GENERAL D ESCRIP TIO N  
T he AD7721 is a complete low power, 12-/16-bit, sigma-delta  
ADC. T he part operates from a +5 V supply and accepts a  
differential input of 0 V to 2.5 V or ±1.25 V. T he analog input  
is continuously sampled by an analog modulator at twice the  
clock frequency eliminating the need for external sample-and-  
hold circuitry. T he modulator output is processed by two finite  
impulse response (FIR) digital filters in series. T he on-chip  
filtering reduces the external antialias requirements to first order  
in most cases. Settling time for a step input is 97.07 µs while  
the group delay for the filter is 48.53 µs when the master clock  
equals 15 MHz.

Use of a single bit DAC in the modulator guarantees excellent  
linearity and dc accuracy. Endpoint accuracy is ensured by on-  
chip calibration of offset and gain. T his calibration procedure  
minimizes the part’s zero-scale and full-scale errors.  
T he output data is accessed from the output register through a  
serial or parallel port. T his offers easy, high speed interfacing to  
modern microcontrollers and digital signal processors. T he  
serial interface operates in internal clocking (master) mode, the  
AD7721 providing the serial clock.  
T he AD7721 can be operated with input bandwidths up to  
229.2 kHz. The corresponding output word rate is 468.75 kHz.  
T he part can be operated with lower clock frequencies also.  
T he sample rate, filter corner frequency and output word rate  
will be reduced also, as these are proportional to the external  
clock frequency. T he maximum clock frequencies in parallel  
mode and serial mode are 10 MHz and 15 MHz respectively.  
CMOS construction ensures low power dissipation while a  
power-down mode reduces the power consumption to only  
100 µW.

T he timing is measured with a load of 50 pF on SCLK and DRDY. SCLK can be operated with a load capacitance of 50 pF maximum.  
1Sample tested at +25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of 5 V) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.  
2All digital outputs are timed with the load circuit below and, except for t 2, are defined as the time required for an output to cross 0.8 V or 2 V, whichever occurs last.  
3T he AD7721 is production tested with fCLK at 10 MHz for parallel mode operation and at 15 MHz for serial mode operation. However, it is guaranteed by character-  
ization to operate with CLK frequencies down to 100 kHz.  
4t2 is the time from RFS crossing 1.6 V to SCLK crossing 0.8 V.  
5t8 and t15 are derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit shown below. T he measured number is then  
extrapolated back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. T his means that the time quoted in the T iming Characteristics is the true bus  
relinquish time of the part and, as such, is independent of external bus loading capacitance.

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 device features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may  
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. T herefore, proper ESD  
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

AGND  
DVDD  
Ground reference point for analog circuitry.  
Digital Supply Voltage, +5 V ± 5%.  
DGND  
DSUBST  
Ground reference point for digital circuitry. DGND must be connected via its own short path to AGND (Pin 24).  
T his is the substrate connection for digital circuits. It must be connected via its own short path to AGND  
(Pin 24).  
VIN1  
VIN2  
Analog Input. In unipolar operation, the analog input range on VIN1 is VIN2 to (VIN2 + VREFIN); for bipolar  
operation, the analog input range on VIN1 is (VIN2 ± VREFIN/2). T he absolute analog input range must lie  
between 0 and AVDD. T he analog input is continuously sampled and processed by the analog modulator.  
Reference Input. T he AD7721 operates with an external reference, of value 2.5 V nominal. A suitable refer-  
ence for operation with the AD7721 is the AD780. A 100 nF decoupling capacitor is required between  
REFIN and AGND.  
REFIN  
CLK  
CMOS Logic Clock Input. T he AD7721 operates with an external clock which is connected to the CLK pin.  
T he modulator samples the analog input on both phases of the clock, increasing the sampling rate to 20 MHz  
(CLK = 10 MHz) or 30 MHz (CLK = 15 MHz).  
Serial Mode O nly  
CS, RD, WR  
T o select the serial interface mode of operation, the AD7721 must be powered up with CS, RD and WR all  
tied to DGND. After two clock cycles, the AD7721 switches into serial mode. T hese pins must remain low  
during serial operation.  
DRDY  
In the serial interface mode, a rising edge on DRDY indicates that new data is available to be read from the  
interface. During a synchronization or calibration cycle, DRDY remains low until valid data is available.  
SDAT A/DB11  
Serial Data Output. Output serial data becomes active after RFS goes low. Sixteen bits of data are clocked  
out starting with the MSB. Serial data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK and is valid on the subse-  
quent falling edge of SCLK.  
RFS/DB10  
Receive Frame Synchronization. Active low logic input. T his is a logic input with RFS provided by connect-  
ing this input to DRDY. When RFS is high, SDAT A is high impedance.  
DB9  
T his is a test mode pin. T his pin must be tied to DGND.  
DB8  
T his is a test mode pin. T his pin must be tied to DGND.

T he function of this pin is determined by the state of bit DB3 in the control register. Writing a logic zero to

be a SYNC input pin.  
A rising edge on SYNC starts the synchronization cycle. SYNC must be pulsed low for at least one clock

When switching this pin from SYNC mode to DVAL mode, it is important that there are no rising edges on  
the pin which could cause resynchronization. For this purpose, an internal pull-up resistor has been included  
on this pin. T hus, when the external driver driving this pin in SYNC mode is switched off, the DVAL/SYNC

This is the maximum deviation of any code from a straight line

midway between successive integer LSB values. T he output  
code is 2s complement binary with 1 LSB = 0.61 mV in paral-

This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
In the unipolar mode, the analog input range is 0 V to 2.5 V.  
Again, the designed code transitions occur midway between suc-  
cessive integer LSB values. The output code is straight binary with  
1 LSB = 0.61 mV in parallel mode and 38 µV in serial mode. The  
ideal input/output transfer function is shown in Figure 3.

T he ability of a device to reject the effect of a voltage applied to

Signal to (Noise + D istor tion)  
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is measured signal to noise at the  
output of the ADC. The signal is the rms magnitude of the funda-  
mental. Noise is the rms sum of all the nonfundamental signals up  
to half the sampling frequency (fCLK/2) but excluding the dc com-  
ponent. Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is dependent on the num-  
ber of quantization levels used in the digitization process; the more  
levels, the smaller the quantization noise. The theoretical Signal to  
(Noise + Distortion) ratio for a sine wave input is given by

Input Cir cuits  
T he choice of the filter corner frequency will depend on the  
amount of rolloff which is acceptable in-band and the attenua-  
tion which is required at the first image frequency. For example,  
when fCLK = 15 MHz, REXT = 50 , CEXT = 7.84 nF, the in-  
band rolloff is 1 dB and the attenuation at the first image fre-  
quency is 31.1 dB. Increasing the size of the external resistor  
above 50 can cause increased distortion due to nonlinear  
charging currents.  
T he purpose of antialiasing filters is to attenuate out of band  
signals that would otherwise be mixed down into the signal  
band. With traditional ADCs, high order filters using expensive  
high tolerance passive components are often required to per-  
form this function. Using oversampling, as employed on the  
AD7721, this problem is considerably alleviated. Figure 4a  
shows the digital filter frequency response. Due to the sampling  
nature of the digital filter, the passband is repeated about the  
operating clock frequency and at multiples of the clock fre-  
quency. Out of band signals coincident with any of the filter  
images are mixed down into the passband. Figure 4b shows the  
frequency response of the antialias filter required to provide a  
particular level of attenuation at the first image frequency. Fig-  
ure 4c shows the frequency response of the antialias filter re-  
quired to achieve the same level of attenuation with a traditional  
ADC. T he much smaller transition band can only be achieved  
with a very high order filter.

of the modulator. By placing the RC filter directly before the  
AD7721, rather than before the operational amplifier, these  
glitches are prevented from being fed back into the operational  
amplifier and creating distortion. T he resistor in this diagram,  
as well as creating a pole for the antialias filter, also isolates the  
storage capacitor from the operational amplifier which may  
otherwise be unstable.

For both filters, the capacitor CEXT should have a low tempera-

Polypropylene or polystyrene capacitors are suitable.  
Figure 5 shows a simple antialiasing filter which can be used

antialias filter is given by Equation 1, and the attenuation of the  
filter is given by Equation 2. Attenuation at the first image  
frequency is given by Equation 3.  
O ffset and Gain Calibr ation  
A calibration of offset and gain errors can be performed in both  
serial and parallel modes by initiating a calibration cycle. During  
this cycle, offset and gain registers in the filter are loaded with  
values representing the dc offset of the analog modulator and a  
modulator gain correction factor. In normal operation, the offset  
register is subtracted from the digital filter output and this result  
is then multiplied by the gain correction factor to obtain an  
offset and gain corrected final result.

During the calibration cycle, in which the offset of the analog  
modulator is evaluated, the inputs to the modulator are shorted  
together internally. When the modulator and digital filter settle,  
the average of 8 output results is calculated and stored in the  
offset register. T he gain of the modulator is determined by

switching the positive input of the modulator to the reference  
voltage and the negative input to AGND. Again, when the  
modulator and digital filter settle, a gain correction factor is  
calculated from the average of 8 output results and stored in the  
gain register. After the calibration registers have been loaded  
with new values, the inputs of the modulator are switched back  
to the input pins. However, correct data is available at the inter-  
face only after the modulator and filter have settled to the new  
input values.  
Standby  
T he part can be put into a low power standby mode by writing  
to the configuration register in parallel mode or by taking the  
ST BY pin high in serial mode. During Standby, the clock to  
both the modulator and the digital filter is turned off and bias is  
removed from all analog circuits. On coming out of standby  
mode, the DRDY pin remains high in parallel mode and low in  
serial mode for 2080 clock cycles. When DRDY changes state,  
valid data is available at the interface. As soon as the part is  
taken out of standby mode, a synchronization or calibration  
cycle can be initiated.  
The whole calibration cycle is controlled by internal logic, and the  
controller need only initiate the cycle. The calibration values  
loaded into the registers only apply for the particular analog input  
mode (bipolar/unipolar) selected when initiating the calibration  
cycle. On changing to a different analog input mode, a new calibra-  
tion must be performed. The duration of the calibration cycle is up  
to 6720 clock cycles for the unipolar mode and up to 9024 clock  
cycles for the bipolar mode. Until valid data is available at the  
interface, the DRDY pin remains high in parallel mode and low in  
serial mode. Should the part see a rising edge on the SYNC pin in  
serial mode or on the DVAL/SYNC pin (if programmed as a  
SYNC pin), then the calibration cycle is discontinued and a syn-  
chronization operation will be performed. Similarly, putting the  
part into standby mode during the cycle will discontinue the cali-  
bration cycle.  
D VAL  
T he DVAL pin or the DVAL/SYNC pin, when programmed as  
a DVAL pin, is used to indicate that an overrange input signal  
has resulted in invalid data at the ADC output. Small overloads  
will result in DVAL going low and the output being clipped to  
positive or negative full scale, depending on the sign of the  
overload. As with all single bit DAC high order sigma-delta  
modulators, large overloads on the inputs can cause the modula-  
tor to go unstable. T he modulator is designed to be stable with  
signals within the input bandwidth that exceed full scale by  
20%. When instability is detected by internal circuits, the  
modulator is reset to a stable state and DVAL is held low for  
2080 clock cycles. During this period, the output registers are  
set to negative full scale. Whenever DVAL goes low, DRDY will  
continue to indicate that there is data to be read.  
T he calibration registers are static and retain their contents even  
during standby. T hey need to be updated only if unacceptable  
drifts in analog offsets or gain are expected. On power-up in  
parallel mode, the offset and gain errors may contain incorrect  
values and therefore a calibration must be performed at least  
once after power-up. In serial mode, a calibration on power-up  
is not mandatory if the CAL pin is grounded prior to power-up  
as the calibration register will be reset to zero. Before initiating a  
calibration routine, ensure that the supplies have settled and that  
the voltage on the analog input pins is between the supply voltages.  
Calibration does not affect the synchronization of the part.  
Var ying the Master Clock Fr equency  
T he AD7721 can be operated with clock frequencies less than  
10 MHz. T he sample rate, output word rate and cutoff fre-  
quency of the FIR filters are directly proportional to the master  
clock frequency. T he analog input is sampled at a frequency of  
2 fCLK while the output word rate equals fCLK/32. For example,  
reducing the clock frequency to 5 MHz leads to a sample fre-  
quency of 10 MHz, an output word rate of 156.25 kHz and a  
corner frequency of 76.4 kHz. T he AD7721 can be operated  
with clock frequencies down to 100 kHz.  
Synchr onization  
Data is presented at the interface at 1/32 the CLK frequency. In  
order that this data is presented to the interface at a known  
point in time or to ensure that the data from more than one  
device is a filtered and decimated result derived from the same  
input samples, a synchronizing function has been provided. In  
parallel mode, the DVAL/SYNC pin must first be configured as  
a SYNC pin by writing to the control register. In serial mode,  
there is a dedicated SYNC pin. On the rising edge of the SYNC  
pulse or the DVAL/SYNC pulse, the digital filter is reset to a  
known state. For 2080 clock cycles, DRDY remains high in  
parallel mode and low in serial mode. When DRDY changes  
state at the end of this period, valid data is available at the inter-  
face. Synchronizing the part has no affect on the values in the  
calibration register.  
P ower Supply Sequencing  
If separate analog and digital supplies are used, care must be  
taken to ensure that both supplies remain within ±0.3 V of each  
other both during normal operation and during power-up and  
power-down to completely eliminate the possibility of latch-up.  
If this cannot be assured, then the protection circuit shown in  
Figure 7 is recommended. The 10 resistors may be required to  
limit the current through the diodes if particularly fast edges are  
expected on the supplies during power-up and power-down.  
If only one supply is available, then DVDD must be connected to  
the analog supply. Supply decoupling capacitors are still re-  
quired as close as possible to both supply pins.  
IN4148  
SYNC is latched internally on the rising edge of DCLK which is  
a delayed version of the clock on the CLK pin. Should SYNC  
go high coincidentally with DCLK, there is a potential uncer-  
tainty of one clock cycle in the start of the synchronization cycle.  
T o avoid this, SYNC should be taken high after the falling edge  
of the clock on the CLK pin and before the rising edge of this  
clock.

CIRCUIT D ESCRIP TIO N  
Sigm a-D elta AD C  
T he AD7721 ADC employs a sigma-delta conversion technique  
that converts the analog input into a digital pulse train.  
Analog filters, however, can remove noise superimposed on the  
signal before it reaches the ADC. Digital filtering cannot do this  
and noise peaks riding on signals, near full-scale, have the po-  
tential to overload the analog modulator even though the aver-  
age value of the signal is within limits.  
Due to the high oversampling rate, which spreads the quantiza-  
tion noise from 0 to fCLK/2, the noise energy which is contained  
in the band of interest is reduced (Figure 8a). T o reduce the  
quantization noise further, a high order modulator is employed  
to shape the noise spectrum, so that most of the noise energy is  
shifted out of the band of interest (Figure 8b).

D igital Filter  
T he AD7721s serial communication port allows easy inter-  
facing to industry-standard microprocessors, microcontrollers  
and digital signal processors. T he AD7721 is operated in self-  
clocking mode, the AD7721 providing the serial clock. T he  
RFS signal is also provided by the AD7721 by tying RFS to  
DRDY.  
T he digital filter that follows the modulator removes the large  
out of band quantization noise, while converting the one bit  
digital pulse train into 12-bit or 16-bit wide binary data. T he  
digital filter also reduces the data rate from fCLK at the input of  
the filter to fCLK/32 at the output of the filter. T he output data  
rate is a little over twice the signal bandwidth which guarantees  
that there is no loss of data in the signal band.  
Figure 10 shows the timing diagram for reading from the  
AD7721. DRDY goes high to indicate that a conversion has  
been completed. DRDY remains high for one internal clock  
(15 MHz) cycle and then goes low for the next 31 clock cycles.  
New data is loaded into the output shift register on the rising  
edge of DRDY. When DRDY goes low, the data is accessed  
from the AD7721. Although the AD7721 has a 12-bit digital  
output in the parallel mode, sixteen bits of data are available for  
transmission in the serial mode, starting with the MSB. Serial  
data is clocked out of the device on the rising edge of SCLK  
and is valid on the falling edge of SCLK.  
T he AD7721 employs 2 FIR filters in series. T he first filter is a  
128 tap filter that samples the output of the modulator at fCLK  
T he second filter is an 83 tap half-band filter that samples the  
output of the first filter at fCLK/16 and decimates by 2. T he  
frequency response of the 2 filters is shown in Figure 9.  
.
Digital filtering has certain advantages over analog filtering.  
First, since digital filtering occurs after the A/D conversion, it  
can remove noise injected during the conversion process. Ana-  
log filtering cannot do this. Second, the digital filter combines  
low passband ripple with a steep roll off, while also maintaining

T he write operation is used to write data into the control regis-

range, allow the part to be put into power-down (standby)  
mode, define the function of the DVAL/SYNC pin, and initiate  
the calibration routine. After power-up and after at least 16  
clock cycles, the control register must be written to. A cali-  
bration must also be performed at least once after power-up to  
set the calibration registers. T he function of each bit in the  
control register is shown in T able I. When writing to the con-  
trol register, the RD pin must be taken high so that the pins D0

T he device defaults to parallel mode if CS, RD and WR are not  
tied to DGND together. Figure 11 shows a timing diagram for

the device in parallel mode, CS and RD should be tied to  
DGND permanently except when control information is being

MICRO CO MP UTER/MICRO P RO CESSO R INTERFACING  
T he AD7721 has a variety of interfacing options. It offers two  
operating modes—serial and parallel.  
Ser ial Inter facing  
In serial mode, the AD7721 can be directly interfaced to several  
DSPs. In all cases, the AD7721 operates as the master with the  
DSP acting as the slave. T he AD7721 provides its own serial  
clock to clock the digital word from the AD7721 to the DSP.  
T he serial clock is a buffered version of the master clock CLK.  
T he frame synchronization signal to the AD7721 and the DSP  
is provided by the DRDY signal.  
AD 7721 to D SP 56002 Inter face  
Figure 14 shows the AD7721 to DSP56002 interface. If the  
AD7721 is being used at a lower clock frequency (5.128 MHz),  
the DSP56000 or DSP56001 can be used. T he interface will be  
similar for all three DSPs. T o interface the DSP56002 to the  
AD7721, the DSP56002 is configured as follows: SYN = 1  
(synchronous mode), SCD1 = 0 (RFS will be an input),  
GCK = 0 (a continuous clock will be used), SCKD = 0 (the  
serial clock will be external), WL1 = 1, WL0 = 0 (transfers will  
be 16 bits wide), FSL1 = 0, FSL0 = 1 (the frame sync will be  
active at the beginning of each transfer).  
Because the serial clock from the AD7721 has the same frequency  
as the master clock, DSPs that can accept high serial clock fre-  
quencies are required. When the AD7721 is being operated  
with a 15 MHz clock, Analog Devices’ ADSP-2106x SHARC®  
DSP is suitable as this DSP can accept very high serial clocks.  
T he 40 MHz version of this DSP can accept a serial clock of  
40 MHz maximum. T o interface the AD7721 to other DSPs,  
the master clock frequency of the AD7721 can be reduced so  
that it equals the maximum allowable frequency of the serial  
clock for the DSP. T his will cause the sampling rate, the output  
word rate and the bandwidth of the AD7721 to be reduced by a  
proportional amount. T he ADSP-21xx family can operate with  
a maximum serial clock of 13.824 MHz, the DSP56002 uses a  
maximum serial clock of 13.3 MHz while the T MS320C5x-57  
accepts a maximum serial clock of 10.989 MHz.

When the AD7721 is being operated with a low master clock  
frequency (< 8 MHz), DSPs such as the T MS320C20/C25 and  
DSP56000/1 can be used. Figures 13 to 15 show the interfaces  
between the AD7721 and several DSPs. In all cases, CS, RD  
and WR are permanently hardwired to DGND.  
Figure 14. AD7721 to DSP56002 Interface  
Alternatively, the DSP56002 can be operated in asynchronous  
mode (SYN = 0). In this mode, the serial clock for the Receive  
section in inputted to the SC0 pin. T his is accomplished by  
setting bit SCD0 to 0 (external Rx clock).  
AD 7721 to AD SP -21xx Inter face  
Several of the ADSP-21xx family can interface directly to the  
AD7721. DRDY is used as the frame sync signal for both the  
ADSP-21xx and the AD7721. DRDY, which goes high for two  
clock cycles when a conversion is complete, can also be used as  
an interrupt signal if required. Figure 13 shows the AD7721  
interface to the ADSP-21xx. For the ADSP-21xx, the bits in  
the serial port control register should be set up as RFSR = 1  
(a frame sync is needed for each transfer), SLEN = 15 (16 bit  
word lengths), RFSW = 0 (normal framing mode for receive  
operations), INVRFS = 0 (active high RFS), IRFS = 0 (external  
RFS), and ISCLK = 0 (external serial clock).  
AD 7721 to TMS320C20/C25/C5x Inter face  
Figure 15 shows the AD7721 to T MS320C20/C25/C5x inter-  
face. For the T MS320C5x, FSR and CLKR are automatically  
configured as inputs. T he serial port is configured as follows:  
FO = 0 (16-bit word transfers), FSM = 1 (a frame sync occurs  
for each transfer). Figure 15 shows the interface diagram when  
the AD7721 is being interfaced to the T MS320C20 and the  
T MS320C25 also but, these DSPs can be used only when the  
AD7721 is being used at a lower frequency such as 5 MHz  
(C25) or 2.56 MHz (C20).

In parallel mode, the DRDY signal is still available. T his signal  
can be used to generate an interrupt in the DSP as DRDY goes  
high for two clock cycles when a conversion is complete. Data  
is available from the AD7721 every 32 CLK cycles. T he ADC  
outputs the 12-bit digital word automatically. Hence, latches are  
needed into which the 12-bit parallel word can be transferred.  
Because RD and CS are permanently tied to DGND when the  
ADC is performing A-to-D conversions, some further glue logic  
is needed to interface the AD7721 to a DSP in parallel mode.  
When a digital word is available from the AD7721, it will be  
automatically transferred to the latches. T he DRDY signal  
informs the DSP that a new word is available to be read. T he  
DSP then reads the word from the latches. By using the  
latches, the microprocessor is free to perform other tasks be-  
tween reads from the AD7721.

When using the parallel mode, CS and RD should be permanently  
tied to DGND, RD being taken high only when a control word  
is being written to the AD7721. CS and RD should not be  
pulsed, as is the procedure with other ADCs, as the specifications  
for the device will degrade and the part may become unstable.

AD 7721 to AD SP -21xx Inter face  
Figure 17 shows the AD7721 to ADSP-21xx interface.  DRDY  
is used to interrupt the DSP when a conversion is complete and  
the HC244 latches contain a new word. T he WR signal from  
the DSP is used to drive both the RD and WR inputs of the  
AD7721 since RD will be tied low at all times except when the  
control register of the device is being written to. T he RD signal  
of the DSP is used to enable the outputs of the latches so that  
the 12 bit word can be read into the DSP. T wo 8-bit latches  
are used. T welve of the latches are used to hold the 12-bit  
conversion from the AD7721. T he remaining four latches are  
used to hold the control information being transferred from the  
DSP to the AD7721. When a control word is being written to  
the AD7721, Bits 4 to 6 and Bits 9 to 10, which are test bits,  
need to be loaded with zeros. T herefore, pull-down resistors  
are used so that Pins 4 to 6 and 9 to 10 are tied to ground when  
the control register is being loaded.

Figure 19 shows the AD7721 to T MS320C20/C25 interface  
while Figure 20 shows the AD7721 to T MS320C5x interface.  
Again, the interface is similar to that of the ADSP-21xx. However,  
the T MS320C20/C25 has a common RD/W pin. T his output  
is decoded using the STRB pin. T he T MS320C5x has a RD/W  
pin also so external glue logic can be used to decode the RD/W  
pin as done for the C20 and C25. An alternative is to use the  
RD and WE pins of the C5x. Using these outputs, WE oper-  
ates as the WR signal while RD functions as the RD signal.  
Also, additional glue logic is not required.

power supplies, except at integer multiples of the modulator  
sampling frequency. T he digital filter also removes noise from  
the analog inputs provided the noise source does not saturate  
the analog modulator. As a result, the AD7721 is more immune  
to noise interference than a conventional high resolution con-  
verter. However, because the resolution of the AD7721 is high  
and the noise levels from the AD7721 so low, care must be  
taken with regard to grounding and layout.

T he printed circuit board that houses the AD7721 should be  
designed such that the analog and digital sections are separated  
and confined to certain areas of the board. T his 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 shielding. Digital and analog ground planes should only be  
joined in one place. If the AD7721 is the only device requiring  
an AGND to DGND connection, the ground planes should be  
connected at the AGND and DGND pins of the AD7721.  
DSUBST , which is the substrate connection for the digital  
circuitry of the AD7721, should be connected directly to  
AGND. If the AD7721 is in a system where multiple devices  
require AGND to DGND connections, the connection should  
still be made at one point only, a star ground point that should  
be established as close as possible to the AD7721.

Avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple  
noise onto the die. T he analog ground plane should be allowed  
to run under the AD7721 to avoid noise coupling. T he power  
supply lines to the AD7721 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. T races on opposite sides of the board  
should run at right angles to each other. T his will reduce the  
effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip tech-  
nique 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  
other side.

Good decoupling is important when using high resolution  
ADCs. All analog and digital supplies should be decoupled to  
AGND and DGND respectively with 10 nF ceramic capacitors  
in parallel with 1 µF tantalum capacitors. T o achieve the best  
from these decoupling capacitors, they should be placed as close  
as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. In  
systems where a common supply voltage is used to drive both  
the AVDD and DVDD of the AD7721, it is recommended that  
the system’s AVDD supply is used. T his supply should have the  
recommended analog supply decoupling between the AVDD pin  
of the AD7721 and AGND and the recommended digital supply  
decoupling capacitor between the DVDD pins and DGND.

Gr ounding and Layout  
Since the analog inputs are differential, most of the voltages in  
the analog modulator are common-mode voltages. The excellent  
common-mode rejection of the part will remove common-mode  
noise on these inputs. T he analog and digital supplies to the  
AD7721 are independent and separately pinned out to minimize  
coupling between analog and digital sections of the device. T he  
digital filter will provide rejection of broadband noise on the
