ADC1241 Self-Calibrating 12-Bit Plus  
Sign mP-Compatible A/D Converter  
with Sample-and-Hold  
General Description  
The ADC1241 is a CMOS 12-bit plus sign successive ap-  
proximation analog-to-digital converter. On request, the  
ADC1241 goes through a self-calibration cycle that adjusts  
g
positive linearity and full-scale errors to less than (/2 LSB  
each and zero error to less than 1 LSB. The ADC1241

The analog input to the ADC1241 is tracked and held by the  
internal circuitry, and therefore does not require an external  
sample-and-hold. A unipolar analog input voltage range (0V

2.0 Functional Description  
The ADC1241 is a 12-bit plus sign A/D converter with the  
capability of doing Auto-Zero or Auto-Cal routines to mini-  
mize zero, full-scale and linearity errors. It is a successive-  
approximation A/D converter consisting of a DAC, compar-  
ator and a successive-approximation register (SAR). Auto-  
Zero is an internal calibration sequence that corrects for the  
A/D’s zero error caused by the comparator’s offset voltage.  
Auto-Cal is a calibration cycle that not only corrects zero  
error but also corrects for full-scale and linearity errors  
caused by DAC inaccuracies. Auto-Cal minimizes the errors  
of the ADC1241 without the need of trimming during its fab-  
rication. An Auto-Cal cycle can restore the accuracy of the  
ADC1241 at any time, which ensures its long term stability.

On power up, a calibration sequence should be initiated by  
pulsing CAL low with CS, RD, and WR high. To acknowl-  
edge the CAL signal, EOC goes low after the falling edge of  
CAL, and remains low during the calibration cycle of 1396  
clock periods. During the calibration sequence, first the  
comparator’s offset is determined, then the capacitive  
DAC’s mismatch error is found. Correction factors for these  
errors are then stored in internal RAM.

CC  
Vb by more than 50 mV.  
CS (10)  
RD (11)  
WR (7)  
The Chip Select control input. This input is  
active low and enables the WR and RD func-  
tions.  
The Read control input. With both CS and RD  
low the TRI-STATE output buffers are en-  
abled and the INT output is reset high.  
A conversion is initiated by taking CS and WR low. The AZ  
(Auto Zero) signal line should be tied high or low during the  
conversion process. If AZ is low an auto zero cycle, which  
takes approximately 26 clock periods, occurs before the ac-  
tual conversion is started. The auto zero cycle determines  
the correction factors for the comparator’s offset voltage. If  
AZ is high, the auto zero cycle is skipped. Next the analog  
input is sampled for 7 clock periods, and held in the capaci-  
tive DAC’s ladder structure. The EOC then goes low, signal-  
ing that the analog input is no longer being sampled and  
that the A/D successive approximation conversion has  
started.  
The Write control input. The converison is  
started on the rising edge of the WR pulse  
when CS is low.  
CLK (8)  
CAL (9)  
The external clock input pin. The clock fre-  
quency range is 500 kHz to 4 MHz.  
The Auto-Calibration control input. When  
CAL is low the ADC1241 is reset and a cali-  
bration cycle is initiated. During the calibra-  
tion cycle the values of the comparator offset  
voltage and the mismatch errors in the ca-  
pacitor reference ladder are determined and  
stored in RAM. These values are used to cor-  
rect the errors during a normal cycle of A/D  
conversion.  
During a conversion, the sampled input voltage is succes-  
sively compared to the output of the DAC. First, the ac-  
quired input voltage is compared to analog ground to deter-  
mine its polarity. The sign bit is set low for positive input  
voltages and high for negative. Next the MSB of the DAC is  
set high with the rest of the bits low. If the input voltage is  
greater than the output of the DAC, then the MSB is left  
high; otherwise it is set low. The next bit is set high, making  
the output of the DAC three quarters or one quarter of full  
scale. A comparison is done and if the input is greater than  
the new DAC value this bit remains high; if the input is less  
than the new DAC value the bit is set low. This process  
continues until each bit has been tested. The result is then  
stored in the output latch of the ADC1241. Next EOC goes  
high, and INT goes low to signal the end of the conversion.  
The result can now be read by taking CS and RD low to  
enable the DB0DB12 output buffers.  
AZ (6)  
The Auto-Zero control input. With the AZ pin  
held low during a conversion, the ADC1241  
goes into an auto-zero cycle before the actu-  
al A/D conversion is started. This Auto-Zero  
cycle corrects for the comparator offset volt-  
age. The total conversion time (t ) is in-  
C
creased by 26 clock periods when Auto-Zero  
is used.  
EOC (12)  
INT (13)  
The End-of-Conversion control output. This  
output is low during a conversion or a calibra-  
tion cycle.  
The Interrupt control output. This output goes  
low when a conversion has been completed  
and indicates that the conversion result is  
available in the output latches. Reading the  
result or starting a conversion or calibration  
cycle will reset this output high.

Test Mode (DB2, DB3, DB5 and DB6 become active)  
FIGURE 1. Function of the A/D Control Inputs  
The table in Figure 1 summarizes the effect of the digital  
control inputs on the function of the ADC1241. The Test  
Mode, where RD is high and CS and CAL are low, is used by  
the factory to thoroughly check out the operation of the  
ADC1241. Care should be taken not to inadvertently be in  
this mode, since DB2, DB3, DB5, and DB6 become active  
outputs, which may cause data bus contention.  
3.0 Analog Considerations  
3.1 REFERENCE VOLTAGE  
The voltage applied to the reference input of the converter  
defines the voltage span of the analog input (the difference  
between V and AGND), over which 4095 positive output  
IN  
codes and 4096 negative output codes exist. The A-to-D  
can be used in either ratiometric or absolute reference ap-

must have a  
REF  
All internal logic can be reset, which will abort any conver-  
sion in process. The A/D is reset whenever a new conver-  
sion is started by taking CS and WR low. If this is done when  
the analog input is being sampled or when EOC is low, the  
Auto-Cal correction factors may be corrupted, therefore  
making it necessary to do an Auto-Cal cycle before the next  
conversion. This is true with or without Auto-Zero. The Cali-  
bration Cycle cannot be reset once started. On power-up  
the ADC1241 automatically goes through a Calibration Cy-  
cle that takes typically 1396 clock cycles.  
very low output impedance and very low noise. The circuit in  
Figure 2 is an example of a very stable reference that is  
appropriate for use with the ADC1241.  
In a ratiometric system, the analog input voltage is propor-  
tional to the voltage used for the A/D reference. When this  
voltage is the system power supply, the V  
REF  
pin can be  
tied to V . This technique relaxes the stability requirement  
CC  
of the system reference as the analog input and A/D refer-  
ence move together maintaining the same output code for  
given input condition.

For absolute accuracy, where the analog input varies be-  
tween very specific voltage limits, the reference pin can be  
biased with a time and temperature stable voltage source.  
In general, the magnitude of the reference voltage will re-  
quire an initial adjustment to null out full-scale errors.

start of the analog input sampling period (t ). The peak val-

3.7 THE CALIBRATION CYCLE  
ue of this current will depend on the actual input voltage  
applied.  
On power up the ADC1241 goes through an Auto-Cal cycle  
which cannot be interrupted. Since the power supply, refer-  
ence, and clock will not be stable at power up, this first  
calibration cycle will not result in an accurate calibration of  
the A/D. A new calibration cycle needs to be started after  
the power supplies, reference, and clock have been given  
enough time to stabilize. During the calibration cycle, cor-  
rection values are determined for the offset voltage of the  
sampled data comparator and any linearity and gain errors.  
These values are stored in internal RAM and used during an  
analog-to-digital conversion to bring the overall gain, offset,  
and linearity errors down to the specified limits. It should be  
necessary to go through the calibration cycle only once af-  
ter power up.  
3.3 INPUT BYPASS CAPACITORS  
An external capacitor can be used to filter out any noise due  
to inductive pickup by a long input lead and will not degrade  
the accuracy of the conversion result.

3.8 THE AUTO-ZERO CYCLE  
3.5 NOISE  
To correct for any change in the zero (offset) error of the  
A/D, the auto-zero cycle can be used. It may be necessary  
to do an auto-zero cycle whenever the ambient temperature  
changes significantly. (See the curved titled ‘‘Zero Error  
Change vs Ambient Temperature’’ in the Typical Perform-  
ance Characteristics.) A change in the ambient temperature  
The leads to the analog input pin should be kept as short as  
possible to minimize input noise coupling. Both noise and  
undesired digital clock coupling to this input can cause er-  
rors. Input filtering can be used to reduce the effects of  
these noise sources.

4.0 Dynamic Performance  
Power Supply Bypassing  
Many applications require the A/D converter to digitize ac  
signals, but the standard dc integral and differential nonlin-  
earity specifications will not accurately predict the A/D con-  
verter’s performance with ac input signals. The important  
specifications for ac applications reflect the converter’s abil-  
ity to digitize ac signals without significant spectral errors  
and without adding noise to the digitized signal. Dynamic  
a
characteristics such as signal-to-noise distortion ratio  
(S/(N D)), effective bits, full power bandwidth, aperture  
a
time and aperture jitter are quantitative measures of the  
A/D converter’s capability.  
An A/D converter’s ac performance can be measured using  
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) methods. A sinusoidal wave-  
form is applied to the A/D converter’s input, and the trans-  
a
form is then performed on the digitized waveform. S/(N D)  
is calculated from the resulting FFT data, and a spectral plot  
TL/H/1055419

a
may also be obtained. Typical values for S/(N D) are  
shown in the table of Electrical Characteristics, and spectral  
plots are included in the typical performance curves.  
Protecting the Analog Inputs  
The A/D converter’s noise and distortion levels will change  
with the frequency of the input signal, with more distortion  
and noise occurring at higher signal frequencies. This can  
a
be seen in the S/(N D) versus frequency curves. These  
curves will also give an indication of the full power band-  
a
width (the frequency at which the S/(N D) drops 3 dB).  
Two sample/hold specifications, aperture time and aperture  
jitter, are included in the Dynamic Characteristics table  
since the ADC1241 has the ability to track and hold the  
analog input voltage. Aperture time is the delay for the A/D  
to respond to the hold command. In the case of the  
ADC1241, the hold command is internally generated. When  
the Auto-Zero function is not being used, the hold command  
occurs at the end of the acquisition window, or seven clock  
periods after the rising edge of the WR. The delay between  
the internally generated hold command and the time that  
the ADC1241 actually holds the input signal is the aperture  
time. For the ADC1241, this time is typically 100 ns. Aper-  
ture jitter is the change in the aperture time from sample to  
sample. Aperture jitter is useful in determining the maximum  
slew rate of the input signal for a given accuracy. For exam-  
ple, an ADC1241 with 100 ps of aperture jitter operating with  
a 5V reference can have an effective gain variation of about  
1 LSB with an input signal whose slew rate is 12 V/ms.
