system design
•
•
The device integrates input and reference buffers
to reduce signal loading. The low-drift modulator
achieves excellent dc precision with low in-band noise
for outstanding ac performance. The power-scalable
architecture provides two speed modes to optimize
data rate, resolution, and power consumption.
•
The digital filter is configurable for wideband or low-
latency operation, allowing wideband ac performance
or data throughput for dc signals to be optimized, all in
one device.
•
•
•
The serial interface features daisy-chain capability to
reduce the SPI I/O over an isolation barrier. Input and
output data and register settings are validated by a
cyclic-redundancy check (CRC) feature to enhance
operational reliability.

(1) Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If briefly operating outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not
sustain damage, but it may not be fully functional – this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device
lifetime.
(2) Analog input pins AINP, AINN, REFP, and REFN are diode-clamped to AVDD1 and AVSS. Limit the input current to 10 mA in the event
the analog input voltage exceeds AVDD1 + 0.3 V or AVSS – 0.3 V. Digital input pin START and digital output pins SDO/DRDY and
DRDY are diode-clamped to IOVDD and DGND. Digital input pins CS, SCLK, SDI, RESET and CLK are diode-clamped to DGND.
Limit the input current to 10 mA in the event the digital input voltage exceeds IOVDD + 0.3 V (for effected pins) or exceeds DGND –
0.3 V.

7 Parameter Measurement Information
7.1 Offset Error Measurement
Offset error is measured with the ADC inputs externally shorted together. The input common-mode voltage is
fixed to the mid-point of the AVDD1 and AVSS power-supply range. Offset error is specified at TA = 25°C.
7.2 Offset Drift Measurement
Offset drift is defined as the change in offset voltage measured at multiple points over the specified temperature
range. Offset drift is calculated using the box method in which a box is formed over the maximum and minimum
offset voltages and over the specified temperature range. The box method specifies limits for the temperature
error but does not specify the exact shape and slope of the device under test.
Equation 1 shows the offset drift calculation using the box method:
Offset Drift (nV/°C) = 109 · (VOFSMAX – VOFSMIN) / (TMAX – TMIN
)
(1)
where:
•
•
VOFSMAX and VOFSMIN = Maximum and minimum offset voltages over the specified temperature range
TMAX and TMIN = Maximum and minimum temperatures
7.3 Gain Error Measurement
Gain error is defined as the difference between the actual and the ideal slopes of the ADC transfer function. Gain
error is measured by applying dc test voltages at –95% and 95% of FSR. The error is calculated by subtracting
the difference of the dc test voltages (ideal slope) from the difference in the ADC output voltages (actual slope).
The difference in the slopes is divided by the ideal slope and multiplied by 106 to convert the error to ppm of
FSR. Error resulting from the ADC reference voltage is excluded from the gain error measurement. The gain
error is specified at TA = 25°C. Equation 2 shows the calculation of gain error:
Gain Error (ppm of FSR) = 106 · (ΔVOUT – ΔVIN) / ΔVIN
(2)
where:
•
•
ΔVOUT = Difference of two ADC output voltages
ΔVIN = Difference of two input test voltages
7.4 Gain Drift Measurement
Gain drift is defined as the change of gain error measured at multiple points over the specified temperature
range. The box method is used in which a box is formed over the maximum and minimum gain errors over the
specified temperature range. The box method specifies limits for the temperature error but does not specify the
exact shape and slope of the device under test. Equation 3 describes gain drift using the box method.
Gain Drift (ppm/°C) = (GEMAX – GEMIN) / (TMAX – TMIN
)
(3)
where:
•
•
GEMAX and GEMIN = Maximum and minimum gain errors over the specified temperature range
TMAX and TMIN = Maximum and minimum temperatures
7.5 NMRR Measurement
Normal-mode rejection ratio (NMRR) specifies the ability of the ADC to reject normal-mode input signals at
specific frequencies, usually expressed at 50-Hz and 60-Hz input frequencies. Normal-mode rejection is uniquely
determined by the frequency response of the digital filter. In this case, the nulls in the frequency response of the
low-latency sinc3 filter option located at 50 Hz and 60 Hz provide rejection at these frequencies.

7.6 CMRR Measurement
Common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) specifies the ability of the ADC to reject common-mode input signals.
CMRR is expressed as dc and ac parameters. For measurement of CMRR (dc), three common-mode test
voltages equal to AVSS + 50 mV, (AVDD1 + AVSS) / 2, and AVDD1 – 50 mV are applied with the inputs
externally shorted together. The maximum change of the ADC offset voltage is recorded versus the change in
common-mode test voltage. Equation 4 shows how CMRR (dc) is computed.
CMRR (dc) (dB) = 20 · log(ΔVCM / ΔVOS
)
(4)
where:
•
•
ΔVCM = Change of dc common-mode test voltage
ΔVOS = Change of corresponding offset voltage
For the measurement of CMRR (ac), an ac common-mode signal is applied at various test frequencies at 95%
full-scale range. An FFT is computed from the ADC data with the common-mode signal applied. As shown in
Equation 5, the nine largest amplitude spurious frequencies in the frequency spectrum are summed as powers
and related to the amplitude of the common-mode test signal.
PSRR (ac) (dB) = 20 · log(VCM / VO)
(5)
where:
•
•
VCM (RMS) = Common-mode input signal amplitude
2
VO (RMS) = Root-sum-square amplitude of spurious frequencies = √(V0 2 + V1 2 + ...V8
)
7.7 PSRR Measurement
Power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) specifies the ability of the ADC to reject power-supply interference. PSRR is
expressed as ac and dc parameters. For measurement of PSRR (dc), the power-supply voltage is changed over
the range of minimum, nominal, and maximum specified voltages with the inputs externally shorted together. The
maximum change of ADC offset voltage is recorded versus the change in power-supply voltage. PSRR (dc) is
computed as shown in Equation 6 as the ratio of change of the power-supply voltage step to the change of offset
voltage.
PSRR (dc) (dB) = 20 · log(ΔVPS / ΔVOS
)
(6)
where:
•
•
ΔVPS = Change of power-supply voltage
ΔVOS = Change of offset voltage
For the measurement of PSRR (ac), the power-supply voltage is modulated by a 100-mVpp (35 mVRMS) signal
at various test frequencies. An FFT of the ADC data with power-supply modulation is performed. As shown in
Equation 7, the nine largest amplitude spurious frequencies in the frequency spectrum are summed as powers
and related to the amplitude of the power-supply modulation signal.
PSRR (ac) (dB) = 20 · log(VPS / VO)
(7)
where:
•
•
VPS (RMS) = 100 mV ac power-supply modulation signal
2
VO (RMS) = Root-sum-square amplitude of spurious frequencies = √(V0 2 + V1 2 + ...V8
)

7.8 SNR Measurement
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a measure of noise performance with a full-scale ac input signal. For the SNR
measurement, a –0.2-dBFS, 1-kHz test signal is used with VCM equal to the mid-supply voltage. As shown in
Equation 8, SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the input signal to the root-sum-square of all other frequency
components derived from the FFT result of the ADC output samples. DC and harmonics of the original signal
are excluded from the SNR calculation. In a test case where an FFT window function is used because of
non-coherent sampling, the spectral leakage of adjacent frequency bins surrounding dc, the original signal and
signal harmonics are removed to calculate SNR.
SNR (dB) = 20 · log(VIN / en)
(8)
where:
•
•
VIN = Input test signal
en = Root-sum-square of frequency components excluding dc and signal harmonics
7.9 INL Error Measurement
Integral nonlinearity (INL) error specifies the linearity of the ADC dc transfer function. INL is measured by
applying a series of dc test voltages along a straight line computed from the slope and offset transfer function
of the ADC. INL is the difference between a set of dc test voltages [VIN(N)] to the corresponding set of output
voltages [VOUT(N)]. Equation 9 shows the end-point method of calculating INL error.
INL (ppm of FSR) = maximum absolute value of INL test series [106 · (VIN(N) – VOUT(N)) / FSR]
(9)
where:
•
•
•
•
N = Index of dc test voltage
[VIN(N)] = Set of test voltages over the range –95% to 95% of FSR
[VOUT(N)] = Set of corresponding ADC output voltages
FSR (full-scale range) = 2 · VREF (1x input range) or 4 · VREF (2x input range)
The INL best-fit method uses a least-squared error (LSE) calculation to determine a new straight line to minimize
the root-sum-square of the INL errors above and below the original end-point line.
7.10 THD Measurement
Total harmonic distortion (THD) specifies the dynamic linearity of the ADC with an ac input signal. For the THD
measurement, a –0.2-dBFS, 1-kHz differential input signal with VCM equal to the mid-supply voltage is applied.
A sufficient number of data points are collected to yield an FFT result with frequency bin widths of 5 Hz or less.
The 5-Hz bin width reduces the noise in the harmonic bins for consistent THD measurements. As shown in
Equation 10, THD is calculated as the ratio of the root-sum-square amplitude of harmonics to the input signal
amplitude.
THD (dB) = 20 · log(VH / VIN)
(10)
where:
•
•
VH = Root-sum-square of harmonics: √(V2 2+V3 2+ ...Vn 2), where Vn = Ninth harmonic voltage
VIN = Input signal fundamental

7.11 SFDR Measurement
Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is the ratio of the rms value of a single-tone ac input to the highest
spurious signal in the ADC frequency spectrum. SFDR measurement includes harmonics of the original signal.
For the SFDR measurement, a –0.2-dBFS, 1-kHz input signal with VCM equal to the mid-supply voltage is
applied. As shown in Equation 11, SFDR is the ratio of the rms values of the input signal to the single highest
spurious signal, including harmonics of the original signal.
SFDR (dB) = 20 · log(VIN / VSPUR
)
(11)
where:
•
•
VIN = Input test signal
VSPUR = Single highest spurious level
7.12 Noise Performance
The ADC provides two operational speed modes (high speed and low speed) that allow trade-offs between ADC
resolution, power consumption, and signal bandwidth. Low-speed mode operates the modulator at 1/8th speed
for decreased device power consumption and, as a result, the output data rates are reduced by 1/8th. The
programmable oversampling ratio (OSR) determines the output data rate and associated signal bandwidth, and
therefore also determines the total noise performance. Increasing the OSR lowers the signal bandwidth and total
noise by averaging more samples from the modulator to yield one conversion result.
The wideband filter provides data rates up to 400 kSPS in high-speed mode and 50 kSPS in low-speed mode.
The low-latency sinc4 filter provides data rates up to 1.067 MSPS in high-speed mode and up to 133 kSPS in
low-speed mode. The low-latency filter provides the options of sinc4, sinc4 + sinc1, sinc3, and sinc3 + sinc1
configurations.
Table 7-1 through Table 7-5 summarize the noise performance and signal bandwidth of the various filter modes.
Noise performance is shown with 1x input range and a 4.096-V reference voltage. In comparison, decreasing the
reference voltage to 2.5 V decreases dynamic range by 4 dB (typical). Operation in 2x input range and a 2.5-V
reference voltage decreases dynamic range by 3 dB (typical) compared to 1x input range and 4.096-V reference
voltage operation.
The noise data are the result of the standard deviation (rms) of the conversion data with inputs shorted and
biased to the mid-supply voltage and are representative of typical performance at TA = 25°C. A minimum of
1,000 or 10 seconds of consecutive conversions (whichever occurs first) are used to measure RMS noise (en).
Because of the statistical nature of noise, repeated noise measurements can yield higher or lower noise results.
Equation 12 converts RMS noise to dynamic range (dB) and Equation 13 converts RMS noise to effective
resolution (bits).
Dynamic Range (dB) = 20 · log[FSR / (2 · √2 · en)]
Effective Resolution (bits) = log2(FSR / en)
(12)
(13)
where:
•
•
•
FSR = 2 · VREF (1x input range)
FSR = 4 · VREF (2x input range)
en = Noise voltage (RMS)
When evaluating ADC noise performance, consider the effect of external buffer and amplifier noise to the total
noise performance. The noise performance of the ADC can be evaluated in isolation by selecting the input short
test connection of the input multiplexer.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The ADS127L11 is a high performance, 24-bit delta-sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) offering an
excellent combination of dc accuracy and ac precision. The device is optimized to provide high resolution with
low power consumption. Integrated input and reference precharge buffers simplify the driver requirements. The
digital filter consists of two programmable modes: low-latency mode (typically used for measurement of dc
signals) and wideband mode (typically used for measurement of ac signals).
The delta-sigma modulator produces low-resolution, high-frequency data proportional to the signal magnitude.
Noise shaping within the modulator shifts the quantization noise of the low-resolution data to an out-of-band
frequency range where the noise is removed by the digital filter. The noise remaining within the pass band is
white, which is reduced by the digital filter. The digital filter simultaneously decimates and filters the modulator
data to provide the high-resolution final output data.
The Functional Block Diagram shows the features of the ADS127L11. The modulator is a third-order, multibit
delta-sigma design that measures the differential input signal, VIN = (VAINP – VAINN), against the differential
reference, VREF = (VREFP – VREFN). Input and positive reference precharge buffers reduce the bandwidth and
driving requirements of the external input driver. The VCM output provides a buffered mid-supply voltage to drive
the common-mode voltage of an external driver stage.
The digital filter offers two modes of operation: the low-latency filter and the wideband filter. The low-latency filter
is programmable to sinc4, sinc4 + sinc1, sinc3, and sinc3 + sinc1 modes, allowing optimization between noise
performance and latency. The sinc3 + sinc1 filter provides rejection at 400 Hz, 60 Hz, 50 Hz, and 16.6 Hz. The
wideband filter is a multi-tap finite impulse response (FIR) design providing outstanding frequency response with
low pass-band ripple, steep transition-band, and high stop-band attenuation. Programmable oversampling ratio
(OSR) and two speed modes allow optimized choices of bandwidth, resolution, and device power consumption.
The SPI-compatible serial interface is used to configure the device and read conversion data. The interface
features daisy-chaining capability for convenient connection of multichannel, simultaneous-sampled systems.
Integrated cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error monitoring improves system-level reliability. DRDY is the
conversion data-ready output signal.
The device supports external clock operation for ac or dc applications, and internal oscillator operation for dc
applications. The START pin synchronizes the digital filter process. The RESET pin resets the ADC.
Supply voltage AVDD1 powers the precharge buffers and the input sampling switches. AVDD2 powers the
modulator via an internal regulator (CAPA). Supply voltage IOVDD is the digital I/O voltage that also powers the
digital core via an internal regulator (CAPD). The internal regulators minimize overall power consumption and
provide consistent levels of performance.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Analog Input (AINP, AINN)
The analog input of the ADC is differential, with the input defined as a difference voltage: VIN = VAINP – VAINN
.
For best performance, drive the input with a differential signal with the common-mode voltage centered to
mid-supply (AVDD1 + AVSS) / 2.
The ADC can accept either unipolar or bipolar input signals by configuring AVDD1 and AVSS accordingly. Figure
8-1 shows an example of a differential signal with the supplies configured to unipolar operation. Symmetric input
voltage headroom is available when the common-mode voltage is at mid-supply (AVDD1 / 2). Use AVDD1 = 5 V
and AVSS = 0 V for unipolar operation (AVDD1 can be reduced to 3 V in low-speed mode). The VCM output
provides a buffered common-mode voltage to level-shift the output voltage in the external driver stage. Figure
8-2 shows an example of a differential signal configured for bipolar operation. The common-mode voltage of the
signal is normally at 0 V. Use AVDD1 and AVSS = ±2.5 V for bipolar operation (AVDD and AVSS can be reduced
to ±1.5 V in low-speed mode).

In both bipolar and unipolar power-supply configurations, the ADC can accept single-ended input signals by tying
the AINN input to AVSS or ground, or to mid-supply. However, because AINN is now a fixed voltage, the voltage
range of the ADC is limited by the input swing range of AINP (±2.5 V or 0 V to 5 V for a 5-V supply).
The simplified circuit of Figure 8-3 represents the analog input structure.

Diodes protect the ADC inputs from electrostatic discharge (ESD) events that occur during the manufacturing
process and during printed circuit board (PCB) assembly when manufactured in an ESD-controlled environment.
If the inputs are driven below AVSS – 0.3 V, or above AVDD1 + 0.3 V, the protection diodes may conduct. If
these conditions are possible, use external clamp diodes, series resistors, or both to limit the input current to the
specified value.
The input multiplexer offers the option of normal or reverse input signal polarities. The multiplexer also provides
two internal test modes to help verify ADC performance. The offset test mode is used to verify noise and offset
error by providing a short to the ADC inputs. The resulting noise and offset voltage data are evaluated by the
user. CMRR performance is tested using the CMRR test mode by applying a CMRR test signal to the AINP
input. The resulting CMRR test data are also evaluated by the user. Table 8-1 shows the switch configurations of
the input multiplexer circuit of Figure 8-3.

The device has optional input precharge buffers to reduce the charge required by capacitor CIN during the
input sampling phase. When the capacitor is near full charge, the precharge buffers are bypassed (S7 and S8
of Figure 8-3 in up positions). The external signal driver then provides the fine charge to the capacitor. At the
completion of the sample phase, the sampling capacitor is discharged by the modulator to complete the cycle,
at which time the sample process repeats. The buffers reduce the transient input current required to charge
CIN, therefore reducing the settling time requirement of the signal. Incomplete settling of the input signal can
lead to degraded ADC performance. The input buffers are enabled by the AINP_BUF and AINN_BUF bits of
the CONFIG1 register. In many cases, if AINN is tied to ground or to a low-impedance fixed potential, the AINN
buffer can be disabled to reduce power consumption.
With the input precharge buffers disabled, the charge required by the input sampling capacitor can be modeled
as an average input current flowing into the ADC inputs. As shown in Equation 14 and Equation 15, the input
current is comprised of differential and absolute components.
Input Current (Differential Input Voltage) = fMOD · CIN · 106 (μA/V)
(14)
(15)
where:
•
•
fMOD = fCLK / 2 = 12.8 MHz (high-speed mode), 1.6 MHz (low-speed mode)
CIN = 7.4 pF (1x input range), 3.6 pF (2x input range)
Input Current (Absolute Input Voltage) = fMOD·CCM · 106 (μA/V)
where:
•
•
fMOD = fCLK / 2 = 12.8 MHz (high-speed mode), 1.6 MHz (low-speed mode)
CCM = 0.35 pF (1x input range), 0.17 pF (2x input range)
For fMOD = 12.8 MHz, CIN = 7.4 pF, and CCM = 0.35 pF, the input current resulting from differential voltage is
95 μA/V and the input current resulting from the absolute voltage is 4.5 μA/V. For example, if AINP = 4.5 V and
AINN = 0.5 V, then VIN = 4 V. The total AINP input current = (4 V · 95 μA/V) + (4.5 V · 4.5 μA/V) = 400 μA, and
the total AINN current is (–4 V · 95 μA/V) + (0.5 V · 4.5 μA/V) = –378 μA.
The charge demand of the input sampling capacitor requires the signal to settle within a half cycle at the
modulator frequency t = 1 / (2 · fMOD). To satisfy this requirement, the driver bandwidth is typically required
to be much larger than the original signal frequency. The bandwidth of the driver can be determined to be
sufficient when the THD and SNR data sheet performance are achieved. In the low-speed mode of operation,
the modulator sampling is eight times slower, therefore more time is available for driver settling.

8.3.1.1 Input Range
The ADC has two programmable input ranges: 1x and 2x, where the 1x range is defined by VIN = ±VREF and
the 2x range is defined by VIN = ±2 · VREF. The 2x input range doubles the available range when using a
reference voltage = 2.5 V or less. The 2x input range typically improves SNR by +1 dB, but this requires driving
the inputs to the 5-V supply rails to achieve full SNR when using a 2.5-V reference voltage. The best available
SNR performance (4 dB improvement typical) is by using a 4.096-V or 5-V reference voltage (be sure to program
the ADC to the high-reference range mode). The 2x range operation is internally forced to the 1x range mode
when the high-reference range is selected. See the CONFIG1 register to program the input range. Table 8-2
summarizes the ADC input range options.
Table 8-2. ADC Input Range
INP_RNG BIT(1)
INPUT RANGE (V)
0
1
±VREF
±2·VREF
(1) The input range is forced to 1x when the high-reference range is
selected.
In some cases, the full available input range is limited by the power supply voltage. For example, the input range
exceeds the power supply voltage when using a 3-V power supply with a 2.5-V reference voltage in the 2x range
mode.
The ADC also provides the option of extending the input range beyond standard full-scale range. In this mode,
the input range is extended by 25% to provide signal headroom before clipping of the signal occurs. Output data
are scaled such that the positive and negative full-scale output codes (7FFFFFh and 800000h) are at ±1.25 · k ·
VREF, where k is the 1x or 2x input range option.
The SNR performance degrades when the signal exceeds 110% standard full-scale range because of modulator
saturation. The modulator MOD_FLAG bit of the STATUS register indicates when modulator saturation occurs.
Figure 8-4 shows SNR performance when operating in the extended range. See the CONFIG2 register to
program the extended range mode.

8.3.2 Reference Voltage (REFP, REFN)
A reference voltage is required for operation. The reference voltage input is differential, defined as: VREF = VREFP
– VREFN, and applied to the REFP and REFN inputs. See the Reference Voltage Range section for details of the
reference voltage operating range.
As shown in Figure 8-5, the reference inputs have an input structure similar to the analog inputs. ESD diodes
protect the reference inputs. To keep these diodes from turning on, make sure the voltages on the reference
pins do not go below AVSS by more than 0.3 V, or above AVDD1 by 0.3 V. If these conditions are possible, use
external clamp diodes, series resistors, or both to limit the input current to the specified value.

Figure 8-5. Reference Input Circuit
The reference voltage is sampled by a sampling capacitor CREF. In unbuffered mode, current flows through the
reference inputs to charge the sampling capacitor. The current consists of a dc component and an ac component
that varies with the frequency of the modulator sampling clock. See the Electrical Characteristics table for the
reference input current specification.
The effect of charging the reference sampling capacitor requires the external reference driver to settle at the
end of the sample phase t = 1 / (2 · fMOD). Incomplete settling of the reference voltage can lead to excessive
gain error and gain error drift. Operation in low-speed mode reduces the modulator sampling clock frequency by
1/8th, therefore allowing more time for the reference driver to settle.
The ADC provides a precharge buffer option for the REFP input to reduce the charge drawn by the sampling
capacitor. The precharge buffer provides the coarse charge for the reference sampling capacitor CREF. Halfway
through the sample phase, the precharge buffer is bypassed (S1 is in an up position as demonstrated in Figure
8-5), at which time the external driver provides the fine charge to the sampling capacitor. Because the buffer
reduces the charge demand of the sampling capacitor, the bandwidth requirement of the external driver is greatly
reduced.
Many applications either ground REFN, or connect REFN to AVSS. A precharge buffer for REFN is not
necessary for these cases. For applications when REFN is not a low impedance source, consider buffering
the REFN input.
8.3.2.1 Reference Voltage Range
The operation of the ADC is optimized by separating the reference voltage into two operating ranges: low-
reference range and high-reference range. The reference voltage range must be programmed to match the
applied reference voltage, such as 2.5 V or 4.096 V. The low-reference operating range is 0.5 V to 2.75 V, and
the high-reference operating range is 1 V up to the AVDD1 – AVSS power supplies. For best performance where
the ranges overlap, such as reference voltage = 2.5 V, use the low-reference range. Program the REF_RNG bit
of the CONFIG1 register to the appropriate reference range to match the applied reference voltage. When the
high-reference range is selected, the input range is internally forced to 1x.

8.3.3 Clock Operation
Figure 8-6 shows the block diagram of the internal clock circuit. The ADC can be operated by an external clock
or the internal oscillator. The nominal value of fCLK is 25.6 MHz in high-speed mode and 3.2 MHz in low-speed
mode. A divide-by-eight option is available at the CLK input to divide the high-speed mode clock frequency to
provide the low-speed mode clock frequency. The clock frequency is divided by two to derive the modulator
sampling clock (fMOD).

8.3.3.1 Internal Oscillator
At power-up and after reset, the ADC defaults to internal oscillator mode (CLK_SEL bit = 0b). The frequency
of the internal oscillator automatically scales to high-speed or low-speed operation. Because of the clock
jitter associated with internal oscillator, only use the internal oscillator for dc signal measurements. AC signal
measurement is not recommended when using the internal oscillator.
8.3.3.2 External Clock
To operate the ADC with an external clock, apply the clock signal to the CLK pin, then program the CLK_SEL
bit to 1b. A divide-by-eight option is available to operate the ADC in low-speed mode using the high-speed mode
clock frequency (set the CLK_DIV bit = 1b). The clock can be decreased from nominal to yield specific data rates
between the integer OSR values. However, the conversion noise when operating at the reduced clock frequency
is the same as the higher clock frequency. Reducing the conversion noise is only possible by increasing the
OSR value or changing the filter mode.
Clock jitter results in timing variations in the modulator sampling that leads to degraded SNR performance. A
low-jitter clock is essential to meet data sheet SNR performance. For example, with a 200-kHz signal frequency,
an external clock with < 10-ps (rms) jitter is required. For lower signal frequencies, the clock jitter requirement
can be relaxed by –20 dB per decade of signal frequency. For example, with fIN = 20 kHz, a clock with 100-ps
jitter can be used. Many types of RC oscillators exhibit high levels of jitter and should be avoided for ac signal
measurement. Instead, use a crystal-based clock oscillator as the clock source. Avoid ringing on the clock input.
A series resistor placed at the output of the clock buffer often helps reduce ringing.
8.3.4 Modulator
The ADS127L11 uses a switched-capacitor, third-order, singe-loop modulator with a 5-bit internal quantizer. This
modulator topology achieves excellent noise and linearity performance while consuming very low power. As with
most high-order modulators driven by high amplitude out-of-band signals, modulator saturation can occur. When
saturated, the in-band signal still converts, however the noise floor increases. Figure 8-7 illustrates the amplitude
limit of out-of-band signals to avoid modulator saturation. The limit of dc and in-band signal amplitudes are 1 dB
above standard full scale.

Figure 8-7. Amplitude Limit to Avoid Modulator Saturation
Modulator saturation is indicated by the MOD_FLAG bit of the STATUS register. The modulator saturation
status is latched during the conversion period and is refreshed at completion of the next conversion. Modulator
saturation resulting from out-of-band signals can be avoided by using an antialias filter at the ADC inputs. The
Typical Application section describes an example of a fourth-order antialias filter, however a low-order filter can
be used with equal effect provided the amplitude is below the saturation limit.
8.3.5 Digital Filter
The digital filter low-pass filters and decimates the low-resolution, high-speed data from the modulator to
produce high-resolution, low-speed output data. The programmable oversampling ratio (OSR) determines the
amount of filtering that affects signal bandwidth and conversion noise, and the final data rate through decimation.
The output data rate is defined by: fDATA = fMOD / OSR.
The ADC offers the choice of two filter modes: wideband and low latency. The filter mode selection optimizes
either the frequency response characteristics (wideband filter mode) or the time domain characteristics (low-
latency filter mode).
8.3.5.1 Wideband Filter
The wideband filter is a multistage FIR filter design featuring linear phase response, low pass-band
ripple, narrow transition band, and high stop-band attenuation. Because of the superior frequency response
characteristics, the filter is well suited for measuring ac signals. The ADC provides eight programmable
oversampling ratios (OSR) and two speed modes, offering a range of data rate and resolution to select from.
Figure 8-8 through Figure 8-12 illustrate the frequency response of the wideband filter. Figure 8-8 shows the
pass-band ripple. Figure 8-9 shows the detailed frequency response at the transition band.

Figure 8-10 shows the frequency response to fDATA for OSR ≥ 64. The stop band begins at fDATA / 2 to prevent
aliasing at the Nyquist frequency. Figure 8-11 shows the stop-band attenuation to fMOD for OSR = 32. In the
stop-band region, out-of-band input frequencies intermodulate with multiples of the chop frequency at fMOD / 32,
creating a pattern of response peaks that exceed the stop-band attenuation of the digital filter. The width of the
response peaks is twice the filter bandwidth. Stop-band attenuation is improved when used in conjunction with
an antialias filter at the ADC input. See the Typical Application section for details of a fourth-order antialias filter.

The group delay of the filter is the time for an input signal to propagate from the input to the output of the filter.
Because the filter is a linear-phase design, the envelope of a complex input signal is undistorted by the filter. The
group delay (expressed in units of time) is constant versus frequency equal to the value = 34 / fDATA. After a step
input is applied, fully settled data occur at 68 data periods later. Figure 8-13 illustrates the filter group delay (34 /
fDATA) and the settling time to a step input (68 / fDATA).

Figure 8-13. Wideband Filter Step Response
The digital filter is restarted when the ADC is synchronized. The ADC suppresses the first 68 conversion periods
until the filter is fully settled. There is no need to discard data after synchronization. The time of data suppression
is the conversion latency time as listed in the latency time column of Table 8-3. A 0.4-μs fixed overhead time is
incurred for all data rates. If a step input occurs asynchronous to the conversion period without synchronizing,
then the next 69 conversions are partially settled data.

8.3.5.2 Low-Latency Filter (Sinc)
The low-latency filter is a cascaded-integrator-comb (CIC) topology that minimizes the delay (latency) as the
conversion data propagates through the filter. The CIC filter is otherwise known as a sinc filter because of
the characteristic sinx/x (sinc) frequency response. The latency time is shorter compared to the wideband
filter, making the filter suitable for fast acquisition of dc signals. The device offers the choice of four sinc filter
configurations: sinc4, sinc4 + sinc1, sinc3, and sinc3 + sinc1 to provide trade-offs of acquisition time, noise
performance, and line-cycle rejection.
Latency is defined as the time from synchronization to the falling edge of DRDY, at which time, fully settled data
are available. There is no need to discard data because the unsettled data are suppressed by the ADC. Detailed
latency data for each sinc filter mode are given in Table 8-5 through Table 8-8.

If the input is changed without synchronization, then the next conversion data are partially settled. The number
of conversions required for fully settled data in this case is found by rounding the latency time value to the next
whole number of conversion periods.
Equation 17 is the general expression of the sinc-filter frequency response. For single-stage sinc filter options
(for example, the single-stage sinc3 or sinc4 filter), the second stage is not used.

8.3.5.2.1 Sinc4 Filter
The sinc4 filter averages and decimates the high-speed modulator data to yield data rates from 1066.6 kSPS
to 3.125 kSPS in high-speed mode, and data rates from 133.333 kSPS to 0.390625 kSPS in low-speed mode.
Increasing the OSR value decreases the data rate and simultaneously reduces signal bandwidth and total noise
resulting from increased decimation and data averaging.
Because of the reduced amount of data averaging performed in the filtering process for OSR values = 12, 16
and 24, the output resolution of the corresponding data rates is reduced. Table 8-4 summarizes the output data
resolution for these OSR values.

Figure 8-14 and Figure 8-15 show the sinc4 filter frequency response at OSR = 32. The frequency response
consists of a series of response nulls occurring at discrete frequencies. The null frequencies occur at multiples of
fDATA. At the null frequencies, the filter has zero gain. A folded image of the overall frequency response appears
at multiples of fMOD, as illustrated in the fMOD frequency plot of Figure 8-15. No attenuation is provided by the
filter at input frequencies near n · fMOD (n = 1, 2, 3, and so on), and if present, alias into the pass band.

Figure 8-16 shows the frequency response of the sinc4 + sinc1 filter for three values of OSR. The combined
frequency response is the overlay of the sinc1 filter with the sinc4 filter. For low values of OSR, the response

and so on. At the null frequencies, the filter has zero gain.

8.3.5.2.3 Sinc3 Filter
The sinc3 filter mode is a single-stage filter. Relatively high values of OSR provide line-cycle rejection with
data rates = 480 SPS, 400 SPS, 60 SPS, and 50 SPS. Because of the large width of the frequency response
notch, excellent line-frequency NMRR and CMRR can be achieved with this filter. Table 8-7 summarizes the
characteristics of the sinc3 filter.

8.3.6 Power Supplies
The device has three analog power-supply pins (AVDD1, AVSS, and AVDD2) and one digital power-supply pin
(IOVDD). The power supplies can be sequenced in any order and are tolerant of slow or fast power-supply
voltage ramp rates. However, in no case must any analog or digital input exceed the respective AVDD1 and
AVSS (analog) or IOVDD (digital) power supply.
8.3.6.1 AVDD1 and AVSS
AVDD1 and AVSS power the precharge buffers and the internal sampling switches. The ADC can be configured
either for bipolar input operation (such as using ±2.5-V power supplies), or for unipolar input operation (such as
AVDD1 = 5 V and AVSS = DGND). Use a parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF bypass capacitors across the
AVDD1 supply voltage and the AVSS pin, with a 3-Ω series resistor placed in series between the capacitors and
the AVDD1 pin. Place the resistor and capacitors as close as possible to the AVDD1 pin.
8.3.6.2 AVDD2
AVDD2 is with respect to AVSS and powers the modulator core. AVDD2 can be connected to AVDD1 to simplify
the required supply voltages, or AVDD2 can be operated by a lower supply voltage to minimize device power
consumption. Use a combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF bypass capacitors across the AVDD2 to AVSS supply pins.
Table 8-9 shows examples of AVDD1, AVSS, and AVDD2 power-supply configurations.

power to the digital core. Bypass IOVDD to DGND with a parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF capacitors.
The voltage level of IOVDD is independent of the analog supply configuration.

8.3.6.4 Power-On Reset (POR)
The ADC uses power-supply monitors to detect power-up and supply brownout events. Power-up or power-
cycling of the IOVDD digital supply results in device reset. Power-up or power-cycling of the analog power
supplies does not reset the ADC.
Figure 8-21 shows the digital power-on thresholds of the IOVDD and the internal CAPD voltages. When the
voltages are above their respective thresholds, the ADC is released from reset. DRDY later transitions high
when the SPI is ready for communication. If the START pin is high, the ADC immediately begins conversions
with the DRDY pin pulsing for each conversion. However, valid conversion data only occur after the power
supplies and reference voltage are stabilized. The POR_FLAG bit of the STATUS register indicates the device
POR. Write 1b to clear the bit in order to detect the next POR event.

supply voltage conditions (AVDD1 – DGND), (AVDD1 – AVSS), (AVDD2 – AVSS), and (CAPA – AVSS). Valid
conversion data are available after all power supplies and the reference voltage are stabilized after power-on.
The ALV_FLAG bit of the STATUS register sets when any analog power voltage falls below the respective
threshold. Write 1b to clear the bit to detect the next analog supply low-voltage condition. Power cycling the
analog power supplies does not reset the ADC. Because a low voltage on the IOVDD supply also resets the
internal analog LDO (CAPA), the analog low-voltage flag (ALV_FLAG) is also set.

CAPA and CAPD are the output voltages of the internal analog and digital voltage regulators. The regulators
are used to reduce the supply voltage to operate internal sub-circuits and are not designed to drive external
loads. CAPA is the analog regulator voltage output and is powered from AVDD2. The output voltage is 1.6 V
with respect to AVSS. Bypass CAPA with a 1-µF capacitor to AVSS. CAPD is the digital regulator voltage output,

powered from IOVDD. The regulator output is 1.25 V with respect to DGND. Bypass CAPD with a 1-µF capacitor
to DGND.
8.3.7 VCM Output Voltage
The VCM pin provides a buffered output voltage at the mid-point of the AVDD1 – AVSS power supply. The
VCM voltage is intended to drive the output common-mode control input of a fully differential amplifier (FDA)
to establish the common-mode voltage for the ADC input signal. With many types of FDAs, the same common-
mode voltage is provided when the common-mode control input of these devices are floated when using the
same power supply. If VCM is not used, the pin can be left unconnected. The VCM output is enabled by the
VCM bit of the CONFIG1 register.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Power-Scalable Speed Modes
The ADC offers two power-scalable speed modes that determine the range of conversion data rates and power
consumed by the ADC. The modes allow optimization of signal bandwidth, data rate, and power consumption.
High-speed mode provides maximum data rate and signal bandwidth, and low-speed mode minimizes power
consumption for applications that do not require large signal bandwidths. The ADC clock frequency must be
adapted to the operating mode. For high-speed mode the clock frequency is 25.6 MHz, and for low-speed mode
the clock frequency is 3.2 MHz (see the Clock Operation section for the internal clock divider option). The speed
mode is programmed by the SPEED_MODE bit of the CONFIG2 register.
8.4.2 Idle Mode
When conversions are stopped, the ADC can be programmed to remain in a full-powered idle mode or enter
a low-power standby mode. In idle mode, the analog circuit remains fully operational, including sampling of the
signal and voltage reference inputs. Only the digital filter is forced inactive. When conversions are restarted,
the digital filter is reactivated to begin the conversion process. Idle mode (default) is programmed by the
STBY_MODE bit of the CONFIG2 register.
8.4.3 Standby Mode
The ADC has the option of engaging the standby mode when conversions are stopped. Standby mode is an
automatic power-down mode enabled by the STBY_MODE bit of the CONFIG2 register. Standby is entered
and exited when conversions stop and start, respectively. During standby, sampling of the signal and reference
voltage are stopped. When conversions are restarted, sampling of the signal and reference voltages resume.
Exiting standby mode requires an additional 24 clock cycles to the normal conversion latency time.
8.4.4 Power-Down Mode
Power-down mode is engaged by setting the PWDN bit of the CONFIG2 register. In power-down mode, the
analog and digital sections are powered off, except for a small bias current required to maintain SPI operation
needed to exit power-down mode by clearing the register bit. The digital LDO also remains active to maintain
user register settings. The sampling of the signal and voltage reference are stopped during power-down mode.
Exit power-down mode by writing 0b to the PWDN bit or by resetting the device.
8.4.5 Reset
The ADC performs an automatic reset at power-on and can also be manually reset by the RESET pin or SPI
operation. At reset the control logic, digital filter, and SPI restart and the user registers reset to the default
values. See Figure 6-3 for details when the ADC is available for operation after reset.
8.4.5.1 RESET Pin
The RESET pin is an active low input. The ADC is reset by taking RESET low then back high. Because the
RESET pin has an internal 20-kΩ pullup resistor, RESET can be left unconnected if not used. The RESET pin is
a Schmitt-triggered input designed to reduce noise sensitivity. See Figure 6-3 for RESET pin timing and for the
start of SPI communications after reset. Because the ADC performs an automatic reset at power-on, a reset is
not required after device power-on.

8.4.5.2 Reset by SPI Register Write
The device is reset through SPI operation by writing 01011000b to the CONTROL register. Writing any other
value to this register does not result in reset. In 4-wire SPI mode, reset takes effect at the end of the frame at the
time CS is taken high. In 3-wire SPI mode, reset takes effect on the last falling edge of SCLK of the register write
operation. Reset in 3-wire SPI mode requires that the SPI is synchronized to the SPI host. If SPI synchronization
is not assured, use the pattern described in the Reset by SPI Input Pattern section to reset the device. Reset can
be validated by checking the POR_FLAG of the STATUS register.
8.4.5.3 Reset by SPI Input Pattern
The device is also reset through SPI operation by inputting a special bit pattern. The input pattern does not
follow the input command format. There are two input patterns in which to reset the ADC. Pattern 1 consists of a
minimum 1023 consecutive ones followed by one zero. The device resets on the falling edge of SCLK when the
final zero is shifted in. This pattern can be used for either 3- or 4-wire SPI modes. Figure 8-23 shows a pattern 1
reset example.

are connected in daisy-chain mode. Figure 8-24 shows a pattern 2 reset example.

8.4.6 Synchronization
Conversions are synchronized and controlled by the START pin or, optionally, through SPI operation. If
controlling conversions through SPI operation, keep the START pin low to avoid contention with the pin. Writing
to any register from 04h through 0Eh causes the conversion to restart, thus resulting in loss of synchronization.
Resynchronization of the ADC may be necessary in this case.
The ADC has three modes to synchronize and control conversions: synchronized, start/stop, and one-
shot modes, each with specific functionalities. Program the selected mode of synchronization by the
START_MODE[1:0] bits of the CONFIG2 register. Only the start/stop and one-shot control modes can be
controlled through SPI operation.
After the ADC is synchronized, the first conversion is fully settled data but incurs a delay (latency time)
compared to the normal data period. This latency is needed to account for full settling of the digital filter. The
latency time depends on the data rate and the filter mode (see the Digital Filter section for filter latency details).

8.4.6.1 Synchronized Control Mode
In synchronized control mode, the ADC converts continuously regardless if START is high or low. The ADC
is synchronized on the rising edge of START. When synchronized, the first DRDY falling edge is delayed to
account for the filter settling time (latency time). Both a single-pulse input and a continuous-clock input can be
applied to the START pin in this mode.
The ADC synchronizes at the rising edge of START. If the time to the next rising edge of START is an n multiple
of the conversion period, within a ±1 / fCLK window, the ADC does not resynchronize (n = 1, 2, 3, and so on).
Synchronization does not occur because the ADC conversion period is already synchronized to the period of
the START signal. If the period of the START signal is not an n multiple of the conversion period, the ADC
resynchronizes. As a result of the propagation delay of the digital filter, a phase difference exists between the
START signal and the DRDY output. Figure 8-25 shows synchronization to the START signal when the period of
START pulses is not equal to an n multiple of the conversion period.

Figure 8-25. Synchronized Control Mode
8.4.6.2 Start/Stop Control Mode
Start/stop control mode is a gate-control mode used to start and stop conversions. Conversions are started by
taking the START pin high or, if conversions are controlled through SPI operation, by writing 1b to the START
bit of the CONTROL register. Preclear the CONTROL register by writing 00h before setting the START bit.
Conversions continue until stopped by taking the START pin low, or by writing 1b to the STOP bit through SPI
operation. DRDY is driven high at conversion start and is driven low when each conversion data are ready. If
START is taken low or 1b is written to the STOP bit while conversions are in progress, the ongoing conversion
finishes as normal and then stops. (See Figure 6-4 for detailed START timing).
To restart an ongoing conversion, pulse START low to high, or write 1b to the START bit a second time. Figure
8-26 shows the START and DRDY operation. If conversions are stopped in standby mode, DRDY returns high
three clock cycles after falling low, otherwise DRDY remains low at which time it is forced high at the eighth
SCLK edge during conversion data readout. If data are not read, DRDY remains low and pulses high just before
the next DRDY falling edge.

8.4.6.3 One-Shot Control Mode
One-shot control mode initiates a single conversion when START is taken high or, through SPI operation, when
the START bit of the CONTROL register is set to 1b. DRDY drives high to indicate the conversion is started and
drives low when the conversion is complete. Data are available for readback at that time.
Taking START low, or writing 1b to the STOP bit, does not interrupt the ongoing conversion. The STOP bit has
no effect. To restart the conversion, pulse START low to high, or write 1b to the START bit a second time. Figure
8-27 shows the one-shot control mode operation. In standby mode, DRDY returns high three clock cycles after
transitioning low, otherwise DRDY remains low until forced high at the next rising edge of START.

8.4.7 Conversion-Start Delay Time
A programmable delay time is provided to delay the start of the conversion cycle after the START pin or START
bit is asserted. This delay time allows for settling of external components, such as the voltage reference after
exiting standby mode, or for additional settling time when switching the signal through an external multiplexer.
After the initial delay time, subsequent conversions are not delayed. The programmed value of this delay time
adds to the value of the conversion latency time of the digital filter. See the DELAY[2:0] bits of the CONFIG3
register for programming details.
8.4.8 Calibration
The ADS127L11 provides the ability to calibrate offset and gain errors by using user-programmable offset and
gain correction registers. As shown in Figure 8-28, the 24-bit offset correction value is subtracted from the
conversion data before being multiplied by the 24-bit gain correction value. Output data are rounded to the final
resolution (16- or 24-bit) and clipped to +FS and –FS code values after the scaling operation.

The offset calibration value is a 24-bit value consisting of three 8-bit registers coded in 2's-complement format.
The offset value is subtracted from the conversion data. Register 09h is the most-significant byte, register 0Ah
is the middle byte, and register 0Bh is the least-significant byte. If the ADC is programmed to provide 16-bit
resolution, the least-significant offset byte provides sub-LSB offset accuracy. Table 8-10 shows example offset

gain calibration value is less than 400000h. Table 8-11 shows example gain calibration values.

8.4.8.3 Calibration Procedure
The recommended calibration procedure is as follows:
1. Preset the offset and gain calibration registers to 000000h and 400000h, respectively.
2. Perform offset calibration by shorting the ADC inputs, or short the inputs at the system level to include the
offset error of the external amplifier stages. Acquire conversion data and write the average value of the
data to the offset calibration registers. Averaging the data reduces conversion noise to improve calibration
accuracy.
3. Perform gain calibration by applying a calibration signal to the ADC input or at the system level to include the
gain error of the external buffer stages. For the standard input range mode, choose the calibration voltage
to be less than the full-scale input range to avoid clipping the output code. Clipped output codes result in
inaccurate calibration. For example, use a 3.9-V calibration signal with VREF = 4.096 V. When operating in
the extended range mode, the calibration signal can be equal to VREF without causing clipped output codes.
Acquire conversion data and average the results. Use Equation 19 to calculate the gain calibration value.
Gain Calibration Value = (expected output code / actual output code) · 400000h
(19)
For example, the expected output code of a 3.9-V calibration voltage using a 4.096-V reference voltage is:
(3.9 V / 4.096 V) · 7FFFFFh = 79E000h.

8.5 Programming
8.5.1 Serial Interface (SPI)
The serial interface is used to read conversion data, configure device registers, and control ADC conversions.
The optional CRC mode is used to validate error-free data transmission between the host and ADC. A separate
CRC based on the register map is used to detect register map changes after the initial register data are loaded.
The serial interface consists of four lines: CS, SCLK, SDI, and SDO/DRDY. The interface operates in the
peripheral mode (passive) where SCLK is driven by the host. The interface is compatible to SPI mode 1 (CPOL
= 0 and CPHA = 1). In SPI mode 1, SCLK idles low, and data are updated on SCLK rising edges and read on
SCLK falling edges. The interface supports full-duplex operation, meaning input data and output data can be
transmitted simultaneously. The interface also supports daisy-chain connection of multiple ADCs to simplify the
SPI connection.
8.5.1.1 Chip Select (CS)
CS is an active-low input that enables the interface for communication. The communication frame is started by
taking CS low and is ended by taking CS high. When CS is taken high, the device ends the frame by interpreting
the last 16-bits of input data (24 bits in CRC mode) regardless of the total number of bits shifted in. When CS is
high, the SPI interface resets, commands are blocked, and SDO/DRDY enters a high-impedance state. DRDY is
an active output regardless of the state of CS. CS can be tied low to operate the interface in 3-wire SPI mode.
8.5.1.2 Serial Clock (SCLK)
SCLK is the serial clock input used to shift data into and out of the ADC. Output data are updated on the
rising edge of SCLK and input data are latched on the falling edge of SCLK. SCLK is a Schmitt-triggered input
designed to increase noise immunity. Even though SCLK is noise resistant, keep SCLK as noise-free as possible
to avoid unintentional SCLK transitions. Avoid ringing and overshoot on the SCLK input. A series termination
resistor at the SCLK driver can often reduce ringing.
8.5.1.3 Serial Data Input (SDI)
SDI is the serial interface data input. SDI is used to input data to the device. Input data are latched on the falling
edge of SCLK. SDI can be idled high or low when not active.
8.5.1.4 Serial Data Output/Data Ready (SDO/DRDY)
SDO/DRDY is a dual-function output pin. This pin is programmable to provide output data only, or to provide
output data and the data-ready indication. The dual-function mode multiplexes output data and data-ready
operations on a single pin. Output data are updated on the rising edge of SCLK. The SDO/DRDY pin is
in a high-Z state when CS is high. See the SDO/DRDY section for details of dual-function operation. The
SDO_MODE bit of the CONFIG2 register programs the mode.
8.5.2 SPI Frame
Communication through the serial interface is based on the concept of frames. A frame consists of a prescribed
number of SCLKs required to shift in or shift out data. A frame is started by taking CS low and is ended by
taking CS high. When CS is taken high, the device interprets the last 16 bits (or 24 bits in CRC mode) of input
data regardless of the amount of data shifted into the device. In typical use, the input frame is sized to match
the output frame by padding the frame with leading zeros if needed. However, if not transmitting and receiving
data in full-duplex mode, the input data frame can be the minimum size of 16 bits (or 24 bits in CRC mode).
The output frame size, as given in Table 8-12, depends on the programmed data resolution (16 or 24 bits) and
optional STATUS header and CRC bytes. After the ADC is powered up or reset, the default output frame size
is 24 bits. In 3-wire SPI mode, the input frame must match the size of the output frame for the SPI to remain
synchronized.

8.5.3 SPI CRC
The SPI cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an SPI check code used to detect transmission errors to and from
the host controller. A CRC byte is transmitted with the ADC input data by the host and a CRC byte is transmitted
with the output data by the ADC. The SPI CRC error check is enabled by the SPI_CRC bit of the CONFIG4
register.
The CRC code is calculated by the host on the two command bytes. Any input bytes padded to the start of
the frame are not included in the CRC calculation. The ADC checks the input command CRC code against an
internal code calculated over the two input command bytes. If the CRC codes do not match, the command is not
executed and the SPI_ERR bit is set in the STATUS byte. Register write operations are blocked except to the
STATUS register to allow clearing the SPI CRC error by writing 1b to the SPI_ERR bit. Register read operations
are not blocked unless an SPI_CRC error is detected in the immediately preceding register-read command
frame.
The number of bytes used to calculate the output CRC code depends on the amount of data bytes transmitted in

The CRC code calculation is the 8-bit remainder of the bitwise exclusive-OR (XOR) operation of the variable
length argument with the CRC polynomial. The CRC is based on the CRC-8-ATM (HEC) polynomial: X8 + X2
+ X1 + 1. The nine coefficients of the polynomial are: 100000111. The CRC calculation is initialized to all 1s to
detect errors in the event that SDI and SDO/DRDY have either failed low or failed high.
The following procedure is used to compute the CRC code value:
1. Left shift the initial data value by 8 bits, with eight logic 1s padded to the right, creating a new data value.
2. Align the MSB of the CRC polynomial (100000111) to the left-most, logic 1 of the data.
3. XOR the data value with the aligned CRC polynomial. The XOR operation creates a new, shorter-length
value. The bits of the data values that are not in alignment with the CRC polynomial drop down and append
to the right of the new XOR result.
4. If the XOR result is less than 100h, the procedure ends, yielding the 8-bit CRC code result. Otherwise,
continue with the XOR operation at step 2 using the current XOR result. The number of loop iterations
depend on the value of the initial data.

8.5.4 Register Map CRC
The register map CRC is used to check the register map contents for unintended changes. Write a new register
map CRC code to the CRC register whenever the registers are changed. The CRC code is calculated over
the 00h to 0Eh register addresses, skipping the 02h and 03h addresses (STATUS and CONTROL registers).
The ADC continuously compares the CRC code written to the CRC register to an internal value. If the values
do not match, the REG_ERR bit in the STATUS register is set. If set, correct the register values or update the
CRC code then write 1b to the bit to clear the error flag. No other action is taken by the ADC in the event
of a register map error. The register map CRC check is optional and is enabled by the REG_CRC bit of the
CONFIG4 register.
Read the REV_ID register of the individual ADC when calculating the CRC code because the REV_ID can
change during device production without notice. Set the REG_CRC bit to 1 (enabled) when calculating the CRC
code because this bit must be set to enable the CRC check. The register map CRC code computation is the
same as the one shown in the SPI CRC section.
8.5.5 Full-Duplex Operation
The serial interface supports full-duplex operation. Full-duplex operation allows the simultaneous transmission
and reception of data in one frame. For example, the register read command for the next register can be input
at the same time that data of the previously addressed register are output, which doubles the throughput when
reading multiple registers. An example of full-duplex operation is illustrated in Figure 8-30.
8.5.6 Device Commands
Commands are used to read and write register data. The register map of Table 8-16 consists of a series of
one-byte registers, accessible by read and write operations. The minimum frame length of the input command
sequence is two bytes (three bytes in CRC mode). If desired, the input command sequence can be padded
with leading zeros to match the length of the output data frame. In CRC mode, the device interprets the two
bytes immediately preceding the CRC byte at the end of the frame. Table 8-14 shows the ADS127L11 device
commands.

There are special extended-length bit patterns that are longer than the standard command length. These
patterns are used to reset the ADC and to reset the frame in three-wire SPI operation. The extended bit patterns
are explained in the Reset by SPI Input Pattern and 3-Wire SPI Mode sections.
8.5.6.1 No-Operation
The no-operation command bytes are 00h and 00h. Use this command if no input command is desired. If the
SPI CRC check is enabled, the CRC byte is required (byte 3), which is always D7h for bytes 00h and 00h. SDI
can be held low during data readback, but in CRC mode the SPI_ERR flag is set, which blocks future register
write operations. The SPI_ERR flag can be ignored while reading conversion data until the next register write
operation. At that point, the SPI_ERR flag of the STATUS register must be manually cleared by writing 1b.

8.5.6.2 Read Register Command
The read register command is used to read register data. The command follows an off-frame protocol in which
the read command is sent in one frame and the ADC responds with register data in the next frame. The first byte
of the command is the base command value (40h) added to the 4-bit register address. The value of the second
command byte is arbitrary, but is used together with the first byte for the CRC. The response to registers outside
the valid address range is 00h. The register data format is most-significant-bit first.
Figure 8-29 shows an example of reading register data using the 16-bit output frame size. Frame 1 is the
command frame and frame 2 is the data response frame. The frames are delimited by taking CS high. The
data response frame is padded with 00h after the register data byte to fill the 16-bit frame. If desired, the data
response frame can be shortened after the data byte by taking CS high.
If operating in full-duplex mode (such as a simultaneous read of 24-bit conversion data during the input of the
register read command), pad the command frame with a leading 00h value to match the length of the data
response frame. When configuring multiple registers, full-duplex operation can be used to double the throughput
of the read register operations by inputting the next read register command during the data response frame of
the previous register.

Figure 8-30 shows an example of the read register operation using the maximum 40-bit frame size in full-duplex
operation. In frame 1, conversion data are output at the same time as the input of the read register command (if
the previous frame was not a read register command). The input command is padded with two don't care bytes
in order to match the length of the output data frame. The padded input bytes are excluded from the CRC-IN
code calculation. Frame 2 shows the input of the next read register command concurrent with the output of the
previous register data. Zeros are padded after the register data to place CRC-OUT in the same location as with
a conversion data output frame. The CRC-OUT code includes all preceding bytes within the data output frame.
The SPI_ERR bit of the STATUS header indicates if an SPI CRC error occurred and whether the read register
command is accepted.

8.5.6.3 Write Register Command
The write register command is used to write register data. The write register operation is performed in a single
frame. The first byte of the command is the base value (80h) added to the 4-bit register address. The second
byte of the command is the register data. Writing to registers outside the valid address range is ignored.
Figure 8-31 shows an example of a register write operation using the 16-bit frame size. If operating in full-duplex
mode (simultaneous reading of 24-bit conversion data during the input of the register write command), include
one or more leading pad bytes to the input data to match the length of the output frame. When configuring
a series of registers (when conversion data can be ignored), the minimum 16-bit frame size can be used to
improve throughput.

operation is also illustrated to show simultaneous input of the command and output of conversion data. The
input frame is prefixed with two don't care bytes to match the output frame so all conversion data bytes are
transmitted. Successful write operations are verified by reading back the register data, or by checking the
SPI_ERR bit of the STATUS byte for input byte CRC errors. If an SPI CRC input error occurred, SPI_ERR is set
and further register write operations are blocked (except for the STATUS register) until reset by writing 1b to the
same SPI_ERR bit.

8.5.7 Read Conversion Data
Conversion data are read by taking CS low and by applying SCLK to shift out the data directly (no command is
used). Conversion data are buffered, which allows data to be read up to one fMOD clock cycle before the next
DRDY falling edge. Conversion data may be read multiple times until the next conversion data are ready. If the
register read command was sent in the previous frame then register data replaces the conversion data.

Conversion data can be read asynchronous to DRDY. However, when conversion data are read close to the
DRDY falling edge, there is uncertainty whether previous data or new data are output. If the SCLK shift operation
starts at least one fMOD clock cycle before the DRDY falling edge, then old data are provided. If the shift
operation starts at least one fMOD clock cycle after DRDY, then new data are output. The DRDY bit of the

8.5.7.1 Conversion Data
Conversion data are coded in 2's-complement format, MSB first (sign bit), with resolution programmable to 24
bits or 16 bits. The resolution is programmed by the DATA bit of the CONFIG4 register. The SNR of 16-bit data
is limited to 98.1 dB as a result of 16-bit quantization noise. Table 8-15 shows the output code for standard and
extended input ranges shown for 24-bit resolution. The conversion data clips to positive and negative full-scale
code values when the input signal exceeds the respective positive and negative full-scale values.

(2) Ideal output data, excluding offset, gain, linearity, and noise errors, and reduced data resolution

8.5.7.2 Data Ready
There are several methods available to determine when conversion data are ready for readback.
1. Hardware: Monitor the DRDY or the SDO/DRDY pin
2. Software: Monitor the DRDY bit of the STATUS header byte
3. Clock count: Count the number of ADC clocks to predict when data are ready
8.5.7.2.1 DRDY
DRDY is the data-ready output signal. DRDY drives high when conversions are started or resynchronized, and
drives low when conversion data are ready. DRDY is driven back high at the eighth SCLK during conversion
data read. This behavior applies to the synchronized and the start/stop control modes. In one-shot control mode,
DRDY stays low during conversion data read. If the ADC is programmed to enter standby mode (STBY_MODE
bit = 1b), DRDY is driven back high three fCLK cycles after transitioning low. If conversion data are not read,
DRDY pulses high just prior to the next falling edge. See the Synchronization section for details of DRDY
operation for each of the conversion control modes. DRDY is an active output whether CS is high or low.
8.5.7.2.2 SDO/DRDY
SDO/DRDY is a dual-function output pin that can be programmed to automatically change modes from data
ready, when not reading data, to data output mode, when reading data. This pin can replace the function of the
DRDY pin to conserve the number of SPI I/O lines. When programmed to the dual-function mode (SDO_MODE
bit = 1b) and when CS is low, SDO/DRDY mirrors DRDY until the first rising edge of SCLK, at which time the pin
changes mode to provide data output. When the data read operation is complete (24th falling edge of SCLK, or
40th edge if the CRC and STATUS header bytes are included), the pin reverts back to mirroring DRDY. Figure
8-35 illustrates the operation of SDO/DRDY.

Figure 8-35. SDO/DRDY and DRDY Function
8.5.7.2.3 DRDY Bit
The software method of determining data ready is by polling the DRDY bit (bit 0 of the STATUS header). When
DRDY = 1b, the data are new from the last data read operation, otherwise the data supplied are the previous
data. After data are read, the bit stays cleared until the next conversion data are ready. To avoid missing data,
poll the bit at least as often as the output data rate.
8.5.7.2.4 Clock Counting
Another method to determine when data are ready is to count clock cycles. This method is only possible using
an external clock because the internal clock oscillator is not observable. After synchronization or conversion
start, the number of clock cycles is larger compared to the normal conversion data period. The initial number of
clock cycles is equal to the latency time of the digital filter as listed in the Digital Filter section.
8.5.7.3 STATUS Header
A STATUS header is an optional byte prefixed to the conversion data. See Table 8-20 for the STATUS header
field descriptions. The STATUS header is enabled by setting the STATUS bit of the CONFIG4 register. The
STATUS header byte sent with conversion data has the same content as the STATUS register.
8.5.8 Daisy-Chain Operation
In simultaneous-sampling systems using multiple ADCs, the devices can be connected in a daisy-chain string
to reduce the number of SPI connections. A daisy-chain connection links together the SPI output of one device
to the SPI input of the next device so the devices in the chain appear as a single logical device to the host
controller. There is no special programming required for daisy-chain operation, simply apply additional shift
clocks to access all devices in the chain. For simplified operation, program the same SPI frame size for each
device (for example, when enabling the CRC option of all devices, thus producing a 32-bit frame size).

to the host SPI data out, and SDO/DRDY of ADS127L11 (4) connects to the host SPI data input. The shift
operation is simultaneous for all devices in the chain. After each ADC shifts out the conversion data, the data of
SDI appears on SDO/DRDY to drive the SDI of the next device in the chain. The shift operation continues until
the last device in the chain is reached. The SPI frame ends when CS is taken high, at which time the data shifted
into each device is interpreted. The SDO/DRDY pin must be programmed to data output-only mode.

To input data, the host first shifts in the data intended for the last device in the chain. The number of input bytes

requires three bytes by prefixing a pad byte in front of the two command bytes. The input data of ADC #4 is first,
followed by the input data of ADC #3, and so forth.

8-36. This example illustrates a 32-bit output frame (24-bits of data, with the CRC byte enabled). The output
data of ADC (4) is first in the sequence, followed by the data of ADC (3), and so on. The total number of clocks
required to shift out the data is given by the number of bits per frame × the number of devices in the chain. In
this example, 32-bit output frames × four devices result in 128 total clocks.

Figure 8-39. Read Conversion Data in Daisy-Chain Connection
As shown in Equation 20, the maximum number of devices connected in daisy-chain configuration is limited
by the SCLK signal frequency, data rate, and number of bits per frame. The same limitation applies to parallel-
connected SPI because the data from each ADC is also read serially.
Maximum devices in a chain = ⌊fSCLK / (fDATA · bits per frame)⌋
(20)
For example, if fSCLK = 20 MHz, fDATA = 100 kSPS, and 32-bit frames are used, the maximum number of
daisy-chain connected devices is the floor of: ⌊20 MHz / (100 kHz · 32)⌋ = 6.
8.5.9 3-Wire SPI Mode
The ADC has the option of 3-wire SPI operation by grounding CS. 3-wire mode is detected by the ADC when
CS is grounded at power up or after reset. 3-wire SPI mode is indicated by bit 7 (CS_MODE) of the STATUS
register. The device changes to 4-wire SPI mode any time CS is taken high.
Because CS no longer controls frame timing in 3-wire SPI mode, SCLKs are counted by the ADC to determine
the beginning and ending of a frame. The number of SCLK bits must be controlled by the host and must match
the size of the output frame. The number of bits per frame depends on device configuration. The size of the
output frame is shown in Table 8-12. Because frame timing is determined by the number of SCLKs, avoid
inadvertent SCLK transitions, such as those possibly occurring at power up.
3-wire SPI mode supports the same command format and clocking as the 4-wire mode, except there is no CS
toggling and therefore no wait time between frames.
8.5.9.1 3-Wire SPI Mode Frame Reset
In 3-wire SPI mode, an unintended SCLK can misalign the frame, resulting in loss of frame synchronization to
the ADC. As shown in Figure 8-40, the SPI is resynchronized without requiring an ADC reset by sending an SPI
reset pattern. The reset pattern is a minimum of 63 consecutive 1s followed by one 0 at the 64th SCLK. The 65th
SCLK starts a new SPI frame. Optionally, the ADC can be completely reset by toggling RESET or by the reset

8.6 Registers
Table 8-16 lists the register map of the ADS127L11. Register data are read or written one register at a time for
each read or write operation in a frame. Writing to any register address 4h through Eh results in a conversion
restart and loss of synchronization. If the ADC is idle (conversions are stopped), new conversions are not
started.

CRC[7:0]
R/W
00h
Register map CRC value.
The register map CRC is a user-computed value of registers 0h to
1h together with registers 4h through Eh. The value written to this
register is compared to an internal CRC calculation. If the values do
not match, the REG_ERR bit is set in the STATUS header byte and
register. The register CRC check is enabled by the REG_CRC bit.
If the register CRC function is disabled, this register is available for
scratchpad purposes.

9 Application and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification,
and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for
determining suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The high-performance capability of the ADS127L11 is achievable when familiar with the requirements of the
input driver, antialias filter, reference voltage, SPI clocking, and PCB layout. The following sections provide
design guidelines.
9.1.1 SPI Operation
Although the ADC provides flexible clock options for the SPI interface and the range of IOVDD voltages, the
following guidelines are recommended to achieve full data sheet performance.
1. Use an SCLK that is phase coherent to CLK; that is, ratios of 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, and so on.
2. Minimize phase skew between SCLK and CLK (< 5 ns).
3. Operate IOVDD at the lowest voltage possible to reduce digital noise.
4. If IOVDD ≥ 3.3 V, consider operating SCLK continuously over the full conversion period to spread noise
coupling over the full conversion period.
5. Keep the trace capacitance of SDO/DRDY ≤ 20 pF to reduce the peak currents associated with digital output
transitions.
9.1.2 Input Driver
The ADC incorporates precharge buffers that reduce the settling and bandwidth requirement of the analog input
driver. If a 10-MHz or less bandwidth driver is used, or if there is a long distance between the driver and the
ADC inputs (such as a cable connection), enable the input precharge buffers. For higher gain-bandwidth drivers,
the precharge buffers may be disabled to reduce power consumption, but in any case, full-rated THD and SNR
data sheet performance is realized with the input precharge buffers active. In low-speed mode operation, the
modulator sample rate is significantly reduced, therefore the driver has more time to settle between the input
sampling pulses. Using a lower bandwidth input driver or disabling the precharge buffers can be practical options
for low-speed operation.
9.1.3 Antialias Filter
Input signals occurring near fMOD (12.8 MHz in high-speed mode and 1.6 MHz in low-speed mode) fold back (or
alias) to the pass band, resulting in data errors. When aliased, the frequency errors cannot be removed by post
processing. An analog antialias filter at the ADC inputs removes the frequencies from the input signal before
they are aliased by the ADC. The required order of the antialias filter is dependent on the selected OSR and the
target value of signal attenuation at fMOD. A large value of OSR means more frequency range between the fDATA
Nyquist frequency and fMOD for the filter to provide the desired roll off. For example, for OSR = 128, more than
two decades of frequency separates fDATA and fMOD. With a corner frequency = fDATA, a third-order, 60-dB per
decade filter provides a 120-dB alias rejection at fMOD
.
9.1.4 Reference Voltage
For data sheet performance, the ADC requires a reference voltage with low noise and good drive strength
to charge the sampled reference input. Because the modulator continuously samples the reference voltage
whether conversions are ongoing or not (except in standby and power-down modes), the reference loading is
constant, therefore incomplete settling of the reference voltage appears as a gain error to the system. The total
system gain error can be calibrated. A 22-μF decoupling capacitor at the reference output and 1-μF and 0.1-μF
capacitors directly across the reference input pins filters the reference input. The ADC also incorporates an
optional reference precharge buffer for the positive input to buffer the reference voltage.

9.1.5 Simultaneous-Sampling Systems
When using the ADC in a multichannel system, the same design principles apply with additional considerations
for clock routing, synchronization, shared reference voltage and SPI clocking. See the ADS127L11 in

Figure 9-1. ADS127L11 Circuit Diagram
9.2.1 Design Requirements
Figure 9-1 shows an application of the ADS127L11 used in a precision data acquisition system. The goal of this
design is an antialias filter at the ADC input to attenuate out-of-band signals at the modulator sample rate (fMOD).
The requirement of the antialias filter is 90-dB attenuation at the critical fMOD frequency (12.8 MHz in high-speed
mode) using the OSR = 32 setting in wideband filter mode. The filter is designed for a flat amplitude response
and low group delay error within the pass band of the signal.
Table 9-1 lists the target design values and the actual values in this design example.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The antialias filter consists of a passive first-order input filter, an active second-order filter, and a passive
first-order output filter. The filter is fourth-order overall. The filter design accommodates the worst-case wideband
filter OSR value (32), which results in less than two decades of frequency range between the Nyquist frequency
at fDATA and the fMOD frequency. The fourth-order filter provides 90-dB rolloff over this frequency range. The filter
rolloff at fMOD is the key function of the filter.
The THS4551 amplifier is selected for the active filter stage because of the 135-MHz gain-bandwidth product
(GBP) and 50-ns settling time. The amplifier GBP is sufficient to maintain the filter rolloff at 12.8 MHz, even with
the dc gain of 15 dB. For example, for applications where gain is desired, a 10-MHz amplifier has marginal GBP
to fully support the required rolloff at the fMOD frequency. The settling time specification of the THS4551 also
makes the device a good choice for driving the ADC sampled inputs.
The design of the active filter section begins with an equal-R assumption to reduce the number of component
values to select. The dc gain of the filter is R3 / (R1 + R2). 1-kΩ resistors are selected to be low enough in value
to keep resistor noise and amplifier input current noise from affecting the noise of the ADC.
The 1-kΩ input resistor is divided into two 499-Ω resistors (R1 and R2) to implement the first-order filter using
C1. The first-order filter is decoupled from the second-order active filter, but shares R1 and R2 to determine each
filter stage corner frequency. The corner frequency is given by C1 and the Thevenin resistance at the terminals
of C1 (RTH = 2 × 250 Ω).
Given an arbitrary selection of R4 (2 × 499 Ω in this case), the values of the 2 × 180 pF (C3) feedback capacitors
and the single 330-pF differential capacitor (C2) are calculated by the filter design equations given in the Design
Methodology for MFB Filters in ADC Interface Applications application note. The design inputs are filter fO and
filter Q for the multiple-feedback active filter topology. The differential capacitor (C4) is not part of the filter
design but is used to improve filter phase margin. The 5-Ω resistors (R5) isolate the amplifier outputs from stray
capacitance to further improve filter phase margin.
The final RC filter at the ADC inputs serves two purposes. First, the filter provides a fourth pole to the overall
filter response, thereby increasing filter rolloff. The other purpose of the filter is a charge reservoir to filter the
sampled input of the ADC. The charge reservoir reduces the instantaneous charge demand of the amplifier,
maintaining low distortion and low gain error that otherwise can degrade because of incomplete amplifier
settling. The input filter values are 2 × 22 Ω and 2.2 nF. The 22-Ω resistors are outside the THS4551 filter loop to
isolate the amplifier outputs from the 2.2-nF capacitor to maintain phase margin.
Low voltage-coefficient C0G capacitors are used everywhere in the signal path for their low distortion properties.
The amplifier gain resistors are 0.1% tolerance to provide best possible THD performance. The ADC VCM
output connection to the amplifier VOCM input pin is optional because the same function is provided by the
amplifier.
See the THS4551 data sheet for additional examples of active filter designs and application.

9.2.3 Application Curves
The following figures are produced by the TINA-TI™, SPICE-based analog simulation program. The THS4551
SPICE model can be downloaded at the THS4551 product folder.
Figure 9-2 shows the frequency response of the antialias filter and the total response of the antialias filter and
ADC. As shown in this image, the filter provides 90-dB stop-band attenuation from the Nyquist frequency to the
12.8-MHz fMOD frequency.
Figure 9-3 shows the analog filter group delay. The 0.575-μs group delay is small in comparison to the 85-μs
group delay of the ADC digital filter (34 / fDATA). The analog filter group delay linearity is 0.017 μs, peaking at the
edge of the 165-kHz pass band.

Figure 9-4 shows the noise density of the antialias filter circuit, the noise density of the ADC, and the combined
noise density of the filter and ADC. Noise density is the noise voltage per √Hz of bandwidth plotted versus
frequency.
Figure 9-5 shows the total noise from the 1-Hz start frequency up to the ADC final bandwidth. Below 200 Hz,
noise is dominated by 1 / f voltage and current noise of the THS4551 amplifier. Above 200 Hz, noise is
dominated by ADC noise. The combined noise of the filter and ADC over the 165-kHz bandwidth is 11.8 μV,
meeting the 12-μV target value.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The ADC has three analog power supplies and one digital power supply. Power-supply voltages AVDD1 and
AVSS establish the type of analog input signal range. Bipolar input signals are only possible using bipolar supply
voltages, such as AVDD1 = 2.5 V and AVSS = –2.5 V, and only unipolar input signals are possible using unipolar
supply voltages, such as AVDD1 = 5 V and AVSS = DGND.
The AVDD2 power-supply voltage is with respect to AVSS and the IOVDD power-supply voltage is with respect
to DGND. The specified range of the power supplies are listed in the Recommended Operating Conditions table.
The ADC can be operated using a single 5-V voltage for all supplies (or one 3-V voltage in low-speed mode) with
AVSS = DGND. The ADC supply pins must always have separate bypass capacitors.
Power-supply bypassing at the device pins is essential to achieve data sheet performance. The ADC also
requires capacitors for the CAPA and CAPD pins, and for the analog input and reference pins. Place the
capacitors close to the device pins using short, direct traces with the smaller capacitor value placed closest to
the device pins.
The recommended bypass components of the device pins are as follows:
1. AVDD1 to AVSS:
a. Parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF capacitors across the AVDD1 power supply and AVSS
b. A 3-Ω resistor placed in series between the bypass capacitors and the device AVDD1 pin
2. AVDD2 to AVSS: Parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF capacitors across the pins
3. IOVDD to DGND: Parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF capacitors across the pins
4. CAPA to AVSS: 1-µF capacitor placed across the pins
5. CAPD to DGND: 1-µF capacitor placed across the pins
6. REFP, REFN: Parallel combination of 1-µF and 0.1-µF capacitors across the pins
7. AINP, AINN: 22-Ω resistors in series, followed by 2.2 nF across the pins, 220 pF from each pin to AVSS
Figure 10-1 shows the component placement for the device configured for unipolar power-supply operation.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
To achieve data sheet performance, use a minimum four-layer PCB board with the inner layers dedicated to
ground and power planes. Best performance is achieved by combining the analog and digital grounds on a
single, unbroken ground plane. In some layout geometries, however, using separate analog and digital grounds
may be necessary to help direct digital currents away from the analog ground (such as pulsing LED indicators,
relays, and so on). In this case, consider separate ground return paths for these loads. When separate analog
and digital grounds are used, join the grounds at the ADC.
Use the power plane layer to route the power supplies to the ADC.
The top and bottom layers route the analog and digital signals. Route the input signal as a matched differential
pair throughout the signal chain to reduce differential noise coupling. Avoid crossing or adjacent placement of
digital signals with the analog signals. This layout is especially true for high-frequency digital signals such as
the clock input, and SPI signals, SCLK, and SDO/DRDY. The pin placement of both ADC package options
minimizes the need to cross digital and analog signals.
Place the voltage reference close to the ADC. Orient the reference such that the reference ground pin is close to
the ADC REFN pin. Place the reference input bypass capacitors directly at the ADC pins. Use reference bypass
capacitors for each ADC in multichannel systems and connect the reference ground pin to the ground plane (or
to AVSS in some bipolar supply systems) at one point and route REFP and REFN as paired traces to each ADC.
11.2 Layout Example
Figure 11-1 is a layout example based on the circuit diagram of Figure 9-1. The ADC is shown in the WQFN
package option. A four-layer PCB is used, with the inner layers dedicated as ground and power planes. Cutouts
are used on the plane layers under the amplifier input pins to reduce stray capacitance to increase amplifier
phase margin. Thermal vias for the ADS127L11 and THS4551 WQFN package thermal pad are not used so that
bypass capacitors can be placed on the bottom layer underneath the devices. Place the smaller of the parallel
supply bypass capacitors closest to the device supply pins.
