ADC08500 High Performance, Low Power 8-Bit, 500 MSPS A/D Converter  
Check for Samples: ADC08500

FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The ADC08500 is a low power, high performance  
CMOS analog-to-digital converter that digitizes  
signals to 8 bits resolution at sampling rates up to  
500 MSPS. Consuming a typical 0.8 Watts at 500  
MSPS from a single 1.9 Volt supply, this device is  
ensured to have no missing codes over the full  
operating temperature range. The unique folding and  
interpolating architecture, the fully differential  
comparator design, the innovative design of the  
internal sample-and-hold amplifier and the self-  
calibration scheme enable a very flat response of all  
dynamic parameters beyond Nyquist, producing a  
high 7.5 ENOB with a 250 MHz input signal and a  
500 MHz sample rate while providing a 10-18 B.E.R.  
Output formatting is offset binary and the LVDS  
digital outputs are compatible with IEEE 1596.3-1996,  
with the exception of an adjustable common mode  
voltage between 0.8V and 1.2V.

(2) To ensure accuracy, it is required that VA and VDR be well bypassed. Each supply pin must be decoupled with separate bypass  
capacitors. Additionally, achieving rated performance requires that the backside exposed pad be well grounded.  
(3) Typical figures are at TA = 25°C, and represent most likely parametric norms. Test limits are specified to TI's AOQL (Average Outgoing  
Quality Level).  
(4) Calculation of Full-Scale Error for this device assumes that the actual reference voltage is exactly its nominal value. Full-Scale Error for  
this device, therefore, is a combination of Full-Scale Error and Reference Voltage Error. See Transfer Characteristic Figure 4. For  
relationship between Gain Error and Full-Scale Error, see Specification Definitions for Gain Error.

(15) Tying VBG to the supply rail will increase the output offset voltage (VOS) by 400 mV (typical), as shown in the VOS specification above.  
Tying VBG to the supply rail will also affect the differential LVDS output voltage (VOD), causing it to increase by 40mV (typical).  
Specification Definitions  
APERTURE (SAMPLING) DELAY is the amount of delay, measured from the sampling edge of the CLK input,  
after which the signal present at the input pin is sampled inside the device.  
APERTURE JITTER (tAJ) is the variation in aperture delay from sample to sample. Aperture jitter shows up as  
input noise.  
Bit Error Rate (B.E.R.) is the probability of error and is defined as the probable number of word errors on the  
ADC output per unit of time divided by the number of words seen in that amount of time. A B.E.R. of 10-18  
corresponds to a statistical error in one word about every four (4) years.  
CLOCK DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time that the clock wave form is at a logic high to the total time of one  
clock period.  
DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1  
LSB. Measured at sample rate = 500 MSPS with a 1MHz input sinewave.  
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise  
and Distortion Ratio, or SINAD. ENOB is defined as (SINAD 1.76) / 6.02 and says that the converter is  
equivalent to a perfect ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits.  
FULL POWER BANDWIDTH (FPBW) is a measure of the frequency at which the reconstructed output  
fundamental drops 3 dB below its low frequency value for a full scale input.  
GAIN ERROR is the deviation from the ideal slope of the transfer function. It can be calculated from Offset and  
Full-Scale Errors:  
Positive Gain Error = Offset Error Positive Full-Scale Error  
Negative Gain Error = (Offset Error Negative Full-Scale Error)  
Gain Error = Negative Full-Scale Error Positive Full-Scale Error = Positive Gain Error + Negative Gain  
Error  
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of worst case deviation of the ADC transfer function from an  
ideal straight line drawn through the ADC transfer function. The deviation of any given code from this straight line  
is measured from the center of that code value step. The best fit method is used.  
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of additional spectral components as a result of two  
sinusoidal frequencies being applied to the ADC input at the same time. It is defined as the ratio of the power in  
the second and third order intermodulation products to the power in one of the original frequencies. IMD is  
usually expressed in dBFS.

LSB (LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the smallest value or weight of all bits. This value is  
VFS / 2n  
where  
VFS is the differential full-scale amplitude VIN as set by the FSR input  
"n" is the ADC resolution in bits, which is 8 for the ADC08500.

LVDS DIFFERENTIAL OUTPUT VOLTAGE (VOD) is the absolute value of the difference between the VD+ & VD-  
outputs; each measured with respect to Ground.  
VD+  
VD-  
VOD  
VD+  
VOS  
VD-  
GND  
VOD = | VD+ - VD- |  
Figure 3.  
LVDS OUTPUT OFFSET VOLTAGE (VOS) is the midpoint between the D+ and D- pins output voltage  
referenced to ground. i.e., [(VD+) +( VD-)]/2.  
MISSING CODES are those output codes that are skipped and will never appear at the ADC outputs. These  
codes cannot be reached with any input value.  
MSB (MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the largest value or weight. Its value is one half of full scale.  
NEGATIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR (NFSE) is a measure of how far the first code transition is from the ideal 1/2  
LSB above a differential -VIN/2. For the ADC08500 the reference voltage is assumed to be ideal, so this error is a  
combination of full-scale error and reference voltage error.  
OFFSET ERROR (VOFF) is a measure of how far the mid-scale point is from the ideal zero voltage differential  
input.  
Offset Error = Actual Input causing average of 8k samples to result in an average code of 127.5.  
OUTPUT DELAY (tOD) is the time delay after the falling edge of DCLK before the data update is present at the  
output pins.  
OVER-RANGE RECOVERY TIME is the time required after the differential input voltages goes from ±1.2V to 0V  
for the converter to recover and make a conversion with its rated accuracy.  
PIPELINE DELAY (LATENCY) is the number of clock cycles between initiation of conversion and when that data  
is presented to the output driver stage. New data is available at every clock cycle, but the data lags the  
conversion by the Pipeline Delay plus the tOD  
.
POSITIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR (PFSE) is a measure of how far the last code transition is from the ideal 1-1/2  
LSB below a differential +VIN/2 . For the ADC08500 the reference voltage is assumed to be ideal, so this error is  
a combination of full-scale error and reference voltage error.  
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION RATIO (PSRR) can be one of two specifications. PSRR1 (DC PSRR) is the ratio  
of the change in full-scale error that results from a power supply voltage change from 1.8V to 2.0V. PSRR2 (AC  
PSRR) is a measure of how well an a.c. signal riding upon the power supply is rejected from the output and is  
measured with a 248 MHz, 50 mVP-P signal riding upon the power supply. It is the ratio of the output amplitude of  
that signal at the output to its amplitude on the power supply pin. PSRR is expressed in dB.  
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO (SNR) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of the input signal at the output  
to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components below one-half the sampling frequency, not  
including harmonics or d.c.

SIGNAL TO NOISE PLUS DISTORTION (S/(N+D) or SINAD) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of  
the input signal at the output to the rms value of all of the other spectral components below half the clock  
frequency, including harmonics but excluding d.c.  
SPURIOUS-FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the difference, expressed in dB, between the rms values of the  
input signal at the output and the peak spurious signal, where a spurious signal is any signal present in the  
output spectrum that is not present at the input, excluding d.c.  
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio expressed in dB, of the rms total of the first nine harmonic  
levels at the output to the level of the fundamental at the output. THD is calculated as  
2

f10

where  
Af1 is the RMS power of the fundamental (output) frequency  
Af2 through Af10 are the RMS power of the first 9 harmonic frequencies in the output spectrum.

– Second Harmonic Distortion (2nd Harm) is the difference, expressed in dB, between the RMS power in the  
input frequency seen at the output and the power in its 2nd harmonic level at the output.  
– Third Harmonic Distortion (3rd Harm) is the difference expressed in dB between the RMS power in the input  
frequency seen at the output and the power in its 3rd harmonic level at the output.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
The ADC08500 is a versatile A/D Converter with an innovative architecture permitting very high speed operation.  
The controls available ease the application of the device to circuit solutions. Optimum performance requires  
adherence to the provisions discussed here and in the Applications Information Section.  
While it is generally poor practice to allow an active pin to float, pins 4 and 14 of the ADC08500 are designed to  
be left floating without jeopardy. In all discussions throughout this data sheet, whenever a function is called by  
allowing a pin to float, connecting that pin to a potential of one half the VA supply voltage will have the same  
effect as allowing it to float.  
OVERVIEW  
The ADC08500 uses a calibrated folding and interpolating architecture that achieves 7.5 effective bits. The use  
of folding amplifiers greatly reduces the number of comparators and power consumption. Interpolation reduces  
the number of front-end amplifiers required, minimizing the load on the input signal and further reducing power  
requirements. In addition to other things, on-chip calibration reduces the INL bow often seen with folding  
architectures. The result is an extremely fast, high performance, low power converter.  
The analog input signal that is within the converter's input voltage range is digitized to eight bits at speeds of 200  
MSPS to 500 MSPS, typical. Differential input voltages below negative full-scale will cause the output word to  
consist of all zeroes. Differential input voltages above positive full-scale will cause the output word to consist of  
all ones. Either of these conditions at the input will cause the OR (Out of Range) output to be activated. This  
single OR output indicates when the output code from one or both of the channels is below negative full scale or  
above positive full scale.  
The converter has a 1:2 demultiplexer that feeds two LVDS output buses. The data on these buses provide an  
output word rate on each bus at half the ADC sampling rate and must be interleaved by the user to provide  
output words at the full conversion rate.  
The output levels may be selected to be normal or reduced. Using reduced levels saves power but could result in  
erroneous data capture of some or all of the bits, especially at higher sample rates and in marginally designed  
systems.  
Self-Calibration  
A self-calibration is performed upon power-up and can also be invoked by the user upon command. Calibration  
trims the 100analog input differential termination resistor and minimizes full-scale error, offset error, DNL and  
INL, resulting in maximizing SNR, THD, SINAD (SNDR) and ENOB. Internal bias currents are also set with the  
calibration process. All of this is true whether the calibration is performed upon power up or is performed upon  
command. Running the self calibration is an important part of this chip's functionality and is required in order to  
obtain adequate performance. In addition to the requirement to be run at power-up, self calibration must be re-  
run whenever the sense of the FSR pin is changed. For best performance, we recommend that self calibration be  
run 20 seconds or more after application of power and whenever the operating temperature changes  
significantly, according to the particular system design requirements. See On-Command Calibration for more  
information. Calibration can not be initiated or run while the device is in the power-down mode. See Power Down  
for information on the interaction between Power Down and Calibration.  
In normal operation, calibration is performed just after application of power and whenever a valid calibration  
command is given, which is holding the CAL pin low for at least tCAL_L clock cycles, then hold it high for at least  
another tCAL_H clock cycles as defined in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. The time taken by the  
calibration procedure is specified as tCALin Converter Electrical Characteristics. Holding the CAL pin high upon  
power up will prevent the calibration process from running until the CAL pin experiences the above-mentioned  
tCAL_L clock cycles followed by tCAL_H clock cycles.  
CalDly (pin 127) is used to select one of two delay times after the application of power before the start of  
calibration. This calibration delay time is depedent on the setting of the CalDly pin and is specified as tCalDly in the  
Converter Electrical Characteristics. These delay values allow the power supply to come up and stabilize before  
calibration takes place. If the PD pin is high upon power-up, the calibration delay counter will be disabled until the  
PD pin is brought low. Therefore, holding the PD pin high during power up will further delay the start of the  
power-up calibration cycle. The best setting of the CalDly pin depends upon the power-on settling time of the  
power supply.

Calibration Operation Notes:  
During the calibration cycle, the OR output may be active as a result of the calibration algorithm. All data on  
the output pins and the OR output are invalid during the calibration cycle.  
During the power-up calibration and during the on-command calibration, all clocks are halted on chip,  
including internal clocks and DCLK, while the input termination resistor is trimmed to a value that is equal to  
REXT / 33. This is to reduce noise during the input resistor calibration portion of the calibration cycle.  
This external resistor is located between pin 32 and ground. REXT must be 3300 ±0.1%. With this value, the  
input termination resistor is trimmed to be 100 . Because REXT is also used to set the proper current for the  
Track and Hold amplifier, for the preamplifiers and for the comparators, other values of REXT should not be  
used.  
Because the DCLK output is halted during calibration, it is recommended that this DCLK output not be used  
as a system clock.  
The CalRun output is high whenever the calibration procedure is running. This is true whether the calibration  
is done at power-up or on-command.  
Acquiring the Input  
Data is acquired at the falling edge of CLK+ (pin 18) and the digital equivalent of that data is available at the  
digital outputs 13 clock cycles later for the D output bus and 14 clock cycles later for the Dd output bus. There is  
an additional internal delay called tOD before the data is available at the outputs. See the Timing DiagramsTiming  
Diagram. The ADC08500 will convert as long as the clock signal is present. The fully differential comparator  
design and the innovative design of the sample-and-hold amplifier, together with self calibration, enables a very  
flat SINAD/ENOB response beyond 500 MHz. The ADC08500 output data signaling is LVDS and the output  
format is offset binary.  
Control Modes  
Much of the user control can be accomplished with several control pins that are provided. Examples include  
initiation of the calibration cycle, power down mode and full scale range setting. However, the ADC08500 also  
provides an Extended Control mode whereby a serial interface is used to access register-based control of  
several advanced features. The Extended Control mode is not intended to be enabled and disabled dynamically.  
Rather, the user is expected to employ either the normal control mode or the Extended Control mode at all times.  
When the device is in the Extended Control mode, pin-based control of several features is replaced with register-  
based control and those pin-based controls are disabled. These pins are OutV (pin 3), OutEdge/DDR (pin 4),  
FSR (pin 14) and CalDly (pin 127). See NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL for details on the Extended Control  
mode.  
The Analog Inputs  
The ADC08500 must be driven with a differential input signal. Operation with a single-ended signal is not  
recommended. It is important that the inputs either be a.c. coupled to the inputs with the VCMO pin grounded, or  
d.c. coupled with the VCMO pin left floating. An input common mode voltage equal to the VCMO output must be  
provided when d.c. coupling is used.  
The input full-scale range is programmable in the normal mode by setting a level on pin 14 (FSR) as defined in  
by the specification VIN in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. The full-scale range setting operates equally  
on both ADCs.  
In the Extended Control mode, programming the Input Full-Scale Voltage Adjust register allows the input full-  
scale range to be adjusted as described in REGISTER DESCRIPTION and THE ANALOG INPUT.  
Clocking  
The ADC08500 must be driven with an a.c. coupled, differential clock signal. THE CLOCK INPUTS describes the  
use of the clock input pins. A differential LVDS output clock is available for use in latching the ADC output data  
into whatever receives that data.  
The ADC08500 offers two options for output clocking. These options include a choice of which DCLK edge the  
output data transitions on and a choice of Single Data Rate (SDR) or Double Data Rate (DDR) outputs.

SNAS373E MAY 2007REVISED APRIL 2013  
The ADC08500 also has the option to use a duty cycle corrected clock receiver as part of the input clock circuit.  
This feature is enabled by default and provides improved ADC clocking. This circuitry allows the ADC to be  
clocked with a signal source having a duty cycle ratio of 20 / 80 % (worst case).  
OutEdge Setting  
To help ease data capture in the SDR mode, the output data may be caused to transition on either the positive or  
the negative edge of the output data clock (DCLK). This is chosen with the OutEdge input (pin 4). A high on the  
OutEdge input causes the output data to transition on the rising edge of DCLK, while grounding this input causes  
the output to transition on the falling edge of DCLK. See Output Edge Synchronization.  
Double Data Rate  
A choice of single data rate (SDR) or double data rate (DDR) output is offered. With single data rate the DCLK  
frequency is the same as the data rate of the two output buses. With double data rate the DCLK frequency is half  
the data rate and data is sent to the outputs on both DCLK edges. DDR clocking is enabled in non-Extended  
Control mode by allowing pin 4 to float.  
The LVDS Outputs  
The data outputs, the Out Of Range (OR) and DCLK, are LVDS. Output current sources provide 3 mA of output  
current to a differential 100 Ohm load when the OutV input (pin 14) is high or 2.2 mA when the OutV input is low.  
For short LVDS lines and low noise systems, satisfactory performance may be realized with the OutV input low,  
which results in lower power consumption. If the LVDS lines are long and/or the system in which the ADC08500  
is used is noisy, it may be necessary to tie the OutV pin high. The LVDS data output have a typical common  
mode voltage of 800 mV when the VBG pin is unconnected and floating. This common mode voltage can be  
increased to 1.2V by tying the VBG pin to VA if a higher common mode is required.  
NOTE  
Tying the VBG pin to VA will also increase the differential LVDS output voltage by up to 40  
mV.  
Power Down  
The ADC08500 is in the active state when the Power Down pin (PD) is low. When the PD pin is high, the device  
is in the power down mode, the output pins are put into a high impedance state and the device power  
consumption is reduced to a minimal level. Upon return to normal operation, the pipeline will contain meaningless  
information.  
If the PD input is brought high while a calibration is running, the device will not go into power down until the  
calibration sequence is complete. However, if power is applied and PD is already high, the device will not begin  
the calibration sequence until the PD input goes low. If a manual calibration is requested while the device is  
powered down, the calibration will not begin at all. That is, the manual calibration input is completely ignored in  
the power down state.  
NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL  
The ADC08500 may be operated in one of two modes. In the simpler "normal" control mode, the user affects  
available configuration and control of the device through several control pins. The "extended control mode"  
provides additional configuration and control options through a serial interface and a set of 3 registers. The two  
control modes are selected with pin 14 (FSR/ECE: Extended Control Enable). The choice of control modes is  
required to be a fixed selection and is not intended to be switched dynamically while the device is operational.  
Table 1 shows how several of the device features are affected by the control mode chosen.

THE SERIAL INTERFACE  
NOTE  
During the initial write using the serial interface, all 3 user registers must be written with  
desired or default values. Once all registers have been written once, other desired settings  
can be loaded.  
The 3-pin serial interface is enabled only when the device is in the Extended Control mode. The pins of this  
interface are Serial Clock (SCLK), Serial Data (SDATA) and Serial Interface Chip Select (SCS). Three write only  
registers are accessible through this serial interface.  
SCS: This signal should be asserted low while accessing a register through the serial interface. Setup and hold  
times with respect to the SCLK must be observed.  
SCLK: Serial data input is accepted at the rising edge of this signal. There is no minimum frequency requirement  
for SCLK.  
SDATA: Each register access requires a specific 32-bit pattern at this input. This pattern consists of a header,  
register address and register value. The data is shifted in MSB first. Setup and hold times with respect to the  
SCLK must be observed. See Figure 7.

Each Register access consists of 32 bits, as shown in Figure 7 of the Timing Diagrams. The fixed header pattern  
is 0000 0000 0001 (eleven zeros followed by a 1). The loading sequence is such that a "0" is loaded first. These  
12 bits form the header. The next 4 bits are the address of the register that is to be written to and the last 16 bits  
are the data written to the addressed register. The addresses of the various registers are indicated in Table 3.  
Refer to REGISTER DESCRIPTION for information on the data to be written to the registers.  
Subsequent register accesses may be performed immediately, starting with the 33rd SCLK. This means that the  
SCS input does not have to be de-asserted and asserted again between register addresses. It is possible,  
although not recommended, to keep the SCS input permanently enabled (at a logic low) when using extended  
control.  
NOTE  
The Serial Interface should not be written to when calibrating the ADC. Doing so will  
impair the performance of the device until it is re-calibrated correctly. Programming the  
serial registers will also reduce dynamic performance of the ADC for the duration of the  
register access time.

Note Regarding Extended Mode Offset Correction  
When using the Input channel Offset Adjust register, the following information should be noted.  
For offset values of +0000 0000 and -0000 0000, the actual offset is not the same. By changing only the sign bit  
in this case, an offset step in the digital output code of about 1/10th of an LSB is experienced. This is shown  
more clearly in the Figure below.  
Figure 32. Extended Mode Offset Behavior  
MULTIPLE ADC SYNCHRONIZATION  
The ADC08500 has the capability to precisely reset its sampling clock input to DCLK output relationship as  
determined by the user-supplied DCLK_RST pulse. This allows multiple ADCs in a system to have their DCLK  
(and data) outputs transition at the same time with respect to the shared CLK input that all the ADCs use for  
sampling.  
The DCLK_RST signal must observe some timing requirements that are shown in Figure 8, Figure 9, and  
Figure 10 of the Timing Diagrams. The DCLK_RST pulse must be of a minimum width and its de-assertion edge  
must observe setup and hold times with respect to the CLK input rising edge. These timing specifications are  
listed as tRH, tRS, and tRPW in the Converter Electrical CharacteristicsConverter Electrical Characteristics.

The DCLK_RST signal can be asserted asynchronous to the input clock. If DCLK_RST is asserted, the DCLK  
output is held in a designated state. The state in which DCLK is held during the reset period is determined by the  
mode of operation (SDR/DDR) and the setting of the Output Edge configuration pin or bit. (Refer to Figure 8,  
Figure 9, and Figure 10 for the DCLK reset conditions). Therefore, depending upon when the DCLK_RST signal  
is asserted, there may be a narrow pulse on the DCLK line during this reset event. When the DCLK_RST signal  
is de-asserted in synchronization with the CLK rising edge, the next CLK falling edge synchronizes the DCLK  
output with those of other ADC08500s in the system. The DCLK output is enabled again after a constant delay  
which is equal to the CLK input to DCLK output delay (tAD). The device always exhibits this delay characteristic in  
normal operation.  
The DCLK_RST pin should NOT be brought high while the calibration process is running (while CalRun is high).  
Doing so could cause a digital glitch in the digital circuitry, resulting in corruption and invalidation of the  
calibration.  
Applications Information  
THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE  
The voltage reference for the ADC08500 is derived from a 1.254V bandgap reference which is made available at  
pin 31, VBG, for user convenience. This output has an output current capability of ±100 μA and should be  
buffered if more current than this is required.  
The internal bandgap-derived reference voltage has a nominal value of VIN, as determined by the FSR pin and  
described in The Analog Inputs.  
There is no provision for the use of an external reference voltage, but the full-scale input voltage can be adjusted  
through a Configuration Register in the Extended Control mode, as explained in NORMAL/EXTENDED  
CONTROL.  
Differential input signals up to the chosen full-scale level will be digitized to 8 bits. Signal excursions beyond the  
full-scale range will be clipped at the output. These large signal excursions will also activate the OR output for  
the time that the signal is out of range. See Out Of Range (OR) Indication.  
One extra feature of the VBG pin is that it can be used to raise the common mode voltage level of the LVDS  
outputs. The output offset voltage (VOS) is typically 800 mV when the VBG pin is used as an output or left  
unconnected. To raise the LVDS offset voltage to a typical value of 1200 mV the VBG pin can be connected  
directly to the supply rails.  
THE ANALOG INPUT  
The analog input is a differential one to which the signal source may be a.c. coupled or d.c. coupled. In the  
normal mode, the full-scale input range is selected using the FSR pin as specified in the Converter Electrical  
Characteristics. In the Extended Control mode, the full-scale input range is selected by programming the Full-  
Scale Voltage Adjust register through the Serial Interface. For best performance when adjusting the input full-  
scale range in the Extended Control, refer to REGISTER DESCRIPTION for guidelines on limiting the amount of  
adjustment.  
Table 7 gives the input to output relationship with the FSR pin high when the normal (non-extended) mode is  
used. With the FSR pin grounded, the millivolt values in Table 7 are reduced to 75% of the values indicated. In  
the Extended Control Mode, these values will be determined by the full scale range and offset settings in the  
Control Registers.

The buffered analog inputs simplify the task of driving these inputs and the RC pole that is generally used at  
sampling ADC inputs is not required. If it is desired to use an amplifier circuit before the ADC, use care in  
choosing an amplifier with adequate noise and distortion performance and adequate gain at the frequencies used  
for the application.  
Note that a precise d.c. common mode voltage must be present at the ADC inputs. This common mode voltage,  
VCMO, is provided on-chip when a.c. input coupling is used and the input signal is a.c. coupled to the ADC.  
When the inputs are a.c. coupled, the VCMO output must be grounded, as shown in Figure 33. This causes the  
on-chip VCMO voltage to be connected to the inputs through on-chip 50k-Ohm resistors.

Figure 33. Differential Input Drive  
When the d.c. coupled mode is used, a common mode voltage must be provided at the differential inputs. This  
common mode voltage should track the VCMO output pin. Note that the VCMO output potential will change with  
temperature. The common mode output of the driving device should track this change.  
Full-scale distortion performance falls off rapidly as the input common mode voltage deviates from VCMO  
This is a direct result of using a very low supply voltage to minimize power. Keep the input common  
voltage within 50 mV of VCMO  
.
.
Performance is as good in the d.c. coupled mode as it is in the a.c. coupled mode, provided the input common  
mode voltage at both analog inputs remain within 50 mV of VCMO  
.
Handling Single-Ended Input Signals  
There is no provision for the ADC08500 to adequately process single-ended input signals. The best way to  
handle single-ended signals is to convert them to differential signals before presenting them to the ADC.  
a.c. Coupled Input  
The easiest way to accomplish single-ended a.c. input to differential a.c. signal is by using an appropriate balun,  
as shown in Figure 34.

Figure 34 is a generic depiction of a single-ended to differential signal conversion using a balun. The circuitry  
specific to the balun will depend upon the type of balun selected and the overall board layout. It is recommended  
that the system designer contact the manufacturer of the balun they have selected to aid in designing the best  
performing single-ended to differential conversion circuit using that particular balun.

When selecting a balun, it is important to understand the input architecture of the ADC. There are specific balun  
parameters of which the system designer should be mindful. A designer should match the impedance of their  
analog source to the ADC08500's on-chip 100differential input termination resistor. The range of this input  
termination resistor is described in the electrical table as the specification RIN.  
Also, the phase and amplitude balance are important. The lowest possible phase and amplitude imbalance is  
desired when selecting a balun. The phase imbalance should be no more than ±2.5° and the amplitude  
imbalance should be limited to less than 1dB at the desired input frequency range. Finally, when selecting a  
balun, the VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio), bandwidth and insertion loss of the balun should also be  
considered. The VSWR aids in determining the overall transmission line termination capability of the balun when  
interfacing to the ADC input. The insertion loss should be considered so that the signal at the balun output is  
within the specified input range of the ADC as described in the Converter Electrical Characteristics as the  
specification VIN.  
d.c. Coupled Input  
When d.c. coupling to the ADC08500 analog inputs is required, single-ended to differential conversion may be  
easily accomplished with the LMH6555. An example of this type of circuit is shown in Figure 35. In such  
applications, the LMH6555 performs the task of single-ended to differential conversion while delivering low  
distortion and noise, as well as output balance, that supports the operation of the ADC08500. Connecting the  
ADC08500 VCMO pin to the VCM_REF pin of the LMH6555, through an appropriate buffer, will ensure that the  
common mode input voltage is as needed for optimum performance of the ADC08500. The LMV321 was chosen  
to buffer VCMO for its low voltage operation and reasonable offset voltage.  
Be sure that the current drawn from the VCMO output does not exceed 100 μA.

In Figure 35, RADJ-and RADJ+ are used to adjust the differential offset that can be measured at the ADC inputs  
VIN+ / VIN-. An unadjusted positive offset with reference to VIN-greater than |15mV| should be reduced with a  
resistor in the RADJ-position. Likewise, an unadjusted negative offset with reference to VIN-greater than |15mV|  
should be reduced with a resistor in the RADJ+ position. Table 8 gives suggested RADJ-and RADJ+ values for

Out Of Range (OR) Indication  
When the conversion result is clipped the Out of Range output is activated such that OR+ goes high and OR-  
goes low. This output is active as long as accurate data on either or both of the buses would be outside the  
range of 00h to FFh.  
Full-Scale Input Range  
As with all A/D Converters, the input range is determined by the value of the ADC's reference voltage. The  
reference voltage of the ADC08500 is derived from an internal band-gap reference. The FSR pin controls the  
effective reference voltage of the ADC08500 such that the differential full-scale input range at the analog inputs  
is a normal amplitude with the FSR pin high, or a reduced amplitude with FSR pin low as defined by the  
specification VIN in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. Best SNR is obtained with FSR high, but better  
distortion and SFDR are obtained with the FSR pin low.  
THE CLOCK INPUTS  
The ADC08500 has differential LVDS clock inputs, CLK+ and CLK-, which must be driven with an a.c. coupled,  
differential clock signal. Although the ADC08500 is tested and its performance is ensured with a differential 500  
MHz clock, it typically will function well with clock frequencies indicated in the Converter Electrical  
Characteristics. The clock inputs are internally terminated and biased. The clock signal must be capacitively  
coupled to the clock pins as indicated in Figure 36.  
Operation up to the sample rates indicated in the Converter Electrical Characteristics is typically possible if the  
maximum ambient temperatures indicated are not exceeded. Operating at higher sample rates than indicated for  
the given ambient temperature may result in reduced device reliability and product lifetime. This is because of the  
higher power consumption and die temperatures at high sample rates. Important also for reliability is proper  
thermal management . See Thermal Management.

Figure 36. Differential (LVDS) Clock Connection  
The differential Clock line pair should have a characteristic impedance of 100and be terminated at the clock  
source in that (100) characteristic impedance. The clock line should be as short and as direct as possible. The  
ADC08500 clock input is internally terminated with an untrimmed 100resistor.  
Insufficient clock levels will result in poor dynamic performance. Excessively high clock levels could cause a  
change in the analog input offset voltage. To avoid these problems, keep the clock level within the range  
specified as VID in the Converter Electrical Characteristics.  
The low and high times of the input clock signal can affect the performance of any A/D Converter. The  
ADC08500 features a duty cycle clock correction circuit which can maintain performance over temperature. The  
ADC will meet its performance specification if the input clock high and low times are maintained within the duty  
cycle range as specified in the Converter Electrical Characteristics.

High speed, high performance ADCs such as the ADC08500 require a very stable clock signal with minimum  
phase noise or jitter. ADC jitter requirements are defined by the ADC resolution (number of bits), maximum ADC  
input frequency and the input signal amplitude relative to the ADC input full scale range. The maximum jitter (the  
sum of the jitter from all sources) allowed to prevent a jitter-induced reduction in SNR is found to be  
tJ(MAX) = (VIN(P-P) / VINFSR) x (1/(2(N+1) x π x fIN))  
where  
tJ(MAX) is the rms total of all jitter sources in seconds  
VIN(P-P) is the peak-to-peak analog input signal  
VINFSR is the full-scale range of the ADC  
"N" is the ADC resolution in bits and fIN is the maximum input frequency, in Hertz, at the ADC analog input. (3)  
Note that the maximum jitter described above is the RSS sum of the jitter from all sources, including that in the  
ADC clock, that added by the system to the ADC clock and input signals and that added by the ADC itself. Since  
the effective jitter added by the ADC is beyond user control, the best the user can do is to keep the sum of the  
externally added clock jitter and the jitter added by the analog circuitry to the analog signal to a minimum.  
Input clock amplitudes above those specified in the Converter Electrical CharacteristicsConverter Electrical  
Characteristics may result in increased input offset voltage. This would cause the converter to produce an output  
code other than the expected 127/128 when both input pins are at the same potential.  
CONTROL PINS  
Six control pins (without the use of the serial interface) provide a wide range of possibilities in the operation of  
the ADC08500 and facilitate its use. These control pins provide Full-Scale Input Range setting, Self Calibration,  
Calibration Delay, Output Edge Synchronization choice, LVDS Output Level choice and a Power Down feature.  
Full-Scale Input Range Setting  
The input full-scale range can be selected with the FSR control input (pin 14) in the normal mode of operation.  
The is specified as VIN in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. In the extended control mode, the input full-  
scale range may be programmed using the Full-Scale Adjust Voltage register. See THE ANALOG INPUT for  
more information.  
Self Calibration  
The ADC08500 self-calibration must be run to achieve specified performance. The calibration procedure is run  
upon power-up and can be run any time on command. The calibration procedure is exactly the same whether  
there is a clock present upon power up or if the clock begins some time after application of power. The CalRun  
output indicator is high while a calibration is in progress.  
It is important that no digital activity take place on any of the digital input lines during the calibration process,  
except that there must be a stable, constant frequency CLK signal present and that SCLK may be active if the  
Enhanced Mode is selected. Specifically, none of the following actions are allowed during the calibration process:  
Changing OUTV  
Changing OutEdge or SDATA sense  
Changing between SDR and DDR  
Changing FSE or ECE  
Changing DCLK_RST  
Changing SCS  
Raising PD high  
Raising CAL high  
Doing any of these actions can cause faulty calibration.  
Power-On Calibration  
Power-on calibration begins after a time delay following the application of power. This time delay is determined  
by the setting of CalDly, as described in Calibration Delay, below.

The calibration process will be not be performed if the CAL pin is high at power up. In this case, the calibration  
cycle will not begin until the on-command calibration conditions are met. The ADC08500 will function with the  
CAL pin held high at power up, but no calibration will be done and performance will be impaired. A manual  
calibration, however, may be performed after powering up with the CAL pin high. See On-Command Calibration.  
The internal power-on calibration circuitry comes up in an unknown logic state. If the clock is not running at  
power up and the power on calibration circuitry is active, it will hold the analog circuitry in power down and the  
power consumption will typically be less than 200 mW. The power consumption will be normal after the clock  
starts.  
On-Command Calibration  
To initiate an on-command calibration, bring the CAL pin high for a minimum of tCAL_H input clock cycles after it  
has been low for a minimum of tCAL_L input clock cycles. Holding the CAL pin high upon power up will prevent  
execution of power-on calibration until the CAL pin is low for a minimum of tCAL_L input clock cycles, then brought  
high for a minimum of another tCAL_H input clock cycles. The calibration cycle will begin tCAL_H input clock cycles  
after the CAL pin is thus brought high. The CalRun signal should be monitored to determine when the calibration  
cycle has completed.  
The minimum tCAL_H and tCAL_L input clock cycle sequences are required to ensure that random noise does not  
cause a calibration to begin when it is not desired. As mentioned in Self-Calibration for best performance, a self  
calibration should be performed 20 seconds or more after power up and repeated when the operating  
temperature changes significantly according to the particular system performance requirements. ENOB drops  
slightly as junction temperature increases and executing a new self calibration cycle will essentially eliminate the  
change.  
During a Power-On calibration cycle, both the ADC and the input termination resistor are calibrated. As dynamic  
performance changes slightly with junction temperature, an On-Command calibration can be executed to bring  
the performance of the ADC in line.  
Calibration Delay  
The CalDly input (pin 127) is used to select one of two delay times after the application of power to the start of  
calibration, as described in Self-Calibration. The calibration delay values allow the power supply to come up and  
stabilize before calibration takes place. With no delay or insufficient delay, calibration would begin before the  
power supply is stabilized at its operating value and result in non-optimal calibration coefficients. If the PD pin is  
high upon power-up, the calibration delay counter will be disabled until the PD pin is brought low. Therefore,  
holding the PD pin high during power up will further delay the start of the power-up calibration cycle. The best  
setting of the CalDly pin depends upon the power-on settling time of the power supply.  
Note that the calibration delay selection is not possible in the Extended Control mode and the short delay time is  
used.  
Output Edge Synchronization  
DCLK signals are available to help latch the converter output data into external circuitry. The output data can be  
synchronized with either edge of these clock signals. That is, the output data transition can be set to occur with  
either the rising edge or the falling edge of the DCLK signal, so that either edge of that clock signal can be used  
to latch the output data into the receiving circuit.  
When OutEdge (pin 4) is high, the output data is synchronized with (changes with) the rising edge of the DCLK+  
(pin 82). When OutEdge is low, the output data is synchronized with the falling edge of DCLK+.  
At the very high speeds of which the ADC08500 is capable, slight differences in the lengths of the clock and data  
lines can mean the difference between successful and erroneous data capture. The OutEdge pin is used to  
capture data on the DCLK edge that best suits the application circuit and layout.  
LVDS Output Level Control  
The output level can be set to one of two levels with OutV (pin3). The strength of the output drivers is greater  
with OutV high. With OutV low there is less power consumption in the output drivers, but the lower output level  
means decreased noise immunity.

For short LVDS lines and low noise systems, satisfactory performance may be realized with the FSR input low. If  
the LVDS lines are long and/or the system in which the ADC08500 is used is noisy, it may be necessary to tie  
the FSR pin high.  
Power Down Feature  
The Power Down pin (PD) suspends device operation and puts the ADC08500 into a minimum power  
consumption state. See Power Down for details on the power down feature.  
The digital data (+/-) output pins are put into a high impedance state when the PD pin is high. Upon return to  
normal operation, the pipeline will contain meaningless information and must be flushed.  
If the PD input is brought high while a calibration is running, the device will not go into power down until the  
calibration sequence is complete. However, if power is applied and PD is already high, the device will not begin  
the calibration sequence until the PD input goes low. If a manual calibration is requested while the device is  
powered down, the calibration will not begin at all. That is, the manual calibration input is completely ignored in  
the power down state.  
THE DIGITAL OUTPUTS  
The ADC08500 demultiplexes the output data of the ADC onto two LVDS output buses. The results of  
successive conversions started on the odd falling edges of the CLK+ pin are available on one of the two LVDS  
buses, while the results of conversions started on the even falling edges of the CLK+ pin are available on the  
other LVDS bus. This means that, the word rate at each LVDS bus is 1/2 the ADC08500 input clock rate and the  
two buses must be multiplexed to obtain the entire 0.5 GSPS conversion result.  
Since the minimum recommended input clock rate for this device is 200 MSPS, the effective rate can be reduced  
to as low as 100 MSPS by using the results available on just one of the the two LVDS buses and a 200 MHz  
input clock, decimating the 200 MSPS data by two.  
There is one LVDS output clock pair (DCLK+/-) available for use to latch the LVDS outputs on all buses. Whether  
the data is sent at the rising or falling edge of DCLK is determined by the sense of the OutEdge pin, as described  
in Output Edge Synchronization.  
DDR (Double Data Rate) clocking can also be used. In this mode a word of data is presented with each edge of  
DCLK, reducing the DCLK frequency to 1/4 the input clock frequency. See TEST CIRCUIT DIAGRAMS for  
details.  
The OutV pin is used to set the LVDS differential output levels. See LVDS Output Level Control.  
The output format is Offset Binary. Accordingly, a full-scale input level with VIN+ positive with respect to VINwill  
produce an output code of all ones, a full-scale input level with VINpositive with respect to VIN+ will produce an  
output code of all zeros and when VIN+ and VINare equal, the output code will vary between codes 127 and  
128.  
POWER CONSIDERATIONS  
A/D converters draw sufficient transient current to corrupt their own power supplies if not adequately bypassed. A  
33 µF capacitor should be placed within an inch (2.5 cm) of the A/D converter power pins. A 0.1 µF capacitor  
should be placed as close as possible to each VA pin, preferably within one-half centimeter. Leadless chip  
capacitors are preferred because they have low lead inductance.  
The VA and VDR supply pins should be isolated from each other to prevent any digital noise from being coupled  
into the analog portions of the ADC. A ferrite choke, such as the JW Miller FB20009-3B, is recommended  
between these supply lines when a common source is used for them.  
The Power Supply  
As is the case with all high speed converters, the ADC08500 should be assumed to have little power supply  
noise rejection. Any power supply used for digital circuitry in a system where a lot of digital power is being  
consumed should not be used to supply power to the ADC08500. The ADC supplies should be the same supply  
used for other analog circuitry, if not a dedicated supply.

Because switching power supplies produce ringing energy at frequencies much higher than their switching rate,  
which can impact the noise performance of high frequency systems, the use of such supplies is not  
recommended in high frequency systems. However, realizing that linear supplies may not be practical, it is  
important that care be exercised in the placement and layout of any switching supplies. Application Note AN-  
1149 (Literature Number SNVA021) can help.  
The ADC08500 is specified to operate with a supply voltage of 1.9V ±0.1V. It is very important to note that, while  
this device will function with slightly higher supply voltages, these higher supply voltages may reduce product  
lifetime.  
No pin should ever have a voltage on it that is in excess of the supply voltage or below ground by more than 150  
mV, not even on a transient basis. This can be a problem upon application of power and power shut-down. Be  
sure that the supplies to circuits driving any of the input pins, analog or digital, do not come up any faster than  
does the voltage at the ADC08500 power pins.  
The Absolute Maximum Ratings should be strictly observed, even during power up and power down. A power  
supply that produces a voltage spike at turn-on and/or turn-off of power can destroy the ADC08500. The circuit of  
Figure 37 will provide supply overshoot protection.  
Many linear regulators will produce output spiking at power-on unless there is a minimum load provided. Active  
devices draw very little current until their supply voltages reach a few hundred millivolts. The result can be a turn-  
on spike that can destroy the ADC08500, unless a minimum load is provided for the supply. The 100resistor at  
the regulator output provides a minimum output current during power-up to ensure there is no turn-on spiking.  
In the circuit of Figure 37, an LM317 linear regulator is satisfactory if its input supply voltage is 4V to 5V . If a  
3.3V supply is used, an LM1086 linear regulator is recommended.

The output drivers should have a supply voltage, VDR, that is within the range specified in the Operating Ratings  
table. This voltage should not exceed the VA supply voltage.  
If the power is applied to the device without a clock signal present, the current drawn by the device might be  
below 200 mA. This is because the ADC08500 gets reset through clocked logic and its initial state is random. If  
the reset logic comes up in the "on" state, it will cause most of the analog circuitry to be powered down, resulting  
in less than 100 mA of current draw. This current is greater than the power down current because not all of the  
ADC is powered down. The device current will be normal after the clock is established.  
Thermal Management  
The ADC08500 is capable of impressive speeds and performance at very low power levels for its speed.  
However, the power consumption is still high enough to require attention to thermal management. For reliability  
reasons, the die temperature should be kept to a maximum of 130°C. That is, TA (ambient temperature) plus  
ADC power consumption times θJA (junction to ambient thermal resistance) should not exceed 130°C. This is not  
a problem if the ambient temperature is kept to a maximum of +85°C as specified in the Operating Ratings  
section.  
Please note that the following are general recommendations for mounting exposed pad devices onto a PCB. This  
should be considered the starting point in PCB and assembly process development. It is recommended that the  
process be developed based upon past experience in package mounting.

The package of the ADC08500 has an exposed pad on its back that provides the primary heat removal path as  
well as excellent electrical grounding to the printed circuit board. The land pattern design for lead attachment to  
the PCB should be the same as for a conventional HLQFP, but the exposed pad must be attached to the board  
to remove the maximum amount of heat from the package, as well as to ensure best product parametric  
performance.  
To maximize the removal of heat from the package, a thermal land pattern must be incorporated on the PC  
board within the footprint of the package. The exposed pad of the device must be soldered down to ensure  
adequate heat conduction out of the package. The land pattern for this exposed pad should be at least as large  
as the 5 x 5 mm of the exposed pad of the package and be located such that the exposed pad of the device is  
entirely over that thermal land pattern. This thermal land pattern should be electrically connected to ground. A  
clearance of at least 0.5 mm should separate this land pattern from the mounting pads for the package pins.

Figure 38. Recommended Package Land Pattern  
Since a large aperture opening may result in poor release, the aperture opening should be subdivided into an  
array of smaller openings, similar to the land pattern of Figure 38.  
To minimize junction temperature, it is recommended that a simple heat sink be built into the PCB. This is done  
by including a copper area of about 2 square inches (6.5 square cm) on the opposite side of the PCB. This  
copper area may be plated or solder coated to prevent corrosion, but should not have a conformal coating, which  
could provide some thermal insulation. Thermal vias should be used to connect these top and bottom copper  
areas. These thermal vias act as "heat pipes" to carry the thermal energy from the device side of the board to the  
opposite side of the board where it can be more effectively dissipated. The use of 9 to 16 thermal vias is  
recommended.  
The thermal vias should be placed on a 1.2 mm grid spacing and have a diameter of 0.30 to 0.33 mm. These  
vias should be barrel plated to avoid solder wicking into the vias during the soldering process as this wicking  
could cause voids in the solder between the package exposed pad and the thermal land on the PCB. Such voids  
could increase the thermal resistance between the device and the thermal land on the board, which would cause  
the device to run hotter.  
If it is desired to monitor die temperature, a temperature sensor may be mounted on the heat sink area of the  
board near the thermal vias. .Allow for a thermal gradient between the temperature sensor and the ADC08500  
die of θJ-PAD times typical power consumption = 2.8 x 1.6 = 4.5°C. Allowing for a 5.5°C (including an extra 1°C)  
temperature drop from the die to the temperature sensor, then, would mean that maintaining a maximum pad  
temperature reading of 124.5°C will ensure that the die temperature does not exceed 130°C, assuming that the  
exposed pad of the ADC08500 is properly soldered down and the thermal vias are adequate. (The inaccuracy of  
the temperature sensor is additional to the above calculation).  
LAYOUT AND GROUNDING  
Proper grounding and routing of all signals are essential to ensure accurate conversion. A single ground plane  
should be used instead of splitting the ground plane into analog and digital areas.

SNAS373E MAY 2007REVISED APRIL 2013  
Since digital switching transients are composed largely of high frequency components, the skin effect tells us that  
total ground plane copper weight will have little effect upon the logic-generated noise. Total surface area is more  
important than is total ground plane volume. Coupling between the typically noisy digital circuitry and the  
sensitive analog circuitry can lead to poor performance that may seem impossible to isolate and remedy. The  
solution is to keep the analog circuitry well separated from the digital circuitry.  
High power digital components should not be located on or near any linear component or power supply trace or  
plane that services analog or mixed signal components as the resulting common return current path could cause  
fluctuation in the analog input “ground” return of the ADC, causing excessive noise in the conversion result.  
Generally, we assume that analog and digital lines should cross each other at 90° to avoid getting digital noise  
into the analog path. In high frequency systems, however, avoid crossing analog and digital lines altogether.  
Clock lines should be isolated from ALL other lines, analog AND digital. The generally accepted 90° crossing  
should be avoided as even a little coupling can cause problems at high frequencies. Best performance at high  
frequencies is obtained with a straight signal path.  
The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces to avoid coupling of spurious signals into the input.  
This is especially important with the low level drive required of the ADC08500. Any external component (e.g., a  
filter capacitor) connected between the converter's input and ground should be connected to a very clean point in  
the analog ground plane. All analog circuitry (input amplifiers, filters, etc.) should be separated from any digital  
components.  
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE  
The ADC08500 is a.c. tested and its dynamic performance is ensured. To meet the published specifications and  
avoid jitter-induced noise, the clock source driving the CLK input must exhibit low rms jitter. The allowable jitter is  
a function of the input frequency and the input signal level, as described in THE CLOCK INPUTS  
It is good practice to keep the ADC clock line as short as possible, to keep it well away from any other signals  
and to treat it as a transmission line. Other signals can introduce jitter into the clock signal. The clock signal can  
also introduce noise into the analog path if not isolated from that path.  
Best dynamic performance is obtained when the exposed pad at the back of the package has a good connection  
to ground. This is because this path from the die to ground is a lower impedance than offered by the package  
pins.  
USING THE SERIAL INTERFACE  
The ADC08500 may be operated in the non-extended control (non-Serial Interface) mode or in the extended  
control mode. Table 9 and Table 10 describe the functions of pins 3, 4, 14 and 127 in the non-extended control  
mode and the extended control mode, respectively.  
Non-Extended Control Mode Operation  
Non-extended control mode operation means that the Serial Interface is not active and all controllable functions  
are controlled with various pin settings. That is, the full-scale range, the power on calibration delay, the output  
voltage and the input coupling (a.c. or d.c.). The non-extended control mode is used by setting pin 14 high or  
low, as opposed to letting it float. Table 9 indicates the pin functions of the ADC08500 in the non-extended  
control mode.

Pin 3 can be either high or low in the non-extended control mode. Pin 14 must not be left floating to select this  
mode. See NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL for more information.  
Pin 4 can be high or low or can be left floating in the non-extended control mode. In the non-extended control  
mode, pin 4 high or low defines the edge at which the output data transitions. See Output Edge Synchronization  
for more information. If this pin is floating, the output clock (DCLK) is a DDR (Double Data Rate) clock (see  
Double Data Rate) and the output edge synchronization is irrelevant since data is clocked out on both DCLK  
edges.

COMMON APPLICATION PITFALLS  
Failure to write all register locations when using extended control mode. When using the serial interface, all  
3 user registers must be written at least once with the default or desired values before calibration and  
subsequent use of the ADC. Once all registers have been written once, other desired settings can be loaded.  
Driving the inputs (analog or digital) beyond the power supply rails. For device reliability, no input should go  
more than 150 mV below the ground pins or 150 mV above the supply pins. Exceeding these limits on even a  
transient basis may not only cause faulty or erratic operation, but may impair device reliability. It is not  
uncommon for high speed digital circuits to exhibit undershoot that goes more than a volt below ground.  
Controlling the impedance of high speed lines and terminating these lines in their characteristic impedance  
should control overshoot.  
Care should be taken not to overdrive the inputs of the ADC08500. Such practice may lead to conversion  
inaccuracies and even to device damage.  
Incorrect analog input common mode voltage in the d.c. coupled mode. As discussed in The Analog Inputs  
and THE ANALOG INPUT, the Input common mode voltage must remain within 50 mV of the VCMO output ,  
which has a variability with temperature that must also be tracked. Distortion performance will be degraded if the  
input common mode voltage is more than 50 mV from VCMO  
.
Using an inadequate amplifier to drive the analog input. Use care when choosing a high frequency amplifier  
to drive the ADC08500 as many high speed amplifiers will have higher distortion than will the ADC08500,  
resulting in overall system performance degradation.  
Driving the VBG pin to change the reference voltage. As mentioned in THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE, the  
reference voltage is intended to be fixed by FSR pin or Full-Scale Voltage Adjust register settings. Over driving  
this pin will not change the full scale value, but can otherwise upset operation.  
Driving the clock input with an excessively high level signal. The ADC clock level should not exceed the  
level described in the Operating Ratings Table or the input offset could change.  
Inadequate clock levels. As described in THE CLOCK INPUTS, insufficient clock levels can result in poor  
performance. Excessive clock levels could result in the introduction of an input offset.  
Using a clock source with excessive jitter, using an excessively long clock signal trace, or having other  
signals coupled to the clock signal trace. This will cause the sampling interval to vary, causing excessive  
output noise and a reduction in SNR performance.  
Failure to provide adequate heat removal. As described in Thermal Management, it is important to provide  
adequate heat removal to ensure device reliability. This can be done either with adequate air flow or the use of a  
simple heat sink built into the board. The backside pad should be grounded for best performance.
