GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD7927 is a 12-bit, high speed, low power, 8-channel,  
successive-approximation ADC. The part operates from a single  
2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply and features throughput rates up  
to 200 kSPS. The part contains a low noise, wide bandwidth  
track-and-hold amplifier that can handle input frequencies in  
excess of 8 MHz.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. High Throughput with Low Power Consumption.  
The AD7927 offers up to 200 kSPS throughput rates. At the  
maximum throughput rate with 3 V supplies, the AD7927  
dissipates 3.6 mW of power maximum.  
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled  
using CS and the serial clock signal, allowing the device to  
easily interface with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal  
is sampled on the falling edge of CS and the conversion is also  
initiated at this point. There are no pipeline delays associated  
with the part.  
2. Eight Single-Ended Inputs with a Channel Sequencer.  
A consecutive sequence of channels, through which the ADC  
will cycle and convert on, can be selected.  
The AD7927 uses advanced design techniques to achieve very low  
power dissipation at maximum throughput rates. At maximum  
throughput rates, the AD7927 consumes 1.2 mA maximum  
with 3 V supplies; with 5 V supplies, the current consumption is  
1.5 mA maximum.  
3. Single-Supply Operation with VDRIVE Function.  
The AD7927 operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V supply. The  
VDRIVE function allows the serial interface to connect directly  
to either 3 V or 5 V processor systems independent of AVDD  
.
Through the configuration of the Control Register, the analog  
input range for the part can be selected as 0 V to REFIN or 0 V to  
2 ¥ REFIN, with either straight binary or twos complement output  
coding. The AD7927 features eight single-ended analog inputs  
with a channel sequencer to allow a preprogrammed selection of  
channels to be converted sequentially.  
4. Flexible Power/Serial Clock Speed Management.  
The conversion rate is determined by the serial clock, allowing  
the conversion time to be reduced through the serial clock  
speed increase. The part also features various shutdown modes  
to maximize power efficiency at lower throughput rates. Current  
consumption is 0.5 mA maximum when in full shutdown.  
The conversion time for the AD7927 is determined by the SCLK  
frequency, as this is also used as the master clock to control the  
conversion. The conversion time may be as short as 800 ns with  
a 20 MHz SCLK.  
5. No Pipeline Delay.  
The part features a standard successive-approximation ADC  
with accurate control of the sampling instant via a CS input  
and once off conversion control.

NOTES  
1Sample tested at 25C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of AVDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.  
See Figure 1. The 3 V operating range spans from 2.7 V to 3.6 V. The 5 V operating range spans from 4.75 V to 5.25 V.  
2Mark/Space ratio for the SCLK 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 0.4 V or 0.7 ¥ VDRIVE  
.
4t8 is 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 extrapolated  
back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means the time, quoted in the timing characteristics t8, is the true bus relinquish time  
of the part and is independent of the bus loading.

3 This board is a complete unit allowing a PC to control and communicate with all Analog Devices evaluation boards ending in the CB designators.  
To order a complete evaluation kit, you will need to order the particular ADC evaluation board, e.g., EVAL-AD7927CB, the EVAL-CONTROL  
BRD2, and a 12 V ac transformer. See the relevant Evaluation Board Application 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  
AD7927 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.

AVDD  
Analog Power Supply Input. The AVDD range for the AD7927 is from 2.7 V to 5.25 V. For the  
0 V to 2 ¥ REFIN range, AVDD should be from 4.75 V to 5.25 V.

Analog Input 0 through Analog Input 7. Eight single-ended analog input channels that are multiplexed  
into the on-chip track-and-hold. The analog input channel to be converted is selected by using the  
address bits ADD2 through ADD0 of the Control Register. The address bits in conjunction with the  
SEQ and SHADOW bits allow the sequencer to be programmed. The input range for all input channels  
can extend from 0 V to REFIN or 0 V to 2 ¥ REFIN, as selected via the RANGE bit in the Control Register.  
Any unused input channels should be connected to AGND to avoid noise pickup.

DOUT  
Data Out. Logic output. The conversion result from the AD7927 is provided on this output as a serial  
data stream. The bits are clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input. The data stream from the  
AD7927 consists of two leading zeros, two address bits indicating which channel the conversion result  
corresponds to, followed by the 12 bits of conversion data, MSB first. The output coding may be  
selected as straight binary or twos complement via the CODING bit in the Control Register.  
VDRIVE  
Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin determines at what voltage the serial interface  
of the AD7927 will operate.

TERMINOLOGY  
Negative Gain Error Match  
Integral Nonlinearity  
This is the difference in Negative Gain Error between any two  
channels.  
This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing  
through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The end-  
points of the transfer function are zero-scale, a point 1 LSB  
below the first code transition, and full-scale, a point 1 LSB  
above the last code transition.  
Channel-to-Channel Isolation  
Channel-to-Channel Isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk  
between channels. It is measured by applying a full-scale 400 kHz  
sine wave signal to all seven nonselected input channels and deter-  
mining how much that signal is attenuated in the selected channel  
with a 50 kHz signal. The figure is given worst case across all  
eight channels for the AD7927.  
Differential Nonlinearity  
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB  
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.  
Offset Error  
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)  
This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to  
(00 . . . 001) from the ideal, i.e., AGND + 1 LSB.  
Variations in power supply will affect the full-scale transition,  
but not the converters linearity. Power supply rejection is the  
maximum change in full-scale transition point due to a change  
in power supply voltage from the nominal value. See Typical  
Performance Characteristics.  
Offset Error Match  
This is the difference in offset error between any two channels.  
Gain Error  
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time  
This is the deviation of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to  
(111 . . . 111) from the ideal (i.e., REFIN 1 LSB) after the  
offset error has been adjusted out.  
The track-and-hold amplifier returns into track mode at 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 LSB, after the end of conversion.  
Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in gain error between any two channels.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio  
Zero Code Error  
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 signals  
up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio  
is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digiti-  
zation process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization  
noise. The theoretical signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio for an  
ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by:  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 ¥ REFIN input range with REFIN  
to +REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of  
the midscale transition (all 0s to all 1s) from the ideal VIN volt-  
age, i.e., REFIN 1 LSB.  
Zero Code Error Match  
This is the difference in Zero Code Error between any two  
channels.  
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76)dB  
Positive Gain Error  
Thus for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 dB.  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 ¥ REFIN input range with REFIN  
to +REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of  
the last code transition (011. . .110) to (011 . . . 111) from the  
ideal (i.e., +REFIN 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error has been  
adjusted out.  
Total Harmonic Distortion  
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of  
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7927, it is defined as:  
V22 +V32 +V42 +V52 +V62  
THD(dB) = 20log  
V
1
Positive Gain Error Match  
This is the difference in Positive Gain Error between any 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.  
Negative Gain Error  
This applies when using the twos complement output coding  
option, in particular to the 2 ¥ REFIN input range with REF IN  
to +REFIN biased about the REFIN point. It is the deviation of  
the first code transition (100 . . . 000) to (100 . . . 001) from the  
ideal (i.e., REF IN + 1 LSB) after the Zero Code Error has  
been adjusted out.

CONTROL REGISTER  
The Control Register on the AD7927 is a 12-bit, write-only register. Data is loaded from the DIN pin of the AD7927 on the falling  
edge of SCLK. The data is transferred on the DIN line at the same time that the conversion result is read from the part. The data  
transferred on the DIN line corresponds to the AD7927 configuration for the next conversion. This requires 16 serial clocks for every  
data transfer. Only the information provided on the first 12 falling clock edges (after CS falling edge) is loaded to the Control Register.  
MSB denotes the first bit in the data stream. The bit functions are outlined in Table I.

Invalid Selection. This configuration is not allowed.  
SEQUENCER OPERATION  
The configuration of the SEQ and SHADOW bits in the  
Control Register allows the user to select a particular mode of  
operation of the sequencer function. Table IV outlines the four  
modes of operation of the sequencer.  
Table IV. Sequence Selection

This configuration means that the sequence function is not used. The analog input channel selected for each  
individual conversion is determined by the contents of the channel address bits ADD0 through ADD2 in each  
prior write operation. This mode of operation reflects the traditional operation of a multichannel ADC, without  
the sequencer function being used, where each write to the AD7927 selects the next channel for conversion. (See  
Figure 2.)

This configuration selects the Shadow Register for programming. The following write operation will load the  
contents of the Shadow Register. This will program the sequence of channels to be converted on continuously with  
each successive valid CS falling edge. (See Shadow Register, Table V, and Figure 3.) The channels selected need  
not be consecutive.

If the SEQ and SHADOW bits are set in this way, the sequence function will not be interrupted upon completion  
of the WRITE operation. This allows other bits in the Control Register to be altered between conversions while  
in a sequence, without terminating the cycle.  
This configuration is used in conjunction with the channel address bits ADD2 to ADD0 to program continuous  
conversions on a consecutive sequence of channels from Channel 0 to a selected final channel as determined by the  
channel address bits in the Control Register. (See Figure 4.)

which the AD7927 will cycle with each consecutive conversion  
after the write to the Shadow Register. Sequence One will be  
performed first and then Sequence Two. If the user does not  
wish to preform a second sequence option, then all 0s must be  
written to the last eight LSBs of the Shadow Register. To select  
a sequence of channels, the associated channel bit must be set for  
each analog input. The AD7927 will continuously cycle through  
the selected channels in ascending order, beginning with the  
lowest channel, until a write operation occurs (i.e., the WRITE bit  
is set to 1) with the SEQ and SHADOW bits configured in any  
way except 1,0. (See Table IV.) The bit functions are outlined  
in Table V.  
The Shadow Register on the AD7927 is a 16-bit, write-only  
register. Data is loaded from the DIN pin of the AD7927 on the  
falling edge of SCLK. The data is transferred on the DIN line at  
the same time that a conversion result is read from the part. This  
requires 16 serial clock falling edges for the data transfer. The  
information is clocked into the Shadow Register, provided that the  
SEQ and SHADOW bits were set to 0,1, respectively, in the  
previous write to the Control Register. MSB denotes the first bit  
in the data stream. Each bit represents an analog input from  
Channel 0 to Channel 7. Through programming the Shadow  
Register, two sequences of channels may be selected, through

CIRCUIT INFORMATION  
Figure 6. ADC Conversion Phase  
The AD7927 is a high speed, 8-channel, 12-bit, single supply,  
A/D converter. The part can be operated from a 2.7 V to 5.25 V  
supply. When operated from either a 5 V or 3 V supply, the AD7927  
is capable of throughput rates of 200 kSPS. The conversion time  
may be as short as 800 ns when provided with a 20 MHz clock.  
Analog Input  
Figure 7 shows an equivalent circuit of the analog input structure  
of the AD7927. The two diodes D1 and D2 provide ESD pro-  
tection 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 7 is  
typically about 4 pF and can primarily be attributed to pin capaci-  
tance. The resistor R1 is a lumped component made up of the on  
resistance of a switch (track-and-hold switch) and also includes  
the on resistance of the input multiplexer. The total resistance is  
typically about 400 W. The capacitor C2 is the ADC sampling  
capacitor and has a capacitance of 30 pF typically. For ac appli-  
cations, 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 AD7927 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold,  
A/D converter, and a serial interface housed in a 20-lead TSSOP  
package. The AD7927 has eight single-ended input channels  
with a channel sequencer, allowing the user to select a channel  
sequence through which the ADC can cycle with each consecu-  
tive CS falling edge. The serial clock input accesses data from  
the part, controls the transfer of data written to the ADC, and  
provides the clock source for the successive-approximation A/D  
converter. The analog input range for the AD7927 is 0 V to  
REFIN or 0 V to 2 ¥ REFIN, depending on the status of Bit 1 in  
the Control Register. For the 0 to 2 ¥ REFIN range, the part  
must be operated from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply.  
The AD7927 provides flexible power management options to  
allow the user to achieve the best power performance for a given  
throughput rate. These options are selected by programming the  
Power Management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the Control Register.  
CONVERTER OPERATION  
The AD7927 is a 12-bit successive approximation analog-to-  
digital converter based around a capacitive DAC. The AD7927  
can convert analog input signals in the range 0 V to REFIN or 0 V  
to 2 ¥ REFIN. Figures 5 and 6 show simplified schematics of the  
ADC. The ADC is comprised of Control Logic, SAR, and a  
Capacitive DAC that are used to add and subtract fixed amounts  
of charge from the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator  
back into a balanced condition. Figure 5 shows the ADC during  
its acquisition phase. SW2 is closed and SW1 is in position A.  
The comparator is held in a balanced condition and the sampling  
capacitor acquires the signal on the selected VIN channel.  
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 5.)

TYPICAL CONNECTION DIAGRAM  
Figure 11 shows a typical connection diagram for the AD7927.  
In this setup, the AGND pin is connected to the analog ground  
plane of the system. In Figure 11, REFIN is connected to a  
decoupled 2.5 V supply from a reference source, the AD780, to  
provide an analog input range of 0 V to 2.5 V (if RANGE bit is 1)  
or 0 V to 5 V (if RANGE bit is 0). Although the AD7927 is con-  
nected to a AVDD of 5 V, the serial interface is connected to a 3 V  
microprocessor. The VDRIVE pin of the AD7927 is connected to  
the same 3 V supply of the microprocessor to allow a 3 V logic  
interface (see the Digital Inputs section). The conversion result is  
output in a 16-bit word. This 16-bit data stream consists of one

to easily interface to both 3 V and 5 V processors. For example,  
if the AD7927 were operated with an AVDD of 5 V, the VDRIVE  
pin could be powered from a 3 V supply. The AD7927 has a  
larger dynamic range with an AVDD of 5 V while still being  
able to interface to 3 V processors. Care should be taken to  
ensure VDRIVE does not exceed AVDD by more than 0.3 V. (See  
Absolute Maximum Ratings.)  
Any one of eight analog input channels may be selected for  
conversion by programming the multiplexer with the address bits  
ADD2 though ADD0 in the Control Register. The channel con-  
figurations are shown in Table II.  
The AD7927 may also be configured to automatically cycle through  
a number of channels as selected. The sequencer feature is  
accessed via the SEQ and SHADOW bits in the Control Register  
(see Table IV). The AD7927 can be programmed to continuously  
convert on a selection of channels in ascending order. The analog  
input channels to be converted on are selected through program-  
ming the relevant bits in the Shadow Register (see Table V).  
The next serial transfer will then act on the sequence programmed  
by executing a conversion on the lowest channel in the selection.  
The next serial transfer will result in the conversion on the next  
highest channel in the sequence, and so on.  
The Reference  
An external reference source should be used to supply the 2.5 V  
reference to the AD7927. Errors in the reference source will result  
in gain errors in the AD7927 transfer function and will add to the  
specified full-scale errors of the part. A capacitor of at least 0.1 mF  
should be placed on the REFIN pin. Suitable reference sources for  
the AD7927 include the AD780, REF 193, and the AD1582.  
If 2.5 V is applied to the REFIN pin, the analog input range can  
be either 0 V to 2.5 V or 0 V to 5 V, depending on the setting of  
the RANGE bit in the Control Register.  
It is not necessary to write to the Control Register once a sequencer  
operation has been initiated. The WRITE bit must be set to  
zero or the DIN line tied low to ensure that the Control Register  
is not accidently overwritten, or the sequence operation inter-  
rupted. If the Control Register is written to at any time during  
the sequence, the user must ensure that the SEQ and SHADOW  
bits are set to 1,0 to avoid interrupting the automatic conversion  
sequence. This pattern will continue until such time as the AD7927  
is written to and the SEQ and SHADOW bits are configured with  
any bit combination except 1,0. On completion of the sequence,  
the AD7927 sequencer will return to the first selected channel  
in the Shadow Register and commence the sequence again.  
MODES OF OPERATION  
The AD7927 has a number of different modes of operation,  
which 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. The  
mode of operation of the AD7927 is controlled by the power  
management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the Control Register, as  
detailed in Table III. When power supplies are first applied to  
the AD7927, care should be taken to ensure that the part is  
placed in the required mode of operation. (See the Powering  
Up the AD7927 section.)  
Rather than selecting a particular sequence of channels, a number  
of consecutive channels beginning with Channel 0 may also be  
programmed via the Control Register alone without needing to  
write to the Shadow Register. This is possible if the SEQ and  
SHADOW bits are set to 1,1. The channel address bits ADD2  
through ADD0 will then determine the final channel in the con-  
secutive sequence. The next conversion will be on Channel 0,  
then Channel 1, and so on until the channel selected via the ad-  
dress bits ADD2 through ADD0 is reached. The cycle will begin  
again on the next serial transfer provided the WRITE bit is set  
to low, or if high, that the SEQ and SHADOW bits are set to  
1,0; then the ADC will continue its preprogrammed automatic  
sequence uninterrupted.  
Normal Mode (PM1 = PM0 = 1)  
This mode is intended for the fastest throughput rate perfor-  
mance as the user does not have to worry about any power-up  
times with the AD7927 remaining fully powered at all times.  
Figure 12 shows the general diagram of the operation of the  
AD7927 in this mode.  
The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of CS and the track  
and hold will enter hold mode as described in the Serial Interface  
section. The data presented to the AD7927 on the DIN line during  
the first 12 clock cycles of the data transfer are loaded into the  
Control Register (provided WRITE bit is 1). If data is to be  
written to the Shadow Register (SEQ = 0, SHADOW = 1 on  
previous write), data presented on the DIN line during the first  
16 SCLK cycles is loaded into the Shadow Register. The part  
will remain fully powered up in Normal mode at the end of the  
conversion as long as PM1 and PM0 are set to 1 in the write  
transfer during that conversion. To ensure continued operation  
in Normal mode, PM1 and PM0 are both loaded with 1 on every  
data transfer. Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to complete  
the conversion and access the conversion result. The track and  
hold will go back into track on the 14th SCLK falling edge. CS  
may then idle high until the next conversion or may idle low until  
sometime prior to the next conversion (effectively idling CS low).  
Regardless of which channel selection method is used, the 16-bit  
word output from the AD7927 during each conversion will  
always contain one leading zero, three channel address bits  
that the conversion result corresponds to, followed by the 12-bit  
conversion result. (See the Serial Interface section.)  
Digital Inputs  
The digital inputs applied to the AD7927 are not limited by the  
maximum ratings that limit the analog inputs. Instead, the digital  
inputs applied can go to 7 V and are not restricted by the AVDD  
+ 0.3 V limit as on the analog inputs.  
Another advantage of SCLK, DIN, and CS not being restricted  
by the AVDD + 0.3 V limit is that possible power supply sequencing  
issues are avoided. If CS, DIN, or SCLK are applied before  
AVDD, there is no risk of latch-up as there would be on the analog  
For specified performance, the throughput rate should not exceed  
200 kSPS, which means there should be no less than 5 ms between  
consecutive falling edges of CS when converting. The actual  
frequency of SCLK used will determine the duration of the  
conversion within this 5 ms cycle; however, once a conversion is  
complete and CS has returned high, a minimum of the quiet  
time, tquiet, must elapse before bringing CS low again to initiate  
another conversion.

Auto Shutdown (PM1 = 0, PM0 = 1)  
In this mode, the AD7927 automatically enters shutdown at the  
end of each conversion when the Control Register is updated. When  
the part is in shutdown, the track and hold is in Hold Mode.  
Figure 14 shows the general diagram of the operation of the  
AD7927 in this mode. In Shutdown Mode all internal circuitry on  
the AD7927 is powered down. The part retains information in  
the Control Register during shutdown. The AD7927 remains in  
shutdown until the next CS falling edge it receives. On this CS  
falling edge, the track and hold that was in hold while the part  
was in shutdown will return to track. Wake-up time from auto  
shutdown is 1 ms maximum, and the user should ensure that  
1 ms has elapsed before attempting a valid conversion. When  
running the AD7927 with a 20 MHz clock, one dummy 16 SCLK  
transfer should be sufficient to ensure the part is fully powered  
up. During this dummy transfer the contents of the Control  
Register should remain unchanged; therefore the WRITE bit  
should be 0 on the DIN line.

Full Shutdown (PM1 = 1, PM0 = 0)  
In this mode, all internal circuitry on the AD7927 is powered down.  
The part retains information in the Control Register during full  
shutdown. The AD7927 remains in full shutdown until the power  
management bits in the Control Register, PM1 and PM0, are  
changed.  
If a write to the Control Register occurs while the part is in full  
shutdown, with the power management bits changed to PM0 =  
PM1 = 1, Normal Mode, the part will begin to power up on the  
CS rising edge. The track and hold that was in hold while the  
part was in full shutdown will return to track on the 14th SCLK  
falling edge. A full 16 SCLK transfer must occur to ensure the  
Control Register contents are updated; however, the DOUT  
line will not be driven during this wake-up transfer.  
Depending on the SCLK frequency used, this dummy transfer  
may affect the achievable throughput rate of the part, with every  
other data transfer being a valid conversion result. If, for example,  
the maximum SCLK frequency of 20 MHz was used, the auto  
shutdown mode could be used at the full throughput rate of  
200 kSPS without affecting the throughput rate at all. Only a  
portion of the cycle time is taken up by the conversion time and the  
dummy transfer for wake-up.

elapsed before the next CS falling edge; otherwise, invalid data

Figure 15. To Place AD7927 into the Required Operating Mode after Supplies Are Applied  
In this mode the power consumption of the part is greatly reduced  
with the part entering shutdown at the end of each conversion.  
When the Control Register is programmed to move into Auto  
Shutdown, it does so at the end of the conversion. The user can  
move the ADC in and out of the low power state by controlling  
the CS signal.  
800 ns but the cycle time is 5 ms when the sampling rate is at a  
maximum of 200 kSPS. If the AD7927 is placed into shutdown  
for the remainder of the cycle time, then on average far less  
power will be consumed in every cycle compared to leaving the  
device in Normal Mode. Furthermore, Figure 16 shows how as  
the throughput rate is reduced, the part remains in its shutdown  
longer and the average power consumption drops accordingly  
over time.  
Powering Up the AD7927  
When supplies are first applied to the AD7927, the ADC may  
power up in any of the operating modes of the part. To ensure that  
the part is placed into the required operating mode, the user  
should perform a dummy cycle operation as outlined in Figure 15.  
For example, if the AD7927 is operated in a continuous sampling  
mode, with a throughput rate of 200 kSPS and an SCLK of  
20 MHz (AVDD = 5 V), and the device is placed in Auto Shutdown  
Mode i.e., if PM1 = 0 and PM0 = 1, then the power consumption  
is calculated as follows:  
The three dummy conversion operation outlined in Figure 15  
must be performed to place the part into the Auto Shutdown  
Mode. The first two conversions of this dummy cycle operation  
are performed with the DIN line tied high, and for the third con-  
version of the dummy cycle operation, the user should write the  
desired Control Register configuration to the AD7927 in order to  
place the part into the Auto Shutdown mode. On the third CS  
rising edge after the supplies are applied, the Control Register  
will contain the correct information and valid data will result from  
the next conversion.  
The maximum power dissipation during the conversion time is  
13.5 mW (IDD = 2.7 mA max, AVDD = 5 V). If the power-up time  
from Auto Shutdown is 1 ms and the remaining conversion time  
is another cycle, i.e., 800 ns, the AD7927 can be said to dissipate  
13.5 mW for 1.8 ms during each conversion cycle. For the remain-  
der of the conversion cycle, 3.2 ms, the part remains in Shutdown.  
The AD7927 can be said to dissipate 2.5 mW for the remaining  
3.2 ms of the conversion cycle. If the throughput rate is 200 kSPS,  
the cycle time is 5 ms and the average power dissipated during each  
cycle is (1.8/5) ¥ (13.5 mW) + (3.2/5) ¥ (2.5 mW) = 4.8616 mW.  
Therefore, to ensure the part is placed into the correct operating  
mode, when supplies are first applied to the AD7927, the user  
must first issue two serial write operations with the DIN line tied  
high, and on the third conversion cycle the user can then write  
to the Control Register to place to part into any of the operating  
modes. The user should not write to the Shadow Register until  
the fourth conversion cycle after the supplies are applied to the  
ADC, in order to guarantee the Control Register contains the  
correct data.

when using the Auto Shutdown mode with 3 V and 5 V supplies.

If the user wishes to place the part into either the Normal or  
Full Shutdown Mode, the second dummy cycle with DIN tied  
high can be omitted from the three dummy conversion operation  
outlined in Figure 15.

POWER VERSUS THROUGHPUT RATE  
In Auto Shutdown Mode, the average power consumption of the  
ADC may be reduced at any given throughput rate. The power  
saving will depend on the SCLK frequency used, i.e., conversion  
time. In some cases where the conversion time is quite a propor-  
tion of the cycle time, the throughput rate would need to be  
reduced in order to take advantage of the power-down modes.

AD7927  
SERIAL INTERFACE  
Writing of information to the Control Register takes place on the  
first 12 falling edges of SCLK in a data transfer, assuming the MSB,  
i.e., the WRITE bit, has been set to 1. If the Control Register is  
programmed to use the Shadow Register, then the writing of  
information to the Shadow Register will take place on all 16 SCLK  
falling edges in the next serial transfer as shown for example on the  
AD7927 in Figure 18. Two sequence options can be programmed  
in the Shadow Register. If the user does not want to program a  
second sequence, then the eight LSBs should be filled with zeros.  
The Shadow Register will be updated upon the rising edge of  
CS and the track and hold will begin to track the first channel  
selected in the sequence.  
Figure 17 shows the detailed timing diagram for serial interfacing  
to the AD7927. The serial clock provides the conversion clock  
and also controls the transfer of information to and from the  
AD7927 during each conversion.  
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 will  
require 16 SCLK cycles to complete. The track and hold will  
go back into track on the 14th SCLK falling edge as shown in  
Figure 17 at point B, except when the write is to the Shadow  
Register, in which case the track and hold will not return to  
track until the rising edge of CS, i.e., point C in Figure 18. On  
the 16th SCLK falling edge the DOUT line will go back into  
three-state. If the rising edge of CS occurs before 16 SCLKs have  
elapsed, the conversion will be terminated and the DOUT line  
will go back into three-state and the Control Register will not be  
updated; otherwise DOUT returns to three-state on the 16th  
SCLK falling edge, as shown in Figure 17. Sixteen serial clock  
cycles are required to perform the conversion process and to  
access data from the AD7927. For the AD7927, the 12 bits of  
data are preceded by a leading zero and the three channel address  
bits ADD2 to ADD0, identifying which channel the result corre-  
sponds to. CS going low provides the leading zero to be read in by  
the microcontroller or DSP. The three remaining address bits and  
data bits are then clocked out by subsequent SCLK falling edges  
beginning with the first address bit ADD2, thus the first falling  
clock edge on the serial clock has a leading zero provided and  
also clocks out address bit ADD2. The final bit in the data  
transfer is valid on the 16th falling edge, having been clocked  
out on the previous (15th) falling edge.  
The 16-bit word read from the AD7927 will always contain a  
leading zero, three channel address bits that the conversion  
result corresponds to, followed by the 12-bit conversion result.  
Writing Between Conversions  
As outlined in the Operating Modes section, not less than 5 ms  
should be left between consecutive valid conversions. However,  
there is one case where this does not necessarily mean that at least  
5 ms should always be left between CS falling edges. Consider the  
case when writing to the AD7927 to power it up from shutdown  
prior to a valid conversion. The user must write to the part to tell  
it to power up before it can convert successfully. Once the serial  
write to power up has finished, one may wish to perform the con-  
version as soon as possible and not have to wait a further 5 ms  
before bringing CS low for the conversion. In this case, as long  
as there is a minimum of 5 ms between each valid conversion, then  
only the quiet time between the CS rising edge at the end of the  
write to power up and the next CS falling edge for a valid con-  
version needs to be met. Figure 19 illustrates this point. Note

AD7927 to ADSP-21xx  
The ADSP-21xx family of DSPs are interfaced directly to the  
AD7927 without any glue logic required. The VDRIVE pin of  
the AD7927 takes the same supply voltage as that of the  
ADSP-218x. This allows the ADC to operate at a higher voltage  
than the serial interface, i.e., ADSP-218x, if necessary.  
It is critical that an extra write operation as outlined above is  
never issued between valid conversions when the AD7927 is  
executing through a sequence function, as the falling edge of CS  
in the extra write would move the mux on to the next channel in  
the sequence. This means when the next valid conversion takes  
place, a channel result would have been missed.  
The SPORT0 Control Register should be set up as follows:  
TFSW = RFSW = 1, Alternate Framing  
INVRFS = INVTFS = 1, Active Low Frame Signal  
DTYPE = 00, Right Justify Data  
SLEN = 1111, 16-Bit Data-Words  
ISCLK = 1, Internal Serial Clock  
TFSR = RFSR = 1, Frame Every Word

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING  
The serial interface on the AD7927 allows the part to be directly  
connected to a range of many different microprocessors. This  
section explains how to interface the AD7927 with some of the  
more common microcontroller and DSP serial interface protocols.  
ITFS = 1  
AD7927 to TMS320C541  
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 21. The ADSP-218x  
has the TFS and RFS of the SPORT tied together, with TFS set  
as an output and RFS set as an input. The DSP operates in Alter-  
nate 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 equi-  
distant 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 TMS320C541 uses a continuous serial  
clock and frame synchronization signals to synchronize the data  
transfer operations with peripheral devices like the AD7927. The  
CS input allows easy interfacing between the TMS320C541 and  
the AD7927 without any glue logic required. The serial port of  
the TMS320C541 is set up to operate in burst mode with internal  
CLKX0 (TX serial clock on serial port 0) and FSX0 (TX frame  
sync from serial port 0). The serial port control register (SPC)  
must have the following setup: FO = 0, FSM = 1, MCM = 1, and  
TXM = 1. The connection diagram is shown in Figure 20. It  
should be noted that for signal processing applications, it is impera-  
tive that the frame synchronization signal from the TMS320C541  
provides equidistant sampling. The VDRIVE pin of the AD7927  
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.

The Timer register, for instance, is 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 therefore  
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, then the data may be transmitted  
or it may wait until the next clock edge.  
APPLICATION HINTS  
Grounding and Layout  
The AD7927 has very good immunity to noise on the power  
supplies as can be seen by the PSRR vs. Supply Ripple Frequency  
plot, TPC 3. However, care should still be taken with regard to  
grounding and layout.  
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7927 should be  
designed such that the analog and digital sections are separated  
and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the use  
of ground planes that can be separated easily. A minimum etch  
technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best  
shielding. All three AGND pins of the AD7927 should be sunk  
in the AGND plane. Digital and analog ground planes should be  
joined at only one place. If the AD7927 is in a system where  
multiple devices require an AGND to DGND connection, the  
connection should still be made at one point only, a star ground  
point that should be established as close as possible to the AD7927.  
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, then an SCLK of 5 MHz is obtained and eight master  
clock periods will elapse for every one SCLK period. Depending  
on the throughput rate selected, if the Timer Registers are loaded  
with the value, say 803, 100.5 SCLKs will occur between inter-  
rupts and subsequently between transmit instructions. This  
situation will result in non-equidistant sampling as the transmit  
instruction is occurring on a SCLK edge. If the number of  
SCLKs between interrupts is a whole integer figure of N, then  
equidistant sampling will be implemented by the DSP.  
Avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple  
noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be allowed to  
run under the AD7927 to avoid noise coupling. The power supply  
lines to the AD7927 should use as large a trace as possible to  
provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches  
on the power supply line. Fast switching signals, like clocks,  
should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise  
to other sections of the board, and clock signals should never be  
run near the analog inputs. Avoid crossover of digital 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. In this technique,  
the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes  
while signals are placed on the solder side.  
AD7927 to DSP563xx  
The connection diagram in Figure 22 shows how the AD7927  
can be connected to the ESSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) of  
the DSP563xx family of DSPs from Motorola. Each ESSI (two on  
board) is operated in Synchronous mode (SYN bit in CRB = 1)  
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.  
The FSP bit in the CRB should be set to 1 so the frame sync is  
negative. It should be noted that for signal processing applica-  
tions, it is imperative that the frame synchronization signal from  
the DSP563xx provides equidistant sampling.  
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should be  
decoupled with 10 mF tantalum in parallel with 0.1 mF capacitors  
to AGND. To achieve the best from these decoupling components,  
they must be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally  
right up against the device. The 0.1 mF capacitors should have  
low Effective Series Resistance (ESR) and Effective Series Induc-  
tance (ESI), such as the common ceramic types or surface mount  
types, which provide a low impedance path to ground at high  
frequencies to handle transient currents due to internal logic  
switching.  
In the example shown in Figure 22, the serial clock is taken from  
the ESSI so the SCK0 pin must be set as an output, SCKD = 1.  
The VDRIVE pin of the AD7927 takes the same supply voltage as  
that of the DSP563xx. This allows the ADC to operate at a higher  
voltage than the serial interface, i.e., DSP563xx, if necessary.

The recommended layout for the AD7927 is outlined in the  
evaluation board for the AD7927. The evaluation board package  
includes a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, docu-  
mentation, and software for controlling the board from the  
PC via the Eval-Board Controller. The Eval-Board Controller  
can be used in conjunction with the AD7927 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 AD7927.
