GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD7490 is a 12-bit high speed, low power, 16-channel,  
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 part contains a low noise, wide bandwidth  
track-and-hold amplifier that can handle input frequencies in  
excess of 1 MHz.  
frequency because this is also used as the master clock to  
control the conversion.  
The AD7490 is available in a 32-lead LFCSP and a 28-lead  
TSSOP package.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. The AD7490 offers up to 1 MSPS throughput rates. At  
maximum throughput with 3 V supplies, the AD7490  
dissipates just 5.4 mW of power.  
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled  
CS  
using  
and the serial clock signal, allowing the device to  
easily interface with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal  
2. A sequence of channels can be selected, through which the  
CS  
is sampled on the falling edge of , and conversion is also

initiated at this point. There are no pipeline delays associated  
with the part.  
3. The AD7490 operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply.  
The VDRIVE function allows the serial interface to connect  
directly to either 3 V or 5 V processor systems independent  
The AD7490 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very  
low power dissipation at high throughput rates. For maximum  
throughput rates, the AD7490 consumes just 1.8 mA with 3 V  
supplies, and 2.5 mA with 5 V supplies.  
of VDD  
.
4. The conversion rate is determined by the serial clock,  
allowing the conversion time to be reduced through the  
serial clock speed increase. The part also features various  
shutdown modes to maximize power efficiency at lower  
throughput rates. Power consumption is 0.5 µA, maximum,  
when in full shutdown.  
By setting the relevant bits in the control register, the analog  
input range for the part can be selected to be a 0 V to REFIN  
input or a 0 V to 2 × REFIN input, with either straight binary  
or twos complement output coding. The AD7490 features 16  
single-ended analog inputs with a channel sequencer to allow a  
preprogrammed selection of channels to be converted sequen-  
tially. The conversion time is determined by the SCLK  
5. The part features a standard successive approximation  
CS  
ADC with accurate control of the sampling instant via a  
input and once off conversion control.

1 Guaranteed by characterization. All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 5 ns (10% to 90% of VDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V (see Figure 2). The 3 V  
operating range spans from 2.7 V to 3.6 V. The 5 V operating range spans from 4.75 V to 5.25 V.  
2 The mark/space ratio for the SCLK input is 40/60 to 60/40. The maximum SCLK frequency is 16 MHz with VDD = 3 V to give a throughput of 870 kSPS. Care must be  
taken when interfacing to account for data access time, t4, and the setup time required for the user’s processor. These two times determine the maximum SCLK  
frequency with which the user’s system can operate (see the Serial Interface section).  
3 Measured with the load circuit of Figure 2 and defined as the time required for the output to cross 0.4 V or 0.7 VDRIVE  
.
4 t3b represents a worst-case figure for having ADD3 available on the DOUT line, that is, if the AD7490 goes back into three-state at the end of a conversion and some  
other device takes control of the bus between conversions, the user has to wait a maximum time of t3b before having ADD3 valid on the DOUT line. If the DOUT line is  
CS  
weakly driven to ADD3 between conversions, the user typically has to wait 17 ns at 3 V and 12 ns at 5 V after the falling edge before seeing ADD3 valid on DOUT.  
5 t8 is derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 2. The measured number is then extrapolated  
back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 25 pF capacitor. This means that the time, t8, quoted in the timing characteristics, is the true bus relinquish  
time of the part and is independent of the bus loading.

Here, a 200 mV p-p sine wave is coupled onto the VDD supply. 10 nF decoupling was used on the supply, and a 1 µF decoupling capacitor  
was used on the REFIN pin.

TERMINOLOGY  
Integral Nonlinearity  
Negative Gain Error Match  
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.  
This is the difference in negative gain error between any two  
channels.  
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 400 kHz sine wave signal to all 15 nonselected input  
channels and determining how much that signal is attenuated in  
the selected channel with a 50 kHz signal. This specification is  
the worst case across all 16 channels for the AD7490.  
Differential Nonlinearity  
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Offset Error  
This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 … 000) to  
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)  
(00 … 001) from the ideal, that is, AGND + 1 LSB.  
Variations in power supply affect the full scale transition, but  
not the converter linearity. Power supply rejection is the  
maximum change in the full-scale transition point due to a  
change in power supply voltage from the nominal value. (see  
the Typical Performance Characteristics section).  
Offset Error Match  
This is the difference in offset error between any two channels.  
Gain Error  
This is the deviation of the last code transition (111 … 110) to  
(111 … 111) from the ideal (that is, REFIN − 1 LSB) after the  
offset error has been adjusted out.  
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time  
The track-and-hold amplifier returns into track on the 14th  
SCLK falling edge. Track-and-hold acquisition time is the  
minimum time required for the track-and-hold amplifier to  
remain in track mode for its output to reach and settle to within  
1 LSB of the applied input signal, given a step change to the  
input signal.  
Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in gain error between any two channels.  
Zero Code Error  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 × REFIN input range with −REFIN  
to +REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of the  
midscale transition (all 0s to all 1s) from the ideal VIN voltage,  
that is, REFIN − 1 LSB.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio  
This is the measured ratio of signal to (noise + distortion) at the  
output of the analog-to-digital converter. The signal is the rms  
amplitude of the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfunda-  
mental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding  
dc. The ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels  
in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quan-  
tization noise. The theoretical signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio  
for an ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by  
Zero Code Error Match  
This is the difference in zero code error between any two  
channels.  
Positive Gain Error  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular the 2 × REFIN input range with −REFIN to  
+REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of the  
last code transition (011 … 110) to (011 … 111) from the ideal  
(that is, +REFIN − 1 LSB) after the zero code error has been  
adjusted out.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) (dB) = 6.02N + 1.76  
Thus for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB.  
Total Harmonic Distortion  
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of  
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7490, it is defined as  
Positive Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in positive gain error between any two  
channels.

V1  
Negative Gain Error  
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.  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 × REFIN input range with −REFIN  
to +REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of the  
first code transition (100 … 000) to (100 … 001) from the ideal  
(that is, −REFIN + 1 LSB) after the zero code error has been  
adjusted out.

Data Sheet  
AD7490  
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise  
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).  
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  
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for  
ADCs where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is a  
noise peak.  
The AD7490 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, and 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  
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 decibels.  
Intermodulation Distortion  
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa  
and fb, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion  
products at the sum and difference frequencies of mfa nfb,  
where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion  
terms are those for which neither m nor n are equal to zero.

CONTROL REGISTER  
The control register on the AD7490 is a 12-bit, write-only  
register. Data is loaded from the DIN pin of the AD7490 on the  
falling edge of SCLK. The data is transferred on the DIN line at  
the same time as the conversion result is read from the part.  
The data transferred on the DIN line corresponds to the  
CS  
provided on the first 12 falling clock edges (after the  
falling  
edge) is loaded to the control register. MSB denotes the first bit  
in the data stream. The bit functions are outlined in Table 5.

WRITE  
The value written to this bit of the control register determines whether the following 11 bits are loaded to the  
control register or not. If this bit is a 1, the following 11 bits are written to the control register; if it is a 0, the  
remaining 11 bits are not loaded to the control register, and it remains unchanged.

These four address bits are loaded at the end of the present conversion sequence and select which analog input  
channel is to be converted on in the next serial transfer, or they may select the final channel in a consecutive  
sequence, as described in Table 9. The selected input channel is decoded as shown in Table 7. The next channel to  
be converted on is selected by the mux on the 14th SCLK falling edge. The address bits corresponding to the  
conversion result are also output on DOUT prior to the 12 bits of data (see the Serial Interface section).

Power management bits. These two bits decode the mode of operation of the AD7490, as shown in Table 8.

WEAK/TRI  
RANGE  
This bit selects the state of the DOUT line at the end of the current serial transfer. If it is set to 1, the DOUT line is  
weakly driven to the ADD3 channel address bit of the ensuing conversion. If this bit is set to 0, DOUT returns to  
three-state at the end of the serial transfer. See the Control Register section for more details.  
This bit selects the analog input range to be used on the AD7490. If it is set to 0, the analog input range extends  
from 0 V to 2 × REFIN. If it is set to 1, the analog input range extends from 0 V to REFIN (for the next conversion).  
For 0 V to 2 × REFIN, VDD = 4.75 V to 5.25 V.  
This bit selects the type of output coding used by the AD7490 for the conversion result. If this bit is set to 0, the  
output coding for the part is twos complement. If this bit is set to 1, the output coding from the part is straight  
binary (for the next conversion).

Auto shutdown. In this mode, the AD7490 automatically enters shutdown mode at the end of each conversion when the  
control register is updated. Wake-up time from shutdown is 1 µs, and the user should ensure that 1 µs has elapsed before  
attempting to perform a valid conversion on the part in this mode.  
Auto standby. In this standby mode, portions of the AD7490 are powered down, but the on-chip bias generator remains  
powered up. This mode is similar to auto shutdown and allows the part to power up within one dummy cycle, that is, 1 µs  
with a 20 MHz SCLK.  
Sequencer Operation  
The configuration of the SEQ and SHADOW bits in the control register allows the user to select a particular mode of operation of the  
sequencer function. Table 9 outlines the four modes of operation of the sequencer.  
Table 9. Sequence Selection

This configuration means the sequence function is not used. The analog input channel selected for each individual  
conversion is determined by the contents of the channel address bits ADD0 through ADD3 in each prior write  
operation. This mode of operation reflects the normal operation of a multichannel ADC, without the sequencer  
function being used, where each write to the AD7490 selects the next channel for conversion (see Figure 12).

If the SEQ and SHADOW bits are set in this way, the sequence function is not interrupted upon completion of the write  
operation. This allows other bits in the control register to be altered while in a sequence without terminating the cycle.  
This configuration is used in conjunction with the ADD3 to ADD0 channel address bits to program continuous  
conversions on a consecutive sequence of channels from Channel 0 through to a selected final channel, as determined  
by the channel address bits in the control register (see Figure 14).

AD7490  
Data Sheet  
Figure 13 shows how to program the AD7490 to continuously  
convert on a particular sequence of channels using the Shadow  
register. To exit this mode of operation and revert back to the  
normal mode of operation of a multichannel ADC (as outlined  
in Figure 12), ensure that WRITE = 1 and SEQ = SHADOW = 0  
on the next serial transfer.  
SHADOW REGISTER  
The Shadow register on the AD7490 is a 16-bit, write-only  
register. Data is loaded from the DIN pin of the AD7490 on the  
falling edge of SCLK. The data is transferred on the DIN line at  
the same time that a conversion result is read from the part.  
This requires 16 serial falling edges for the data transfer. The  
information is clocked into the Shadow register, provided the  
SEQ and SHADOW bits are set to 0, 1, respectively, in the  
previous write to the control register. MSB denotes the first bit  
in the data stream. Each bit represents an analog input from  
Channel 0 through Channel 15. A sequence of channels can be  
selected through which the AD7490 cycles with each consecutive

sequence of channels, the associated channel bit must be set for

the selected channels in ascending order, beginning with the

any way except 1, 0 (see Table 9). The bit functions are outlined

The AD7490 is a fast, 16-channel, 12-bit, single-supply, analog-  
to-digital converter. The parts can be operated from a 2.7 V to  
5.25 V supply. When operated from a 5 V supply and provided  
with a 20 MHz clock, the AD7490 is capable of throughput rates  
of up to 1 MSPS.

Analog Input  
The AD7490 provides flexible power management options to  
allow the user to achieve the best power performance for a  
given throughput rate. These options are selected by program-  
ming the power management bits in the control register.  
Figure 17 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input struc-  
ture of the AD7490. The two diodes, D1 and D2, provide ESD  
protection for the analog inputs. Care must be taken to ensure  
that the analog input signal never exceeds the supply rails by  
more than 200 mV. This causes these diodes to become forward  
biased and to start conducting current into the substrate. The  
maximum current these diodes can conduct without causing  
irreversible damage to the part is 10 mA. Capacitor C1 in Figure 17  
is typically about 4 pF and can primarily be attributed to pin  
capacitance. Resistor R1 is a lumped component made up of the  
on resistance of a track-and-hold switch and includes the on  
resistance of the input multiplexer. The total resistance is typically  
about 400 Ω. Capacitor C2 is the ADC sampling capacitor and  
typically has a capacitance of 30 pF.  
CONVERTER OPERATION  
The AD7490 is a 12-bit successive approximation ADC based  
around a capacitive DAC. The AD7490 can convert analog  
input signals in the range 0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 × REFIN.  
Figure 15 and Figure 16 show simplified schematics of the  
ADC. The ADC comprises control logic, SAR, and a capacitive  
DAC, which are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of  
charge from the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator  
back into a balanced condition. Figure 15 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 the selected

When the ADC starts a conversion (see Figure 16), SW2 opens  
and SW1 moves 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 condi-  
tion. When the comparator is rebalanced, the conversion is  
complete. The control logic generates the ADC output code.  
Figure 18 shows the ADC transfer function.

Figure 17. Equivalent Analog Input Circuit  
For ac applications, removing 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 significantly affect the ac performance  
of the ADC. This may necessitate the use of an input buffer  
amplifier. The choice of the op amp is a function of the particular  
application.

Data Sheet  
AD7490  
When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input, the source  
impedance should be limited to low values. The maximum  
source impedance depends on the amount of total harmonic  
distortion (THD) that can be tolerated. The THD increases as  
the source impedance increases, and performance degrades (see  
Figure 9).  
Handling Bipolar Input Signals  
Figure 20 shows how useful the combination of the 2 × REFIN  
input range and the twos complement output coding scheme is  
for handling bipolar input signals. If the bipolar input signal is  
biased about REFIN and twos complement output coding is  
selected, REFIN becomes the zero code point, −REFIN is negative  
full scale, and +REFIN becomes positive full scale, with a  
dynamic range of 2 × REFIN.  
ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION  
The output coding of the AD7490 is either straight binary or  
twos complement depending on the status of the LSB  
(CODING bit) in the control register. The designed code  
transitions occur midway between successive LSB values (that  
is, 1 LSB, 2 LSBs, and so on). The LSB size is equal to

tied low to ensure the control register is not accidentally over-  
written or the sequence operation interrupted. If the control  
register is written to at any time during the sequence, it must be  
ensured that the SEQ and SHADOW bits are set to 1, 0 to avoid  
interrupting the automatic conversion sequence. This pattern  
continues until such time as the AD7490 is written to and the  
SEQ and SHADOW bits are configured with any bit combination  
except 1, 0. On completion of the sequence, the AD7490 sequencer  
returns to the first selected channel in the Shadow register and  
commences the sequence again, if uninterrupted.  
TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM  
Figure 21 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7490.  
In this setup, the AGND pin is connected to the analog ground  
plane of the system. In Figure 21, REFIN is connected to a  
decoupled 2.5 V supply from a reference source, the AD780, to  
provide an analog input range of 0 V to 2.5 V (if the RANGE bit  
is 1) or 0 V to 5 V (if the RANGE bit is 0). Although the AD7490  
is connected to a VDD of 5 V, the serial interface is connected to  
a 3 V microprocessor. The VDRIVE pin of the AD7490 is connected  
to the same 3 V supply of the microprocessor to allow a 3 V  
logic interface (see the Digital Input section). The conversion  
result is output in a 16-bit word. This 16-bit data stream  
consists of four address bits, indicating which channel the  
conversion result corresponds to, followed by the 12 bits of  
conversion data. For applications where power consumption is  
of concern, the power-down modes should be used between  
conversions or bursts of several conversions to improve power  
performance (see the Modes of Operation section).  
Rather than selecting a particular sequence of channels, a number  
of consecutive channels beginning with Channel 0 can also be  
programmed via the control register alone without needing to  
write to the Shadow register. This is possible if the SEQ and  
SHADOW bits are set to 1, 1. The ADD3 through ADD0 channel  
address bits then determine the final channel in the consecutive  
sequence. The next conversion is on Channel 0, then Channel 1,  
and so on until the channel selected via the ADD3 through  
ADD0 address bits is reached. The cycle begins again on the  
next serial transfer, provided the WRITE bit is set to low; or, if  
high, that the SEQ and SHADOW bits are set to 1, 0, then the  
ADC continues its preprogrammed automatic sequence uninter-  
rupted. Regardless of which channel selection method is used,  
the 16-bit word output from the AD7490 during each conversion  
always contains the channel address that the conversion result  
corresponds to, followed by the 12-bit conversion result (see the  
Serial Interface section).

The digital inputs applied to the AD7490 are not limited by the

Analog Input Channels  
VDD + 0.3 V limit as on the analog inputs.  
Any one of 16 analog input channels can be selected for conver-  
sion by programming the multiplexer with the ADD3 to ADD0  
address bits in the control register. The channel configurations  
are shown in Table 7. The AD7490 can also be configured to  
automatically cycle through a number of channels, as selected.  
The sequencer feature is accessed via the SEQ and SHADOW  
bits in the control register (see Table 9). The AD7490 can be  
programmed to continuously convert on a selection of channels  
in ascending order. The sequence of analog input channels to be  
converted on is selected through programming the relevant bits  
in the Shadow register (see Table 10). The next serial transfer  
then acts on the sequence programmed by executing a conver-  
sion on the lowest channel in the selection.  
CS  
Another advantage of SCLK, DIN, and  
not being restricted  
by the VDD + 0.3 V limit is the fact that power supply sequencing  
issues are avoided. If , DIN, or SCLK is applied before VDD  
there is no risk of latch-up as there would be on the analog  
inputs if a signal greater than 0.3 V were applied prior to VDD  
CS  
,
.
VDRIVE  
The AD7490 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 AD7490 is operated with a VDD of 5 V, t h e V DRIVE  
pin can be powered from a 3 V supply. The AD7490 has better  
dynamic performance with a VDD of 5 V, while still being able  
to interface to 3 V processors. Care should be taken to ensure  
that VDRIVE does not exceed VDD by more than 0.3 V (see the  
Absolute Maximum Ratings section).  
The next serial transfer results in a conversion on the next  
highest channel in the sequence, and so on. It is not necessary  
to write to the control register once a sequencer operation has  
been initiated. The WRITE bit must be set to 0 or the DIN line

Interface section. The data presented to the AD7490 on the  
DIN line during the first 12 clock cycles of the data transfer is

An external reference source should be used to supply the 2.5 V  
reference to the AD7490. Errors in the reference source result  
in gain errors in the AD7490 transfer function and add to the  
specified full-scale errors of the part. A capacitor of at least 0.1 μF  
should be placed on the REFIN pin. Suitable reference sources  
for the AD7490 include the AD780, REF192, AD1582, ADR03,

to the control register (provided the WRITE bit is 1). If data is  
to be written to the Shadow register (SEQ = 0, SHADOW = 1  
on previous write), data presented on the DIN line during the  
first 16 SCLK cycles is loaded into the Shadow register. The part  
remains fully powered up in normal mode at the end of the  
conversion as long as PM1 and PM0 are set to 1 in the write  
transfer during that conversion. To ensure continued operation  
in normal mode, PM1 and PM0 are both loaded with 1 on every  
data transfer. Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to complete  
the conversion and access the conversion result. The track-and-  
hold goes back into track on the 14 SCLK falling edge.  
then idle high until the next conversion or may idle low until  
sometime prior to the next conversion, (effectively idling low).  
If 2.5 V is applied to the REFIN pin, the analog input range can  
either be 0 V to 2.5 V or 0 V to 5 V, depending on the RANGE  
bit in the control register.  
MODES OF OPERATION  
The AD7490 has a number of different modes of operation.  
These modes are designed to provide flexible power manage-  
ment options. These options can be chosen to optimize the  
power dissipation/throughput rate ratio for differing application  
requirements. The mode of operation of the AD7490 is controlled  
by the power management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the control  
register, as detailed in Table 7. When power supplies are first  
applied to the AD7490, care should be taken to ensure that the  
part is placed in the required mode of operation (see the  
Powering Up the AD7490 section).

Full Shutdown (PM1 = 1, PM0 = 0)  
Normal Mode (PM1 = PM0 = 1)  
In this mode, all internal circuitry on the AD7490 is powered  
down. The part retains information in the control register  
during full shutdown. The AD7490 remains in full shutdown  
until the power management bits in the control register, PM1  
and PM0, are changed.  
This mode is intended for the fastest throughput rate performance  
because the user does not have to worry about any power-up  
times with the AD7490 remaining fully powered at all times.

AD7490 in this mode.

falling edge, the  
track-and-hold that was on hold while the part was in standby  
returns to track. Wake-up time from standby is 1 μs; the user  
should ensure that 1 μs elapses before attempting a valid conver-  
sion on the part in this mode. When running the AD7490 with  
a 20 MHz clock, one dummy cycle of 16 × SCLK should be  
sufficient to ensure the part is fully powered up. During this  
dummy cycle, the contents of the control register should remain  
unchanged; therefore, the WRITE bit should be set to 0 on the  
DIN line. This dummy cycle effectively halves the throughput  
rate of the part with every other conversion result being valid.  
In this mode, the power consumption of the part is greatly  
reduced with the part entering standby at the end of each con-

Powering Up the AD7490  
Therefore, to ensure the part is placed into the correct operating  
mode when supplies are first applied to the AD7490, the user  
must first issue two serial write operations with the DIN line  
tied high. On the third conversion cycle, the user can then write  
to the control register to place the part into any of the operating  
modes. The user should not write to the Shadow register until  
the fourth conversion cycle after the supplies are applied to  
the ADC to guarantee that the control register contains the  
correct data.  
When supplies are first applied to the AD7490, the ADC may  
power up in any of the operating modes of the part. To ensure  
that the part is placed into the required operating mode, the  
user should perform a dummy cycle operation, as outlined in  
Figure 26.  
The three dummy conversion operations outlined in Figure 26  
must be performed to place the part into either of the auto modes.  
The first two conversions of this dummy cycle operation are  
performed with the DIN line tied high, and for the third conver-  
sion of the dummy cycle operation, the user should write the  
desired control register configuration to the AD7490 to place

or pull-down resistor is sufficient to overdrive the logic level of  
ADD3 between conversions), and all 16 channels may be

Figure 29 shows the power vs. throughput rate when using both  
the auto shutdown mode and auto standby mode with 5 V  
supplies. At the lower throughput rates, power consumption for  
the auto shutdown mode is lower than that for the auto standby  
mode, with the AD7490 dissipating less power when in shut-  
down compared to standby. As the throughput rate is increased,  
however, the part spends less time in power-down states; hence,  
the difference in power dissipated is negligible between modes.  
For 3 V supplies, the power consumption of the AD7490  
decreases. Similar power calculations can be done at 3 V.

This is especially useful if using an automatic sequence mode to  
identify to which channel each result corresponds. If only the  
first eight channels are in use, Address Bit ADD3 does not need  
to be decoded, and whether it is successfully clocked in as a 1  
or 0 does not matter as long as it is still counted by the DSP/  
microcontroller as the MSB of the 16-bit serial transfer.  
POWER vs. THROUGHPUT RATE  
By operating the AD7490 in auto shutdown or auto standby  
mode, the average power consumption of the ADC decreases at  
lower throughput rates. Figure 29 shows that as the throughput  
rate is reduced, the part remains in shutdown state longer and  
the average power consumption drops accordingly over time.

Data Sheet  
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 31. The ADSP-218x  
has the TFS and RFS of the SPORT tied together, with TFS set  
as an output and RFS set as an input. The DSP operates in  
alternate framing mode, and the SPORT control register is set  
up as described. The frame synchronization signal generated on  
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING  
The serial interface on the AD7490 allows the part to be directly  
connected to a range of many different microprocessors. This  
section explains how to interface the AD7490 with some of the  
more common microcontroller and DSP serial interface  
protocols.  
CS  
the TFS is tied to , and, as with all signal processing  
applications, equidistant sampling is necessary. In this example,  
however, the timer interrupt is used to control the sampling rate  
of the ADC, and under certain conditions, equidistant sampling  
may not be achieved.  
AD7490 to TMS320C541  
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 AD7490.  
The timer register, for example, is loaded with a value that  
provides 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, thus, 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 (that is, AX0 = TX0), the state of the SCLK is checked.  
The DSP waits until the SCLK has gone high, low, and high  
before transmission starts. 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.  
CS  
The  
input allows easy interfacing between the TMS320C541  
and the AD7490 without any glue logic required. The serial port  
of the TMS320C541 is set up to operate in burst mode with  
internal CLKX0 (TX serial clock on Serial Port 0) and FSX0  
(TX frame sync from Serial Port 0). The serial port control  
register (SPC) must have the following setup: FO = 0, FSM = 1,  
MCM = 1, and TXM = 1. The connection diagram is shown in  
Figure 30. Note that for signal processing applications, it is  
imperative that the frame synchronization signal from the  
TMS320C541 provide equidistant sampling. The VDRIVE pin  
of the AD7490 takes the same supply voltage as that of the  
TMS320C541. This allows the ADC to operate at a higher  
voltage than the serial interface, that is, TMS320C541, if  
necessary.  
For example, if the ADSP-2189 with a 20 MHz crystal has an  
overall master clock frequency of 40 MHz, then the master  
cycle time is 25 ns. If the SCLKDIV register is loaded with a  
value of 3, an SCLK of 5 MHz is obtained, and eight master  
clock periods elapse for every 1 SCLK period. Depending on  
the throughput rate selected, if the timer registers are loaded  
with the value 803, 100.5 SCLKs occur between interrupts and  
subsequently between transmit instructions. This situation  
results in nonequidistant sampling because the transmit instruc-  
tion occurs on a SCLK edge. If the number of SCLKs between  
interrupts is a figure of N, equidistant sampling is implemented  
by the DSP.

AD7490 to DSP563xx  
The connection diagram in Figure 32 shows how the AD7490  
can be connected to the ESSI (synchronous serial interface) of  
the DSP563xx family of DSPs from Motorola. Each ESSI (two  
on board) is operated in synchronous mode (the SYN bit in  
CRB = 1) with internally generated word length frame sync for  
both Tx and Rx (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 WL1 = 1 and WL0 = 0 in  
CRA. The FSP bit in the CRB should be set to 1 so the frame  
sync is negative. Note that for signal processing applications, it  
is imperative that the frame synchronization signal from the

and analog signals. Traces on opposite sides of the board should  
run at right angles to each other. This reduces 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, and signals are placed on the solder side.  
AD7490  
DSP563xx*  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should  
be decoupled with 10 µF tantalum in parallel with 0.1 µF capaci-  
tors to AGND. 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 inductance (ESI), such as the common ceramic types or  
surface mount types, which provide a low impedance path to  
ground at high frequencies to handle transient currents due to  
internal logic switching.

Figure 32. Interfacing to the DSP563xx  
In the example shown in Figure 32, the serial clock is taken  
from the ESSI so the SCK0 pin must be set as an output, SCKD  
= 1. The AD7490 VDRIVE pin takes the same supply voltage as  
that of the DSP563xx. This allows the ADC to operate at a  
higher voltage than the serial interface, that is, DSP563xx, if  
necessary.  
PCB Design Guidelines for Chip Scale Package  
The lands on the chip scale package (CP-32) are rectangular.  
The printed circuit board pad for these should be 0.1 mm  
longer than the package land length and 0.05 mm wider than  
the package land width. The land should be centered on the  
pad. This ensures that the solder joint size is maximized. The  
bottom of the chip scale package has a central thermal pad. The  
thermal pad on the printed circuit board should be at least as  
large as this exposed pad. On the printed circuit board, there  
should be a clearance of at least 0.25 mm between the thermal  
pad and the inner edges of the pad pattern. This ensures that  
shorting is avoided. Thermal vias can be used on the printed  
circuit board thermal pad to improve thermal performance of  
the package. If vias are used, they should be incorporated in the  
thermal pad at 1.2 mm pitch grid. The via diameter should be  
between 0.3 mm and 0.33 mm, and the via barrel should be  
plated with 1 oz. copper to plug the via. The user should  
connect the printed circuit board thermal pad to AGND.  
APPLICATION HINTS  
Grounding and Layout  
The AD7490 has very good immunity to noise on the power  
supplies shown in the PSRR vs. Supply Ripple Frequency plot,  
Figure 7. Care should still be taken, however, with regard to  
grounding and layout.  
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7490 should be  
designed 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 separated easily. A minimum  
etch technique is generally best for ground planes because it  
gives the best shielding. All three AGND pins of the AD7490  
should be sunk in the AGND plane. Digital and analog ground  
planes should be joined at only one place. If the AD7490 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 AD7490.  
Evaluating the AD7490 Performance  
The recommended layout for the AD7490 is outlined in the  
evaluation board for the AD7490. The evaluation board package  
includes a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documen-  
tation, and software for controlling the board from the PC via  
the EVAL-CONTROL BRD2. The EVAL-CONTROL BRD2 can  
be used in conjunction with the AD7490 evaluation board, as  
well as many other Analog Devices, Inc., evaluation boards  
ending in the CB designator, to demonstrate and evaluate the ac  
and dc performance of the AD7490.  
Avoid running digital lines under the device because these  
couple noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be  
allowed to run under the AD7490 to avoid noise coupling. The  
power supply lines to the AD7490 should use as large a trace as  
possible 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  
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier  
transform) and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7490.  
The software and documentation are on a CD shipped with the  
evaluation board.
