AD7720 C6C rev. 0 pin function descriptions pin no. mnemonic function 1 ref2 reference input/output. ref2 connects to the output of an internal buffer amplifier used to drive the sigma-delta modulator. when ref2 is used as an input, ref1 must be con- nected to agnd. 2, 14, 18, 20, 24, 26 agnd ground reference point for analog circuitry. 3, 13 nc no connect. 4 stby standby, logic input. when stby is high, the device is placed in a low power mode. when stby is low, the device is powered up. 5 dval data valid logic output. a logic high on dval indicates that the data bit stream from the AD7720 is an accurate digital representation of the analog voltage at the input to the sigma-delta modulator. the dval pin is set low for 20 mclk cycles if the analog input is overranged. 6, 15 dgnd ground reference for the digital circuitry. 7 gc digital control input. when gc is high, the gain error of the modulator can be calibrated. 8 bip analog input range select, logic input. a logic low on this input selects unipolar mode. a logic high selects bipolar mode. 9 mzero digital control input. when mzero is high, the modulator inputs are internally grounded, i.e., tied to agnd in unipolar mode and ref2 in bipolar mode. mzero allows on-chip offsets to be calibrated out. mzero is low for normal operation. 10 data modulator bit stream. the digital bit stream from the sigma-delta modulator is output at data. 11 sclk serial clock, logic output. the bit stream from the modulator is valid on the rising edge of sclk. 12 reseto reset logic output. the signal applied to the reset pin is made available as an output at reseto. 16 xtal1/mclk cmos logic clock input. the xtal1/mclk pin interfaces the devices internal oscillator circuit to an external crystal or an external clock. a parallel resonant, fundamental-frequency, microprocessor-grade crystal and a 1 m w resistor should be connected between the mclk and xtal pins with two capacitors connected from each pin to ground. alternatively, the xtal1/mclk pin can be driven with an external cmos-compatible clock. the part is specified with a 12.5 mhz master clock. 17 xtal2 oscillator output. the xtal2 pin connects the internal oscillator output to an external crystal. if an external clock is used, xtal2 should be left unconnected. 19 dvdd digital supply voltage, +5 v 5%. 21, 23 vin(C), vin(+) analog input. in unipolar operation, the analog input range on vin(+) is vin(C) to (vin(C) + v ref ); for bipolar operation, the analog input range on vin+ is (vin(C) v ref /2). the absolute analog input range must lie between 0 and avdd. the analog input is con- tinuously sampled and processed by the analog modulator. 25, 28 avdd analog positive supply voltage, +5 v 5%. 22 reset reset logic input. reset is an asynchronous input. when reset is taken high, the sigma-delta modulator is reset by shorting the integrator capacitors in the modulator. dval goes low for 20 mclk cycles while the modulator is being reset. 27 ref1 reference input/output. ref1 connects via a 3 k w resistor to the output of the internal 2.5 v reference, and to the input of a buffer amplifier that drives the sigma-delta modulator. this pin can also be overdriven with an external 2.5 v reference.
AD7720 C7C rev. 0 terminology (ideal fir filter used with AD7720 [figure 1]) integral nonlinearity this is the maximum deviation of any code from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the transfer function. the endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale (not to be con- fused with bipolar zero), a point 0.5 lsb below the first code transition (10 0...00 to 100...01 in bipolar mode and 000...00 to 000...01 in unipolar mode) and full scale, a point 0.5 lsb above the last code transition (01 1...10 to 011...11 in bipolar mode and 11 1...10 to 111...11 in unipolar mode). the error is expressed in lsbs. differential nonlinearity this is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 lsb change between two adjacent codes in the adc. common-mode rejection ratio the ability of a device to reject the effect of a voltage applied to both input terminals simultaneouslyoften through variation of a ground levelis specified as a common-mode rejection ratio. cmrr is the ratio of gain for the differential signal to the gain for the common-mode signal. unipolar offset error unipolar offset error is the deviation of the first code transition from the ideal vin(+) voltage which is (vin(C) + 0.5 lsb) when operating in the unipolar mode. bipolar offset error this is the deviation of the midscale transition (11 1...11 to 000... 00) from the ideal vin(+) voltage which is (vin(C) C0.5 lsb) when operating in the bipolar mode. gain error the first code transition should occur at an analog value 1/2 lsb above minus full scale. the last code transition should occur for an analog value 3/2 lsb below the nominal full scale. gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between first and last code transitions and the ideal difference between first and last code transitions. signal-to-(noise + distortion) signal-to-(noise + distortion) is measured signal-to-noise at the output of the adc. the signal is the rms magnitude of the fundamental. noise plus distortion is the rms sum of all of the nonfundamental signals and harmonics to half the output word rate (f mclk /128), excluding dc. signal-to-(noise + distortion) is dependent on the number of quantization levels used in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantiza- tion noise. the theoretical signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio for a sine wave input is given by signal-to- ( noise + distortion) = (6.02 n + 1.76) db where n is the number of bits. total harmonic distortion total harmonic distortion (thd) is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the rms value of the fundamental. for the AD7720, thd is defined as thd = 20 log ( v 2 2 + v 3 2 + v 4 2 + v 5 2 + v 6 2 ) v 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 harmonic. spurious free dynamic range spurious free dynamic range is the difference, in db, between the peak spurious or harmonic component in the adc output spectrum (up to f mclk /128 and excluding dc) and the rms value of the fundamental. normally, the value of this specification will be determined by the largest harmonic in the output spectrum of the fft. for input signals whose second harmonics occur in the stop band region of the digital filter, a spur in the noise floor limits the spurious free dynamic range. intermodulation distortion with inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb, any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa nfb where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. intermodulation distortion terms are those for which neither m or n are equal to zero. for example, the second 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).

AD7720 C10C rev. 0 circuit description sigma-delta adc the AD7720 adc employs a sigma-delta conversion technique that converts the analog input into a digital pulse train. the analog input is continuously sampled by a switched capacitor modulator at twice the rate of the clock input frequency (2 f mclk ). the digital data that represents the analog input is in the ones density of the bit stream at the output of the sigma- delta modulator. the modulator outputs the bit stream at a data rate equal to f mclk . due to the high oversampling rate, which spreads the quantiza- tion noise from 0 to f mclk /2, the noise energy contained in the band of interest is reduced (figure 21a). to reduce the quanti- zation noise further, a high order modulator is employed to shape the noise spectrum, so that most of the noise energy is shifted out of the band of interest (figure 21b). band of interest quantization noise f mclk /2 band of interest noise shaping a. b. f mclk /2 figure 21. sigma-delta adc using the AD7720 adc differential inputs the AD7720 uses differential inputs to provide common-mode noise rejection (i.e., the converted result will correspond to the differential voltage between the two inputs). the absolute volt- age on both inputs must lie between agnd and avdd. in the unipolar mode, the full-scale input range (vin(+) C vin(C)) is 0 v to v ref . in the bipolar mode configuration, the full-scale analog input range is v ref2 /2. the bipolar mode allows complementary input signals. alternatively, vin(C) can be connected to a dc bias voltage to allow a single-ended input on vin(+) equal to v bias v ref2 /2. differential inputs the analog input to the modulator is a switched capacitor de- sign. the analog input is converted into charge by highly linear sampling capacitors. a simplified equivalent circuit diagram of the analog input is shown in figure 22. a signal source driving the analog input must be able to provide the charge onto the sampling capacitors every half mclk cycle and settle to the required accuracy within the next half cycle. a b a b 2pf 2pf ac ground 500 a b a b mclk vin(+) vin(? 500 figure 22. analog input equivalent circuit since the AD7720 samples the differential voltage across its analog inputs, low noise performance is attained with an input circuit that provides low differential mode noise at each input. the amplifiers used to drive the analog inputs play a critical role in attaining the high performance available from the AD7720. when a capacitive load is switched onto the output of an op amp, the amplitude will momentarily drop. the op amp will try to correct the situation and, in the process, hits its slew rate limit. this nonlinear response, which can cause excessive ring- ing, can lead to distortion. to remedy the situation, a low pass rc filter can be connected between the amplifier and the input to the AD7720 as shown in figure 23. the external capacitor at each input aids in supplying the current spikes created during the sampling process. the resistor in this diagram, as well as creating the pole for the antialiasing, isolates the op amp from the transient nature of the load. analog input r c vin(+) vin(? r c figure 23. simple rc antialiasing circuit the differential input impedance of the AD7720 switched capacitor input varies as a function of the mclk frequency, given by the equation: z in = 10 9 /(8 f mclk ) k w even though the voltage on the input sampling capacitors may not have enough time to settle to the accuracy indicated by the resolution of the AD7720, as long as the sampling capacitor charging follows the exponential curve of rc circuits, only the gain accuracy suffers if the input capacitor is switched away too early. an alternative circuit configuration for driving the differential inputs to the AD7720 is shown in figure 24.

(2) the choice of the filter cutoff frequency will depend on the amount of roll off that is acceptable in the passband of the digital filter and the required attenuation at the first image frequency. the capacitors used for the input antialiasing circuit must have low dielectric absorption to avoid distortion. film capacitors such as polypropylene, polystyrene or polycarbonate are suitable. if ceramic capacitors are used, they must have npo dielectric. applying the reference the reference circuitry used in the AD7720 includes an on-chip +2.5 v bandgap reference and a reference buffer circuit. the block diagram of the reference circuit is shown in figure 25. the internal reference voltage is connected to ref1 via a 3 k w resistor and is internally buffered to drive the analog modulators switched capacitor dac (ref2). when using the internal reference, connect 100 nf between ref1 and agnd. if the internal reference is required to bias external circuits, use an external precision op amp to buffer ref1. 3k v reference buffer 1v 2.5v reference switched-cap dac ref ref1 ref2 comparator 100nf figure 25. reference circuit block diagram the AD7720 can operate with its internal reference or an external reference can be applied in two ways. an external reference can be connected to ref1, overdriving the internal reference. how- ever, there will be an error introduced due to the offset of the internal buffer amplifier. for lowest system gain errors when using an external reference, ref1 is grounded (disabling the internal buffer) and the external reference is connected to ref2. in all cases, since the ref2 voltage connects to the analog modulator, a 220 nf capacitor must connect directly from ref2 to agnd. the external capacitor provides the charge required for the dynamic load presented at the ref2 pin (figure 26). f a f b f b 4pf f a f b f a f b mclk ref2 f a 4pf switched-cap dac ref 220nf figure 26. ref2 equivalent circuit the ad780 is ideal to use as an external reference with the AD7720. figure 27 shows a suggested connection diagram. ad780 1 2 3 4 8 7 6 5 nc +v in temp gnd o/p select nc v out trim 22nf 1 m f ref2 22 m f 220nf ref1 +5v figure 27. external reference circuit connection input circuits figures 28 and 29 show two simple circuits for bipolar mode operation. both circuits accept a single-ended bipolar signal source and create the necessary differential signals at the input to the adc. the circuit in figure 28 creates a 0 v to 2.5 v signal at the vin(+) pin to form a differential signal around an initial bias voltage of 1.25 v. for single-ended applications, best thd performance is obtained with vin(C) set to 1.25 v rather than 2.5 v. the input to the AD7720 can also be driven differen- tially with a complementary input as shown in figure 29. in this case, the input common-mode voltage is set to 2.5 v. the 2.5 v p-p full-scale differential input is obtained with a 1.25 v p-p signal at each input in antiphase. this configuration minimizes the required output swing from the amplifier circuit and is useful for single supply applications.

AD7720 C13C rev. 0 offset and gain calibration the analog inputs of the AD7720 can be configured to measure offset and gain errors. pins mzero and gc are used to config- ure the part. before calibrating the device, the part should be reset so that the modulator is in a known state at calibration. when mzero is taken high, the analog inputs are tied to agnd in unipolar mode and v ref in bipolar mode. after taking mzero high, 1000 mclk cycles should be allowed for the circuitry to settle before the bit stream is read from the device. the ideal ones density is 50% when bipolar operation is selected and 37.5% when unipolar mode is selected. when gc is taken high, vin(C) is tied to ground while vin(+) is tied to v ref . again, 1000 mclk cycles should be allowed for the circuitry to settle before the bit stream is read. the ideal ones density is 62.5%. the calibration results apply only for the particular analog input mode (unipolar/bipolar) selected when performing the calibra- tion cycle. on changing to a different analog input mode, a new calibration must be performed. before calibrating, ensure that the supplies have settled and that the voltage on the analog input pins is between the supply voltages. standby the part can be put into a low power standby mode by taking stby high. during standby, the clock to the modulator is turned off and bias is removed from all analog circuits. reset the reset pin is used to reset the modulator to a known state. when reset is taken high, the integrator capacitors of the modulator are shorted and dval goes low and remains low until 20 mclk cycles after reset is deasserted. however, an additional 1000 mclk cycles should be allowed before reading the modulator bit stream as the modulator circuitry needs to settle after the reset. dval the dval pin is used to indicate that an overrange input signal has resulted in invalid data at the modulator output. as with all single bit dac high order sigma-delta modulators, large overloads on the inputs can cause the modulator to go unstable. the modulator is designed to be stable with signals within the input bandwidth that exceed full scale by 20%. when instability is detected by internal circuits, the modulator is reset to a stable state and dval is held low for 20 clock cycles. grounding and layout since the analog inputs are differential, most of the voltages in the analog modulator are common-mode voltages. the excellent common-mode rejection of the part will remove common-mode noise on these inputs. the analog and digital supplies to the AD7720 are independent and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between analog and digital sections of the device. the printed circuit board that houses the AD7720 should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. this facilitates the use of ground planes which can easily be separated. a minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best shielding. digital and analog ground planes should only be joined in one place. if the AD7720 is the only device requir- ing an agnd-to-dgnd connection, the ground planes should be connected at the agnd and dgnd pins of the AD7720. if the AD7720 is in a system where multiple devices require agnd-to-dgnd connections, the connection should still be made at one point only, a star ground point that should be established as close as possible to the AD7720. avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple noise onto the die. the analog ground plane should be allowed to run under the AD7720 to avoid noise coupling. the power supply lines to the AD7720 should use as large a trace as pos- sible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. fast switching signals like clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, and clock signals should never be run near the analog inputs. avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. this will reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. a microstrip technique is by far the best, but is not always possible with a double-s ided board. in this technique, the component side of the board is dedi- cated to ground planes while signals are placed on the other side. good decoupling is important when using high resolution adcs. all analog and digital supplies should be decoupled to agnd and dgnd respectively, with 100 nf ceramic capacitors in parallel with 10 m f tantalum capacitors. to achieve the best from these decoupling capacitors, they should be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. in systems where a common supply voltage is used to drive both the avdd and dvdd of the AD7720, it is recommended that the systems avdd supply is used. this supply should have the recommended analog supply decoupling between the avdd pin of the AD7720 and agnd and the recommended digital supply decoupling capacitor between the dvdd pins and dgnd.
