GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD73211 is a 2-channel, 12-bit plus sign successive
approximation ADC designed on the iCMOS (industrial
CMOS) process. iCMOS is a process combining high voltage
silicon with submicron CMOS and complementary bipolar
technologies. It enables the development of a wide range of high
performance analog ICs capable of 33 ꢁ operation in a footprint
that no previous generation of high voltage parts could achieve.
Unlike analog ICs using conventional CMOS processes, iCMOS
components can accept bipolar input signals while providing
increased performance, dramatically reduced power
1. The AD7321 can accept true bipolar analog input signals,
±1ꢀ ꢁ, ±± ꢁ, ±2.± ꢁ, and ꢀ ꢁ to +1ꢀ ꢁ unipolar signals.
2. The two analog inputs can be configured as two single-
ended inputs, one true differential input pair, or one
pseudo differential input.
3. ±ꢀꢀ kSPS serial interface. SPI®-/QSPI™-/DSP-/MICROWIRE™-
compatible interface.
4. Low power, 17 mW, at a maximum throughput rate of
±ꢀꢀ kSPS.
consumption, and reduced package size.
±. Channel sequencer.
The AD7321 can accept true bipolar analog input signals. The
AD7321 has four software-selectable input ranges, ±1ꢀ ꢁ, ±± ꢁ,
±2.± ꢁ, and ꢀ ꢁ to +1ꢀ ꢁ. Each analog input channel can be
independently programmed to one of the four input ranges.
The analog input channels on the AD7321 can be programmed
to be single-ended, true differential, or pseudo differential.

The ADC contains a 2.± ꢁ internal reference. The AD7321 also
allows for external reference operation. If a 3 ꢁ reference is
applied to the REFIN/OUT pin, the AD7321 can accept a true
bipolar ±12 ꢁ analog input. Minimum ±12 ꢁ ꢁDD and ꢁSS
supplies are required for the ±12 ꢁ input range. The ADC has a
high speed serial interface that can operate at throughput rates
up to ±ꢀꢀ kSPS.

1 If the analog inputs are driven from alternative VDD and VSS supply circuitry,
Schottky diodes should be placed in series with the AD7321’s VDD and VSS
supplies.
2 Transient currents of up to 100 mA do not cause SCR latch-up.
ESD 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 this product 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.

the AD7321 and frames the serial data transfer.
2
DIN
Data In. Data to be written to the on-chip registers is provided on this input and is clocked into the
register on the falling edge of SCLK (see the Registers section).
3, 13
DGND
Digital Ground. Ground reference point for all digital circuitry on the AD7321. The DGND and AGND
voltages ideally should be at the same potential and must not be more than 0.3 V apart, even on a
transient basis.
4
5
AGND
Analog Ground. Ground reference point for all analog circuitry on the AD7321. All analog input signals
and any external reference signal should be referred to this AGND voltage. 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.
REFIN/OUT Reference Input/Reference Output. The on-chip reference is available on this pin for use external to the
AD7321. The nominal internal reference voltage is 2.5 V, which appears at this pin. A 680 nF capacitor
should be placed on the reference pin (see the Reference section). Alternatively, the internal reference
can be disabled and an external reference applied to this input. On power-up, the external reference
mode is the default condition.

VSS
Negative Power Supply Voltage. This is the negative supply voltage for the analog input section.

VIN0 to VIN1 Analog Input 0 to Analog Input 1. The analog inputs are multiplexed into the on-chip track-and-hold.
The analog input channel for conversion is selected by programming the Channel Address Bit ADD0 in
the control register. The inputs can be configured as two single-ended inputs, one true differential
input pair, or one pseudo differential input. The configuration of the analog inputs is selected by
programming the mode bits, Bit Mode 1 and Bit Mode 0, in the control register. The input range on
each input channel is controlled by programming the range register. Input ranges of 10 V, 5 V, 2.5 V,
and 0 V to +10 V can be selected on each analog input channel when a +2.5 V reference voltage is used
(see the Registers section).

VDD
VCC
Positive Power Supply Voltage. This is the positive supply voltage for the analog input section.
Analog Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. This is the supply voltage for the ADC core on the AD7321.
This supply should be decoupled to AGND.

VDRIVE
Logic Power Supply Input. The voltage supplied at this pin determines at what voltage the interface
operates. This pin should be decoupled to DGND. The voltage at this pin may be different to that at VCC
but it should not exceed VCC by more than 0.3 V.
,
DOUT
Serial Data Output. The conversion output data is supplied to this pin as a serial data stream. The bits
are clocked out on the falling edge of the SCLK input, and 16 SCLKs are required to access the data. The
data stream consists of two ZERO bits, a channel identification bit, the sign bit, and 12 bits of
conversion data. The data is provided MSB first (see the Serial Interface section).
14
SCLK
Serial Clock, Logic Input. A serial clock input provides the SCLK used for accessing the data from the
AD7321. This clock is also used as the clock source for the conversion process.

TERMINOLOGY
Differential Nonlinearity
Negative Full-Scale Error
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB
change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
This applies when using twos complement output coding and
any of the bipolar analog input ranges. This is the deviation of
the first code transition (1ꢀ ... ꢀꢀꢀ) to (1ꢀ ... ꢀꢀ1) from the ideal
(that is, −4 × ꢁREF + 1 LSB, −2 × ꢁREF + 1 LSB, −ꢁREF + 1 LSB)
after adjusting for the bipolar zero code error.
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).
Negative Full-Scale Error Match
This is the difference in negative full-scale error between any
two input channels.
Offset Code Error
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
This applies to straight binary output coding. It is the deviation
of the first code transition (ꢀꢀ ... ꢀꢀꢀ) to (ꢀꢀ ... ꢀꢀ1) from the
ideal, that is, AGND + 1 LSB.
The track-and-hold amplifier returns into track mode after the
14th SCLK rising edge. Track-and-hold acquisition time is the
time required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to
reach its final value, within ±ꢂ LSB, after the end of a
conversion. For the ±2.± ꢁ range, the specified acquisition time
is the time required for the track-and-hold amplifier to settle to
within ±1 LSB.
Offset Error Match
This is the difference in offset error between any two input
channels.
Gain Error
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) Ratio
This applies to straight binary output coding. It is the deviation
of the last code transition (111 ... 11ꢀ) to (111 ... 111) from the
ideal (that is, 4 × ꢁREF − 1 LSB, 2 × ꢁREF − 1 LSB, ꢁREF −1 LSB)
after adjusting for the offset 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 non-fundamental signals
up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio
is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the digi-
tization process. The more levels, the smaller the quantization
noise. Theoretically, the signal to (noise + distortion) ratio for
an ideal N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by
Gain Error Match
This is the difference in gain error between any two input
channels.
Bipolar Zero Code Error
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.ꢀ2 N + 1.76) dB
This applies when using twos complement output coding and a
bipolar analog input. It is the deviation of the midscale
transition (all 1s to all ꢀs) from the ideal input voltage, that is,
AGND − 1 LSB.
For a 13-bit converter, this is 8ꢀ.ꢀ2 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of
harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7321 it is defined as
Bipolar Zero Code Error Match
This refers to the difference in bipolar zero code error between
any two input channels.

V1
Positive Full-Scale Error
where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental, and V2, V3,
V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the
sixth harmonics.
This applies when using twos complement output coding and
any of the bipolar analog input ranges. It is the deviation of the
last code transition (ꢀ11 ... 11ꢀ) to (ꢀ11 ... 111) from the ideal
(4 × ꢁREF − 1 LSB, 2 × ꢁREF − 1 LSB, ꢁREF − 1 LSB) after
adjusting for the bipolar zero code error.
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, excluding dc) to the rms value of the
fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for
ADCs where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, the
largest harmonic could be a noise peak.
Positive Full-Scale Error Match
This is the difference in positive full-scale error between any
two input channels.
Rev. 0 | Page 14 of 36
AD7321
terms are usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies.
As a result, the second- and third-order terms are specified
separately. The calculation of the intermodulation distortion is
per the THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms sum
of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of
the sum of the fundamentals expressed in decibels.
Channel-to-Channel Isolation
Channel-to-channel isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk
between any two channels. It is measured by applying a full-scale,
1ꢀꢀ kHz sine wave signal to all unselected input channels and
determining the degree to which the signal attenuates in the
selected channel with a ±ꢀ kHz signal. Figure 14 shows the worst-
case across all eight channels for the AD7321. The analog input
range is programmed to be the same on all channels.
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)
ꢁariations in power supply affect the full-scale transition but
not the linearity of the converter. Power supply rejection is the
maximum change in the full-scale transition point due to a
change in power supply voltage from the nominal value (see the
Typical Performance Characteristics section).
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion
products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where
m, n = ꢀ, 1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms
are those for which neither m nor n are equal to ꢀ. For example,
the second-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), whereas
the third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb),
and (fa − 2fb).
CMRR (Common-Mode Rejection Ratio)
CMRR is defined as the ratio of the power in the ADC output at
full-scale frequency, f, to the power of a 1ꢀꢀ mꢁ sine wave
applied to the common-mode voltage of the ꢁIN+ and ꢁIN−
frequency, fS, as
The AD7321 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, whereas the third-order
CMRR (dB) = 1ꢀ log (Pf/PfS)
where Pf is the power at frequency f in the ADC output, and PfS
is the power at frequency fS in the ADC output (see Figure 17).

AD7321
THEORY OF OPERATION
The analog inputs can be configured as two single-ended
inputs, one true differential input pair, or one pseudo
differential input. Selection can be made by programming the
mode bits, Mode ꢀ and Mode 1, in the control register.
CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7321 is a fast, 2-channel, 12-bit plus sign, bipolar input,
serial A/D converter. The AD7321 can accept bipolar input
ranges that include ±1ꢀ ꢁ, ±± ꢁ, and ±2.± ꢁ; it can also accept a
ꢀ ꢁ to +1ꢀ ꢁ unipolar input range. A different analog input
range can be programmed on each analog input channel via the
on-chip registers. The AD7321 has a high speed serial interface
that can operate at throughput rates up to ±ꢀꢀ kSPS.
The serial clock input accesses data from the part and provides
the clock source for the successive approximation ADC. The
AD7321 has an on-chip 2.± ꢁ reference. However, the AD7321
can also work with an external reference. On power-up, the
external reference operation is the default option. If the internal
reference is the preferred option, the user must write to the
reference bit in the control register to select the internal
reference operation.
The AD7321 requires ꢁDD and ꢁSS dual supplies for the high
voltage analog input structures. These supplies must be equal to
or greater than the largest analog input range selected. See Table 6
for the requirements of these supplies for each analog input range.
The AD7321 requires a low voltage 2.7 ꢁ to ±.2± ꢁ ꢁCC supply
to power the ADC core.
The AD7321 also features power-down options to allow power
savings between conversions. The power-down modes are
selected by programming the on-chip control register, as
described in the Modes of Operation section.

The AD7321 is a successive approximation analog-to-digital
converter built around two capacitive DACs. Figure 23 and
Figure 24 show simplified schematics of the ADC in single-
ended mode during the acquisition and conversion phases,
respectively. Figure 2± and Figure 26 show simplified
schematics of the ADC in differential mode during acquisition
and conversion phases, respectively. The ADC is composed of
control logic, a SAR, and capacitive DACs. In Figure 23 (the
acquisition phase), SW2 is closed and SW1 is in Position A, the
comparator is held in a balanced condition, and the sampling
capacitor array acquires the signal on the input.

It may be necessary to decrease the throughput rate when the
AD7321 is configured with the minimum ꢁDD and ꢁSS supplies
in order to meet the performance specifications (see the Typical

The analog inputs of the AD7321 can be configured as single-
ended, true differential, or pseudo differential via the control
register mode bits (see Table 9). The AD7321 can accept true
bipolar input signals. On power-up, the analog inputs operate as
two single-ended analog input channels. If true differential or
pseudo differential is required, a write to the control register is
necessary after power-up to change this configuration.
Figure 26. ADC Differential Configuration During Conversion Phase
Output Coding
The AD7321 default output coding is set to twos complement.
The output coding is controlled by the coding bit in the control
register. To change the output coding to straight binary coding,
the coding bit in the control register must be set. When
operating in sequence mode, the output coding for each
channel in the sequence is the value written to the coding bit
during the last write to the control register.
Figure 29 shows the equivalent analog input circuit of the
AD7321 in single-ended mode. Figure 3ꢀ shows the equivalent
analog input structure in differential mode. The two diodes
provide ESD protection for the analog inputs.

Unlike other bipolar ADCs, the AD7321 does not have a
resistive analog input structure. On the AD7321, the bipolar
analog signal is sampled directly onto the sampling capacitor.
This gives the AD7321 high analog input impedance. An
approximation for the analog input impedance can be
calculated from the following formula:

falling edge. The time required to
acquire an input signal depends on how quickly the sampling
capacitor is charged. With ꢀ source impedance, 3ꢀ± ns is
sufficient to acquire the signal to the 13-bit level. The
acquisition time required is calculated using the following
formula:
Z = 1/(fS × CS)

ACQ = 1ꢀ × ((RSOURCE + R) C)
where fS is the sampling frequency, and CS is the sampling
capacitor value.
where C is the sampling capacitance and R is the resistance seen
by the track-and-hold amplifier looking back on the input. For
the AD7321, the value of R includes the on resistance of the
input multiplexer and is typically 3ꢀꢀ Ω. RSOURCE should include
any extra source impedance on the analog input.
CS depends on the analog input range chosen (see the
Specifications section). When operating at ±ꢀꢀ kSPS, the analog
input impedance is typically 14± kꢃ for the ±1ꢀ ꢁ range. As the
sampling frequency is reduced, the analog input impedance
further increases. As the analog input impedance increases, the
current required to drive the analog input therefore decreases.

The ꢁCC pin can be connected to either a 3 ꢁ supply voltage or a
± ꢁ supply voltage. The ꢁDD and ꢁSS are the dual supplies for the
high voltage analog input structures. The voltage on these pins
must be equal to or greater than the highest analog input range
selected on the analog input channels (see Table 6). The ꢁDRIꢁE
pin is connected to the supply voltage of the microprocessor.
The voltage applied to the ꢁDRIꢁE input controls the voltage of
the serial interface. ꢁDRIꢁE can be set to 3 ꢁ or ± ꢁ.
The AD7321 can have one true differential analog input pair.
Differential signals have some benefits over single-ended
signals, including better noise immunity based on the device’s
common-mode rejection and improvements in distortion
performance. Figure 34 defines the configuration of the true

and is therefore the voltage on which the two input signals are
centered.
The AD7321 has a total of two analog inputs when operating
the AD7321 in single-ended mode. Each analog input can be
independently programmed to one of the four analog input
ranges. In applications where the signal source is high
impedance, it is recommended to buffer the signal before
applying it to the ADC analog inputs. Figure 33 shows the
configuration of the AD7321 in single-ended mode.
This voltage is set up externally, and its range varies with
reference voltage. As the reference voltage increases, the
common-mode range decreases. When driving the differential
inputs with an amplifier, the actual common-mode range is
determined by the amplifier’s output swing. If the differential
inputs are not driven from an amplifier, the common-mode
range is determined by the supply voltage on the ꢁDD supply pin
and the ꢁSS supply pin.
When a conversion takes place, the common mode is rejected,
resulting in a noise-free signal of amplitude −2 × (4 × ꢁREF) to
+2 × (4 × ꢁREF) corresponding to Digital Codes −4ꢀ96 to +4ꢀ9±.

applied to this input provides an offset for the ꢁIN+ input from

Differential mode with either an ac input or a dc input provides

DRIVER AMPLIFIER CHOICE
In applications where the harmonic distortion and signal-to-
noise ratio are critical specifications, the analog input of the
AD7321 should be driven from a low impedance source. Large

When no amplifier is used to drive the analog input, the source
impedance should be limited to low values. The maximum
source impedance depends on the amount of THD that can be
tolerated in the application. The THD increases as the source
impedance increases and performance degrades. Figure 21 and
Figure 22 show graphs of the THD vs. the analog input
frequency for various source impedances. Depending on the
input range and analog input configuration selected, the
AD7321 can handle source impedances of up to ±.± kΩ before
the THD starts to degrade.

REGISTERS
The AD7321 has two programmable registers, the control register and the range register. These registers are write-only registers.
ADDRESSING REGISTERS
A serial transfer on the AD7321 consists of 16 SCLK cycles. The three MSBs on the DIN line during the 16 SCLK transfer are decoded to
determine which register is addressed. The three MSBs consist of the write bit, a ZERO bit and the register select bit. The register select
bit is used to determine which of the two on-board registers is selected. The write bit determines if the data on the DIN line following the
register select bit loads into the addressed register. If the write bit is 1, the bits load into the register addressed by the register select bit. If
the write bit is ꢀ, the data on the DIN line does not load into any register.

conversion. Data should be loaded into the control register after the range register has been initialized. The bit functions of the control

When operating in sequence mode, the output coding for each channel is the value written to the coding

Ref
The reference bit is used to enable or disable the internal reference. If Ref = 0, the external reference is
enabled and used for the next conversion, and the internal reference is disabled. If Ref = 1, the internal

AD7321
RANGE REGISTER
The range register is used to select one analog input range per analog input channel and to set the ranges for Channel ꢀ and Channel 1. It
is a 6-bit, write-only register with two dedicated range bits for each of the analog input channels, Channel ꢀ and Channel 1. There are four
analog input ranges, ±1ꢀ ꢁ, ±± ꢁ, ±2.± ꢁ, and ꢀ ꢁ to +1ꢀ ꢁ. A write to the range register is selected by setting the write bit to 1, the ZERO
bit to ꢀ, and the register select bit to 1. After the initial write to the range register occurs, each time an analog input is selected, the
AD7321 automatically configures the analog input to the appropriate range, as indicated by the range register. The ±1ꢀ ꢁ input range is
selected by default on each analog input channel (see Table 13).

AD7321
SEQUENCER OPERATION
The AD7321 can be configured to convert a sequence of
consecutive channels (see Figure 44). This sequence begins by
converting on Channel ꢀ and ends with a final channel as selected
by Bit ADDꢀ in the control register. In this configuration, there is
no need for a write to the sequence register. To operate the AD7321
in this mode, set Seq1 to 1 and Seq2 to ꢀ, and then select the final
channel in the sequence by programming Bit ADDꢀ in the control
register.
Once the control register is configured to operate the AD7321
in this mode, the DIN line can be held low, or the write bit can
be set to ꢀ. To return to traditional multichannel operation, a
write to the control register to set Seq1 to ꢀ and Seq2 to ꢀ is
necessary.
When Seq1 and Seq2 are both set to ꢀ, or when both are set to
1, the AD7321 is configured to operate in traditional multi-
channel mode, where a write to Channel Address Bit ADDꢀ in
the control register selects the next channel for conversion.

conversion result from the first initial conversion is invalid. The
reference buffer requires ±ꢀꢀ ꢄs to power up and charge the
68ꢀ nF decoupling capacitor during the power-up time.
REFERENCE
The AD7321 can operate with either the internal 2.± ꢁ on-chip
reference or an externally applied reference. The internal
reference is selected by setting the Ref bit in the control register
to 1. On power-up, the Ref bit is ꢀ, which selects the external
reference for the AD7321 conversion. Suitable reference sources
for the AD7321 include AD78ꢀ, AD1±82, ADR431, REF193,
and ADR391.
The AD7321 is specified for a 2.± ꢁ to 3 ꢁ reference range.
When a 3 ꢁ reference is selected, the ranges are ±12 ꢁ, ±6 ꢁ,
±3 ꢁ, and ꢀ ꢁ to +12 ꢁ. For these ranges, the ꢁDD and ꢁSS supply
must be equal to or greater than the maximum analog input
range selected (see Table 6).
The internal reference circuitry consists of a 2.± ꢁ band gap
reference and a reference buffer. When operating the AD7321
in internal reference mode, the 2.± ꢁ internal reference is available
at the REFIN/OUT pin, which should be decoupled to AGND
using a 68ꢀ nF capacitor. It is recommended that the internal
reference be buffered before applying it elsewhere in the system.
The internal reference is capable of sourcing up to 9ꢀ μA.
VDRIVE
The AD7321 has a ꢁDRIꢁE feature to control the voltage at which
the serial interface operates. ꢁDRIꢁE allows the ADC to easily
interface to both 3 ꢁ and ± ꢁ processors. For example, if the
AD7321 is operated with a ꢁCC of ± ꢁ, the ꢁDRIꢁE pin can be
powered from a 3 ꢁ supply. This allows the AD7321 to accept
large bipolar input signals with low voltage digital processing.
On power-up, if the internal reference operation is required for
the ADC conversion, a write to the control register is necessary
to set the Ref bit to 1. During the control register write, the

MODES OF OPERATION
The AD7321 has several modes of operation that are designed
to provide flexible power management options. These options
can be chosen to optimize the power dissipation/throughput
rate ratio for different application requirements. The mode of
operation of the AD7321 is controlled by the power management
bits, Bit PM1 and Bit PMꢀ, in the control register as shown in
Table 11. The default mode is normal mode, where all internal
circuitry is fully powered up.
The AD7321 remains fully powered up at the end of the
conversion if both PM1 and PMꢀ contain ꢀ in the control
register.
To complete the conversion and access the conversion result,
16 serial clock cycles are required. At the end of the conversion,
CS
can idle either high or low until the next conversion.
Once the data transfer is complete, another conversion can be
initiated after the quiet time, tQUIET, has elapsed.
NORMAL MODE
(PM1 = PM0 = 0)
FULL SHUTDOWN MODE
(PM1 = PM0 = 1)
This mode is intended for the fastest throughput rate performance
with the AD7321 being fully powered up at all times. Figure 4±
shows the general operation of the AD7321 in normal mode.
In this mode, all internal circuitry on the AD7321 is powered
down. The part retains information in the registers during full
shutdown. The AD7321 remains in full shutdown mode until
the power management bits, Bit PM1 and Bit PMꢀ, in the
control register are changed.
CS
The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of , and the
track-and-hold section enters hold mode as described in the
Serial Interface section. Data on the DIN line during the
16 SCLK transfer is loaded into one of the on-chip registers if
the write bit is set. The register is selected by programming the
register select bits (see Table 8).
A write to the control register with PM1 = 1 and PMꢀ = 1 places
the part into full shutdown mode. The AD7321 enters full shut-
down mode on the 1±th SCLK rising edge once the control register
is updated.
CS
If a write to the control register occurs while the part is in full
shutdown mode with the power management bits, Bit PM1 and
Bit PMꢀ, set to ꢀ (normal mode), the part begins to power up
on the 1±th SCLK rising edge once the control register is
updated. Figure 46 shows how the AD7321 is configured to exit
full shutdown mode. To ensure the AD7321 is fully powered up,

the on-chip reference is enabled. This mode is similar to auto-
shutdown but allows the AD7321 to power up much faster,
which allows faster throughput rates.

The power consumption of the AD7321 varies with throughput
rate. The static power consumed by the AD7321 is very low, and
significant power savings can be achieved as the throughput
rate is reduced. Figure 48 and Figure 49 shows the power vs.
throughput rate for the AD7321 at a ꢁCC of 3 ꢁ and ± ꢁ,
respectively. Both plots clearly show that the average power
consumed by the AD7321 is greatly reduced as the sample
frequency is reduced. This is true whether a fixed SCLK value is
used or if it is scaled with the sampling frequency. Figure 48 and
Figure 49 show the power consumption when operating in
normal mode for a variable SCLK that scales with the sampling
frequency.

AD7321
SERIAL INTERFACE
Figure ±ꢀ shows the timing diagram for the serial interface of
the AD7321. The serial clock applied to the SCLK pin provides
the conversion clock and controls the transfer of information to
and from the AD7321 during a conversion.
Data is clocked into the AD7321 on the SCLK falling edge. The
three MSBs on the DIN line are decoded to select which register
is being addressed. The control register is a 12-bit register. If the
control register is addressed by the three MSBs, the data on the
DIN line is loaded into the control on the 1±th SCLK falling
edge. If the range register is addressed, the data on the DIN line is
loaded into the addressed register on the 11th SCLK falling edge.
CS
The

CS
process. The falling edge of
puts the track-and-hold into
hold mode and takes the bus out of three-state. Then the analog
input signal is sampled. Once the conversion is initiated, it
requires 16 SCLK cycles to complete.
Conversion data is clocked out of the AD7321 on each SCLK
falling edge. Data on the DOUT line consists of two leading
ZEROs, a channel identifier bit, a sign bit, and a 12-bit conversion
result. The channel identifier bit is used to indicate which channel
corresponds to the conversion result. The first ZERO bit is clocked
The track-and-hold goes back into track mode on the 14th SCLK

AD7321
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The serial interface on the AD7321 allows the part to be directly
connected to a range of different microprocessors. This section
explains how to interface the AD7321 with some common
microcontroller and DSP serial interface protocols.
The frequency of the serial clock is set in the SCLKDIꢁ register.
When the instruction to transmit with TFS is given (AXꢀ = TXꢀ),
the state of the serial clock is checked. The DSP waits until the
SCLK has gone high, low, and high again before starting the
transmission. If the timer and SCLK are chosen so that the
instruction to transmit occurs on or near the rising edge of SCLK,
data can be transmitted immediately or at the next clock edge.
AD7321 TO ADSP-21xx
The ADSP-21xx family of DSPs interface directly to the AD7321
without requiring glue logic. The ꢁDRIꢁE pin of the AD7321 takes
the same supply voltage as that of the ADSP-21xx. This allows the
ADC to operate at a higher supply voltage than its serial interface.
The SPORTꢀ on the ADSP-21xx should be configured as shown
in Table 14.
For example, the ADSP-2111 has a master clock frequency of
16 MHz. If the SCLKDIꢁ register is loaded with the value 3, an
SCLK of 2 MHz is obtained, and eight master clock periods elapse
for every one SCLK period. If the timer registers are loaded with
the value 8ꢀ3, 1ꢀꢀ.± SCLKs occur between interrupts and, sub-
sequently, between transmit instructions. This situation leads to
nonequidistant sampling because the transmit instruction occurs
on an SCLK edge. If the number of SCLKs between interrupts is
an integer of N, equidistant sampling is implemented by the DSP.

AD7321
APPLICATION HINTS
LAYOUT AND GROUNDING
To avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, com-
ponents, such as clocks, with fast switching signals should be
shielded with digital ground and never run near the analog inputs.
Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. To reduce the effects
of feedthrough within the board, traces should be run at right
angles to each other. A microstrip technique is the best method,
but its use may not be possible with a double-sided board. In
this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated
to ground planes, and signals are placed on the other side.
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7321 should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are confined to
certain areas of the board. This design facilitates the use of
ground planes that can easily be separated.
To provide optimum shielding for ground planes, a minimum
etch technique is generally best. All AGND pins on the AD7321
should be connected to the AGND plane. Digital and analog
ground pins should be joined in only one place. If the AD7321
is in a system where multiple devices require an AGND and
DGND connection, the connection should still be made at only
one point. A star point should be established as close as possible
to the ground pins on the AD7321.
Good decoupling is also important. All analog supplies should
be decoupled with 1ꢀ ꢄF tantalum capacitors in parallel with
ꢀ.1 ꢄF capacitors to AGND. To achieve the best results from
these decoupling components, they must be placed as close as
possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. The
ꢀ.1 ꢄF capacitors should have a low effective series resistance
(ESR) and low effective series inductance (ESI), such as is
typical of common ceramic and surface mount types of
capacitors. These low ESR, low ESI capacitors provide a low
impedance path to ground at high frequencies to handle
transient currents due to internal logic switching.
Good connections should be made to the power and ground
planes. This can be done with a single via or multiple vias for
each supply and ground pin.
Avoid running digital lines under the AD7321 device because
this couples noise onto the die. However, the analog ground
plane should be allowed to run under the AD7321 to avoid
noise coupling. The power supply lines to the AD7321 device
should use as large a trace as possible to provide low impedance
paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line.
