ad7891 ? rev. d terminology signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio this is the measured ratio of signal to (noise + distortion) at the output of the adc. the signal is the rms amplitude of the fundamental. noise is the rms sum of all nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (f s /2), excluding dc. the ratio is dependent upon the number of quantization levels in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quan- tization noise. the theoretical signal-to-(noise +distortion) ratio for an ideal n-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by signal-to-(noise + distortion) = (6.02n + 1.76) db therefore, for a 12-bit converter, this is 74 db. total harmonic distortion (thd) thd is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamental. for the ad7891, it is defined as thd db log () = ++++ 20 22222 v vvvv v 23456 1 where v 1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and v 2 , v 3 , v 4 , v 5 and v 6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the sixth harmonics. peak harmonic or spurious noise peak harmonic or spurious noise is defined as the ratio of the rms value of the next largest component in the adc output spectrum (up to f s /2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental. normally, the value of this specification is determined by the larg- est harmonic in the spectrum, but for parts where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is a noise peak. intermodulation distortion with inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and f b, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa nfb, where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on. intermodulation terms are those for wh ich neither m nor n are equal to zero. for example, the secon d-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa C fb), while the third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa C fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa C 2fb). t he ad7891 is tested using the ccif standard where two input frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth are used. in this case, the second- and third-order terms are of different significance. the second-order terms are usually dis- tanced in frequency from the original sine waves while the third- order terms are usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies. as a result, the second- and-third order terms are specified separately. the calculation of the intermodulation distortion is as per the thd specification where it is the ratio of the rms sum of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of the fundamental expressed in dbs. channel-to-channel isolation channel-to-channel isolation is a measure of the level of crosstalk between channels. it is measured by applying a full- scale 20 khz (ad7891-1) or 100 khz (ad7891-2) sine wave signal to one input channel and determining how much that signal is attenuated in each of the other channels. the figure given is the worst case across all eight channels. relative accuracy relative accuracy or endpoint nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the adc transfer function. differential nonlinearity this is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 lsb change between any two adjacent codes in the adc. positive full-scale error (ad7891-1, 10 v and 5 v; ad7891-2, 2.5 v) this is the deviation of the last code transition (01. . .110 to 01. . .111) from the ideal 4 ref in C 3/2 lsb (ad7891-1 10 v range), 2 ref in C 3/2 lsb (ad7891-1 5v range), or ref in C 3/2 lsb (ad7891-2, 2.5 v range), after the bipolar zero error has been adjusted out. positive full-scale error (ad7891-2, 0 v to 5 v and 0 v to 2.5 v) this is the deviation of the last code transition (11. . .110 to 11. . .111) from the ideal 2 ref in C 3/2 lsb (0 v to 5 v range), or ref in C 3/2 lsb (0 v to 2.5 v range), after the unipolar offset error has been adjusted out. bipolar zero error (ad7891-1, 10 v and 5 v; ad7891-2, 2.5 v) this is the deviation of the midscale transition (all 0s to all 1s) from the ideal agnd C 1/2 lsb. unipolar offset error (ad7891-2, 0 v to 5 v and 0 v to 2.5 v) this is the deviation of the first code transition (00. . .000 to 00. . .001) from the ideal agnd + 1/2 lsb. negative full-scale error (ad7891-1, 10 v and 5 v; ad7891-2, 2.5 v) this is the deviation of the first code transition (10. . .000 to 10. . .001) from the ideal C 4 ref in + 1/2 lsb (ad7891-1 10 v range), C 2 ref in + 1/2 lsb (ad7891-1 5v range), or C ref in + 1/2 lsb (ad7891-2, 2.5 v range), after bipolar zero error has been adjusted out. track/hold acquisition time track/hold acquisition time is the time required for the output of the track/hold amplifier to reach its final value, within 1/2 lsb, after the end of conversion (the point at which the track/hold returns to track mode). it also applies to situations where a change in the selected input channel takes place or where there is a step input change on the input voltage applied to the selected v in input of the ad7891. it means the user must wait for the duration of the track/hold acquisition time after the end of conversion or after a channel change/step input change to v in before starting another conversion, to ensure the part operates to specification.
ad7891 ?0 rev. d interface information the ad7891 provides two interface options, a 12-bit parallel interface and a high speed serial interface. the required inter- face mode is selected via the mode pin. the two interface modes are discussed in the following sections. parallel interface mode the parallel interface mode is selected by tying the mode input to a logic high. figure 2 shows a timing diagram illustrating the operational sequence of the ad7891 in parallel mode for a hardware conversion start. the multiplexer address is written to the ad7891 on the rising edge of the wr input. the on-chip track/hold goes into hold mode on the rising edge of convst ; conversion is also initiated at this point. when the conversion is complete, the end of conversion line ( eoc ) pulses low to indi- cate that new data is available in the ad7891 s output register. this eoc line can be used to drive an edge-triggered interrupt of a microprocessor. cs and rd going low accesses the 12-bit conversion result. in systems where the part is interfaced to a gate array or asic, this eoc pulse can be applied to the cs and rd inputs to latch data out of the ad7891 and into the gate array or asic. this means the gate array or asic does not need any conversion status recognition logic, and it also elimi- nates the logic required in the gate array or asic to generate the read signal for the ad7891. t 6 t 7 t conv t 1 t 5 t 8 t 1 t 5 t 2 v alid data output v alid data input t 9 t 10 t 3 t 4 convst (i) eoc (o) cs (o) wr (i) rd (i) db0 to db11 (i/o) note i = input o = output figure 2. parallel mode timing diagram converter details the ad7891 is an 8-channel, high speed, 12-bit data acquisi- tion system. it provides the user with signal scaling, multiplexer, track/hold, reference, adc, and high speed parallel and serial interface logic functions on a single chip. the signal cond ition- ing on the ad7891-1 allows the part to accept analog input ranges of 5v or 10 v when operating from a single supply. the input circuitry on the ad7891-2 allows the part to handle input signal ranges of 0 v to +2.5 v, 0 v to +5 v, and 2.5 v a gain while operating from a sin gle 5 v supply. the part req uires a 2.5 v reference that can be provided from the part s own internal reference or from an external reference source. conversion is initiated on the ad7891 either by pulsing the convst input or by writing a logic 1 to the swconv bit of the control register. when using the hardware convst input, the on-chip track/hold goes from track to hold mode and the conversion sequence is started on the rising edge of the convst signal. when a software conversion start is initiated, an internal pulse is generated, delaying the track/hold acquisition point and the conversion start sequence until the pulse is timed out. this internal pulse is initiated (goes from low to high) whenever a write to the ad7891 control register takes place with a 1 in the swconv bit. it then starts to discharge and the track/hold cannot go into hold and conversion cannot be initiated until the pulse signal goes low. the internal pulse duration is equal to the track/hold acquisition time. this allows the user to obtain a valid result after changing channels and initiating a conversion in the same write operation. the conversion clock for the part is internally generated and conversion time for the ad7891 is 1.6 m s from the rising edge of the hardware convst signal. the track/hold acquisition time for the ad7891-1 is 600 ns, while the track/hold acquisition time for the ad7891-2 is 400 ns. to obtain optimum perfor- mance from the part, the data read operation should not occur during the conversion or during the 100 ns prior to the next conversion. this allows the ad7891-1 to operate at throughput rates up to 454.5 ksps and the ad7891-2 to operate at through- put rates up to 500 ksps in the parallel mode and achieve data sheet specifications. in the serial mode, the maximum achievable throughput rate for both the ad7891-1 and the ad7891-2 is 357 ksps (assuming a 20 mhz serial clock). all unused analog inputs should be tied to a voltage within the nominal analog input range to avoid noise pickup. for mini- mum power consumption, the unused analog inputs should be tied to agnd.
ad7891 ?1 rev. d serial interface mode the serial interface mode is selected by tying the mode input to a logic low. in this case, five of the data/control inputs of the parallel mode assume serial interface functions. the serial interface on the ad7891 is a 5-wire interface with read and write capabilities, with data being read from the output register via the data out line and data being written to the control register via the data in line. the part operates in a s lave or external clocking mode and requires an externally applied ser ial clock to the sclk input to access data from the data register or write data to the control register. there are separate framing signals for the read ( rfs ) and write ( tfs ) operations. the serial interface on the ad7891 is designed to allow the part to be interfaced to systems that provide a serial clock that is synchronized to the serial data, such as the 80c51, 87c51, 68hc11, and 68hc05, and most digital signal processors. when using the ad7891 in serial mode, the data lines db11 to db10 should be tied to logic low, and the cs , wr , and rd inputs should be tied to logic high. pins db4 to db0 can be tied to either logic high or logic low but must not be left floating because this condition could cause the ad7891 to draw large am ounts of current. read operation figure 3 shows the timing diagram for reading from the ad7891 in serial mode. rfs goes low to access data from the ad7891. the serial clock input does not have to be continuous. the serial data can be accessed in a number of bytes. however, rfs m ust remain low for the duration of the data transfer operation. six- te en bits of data are transmitted in serial mode with the data format bit first, followed by the three address bits in the control register, followed by the 12-bit conversion result starting with the msb. serial data is clocked out of the device on the rising edge of sclk and is valid on the falling edge of sclk. at the end of the read operation, the data out line is three- stated by a rising edge on either the sclk or rfs inputs, w hich- ever occurs first. write operation figure 4 shows a write operation to the control register of the ad7891. the tfs input goes low to indicate to the part that a se rial write is about to occur. the ad7891 control register requires only six bits of data. these are loaded on the first six clock cycles of the serial clock with data on all subsequent clock cycles being ignored. serial data to be written to the ad7891 must be valid on the falling edge of sclk. simplifying the serial interface to minimize the number of interconnect lines to the ad7891 in serial mode, the user can connect the rfs and tfs lines of the ad7891 together and read and write from the part simul- taneously. in this case, a new control register data line selecting the input channel and providing a conversion start command should be provided on the data in line, while the part pro- v ides the result from the conversion just completed on the data out line. data out (o) sclk (i) rfs (i) t 18a note i = input o = output format a2 a1 a0 db11 db10 db0 three-state t 18 t 16 t 15 t 14 t 12 t 11 t 13 t 17 figure 3. serial mode read operation data in (i) sclk (i) tfs (i) note i = input format a0 a1 a0 t 19 t 22 t 21 t 20 conv stby don't care don't care figure 4. serial mode write operation
ad7891 ?2 rev. d circuit description reference the ad7891 contains a single reference pin labeled ref out/ ref in that either provides access to the part s own 2.5 v internal reference or to which an external 2.5 v reference can be connected to provide the reference source for the part. the part is specified with a 2.5 v reference voltage. errors in the reference source result in gain errors in the transfer function of the ad7891 and add to the specified full-scale errors on the part. they also result in an offset error injected into the attenuator stage. the ad7891 contains an on-chip 2.5 v reference. to use this reference as a reference source for the ad7891, simply connect a 0.1 m f disc ceramic capacitor from the ref out/ref in pin to refgnd. refgnd should be connected to agnd or the a nalog ground plane. the voltage that appears at the ref out/ r ef in pin is internally buffered before being applied to the adc. if this reference is required for use external to the ad7891, it should be buffered since the part has a fet switch in series with the reference, resulting in a source impedance for this output of 2 k w nominal. the tolerance of the internal reference is 10 mv at 25 c with a typical temperature coefficient of 25 ppm/ c and a maximum error over temperature of 20 mv. if the application requires a reference with a tighter tolerance or if the ad7891 needs to be used with a system reference, an external reference can be connected to the ref out/ref in pin. the external reference overdrives the internal reference and thus provides the reference source for the adc. the refer- ence input is buffered before being applied to the adc and the maximum input current is 100 m a. suitable reference for the ad7891 include the ad580, the ad680, the ad780, and the ref43 precision 2.5 v references. analog input section the ad7891 is offered as two part types: the ad7891-1 where each input can be configured to have a 10 v or a 5 v input range, and the ad7891-2 where each input can be configured to have a 0 v to +2.5 v, 0 v to +5 v, and 2.5 v input range. ad7891-1 figure 5 shows the analog input section of the ad7891-1. each input can be configured for 5 v or 10 v operation. for 5 v operation, the v inxa and v inxb inputs are tied together and the input voltage is applied to both. for 10 v operation, the v inxb i nput is tied to agnd and the input voltage is applied to the v inxa input. the v inxa and v inxb inputs are symmetrical and fully interchangeable. therefore, for ease of pcb layout on the 10 v range, the input voltage may be applied to the v inxb input while the v inxa input is tied to agnd. 30k v inxa v inxb agnd to multiplexer ad7891-1 2k ref out/ref in to adc reference circuitry 7.5k 30k 15k 2.5v reference figure 5. ad7891-1 analog input structure the input resistance for the 5 v range is typically 20 k w . for the 10 v input range, the input resistance is typically 34.3 k w . the resistor input stage is followed by the multiplexer, which is followed by the high input impedance stage of the track/hold amplifier. the designed code transitions take place midway between suc- cessive integer lsb values (i.e., 1/2 lsb, 3/2 lsbs, 5/2 lsbs). lsb size is given by the formula 1 lsb = f s /4096. therefore, for the 5 v range, 1 lsb = 10 v/4096 = 2.44 mv. for the 10 v range, 1 lsb = 20 v/4096 = 4.88 mv. output coding is deter- mined by the format bit of the control register. the ideal input/output code transitions are shown in table i. ad7891-2 figure 6 shows the analog input section of the ad7891-2. each input can be configured for input ranges of 0 v to +5 v, 0 v to +2.5 v, or 2.5 v. for the 0 v to 5 v input range, the v inxb input is tied to agnd and the input voltage is applied to the v inxa input. for the 0 v to 2.5 v input range, the v inxa and v inxb inputs are tied together and the input voltage is applied to both. for the 2.5 v input range, the v inxb input is tied to 2.5 v and the input voltage is applied to the v inxa input. the 2.5 v source must have a low output impedance. if the internal reference on the ad7891 is used, it must be buffered before being applied to v inxb . the v inxa and v inxb inputs are symmetrical and fully interchangeable. therefore, for ease of pcb layout on the 0 v to +5 v or 2.5 v range, the input voltage may be applied to the v inxb input, while the v inxa input is tied to agnd or 2.5 v. 1.8k v inxa v inxb agnd to multiplexer ad7891-2 2k ref out/ref in to adc reference circuitry 1.8k 2.5v reference figure 6. ad7891-2 analog input structure the input resistance for both the 0 v to +5 v and 2.5 v ranges is typically 3.6 k w . when an input is configured for 0 v to 2.5 v operation, the input is fed into the high impedance stage of the tr ack/hold amplifier via the multiplexer and the two 1.8 k w resistors in parallel. the designed code transitions occur midway between successive integer lsb values (i.e., 1/2 lsb, 3/2 lsbs, 5/2 lsbs). lsb size is given by the formula 1 lsb = f s /4096. therefore, for the 0 v to 5 v range, 1 lsb = 5 v/4096 = 1.22 mv, for the 0 v to 2.5 v range, 1 lsb = 2.5 v/4096 = 0.61 mv, and for the 2.5 v range, 1 lsb = 5

ad7891 ?4 rev. d track/hold amplifier th e track/hold amplifier on the ad7891 allows the adc to accur ately convert an input sine wave of full-scale amplitude to 12-bit accuracy. the input bandwidth of the track/hold is greater than the nyquist rate of the adc even when the adc is o perated at its maximum throughput rate of 454 khz (ad7891-1) or 500 khz (ad7891-2). in other words, the track/hold ampli fier can handle input frequencies in excess of 227 khz (ad7891-1) or 250 khz (ad7891-2). t he track/hold amplifier acquires an input signal in 600 ns (ad7891-1) or 400 ns (ad7891-2). the operation of the track/ hold is essentially transparent to the user. the track/hold ampli fier goes from its tracking mode to its hold mode on the rising edge of convst . the aperture time for the track/hold (i.e., the delay between the external convst signal and the track/hold actually going into hold) is typically 15 ns. at the end of conver sion, the part returns to its tracking mode. the track/hold starts ac quiring the next signal at this point. standby operation the ad7891 can be put into power save or standby mode by using the standby pin or the swstby bit of the control register. normal operation of the ad7891 takes place when the standby input is at a logic 1 and the swstby bit is at a logic 0. when the standby pin is brought low or a 1 is writ- ten to the swstby bit, the part goes into its standby mode of operation, reducing its power consumption to typically 75 m w. the ad7891 is returned to normal operation when the standby input is at a logic 1 and the swstby bit is a logic 0. the wake-up time of the ad7891 is normally determ ined by the amount of time required to charge the 0.1 m f capacitor between the ref out/ref in pin and ref gnd. if the inter nal reference is being used as the reference source, this capacitor is charged via a nominal 2 k w resistor. assuming 10 time constants to charge the capacitor to 12-bit accuracy, this implies a wake-up time of 2 ms. if an external reference is used, this must be taken into account when working out how long it will take to charge the capacitor. if the external reference has remained at 2.5 v during the time the ad7891 was in standby mode, the capacitor will already be charged when the part is taken out of standby mode. therefore, the wake-up time is now the time required for the internal circuitry of the ad7891 to settle to 12-bit accuracy. this typi- cally takes 5 m s. if the external reference was also put into standby then the wake-up time of the reference, combined with the amount of time taken to recharge the reference capacitor from the external reference, determines how much time must elapse before conversions can begin again. microprocessor interfacing ad7891 to 8x51 serial interface a serial interface between the ad7891 and the 8x51 micro controller is shown in figure 7. txd of the 8x51 drives sclk of the ad7891, while rxd transmits data to and re ceives data from the part. the serial clock speed of the 8x51 is slow compared to the maximum serial clock speed of the ad7891, so maximum throughput of the ad7891 is not achieved with this interface. 8x51 * data out ad7891 * additional pins omitted for clarity sclk data in rfs tfs p3.4 p3.3 txd rxd * figure 7. ad7891 to 8x51 interface the 8x51 provides the lsb of its sbuf register as the first bit in the serial data stream. the ad7891 expects the msb of the 6-bit write first. therefore, the data in the sbuf register must be arranged correctly so that this is taken into account. when data is to be transmitted to the part, p3.3 is taken low. the 8x51 transmits its data in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. one 8-bit transfer is needed to write data to the control register of the ad7891. after the data has been transferred, the p3.3 line is taken high to complete the transmission. when reading data from the ad7891, p3.4 of the 8x51 is taken low. two 8-bit serial reads are performed by the 8x51, and p3.4 is taken high to complete the transfer. again, the 8x51 expects the lsb first, while the ad7891 transmits msb first, so this must be taken into account in the 8x51 software. no provision has been made in the given interface to determine when a conversion has ended. if the conversions are initiated by software, the 8x51 can wait a predetermined amount of time before reading back valid data. alternately, the falling edge of the eoc signal can be used to initiate an interrupt service ro utine that reads the conversion result from part to part. ad7891 to 68hc11 serial interface figure 8 shows a serial interface between the ad7891 and the 68hc11 microcontroller. sck of the 68hc11 drives sclk of the ad7891, the mosi output drives data in of the ad7891, and the miso input receives data from d ata out of the ad7891. ports pc6 and pc7 of the 68hc11 drive the tfs and rfs lines of the ad7891, respectively. for correct operation of this interface, the 68hc11 should be configured such that its cpol bit is a 1 and its cpha bit is a 0. w hen data is to be transferred to the ad7891, pc7 is taken low. when data is to be received from the ad7891, pc6 is taken low. the 68hc11 transmits and receives its serial data in 8-bit bytes, msb first. the ad7891 also transmits and receives data msb first. eight falling clock edges occur in a read or write c ycle from the 68hc11. a single 8-bit write with pc7 low is required to write to the control register. when data has been written, pc7 is taken high. when reading from the ad7891, pc6 is left low after the first eight bits have been read. a second byte of data is then transmitted serially from the ad7891. when this transfer is complete, the pc6 line is taken high.
ad7891 ?5 rev. d as in the 8x51 circuit in figure 7, the way the 68hc11 is informed that a conversion is completed is not shown in the diagram. the eoc line can be used to inform the 68hc11 that a conversion is complete by using it as an interrupt signal. the interrupt service routine reads in the result of the conver- sion. if a software conversion start is used, the 68hc11 can wait for 2.0 m s (ad7891-2) or 2.2 m s (ad7891-1) before read- ing from the ad7891. 68hc11 * data out ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity sclk data in rfs tfs pc7 pc6 sck mosi moso figure 8. ad7891 to 68hc11 interface ad7891 to adsp-21xx serial interface an interface between the ad7891 and the adsp-21xx is shown in figure 9. in the interface shown, either sport0 or sport1 can be used to transfer data to the ad7891. when reading from the part, the sport must be set up with a serial word length of 16 bits. when writing to the ad7891, a serial word length of 6 bits or more can be used. other setups for the serial interface on the adsp-21xx internal sclk use alternate framing mode and active low framing signal. normally, the eoc line from the ad7891 would be connected to the irq2 line of the adsp-21xx to interrupt the dsp at the end of a conversion (not shown in diagram). adsp-21xx * data out ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity sclk data in rfs tfs rfs tfs sclk dt dr figure 9. ad7891 to adsp-21xx serial interface ad7891 to dsp5600x serial interface figure 10 shows a serial interface between the ad7891 and the dsp5600x series of dsps. when reading from the ad7891, the dsp5600x should be set up for 16-bit data transfers, msb first, normal mode synchronous operation, internally generated word frame sync, and gated clock. when writing to the ad7891, 8-bit or 16-bit data transfers can be used. the frame sync signal from the dsp5600x must be inverted before being applied to the rfs and tfs inputs of the ad7891, as shown in figure 10. to monitor the conversion time of the ad7891, a scheme such as those outlined in previous interfaces with eoc can be used. this can be implemented by connecting the eoc line directly to the irqa input of the dsp5600x. dsp5600x * data out ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity sclk data in rfs tfs fst (sc2) sck std srd figure 10. ad7891 to dsp5600x serial interface ad7891 to tms320xxx serial interface the ad7891 can be interfaced to the serial port of tms320xxx dsps, as shown in figure 11. ext ernal timing generation circuitry is necessary to generate the serial clock and syncs necessary for the interface. tms320xxx * data out ad7891 * * a dditional pins omitted for clarity sclk data in rfs tfs fsx clkx dx dr clkr fsr timing generation circuitry figure 11. ad7891 to tms320xxx serial interface
ad7891 ?6 rev. d parallel interfacing the parallel port on the ad7891 allows the device to be inter faced to microprocessors or dsp processors as a memory m apped or i/o mapped device. the cs and rd inputs are common to all memory peripheral interfacing. typical interfaces to different processors are shown in figures 12 to 15. in all the interfaces shown, an external timer controls the convst input of the ad7891 and the eoc output interrupts the host dsp. ad7891 to adsp-21xx figure 12 shows the ad7891 interfaced to the adsp-21xx series of dsps as a memory mapped device. a single wait state may be necessary to interface the ad7891 to the adsp-21xx d epen ding on the clock speed of the dsp. this wait state can be programmed via the data memory wait state control register of the adsp-21xx (please see the adsp-2100 family users manual for details). the following instruction reads data from the ad7891. mr = dm (adc) where adc is the address of the ad7891. data bus address bus db11 to db0 ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity cs wr irq2 d23 to d8 eoc rd wr rd addr decode en dms adsp-21xx * a13 to a0 figure 12. ad7891 to adsp-21xx parallel interface ad7891 to tms32020, tms320c25, and tms320c5x parallel interfaces between the ad7891 and the tms32020, tms320c25, and tms320c5x family of dsps are shown in figure 13. the memory mapped address chosen for the ad7891 should be chosen to fall in the i/o memory space of the dsps. tms320c25 only data bus address bus db11 to db0 ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity cs wr int x d23 to d0 eoc rd msc addr decode en is a15 to a0 tms32020/ tms320c25/ tms320c5x * ready r/ w strb figure 13. ad7891 to tms32020/tms320c25/tms320c5x parallel interface the parallel interface on the ad7891 is fast enough to interface to the tms32020 with no extra wait states. if high speed glue logic, such as 74as devices, are used to drive the wr and rd lines when interfacing to the tms320c25, then again no wait states are necessary. however, if slower logic is used, data ac cesses may be slowed sufficiently when reading from and writing to the part to require the insertion of one wait state. in such a case, this wait state can be generated using the single or gate to combine the cs and msc signals to drive the ready line of the tms320c25, as shown in figure 13. extra wait states are necessary when using the tms320c5x at their fastest clock speeds. wait states can be programmed via the iowsr and cwsr registers (see the tm s320c5x user guide for details). data is read from the adc using the following instruction: in d, adc where d is the memory location where the data is to be stored, and adc is the i/o address of the ad7891. ad7891 to tms320c3x figure 14 shows a parallel interface between the ad7891 and the tms320c3x family of dsps. the ad7891 is interfaced to the expansion bus of the tms320c3x. a single wait state is required in this interface. this can be programmed using the wtcnt bits of the expansion bus control register (see the tms320c3x users guide for details). data from the ad7891 can be read using the following instruction: ldi arn rx , where arn is an auxiliary register containing the lower 16 bits of the address of the ad7891 in the tms320c3x memory space, and rx is the register into which the adc data is loaded. expansion data bus address bus db11 to db0 ad7891 * * additional pins omitted for clarity cs wr int x xd23 to xd0 eoc rd addr decode xa15 to xa0 xr/ w iostrb tms320c3x * figure 14. ad7891 to tms320c3x parallel interface

ad7891 ?8 rev. d ad7891 performance linearity the linearity of the ad7891 is primarily determined by the on-chip 12-bit dac. this is a segmented dac that is laser trimmed for 12-bit integral linearity and differential linearity. typical inl for the ad7891 is 0.25 lsb while typical dnl is 0.5 lsb. noise in an adc, noise exhibits itself as code uncertainty in dc appli- cations and as the noise floor (in an fft for example) in ac applications. in a sampling adc, such as the ad7891, all i nformation about the analog input appears in the baseband from dc to half the sampling frequency. the input bandwidth of the track/hold amplifier exceeds the nyquist bandwidth and, therefore, an antialiasing filter should be used to remove un wanted signals above f s /2 in the input signal in applications where such signals exist. figure 17 shows a histogram plot for 16384 conversions of a dc input signal using the ad7891-1. the analog input was set at the center of a code transition in the following way. an initial dc input level was selected and a number of conversions were made. the resulting histogram was noted and the applied level w as adjusted so that only two codes were generated with an equal number of occurrences. this indicated that the transition point between the two codes had been found. the voltage level at which this occurred was recorded. the other edge of one of t hese two codes was then found in a similar manner. the dc level for the center of code could then be calculated as the average of the two transition levels. the ad7891-1 inputs were configured for the 5 v input range and the data was read from the part in parallel mode after conversion. similar results have been found with the ad7891-1 on the 10 v range and on all input ranges of the ad7891-2. the same performance is achieved in serial mode, again with the data read from the ad7891-1 after conversion. all the codes, except for 3, appear in one output bin, indicating excellent noise performance from the adc. output code 18000 16000 0 2148 2149 number of occurrences 2150 8000 6000 4000 2000 12000 10000 14000 16381 codes 1 code 2 codes figure 17. typical histogram plot (ad7891-1) dynamic performance the ad7891 contains an on-chip track/hold amplifier, allowing the part to sample input signals of up to 250 khz on any of its input channels. many of the ad7891 s applications require it to sequence through low frequency input signals across its eight channels. there may be some applications, however, for which the dynamic performance of the converter on signals of up to 250 khz input frequency is of interest. it is recommended for these wider bandwidth signals that the hardware conversion start method of sampling is used. these applications require information on the spectral content of the input signal. signal-to-(noise + distortion), total harmonic distortion, peak harmonic or spurious tone, and intermodulation distortion are all specified. figure 18 shows a typical fft plot of a 10 khz, 10 v input after being digitized by the ad7891-1 operating at 500 khz, with the input connected for 10 v operation. the signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio is 72.2 db and the total harmonic distortion is C 87 db. figure 19 shows a typical fft plot of a 100 khz, 0 v to 5 v input after being digitized by the ad7891-2 operating at 500 khz, with the input connected for 0 v to 5 v operation. the signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio is 71.17 db and the total harmonic distortion is C 82.3 db. it should be noted that reading from the part during conver sion does have a significant impact on dynamic performance. therefore, for sampling applications, it is recommended not to read during conversion. 0 ?0 ?50 db ?0 ?0 ?20 f s /2 2048 point fft snr = 72.2db figure 18. typical ad7891-1 fft plot 0 ?0 ?50 db ?0 ?0 ?20 f s /2 2048 point fft snr = 71.17db figure 19. typical ad7891-2 fft plot
ad7891 ?9 rev. d effective number of bits t he formula for signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio (see terminology section) is related to the resolution or number of bits of the co n verter. rewriting the formula gives a measure of perfor mance expressed in effective number of bits (enob). enob snr =- () 176 602 ./. where snr is the signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio. the effective number of bits for a device can be calculated from its measured snr. figure 20 shows a typical plot of effective n umber of bits versus frequency for the ad7891-1 and the ad7891-2 from dc to 200 khz. the sampling frequency is 500 khz. the ad7891-1 inputs were configured for 10 v operation. the ad7891-2 inputs were configured for 0 to 5 v o peration. the ad7891-1 plot only goes to 100 khz as a 10 v sine wave of sufficient quality was unavailable at higher frequencies. figure 20 shows that the ad7891-1 converts an input sine wave of 100 khz to an effective number of bits of 11 which equates to a signal-to-(noise + distortion) level of 68.02 dbs. the ad7891-2 converts an input sine wave of 200 khz to an effective number of bits of 11.07, which equates to a signal-to-(noise + distortion) level of 68.4 dbs. frequency ?khz 12.0 11.9 11.1 40 80 120 11.5 11.4 11.3 11.2 11.7 11.6 11.8 20 060 100 140 160 180 200 11.0 effective number of bits ad7891-2 enob ad7891-1 enob figure 20. effective number of bits vs. frequency 44-lead plastic leaded chip carrier [plcc] (p-44a) dimensions shown in inches and (millimeters) bottom view (pins up) 6 pin 1 identifier 7 40 39 17 18 29 28 top view (pins down) 0.656 (16.66) 0.650 (16.51) sq 0.048 (1.22) 0.042 (1.07) 0.050 (1.27) bsc 0.695 (17.65) 0.685 (17.40) sq 0.048 (1.22) 0.042 (1.07) 0.021 (0.53) 0.013 (0.33) 0.630 (16.00) 0.590 (14.99) 0.032 (0.81) 0.026 (0.66) 0.180 (4.57) 0.165 (4.19) 0.056 (1.42) 0.042 (1.07) 0.020 (0.51) min 0.120 (3.05) 0.090 (2.29) 0.040 (1.01) 0.025 (0.64) r compliant to jedec standards mo-047ac controlling dimensions are in inches; millimeter dimensions (in parentheses) are rounded-off inch equivalents for reference only and are not appropriate for use in design outline dimensions
