Typical Performance Characteristics
Performance graphs illustrate characteristics such as integral and differential nonlinearity, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), total harmonic distortion (THD), and spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) under various conditions. These graphs help in understanding the ADC's performance across different reference voltages and temperatures.
Terminology
Key terms related to ADC performance are defined, including integral nonlinearity error (INL), differential nonlinearity error (DNL), zero error, gain error, spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR), effective number of bits (ENOB), and signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SINAD). These definitions provide clarity on the ADC's specifications.
Theory of Operation
The AD7902 is a dual 16-bit ADC using a successive approximation architecture. It features a fast conversion rate of 1 MSPS and low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. The ADC includes an on-chip track-and-hold and is compatible with various digital logic families.
Converter Operation
The document explains the ADC's operation, including the acquisition and conversion phases. It describes the use of capacitive DACs and the role of control logic in achieving accurate conversions. The ADC's transfer function is also detailed, providing insight into its ideal performance characteristics.
Analog Inputs
The AD7902 features ESD protection diodes for its analog inputs, which should not exceed the reference voltage by more than 0.3 V. The input structure allows differential signal sampling, rejecting common-mode signals within the allowable range. The input impedance is modeled as a combination of resistors and capacitors, forming a low-pass filter to reduce noise and aliasing effects.
Driver Amplifier Choice
The driver amplifier must minimize noise to preserve the ADC's signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The document provides a formula for SNR degradation and lists recommended amplifiers based on noise and frequency characteristics.
Voltage Reference Input
The REF input requires a low impedance source with efficient decoupling. Recommendations for decoupling capacitors vary based on the reference source, with specific values suggested for buffered and unbuffered references.
Power Supply
The AD7902 uses separate core and digital interface supplies, allowing flexibility in logic interfacing. It is insensitive to power supply variations and automatically powers down after each conversion, making it suitable for low-power applications.
Digital Interface
The AD7902 supports flexible serial interface modes, including SPI compatibility. It offers both 3-wire and 4-wire interface options, with or without a busy indicator. The document details the operation of these modes, including timing diagrams and connection setups.
Conclusion
The AD7902 is a versatile ADC suitable for various applications, offering robust input protection, flexible interfacing, and efficient power management. Proper selection of driver amplifiers and voltage references is crucial for optimal performance.
CS Mode
In Chip Select (CS) mode, the AD7902 operates with a 4-wire interface and a busy indicator. A rising edge on CNVx initiates conversion, and SDOx transitions to high impedance. The data is clocked out MSB first, and the digital host can use the SCKx falling edge for faster reading rates.
Chain Mode
The AD7902 supports chain mode for daisy-chaining ADCs on a 3-wire interface. This mode reduces component count and wiring. It can operate with or without a busy indicator, allowing for flexible integration in systems with limited interfacing capacity.
Simultaneous Sampling
The AD7902 can be configured for simultaneous sampling, providing fast data throughput. This is beneficial in control applications where latency is critical. The device can be set up for simultaneous data read and sampling, requiring additional digital host input pins.
Functional Safety
The AD7902's isolated ADCs make it ideal for redundant measurement applications, contributing to a no single error system. It supports verification/backup measurements by separating the verification ADC from the system under control.
Layout Considerations
The PCB design should separate analog and digital sections, avoid running digital lines under the device, and ensure monotonicity of digital edges. Use ground planes and decouple reference inputs and power supplies with ceramic capacitors placed close to the device.
Evaluation and Ordering
The AD7902 is available in a 20-lead QSOP package. Evaluation boards and user guides are available for performance testing and integration into systems.

It contains two low power, high speed, 16-bit sampling ADCs and a versatile serial port interface (SPI). On the CNVx rising edge, the AD7902 samples an analog input, IN+, in the range of 0 V to VREF with respect to a ground sense, IN−. The externally applied reference voltage of the REFx pins (VREF) can be set independently from the supply voltage pins, VDDx. The power of the device scales linearly with throughput. Using the SDIx inputs, the SPI-compatible serial interface can also daisy-chain multiple ADCs on a single 3-wire bus and provide an optional busy indicator. It is compatible with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, or 5 V logic, using the separate VIOx supplies. The AD7902 is available in a 20-lead QSOP package with operation specified from −40°C to +125°C. Table 1.
