Integral Nonlinearity Error (INL)
Linearity error refers to the deviation of each individual code
f
rom a line drawn from negative full scale through positive fullscale. The point used as negative full scale occurs a ½ LSB before
the first code transition. Positive full scale is defined as a level
1½ LSBs beyond the last code transition. The deviation is measured from the middle of each code to the true straight line.
Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL)
In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. Differential
onlinearity is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It

codes are guaranteed.
Bipolar Zero Error
The difference between the ideal midscale input voltage (0 V)
nd the actual voltage producing the midscale output code.
a
Unipolar Offset Error
The first transition should occur at a level ½ LSB above analog
round. The unipolar offset error is the deviation of the actual
g
transition from that point.
Full-Scale Error
The last transition (from 111…10 to 111…11 in straight binary
for
mat) should occur for an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the
nominal full-scale. The full-scale error is the deviation in LSB
(or % of full-scale range) of the actual level of the last transition
from the ideal level and includes the effect of the offset error.
Closely related is the gain error (also in LSB or % of full-scale
range), which does not include the effects of the offset error.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is the ratio of the rms value of the full scale to
t
he rms noise measured for an input typically at −60 dB. The
value for dynamic range is expressed in decibels.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to
t
he rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is
expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first five harmonic
mponents to the rms value of a full-scale input signal and
co
is expressed in decibels.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SINAD)
SINAD is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to
t
he rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for
SINAD is expressed in decibels.

OVERVIEW
The AD7634 is a very fast, low power, precise, 18-bit ADC using
successive approximation capacitive digital-to-analog (CDAC)
architecture.
The AD7634 can be configured at any time for one of four input
anges and conversion mode with inputs in parallel and serial
r
hardware modes or by a dedicated write-only, SPI-compatible
interface via a configuration register in serial software mode.
The AD7634 uses Analog Devices’ patented iCMOS high voltage process to accommodate 0 V to +5 V (10 V p-p), 0 V to
+10 V (20 V p-p), ±5 V (20 V p-p), and ±10 V (40 V p-p) input
ranges on the fully differential IN+ and IN− inputs without the
use of conventional thin films. Only one acquisition cycle, t
required for the inputs to latch to the correct configuration. Resetting or power cycling is not required for reconfiguring the ADC.
The AD7634 features different modes to optimize performance
rding to the applications. It is capable of converting 670,000
acco
samples per second (670 kSPS) in warp mode, 570 kSPS in normal
mode, and 450 kSPS in impulse mode.
The AD7634 provides the user with an on-chip, track-and-hold,
s
uccessive approximation ADC that does not exhibit any pipeline or latency, making it ideal for multiple, multiplexed channel
applications.
For unipolar input ranges, the AD7634 typically requires three
pplies: VCC, AVDD (which can supply DVDD), and OVDD
su
(which can be interfaced to either 5 V, 3.3 V, or 2.5 V digital logic).
For bipolar input ranges, the AD7634 requires the use of the
additional VEE supply.
The device is housed in a Pb-fr
tiny LFCSP (7 mm × 7 mm) that combine space savings with
flexibility. In addition, the AD7634 can be configured as either
a parallel or serial SPI-compatible interface.

CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7634 is a successive approximation ADC based on a
charge redistribution DAC. Figure 25 shows the simplified
chematic of the ADC. The CDAC consists of two identical
s
arrays of 18 binary weighted capacitors, which are connected
to the two comparator inputs.
During the acquisition phase, terminals of the array tied to the
co
mparator’s input are connected to AGND via SW+ and SW−.
All independent switches are connected to the analog inputs. Thus,
the capacitor arrays are used as sampling capacitors and acquire
the analog signal on IN+ and IN− inputs. A conversion phase is
initiated once the acquisition phase is completed and the
CNVST
input goes low. When the conversion phase begins, SW+ and SW−
are opened first. The two capacitor arrays are then disconnected
from the inputs and connected to the REFGND input. Therefore,
the differential voltage between the inputs (IN+ and IN−) captured
at the end of the acquisition phase is applied to the comparator
inputs, causing the comparator to become unbalanced. By switching each element of the capacitor array between REFGND and
REF, the comparator input varies by binary weighted voltage
steps (V
REF
/2, V
/4 through V
REF
/ 262,144). The control logic
REF
toggles these switches, starting with the MSB first, to bring the
comparator back into a balanced condition.
After the completion of this process, the control logic generates
t
he ADC output code and brings the BUSY output low.
MODES OF OPERATION
The AD7634 features three modes of operation: warp, normal,
and impulse. Each of these modes is more suitable to specific
applications. The mode is configured with the input pins, WARP
and IMPULSE, or via the configuration register. See
e pin details; see the Hardware Configuration section and the
th
Software Configuration section for programming the mode
s
election with either pins or configuration register. Note that
when using the configuration register, the WARP and IMPULSE
inputs are don’t cares and should be tied to either high or low.
Table 6 for
Rev. 0 | Page 17 of 32
Page 18
AD7634
www.BDTIC.com/ADI
Warp Mode
Setting WARP = high and IMPULSE = low allows the fastest
nversion rate of up to 670 kSPS. However, in this mode, the
co
full-specified accuracy is guaranteed only when the time between
conversions does not exceed 1 ms. If the time between two
consecutive conversions is longer than 1 ms (after power-up),
the first conversion result should be ignored because in warp mode,
the ADC performs a background calibration during the SAR
conversion process. This calibration can drift if the time between
conversions exceeds 1 ms thus causing the first conversion to
appear offset. This mode makes the AD7634 ideal for applications
where both high accuracy and fast sample rate are required.
Normal Mode
Setting WARP = IMPULSE = low or WARP = IMPULSE = high
allows the fastest mode (570 kSPS) without any limitation on
time between conversions. This mode makes the AD7634 ideal
for asynchronous applications such as data acquisition systems,
where both high accuracy and fast sample rate are required.
Impulse Mode
Setting WARP = low and IMPULSE = high uses the lowest power
dissipation mode and allows power savings between conversions. The maximum throughput in this mode is 450 kSPS, and
in this mode, the ADC powers down circuits after conversion,
making the AD7634 ideal for battery-powered applications.
TRANSFER FUNCTIONS
Except in 18-bit parallel interface mode, using the D0/OB/2C
digital input or via the configuration register, the AD7634 offers
two output codings: straight binary and twos complement. See
Figure 26 and Tabl e 8 for the ideal transfer characteristic and
dig
ital output codes for the different analog input ranges, V
Note that when using the configuration register, the D0/OB/
input is a don’t care and should be tied to either high or low.

ANALOG INPUTS
Input Range Selection
In parallel mode and serial hardware mode, the input range is
selected by using the BIPOLAR (bipolar) and TEN (10 V range)
inputs. See Table 6 for pin details; see the Hardware Configuration
section and the Software Configuration section for programming the mode selection with either pins or configuration
register. Note that when using the configuration register, the
BIPOLAR and TEN inputs are don’t cares and should be tied
to either high or low.

Figure 28. AD7634 Simplified Analog Input
The four diodes, D1 to D4, provide ESD protection for the analog
inputs, IN+ and IN−. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog
input signal never exceeds the supply rails by more than 0.3 V,
because this causes the diodes to become forward-biased and
to start conducting current. These diodes can handle a forwardbiased current of 120 mA maximum. For instance, these conditions
could eventually occur when the input buffer’s U1 supplies are
different from AVDD, VCC, and VEE. In such a case, an input
buffer with a short-circuit current limitation can be used to protect
the part although most op amps’ short-circuit current is <100 mA.
Note that D3 and D4 are only used in the 0 V to 5 V range to
allow for additional protection in applications that are switching
from the higher voltage ranges.
This analog input structure of the AD7634 is a true differential
structure allowing the sampling of the differential signal between
IN+ and IN−. By using this differential input, small signals
common to both inputs are rejected as shown in Figure 29,
which represents the typical CMRR over frequency.

switches are opened, the input impedance is limited to C
PIN
.
Because the input impedance of the AD7634 is very high, it
can be directly driven by a low impedance source without gain
error. To further improve the noise filtering achieved by the
AD7634 analog input circuit, an external, one-pole RC filter
between the amplifier’s outputs and the ADC analog inputs can
be used, as shown in Figure 27. However, large source impedances significantly affect the ac performance, especially the
THD. The maximum source impedance depends on the amount
of THD that can be tolerated. The THD degrades as a function of
the source impedance and the maximum input frequency, as
shown in Figure 30.

DRIVER AMPLIFIER CHOICE
Although the AD7634 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier must
meet the following requirements:
•For multichannel, multiplexed applications, the driver ampli-
fier and the AD7634 analog input circuit must be able to
settle for a full-scale step of the capacitor array at a 18-bit
level (0.0004%). For the amplifier, settling at 0.1% to 0.01%
is more commonly specified. This differs significantly from
the settling time at a 18-bit level and should be verified
prior to driver selection. The AD8021 op amp combines ultralow noise and high gain bandwidth and meets this settling
time requirement even when used with gains of up to 13.
•The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be
kept as low as possible to preserve the SNR and transition
noise performance of the AD7634. The noise coming from
the driver is filtered by the external 1-pole low-pass filter,
as shown in Figure 27. The SNR degradation due to the
amplifier is

This approximation can be utilized when the resistances
used around the amplifiers are small. If larger resistances are
used, their noise contributions should also be root-sum
squared.
• The driver needs to have a THD performance suitable to
that of the AD7634. Figure 15 shows the THD vs. frequency
that the driver should exceed.
The AD8021 meets these requirements and is appropriate for
almost all applications. The AD8021 needs a 10 pF external
compensation capacitor that should have good linearity as an
NPO ceramic or mica type. Moreover, the use of a noninverting
+1 gain arrangement is recommended and helps to obtain the
best signal-to-noise ratio.
The AD8022 can also be used when a dual version is needed
and a gain of 1 is present. The AD829 is an alternative in applications where high frequency (above 100 kHz) performance is not
required. In applications with a gain of 1, an 82 pF compensation

capacitor is required. The AD8610 is an option when low bias
current is needed in low frequency applications.
Because the AD7634 uses a large geometry, high voltage input
switch, the best linearity performance is obtained when using
the amplifier at its maximum full power bandwidth. Gaining
the amplifier to make use of the more dynamic range of the
ADC results in increased linearity errors. For applications
requiring more resolution, the use of an additional amplifier
with gain should precede a unity follower driving the AD7634.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUT/OUTPUT
The AD7634 allows the choice of either a very low temperature
drift internal voltage reference, an external reference, or an
external buffered reference.
The internal reference of the AD7634 provides excellent performa
nce and can be used in almost all applications. However, the
linearity performance is guaranteed only with an external reference.
To use the internal reference, the PDREF and PDBUF inputs
must be low. This enables the on-chip, band gap reference, buffer,
and TEMP sensor, resulting in a 5.00 V reference on the REF pin.
The internal reference is temperature-compensated to 5.000 V
± 35 mV
3 ppm/°C. This typical drift characteristic is shown in
External 2.5 V Reference and Internal Buffer (REF = 5 V)
(PDREF = High, PDBUF = Low)
To use an external reference with the internal buffer, PDREF
should be high and PDBUF should be low. This powers down
the internal reference and allows the 2.5 V reference to be applied
to REFBUFIN producing 5 V on the REF pin. The internal reference buffer is useful in multiconverter applications because
a buffer is typically required in these applications to avoid
reference coupling amongst the different converters.
External 5 V Reference (PDREF = High, PDBUF = High)
To use an external reference directly on the REF pin, PDREF
and PDBUF should both be high. PDREF and PDBUF power
down the internal reference and the internal reference buffer,
respectively. For improved drift performance, an external reference, such as the
Reference Decoupling
Whether using an internal or external reference, the AD7634
voltage reference input (REF) has a dynamic input impedance;
therefore, it should be driven by a low impedance source with
efficient decoupling between the REF and REFGND inputs. This
decoupling depends on the choice of the voltage reference but
usually consists of a low ESR capacitor connected to REF and
REFGND with minimum parasitic inductance. A 22 µF (X5R,
1206 size) ceramic chip capacitor (or 47 µF low ESR tantalum
capacitor) is appropriate when using either the internal reference or the

For applications that use multiple AD7634 or other PulSAR

to buffer the external 2.5 V reference voltage.
The voltage reference temperature coefficient (TC) directly
pacts full scale; therefore, in applications where full-scale
im
accuracy matters, care must be taken with the TC. For instance,
a ±4 ppm/°C TC of the reference changes full scale by ±1 LSB/°C.
Temperature Sensor
The TEMP pin measures the temperature of the AD7634. To
improve the calibration accuracy over the temperature range, the
output of the TEMP pin is applied to one of the inputs of the
analog switch (such as ADG779), and the ADC itself is used to
m
easure its own temperature. This configuration is shown

• A
• V
CC: analog high voltage positive supply
•V
EE: high voltage negative supply
•D
VDD: digital 5 V core supply
•O
VDD: digital input/output interface supply
Core Supplies
The AVDD and DVDD supply the AD7634 analog and digital
cores, respectively. Sufficient decoupling of these supplies is
required consisting of at least a 10 F capacitor and a 100 nF
capacitor on each supply. The 100 nF capacitors should be
placed as close as possible to the AD7634. To reduce the number
of supplies needed, the DVDD can be supplied through a simple
RC filter from the analog supply, as shown in
High Voltage Supplies
The high voltage bipolar supplies, VCC and VEE, are required
and must be at least 2 V larger than the maximum input voltage.
For example, if using the ±10 V range, the supplies should be
±12 V minimum. This allows for 40 V p-p fully differential
input (±10 V on each input IN+ and IN−). Sufficient decoupling of these supplies is also required consisting of at least a
10 F capacitor and a 100 nF capacitor on each supply. For
unipolar operation, the VEE supply can be grounded with
some slight THD performance degradation.

Digital Output Supply
The OVDD supplies the digital outputs and allows direct interface
with any logic working between 2.3 V and 5.25 V. OVDD should
be set to the same level as the system interface. Sufficient decoupling is required consisting of at least a 10 F capacitor and a 100 nF
capacitor with the 100 nF capacitor placed as close as possible
to the AD7634.
Power Sequencing
The AD7634 is independent of power supply sequencing and is
very insensitive to power supply variations on AVDD over a wide
frequency range, as shown in Figure 33.

In impulse mode, the AD7634 automatically reduces its power
consumption at the end of each conversion phase. During the
acquisition phase, the operating currents are very low, which allows
a significant power savings when the conversion rate is reduced
(see
Figure 34). This feature makes the AD7634 ideal for very

INTERFACES
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The AD7634 has a versatile digital interface that can be set up as
either a serial or a parallel interface with the host system. The
serial interface is multiplexed on the parallel data bus. The AD7634
digital interface also accommodates 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V logic. In
most applications, the OVDD supply pin is connected to the host
system interface 2.5 V to 5.25 V digital supply. Finally, by using the

The RESET input is used to reset the AD7634. A rising edge on

SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD7634 is configured to use the serial interface
when MODE[1:0]= 3. The AD7634 has a serial interface
(SPI-compatible) multiplexed on the data pins D[17:4].
Data Interface
The AD7634 outputs 18 bits of data, MSB first, on the SDOUT pin.
This data is synchronized with the 18 clock pulses provided on
the SDCLK pin. The output data is valid on both the rising and
falling edge of the data clock.

Internal Clock (MODE[1:0] = 3, EXT/
The AD7634 is configured to generate and provide the serial
data clock, SDCLK, when the EXT/
AD7634 also generates a SYNC signal to indicate to the host
when the serial data is valid. The SDCLK and the SYNC signals
can be inverted, if desired, using the INVSCLK and INVSYNC
inputs, respectively. Depending on the input, RDC, the data
can be read during the following conversion or after each conversion.
o
Figure 41 and Figure 42 show detailed timing diagrams
f the following two modes.
Read During Convert (RDC = High)
Setting RDC = high allows the master read (previous conversion result) during conversion mode. Usually, because the
AD7634 is used with a fast throughput, this mode is the most
recommended serial mode. In this mode, the serial clock and data
switch on and off at appropriate instances, minimizing potential
feedthrough between digital activity and critical conversion
decisions. In this mode, the SDCLK period changes because the
LSBs require more time to settle and the SDCLK is derived
from the SAR conversion cycle. In this mode, the AD7634
generates a discontinuous SDCLK of two different periods
and the host should use an SPI interface.
Read After Covert (RDC = Low, DIVSCLK[1:0] = 0 to 3)
Setting RDC = low allows the read after conversion mode. Unlike
the other serial modes, the BUSY signal returns low after the 18
data bits are pulsed out and not at the end of the conversion phase,
resulting in a longer BUSY width (See
ecifications). The DIVSCLK[1:0] inputs control the SDCLK
sp
period and SDOUT data rate. As a result, the maximum throughput cannot be achieved in this mode. In this mode, the AD7634
also generates a discontinuous SDCLK; however, a fixed period and
hosts supporting both SPI and serial ports can also be used.

While the AD7634 is performing a bit decision, it is important
th
at voltage transients be avoided on digital input/output pins,
or degradation of the conversion result may occur. This is particularly important during the last 550 ns of the conversion phase
because the AD7634 provides error correction circuitry that can
correct for an improper bit decision made during the first part
of the conversion phase. For this reason, it is recommended that
any external clock provided is a discontinuous clock that transitions only when BUSY is low or, more importantly, that it does not
transition during the last 450 ns of BUSY high.

on the SDCLK frequency, can be valid on the falling and rising

interface during the conversion process. Another advantage is
the ability to read the data at any speed up to 40 MHz, which
accommodates both the slow digital host interface and the fastest
serial reading.
Daisy-Chain Feature
Also in the read after convert mode, the AD7634 provides a daisychain feature for cascading multiple converters together using the
serial data input pin, SDIN. This feature is useful for reducing
component count and wiring connections when desired, for
instance, in isolated multiconverter applications. See

Simultaneous sampling is possible by using a common

External Clock Data Read During Previous Conversion
Figure 45 shows the detailed timing diagrams for this method.
CS
During a conversion, while both
and RD are low, the result
of the previous conversion can be read. The data is shifted out,
MSB first, with 18 clock pulses, and depending on the SDCLK
frequency, data can be valid on both the falling and rising edges
of the clock. The 18 bits have to be read before the current
conversion is complete; otherwise, RDERROR is pulsed high
and can be used to interrupt the host interface to prevent
incomplete data reading.
To reduce performance degradation due to digital activity, a fast
continuous clock of at least 40 MHz is recommended to ensure
dis
that all the bits are read during the first half of the SAR conversion phase.
The daisy-chain feature should not be used in this mode because
dig
ital activity occurs during the second half of the SAR conver-
sion phase likely resulting in performance degradation.

External Clock Data Read After/During Conversion
It is also possible to begin to read data after conversion and
continue to read the last bits after a new conversion is initiated.
This method allows the full throughput and the use of a slower

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
The AD7634 can be configured at any time with the dedicated
2C
hardware pins WARP, IMPULSE, BIPOLAR, TEN, D0/OB/
,
and PD for parallel mode (MODE[1:0] = 0, 1, or 2) or serial
hardware mode (MODE[1:0] = 3, HW/
SW
= high). Programming
the AD7634 for mode selection and input range configuration
can be done before or during conversion. Like the RESET input,
the ADC requires at least one acquisition time to settle as indicated in
t
Figure 46. See Tabl e 6 for pin descriptions. Note that
hese inputs are high impedance when using the software
configuration mode.
SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
The pins multiplexed on D[17:14] used for software configura-
SW
tion are: HW/
, SCIN, SCCLK, and
programmed using the dedicated write-only serial configurable
port (SCP) for conversion mode, input range selection, output
coding, and power-down using the serial configuration register.
See
Table 11 for details of each bit in the configuration register.
e SCP can only be used in serial software mode selected with
Th
MODE[1:0] = 3 and HW/
SW
= low because the port is multi-
plexed on the parallel interface.
The SCP is accessed by asserting the port’s chip select,
and then writing SCIN synchronized with SCCLK, which (like
SDCLK) is edge sensitive depending on the state of INVSCLK.
See Figure 47 for timing details. SCIN is clocked into the conf
iguration register MSB first. The configuration register is an
internal shift register that begins with Bit 8, the START bit. The
th
9
SCCLK edge updates the register and allows the new settings to
be used. As indicated in the timing diagram, at least one acquisition
time is required from the 9
th
SCCLK edge. Bits [1:0] are reserved
bits and are not written to while the SCP is being updated.
The SCP can be written to at any time, up to 40 MHz, and it
is r
ecommended to write to while the AD7634 is not busy con-
verting, as detailed in
ot attainable because the time required for SCP access is
is n
(t
+ 9 × 1/ SCCLK + t8) minimum. If the full throughput is

it is not recommended to write to the SCP during the last 600 ns
of conversion (BUSY = high) or performance degradation can
result. In addition, the SCP can be accessed in both serial master
and serial slave read during and read after convert modes.
Note that at power up, the configuration register is undefined.
The RES
ET input clears the configuration register (sets all bits
to 0), thus placing the configuration to 0 V to 5 V input, normal
mode, and twos complemented output.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The AD7634 is ideally suited for traditional dc measurement
applications supporting a microprocessor, and ac signal processing applications interfacing to a digital signal processor. The
AD7634 is designed to interface with a parallel 8-bit or 18-bit wide
interface, or with a general-purpose serial port or I/O ports on a
microcontroller. A variety of external buffers can be used with
the AD7634 to prevent digital noise from coupling into the ADC.
SPI Interface
The AD7634 is compatible with SPI and QSPI digital hosts
and DSPs, such as Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x and ADSP-218x/
ADSP-219x. Figure 48 shows an interface diagram between
th
e AD7634 and the SPI-equipped ADSP-219x. To accommodate the slower speed of the DSP, the AD7634 acts as a slave
device, and data must be read after conversion. This mode also
allows the daisy-chain feature. The convert command could be
initiated in response to an internal timer interrupt.
t

OB/2C
WARP

The reading process can be initiated in response to the end-ofco
nversion signal (BUSY going low) using an interrupt line of
the DSP. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) on the ADSP-219x
is configured for master mode (MSTR) = 1, clock polarity bit
(CPOL) = 0, clock phase bit (CPHA) = 1, and SPI interrupt enable
(TIMOD) = 0 by writing to the SPI control register (SPICLTx).
It should be noted that to meet all timing requirements, the SPI
c
lock should be limited to 17 Mbps allowing it to read an ADC
result in less than 1.1 µs. When a higher sampling rate is desired,
use one of the parallel interface modes.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
LAYOUT GUIDELINES
While the AD7634 has very good immunity to noise on the
power supplies, exercise care with the grounding layout. To facilitate the use of ground planes that can be easily separated, design
the printed circuit board that houses the AD7634 so that the
analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain
areas of the board. Digital and analog ground planes should be
joined in only one place, preferably underneath the AD7634, or
as close as possible to the AD7634. If the AD7634 is in a system
where multiple devices require analog-to-digital ground connections, the connections should still be made at one point only, a
star ground point, established as close as possible to the AD7634.
To prevent coupling noise onto the die, avoid radiating noise,

• R
angles to each other, to reduce the effect of feedthrough through
the board.
The power supply lines to the AD7634 should use as large a trace
a
s possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect
of glitches on the power supply lines. Good decoupling is also
important to lower the impedance of the supplies presented to
the AD7634, and to reduce the magnitude of the supply spikes.
Decoupled ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF, should be placed
on each of the power supplies pins, AVDD, DVDD, and OVDD,
VCC, and VEE. The capacitors should be placed close to, and
ideally right up against, these pins and their corresponding ground
pins. Additionally, low ESR 10 µF capacitors should be located
in the vicinity of the ADC to further reduce low frequency ripple.

The DVDD supply of the AD7634 can be either a separate supply
come from the analog supply, AVDD, or from the digital
or
interface supply, OVDD. When the system digital supply is noisy,
or fast switching digital signals are present, and no separate supply
is available, it is recommended to connect the DVDD digital supply
to the analog supply AVDD through an RC filter, and to connect
the system supply to the interface digital supply OVDD and the
remaining digital circuitry. See

it is useful to insert a bead to further reduce high frequency spikes.
