GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 are high speed, 1-, 4-, and 8-channel, microprocessor-compatible, 8-bit analog-to-digital converters with a maximum throughput of 2 MSPS. The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 contain an on-chip reference of 2.5 V (2% tolerance), a track/hold amplifier, a 420 ns 8-bit half-flash ADC and a high speed parallel interface. The converters can operate from a single 3 V ± 10% and 5 V ± 10% supply.
The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 combine the convert start and power-down functions at one pin, i.e., the CONVST pin.
This allows a unique automatic power-down at the end of a conversion to be implemented. The logic level on the CONVST
pin is sampled after the end of a conversion when an EOC (End of Conversion) signal goes high, and if it is logic low at that point, the ADC is powered down. The AD7822 and AD7825 also have a separate power-down pin. (See Operating Modes section of the data sheet.)
The parallel interface is designed to allow easy interfacing to microprocessors and DSPs. Using only address decoding logic, the parts are easily mapped into the microprocessor address space. The EOC pulse allows the ADCs to be used in a standalone manner. (See Parallel Interface section of the data sheet.)
REV. B
Information furnished by Analog Devices is believed to be accurate and reliable. However, no responsibility is assumed by Analog Devices for its use, nor for any infringements of patents or other rights of third parties that may result from its use. No license is granted by implication or otherwise under any patent or patent rights of Analog Devices.
The AD7822 and AD7825 are available in a 20-/24-lead 0.3" wide, plastic dual-in-line package (DIP), a 20-/24-lead small outline IC (SOIC) and a 20-/24-lead thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP). The AD7829 is available in a 28-lead 0.6" wide, plastic dual-in-line package (DIP), a 28-lead small outline IC (SOIC) and in a 28-lead thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP).
1.Fast Conversion Time
The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 have a conversion time of 420 ns. Faster conversion times maximize the DSP processing time in a real-time system.
2.Analog Input Span Adjustment
The VMID pin allows the user to offset the input span. This feature can reduce the requirements of single-supply op amps and take into account any system offsets.
3.FPBW (Full Power Bandwidth) of Track-and-Hold
The track-and-hold amplifier has an excellent high-frequency performance. The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 are capable of converting full-scale input signals up to a frequency of 10 MHz. This makes the parts ideally suited to subsampling applications.
4.Channel Selection
Channel selection is made without the necessity of writing to the part.

NOTES
1Sample tested to ensure compliance.
2See Figures 20, 21, and 22.
3Measured with the load circuit of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for an output to cross 0.8 V or 2.4 V with V DD = 5 V ± 10%, and time required for an output to cross 0.4 V or 2.0 V with VDD = 3 V ± 10%.
4Derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 1. The measured number is then extrapolated back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the time, t 10, quoted in the timing characteristics is the true bus relinquish time of the part and as such is independent of external bus loading capacitances.

*Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Description |
|
|
VIN1 to VIN8 |
Analog Input Channels. The AD7822 has a single input channel; the AD7825 and AD7829 have four and eight |
|
analog input channels respectively. The inputs have an input span of 2.5 V and 2 V depending on the sup- |
|
ply voltage (VDD). This span may be centered anywhere in the range AGND to VDD using the VMID Pin. The |
|
default input range (VMID unconnected) is AGND to 2 V (VDD = 3 V ± 10%) or AGND to 2.5 V (VDD = 5 V |
|
± 10%). See Analog Input section of the data sheet for more information. |
VDD |
Positive supply voltage, 3 V ± 10% and 5 V ± 10%. |
AGND |
Analog Ground. Ground reference for track/hold, comparators, reference circuit and multiplexer. |
DGND |
Digital Ground. Ground reference for digital circuitry. |
CONVST |
Logic Input Signal. The convert start signal initiates an 8-bit analog-to-digital conversion on the falling edge of |
|
this signal. The falling edge of this signal places the track/hold in hold mode. The track/hold goes into track |
|
mode again 120 ns after the start of a conversion. The state of the CONVST signal is checked at the end of |
|
a conversion. If it is logic low, the AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 will power down. (See Operating Modes section |
|
of the data sheet.) |
EOC |
Logic Output. The End of Conversion signal indicates when a conversion has finished. The signal can be used |
|
to interrupt a microcontroller when a conversion has finished or latch data into a gate array. (See Parallel Inter- |
|
face section of this data sheet.) |
CS |
Logic input signal. The chip select signal is used to enable the parallel port of the AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829. |
|
This is necessary if the ADC is sharing a common data bus with another device. |
PD |
Logic Input. The Power-Down pin is present on the AD7822 and AD7825 only. Bringing the PD pin low |
|
places the AD7822 and AD7825 in Power-Down mode. The ADCs will power up when PD is brought logic |
|
high again. |
RD |
Logic Input Signal. The read signal is used to take the output buffers out of their high impedance state and |
|
drive data onto the data bus. The signal is internally gated with the CS signal. Both RD and CS must be logic |
|
low to enable the data bus. |
A0–A2 |
Channel Address Inputs. The address of the next multiplexer channel must be present on these inputs when the |
|
RD signal goes low. |
DB0–DB7 |
Data Output Lines. They are normally held in a high impedance state. Data is driven onto the data bus when |
|
both RD and CS go active low. |
VREF IN/OUT |
Analog Input and Output. An external reference can be connected to the AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 at this |
|
pin. The on-chip reference is also available at this pin. When using the internal reference, this pin can be |
|
left unconnected or, in some cases, it can be decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 F capacitor. |

AD7822/AD7825/AD7829
TERMINOLOGY
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio
This is the measured ratio of signal-to-(noise + distortion) at the output of the A/D converter. The signal is the rms amplitude of the fundamental. Noise is the rms sum of all nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc. The ratio is dependent upon the number of quantization levels in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization 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
Thus, for an 8-bit converter, this is 50 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 it is defined as:
V 2 +V 2 +V 2 +V 2 +V 2
= 2 3 4 5 6
THD (dB) 20 log
V1
where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 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 fS/2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for parts where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it will be a noise peak.
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 terms are those for which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For example, the second order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa – fb), while the third order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa – fb), (fa + 2fb) and (fa – 2fb).
The AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 are 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 distanced 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 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 four or eight channels of the AD7825 and AD7829, respectively.
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
The difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
Offset Error
The deviation of the 128th code transition (01111111) to (10000000) from the ideal, i.e., VMID.
Offset Error Match
The difference in offset error between any two channels.
Zero-Scale Error
The deviation of the first code transition (00000000) to (00000001) from the ideal, i.e., VMID – 1.25 V + 1 LSB (VDD = 5 V ± 10%), or VMID – 1.0 V + 1 LSB (VDD = 3 V ± 10%).
Full-Scale Error
The deviation of the last code transition (11111110) to (11111111) from the ideal, i.e., VMID + 1.25 V – 1 LSB (VDD = 5 V ± 10%), or VMID + 1.0 V – 1 LSB (VDD = 3 V ± 10%).
Gain Error
The deviation of the last code transition (1111 . . . 110) to (1111 . . . 111) from the ideal, i.e., VREF – 1 LSB, after the offset error has been adjusted out.
Gain Error Match
The difference in gain error between any two channels.
Track/Hold Acquisition Time
The time required for the output of the track/hold amplifier to reach its final value, within ±1/2 LSB, after the point at which
the track/hold returns to track mode. This happens approximately 120 ns after the falling edge of CONVST.
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 VIN input of the AD7822/ AD7825/AD7829. It means that the user must wait for the duration of the track/hold acquisition time after a channel change/step input change to VIN before starting another conversion, to ensure that the part operates to specification.
PSR (Power Supply Rejection)
Variations in power supply will affect the full-scale transition, but not the converter’s linearity. Power supply rejection is the maximum change in the full-scale transition point due to a change in power supply voltage from the nominal value.
The AD7822, AD7825, and AD7829 consist of a track-and-hold amplifier followed by a half-flash analog-to-digital converter. These devices use a half-flash conversion technique where one 4-bit flash ADC is used to achieve an 8-bit result. The 4-bit flash ADC contains a sampling capacitor followed by fifteen comparators that compare the unknown input to a reference ladder to achieve a 4-bit result. This first flash, i.e., coarse conversion, provides the 4 MSBs. For a full 8-bit reading to be realized, a second flash, i.e., a fine conversion, must be performed to provide the 4 LSBs. The 8-bit word is then placed on the data output bus.
