ADC121S051  
Single Channel, 200 to 500 ksps, 12-Bit A/D Converter  
General Description  
Features  
n Specified over a range of sample rates.  
n 6-lead LLP and SOT-23 packages  
n Variable power management  
The ADC121S051 is a low-power, single channel CMOS  
12-bit analog-to-digital converter with a high-speed serial  
interface. Unlike the conventional practice of specifying per-  
formance at a single sample rate only, the ADC121S051 is  
fully specified over a sample rate range of 200 ksps to  
500 ksps. The converter is based upon a successive-  
approximation register architecture with an internal track-  
and-hold circuit.  
n Single power supply with 2.7V - 5.25V range  
n SPI /QSPI /MICROWIRE/DSP compatible

n Power Consumption  
— 3.6V Supply  
— 5.25V Supply  
The ADC121S051 operates with a single supply that can  
range from +2.7V to +5.25V. Normal power consumption  
using a +3.6V or +5.25V supply is 1.7 mW and 8.7 mW,  
respectively. The power-down feature reduces the power  
consumption to as low as 2.6 µW using a +5.25V supply.  
1.7 mW (typ)  
8.7 mW (typ)  
Applications  
n Portable Systems  
n Remote Data Acquisition  
The ADC121S051 is packaged in 6-lead LLP and SOT-23  
packages. Operation over the industrial temperature range  
of −40˚C to +85˚C is guaranteed.

MISSING CODES are those output codes that will never  
appear at the ADC outputs. The ADC121S051 is guaranteed  
not to have any missing codes.  
Specification Definitions  
ACQUISITION TIME is the time required to acquire the input  
voltage. That is, it is time required for the hold capacitor to  
charge up to the input voltage.  
OFFSET ERROR is the deviation of the first code transition  
(000...000) to (000...001) from the ideal (i.e. GND + 0.5  
LSB).  
APERTURE DELAY is the time between the fourth falling  
SCLK edge of a conversion and the time when the input  
signal is acquired or held for conversion.  
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO (SNR) is the ratio, expressed in  
dB, of the rms value of the input signal to the rms value of the  
sum of all other spectral components below one-half the  
sampling frequency, not including harmonics or d.c.  
APERTURE JITTER (APERTURE UNCERTAINTY) is the  
variation in aperture delay from sample to sample. Aperture  
jitter manifests itself as noise in the output.  
SIGNAL TO NOISE PLUS DISTORTION (S/N+D or SINAD)  
Is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of the input  
signal to the rms value of all of the other spectral compo-  
nents below half the clock frequency, including harmonics  
but excluding d.c.  
CONVERSION TIME is the time required, after the input  
voltage is acquired, for the ADC to convert the input voltage  
to a digital word.  
DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of  
the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1 LSB.  
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the differ-  
ence, expressed in dB, between the desired signal ampli-  
tude to the amplitude of the peak spurious spectral compo-  
nent, where a spurious spectral component is any signal  
present in the output spectrum that is not present at the input  
and may or may not be a harmonic.  
DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time that a repetitive digital  
waveform is high to the total time of one period. The speci-  
fication here refers to the SCLK.  
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE  
BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise and  
Distortion  
or  
SINAD.  
ENOB  
is  
defined  
as  
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio, ex-  
pressed in dB or dBc, of the rms total of the first five  
harmonic components at the output to the rms level of the  
input signal frequency as seen at the output. THD is calcu-  
lated as  
(SINAD − 1.76) / 6.02 and says that the converter is equiva-  
lent to a perfect ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits.  
FULL POWER BANDWIDTH is a measure of the frequency  
at which the reconstructed output fundamental drops 3 dB  
below its low frequency value for a full scale input.  
GAIN ERROR is the deviation of the last code transition  
(111...110) to (111...111) from the ideal (VREF − 1.5 LSB),  
after adjusting for offset error.  
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of the  
where Af1 is the RMS power of the input frequency at the  
output and Af2 through Af6 are the RMS power in the first 5  
harmonic frequencies.  
deviation of each individual code from a line drawn from  
negative full scale (1⁄  
2
LSB below the first code transition)  
through positive full scale (1⁄  
2
LSB above the last code  
transition). The deviation of any given code from this straight  
line is measured from the center of that code value.  
THROUGHPUT TIME is the minimum time required between  
the start of two successive conversion. It is the acquisition  
time plus the conversion time.  
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of  
additional spectral components as a result of two sinusoidal  
frequencies being applied to the ADC input at the same time.  
It is defined as the ratio of the power in the second and third  
order intermodulation products to the sum of the power in  
both of the original frequencies. IMD is usually expressed in  
dB.

Figure 4 shows the device in hold mode: switch SW1 con-  
nects the sampling capacitor to ground, maintaining the  
sampled voltage, and switch SW2 unbalances the compara-  
tor. The control logic then instructs the charge-redistribution  
DAC to add or subtract fixed amounts of charge from the  
sampling capacitor until the comparator is balanced. When  
the comparator is balanced, the digital word supplied to the  
DAC is the digital representation of the analog input voltage.  
The device moves from hold mode to track mode on the 13th  
rising edge of SCLK.  
Applications Information  
1.0 ADC121S051 OPERATION  
The ADC121S051 is a successive-approximation analog-to-  
digital converters designed around a charge-redistribution  
digital-to-analog converter core. Simplified schematics of the  
ADC121S051 in both track and hold modes are shown in  
Figure 3 and Figure 4, respectively. In Figure 3, the device is  
in track mode: switch SW1 connects the sampling capacitor  
to the input, and SW2 balances the comparator inputs. The  
device is in this state until CS is brought low, at which point  
the device moves to the hold mode.

edge of CS. The converter moves from hold mode to track  
mode on the 13th rising edge of SCLK (see Figure 2). The  
SDATA pin will be placed back into TRI-STATE after the 16th  
falling edge of SCLK, or at the rising edge of CS, whichever  
occurs first. After a conversion is completed, the quiet time  
(tQUIET) must be satisfied before bringing CS low again to  
begin another conversion.  
The serial interface timing diagram for the ADC121S051 is  
shown in Figure 2. CS is chip select, which initiates conver-  
sions on the ADC121S051 and frames the serial data trans-  
fers. SCLK (serial clock) controls both the conversion pro-  
cess and the timing of serial data. SDATA is the serial data  
out pin, where a conversion result is found as a serial data  
stream.  
Sixteen SCLK cycles are required to read a complete  
sample from the ADC121S051. The sample bits (including  
leading zeroes) are clocked out on falling edges of SCLK,  
and are intended to be clocked in by a receiver on subse-  
quent falling edges of SCLK. The ADC121S051 will produce  
three leading zero bits on SDATA, followed by twelve data  
bits, most significant first.  
Basic operation of the ADC121S051 begins with CS going  
low, which initiates a conversion process and data transfer.  
Subsequent rising and falling edges of SCLK will be labelled  
with reference to the falling edge of CS; for example, "the  
third falling edge of SCLK" shall refer to the third falling edge  
of SCLK after CS goes low.  
If CS goes low before the rising edge of SCLK, an additional  
(fourth) zero bit may be captured by the next falling edge of  
SCLK.  
At the fall of CS, the SDATA pin comes out of TRI-STATE,  
and the converter moves from track mode to hold mode. The  
input signal is sampled and held for conversion on the falling

5.0 ANALOG INPUTS  
Applications Information (Continued)  
An equivalent circuit for the ADC121S051’s input is shown in  
Figure 7. Diodes D1 and D2 provide ESD protection for the  
analog inputs. At no time should the analog input go beyond  
(VA + 300 mV) or (GND − 300 mV), as these ESD diodes will  
begin conducting, which could result in erratic operation.  
3.0 ADC121S051 TRANSFER FUNCTION  
The output format of the ADC121S051 is straight binary.  
Code transitions occur midway between successive integer  
LSB values. The LSB width for the ADC121S051 is VA/4096.  
The ideal transfer characteristic is shown in Figure 5. The  
transition from an output code of 0000 0000 0000 to a code  
of 0000 0000 0001 is at 1/2 LSB, or a voltage of VA/8192.  
Other code transitions occur at steps of one LSB.  
The capacitor C1 in Figure 7 has a typical value of 4 pF, and  
is mainly the package pin capacitance. Resistor R1 is the on  
resistance of the track / hold switch, and is typically 500  
ohms. Capacitor C2 is the ADC121S051 sampling capacitor  
and is typically 26 pF. The ADC121S051 will deliver best  
performance when driven by a low-impedance source to  
eliminate distortion caused by the charging of the sampling  
capacitance. This is especially important when using the  
ADC121S051 to sample AC signals. Also important when  
sampling dynamic signals is an anti-aliasing filter.

6.0 DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS  
4.0 TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT  
The ADC121S051 digital inputs (SCLK and CS) are not  
limited by the same maximum ratings as the analog inputs.  
The digital input pins are instead limited to +5.25V with  
respect to GND, regardless of VA, the supply voltage. This  
allows the ADC121S051 to be interfaced with a wide range  
of logic levels, independent of the supply voltage.  
A typical application of the ADC121S051 is shown in  
Figure 6. Power is provided in this example by the National  
Semiconductor LP2950 low-dropout voltage regulator, avail-  
able in a variety of fixed and adjustable output voltages. The  
power supply pin is bypassed with a capacitor network lo-  
cated close to the ADC121S051. Because the reference for  
the ADC121S051 is the supply voltage, any noise on the  
supply will degrade device noise performance. To keep noise  
off the supply, use a dedicated linear regulator for this de-  
vice, or provide sufficient decoupling from other circuitry to  
keep noise off the ADC121S051 supply pin. Because of the  
ADC121S051’s low power requirements, it is also possible to  
use a precision reference as a power supply to maximize  
performance. The three-wire interface is shown connected to  
a microprocessor or DSP.  
7.0 MODES OF OPERATION  
The ADC121S051 has two possible modes of operation:  
normal mode, and shutdown mode. The ADC121S051 en-  
ters normal mode (and a conversion process is begun) when  
CS is pulled low. The device will enter shutdown mode if CS  
is pulled high before the tenth falling edge of SCLK after CS  
is pulled low, or will stay in normal mode if CS remains low.  
Once in shutdown mode, the device will stay there until CS is  
brought low again. By varying the ratio of time spent in the  
normal and shutdown modes, a system may trade-off  
throughput for power consumption, with a sample rate as low  
as zero.  
7.1 Normal Mode  
The fastest possible throughput is obtained by leaving the  
ADC121S051 in normal mode at all times, so there are no  
power-up delays. To keep the device in normal mode con-  
tinuously, CS must be kept low until after the 10th falling  
edge of SCLK after the start of a conversion (remember that  
a conversion is initiated by bringing CS low).  
If CS is brought high after the 10th falling edge, but before  
the 16th falling edge, the device will remain in normal mode,  
but the current conversion will be aborted, and SDATA will  
return to TRI-STATE (truncating the output word).

FIGURE 6. Typical Application Circuit  
Sixteen SCLK cycles are required to read all of a conversion  
word from the device. After sixteen SCLK cycles have

To enter shutdown mode, a conversion must be interrupted  
by bringing CS high anytime between the second and tenth  
falling edges of SCLK, as shown in Figure 8. Once CS has  
been brought high in this manner, the device will enter  
shutdown mode; the current conversion will be aborted and  
SDATA will enter TRI-STATE. If CS is brought high before the  
second falling edge of SCLK, the device will not change  
mode; this is to avoid accidentally changing mode as a result  
of noise on the CS line.  
Applications Information (Continued)  
elapsed, CS may be idled either high or low until the next  
conversion. If CS is idled low, it must be brought high again  
before the start of the next conversion, which begins when  
CS is again brought low.  
After sixteen SCLK cycles, SDATA returns to TRI-STATE.  
Another conversion may be started, after tQUIET has  
elapsed, by bringing CS low again.  
7.2 Shutdown Mode  
Shutdown mode is appropriate for applications that either do  
not sample continuously, or it is acceptable to trade through-  
put for power consumption. When the ADC121S051 is in  
shutdown mode, all of the analog circuitry is turned off.  
20144616  
FIGURE 8. Entering Shutdown Mode  
20144617  
FIGURE 9. Entering Normal Mode  
To exit shutdown mode, bring CS back low. Upon bringing  
CS low, the ADC121S051 will begin powering up (power-up  
time is specified in the Timing Specifications table). This  
power-up delay results in the first conversion result being  
unusable. The second conversion performed after power-up,  
however, is valid, as shown in Figure 9.  
When the VA supply is first applied, the ADC121S051 may  
power up in either of the two modes: normal or shutdown. As  
such, one dummy conversion should be performed after  
start-up, as described in the previous paragraph. The part  
may then be placed into either normal mode or the shutdown  
mode, as described in Sections 7.1 and 7.2.  
If CS is brought back high before the 10th falling edge of  
SCLK, the device will return to shutdown mode. This is done  
to avoid accidentally entering normal mode as a result of  
noise on the CS line. To exit shutdown mode and remain in  
normal mode, CS must be kept low until after the 10th falling  
edge of SCLK. The ADC121S051 will be fully powered-up  
after 16 SCLK cycles.  
When the ADC121S051 is operated continuously in normal  
mode, the maximum throughput is fSCLK / 20. Throughput  
may be traded for power consumption by running fSCLK at its  
maximum specified rate and performing fewer conversions  
per unit time, raising the ADC121S051 CS line after the 10th  
and before the 15th fall of SCLK of each conversion. A plot of  
typical power consumption versus throughput is shown in  
the Typical Performance Curves section. To calculate the  
power consumption for a given throughput, multiply the frac-  
tion of time spent in the normal mode by the normal mode  
power consumption and add the fraction of time spent in  
shutdown mode multiplied by the shutdown mode power  
consumption. Note that the curve of power consumption vs.  
throughput is essentially linear. This is because the power  
consumption in the shutdown mode is so small that it can be  
ignored for all practical purposes.  
8.0 POWER MANAGEMENT  
The ADC121S051 takes time to power-up, either after first  
applying VA, or after returning to normal mode from shut-  
down mode. This corresponds to one "dummy" conversion  
for any SCLK frequency within the specifications in this  
document. After this first dummy conversion, the  
ADC121S051 will perform conversions properly. Note that  
the tQUIET time must still be included between the first  
dummy conversion and the second valid conversion.

noise in the substrate that will degrade noise performance if  
that current is large enough. The larger the output capaci-  
tance, the more current flows through the die substrate and  
the greater is the noise coupled into the analog channel,  
degrading noise performance.  
Applications Information (Continued)  
9.0 POWER SUPPLY NOISE CONSIDERATIONS  
The charging of any output load capacitance requires cur-  
rent from the power supply, VA. The current pulses required  
from the supply to charge the output capacitance will cause  
voltage variations on the supply. If these variations are large  
enough, they could degrade SNR and SINAD performance  
of the ADC. Furthermore, discharging the output capaci-  
tance when the digital output goes from a logic high to a logic  
low will dump current into the die substrate, which is resis-  
tive. Load discharge currents will cause "ground bounce"  
To keep noise out of the power supply, keep the output load  
capacitance as small as practical. It is good practice to use a  
100 series resistor at the ADC output, located as close to  
the ADC output pin as practical. This will limit the charge and  
discharge current of the output capacitance and improve  
noise performance.
