GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD7866 is a dual 12-bit high speed, low power, 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 device contains two ADCs, each preceded by a low noise,  
wide bandwidth track-and-hold amplifier that can handle  
input frequencies in excess of 10 MHz.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. The AD7866 features two complete ADC functions, allowing  
simultaneous sampling and conversion of two channels. Each  
ADC has a 2-channel input multiplexer. The conversion result  
of both channels is available simultaneously on separate data  
lines, or may be taken on one data line if only one serial port  
is available.  
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled  
using standard control inputs, allowing easy interfacing to  
microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the  
falling edge of CS; conversion is also initiated at this point.  
The conversion time is determined by the SCLK frequency.  
There are no pipelined delays associated with the part.  
2. High Throughput with Low Power Consumption—The  
AD7866 offers a 1 MSPS throughput rate with 11.4 mW  
maximum power consumption when operating at 3 V.  
The AD7866 uses advanced design techniques to achieve  
very low power dissipation at high throughput rates. With 3 V  
supplies and 1 MSPS throughput rate, the part consumes a  
maximum of 3.8 mA. With 5 V supplies and 1 MSPS, the  
current consumption is a maximum of 4.8 mA. The part also  
offers flexible power/throughput rate management when  
operating in sleep mode.  
3. Flexible Power/Throughput Rate Management—The conver-  
sion rate is determined by the serial clock, allowing the power  
consumption to be reduced as the conversion time is reduced  
through a SCLK frequency increase. Power efficiency can be  
maximized at lower throughput rates if the part enters sleep  
during conversions.  
The analog input range for the part can be selected to be a 0 V  
to VREF range or a 2 ϫ VREF range with either straight binary or  
twos complement output coding. The AD7866 has an on-chip  
2.5 V reference that can be overdriven if an external reference  
is preferred. Each on-board ADC can also be supplied with a  
separate individual external reference.  
4. No Pipeline Delay—The part features two standard successive  
approximation ADCs with accurate control of the sampling  
instant via a CS input and once off conversion control.  
The AD7866 is available in a 20-lead thin shrink small outline  
(TSSOP) package.

1Sample tested at 25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 5 ns (10% to 90% of VDRIVE) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.  
2Mark/Space ratio for the CLK input is 40/60 to 60/40.  
3Measured with the load circuit of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for the output to cross 0.8 V or 2.0 V.  
4t8, t9 are derived from 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 extrapo-  
lated back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the times t8 and t9 quoted in the timing characteristics are the true  
bus relinquish times of the part and are independent of the bus loading.

1This can be used as a standalone evaluation board or in conjunction with the evaluation board controller for evaluation/demonstration purposes.  
2This evaluation board controller is a complete unit, allowing a PC to control and communicate with all Analog Devices evaluation boards ending in the CB design ators.  
To order a complete evaluation kit, the particular ADC evaluation board, e.g., EVAL-AD7866CB, the EVAL-CONTROL BRD2, and a 12 V transformer must be  
ordered. See relevant Evaluation Board Technical note for more information.  
CAUTION  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily  
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the  
AD7866 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices  
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended  
to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

must be tied to decoupling capacitors. If the REF SELECT pin is tied to a logic high, an external refer-  
ence can be supplied to the AD7866 through the VREF pin, in which case decoupling capacitors are  
required on DCAPA and DCAPB. However, if the VREF pin is tied to AGND while REF SELECT is tied to

DCAPA and DCAPB, respectively. See the Reference Configuration Options section.

Decoupling capacitors are connected to these pins to decouple the reference buffer for each respective  
ADC. The on-chip reference can be taken from these pins and applied externally to the rest of a system.  
Depending on the polarity of the REF SELECT pin and the configuration of the VREF pin, these  
pins can also be used to input a separate external reference to each ADC. The range of the external  
reference is dependent on the analog input range selected. See the Reference Configuration  
Options section.  
AGND  
VB2, VB1  
Analog Ground. Ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7866. All analog input signals  
and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage. Both of these pins should  
connect to the AGND plane of a system. The AGND and DGND voltages ideally should be at the  
same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a transient basis.

VREF  
Reference Decoupling and External Reference Selection. This pin is connected to the internal reference  
and requires a decoupling capacitor. The nominal reference voltage is 2.5 V, which appears at the pin;  
however, if the internal reference is to be used externally in a system, it must be taken from either the  
DCAPA or DCAPB pins. This pin is also used in conjunction with the REF SELECT pin when  
applying an external reference to the AD7866. See the REF SELECT pin description.

RANGE  
Analog Input Range and Output Coding Selection. Logic input. The polarity on this pin will  
determine what input range the analog input channels on the AD7866 will have, and will also select  
the type of output coding the ADC will use for the conversion result. On the falling edge of CS, the  
polarity of this pin is checked to determine the analog input range of the next conversion. If this pin  
is tied to a logic low, the analog input range is 0 V to VREF and the output coding from the part will  
be straight binary (for the next conversion). If this pin is tied to a logic high when CS goes low, the  
analog input range is 2 VREF and the output coding for the part will be twos complement. How-  
ever, if after the falling edge of CS the logic level of the RANGE pin has changed upon the eighth  
SCLK falling edge, the output coding will change to the other option without any change in the  
analog input range. (See the Analog Input and ADC Transfer Function sections.)

AVDD  
Analog Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the only supply voltage for all analog circuitry on the  
AD7866. The AVDD and DVDD voltages ideally should be at the same potential and must not be  
more than 0.3 V apart even on a transient basis. This supply should be decoupled to AGND.  
13  
DVDD  
DGND  
Digital Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for all digital circuitry on the  
AD7866. The DVDD and AVDD voltages should ideally be at the same potential and must not be  
more than 0.3 V apart even on a transient basis. This supply should be decoupled to DGND.

Serial Data Outputs. The data output is supplied to this pin as a serial data stream. The bits are  
clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. The data appears on both pins simultaneously  
from the simultaneous conversions of both ADCs. The data stream consists of one leading zero  
followed by three STATUS bits, followed by the 12 bits of conversion data. The data is provided  
MSB first. If CS is held low for another 16 SCLK cycles after the conversion data has been output  
on either DOUTA or DOUTB, the data from the other ADC follows on the DOUT pin. This allows data  
from a simultaneous conversion on both ADCs to be gathered in serial format on either DOUTA or  
DOUTB alone using only one serial port. See the Serial Interface section.

Serial Clock. Logic Input. A serial clock input provides the SCLK for accessing the data from the

Chip Select. Active low logic input. This input provides the dual function of initiating conversions on  
the AD7866 and frames the serial data transfer.

The logic state of this pin is checked upon the falling edge of CS, and the multiplexer is set up for  
the next conversion. If it is low, the following conversion will be performed on Channel 1 of each ADC;

TERMINOLOGY  
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:  
Integral Nonlinearity  
This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing  
through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The  
endpoints 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.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) = (6.02 N + 1.76) dB  
Differential Nonlinearity  
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Thus, for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB.  
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)  
Total harmonic distortion is the ratio of the rms sum of har-  
monics to the fundamental. For the AD7866, it is defined as:  
Offset Error  
This applies to Straight Binary output coding. It is the deviation  
of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to (00 . . . 001) from the  
ideal, i.e., AGND + 1 LSB.

Offset Error Match  
This is the difference in Offset Error between the two channels.  
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.  
Gain Error  
This applies to Straight Binary output coding. It is the deviation  
of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to (111 . . . 111) from  
the ideal (i.e., VREF – 1 LSB) after the offset error has been  
adjusted out.  
Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise  
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.  
Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in Gain Error between the two channels.  
Zero Code Error  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular with the 2 VREF input range as –VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the  
midscale transition (all 1s to all 0s) from the ideal VIN voltage,  
i.e., VREF – 1 LSB.  
Intermodulation Distortion  
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, and so on. 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).  
Zero Code Error Match  
This refers to the difference in Zero Code Error between the  
two channels.  
Positive Gain Error  
The AD7866 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 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 sepa-  
rately. 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 dB.  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular with the 2 VREF input range as –VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the last  
code transition (011 . . . 110) to (011 . . . 111) from the ideal  
(i.e., +VREF – 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error has been  
adjusted out.  
Negative Gain Error  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular with the 2 VREF input range as –VREF to  
+VREF biased about the VREF point. It is the deviation of the first  
code transition (100 . . . 000) to (100 . . . 001) from the ideal  
(i.e., –VREF + 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error has been  
adjusted out.  
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  
(2 VREF), 455 kHz sine wave signal to all unselected input  
channels and determining how much that signal is attenuated in the  
selected channel with a 10 kHz signal (0 V to VREF). The figure  
given is the worst-case across all four channels for the AD7866.  
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time  
The track-and-hold amplifier returns into track mode after the  
end of conversion. Track-and-hold acquisition time is the time  
required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach  
its final value, within 1/2 LSB, after the end of conversion.  
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)  
See the Performance Curves section.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SNDR)  
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

Pf = power at frequency f in ADC output, and PfS = power at  
frequency fS coupled onto the ADC AVDD supply. Here, a 100 mV  
peak-to-peak sine wave is coupled onto the AVDD supply while the  
digital supply is left unaltered. TPCs 3a and 3b show the PSRR  
of the AD7866 when there is no decoupling on the supply, while  
TPCs 4a and 4b show the PSRR with decoupling capacitors  
of 10 µF and 0.1 µF on the supply.

TPC 1 shows a typical FFT plot for the AD7866 at 1 MHz  
sample rate and 300 kHz input frequency. TPC 2 shows the  
signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio performance versus input  
frequency for various supply voltages while sampling at 1 MSPS  
with an SCLK of 20 MHz.  
TPCs 3a to 4b show the power supply rejection ratio versus  
AVDD supply ripple frequency for the AD7866 under different

as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at full-scale fre-  
quency f, to the power of a 100 mV sine wave applied to the  
ADC AVDD supply of frequency fS:  
TPCs 5 and 6 show typical DNL and INL plots for the AD7866.

AD7866  
CIRCUIT INFORMATION  
CAPACITIVE  
DAC  
The AD7866 is a fast, micropower, dual 12-bit, single supply,  
A/D converter that operates from a 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply.  
When operated from either a 5 V supply or a 3 V supply, the  
AD7866 is capable of throughput rates of 1 MSPS when provided  
with a 20 MHz clock.

CONTROL  
LOGIC  
SW1

COMPARATOR  
The AD7866 contains two on-chip track-and-hold amplifiers,  
two successive approximation A/D converters, and a serial inter-  
face with two separate data output pins, and is housed in a  
20-lead TSSOP package, which offers the user considerable  
space-saving advantages over alternative solutions. The serial  
clock input accesses data from the part but also provides the  
clock source for each successive approximation ADC. The ana-  
log input range for the part can be selected to be a 0 V to VREF  
input or a 2 VREF input with either straight binary or twos  
complement output coding. The AD7866 has an on-chip 2.5 V  
reference that can be overdriven if an external reference is pre-  
ferred. In addition, each ADC can be supplied with an individual  
separate external reference.  
AGND  
Figure 3. ADC Conversion Phase  
ANALOG INPUT  
Figure 4 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input structure  
of the AD7866. 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 300 mV. This will cause these diodes to become forward-  
biased and start conducting current into the substrate. 10 mA is  
the maximum current these diodes can conduct without causing  
irreversible damage to the part. The capacitor C1 in Figure 4 is  
typically about 10 pF and can primarily be attributed to pin  
capacitance. The resistor R1 is a lumped component made up  
of the on resistance of a switch. This resistor is typically about  
100 . The capacitor C2 is the ADC sampling capacitor and  
has a capacitance of 20 pF typically. 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 will  
significantly affect the ac performance of the ADC. This may  
necessitate the use of an input buffer amplifier. The choice of the  
op amp will be a function of the particular application.  
The AD7866 also features power-down options to allow power  
saving between conversions. The power-down feature is imple-  
mented across the standard serial interface, as described in the  
Modes of Operation section.  
CONVERTER OPERATION  
The AD7866 has two successive approximation analog-to-digital  
converters, each based around a capacitive DAC. Figures 2 and  
3 show simplified schematics of one of these ADCs. The ADC  
is comprised of control logic, a SAR, and a capacitive DAC, all  
of 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 2 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 VA1, for example.

AGND  
When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input, the source  
impedance should be limited to low values. The maximum  
source impedance will depend on the amount of total harmonic  
distortion (THD) that can be tolerated. The THD will increase  
as the source impedance increases, and performance will degrade  
(see TPC 7).  
Figure 2. ADC Acquisition Phase  
When the ADC starts a conversion (see Figure 3), SW2 will  
open and SW1 will move 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 condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the  
conversion is complete. The Control Logic generates the ADC  
output code. Figures 10 and 11 show the ADC transfer functions.

AD7866  
Analog Input Ranges  
that the analog input range selected must not exceed VDD. The  
logic input A0 is used to select the pair of channels to be converted  
simultaneously. The logic state of this pin is also checked upon  
the falling edge of CS, and the multiplexers are set up for the  
next conversion. If it is low, the following conversion will be  
performed on Channel 1 of each ADC; if it is high, the following  
conversion will be performed on Channel 2 of each ADC.  
The analog input range for the AD7866 can be selected to be 0 V  
to VREF or 2 VREF with either straight binary or twos complement  
output coding. The RANGE pin is used to select both the analog  
input range and the output coding, as shown in Figures 5 to 8.  
On the falling edge of CS, point A, the logic level of the RANGE  
pin is checked to determine the analog input range of the next  
conversion. If this pin is tied to a logic low, the analog input  
range will be 0 V to VREF and the output coding from the part will  
be straight binary (for the next conversion). If this pin is at a logic  
high when CS goes low, the analog input range will be 2 VREF and  
the output coding for the part will be twos complement. How-  
ever, if after the falling edge of CS, the logic level of the  
RANGE pin has changed upon the eighth falling SCLK edge,  
point B, the output coding will change to the other option without  
any change in the analog input range. So for the next conversion,  
twos complement output coding could be selected with a 0 V to  
VREF input range, for example, if the RANGE pin is low upon  
the falling edge of CS and high upon the eighth falling SCLK  
edge, as shown in Figure 7. Figures 5 to 8 show examples of  
timing diagrams for selections of different analog input ranges  
with various output coding formats. Table I summarizes the  
required logic level of the RANGE pin for each selection. Note  
Handling Bipolar Input Signals  
Figure 9 shows how useful the combination of the 2 VREF  
input range and the twos complement output coding scheme is  
for handling bipolar input signals. If the bipolar input signal  
is biased about VREF and twos complement output coding is  
selected, then VREF becomes the zero code point, –VREF is  
negative full-scale, and +VREF becomes positive full-scale with a  
dynamic range of 2 VREF  
.
Transfer Functions  
The designed code transitions occur at successive integer LSB  
values (i.e., 1 LSB, 2 LSB, and so on). The LSB size is VREF/4096.  
The ideal transfer characteristic for the AD7866 when straight  
binary coding is selected is shown in Figure 10, and the ideal  
transfer characteristic for the AD7866 when twos complement  
coding is selected is shown in Figure 11.

Another advantage of SCLK, RANGE, REF SELECT, A0, and  
CS not being restricted by the VDD + 0.3 V limit is that power  
supply sequencing issues are avoided. If one of these digital inputs  
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

AD7866  
The AD7866 also has the VDRIVE feature, which 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 AD7866 was operated with a VDD of 5 V, the  
VDRIVE pin could be powered from a 3 V supply, allowing a large  
dynamic range with low voltage digital processors. For example,  
the AD7866 could be used with the 2 VREF input range, with a  
VDD of 5 V while still being able to interface to 3 V digital parts.

AD7866  
The AD7866 has various reference configuration options. The  
REF SELECT pin allows the choice of using an internal 2.5 V  
reference or applying an external reference, or even an individual  
external reference for each on-chip ADC if desired. If the REF  
SELECT pin is tied to AGND, then the on-chip 2.5 V reference  
is used as the reference source for both ADC A and ADC B. In  
addition, pins VREF, DCAPA, and DCAPB must be tied to decoupling  
capacitors (100 nF, 470 nF, and 470 nF recommended,  
respectively). If the REF SELECT pin is tied to a logic high, an  
external reference can be supplied to the AD7866 through the  
VREF pin to overdrive the on-chip reference, in which case  
decoupling capacitors are required on DCAPA and DCAPB again.  
However, if the VREF pin is tied to AGND while REF SELECT  
is tied to a logic low, an individual external reference can be  
applied to both ADC A and ADC B through pins DCAPA and  
DCAPB, respectively. Table II summarizes these reference options.

Figure 13 shows the connections required when an external  
reference is applied to DCAPA and DCAPB. In this example, the  
same reference voltage is applied at each pin; however, a different  
voltage may be applied at each of these pins for each on-chip  
ADC. An external reference applied at these pins may have a  
range from 2 V to 3 V, but for specified performance it must be  
within 1% of 2.5 V. Figure 14 shows the third option, which is  
to overdrive the internal reference through the VREF pin. This is  
possible due to the series resistance from the VREF pin to the  
internal reference. This external reference can have a range from  
2 V to 3 V; but again, to get as close as possible to the specified

the same reference voltage applied to both DCAPA and DCAPB.  
The connections for the relevant reference pins are shown in the

AGND very close to the VREF pin. These connections are shown

The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS, as described  
in the Serial Interface section. To ensure that the part remains  
fully powered up at all times, CS must remain low until at least  
10 SCLK falling edges have elapsed after the falling edge of CS.

cycles are required to complete the conversion and access the  
conversion result. The DOUT line will not return to three-state  
after 16 SCLK cycles have elapsed, but instead when CS is  
brought high again. If CS is left low for another 16 SCLK cycles,  
the result from the other ADC on board will also be accessed on  
the same DOUT line, as shown in Figure 22 (see also the Serial  
Interface section). The STATUS bits provided prior to each  
conversion result will identify which ADC the following result  
will be from. Once 32 SCLK cycles have elapsed, the DOUT line  
will return to three-state on the 32nd SCLK falling edge. If CS is  
brought high prior to this, the DOUT line will return to three-state  
at that point. Thus, CS may idle low after 32 SCLK cycles, until  
it is brought high again sometime prior to the next conversion  
(effectively idling CS low), if so desired, since the bus will still  
return to three-state upon completion of the dual result read.  
If the on-chip 2.5 V reference is being used, and is to be applied  
externally to the rest of the system, it may be taken from either  
the VREF pin or one of the DCAPA or DCAPB pins. If it is taken  
from the VREF pin, it must be buffered before being applied  
elsewhere as it will not be capable of sourcing more than a few  
microamps. If the reference voltage is taken from either the  
DCAPA pin or DCAPB pin, a buffer is not strictly necessary. Either  
pin is capable of sourcing current in the region of 100 µA; how-  
ever, the larger the source current requirement, the greater the  
voltage drop seen at the pin. The output impedance of each of  
these pins is typically 50 . In addition, this point represents  
the actual voltage applied to the ADC internally so any voltage  
drop due to the current load or disturbance due to a dynamic  
load will directly affect the ADC conversion. For this reason, if a  
large current source is necessary or a dynamic load is present, it  
is recommended to use a buffer on the output to drive a device.  
Once a data transfer is complete and DOUTA and DOUTB have  
returned to three-state, another conversion can be initiated after  
the quiet time, tQUIET, has elapsed by bringing CS low again.  
Examples of suitable external reference devices that may be ap-  
plied at pins VREF, DCAPA, or DCAPB are the AD780, REF192,  
REF43, and AD1582.  
Partial Power-Down Mode  
This mode is intended for use in applications where slower  
throughput rates are required. Either the ADC is powered down  
between each conversion, or a series of conversions may be  
performed at a high throughput rate and the ADC is then powered  
down for a relatively long duration between these bursts of several  
conversions. When the AD7866 is in partial power-down, all  
analog circuitry is powered down except for the on-chip reference  
and reference buffer.  
MODES OF OPERATION  
The mode of operation of the AD7866 is selected by controlling  
the (logic) state of the CS signal during a conversion. There  
are three possible modes of operation: normal mode, partial  
power-down mode, and full power-down mode. The point at  
which CS is pulled high after the conversion has been initiated  
will determine which power-down mode, if any, the device will  
enter. Similarly, if already in a power-down mode, CS can  
control whether the device will return to normal operation or  
remain in power-down. These modes of operation are designed  
to provide flexible power management options. These options  
can be chosen to optimize the power dissipation/throughput  
rate ratio for differing application requirements.  
To enter partial power-down, the conversion process must be  
interrupted by bringing CS high anywhere after the second  
falling edge of SCLK and before the tenth falling edge of SCLK  
as shown in Figure 17. Once CS has been brought high in this  
window of SCLKs, the part will enter partial power-down, the  
conversion that was initiated by the falling edge of CS will be

terminated, and DOUTA and DOUTB will go back into three-  
state. If CS is brought high before the second SCLK falling  
edge, the part will remain in normal mode and will not power  
down. This will avoid accidental power-down due to glitches on  
the CS line.  
To power up from full power-down, approximately 4 ms should  
be allowed from the falling edge of CS, shown in Figure 20 as  
tPOWER UP. Powering up from partial power-down requires much  
less time. If the internal reference is being used, the power-up  
time is typically 4 µs; but if an external reference is being used,  
the power-up time is typically 1 µs. This means that with any  
frequency of SCLK up to 20 MHz, one dummy cycle will always  
be sufficient to allow the device to power up from partial power-  
down when using an external reference (see Figure 18). Once  
the dummy cycle is complete, the ADC will be fully powered up  
and the input signal will be acquired properly. A dummy cycle  
may well be sufficient to power up the part when using an internal  
reference also, provided the SCLK is slow enough to allow the  
required power-up time to elapse before a valid conversion is  
requested. In addition, it should be ensured that the quiet time,  
tQUIET, has still been allowed from the point where the bus goes  
back into three-state after the dummy conversion to the next  
falling edge of CS. Alternatively, instead of slowing the SCLK to  
make the dummy cycle long enough, the CS high time could  
just be extended to include the required power-up time (as in  
Figure 20) when powering up from full power-down.  
To exit this mode of operation and power up the AD7866 again,  
a dummy conversion is performed. On the falling edge of CS,  
the device will begin to power up, and will continue to power up  
as long as CS is held low until after the falling edge of the tenth  
SCLK. In the case of an external reference, the device will be  
fully powered up once 16 SCLKs have elapsed, and valid data  
will result from the next conversion, as shown in Figure 18. If  
CS is brought high before the second falling edge of SCLK, the  
AD7866 will again go into partial power-down. This avoids  
accidental power-up due to glitches on the CS line; although the  
device may begin to power up on the falling edge of CS, it will  
power down again on the rising edge of CS. If the AD7866 is  
already in partial power-down mode and CS is brought high  
between the second and tenth falling edges of SCLK, the device  
will enter full power-down mode. For more information on the  
power-up times associated with partial power-down in various  
configurations, see the Power-Up Times section.  
Different power-up time is needed when coming out of partial  
power-down for two cases where an internal or external refer-  
ence is being used, primarily because of the on-chip reference  
buffers. They power down in partial power-down mode and must  
be powered up again if the internal reference is being used,  
but they do not need to be powered up again if an external  
reference is being used. The time needed to power up these  
buffers is not just their own power-up time but also the time  
required to charge up the decoupling capacitors present on pins  
VREF, DCAPA, and DCAPB.  
Full Power-Down Mode  
This mode is intended for use in applications where throughput  
rates slower than those in the partial power-down mode are required,  
as power-up from a full power-down takes substantially longer  
than that from partial power-down. This mode is more suited to  
applications where a series of conversions performed at a rela-  
tively high throughput rate would be followed by a long period  
of inactivity and thus power-down. When the AD7866 is in full  
power-down, all analog circuitry is powered down. Full power-  
down is entered in a similar way as partial power-down, except  
the timing sequence shown in Figure 17 must be executed twice.  
The conversion process must be interrupted in a similar fashion  
by bringing CS high anywhere after the second falling edge of  
SCLK and before the tenth falling edge of SCLK. The device  
will enter partial power-down at this point. To reach full  
power-down, the next conversion cycle must be interrupted in  
the same way, as shown in Figure 19. Once CS has been  
brought high in this window of SCLKs, the part will power  
down completely.  
It should also be noted that during power-up from partial  
power-down, the track-and-hold, which was in hold mode while  
the part was powered down, returns to track mode after the first  
SCLK edge the part receives after the falling edge of CS. This is  
shown as point A in Figure 18.  
When power supplies are first applied to the AD7866, the ADC  
may power up in either of the power-down modes or the normal  
mode. Because of this, it is best to allow a dummy cycle to elapse  
to ensure that the part is fully powered up before attempting a  
valid conversion. Likewise, if the part is to be kept in the partial  
power-down mode immediately after the supplies are applied,  
two dummy cycles must be initiated. The first dummy cycle must  
hold CS low until after the tenth SCLK falling edge (see Figure 16);  
in the second cycle, CS must be brought high before the tenth  
SCLK edge but after the second SCLK falling edge (see Figure 17).  
Alternatively, if the part is to be placed in full power-down  
mode when the supplies have been applied, three dummy cycles  
must be initiated. The first dummy cycle must hold CS low  
until after the tenth SCLK falling edge (see Figure 16); the sec-  
ond and third dummy cycles place the part in full power-down  
(see Figure 19). See also the Modes of Operation section.  
Note that it is not necessary to complete the 16 SCLKs once  
CS has been brought high to enter a power-down mode.  
To exit full power-down and power the AD7866 up again, a  
dummy conversion is performed, as when powering up from  
partial power-down. On the falling edge of CS, the device will  
begin to power up and will continue to power up as long as CS  
is held low until after the falling edge of the tenth SCLK. The  
power-up time required must elapse before a conversion can be  
initiated, as shown in Figure 20. See the Power-Up Times sec-  
tion for the power-up times associated with the AD7866.  
Once supplies are applied to the AD7866, enough time must be  
allowed for any external reference to power up and charge any  
reference capacitor to its final value, or enough time must be  
allowed for the internal reference buffer to charge the various  
reference buffer decoupling capacitors to their final values.  
POWER-UP TIMES  
The AD7866 has two power-down modes, partial power-down  
and full power-down, which are described in detail in the Modes  
of Operation section. This section deals with the power-up time  
required when coming out of either of these modes. It should be  
noted that the power-up times quoted apply with the recommended  
capacitors on the VREF, DCAPA, and DCAPB pins in place.  
–16–  
REV. A  
AD7866  
Then, to place the AD7866 in normal mode, a dummy cycle  
(1 µs to 4 µs approximately) should be initiated. If the first valid  
conversion is performed directly after the dummy conversion,  
care must be taken to ensure that adequate acquisition time has  
been allowed. As mentioned earlier, when powering up from the  
power-down mode, the part will return to track upon the first  
SCLK edge applied after the falling edge of CS. However when  
the ADC initially powers up after supplies are applied, the  
track-and-hold will already be in track. This means that (assuming  
one has the facility to monitor the ADC supply current and thus  
determine which mode the AD7866 is in) if the ADC powers up  
in the desired mode of operation and thus a dummy cycle is not  
required to change mode, then neither is a dummy cycle required  
to place the track-and-hold into track. If no current monitoring  
facility is available, the relevant dummy cycle(s) should be  
performed to ensure the part is in the required mode.

can be said to dissipate 24 mW for 2 µs during each conversion  
cycle. For the remainder of the conversion cycle, 8 µs, the part  
remains in partial power-down mode. The AD7866 can be said to  
dissipate 2.8 mW for the remaining 8 µs of the conversion cycle.  
If the throughput rate is 100 kSPS, the cycle time is 10 µs and the  
average power dissipated during each cycle is (2/10) (24 mW) +  
(8/10) (2.8 mW) = 7.04 mW. If VDD = 3 V, SCLK = 20 MHz,  
and the device is again in partial power-down mode between  
conversions, the power dissipated during normal operation is  
11.4 mW. The AD7866 can be said to dissipate 11.4 mW for 2 µs  
during each conversion cycle and 1.68 mW for the remaining 8 µs  
when the part is in partial power-down. With a throughput rate of  
100 kSPS, the average power dissipated during each conversion  
cycle is (2/10) (11.4 mW) + (8/10) (1.68 mW) = 3.624 mW.  
Figure 21 shows the maximum power versus throughput rate  
when using the partial power-down mode between conversions  
with both 5 V and 3 V supplies for the AD7866.  
When the AD7866 is in partial power-down mode and not  
converting, the average power consumption of the ADC decreases  
at lower throughput rates. Figure 21 shows that as the through-  
put rate is reduced, the part remains in its partial power-down  
state longer, and the average power consumption over time  
drops accordingly.

THROUGHPUT – kSPS  
The CS signal initiates the data transfer and conversion process.  
The falling edge of CS puts the track-and-hold into hold mode  
and takes the bus out of three-state; the analog input is sampled  
at this point. The conversion is also initiated at this point and  
requires 16 SCLK cycles to complete. Once 13 SCLK falling  
edges have elapsed, the track-and-hold will go back into track  
on the next SCLK rising edge, as shown in Figure 22 at point  
B. On the rising edge of CS, the conversion will be terminated  
and DOUTA and DOUTB will go back into three-state. If CS is  
not brought high but is instead held low for a further 16 SCLK  
cycles on DOUTA, the data from conversion B will be output on  
Figure 21. Power vs. Throughput for Partial Power-Down  
For example, if the AD7866 is operated in a continuous sampling  
mode with a throughput rate of 100 kSPS and an SCLK of  
20 MHz (VDD = 5 V), and the device is placed in partial power-  
down mode between conversions, the power consumption is  
calculated as follows. The maximum power dissipation during  
normal operation is 24 mW (VDD = 5 V). If the power-up time  
allowed from partial power-down is one dummy cycle, i.e., 1 µs,

The polarity of this bit reflects the analog input range that has been selected with the RANGE pin.  
If it is a 0, it means that in the previous transfer upon the falling edge of the CS, the range pin was  
at a logic low, providing an analog input range from 0 V to VREF for this conversion. If it is a 1, it  
means that in the previous transfer upon the falling edge of CS, the RANGE pin was at a logic high,  
resulting in an analog input range of 2 VREF selected for this conversion. See Analog Input section.

This bit indicates from which ADC the conversion result comes. If this bit is a 0, the result is from ADC A;  
if it is a 1, the result is from ADC B. This is especially useful if only one serial port is available for

The SPORT0 control register should be set up as follows:  
DOUTA. Likewise, if CS is held low for a further 16 SCLK cycles  
on DOUTB, the data from conversion A will be output on DOUTB.  
This is illustrated in Figure 23 where the case for DOUTA is shown.  
Note that in this case, the DOUT line in use will go back into  
three-state on the 32nd SCLK rising edge or the rising edge of CS,  
whichever occurs first.

Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to perform the conversion  
process and to access data from one conversion on either data  
line of the AD7866. CS going low provides the leading zero to  
be read in by the microcontroller or DSP. The remaining data is  
then clocked out by subsequent SCLK falling edges, beginning  
with the first of three data STATUS bits. Thus the first falling  
clock edge on the serial clock has the leading zero provided and  
also clocks out the first of three STATUS bits. The final bit in  
the data transfer is valid on the sixteenth falling edge, having  
being clocked out on the previous (fifteenth) falling edge. In  
applications with a slower SCLK, it is possible to read in data on  
each SCLK rising edge, i.e., the first rising edge of SCLK after  
the CS falling edge would have the leading zero provided and  
the fifteenth rising SCLK edge would have DB0 provided. The  
three STATUS bits that follow the leading zero provide infor-  
mation with respect to the conversion result that follows them  
on the DOUT line in use. Table III shows how these identifica-  
tion bits can be interpreted.

To implement the power-down modes on the AD7866, SLEN  
should be set to 1001 to issue an 8-bit SCLK burst. The  
connection diagram is shown in Figure 24. The ADSP-218x has  
the TFS0 and RFS0 of the SPORT0 and the RFS1 of SPORT1  
tied together, with TFS0 set as an output and both RFS0 and RFS1  
set as inputs. The DSP operates in alternate framing mode and  
the SPORT control register is set up as described. The frame  
synchronization signal generated on the TFS is tied to CS and,  
as with all signal processing applications, equidistant sampling is  
necessary. However, in this example, the timer interrupt is used to  
control the sampling rate of the ADC and under certain conditions,  
equidistant sampling may not be achieved.

The serial interface on the AD7866 allows the parts to be directly  
connected to a range of many different microprocessors. This  
section explains how to interface the AD7866 with some of the  
more common microcontroller and DSP serial interface protocols.  
AD7866 to ADSP-218x  
The ADSP-218x family of DSPs is directly interfaced to the  
AD7866 without any glue logic required. The VDRIVE pin of the  
AD7866 takes the same supply voltage as that of the ADSP-218x.  
This allows the ADC to operate at a higher supply voltage than  
the serial interface, i.e., ADSP-218x, if necessary. This example  
shows both DOUT A and DOUT B of the AD7866 connected to  
both serial ports of the ADSP-218x.  
The timer and other registers are loaded with a value that will  
provide 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 there-  
fore 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 (i.e., AX0 = TX0), the state of the SCLK is  
checked. The DSP will wait until the SCLK has gone high, low,  
and high before transmission will start. 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.

AD7866  
For example, if the ADSP-2189 had a 20 MHz crystal such that it  
had a master clock frequency of 40 MHz, then the master cycle  
time would be 25 ns. If the SCLKDIV register is loaded with the  
value 3, an SCLK of 5 MHz is obtained and eight master clock  
periods will elapse for every 1 SCLK period. Depending on the  
throughput rate selected, if the timer register were loaded with the  
value, 803, (803 + 1 = 804), for example, 100.5 SCLKs would  
occur between interrupts and subsequently between transmit  
instructions. This situation would result in nonequidistant  
sampling as the transmit instruction is occurring on an SCLK  
edge. If the number of SCLKs between interrupts were a whole  
integer figure of N, equidistant sampling would be implemented  
by the DSP.  
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 25. It should be noted  
that for signal processing applications, it is imperative that the  
frame synchronization signal from the TMS320C541 will provide  
equidistant sampling. The VDRIVE pin of the AD7866 takes the  
same supply voltage as that of the TMS320C541. This allows the  
ADC to operate at a higher voltage than the serial interface, i.e.,  
TMS320C541, if necessary.  
AD7866 to DSP-563xx  
The connection diagram in Figure 26 shows how the AD7866  
can be connected to the ESSI (synchronous serial interface) of  
the DSP-563xx family of DSPs from Motorola. Each ESSI  
(there are two on-board) is operated in synchronous mode  
(bit SYN = 1 in CRB register) with internally generated word  
length frame sync for both Tx and Rx (bits 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 bits  
WL1 = 1 and WL0 = 0 in CRA. To implement the power-down  
modes on the AD7866, the word length can be changed to eight  
bits by setting bits WL1 = 0 and WL0 = 0 in CRA. The FSP bit  
in the CRB should be set to 1 to make the frame sync negative.  
It should be noted that for signal processing applications, it is  
imperative that the frame synchronization signal from the  
DSP-563xx provide equidistant sampling.

In the example shown in Figure 26, the serial clock is taken from  
the ESSI0, so the SCK0 pin must be set as an output, SCKD = 1,  
while the SCK1 pin is set up as an input, SCKD = 0. The frame  
sync signal is taken from SC02 on ESSI0, so SCD2 = 1, while  
on ESSI1, SCD2 = 0, so SC12 is configured as an input. The  
VDRIVE pin of the AD7866 takes the same supply voltage as that  
of the DSP-563xx. This allows the ADC to operate at a higher  
voltage than the serial interface, i.e., DSP-563xx, if necessary.

APPLICATION HINTS  
Grounding and Layout  
The analog and digital supplies to the AD7866 are independent  
and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between the analog  
and digital sections of the device. The AD7866 has very good  
immunity to noise on the power supplies as can be shown by the  
PSRR vs. Supply Ripple Frequency plots, TPC 3a to TPC 4b.  
However, care should be taken with regard to grounding and  
layout.  
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 AD7866. The  
CS input allows easy interfacing between the TMS320C541 and  
the AD7866 with no glue logic required. The serial ports of  
the TMS320C541 are set up to operate in burst mode with internal  
CLKX (Tx serial clock on serial port 0) and FSX0 (Tx frame sync  
from serial port 0). The serial port control (SPC) registers must have  
the following setup:  
SPC0: FO = 0, FSM = 1, MCM = 1 and TxM = 1  
SPC1: FO = 0, FSM = 1, MCM = 0 and TxM = 0  
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7866 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  
The format bit, FO, may be set to 1 to set the word length to  
eight bits, in order to implement the power-down modes on the AD7866.

etch technique is generally best for ground planes because it gives  
the best shielding. Both AGND pins of the AD7866 should be  
sunk in the AGND plane. Digital and analog ground planes  
should be joined at only one place. If the AD7866 is in a system  
where multiple devices require an AGND to DGND connec-  
tion, the connection should still be made at one point only,  
a star ground point that should be established as close as  
possible to the AD7866.  
be common ceramic or surface-mount types, which have low  
Effective Series Resistance (ESR) and Effective Series Inductance  
(ESI), and provide a low impedance path to ground at high  
frequencies for handling transient currents due to internal logic  
switching. Figure 27 shows the recommended supply decoupling  
scheme. For information on the decoupling requirements of each  
reference configuration, see the Reference Configuration  
Options section.  
Avoid running digital lines under the device since these will  
couple noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be  
allowed to run under the AD7866 to avoid noise coupling.  
The power supply lines to the AD7866 should use the largest  
trace possible to provide low impedance paths and to reduce the  
effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals  
like clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid  
radiating noise to other sections of the board, and clock signals  
should never be run near the analog inputs. Avoid crossover of  
digital and analog signals. Traces on opposite sides of the board  
should run at right angles to each other. This will reduce 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. For this technique, the component side of the board is  
dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed on the  
solder side.

Evaluating the AD7866 Performance  
The recommended layout for the AD7866 is outlined in the  
evaluation board for the AD7866. 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-controller board. The eval-controller board can be used in  
conjunction with the AD7866 evaluation board, as well as many  
other Analog Devices evaluation boards ending in the CB desig-  
nator, to demonstrate/evaluate the ac and dc performance of the  
AD7866.  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should be  
decoupled with 10 µF tantalum in parallel with 0.1 µF capacitors  
to AGND. All digital supplies should have at least a 0.1 µF disk  
ceramic capacitor to DGND. VDRIVE should have a 0.1 µF ceramic  
capacitor to DGND. To achieve the best results from these  
decoupling components, place them as close as possible to the  
device, ideally right up against it. The 0.1 µF capacitors should  
The software allows the user to perform ac (fast Fourier transform)  
and dc (histogram of codes) tests on the AD7866.
