if the AD7866 is operated in a continuous sampling  
mode with a throughput rate of 100 kSPS and an SCLK of 20 MHz  
(VDD = 5 V), and the device is placed in Partial Power-Down mode  
between conversions, then the power consumption is calculated  
as follows. The maximum power dissipation during normal  
operation is 24 mW (VDD = 5 V). If the power-up time allowed  
from Partial Power-Down is one dummy cycle, i.e., 1 µs, (assumes  
use of an external reference) and the remaining conversion time is  
another cycle, i.e., 1 µs, then the AD7866 can be said to dissipate  
the rising edge of CS, the conversion will be terminated and DOUT  
and DOUTB will go back into three-state. If CS is not brought

The polarity of this bit reflects the analog input range that has been selected with the RANGE

at a logic low providing an analog input range from 0 V to VREF for this conversion. If it is a 1,  
it means that in the previous transfer upon the falling edge of CS, the RANGE pin was at a logic high  
resulting in an analog input range of 2 × VREF selected for this conversion. See Analog Input section.

This bit indicates on which channel the conversion is being performed, Channel 1 or Channel 2 of the

if it is a 1, the result will be from Channel 2 of the ADC in question.  
This bit indicates which ADC the conversion result is from. If this bit is a 0, the result is from ADC A;  
and if it is a 1, the result is from ADC B. This is especially useful if only one serial port is available  
for use and one DOUT line is used, as shown in Figure 23.

DOUTA, the data from conversion B will be output on DOUTA.  
Likewise, if CS is held low for a further 16 SCLK cycles on DOUTB,  
the data from conversion A will be output on DOUTB. This is illus-  
trated in Figure 23 where the case for DOUTA is shown. Note that  
in this case the DOUT line in use will go back into three-state on  
the 32nd SCLK rising edge or the rising edge of CS, whichever  
occurs first.  
The SPORT0 control register should be set up as follows:  
TFSW = RFSW = 1, Alternate Framing  
INVRFS = INVTFS = 1, Active Low Frame Signal  
DTYPE = 00, Right Justify Data  
SLEN = 1111, 16-Bit Data Words  
ISCLK = 1, Internal Serial Clock  
TFSR = RFSR = 1, Frame Every Word  
IRFS = 0  
Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to perform the conversion  
process and to access data from one conversion on either data  
line of the AD7866. CS going low provides the leading zero to  
be read in by the microcontroller or DSP. The remaining data is  
then clocked out by subsequent SCLK falling edges, beginning  
with the first of three data STATUS bits, thus the first falling clock  
edge on the serial clock has the leading zero provided and also  
clocks out the first of three STATUS bits. The final bit in the  
data transfer is valid on the 16th falling edge, having being clocked  
out on the previous (15th) falling edge. In applications with a  
slower SCLK, it is possible to read in data on each SCLK rising  
edge, i.e., the first rising edge of SCLK after the CS falling edge  
would have the leading zero provided and the 15th rising SCLK  
edge would have DB0 provided.The three STATUS bits that  
follow the leading zero provide information with respect to  
the conversion result that follows them on the DOUT line in use.  
Table III shows how these identification bits can be interpreted.

To implement the power-down modes on the AD7866 SLEN  
should be set to 1001 to issue an 8-bit SCLK burst. The con-  
nection diagram is shown in Figure 24. The ADSP-218x has the  
TFS0 and RFS0 of the SPORT0 and the RFS1 of SPORT1 tied  
together, with TFS0 set as an output and both RFS0 and RFS1  
set as inputs. The DSP operates in Alternate Framing Mode  
and the SPORT control register is set up as described. The Frame  
synchronization signal generated on the TFS is tied to CS and  
as with all signal processing applications equidistant sampling is  
necessary. However, in this example, the timer interrupt is used  
to control the sampling rate of the ADC and under certain con-  
ditions, equidistant sampling may not be achieved.  
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING  
The serial interface on the AD7866 allows the parts to be directly  
connected to a range of many different microprocessors. This  
section explains how to interface the AD7866 with some of the  
more common microcontroller and DSP serial interface protocols.  
AD7866 to ADSP-218x  
The ADSP-218x family of DSPs are directly interfaced to the  
AD7866 without any glue logic required. The VDRIVE pin of the  
AD7866 takes the same supply voltage as that of the ADSP-218x.  
This allows the ADC to operate at a higher supply voltage than  
the serial interface, i.e., ADSP-218x, if necessary. This example  
shows both DOUT A and DOUT B of the AD7866 connected to  
both serial ports of the ADSP-218x.  
The Timer and other registers are loaded with a value that  
will provide an interrupt at the required sample interval. When  
an interrupt is received, a value is transmitted with TFS/DT  
(ADC control word). The TFS is used to control the RFS and  
hence the reading of data. The frequency of the serial clock is set  
in the SCLKDIV register. When the instruction to transmit with  
TFS is given, (i.e., AX0 = TX0), the state of the SCLK is checked.  
The DSP will wait until the SCLK has gone High, Low, and  
High before transmission will start. If the timer and SCLK values  
are chosen such that the instruction to transmit occurs on or near  
the rising edge of SCLK, the data may be transmitted or it may  
wait until the next clock edge.

For example, if the ADSP-2189 had a 20 MHz crystal, such that  
it had a master clock frequency of 40 MHz then the master cycle  
time would be 25 ns. If the SCLKDIV register is loaded with  
the value 3, a SCLK of 5 MHz is obtained, and eight master  
clock periods will elapse for every 1 SCLK period. Depending  
on the throughput rate selected, if the timer register was loaded  
with the value, say 803, (803 + 1 = 804) 100.5 SCLKs will occur  
between interrupts and subsequently between transmit instructions.  
This situation will result in non-equidistant sampling as the  
transmit instruction is occurring on a SCLK edge. If the number  
of SCLKs between interrupts is a whole integer figure of N,  
equidistant sampling will be implemented by the DSP.  
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 25. It should be  
noted that for signal processing applications, it is imperative  
that the frame synchronization signal from the TMS320C541  
will provide equidistant sampling. The VDRIVE pin of the AD7866  
takes the same supply voltage as that of the TMS320C541. This  
allows the ADC to operate at a higher voltage than the serial  
interface, i.e., TMS320C541, if necessary.  
AD7866 to DSP-563xx  
The connection diagram in Figure 26 shows how the AD7866  
can be connected to the ESSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) of the  
DSP-563xx family of DSPs from Motorola. Each ESSI (two on-board)  
is operated in Synchronous Mode (Bit SYN = 1 in CRB register)  
with internally generated word length frame sync for both Tx and  
Rx (bits FSL1 = 0 and FSL0 = 0 in CRB). Normal operation  
of the ESSI is selected by making MOD = 0 in the CRB. Set the  
word length to 16 by setting bits WL1 = 1 and WL0 = 0 in CRA.  
To implement the power-down modes on the AD7866 the  
word length can be changed to eight bits by setting bits WL1 = 0  
and WL0 = 0 in CRA. The FSP Bit in the CRB should be set to 1  
so the frame sync is negative. It should be noted that for signal pro-  
cessing applications, it is imperative that the frame synchronization  
signal from the DSP-563xx will provide equidistant sampling.

In the example shown in Figure 26, the serial clock is taken from  
the ESSI0 so the SCK0 pin must be set as an output, SCKD = 1,  
while the SCK1 pin is set up as an input, SCKD = 0. The frame  
sync signal is taken from SC02 on ESSI0, so SCD2 = 1, while  
on ESSI1, SCD2 = 0 so SC12 is configured as an input. The  
VDRIVE pin of the AD7866 takes the same supply voltage as that  
of the DSP-563xx. This allows the ADC to operate at a higher  
voltage than the serial interface, i.e., DSP-563xx, if necessary.

APPLICATION HINTS  
The serial interface on the TMS320C541 uses a continuous serial  
clock and frame synchronization signals to synchronize the data  
transfer operations with peripheral devices like the AD7866. The  
CS input allows easy interfacing between the TMS320C541 and  
the AD7866 without any glue logic required. The serial ports of  
the TMS320C541 are set up to operate in burst mode with internal  
CLKX (Tx serial clock on serial port 0) and FSX0 (Tx frame  
sync from serial port 0). The serial port control registers (SPC)  
must have the following setup:  
Grounding and Layout  
The analog and digital supplies to the AD7866 are independent  
and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between the analog  
and digital sections of the device. The AD7866 has very good  
immunity to noise on the power supplies as can be seen by the  
PSRR vs. Supply Ripple Frequency plots, TPC 3a – TPC 4b.  
However, care should still be taken with regard to grounding  
and layout.  
SPC0: FO = 0, FSM = 1, MCM = 1 and TxM = 1  
SPC1: FO = 0, FSM = 1, MCM = 0 and TxM = 0  
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7866 should be de-  
signed such 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. A minimum etch  
technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best  
The format bit, FO, may be set to 1 to set the word length to 8 bits,  
in order to implement the power-down modes on the AD7866.

shielding. Both AGND pins of the AD7866 should be sunk in the  
AGND plane. Digital and analog ground planes should be joined  
at only one place. If the AD7866 is in a system where multiple  
devices require an AGND-to-DGND connection, the connection  
should still be made at one point only, a star ground point that  
should be established as close as possible to the AD7866.  
Inductance (ESI), such as common ceramic or surface mount types,  
which provide a low impedance path to ground at high frequen-  
cies to handle transient currents due to internal logic switching.  
Figure 27 shows the recommended supply decoupling scheme.  
For information on the decoupling requirements of each reference  
configuration, see the Reference section.  
Avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple  
noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be allowed  
to run under the AD7866 to avoid noise coupling. The power  
supply lines to the AD7866 should use as large a trace as pos-  
sible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of  
glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals like  
clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating  
noise to other sections of the board, and clock signals should  
never be 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 will reduce 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.

Evaluating the AD7866 Performance  
The recommended layout for the AD7866 is outlined in the evalu-  
ation board for the AD7866. The evaluation board package includes  
a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documentation, and  
software for controlling the board from the PC via the EVAL-  
BOARD CONTROLLER. The EVAL-BOARD CONTROLLER  
can be used in conjunction with the AD7866 Evaluation board, as  
well as many other Analog Devices evaluation boards ending in the  
CB designator, to demonstrate/evaluate the ac and dc performance  
of the AD7866.  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should be  
decoupled with 10 µF tantalum in parallel with 0.1 µF capacitors  
to AGND. All digital supplies should have at least a 0.1 µF disc  
ceramic capacitor to DGND. VDRIVE should have a 0.1 µF ceramic  
capacitor to DGND. 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  
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier transform)  
and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7866.
