FEATURES  
are commonly required in portable, low-power  
medical electrocardiogram (ECG), sports, and fitness  
applications.  
23  
Two Low-Noise PGAs and  
Two High-Resolution ADCs (ADS1192)  
Low Power: 335 μW/channel  
With its high levels of integration and exceptional  
performance, the ADS1191/2 family enables the  
creation of scalable medical instrumentation systems  
at significantly reduced size, power, and overall cost.  
Input-Referred Noise: 24 μVPP  
(150-Hz BW, G = 6)  
Input Bias Current: 1 nA  
Data Rate: 125 SPS to 8 kSPS  
CMRR: 95 dB  
The ADS1191/2 have a flexible input multiplexer per  
channel that can be independently connected to the  
internally-generated signals for test, temperature, and  
lead-off detection. Additionally, any configuration of  
input channels can be selected for derivation of the  
right leg drive (RLD) output signal. The ADS1191/2  
operate at data rates up to 8 kSPS. Lead-off  
detection can be implemented internal to the device,  
using the device internal excitation current  
sink/source.  
Programmable Gain: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, or 12  
Supplies: Unipolar or Bipolar

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more  
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

PARAMETER MEASUREMENT INFORMATION  
NOISE MEASUREMENTS  
The ADS1191/2 noise performance can be optimized by adjusting the data rate and PGA setting. As the  
averaging is increased by reducing the data rate, the noise drops correspondingly. Increasing the PGA value  
reduces the input-referred noise, which is particularly useful when measuring low-level biopotential signals.  
Table 1 and Table 2 summarize the noise performance of the ADS1191/2. The data are representative of typical  
noise performance at TA = +25°C. The data shown are the result of averaging the readings from multiple devices  
and are measured with the inputs shorted together.  
Table 1 and Table 2 show measurements taken with an internal reference. The data are also representative of  
the ADS1191/2 noise performance when using a low-noise external reference such as the REF5025.

OVERVIEW  
The ADS1191/2 are low-power, multichannel, simultaneously-sampling, 16-bit delta-sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital  
converters (ADCs) with integrated programmable gain amplifiers (PGAs). These devices integrate various  
ECG-specific functions that make them well-suited for scalable electrocardiogram (ECG), sports, and fitness  
applications. The devices can also be used in high-performance, multichannel data acquisition systems by  
powering down the ECG-specific circuitry.  
The ADS1191/2 have a highly programmable multiplexer that allows for temperature, supply, input short, and  
RLD measurements. Additionally, the multiplexer allows any of the input electrodes to be programmed as the  
patient reference drive. The PGA gain can be chosen from one of seven settings (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12). The  
ADCs in the device offer data rates from 125 SPS to 8 kSPS. Communication to the device is accomplished  
using an SPI-compatible interface. The device provides two general-purpose I/O (GPIO) pins for general use.  
Multiple devices can be synchronized using the START pin.  
The internal reference can be programmed to either 2.42 V or 4.033 V. The internal oscillator generates a  
512-kHz clock. The versatile right leg drive (RLD) block allows the user to choose the average of any  
combination of electrodes to generate the patient drive signal. Lead-off detection can be accomplished either by  
using an external pull-up/pull-down resistor or the device internal current source/sink. An internal ac lead-off  
detection feature is also available. A detailed diagram of the ADS1191/2 is shown in Figure 13.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
This section contains details of the ADS1191/2 internal functional elements. The analog blocks are discussed  
first followed by the digital interface. Blocks implementing ECG-specific functions are covered in the end.  
Throughout this document, fCLK denotes the frequency of the signal at the CLK pin, tCLK denotes the period of the  
signal at the CLK pin, fDR denotes the output data rate, tDR denotes the time period of the output data, and fMOD  
denotes the frequency at which the modulator samples the input.  
EMI FILTER  
An RC filter at the input acts as an EMI filter on channels 1 and 2. The 3-dB filter bandwidth is approximately  
3 MHz.  
INPUT MULTIPLEXER  
The ADS1191/2 input multiplexers are very flexible and provide many configurable signal switching options.  
Refer to Figure 14 for a diagram of the ADS1191/2 multiplexer. Note that IN3P, IN3N, and RLDIN are common to  
both channels. VINP and VINN are separate for each of the three pins. This flexibility allows for significant device  
and sub-system diagnostics, calibration, and configuration. Selection of switch settings for each channel is made  
by writing the appropriate values to the CH1SET or CH2SET register (see the CH1SET and CH2SET Registers  
in the Register Map section for details.) More details of the ECG-specific features of the multiplexer are  
discussed in the Input Multiplexer subsection of the ECG-Specifc Functions.  
Device Noise Measurements  
Setting CHnSET[3:0] = 0001 sets the common-mode voltage of (VREFP + VREFN)/2 to both inputs of the  
channel. This setting can be used to test the inherent noise of the device in the user system.  
Test Signals (TestP and TestN)  
Setting CHnSET[2:0] = 101 provides internally-generated test signals for use in sub-system verification at  
power-up. This functionality allows the entire signal chain to be tested out. Although the test signals are similar to  
the CAL signals described in the IEC60601-2-51 specification, this feature is not intended for use in compliance  
testing.  
Control of the test signals is accomplished through register settings (see the CONFIG2: Configuration Register 2  
subsection in the Register Map section for details). TEST_AMP controls the signal amplitude and TEST_FREQ  
controls switching at the required frequency.

Auxiliary Differential Input (IN3N, IN3P)  
The IN3N and IN3P signals can be used as a third multiplexed differential input channel. These inputs can be  
multiplexed to either of the ADC channels.  
Temperature Sensor (TempP, TempN)  
The ADS1191/2 contain an on-chip temperature sensor. This sensor uses two internal diodes with one diode  
having a current density 16x that of the other, as shown in Figure 15. The difference in current densities of the  
diodes yields a difference in voltage that is proportional to absolute temperature.  
As a result of the low thermal resistance of the package to the printed circuit board (PCB), the internal device  
temperature tracks the PCB temperature closely. Note that self-heating of the ADS1191/2 causes a higher  
reading than the temperature of the surrounding PCB.  
The scale factor of Equation 1 converts the temperature reading to °C. Before using this equation, the  
temperature reading code must first be scaled to μV.

Supply Measurements (MVDDP, MVDDN)  
Setting CHnSET[2:0] = 011 sets the channel inputs to different supply voltages of the device. For channel 1  
(MVDDP MVDDN) is [0.5(AVDD + AVSS)]; for channel 2 (MVDDP MVDDN) is DVDD/4. Note that to avoid  
saturating the PGA while measuring power supplies, the gain must be set to '1'.  
Lead-Off Excitation Signals (LoffP, LoffN)  
The lead-off excitation signals are fed into the multiplexer before the switches. The comparators that detect the  
lead-off condition are also connected to the multiplexer block before the switches. For a detailed description of  
the lead-off block, refer to the Lead-Off Detection subsection in the ECG-Specific Functions section.  
Auxiliary Single-Ended Input  
The RLDIN pin is primarily used for routing the right leg drive signal to any of the electrodes in case the right leg  
drive electrode falls off. However, the RLDIN pin can be used as a multiple single-ended input channel. The  
signal at the RLDIN pin can be measured with respect to the voltage at the RLD_REF pin using either channel.  
This measurement is done by setting the channel multiplexer setting MUXn[3:0] to '0010' in the CH1SET and  
CH2SET registers.

ANALOG INPUT  
The analog input to the ADS1191/2 is fully differential. Assuming PGA = 1, the differential input (INP INN) can  
span between VREF to +VREF. Refer to Table 4 for an explanation of the correlation between the analog input  
and the digital codes. There are two general methods of driving the analog input of the ADS1191/2: single-ended  
or differential, as shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17. Note that INP and INN are 180°C out-of-phase in the  
differential input method. When the input is single-ended, the INN input is held at the common-mode voltage,  
preferably at mid-supply. The INP input swings around the same common voltage and the peak-to-peak  
amplitude is the (common-mode + 1/2 VREF) and the (common-mode 1/2 VREF). When the input is differential,  
the common-mode is given by (INP + INN)/2. Both the INP and INN inputs swing from (common-mode + 1/2  
VREF to common-mode 1/2 VREF). For optimal performance, it is recommended that the ADS1191/2 be used in  
a differential configuration.

PGA SETTINGS AND INPUT RANGE  
The PGA is a differential input/differential output amplifier, as shown in Figure 18. It has seven gain settings (1,  
2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12) that can be set by writing to the CHnSET register (see the CH1SET and CH2SET Registers  
in the Register Map section for details). The ADS1191/2 have CMOS inputs and hence have negligible current  
noise.

Figure 18. PGA Implementation  
The resistor string of the PGA that implements the gain has 360 kΩ of resistance for a gain of 6. This resistance  
provides a current path across the outputs of the PGA in the presence of a differential input signal. This current  
is in addition to the quiescent current specified for the device in the presence of a differential signal at the input.  
The output of PGA is filtered by an RC filter before it goes to the ADC. The filter is formed by an internal resistor  
RS = 2 kΩ and an external capacitor CFILTER (4.7 nF, typical). This filter acts as an anti-aliasing filter with  
the 3-dB bandwidth of 8.4 kHz. The internal RS resistor is accurate to 15% so actual bandwidth will vary. This  
RC filter also suppresses the glitch at the output of PGA caused by ADC sampling. The minimum value of CEXT  
that can be used is 4 nF. A larger value CFILTER capacitor can be used for increased attenution at higher  
frequencies for anti-aliasing purposes. The tradeoff is that a larger capacitor value gives degraded THD  
performance. See Figure 19 for a plot showing the THD versus CFILTER value.

Special care must be taken in PCB layout to minimize the parasitic capacitance CP1/CP2. The absolute value of  
these capacitances must be less than 20 pF. Ideally, CFILTER should be placed right at the pins to minimize these  
capacitors. Mismatch between these capacitors will lead to CMRR degradation. Assuming everything else is  
perfectly matched, the 60 Hz CMRR as a function of this mismatch is given by Equation 2.

For example, a mismatch of 20 pF with a gain of 6 limits the CMRR to 112 dB. If ΔCP is small, then the CMRR is  
limited by the PGA itself and is as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. The PGA are chopped  
internally at either 8, 32, or 64 kSPS. The digital decimation filter filters out the chopping ripple in the normal path  
so the chopping ripple is not a concern. First-order filtering is provided by the RC filter at the PGA output.  
Additional filtering may be needed to suppress the chopping ripple. If the PGA output is routed to other circuitry,  
a 20-kΩ series resistance must be added in the path near the CFILTER capacitor. The routing should be matched  
to maintain the CMRR performance.  
Input Common-Mode Range  
The usable input common-mode range of the front end depends on various parameters, including the maximum  
differential input signal, supply voltage, PGA gain, etc. This range is described in Equation 3:  
Gain VMAX_DIFF

where:  
VMAX_DIFF = maximum differential signal at the input of the PGA  
CM = common-mode range

For example:  
If VDD = 3 V, gain = 6, and VMAX_DIFF = 350 mV  
Then 1.25 V < CM < 1.75 V  
Input Differential Dynamic Range  
The differential (INP INN) signal range depends on the analog supply and reference used in the system. This  
range is shown in Equation 4.

The 3-V supply, with a reference of 2.42 V and a gain of 6 for ECGs, is optimized for power with a differential

VREF_4V bit of the CONFIG3 register) can be used to increase the differential dynamic range.

ADC ΔΣ Modulator  
Each channel of the ADS1191/2 has a 16-bit ΔΣ ADC. This converter uses a second-order modulator optimized  
for low-power applications. The modulator samples the input signal at the rate of fMOD = fCLK/4 or fCLK/16, as  
determined by the CLK_DIV bit. In both cases, the sampling clock has a typical value of 128 kHz. As in the case  
of any ΔΣ modulator, the noise of the ADS1191/2 is shaped until fMOD/2, as shown in Figure 20. The on-chip  
digital decimation filters explained in the next section can be used to filter out the noise at higher frequencies.  
These on-chip decimation filters also provide antialias filtering. This feature of the ΔΣ converters drastically  
reduces the complexity of the analog antialiasing filters that are typically needed with nyquist ADCs.

DIGITAL DECIMATION FILTER  
The digital filter receives the modulator output and decimates the data stream. By adjusting the amount of  
filtering, tradeoffs can be made between resolution and data rate: filter more for higher resolution, filter less for  
higher data rates. Higher data rates are typically used in ECG applications for implement software pace detection  
and ac lead-off detection.  
The digital filter on each channel consists of a third-order sinc filter. The decimation ratio on the sinc filters can  
be adjusted by the DR bits in the CONFIG1 register (see the Register Map section for details). This setting is a  
global setting that affects all channels and, therefore, in a device all channels operate at the same data rate.  
Sinc Filter Stage (sinx/x)  
The sinc filter is a variable decimation rate, third-order, low-pass filter. Data are supplied to this section of the  
filter from the modulator at the rate of fMOD. The sinc filter attenuates the high-frequency noise of the modulator,  
then decimates the data stream into parallel data. The decimation rate affects the overall data rate of the  
converter.  
Equation 5 shows the scaled Z-domain transfer function of the sinc filter.

The sinc filter has notches (or zeroes) that occur at the output data rate and multiples thereof. At these  
frequencies, the filter has infinite attenuation. Figure 21 shows the frequency response of the sinc filter and  
Figure 22 shows the roll-off of the sinc filter. With a step change at input, the filter takes 3 tDR to settle. After a  
rising edge of the START signal, the filter takes tSETTLE time to give the first data output. The settling time of the  
filters at various data rates are discussed in the START subsection of the SPI Interface section. Figure 23 and  
Figure 24 show the filter transfer function until fMOD/2 and fMOD/16, respectively, at different data rates. Figure 25  
shows the transfer function extended until 4 fMOD. It can be seen that the passband of the ADS1191/2 repeats  
itself at every fMOD. The input R-C anti-aliasing filters in the system should be chosen such that any interference  
in frequencies around multiples of fMOD are attenuated sufficiently.

Figure 26. Internal Reference  
The external band-limiting capacitors determine the amount of reference noise contribution. For high-end ECG  
systems, the capacitor values should be chosen such that the bandwidth is limited to less than 10 Hz, so that the  
reference noise does not dominate the system noise. When using a 3-V analog supply, the internal reference  
must be set to 2.42 V. In case of a 5-V analog supply, the internal reference can be set to 4.033 V by setting the  
VREF_4V bit in the CONFIG2 register.  
Alternatively, the internal reference buffer can be powered down and VREFP can be applied externally. Figure 27  
shows a typical external reference drive circuitry. Power-down is controlled by the PD_REFBUF bit in the  
CONFIG3 register. This power-down is also used to share internal references when two devices are cascaded.  
By default, the device wakes up in external reference mode.

CLOCK  
The ADS1191/2 provide two different methods for device clocking: internal and external. Internal clocking is  
ideally suited for low-power, battery-powered systems. The internal oscillator is trimmed for accuracy at room  
temperature. Over the specified temperature range the accuracy varies; see the Electrical Characteristics. Clock  
selection is controlled by the CLKSEL pin and the CLK_EN register bit.  
The CLKSEL pin selects either the internal or external clock. The CLK_EN bit in the CONFIG1 register enables  
and disables the oscillator clock to be output in the CLK pin. A truth table for these two pins is shown in Table 3.  
The CLK_EN bit is useful when multiple devices are used in a daisy-chain configuration. It is recommended that  
during power-down the external clock be shut down to save power.

The ADS1191/2 have the option to choose between two different external clock frequencies (512 kHz or  
2.048 MHz). This frequency is selected by setting the CLK_DIV bit (bit 6) in the LOFF_STAT register. The  
modulator must be clocked at 128 kHz, regardless of the external clock frequency. Figure 28 shows the  
relationship between the external clock (fCLK) and the modulator clock (fMOD). The default mode of operation is  
fCLK = 512 kHz. The higher frequency option has only been provided to allow the SPI to run at a higher speed.  
SCLK can be only twice the speed of fCLK during a register read and/or write.

DATA FORMAT  
The ADS1191/2 outputs 16 bits of data per channel in binary twos complement format, MSB first. The LSB has a  
weight of VREF/(215 1). A positive full-scale input produces an output code of 7FFFh and the negative full-scale  
input produces an output code of 8000h. The output clips at these codes for signals exceeding full-scale. Table 4  
summarizes the ideal output codes for different input signals. All 16 bits toggle when the analog input is at  
positive or negative full-scale.

SPI INTERFACE  
The SPI-compatible serial interface consists of four signals: CS, SCLK, DIN, and DOUT. The interface reads  
conversion data, reads and writes registers, and controls the ADS1191/2 operation. The DRDY output is used as  
a status signal to indicate when data are ready. DRDY goes low when new data are available.  
Chip Select (CS)  
Chip select (CS) selects the ADS1191/2 for SPI communication. CS must remain low for the entire duration of  
the serial communication. After the serial communication is finished, always wait four or more tCLK cycles before  
taking CS high. When CS is taken high, the serial interface is reset, SCLK and DIN are ignored, and DOUT  
enters a high-impedance state. DRDY asserts when data conversion is complete, regardless of whether CS is  
high or low.  
Serial Clock (SCLK)  
SCLK is the serial peripheral interface (SPI) serial clock. It is used to shift in commands and shift out data from  
the device. The serial clock (SCLK) features a Schmitt-triggered input and clocks data on the DIN and DOUT  
pins into and out of the ADS1191/2. Even though the input has hysteresis, it is recommended to keep SCLK as  
clean as possible to prevent glitches from accidentally forcing a clock event. The absolute maximum limit for  
SCLK is specified in the Serial Interface Timing table. When shifting in commands with SCLK, make sure that the  
entire set of SCLKs is issued to the device. Failure to do so could result in the device serial interface being  
placed into an unknown state, requiring CS to be taken high to recover.  
For a single device, the minimum speed needed for the SCLK depends on the number of channels, number of  
bits of resolution, and output data rate. (For multiple cascaded devices, see the Cascade Mode subsection of the  
Multiple Device Configuration section.)  
tSCLK < (tDR 4 tCLK)/(NBITSNCHANNELS + 24)  
(7)  
For example, if the ADS1191/2 is used in a 500-SPS mode (two channels, 16-bit resolution), the minimum SCLK  
speed is approximately 36 kHz.  
Data retrieval can be done either by putting the device in RDATAC mode or by issuing a RDATA command for  
data on demand. The above SCLK rate limitation applies to RDATAC. For the RDATA command, the limitation  
applies if data must be read in between two consecutive DRDY signals. The above calculation assumes that  
there are no other commands issued in between data captures. SCLK can only be twice the speed of fCLK during  
register reads and writes. For faster SPI interface, use fCLK = 2.048 MHz and set the CLK_DIV register bit (in the  
LOFF_STAT register) to '1'.

Data Input (DIN)  
The data input pin (DIN) is used along with SCLK to communicate with the ADS1191/2 (opcode commands and  
register data). The device latches data on DIN on the falling edge of SCLK.  
Data Output (DOUT)  
The data output pin (DOUT) is used with SCLK to read conversion and register data from the ADS1191/2. Data  
on DOUT are shifted out on the rising edge of SCLK. DOUT goes to a high-impedance state when CS is high. In  
read data continuous mode (see the SPI Command Definitions section for more details), the DOUT output line  
also indicates when new data are available. This feature can be used to minimize the number of connections  
between the device and the system controller.

Data Retrieval  
Data retrieval can be accomplished in one of two methods. The read data continuous command (see the  
RDATAC: Read Data Continuous section) can be used to set the device in a mode to read the data continuously  
without sending opcodes. The read data command (see the RDATA: Read Data section) can be used to read  
just one data output from the device (see the SPI Command Definitions section for more details). The conversion  
data are read by shifting the data out on DOUT. The MSB of the data on DOUT is clocked out on the first SCLK  
rising edge. DRDY returns to high on the first SCLK falling edge. DIN should remain low for the entire read  
operation.  
The number of bits in the data output depends on the number of channels and the number of bits per channel.  
For the ADS1191/2, the number of data outputs is (16 status bits + 16 bits × 2 channels) = 48 bits. The format of  
the 16 status bits is (1100 + LOFF_STAT[4:0] + GPIO[1:0] + 5 zeros). The data format for each channel data are  
twos complement and MSB first. When channels are powered down using the user register setting, the  
corresponding channel output is set to '0'. However, the sequence of channel outputs remains the same.  
The ADS1191/2 also provide a multiple readback feature. The data can be read out multiple times by simply  
giving more SCLKs, in which case the MSB data byte repeats after reading the last byte.  
Data Ready (DRDY)  
DRDY is an output. When it transitions low, new conversion data are ready. The CS signal has no effect on the  
data ready signal. The behavior of DRDY is determined by whether the device is in RDATAC mode or the  
RDATA command is being used to read data on demand. (See the RDATAC: Read Data Continuous and  
RDATA: Read Data subsections of the SPI Command Definitions section for further details).  
When reading data with the RDATA command, the read operation can overlap the occurrence of the next DRDY  
without data corruption.  
The START pin or the START command is used to place the device either in normal data capture mode or pulse  
data capture mode.

Figure 30 shows the relationship between DRDY, DOUT, and SCLK during data retrieval (in case of an  
ADS1191/2 with a selected data rate that gives 16-bit resolution). DOUT is latched out at the rising edge of  
SCLK. DRDY is pulled high at the falling edge of SCLK. Note that DRDY goes high on the first falling edge SCLK  
regardless of the status of the CS signal and regardless of whether data are being retrieved from the device or a  
command is being sent through the DIN pin.

GPIO  
The ADS1191/2 have a total of two general-purpose digital I/O (GPIO) pins available in the normal mode of  
operation. The digital I/O pins are individually configurable as either inputs or as outputs through the GPIOC bits  
register. The GPIOD bits in the GPIO register control the level of the pins. When reading the GPIOD bits, the  
data returned are the logic level of the pins, whether they are programmed as inputs or outputs. When the GPIO  
pin is configured as an input, a write to the corresponding GPIOD bit has no effect. When configured as an  
output, a write to the GPIOD bit sets the output value.  
If configured as inputs, these pins must be driven (do not float). The GPIO pins are set as inputs after power-on  
or after a reset. Figure 31 shows the GPIO port structure. The pins should be shorted to DGND with a series  
resistor if not used.

Power-Down/Reset (PWDN/RESET)  
The PWDN/RESET pins are shared. If PWDN/RESET is held low for longer than 29 tMODs, the device is powered  
down. The implementation is such that the device is always reset when PWDN/RESET makes a transition from  
high to low. If the device is powered down it is reset first and then if 210 clock elapses it is powered down. Hence,  
when powering up the device from a power-down state, all registers must be rewritten.  
There are two methods to reset the ADS1191/2: pull the PWDN/RESET pin low, or send the RESET opcode  
command. When using the PWDN/RESET pin, take it low to force a reset. Make sure to follow the minimum  
pulse width timing specifications before taking the PWDN/RESET pin back high. The RESET command takes  
effect on the eighth SCLK falling edge of the opcode command. On reset it takes 18 tCLK cycles to complete  
initialization of the configuration registers to the default states and start the conversion cycle. Note that an  
internal RESET is automatically issued to the digital filter whenever the CONFIG1 register is set to a new value  
with a WREG command.

START  
The START pin must be set high or the START command sent to begin conversions. When START is low or if  
the START command has not been sent, the device does not issue a DRDY signal (conversions are halted).  
When using the START opcode to control conversion, hold the START pin low. The ADS1191/2 feature two  
modes to control conversion: continuous mode and single-shot mode. The mode is selected by SINGLE_SHOT  
(bit 7 of the CONFIG1 register). In multiple device configurations the START pin is used to synchronize devices  
(see the Multiple Device Configuration subsection of the SPI Interface section for more details).  
Settling Time  
The settling time (tSETTLE) is the time it takes for the converter to output fully settled data when the START signal  
is pulled high. Once START is pulled high, DRDY is also pulled high. The next falling edge of DRDY indicates  
that data are ready. Figure 32 shows the timing diagram and Table 5 shows the settling time for different data  
rates. The settling time depends on fCLK and the decimation ratio (controlled by the DR[2:0] bits in the CONFIG1  
register). Table 4 shows the settling time as a function of tCLK. Note that when START is held high and there is a  
step change in the input signal, it takes 3 tDR for the filter to settle to the new value. Settled data are available on  
the fourth DRDY pulse. Settling time number uncertainty is one tMOD cycle. Therefore, it is recommended to add  
one tMOD cycle delay before issuing SCLK to retrieve data.

Continuous Mode  
Conversions begin when the START pin is taken high or when the START opcode command is sent. As seen in  
Figure 33, the DRDY output goes high when conversions are started and goes low when data are ready.  
Conversions continue indefinitely until the START pin is taken low or the STOP opcode command is transmitted.  
When the START pin is pulled low or the stop command is issued, the conversion in progress is allowed to  
complete. Figure 34 and Table 6 show the required timing of DRDY to the START pin and the START/STOP  
opcode commands when controlling conversions in this mode. To keep the converter running continuously, the  
START pin can be permanently tied high. Note that when switching from pulse mode to continuous mode, the  
START signal is pulsed or a STOP command must be issued followed by a START command. This conversion  
mode is ideal for applications that require a fixed continuous stream of conversions results.

Single-Shot Mode  
The single-shot mode is enabled by setting the SINGLE_SHOT bit in the CONFIG1 register to '1'. In single-shot  
mode, the ADS1191/2 perform a single conversion when the START pin is taken high or when the START  
opcode command is sent. As seen in Figure 34, when a conversion is complete, DRDY goes low and further  
conversions are stopped. Regardless of whether the conversion data are read or not, DRDY remains low. To  
begin a new conversion, take the START pin low and then back high, or transmit the START opcode again.  
When switching from continuous mode to pulse mode, make sure the START signal is pulsed or issue a STOP  
command followed by a START command.  
This conversion mode is provided for applications that require non-standard or non-continuous data rates.  
Issuing a START command or toggling the START pin high resets the digital filter, effectively dropping the data  
rate by a factor of four. Note that this mode leaves the system more susceptible to aliasing effects, requiring  
more complex analog anti-aliasing filters at the inputs. Loading on the host processor increases because it must  
toggle the START pin or send a START command to initiate a new conversion cycle.

MULTIPLE DEVICE CONFIGURATION  
The ADS1191/2 are designed to provide configuration flexibility when multiple devices are used in a system. The  
serial interface typically needs four signals: DIN, DOUT, SCLK, and CS. With one additional chip select signal  
per device, multiple devices can be connected together. The number of signals needed to interface n devices is  
3 + n.  
The right leg drive amplifiers can be daisy-chained as explained in the RLD Configuration with Multiple Devices  
subsection of the ECG-Specific Functions section. To use the internal oscillator in a daisy-chain configuration,  
one of the devices must be set as the master for the clock source with the internal oscillator enabled (CLKSEL  
pin = 1) and the internal oscillator clock brought out of the device by setting the CLK_EN register bit to '1'. This  
master device clock is used as the external clock source for the other devices.

When using multiple devices, the devices can be synchronized with the START signal. The delay from START to  
the DRDY signal is fixed for a fixed data rate (see the START subsection of the SPI Interface section for more  
details on the settling times). Figure 36 shows the behavior of two devices when synchronized with the START  
signal.

Figure 37 shows a configuration with two devices cascaded together. One of the devices is an ADS1192  
(two-channel) and the other is an ADS1192 (two-channel). Together, they create a system with four channels.  
DOUT, SCLK, and DIN are shared. Each device has its own chip select. When a device is not selected by the  
corresponding CS being driven to logic 1, the DOUT of this device is high-impedance. This structure allows the  
other device to take control of the DOUT bus.

SPI COMMAND DEFINITIONS  
The ADS1191/2 provide flexible configuration control. The opcode commands, summarized in Table 7, control  
and configure the operation of the ADS1191/2. The opcode commands are stand-alone, except for the register  
read and register write operations that require a second command byte plus data. CS can be taken high or held  
low between opcode commands but must stay low for the entire command operation (especially for multi-byte  
commands). System opcode commands and the RDATA command are decoded by the ADS1191/2 on the  
seventh falling edge of SCLK. The register read/write opcodes are decoded on the eighth SCLK falling edge. Be  
sure to follow SPI timing requirements when pulling CS high after issuing a command.

WAKEUP: Exit STANDBY Mode  
This opcode exits the low-power standby mode; see the STANDBY: Enter STANDBY Mode subsection of the  
SPI Command Definitions section. Time is required when exiting standby mode (see the Electrical  
Characteristics for details). There are no restrictions on the SCLK rate for this command and it can be  
issued any time. Any following command must be sent after 4 tCLK cycles.  
STANDBY: Enter STANDBY Mode  
This opcode command enters the low-power standby mode. All parts of the circuit are shut down except for the  
reference section. The standby mode power consumption is specified in the Electrical Characteristics. There are  
no restrictions on the SCLK rate for this command and it can be issued any time. Do not send any other  
command other than the wakeup command after the device enters the standby mode.  
RESET: Reset Registers to Default Values  
This command resets the digital filter cycle and returns all register settings to the default values. See the Reset  
(RESET) subsection of the SPI Interface section for more details. There are no restrictions on the SCLK rate  
for this command and it can be issued any time. It takes 9 fMOD cycles to execute the RESET command.  
Avoid sending any commands during this time.

START: Start Conversions  
This opcode starts data conversions. Tie the START pin low to control conversions by command. If conversions  
are in progress this command has no effect. The STOP opcode command is used to stop conversions. If the  
START command is immediately followed by a STOP command then have a gap of 4 tCLK cycles between them.  
When the START opcode is sent to the device, keep the START pin low until the STOP command is issued.  
(See the START subsection of the SPI Interface section for more details.) There are no restrictions on the  
SCLK rate for this command and it can be issued any time.  
STOP: Stop Conversions  
This opcode stops conversions. Tie the START pin low to control conversions by command. When the STOP  
command is sent, the conversion in progress completes and further conversions are stopped. If conversions are  
already stopped, this command has no effect. There are no restrictions on the SCLK rate for this command and it  
can be issued any time.  
OFFSETCAL: Channel Offset Calibration  
This command is used to cancel the channel offset. The CALIB_ON bit in the MISC2 register must be set to '1'  
before issuing this command. OFFSETCAL must be executed every time there is a change in the PGA gain  
settings.  
RDATAC: Read Data Continuous  
This opcode enables the output of conversion data on each DRDY without the need to issue subsequent read  
data opcodes. This mode places the conversion data in the output register and may be shifted out directly. The  
read data continuous mode is the default mode of the device and the device defaults in this mode on power-up.  
RDATAC mode is cancelled by the Stop Read Data Continuous command. If the device is in RDATAC mode, an  
SDATAC command must be issued before any other commands can be sent to the device. There is no  
restriction on the SCLK rate for this command. However, the subsequent data retrieval SCLKs or the SDATAC  
opcode command should wait at least 4 tCLK cycles. The timing for RDATAC is shown in Figure 38. As Figure 38  
shows, there is a keep out zone of 4 tCLK cycles around the DRDY pulse where this command cannot be issued  
in. If no data are retrieved from the device, DOUT and DRDY behave similarly in this mode. To retrieve data from  
the device after the RDATAC command is issued, make sure either the START pin is high or the START  
command is issued. Figure 38 shows the recommended way to use the RDATAC command. RDATAC is ideally  
suited for applications such as data loggers or recorders where registers are set once and do not need to be  
re-configured.

SDATAC: Stop Read Data Continuous  
This opcode cancels the Read Data Continuous mode. There is no restriction on the SCLK rate for this  
command, but the following command must wait for 4 tCLK cycles.  
RDATA: Read Data  
Issue this command after DRDY goes low to read the conversion result (in Stop Read Data Continuous mode).  
There is no restriction on the SCLK rate for this command, and there is no wait time needed for the subsequent  
commands or data retrieval SCLKs. To retrieve data from the device after the RDATA command is issued, make  
sure either the START pin is high or the START command is issued. When reading data with the RDATA  
command, the read operation can overlap the occurrence of the next DRDY without data corruption. Figure 39  
shows the recommended way to use the RDATA command. RDATA is best suited for ECG- and EEG-type  
systems where register setting must be read or changed often between conversion cycles.

Sending Multi-Byte Commands  
The ADS1191/2 serial interface decodes commands in bytes and requires 4 tCLK cycles to decode and execute.  
Therefore, when sending multi-byte commands, a 4 tCLK period must separate the end of one byte (or opcode)  
and the next.  
Assume CLK is 512 kHz, then tSDECODE (4 tCLK) is 7.8125 µs. When SCLK is 16 MHz, one byte can be  
transferred in 500 ns. This byte transfer time does not meet the tSDECODE specification; therefore, a delay must be  
inserted so the end of the second byte arrives 7.3125 µs later. If SCLK is 1 MHz, one byte is transferred in 8 µs.  
Because this transfer time exceeds the tSDECODE specification, the processor can send subsequent bytes without  
delay. In this later scenario, the serial port can be programmed to cease single-byte transfer per cycle to multiple  
bytes.

RREG: Read From Register  
This opcode reads register data. The Register Read command is a two-byte opcode followed by the output of the  
register data. The first byte contains the command opcode and the register address. The second byte of the  
opcode specifies the number of registers to read 1.  
First opcode byte: 001r rrrr, where r rrrr is the starting register address.  
Second opcode byte: 000n nnnn, where n nnnn is the number of registers to read 1.  
The 17th SCLK rising edge of the operation clocks out the MSB of the first register, as shown in Figure 40. When  
the device is in read data continuous mode it is necessary to issue a SDATAC command before the RREG  
command can be issued. The RREG command can be issued any time. However, because this command is a  
multi-byte command, there are restrictions on the SCLK rate depending on the way the SCLKs are issued. See  
the Serial Clock (SCLK) subsection of the SPI Interface section for more details. Note that CS must be low for  
the entire command.

WREG: Write to Register  
This opcode writes register data. The Register Write command is a two-byte opcode followed by the input of the  
register data. The first byte contains the command opcode and the register address.  
The second byte of the opcode specifies the number of registers to write 1.  
First opcode byte: 010r rrrr, where r rrrr is the starting register address.  
Second opcode byte: 000n nnnn, where n nnnn is the number of registers to write 1.  
After the opcode bytes, the register data follows (in MSB-first format), as shown in Figure 41. The WREG  
command can be issued any time. However, because this command is a multi-byte command, there are  
restrictions on the SCLK rate depending on the way the SCLKs are issued. See the Serial Clock (SCLK)  
subsection of the SPI Interface section for more details. Note that CS must be low for the entire command.

ECG-SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS  
INPUT MULTIPLEXER (REROUTING THE RIGHT LEG DRIVE SIGNAL)  
The input multiplexer has ECG-specific functions for the right leg drive signal. The RLD signal is available at the  
RLDOUT pin once the appropriate channels are selected for the RLD derivation, feedback elements are installed  
external to the chip, and the loop is closed. This signal can be fed after filtering or fed directly into the RLDIN pin  
as shown in Figure 42. This RLDIN signal can be multiplexed into any one of the input electrodes by setting the  
MUX bits of the appropriate channel set registers to '0110' for P-side or '0111' for N-side. Figure 42 shows the  
RLD signal generated from channel 1 and routed to the N-side of channel 2. This feature can be used to  
dynamically change the electrode that is used as the reference signal to drive the patient body. Note that the  
corresponding channel cannot be used and can be powered down.

Also, the RLDOUT signal can be routed to a channel (that is not used for the calculation of RLD) for  
measurement. Figure 43 shows the register settings to route the RLDIN signal to channel 2. The measurement is  
done with respect to the voltage on the RLDREF pin. If RLDREF is chosen to be internal, it would be at (AVDD +

LEAD-OFF DETECTION  
Patient electrode impedances are known to decay over time. It is necessary to continuously monitor these  
electrode connections to verify a suitable connection is present. The ADS1191/2 lead-off detection functional  
block provides significant flexibility to the user to choose from various lead-off detection strategies. Though called  
lead-off detection, this is in fact an electrode-off detection.  
The basic principle is to inject an excitation signal and measure the response to find out if the electrode is off. As  
shown in the lead-off detection functional block diagram in Figure 44, this circuit provides two different methods  
of determining the state of the patient electrode. The methods differ in the frequency content of the excitation  
signal. Lead-off can be selectively done on a per channel basis using the LOFF_SENS register. Also, the internal  
excitation circuitry can be disabled and just the sensing circuitry can be enabled.

DC Lead-Off  
In this method, the lead-off excitation is with a dc signal. The dc excitation signal can be chosen from either an  
external pull-up/pull-down resistor or a current source/sink, as shown in Figure 45. One side of the channel is  
pulled to supply and the other side is pulled to ground. The internal current source and current sink can be  
swapped by setting thebits in the LOFF_FLIP register. In case of current source/sink, the magnitude of the  
current can be set by using the ILEAD_OFF[1:0] bits in the LOFF register. The current source/sink gives larger  
input impedance compared to the 10-Mpull-up/pull-down resistor.

Figure 45. DC Lead-Off Excitation Options  
Sensing of the response can be done either by looking at the digital output code from the device or by monitoring  
the input voltages with an on-chip comparator. If either of the electrodes is off, the pull-up resistors and/or the  
pull-down resistors saturate the channel. By looking at the output code it can be determined that either the P-side  
or the N-side is off. To pinpoint which one is off, the comparators must be used. The input voltage is also  
monitored using a comparator and a 4-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) whose levels are set by the  
COMP_TH[2:0] bits in the LOFF register. The output of the comparators are stored in the LOFF_STAT register.  
These two registers are available as a part of the output data stream. (See the Data Output Protocol (DOUT)  
subsection of the SPI Interface section.) If dc lead-off is not used, the lead-off comparators can be powered  
down by setting the PD_LOFF_COMP bit in the CONFIG2 register.  
An example procedure to turn on dc lead-off is given in the Lead-Off subsection of the Quick-Start Guide section.  
AC Lead-Off  
In this method, an out-of-band ac signal is used for excitation. The ac signal is generated by alternatively  
providing an internal current source and current sink at the input with a fixed frequency. The excitation frequency  
is a function of the output data rate and is fDR/4. This out-of-band excitation signal is passed through the channel  
and measured at the output.  
Sensing of the ac signal is done by passing the signal through the channel to digitize it and measure at the  
output. The ac excitation signals are introduced at a frequency that is above the band of interest, generating an  
out-of-band differential signal that can be filtered out separately and processed. By measuring the magnitude of  
the excitation signal at the output spectrum, the lead-off status can be calculated. Therefore, the ac lead-off  
detection can be accomplished simultaneously with the ECG signal acquisition.

RLD Lead-Off  
The ADS1191/2 provide two modes for determining whether the RLD is correctly connected:  
RLD lead-off detection during normal operation  
RLD lead-off detection during power-up  
The following sections provide details of the two modes of operation.  
RLD Lead-Off Detection During Normal Operation  
During normal operation, the ADS1191/2 RLD lead-off at power-up function cannot be used because it is  
necessary to power off the RLD amplifier.  
RLD Lead-Off Detection At Power-Up  
This feature is included in the ADS1191/2 for use in determining whether the right leg electrode is suitably  
connected. At power-up, the ADS1191/2 provides a procedure to determine the RLD electrode connection status  
using a current sink, as shown in Figure 46. The reference level of the comparator is set to determine the  
acceptable RLD impedance threshold.

Right Leg Drive (RLD DC Bias Circuit)  
The right leg drive (RLD) circuitry is used as a means to counter the common-mode interference in an ECG  
system as a result of power lines and other sources, including fluorescent lights. The RLD circuit senses the  
common-mode of a selected set of electrodes and creates a negative feedback loop by driving the body with an  
inverted common-mode signal. The negative feedback loop restricts the common-mode movement to a narrow  
range, depending on the loop gain. Stabilizing the entire loop is specific to the individual user system based on  
the various poles in the loop. The ADS1191/2 integrates the muxes to select the channel and an operational  
amplifier. All the amplifier terminals are available at the pins, allowing the user to choose the components for the  
feedback loop. The circuit shown in Figure 47 shows the overall functional connectivity for the RLD bias circuit.

The reference voltage for the right leg drive can be chosen to be internally generated (AVDD + AVSS)/2 or it can  
be provided externally with a resistive divider. The selection of an internal versus external reference voltage for  
the RLD loop is defined by writing the appropriate value to the RLDREF_INT bit in the MISC2 register.  
If the RLD function is not used, the amplifier can be powered down using the PDB_RLD bit. This bit is also used  
in daisy-chain mode to power-down all but one of the RLD amplifiers.  
The functionality of the RLDIN pin is explained in the Input Multiplexer section. An example procedure to use the  
RLD amplifier is shown in the Right Leg Drive subsection of the Quick-Start Guide section.

QUICK-START GUIDE  
PCB LAYOUT  
Power Supplies and Grounding  
The ADS1191/2 have two supplies: AVDD and DVDD. AVDD should be as quiet as possible. AVDD provides the  
supply to the charge pump block and has transients at fCLK. It is important to eliminate noise from AVDD that is  
non-synchronous with the ADS1191/2 operation. Each supply of the ADS1191/2 should be bypassed with 10-μF  
and a 0.1-μF solid ceramic capacitors. It is recommended that placement of the digital circuits (DSP,  
microcontrollers, FPGAs, etc.) in the system is done such that the return currents on those devices do not cross  
the analog return path of the ADS1191/2. The ADS1191/2 can be powered from unipolar or bipolar supplies.  
The capacitors used for decoupling can be of the surface-mount, low-cost, low-profile multi-layer ceramic type. In  
most cases the VCAP1 capacitor can also be a multi-layer ceramic, but in systems where the board is subjected  
to high or low frequency vibration, it is recommend that a non-ferroelectric capacitor such as a tantalum or class  
1 capacitor (for example, C0G or NPO) be installed. EIA class 2 and class 3 dielectrics (such as X7R, X5R, X8R,  
etc.) are ferroelectric. The piezoelectric property of these capacitors can appear as electrical noise coming from  
the capacitor. When using internal reference, noise on the VCAP1 node results in performance degradation.  
Connecting the Device to Unipolar (+3 V/+1.8 V) Supplies  
Figure 49 illustrates the ADS1191/2 connected to a unipolar supply. In this example, the analog supply (AVDD) is  
referenced to analog ground (AVSS) and the digital supply (DVDD) is referenced to digital ground (DGND).

Shielding Analog Signal Paths  
As with any precision circuit, careful PCB layout ensures the best performance. It is essential to make short,  
direct interconnections and avoid stray wiring capacitanceparticularly at the analog input pins and AVSS.  
These analog input pins are high-impedance and extremely sensitive to extraneous noise. The AVSS pin should  
be treated as a sensitive analog signal and connected directly to the supply ground with proper shielding.  
Leakage currents between the PCB traces can exceed the input bias current of the ADS1191/2 if shielding is not  
implemented. Digital signals should be kept as far as possible from the analog input signals on the PCB.

POWER-UP SEQUENCING  
Before device power-up, all digital and analog inputs must be low. At the time of power-up, all of these signals  
should remain low until the power supplies have stabilized, as shown in Figure 51. At this time, begin supplying  
the master clock signal to the CLK pin. Wait for time tPOR, then transmit a RESET pulse. After releasing RESET,  
the configuration register must be programmed, see the CONFIG1: Configuration Register 1 subsection of the  
Register Map section for details. The power-up sequence timing is shown in Table 9.

SETTING THE DEVICE FOR BASIC DATA CAPTURE  
The following section outlines the procedure to configure the device in a basic state and capture data. This  
procedure is intended to put the device in a data sheet condition to check if the device is working properly in the  
user's system. It is recommended that this procedure be followed initially to get familiar with the device settings.  
Once this procedure has been verified, the device can be configured as needed. For details on the timings for  
commands refer to the appropriate sections in the data sheet. Also, some sample programming codes are added  
for the ECG-specific functions.
