The AD7854/AD7854L is a high speed, low-power, 12-bit  
ADC which operates from a single 3 V or 5 V power supply, the  
AD7854 being optimized for speed and the AD7854L for low  
power. The ADC powers up with a set of default conditions at  
which time it can be operated as a read-only ADC. The ADC  
contains self-calibration and system calibration options to en-  
sure accurate operation over time and temperature and has a  
number of power-down options for low power applications.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. Operation with either 3 V or 5 V power supplies.  
2. Automatic calibration on power-up.  
3. Flexible power management options including automatic  
power-down after conversion.  
The AD7854 is capable of 200 kHz throughput rate while the  
AD7854L is capable of 100 kHz throughput rate. The input  
track-and-hold acquires a signal in 500 ns and features a pseudo-  
differential sampling scheme. The AD7854 and AD7854L input  
voltage range is 0 to VREF (unipolar) and –VREF/2 to +VREF/2,  
centered at VREF/2 (bipolar). The coding is straight binary in  
unipolar mode and twos complement in bipolar mode. Input  
signal range is to the supply and the part is capable of convert-  
ing full-power signals to 100 kHz.  
4. Operates with reference voltages from 1.2 V to AVDD  
.
5. Analog input ranges from 0 V to AVDD  
6. Self- and system-calibration.  
7. Versatile parallel I/0 port.  
.
8. Lower power version AD7854L.  
CMOS construction ensures low power dissipation of typically  
5.4 mW for normal operation and 3.6 µW in power-down mode.  
The part is available in 28-pin, 0.3 inch wide dual-in-line pack-  
age (DIP), 28-lead small outline (SOIC) and 28-lead small  
shrink outline (SSOP) packages.

7The offset and gain calibration spans are defined as the range of offset and gain errors that the AD7853/AD7853L can calibrate. Note also that these are voltage spans  
and are not absolute voltages (i.e., the allowable system offset voltage presented at AIN(+) for the system offset error to be adjusted out will be AIN(–) ±0.05 × VREF  
and the allowable system full-scale voltage applied between AIN(+) and AIN(–) for the system full-scale voltage error to be adjusted out will be VREF ± 0.025 × VREF  
(unipolar mode) and VREF/2 ± 0.025 × VREF (bipolar mode)). This is explained in more detail in the calibration section of the data sheet.

NOTES  
1Sample tested at +25°C to ensure compliance. 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  
Table TBD and timing diagrams for different interface modes and calibration.  
2Mark/Space ratio for the master clock input is 40/60 to 60/40.  
3The CONVST pulse width here only applies for normal operation. When the part is in power-down mode, a different CONVST pulse width applies (see Power-  
Down section).  
4Measured with the load circuit of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for the output to cross 0.8 V or 2.4 V.  
5t9 is derived form the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 1. The measured number is then extrapolated  
back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 100 pF capacitor. This means that the time, t 9, quoted in the timing characteristics is the true bus relinquish  
time of the part and is independent of the bus loading.  
6The typical time specified for the calibration times is for a master clock of 4 MHz. For the L version the calibration times will be longer than those quoted here due to  
the 1.8 MHz master clock.

TERMINOLOGY  
Total Harmonic Distortion  
Integral Nonlinearity  
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of  
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7853/AD7853L, it is  
defined as:  
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 1/2 LSB  
below the first code transition, and full scale, a point 1/2 LSB  
above the last code transition.

V1  
Differential Nonlinearity  
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 is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Total Unadjusted Error  
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise  
This is the deviation of the actual code from the ideal code tak-  
ing all errors into account (Gain, Offset, Integral Nonlinearity,  
and other errors) at any point along the transfer function.  
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 deter-  
mined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for ADCs  
where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it will be a  
noise peak.  
Unipolar Offset Error  
This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000 to  
00 . . . 001) from the ideal AIN(+) voltage (AIN(–) + 1/2 LSB)  
when operating in the unipolar mode.  
Positive Full-Scale Error  
Intermodulation Distortion  
This applies to the unipolar and bipolar modes and is the deviation  
of the last code transition from the ideal AIN(+) voltage after the  
offset error has been adjusted out. For unipolar mode, the ideal  
AIN(+) voltage is (AIN(–) + VREF – 1.5 LSB). For bipolar mode,  
the ideal AIN(+) voltage is (AIN(-) +VREF/2 – 1.5 LSB).  
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and  
fb, any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion  
products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb where  
m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. Intermodulation distortion terms are  
those for which neither m nor n are equal to zero. 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).  
Negative Full-Scale Error  
This applies to the bipolar mode only and is the deviation of the  
first code transition (00 . . . 000 to 00 . . . 001) from the ideal  
AIN(+) voltage (AIN(–) – VREF/2 + 0.5 LSB).  
Testing is performed 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 fre-  
quency from the original sine waves while 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 as 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 dBs.  
Bipolar Zero Error  
This is the deviation of the midscale transition (all 0s to all 1s)  
from the ideal AIN(+) voltage (AIN(–) – 1/2 LSB).  
Track/Hold Acquisition Time  
The track/hold amplifier returns into track mode and the end of  
conversion. Track/Hold acquisition time is the time required for  
the output of the track/hold amplifier to reach its final value,  
within ±1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion.  
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) Ratio  
This is the measured ratio of signal to (noise + distortion) at the  
output of the A/D converter. The signal is the rms amplitude of  
the fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental sig-  
nals 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 quantiza-  
tion noise. The theoretical signal to (noise + distortion) ratio for  
an ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by:  
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.02 N +1.76) dB  
Thus for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB.

Analog Input. Negative input of the pseudo-differential analog input. Cannot go below AGND or above  
AVDD at any time.  
High Byte Enable Input. The AD7854 operates in byte mode only but outputs 12 bits of data during a  
read cycle with HBEN low. When HBEN is high then the high byte of data that is written to or read from  
the part is on DB0 to DB7. When HBEN is low then the lowest byte of data being written to the part is on  
DB0 to DB7. If reading from the part with HBEN low then the lowest 12 bits of data appear on pins DB0  
to DB11. This allows a single read from the ADC or from the control register in a 16-bit bus system.  
However, two reads are needed to access the calibration registers. Also, two writes are necessary to write to  
any of the registers.

AD7854/AD7854L  
AD7854/AD7854L ON-CHIP REGISTERS  
The AD7854/AD7854L powers up with a set of default conditions, and the user need not ever write to the device. In this case the  
AD7854/AD7854L will operate as a read-only ADC. The WR pin should be tied to DVDD for operating the AD7854/AD7854L as a  
read-only ADC.  
Extra features and flexibility such as performing different power-down options, different types of calibrations including system cali-  
bration, and software conversion start can be selected by writing to the part.  
The AD7854/AD7854L contains a control register, ADC output data register, status register, test register and 10 calibra-  
tion registers. The control register is write-only, the ADC output data register and the status register are read-only, and the test and  
calibration registers are both read/write registers. The test register is used for testing the part and should not be written to.  
Addressing the On-Chip Registers  
Writing  
To write to the AD7854/AD7854L, a 16-bit word of data must be transferred. This transfer consists of two 8-bit writes. The first  
8 bits of data that are written must consist of the 8 LSBs of the 16-bit word and the second 8 bits that are written must consist of the  
8 MSBs of the 16-bit word. For each of these 8-bit writes, the data is placed on Pins DB0 to DB7, Pin DB0 being the LSB of each  
transfer and Pin DB7 being the MSB of each transfer. The two MSBs of the 16-bit word, ADDR1 and ADDR0, are decoded to de-  
termine which register is addressed, and the 14 LSBs are written to the addressed register. Table I shows the decoding of the address  
bits, while Figure 2 shows the overall write register hierarchy.

To read from the various registers the user must first write to Bits 6 and 7 in the Control Register, RDSLT0 and RDSLT1. These

bits while Figure 3 shows the overall read register hierarchy. The power-up status of these bits is 00 so that the default read will be  
from the ADC output data register.  
Once the read selection bits are set in the control register all subsequent read operations that follow are from the selected register un-

bit position selects range –VREF/2 to +VREF/2 (i.e., AIN(+) – AIN(–) = –VREF /2 to +VREF/2). AIN(+)  
cannot go below AGND, so for this range, AIN(–) needs to be biased to at least +VREF/2 to allow

CALIBRATION REGISTERS  
The AD7854/AD7854L has 10 calibration registers in all, 8 for the DAC, 1 for offset and 1 for gain. Data can be written to or read  
from all 10 calibration registers. In self and system calibration, the part automatically modifies the calibration registers; only if the  
user needs to modify the calibration registers should an attempt be made to read from and write to the calibration registers.  
Addressing the Calibration Registers  
The calibration selection bits in the control register CALSLT1 and CALSLT0 determine which of the calibration registers are ad-  
dressed (See Table IV). The addressing applies to both the read and write operations for the calibration registers. The user should  
not attempt to read from and write to the calibration registers at the same time.

Writing to/Reading from the Calibration Registers  
When reading from the calibration registers there are always two

When writing to the calibration registers a write to the control  
register is required to set the CALSLT0 and CALSLT1 bits.  
When reading from the calibration registers a write to the con-  
trol register is required to set the CALSLT0 and CALSLT1 bits  
and also to set the RDSLT1 and RDSLT0 bits to 10 (this ad-  
dresses the calibration registers for reading). The calibration  
register pointer is reset on writing to the control register setting  
the CALSLT1 and CALSLT0 bits, or upon completion of all  
the calibration register write/read operations. When reset it  
points to the first calibration register in the selected write/read  
sequence. The calibration register pointer points to the gain  
calibration register upon reset in all but one case, this case being  
where the offset calibration register is selected on its own  
(CALSLT1 = 1, CALSLT0 = 0). Where more than one cali-  
bration register is being accessed, the calibration register pointer  
is automatically incremented after each calibration register  
write/read operation. The order in which the 10 calibration reg-  
isters are arranged is shown in Figure 5. Read/Write operations  
may be aborted at any time before all the calibration registers  
have been accessed, and the next control register write opera-  
tion resets the calibration register pointer. The flowchart in Fig-

1310.72; rounding to the nearest number gives 1311. In

This method of compensating for offset in the analog input sig-

Adjusting the Gain Calibration Register  
The gain calibration register contains 16 bits. The two MSBs  
are zero and the 14 LSBs contain gain data. As in the offset cali-  
bration register the data bits in the gain calibration register are  
binary weighted, with the MSB having a weighting of 2.5% of  
the reference voltage. The gain register value is effectively multi-  
plied by the analog input to scale the conversion result over the  
full range. Increasing the gain register compensates for a  
smaller analog input range and decreasing the gain register com-  
pensates for a larger input range. The maximum analog input  
range that the gain register can compensate for is 1.025 times  
the reference voltage, and the minimum input range is 0.975  
times the reference voltage.  
Figure 7. Flowchart for Reading from the Calibration  
Registers  
Adjusting the Offset Calibration Register  
The offset calibration register contains 16 bits. The two MSBs  
are zero and the 14 LSBs contain offset data. By changing the  
contents of the offset register, different amounts of offset on the  
analog input signal can be compensated for. Increasing the  
number in the offset calibration register compensates for nega-  
tive offset on the analog input signal, and decreasing the num-  
ber in the offset calibration register compensates for positive  
offset on the analog input signal. The default value of the offset  
calibration register is 0010 0000 0000 0000 approximately. This  
is not the exact value, but the value in the offset register should  
be close to this value. Each of the 14 data bits in the offset regis-  
ter is binary weighted; the MSB has a weighting of 5% of the  
reference voltage, the MSB-1 has a weighting of 2.5%, the  
MSB-2 has a weighting of 1.25%, and so on down to the LSB  
which has a weighting of 0.0006%. This gives a resolution of

track/hold goes from track to hold mode. The falling edge of the  
CLKIN signal which follows the rising edge of CONVST ini-  
tiates the conversion, provided the rising edge of CONVST (or  
WR when converting via the control register) occurs typically at  
least 10 ns before this CLKIN edge. The conversion takes  
16.5 CLKIN periods from this CLKIN falling edge. If the  
10 ns setup time is not met, the conversion takes 17.5 CLKIN  
periods.  
The AD7854/AD7854L is a fast, 12-bit single supply A/D con-  
verter. The part requires an external 4 MHz/1.8 MHz master  
clock (CLKIN), two CREF capacitors, a CONVST signal to start  
conversion and power supply decoupling capacitors. The part  
provides the user with track/hold, on-chip reference, calibration  
features, A/D converter and parallel interface logic functions on  
a single chip. The A/D converter section of the AD7854/  
AD7854L consists of a conventional successive-approximation  
converter based around a capacitor DAC. The AD7854/  
AD7854L accepts an analog input range of 0 to +VREF. VREF  
can be tied to VDD. The reference input to the part connected  
via a 150 kresistor to the internal 2.5 V reference and to the  
on-chip buffer.  
The time required by the AD7854/AD7854L to acquire a signal  
depends upon the source resistance connected to the AIN(+)  
input. Please refer to the Acquisition Time section for more  
details.  
When a conversion is completed, the BUSY output goes low,  
and the result of the conversion can be read by accessing the  
data through the data bus. To obtain optimum performance  
from the part, read or write operations should not occur during  
the conversion or less than 200 ns prior to the next CONVST  
rising edge. Reading/writing during conversion typically de-  
grades the Signal to (Noise + Distortion) by less than 0.5 dBs.  
The AD7854 can operate at throughput rates of over 200 kSPS  
(up to 100 kSPS for the AD7854L).  
A major advantage of the AD7854/AD7854L is that a conver-  
sion can be initiated in software as well as applying a signal to  
the CONVST pin. Another innovative feature of the AD7854/  
AD7854L is self-calibration on power-up to give superior dc  
accuracy. The part should be allowed some time after power-up  
and after the CONVST signal is applied to perform this auto-  
matic calibration before any reading or writing takes place. The  
part is available in a 28-pin SSOP package and this offers the  
user considerable spacing saving advantages over alternative  
solutions. The AD7854L version typically consumes only  
5.5 mW making it ideal for battery-powered applications.  
With the AD7854L, 100 kSPS throughput can be obtained as  
follows: the CLKIN and CONVST signals are arranged to give  
a conversion time of 16.5 CLKIN periods as described above  
and 1.5 CLKIN periods are allowed for the acquisition time.  
With a 1.8 MHz clock, this gives a full cycle time of 10 µs,  
which equates to a throughput rate of 100 kSPS.  
CONVERTER DETAILS  
The master clock for the part is applied to the CLKIN pin.  
Conversion is initiated on the AD7854/AD7854L by pulsing the  
CONVST input or by writing to the control register and setting  
the CONVST bit to 1. On the rising edge of CONVST (or at  
the end of the control register write operation), the on-chip  
When using the software conversion start for maximum  
throughput, the user must ensure the control register write  
operation extends beyond the falling edge of BUSY. The falling  
edge of BUSY resets the CONVST bit to 0 and allows it to be  
reprogrammed to 1 to start the next conversion.

TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM  
DC/AC Applications  
Figure 8 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7854/  
AD7854L. The AGND and the DGND pins are connected to-  
gether at the device for good noise suppression. The first  
CONVST applied after power-up starts the automatic calibra-  
tion sequence. The WR line is tied to DVDD to ensure that  
there is no writing to the device. Applying the RD and CS sig-  
nals causes the conversion result to be output on the 12 data pins.  
Note that after power is applied to AVDD and DVDD, and the  
CONVST signal is applied, the part requires (70 ms + 1/sample  
rate) for the internal reference to settle and for the automatic  
calibration on power-up to be completed.  
For dc applications, high source impedances are acceptable,  
provided there is enough acquisition time between conversions  
to charge the 20 pF capacitor. For example with RIN = 5 k,  
the required acquisition time is 922 ns.  
For ac applications, removing high frequency components from  
the analog input signal is recommended by use of an RC low-  
pass filter on the AIN(+) pin, as shown in Figure 11. In applica-  
tions 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 per-  
formance of the ADC. They may require the use of an input  
buffer amplifier. The choice of the amplifier is a function of the  
particular application.  
For applications where power consumption is a major concern,  
the power-down options can be programmed by writing to the  
part. See Power-Down section for more detail on low power  
applications.  
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. Figure 10  
shows a graph of the total harmonic distortion vs. analog input  
signal frequency for different source impedances. With the  
setup as in Figure 11, the THD is at the –90 dB level. With a  
source impedance of 1 kand no capacitor on the AIN(+) pin,  
the THD increases with frequency.  
ANALOG INPUT  
The equivalent analog input circuit is shown in Figure 9. Dur-  
ing the acquisition interval the switches are both in the track  
position and the AIN(+) charges the 20 pF capacitor through  
the 125 resistance. On the rising edge of CONVST switches  
SW1 and SW2 go into the hold position retaining charge on the  
20 pF capacitor as a sample of the signal on AIN(+). The  
AIN(–) is connected to the 20 pF capacitor, and this unbalances  
the voltage at Node A at the input of the comparator. The  
capacitor DAC adjusts during the remainder of the conversion  
cycle to restore the voltage at Node A to the correct value. This  
action transfers a charge, representing the analog input signal, to  
the capacitor DAC which in turn forms a digital representation  
of the analog input signal. The voltage on the AIN(–) pin di-  
rectly influences the charge transferred to the capacitor DAC at  
the hold instant. If this voltage changes during the conversion  
period, the DAC representation of the analog input voltage is  
altered. Therefore it is most important that the voltage on the  
AIN(–) pin remains constant during the conversion period. Fur-  
thermore, it is recommended that the AIN(–) pin is always con-  
nected to AGND or to a fixed dc voltage.

In a single supply application (both 3 V and 5 V), the V+ and  
V– of the op amp can be taken directly from the supplies to the  
AD7854/AD7854L which eliminates the need for extra external  
power supplies. When operating with rail-to-rail inputs and out-  
puts at frequencies greater than 10 kHz, care must be taken in  
selecting the particular op amp for the application. In particular,  
for single supply applications the input amplifiers should be  
connected in a gain of –1 arrangement to get the optimum per-  
formance. Figure 11 shows the arrangement for a single supply  
application with a 50 and 10 nF low-pass filter (cutoff fre-  
quency 320 kHz) on the AIN(+) pin. Note that the 10 nF is a  
capacitor with good linearity to ensure good ac performance.  
Recommended single supply op amps are the AD820 and the  
AD820-3V.

Acquisition Time  
The track-and-hold amplifier enters its tracking mode on the  
falling edge of the BUSY signal. The time required for the  
track-and-hold amplifier to acquire an input signal depends on  
how quickly the 20 pF input capacitance is charged. There is a  
minimum acquisition time of 400 ns. For large source imped-  
ances, >2 k, the acquisition time is calculated using the formula:  
t
ACQ = 9 × (RIN + 125 ) × 20 pF  
where RIN is the source impedance of the input signal, and  
125 , 20 pF is the input R, C.

Note that the AIN(–) pin on the AD7854/AD7854L can be bi-  
ased up above AGND in the unipolar mode, or above VREF/2 in  
bipolar mode if required. The advantage of biasing the lower  
end of the analog input range away from AGND is that the ana-  
log input does not have to swing all the way down to AGND.  
Thus, in single supply applications the input amplifier does not  
have to swing all the way down to AGND. The upper end of the  
analog input range is shifted up by the same amount. Care must  
be taken so that the bias applied does not shift the upper end of  
the analog input above the AVDD supply. In the case where the  
reference is the supply, AVDD, the AIN(–) should be tied to  
AGND in unipolar mode or to AVDD/2 in bipolar mode.

AD7854/AD7854L PERFORMANCE CURVES  
Figure 18 shows a typical FFT plot for the AD7854 at 200 kHz  
sample rate and 10 kHz input frequency.  
For specified performance, it is recommended that when using  
an external reference, this reference should be between 2.3 V  
and the analog supply AVDD. The connections for the reference  
pins are shown below. If the internal reference is being used,  
the REFIN/REFOUT pin should be decoupled with a 10 nF  
capacitor to AGND very close to the REFIN/REFOUT pin. These  
connections are shown in Figure 16.

150 nV/Hz @ 1 kHz and dc noise is 100 µV p-p.

5.0V SUPPLIES  
The REFIN/REFOUT pin may be overdriven by connecting it to  
an external reference. This is possible due to the series resis-  
tance from the REFIN/REFOUT pin to the internal reference.  
5.0V SUPPLIES, L VERSION  
3.3V SUPPLIES  
This external reference can be in the range 2.3 V to AVDD  
.
When using AVDD as the reference source, the 10 nF capacitor  
from the REFIN/REFOUT pin to AGND should be as close as  
possible to the REFIN/REFOUT pin, and also the CREF1 pin  
should be connected to AVDD to keep this pin at the same volt-  
age as the reference. The connections for this arrangement are  
shown in Figure 17. When using AVDD it may be necessary to  
add a resistor in series with the AVDD supply. This has the effect  
of filtering the noise associated with the AVDD supply.

Figure 19. SNR vs. Frequency  
Figure 20 shows the power supply rejection ratio versus fre-  
quency for the part. The power supply rejection ratio is defined  
as the ratio of the power in ADC output at frequency f to the  
power of a full-scale sine wave.  
Note that when using an external reference, the voltage present  
at the REFIN/REFOUT pin is determined by the external refer-  
ence source resistance and the series resistance of 150 kfrom  
the REFIN/REFOUT pin to the internal 2.5 V reference. Thus, a  
low source impedance external reference is recommended.  
PSRR (dB) = 10 log (Pf/Pfs)  
Pf = Power at frequency f in ADC output, Pfs = power of a full-  
scale sine wave. Here a 100 mV peak-to-peak sine wave is  
coupled onto the AVDD supply while the digital supply is left  
unaltered. Both the 3.3 V and 5.0 V supply performances are

The advantage of partial power-down is that the part requires  
significantly less time to “power-up” than from full power-  
down. In partial power-down, the reference voltage stays pow-  
ered up, so if this is being used external to the AD7854/  
AD7854L it is still available even though the rest of the  
AD7854/AD7854L is powered down. Table VI summarizes the  
power management options while Table VII shows typical  
power-up times when using the 2.5 V internal reference. The  
capacitor values between CREF1, CREF2, REFIN/REFOUT and  
AGND are also listed. The power-up time is defined as the time  
taken for the output code to settle to within ±0.5 LSBs of its  
final value. If a power-up time shorter than that quoted in Table  
VII is used, the error associated with the output code increases.  
For a power-up time of 10 µs from partial power-down mode,  
the output code settles to within ±3 LSBs typically of its final  
value. When using an external reference, the power-up time  
required is less than the figures quoted in Table VII.

POWER-DOWN OPTIONS  
The AD7854/AD7854L should be left idle for (70 ms + 1/sample  
rate) typically after the AVDD and the DVDD power-up, and the  
first CONVST signal is applied, to allow the internal reference  
to settle and the automatic calibration on power-up to be com-  
pleted. The SLEEP pin can be hardwired to DGND before  
power-up as the part disables the function of the SLEEP pin  
while the automatic calibration on power-up is being performed.  
A typical connection diagram for a low power application is  
shown in Figure 21.  
The AD7854/AD7854L provides two power-down methods of  
operation. These methods are full power-down and partial  
power-down. These power-down methods are controlled by the

pin may be used as in Figure 22. When writing to the AD7854/  
AD7854L there are a number of different ways to utilize the  
power-down options. For applications which require throughput  
rates of less than 2 kHz, a full/partial power-down mode combi-  
nation, or a full power-down mode on its own, may be used.  
For higher throughput rates the partial power-down mode  
should be used. Table VIII shows the recommended power-  
down mode to obtain the lowest current at a given throughput  
rate.

Power-up times and throughput rates quoted in this section are  
based on using the 2.5 V internal reference. If an external refer-  
ence is used and is powered on constantly, or if AVDD is used as  
the reference, then the power-up times are shorter and the  
throughput rates higher.

The CONVST pin may be used to wake the part from two of  
the power down modes (full power-down if not converting and  
partial power-down if not converting), rather than writing to the  
control register to wake up the part. First, the part should be  
put into one of these two power down modes by writing to the  
device (setting PMGT1 = 0 and PMGT0 = 1, or setting both  
PMGT1 and PMGT0 = 1). When using CONVST to wake the  
part, it is the falling edge of the CONVST signal that “wakes”  
it. CONVST must remain low for at least the power up time  
quoted in Table VII when using the internal reference (CONVST  
need only remain low for 50 µs when using an external refer-  
ence). This allows the part to settle before the start of the next  
conversion. Figure 22 shows the timing ofCONVST for bringing  
the part out of full power down when using the internal reference.  
Using Full and Partial Power-Down Combination  
Using a full/partial power-down combination has the benefits of  
the low current associated with a full power-down and the speed  
of powering up from a partial power-down. It also gives the low-  
est current for a given throughput rate, one third of the current  
when using the full power-down mode on its own. Figure 23  
shows the timing diagram for the full/partial power-down com-  
bination and Figure 24 shows the flowchart for the sequence of  
events. For the all 0s write operation described in the sequence,  
only the two MSBs need to be 0 to ensure that the rest of the  
data write is ignored. The supply current versus throughput rate  
for this power up/power down sequence is shown in Figure 25.

ensures that the calibration options covered in this section are  
not required in a significant amount of applications. A calibra-  
tion does not have to be initiated unless the operating condi-  
tions change (CLKIN frequency, analog input mode, reference  
voltage, temperature, and supply voltages). The AD7854/  
AD7854L has a number of calibration features that may be  
required in some applications and there are a number of advan-  
tages in performing these different types of calibration. First, the  
internal errors in the ADC can be reduced significantly to give  
superior dc performance; and second, system offset and gain  
errors can be removed. This allows the user to remove reference  
errors (whether it be internal or external reference) and to make  
use of the full dynamic range of the AD7854/AD7854L by  
adjusting the analog input range of the part for a specific system.

There are two main calibration modes on the AD7854/  
AD7854L, self-calibration and system calibration. There are  
various options in both self-calibration and system calibration as  
outlined previously in Table III. All the calibration functions  
are initiated by writing to the control register and setting the  
STCAL bit to 1.  
WAIT 50µs POWER-UP TIME  
The duration of each of the different types of calibration is given  
in Table IX for the AD7854 with a 4 MHz master clock. These  
calibration times are master clock dependent. Therefore the  
calibration times for the AD7854L (CLKIN = 1.8 MHz) are  
larger than those quoted in Table IX.

Automatic Calibration on Power-On  
The automatic calibration on power-on is initiated by the first  
CONVST pulse after the AVDD and DVDD power on. From the  
CONVST pulse the part internally sets a 32/72 ms (4 MHz/  
1.8 MHz CLKIN) timeout. This time is large enough to ensure  
that the internal reference has settled before the calibration is  
performed. However, if an external reference is being used, this  
reference must have stabilized before the automatic calibration  
is initiated. This first CONVST pulse also triggers the BUSY  
signal high and once the 32/72 ms has elapsed the BUSY signal  
goes low. At this point the next CONVST pulse that is applied  
initiates the automatic full self calibration. This CONVST pulse  
again triggers the BUSY signal high and after 32/72 ms (4 MHz/  
1.8 MHz CLKIN) the calibration is completed and the BUSY  
signal goes low. This timing arrangement is shown in Figure 29.  
The times in Figure 29 assume a 4 MHz / 1.8 MHz CLKIN  
signal.

The CONVST signal is gated with the BUSY internally so that  
as soon as the timeout is initiated by the first CONVST pulse all  
subsequent CONVST pulses are ignored until the BUSY signal  
goes low, 32/72 ms later. The CONVST pulse that follows after  
the BUSY signal goes low initiates an automatic full self calibra-  
tion. This takes a further 32/72 ms. After calibration, the part is  
accurate to the 12-bit level and the specifications quoted on the  
data sheet apply, and all subsequent CONVST pulses initiate  
conversions. There is no need to perform another calibration  
unless the operating conditions change or unless a system cali-  
bration is required.

This autocalibration at power-on is disabled if the user writes to  
the control register before the autocalibration is initiated. If the  
control register write operation occurs during the first 32/72 ms  
timeout period, then the BUSY signal stays high for the 32/72  
ms and the CONVST pulse that follows the BUSY going low  
does not initiate an automatic full self calibration. It initiates a  
conversion and all subsequent CONVST pulses initiate conver-  
sions as well. If the control register write operation occurs when  
the automatic full self calibration is in progress, then the calibra-  
tion is not be aborted; the BUSY signal remains high until the  
automatic full self calibration is complete.  
Figure 30. Timing Diagram for Full Self-Calibration  
For the self-(gain + offset), self-offset and self-gain calibrations,  
the BUSY line is triggered high at the end of the write to the  
control register and stays high for the full duration of the self-  
calibration. The length of time for which BUSY is high depends  
on the type of self-calibration that is initiated. Typical values are  
given in Table IX. The timing diagram for the other self-  
calibration options is similar to that outlined in Figure 30.  
System Calibration Description  
System calibration allows the user to remove system errors  
external to the AD7854/AD7854L, as well as remove the errors  
of the AD7854/AD7854L itself. The maximum calibration  
range for the system offset errors is ±5% of VREF and for the  
system gain errors, it is ±2.5% of VREF. If the system offset or  
system gain errors are outside these ranges, the system calibration  
algorithm reduces the errors as much as the trim range allows.  
Self-Calibration Description  
There are four different calibration options within the self-  
calibration mode. There is a full self-calibration where the  
DAC, internal offset, and internal gain errors are removed.  
There is the (Gain + Offset) self-calibration which removes the  
internal gain error and then the internal offset errors. The inter-  
nal DAC is not calibrated here. Finally, there are the self-offset  
and self-gain calibrations which remove the internal offset errors  
and the internal gain errors respectively.  
The internal capacitor DAC is calibrated by trimming each of  
the capacitors in the DAC. It is the ratio of these capacitors to  
each other that is critical, and so the calibration algorithm  
ensures that this ratio is at a specific value by the end of the  
calibration routine. For the offset and gain there are two  
separate capacitors, one of which is trimmed during offset  
calibration and one of which is trimmed during gain calibration.

Figures 33 through 35 illustrate why a specific type of system  
calibration might be used. Figure 31 shows a system offset cali-  
bration (assuming a positive offset) where the analog input  
range has been shifted upwards by the system offset after the  
system offset calibration is completed. A negative offset may  
also be removed by a system offset calibration.

The architecture of the AD7854/AD7854L leads to an interac-  
tion between the system offset and gain errors when a system  
calibration is performed. Therefore it is recommended to per-  
form the cycle of a system offset calibration followed by a sys-  
tem gain calibration twice. When a system offset calibration is  
performed, the system offset error is reduced to zero. If this is  
followed by a system gain calibration, then the system gain error  
is now zero, but the system offset error is no longer zero. A sec-  
ond sequence of system offset error calibration followed by a  
system gain calibration is necessary to reduce system offset error  
to below the 12-bit level. The advantage of doing separate sys-  
tem offset and system gain calibrations is that the user has more  
control over when the analog inputs need to be at the required  
levels, and the CONVST signal does not have to be used.

Alternatively, a system (gain + offset) calibration can be per-  
formed. At the end of one system (gain + offset) calibration, the  
system offset error is zero, while the system gain error is reduced  
from its initial value. Three system (gain + offset) calibrations  
are required to reduce the system gain error to below the 12-bit  
error level. There is never any need to perform more than three  
system (gain + offset) calibrations.

Finally in Figure 33 both the system offset error and gain error  
are removed by the system offset followed by a system gain cali-  
bration. First the analog input range is shifted upwards by the  
positive system offset and then the analog input range is

System Calibration Timing  
The timing diagram for a system offset or system gain calibra-  
tion is shown in Figure 35. Here again a write to the control  
register initiates the calibration sequence. At the end of the con-  
trol register write operation the BUSY line goes high and it  
stays high until the calibration sequence is finished. The analog  
input should be set at the correct level for a minimum setup  
time (tSETUP) of 100 ns before the CS rising edge and stay at the  
correct level until the BUSY signal goes low.  
The timing diagram in Figure 34 is for a software full system  
calibration. It may be easier in some applications to perform  
separate gain and offset calibrations so that the CONVST bit in  
the control register does not have to be programmed in the  
middle of the system calibration sequence. Once the write to the  
control register setting the bits for a full system calibration is  
completed, calibration of the internal DAC is initiated and the  
BUSY line goes high. The full-scale system voltage should be  
applied to the analog input pins, AIN(+) and AIN(–) at the start  
of calibration. The BUSY line goes low once the DAC and  
system gain calibration are complete. Next the system offset  
voltage should be applied across the AIN(+) and AIN(–) pins  
for a minimum setup time (tSETUP) of 100 ns before the rising  
edge of CS. This second write to the control register sets the  
CONVST bit to 1 and at the end of this write operation the  
BUSY signal is triggered high (note that a CONVST pulse can  
be applied instead of this second write to the control register).  
The BUSY signal is low after a time tCAL2 when the system offset  
calibration section is complete. The full system calibration is now  
complete.

Reading  
The timing diagram for a read cycle is shown in Figure 36. The  
CONVST and BUSY signals are not shown here as the read  
cycle may occur while a conversion is in progress or after the  
conversion is complete.  
In the case where the AD7854/AD7854L is operated as a read-  
only ADC, the WR pin can be tied permanently high. The read  
operation need only consist of one read if the system has a 12-  
bit or a 16-bit data bus.  
When both the CS and RD signals are tied permanently low a  
different timing arrangement results, as shown in Figure 37.  
Here the data is output a time t20 before the falling edge of the  
BUSY signal. This allows the falling edge of BUSY to be used  
for latching the data. Again if HBEN is low during the conver-  
sion the 12 LSBs of the 16-bit word will be output on pins DB0  
to DB11. Bringing HBEN high causes the 8 MSBs of the 16-bit  
word to be output on pins DB0 to DB7. Note that with this  
arrangement the data lines are always active.  
The HBEN signal is low for the first read and high for the sec-  
ond read. This ensures that it is the lower 12 bits of the 16-bit  
word are output in the first read and the 8 MSBs of the 16-bit  
word are output in the second read. If required, the HBEN  
signal may be high for the first read and low for the second  
read to ensure that the high byte is output in the first read  
and the lower byte in the second read. The CS and RD sig-  
nals are gated together internally and level triggered active  
low. Both CS and RD may be tied together as the timing speci-  
fication for t5 and t6 are both 0 ns min. The data is output a  
time t8 after both CS and RD go low. The RD rising edge  
should be used to latch the data by the user and after a time t9  
the data lines will go into their high impedance state.

on pins DB0 to DB7 (DB0 being the LSB of the 8-bit read).  
If the system has a 12-bit or a 16-bit data bus, only one read op-

Writing  
The timing diagram for a write cycle is shown in Figure 38. The  
CONVST and BUSY signals are not shown here as the write  
cycle may occur while a conversion is in progress or after the  
conversion is complete.  
To write a 16-bit word to the AD7854/AD7854L, two 8-bit  
writes are required. The HBEN signal must be low for the first  
write and high for the second write. This ensures that it is the  
lower 8 bits of the 16-bit word are latched in the first write and  
the 8 MSBs of the 16-bit word are latched in the second write.  
For both write operations the 8 bits of data should be present on  
pins DB0 to DB7 (DB0 being the LSB of the 8-bit write). Any  
data on pins DB8 to DB11 is ignored when writing to the  
device. The CS and WR signals are gated together internally.  
Both CS and WR may be tied together as the timing specifica-  
tion for t13 and t14 are both 0 ns min. The data is latched on the  
rising edge of WR. The data needs to be setup a time t16 before  
the WR rising edge and held for a time t17 after the WR rising

AD7854/AD7854L  
PARALLEL INTERFACING  
AD7854/AD7854L to TMS32020, TMS320C25 and TMS320C5x  
A parallel interface between the AD7854/AD7854L and the  
TMS32020, TMS320C25 and TMS320C5X family of DSPs  
are shown in Figure 40. The memory mapped addresses chosen  
for the AD7854/AD7854L should be chosen to fall in the I/O  
memory space of the DSPs.  
The parallel port on the AD7854/AD7854L allows the device to  
be interfaced to microprocessors or DSP processors as a memory  
mapped or I/O mapped device. The CS and RD inputs are  
common to all memory peripheral interfacing. Typical inter-  
faces to different processors are shown in Figures 39 to 42.  
In all the interfaces shown, an external timer controls the  
CONVST input of the AD7854/AD7854L and the BUSY out-  
put interrupts the host DSP. Also, the HBEN pin is connected  
to address line A0 (XA0 in the case of the TMS320C30). This  
maps the AD7854/AD7854L to two locations in the processor  
memory space, ADCaddr and ADCaddr+1. Thus when writing  
to the ADC, first the 8 LSBs of the 16-bit are written to address  
location ADCaddr and then the 8 MSBs to location ADCaddr+1.  
All the interfaces use a 12-bit data bus, so onlyone read is needed  
from location ADCaddr to access the ADC output data register  
or the status register. To read from the other registers, the  
8 MSBs must be read from location ADCaddr+1. Interfacing  
to 8-bit bus systems is similar, except that two reads are  
required to obtain data from all the registers.  
The parallel interface on the AD7854/AD7854L is fast enough  
to interface to the TMS32020 with no extra wait states. In the  
TMS320C25 interface, data accesses may be slowed sufficiently  
when reading from and writing to the part to require the inser-  
tion of one wait state. In such a case, this wait state can be gen-  
erated using the single OR gate to combine the CS and MSC  
signals to drive the READY line of the TMS320C25, as shown  
in Figure 40. Extra wait states are necessary when using the  
TMS320C5x at their fastest clock speeds. Wait states can be  
programmed via the IOWSR and CWSR registers (please see  
TMS320C5x User Guide for details).  
Data is read from the ADC using the following instruction:  
IN D,ADCaddr  
where D is the memory location where the data is to be stored  
and ADCaddr is the I/O address of the AD7854/AD7854L.  
AD7854/AD7854L to ADSP-21xx  
Figure 39 shows the AD7854/AD7854L interfaced to the  
ADSP-21xx series of DSPs as a memory mapped device. A  
single wait state may be necessary to interface the AD7854/  
AD7854L to the ADSP-21xx depending on the clock speed of  
the DSP. This wait state can be programmed via the data  
memory waitstate control register of the ADSP-21xx (please see  
ADSP-2100 Family Users Manual for details). The following  
instruction reads data from the AD7854/AD7854L:  
Data is written to the ADC using the following two instructions:  
OUT D8LSB, ADCaddr  
OUT D8MSB, ADCaddr+1  
where D8LSB is the memory location where the 8 LSBs of data  
are stored, D8MSB is the location where the 8 MSBs of data are  
stored and ADCaddr and ADCaddr+1 are the I/O memory  
spaces that the AD7854/AD7854L is mapped into.

AD7854/AD7854L to TMS320C30  
Figure 41 shows a parallel interface between the AD7854/  
AD7854L and the TMS320C3X family of DSPs. The  
AD7854/AD7854L is interfaced to the Expansion Bus of the  
TMS320C3X. Two wait states are required in this interface.  
These can be programmed using the WTCNT bits of the  
Expansion Bus Control register (see TMS320C3X Users guide  
for details). Data from the AD7854/AD7854L can be read  
using the following instruction:  
Figure 42 shows a parallel interface between the AD7854/  
AD7854L and the DSP5600x series of DSPs. The AD7854/  
AD7854L should be mapped into the top 64 locations of Y data  
memory. If extra wait states are needed in this interface, they  
can be programmed using the Port A bus control register (please  
see DSP5600x User’s Manual for details). Data can be read  
from the DSP5600x using the following instruction:  
MOVE Y:ADCaddr, X0  
LDI *ARn,Rx  
Data can be written to the AD7854/AD7854L using the follow-  
ing two instructions:  
Data can be loaded into the AD7854/AD7854L using the  
instructions:  
MOVE X0, Y:ADCaddr  
STI Ry,*ARn++  
STI Rz,*ARn--  
MOVE X1, Y:ADCaddr+1  
Where ADCaddr is the address in the DSP5600X address space  
where ARn is an auxiliary register containing the lower 16 bits  
of the address of the AD7854/AD7854L in the TMS320C3X  
memory space, Rx is the register into which the ADC data is  
loaded during a load operation, Ry contains the 8 LSBs of  
data and Rz contains the 8 MSBs of data to be written to the  
AD7854/AD7854L.

CONFIGURING THE AD7853/AD7853L  
AD7853/AD7853L as a Read-Only ADC  
The AD7853/AD7853L contains fourteen on-chip registers  
which can be accessed via the serial interface. In the majority of  
applications it is not necessary to access all of these registers.  
Figure 23 outlines a flowchart of the sequence which is used to  
configure the AD7853/AD7853L as a Read-Only ADC. In this  
case there is no writing to the on-chip registers and only the  
conversion result data is read from the part. Interface Mode 1  
cannot be used in this case as it is necessary to write to the con-  
trol register to set Interface Mode 1. Here the CLKIN signal is  
applied directly after power-on, the CLKIN signal must be  
present to allow the part to perform a calibration. This auto-  
matic calibration is completed approximately 150 ms after  
power-on.

Evaluating the AD7854/AD7854L Performance  
APPLICATION HINTS  
The recommended layout for the AD7854/AD7854L is outlined  
in the evaluation board for the AD7854/AD7854L. The evalua-  
tion board package includes a fully assembled and tested evalua-  
tion board, documentation, and software for controlling the  
board from the PC via the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD. The  
EVAL-CONTROL BOARD can be used in conjunction with  
the AD7854/AD7854L Evaluation board, as well as many other  
Analog Devices evaluation boards ending in the CB designator,  
to demonstrate/evaluate the ac and dc performance of the  
AD7854/AD7854L.  
Grounding and Layout  
The analog and digital supplies of the AD7854/AD7854L are  
independent and separately pinned out to minimize coupling  
between the analog and digital sections of the device. The part  
has very good immunity to noise on the power supplies as can  
be seen by the PSRR versus frequency graph. However, care  
should still be taken with regard to grounding and layout.  
The printed circuit board on which the AD7854/AD7854L is  
mounted 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  
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 AD7854/AD7854L is the only device requiring an AGND  
to DGND connection, then the ground planes should be  
connected at the AGND and DGND pins of the AD7854/  
AD7854L. If the AD7854/AD7854L 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 which should be established as close as possible to the  
AD7854/AD7854L.  
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier trans-  
form) and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7854/  
AD7854L. It also gives full access to all the AD7854/AD7854L  
on-chip registers allowing for various calibration and power-  
down options to be programmed.  
AD785x Family  
All parts are 12 bits, 200 kSPS, 3.0 V to 5.5 V.  
AD7853 – Single Channel Serial  
AD7854 – Single Channel Parallel  
AD7858 – Eight Channel Serial  
AD7859 – Eight Channel Parallel  
Avoid running digital lines under the device as these couple  
noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be allowed  
to run under the AD7854/AD7854L to avoid noise coupling.  
The power supply lines to the AD7854/AD7854L 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 and the data inputs 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.  
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  
while signals are placed on the solder side.  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should  
be decoupled with a 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with  
0.1 µF disc ceramic capacitor to AGND. All digital supplies  
should have a 0.1 µF disc ceramic capacitor to DGND. To  
achieve the best performance from these decoupling compo-  
nents, they must 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  
AD7854/AD7854L, it is recommended that the system’s AVDD  
supply is used. In this case an optional 10 resistor between  
the AVDD pin and DVDD pin can help to filter noise from digital  
circuitry. This supply should have the recommended analog  
supply decoupling capacitors between the AVDD pin of the  
AD7854/AD7854L and AGND and the recommended digital  
supply decoupling capacitor between the DVDD pin of the  
AD7854/AD7854L and DGND.
