GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7665 is a 16-bit, 570 kSPS, charge redistribution SAR,
analog-to-digital converter that operates from a single 5 V power
supply. It contains a high speed 16-bit sampling ADC, a resistor
input scaler that allows various input ranges, an internal conversion clock, error correction circuits, and both serial and parallel
system interface ports.
The AD7665 is hardware factory-calibrated and is comprehensively tested to ensure such ac parameters as signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) and total harmonic distortion (THD), in addition to the
more traditional dc parameters of gain, offset, and linearity.
It features a very high sampling rate mode (Warp), a fast mode
(Normal) for asynchronous conversion rate applications, and for
low power applications, a reduced power mode (Impulse) where
the power is scaled with the throughput.

DEFINITION OF SPECIFICATIONS
Internal Nonlinearity Error (INL)
Linearity error refers to the deviation of each individual code
from a line drawn from “negative full scale” through “positive
full scale.” The point used as negative full scale occurs 1/2 LSB
before the first code transition. Positive full scale is defined as a
level 1 1/2 LSB 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
nonlinearity is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It is
often specified in terms of resolution for which no missing codes
are guaranteed.
Full-Scale Error
The last transition (from 011 . . . 10 to 011 ...11 in twos
complement coding) should occur for an analog voltage 1 1/2 LSB
below the nominal full scale (2.499886 V for the ±2.5 V range).
The full-scale error is the deviation of the actual level of the last
transition from the ideal level.
Bipolar Zero Error
The difference between the ideal midscale input voltage (0 V) and
the actual voltage producing the midscale output code.
Unipolar Zero Error
In Unipolar Mode, the first transition should occur at a level
1/2 LSB above analog ground. The unipolar zero error is the
deviation of the actual transition from that point.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The difference, in decibels (dB), between the rms amplitude of
the input signal and the peak spurious signal.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
A measurement of the resolution with a sine wave input. It is
related to S/(N+D) by the following formula:
ENOBS ND
and is expressed in bits.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The rms sum of the first five harmonic components to the rms
value of a full-scale input signal, expressed in decibels.
Signal-To-Noise Ratio (SNR)
The ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the
rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is
expressed in decibels.
Signal To (Noise + Distortion) Ratio (S/[N+D])
The ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the rms sum
of all other spectral components below the Nyquist frequency,
including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for S/(N+D) is
expressed in decibels.
Aperture Delay
A measure of the acquisition performance measured from the
falling edge of the CNVST input to when the input signal is
held for a conversion.
Transient Response
The time required for the AD7665 to achieve its rated accuracy
after a full-scale step function is applied to its input.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7665 is a fast, low power, single-supply, precise 16-bit
analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The AD7665 features different
modes to optimize performances according to the applications.
In Warp Mode, the AD7665 is capable of converting 570,000
samples per second (570 kSPS).
The AD7665 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold,
successive approximation ADC that does not exhibit any pipeline
or latency, making it ideal for multiple multiplexed channel
applications.
It is specified to operate with both bipolar and unipolar input
ranges by changing the connection of its input resistive scaler.
The AD7665 can be operated from a single 5 V supply and be
interfaced to either 5 V or 3 V digital logic. It is housed in a
48-lead LQFP package or a 48-lead LFCSP package that combines space savings and flexible configurations as either serial
or parallel interface. The AD7665 is a pin-to-pin compatible
upgrade of the AD7663 and AD7664.
CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7665 is a successive approximation analog-to-digital
converter based on a charge redistribution DAC. Figure 3 shows
the simplified schematic of the ADC. The input analog signal is
first scaled down and level shifted by the internal input resistive
scaler, which allows both unipolar ranges (0 V to 2.5 V, 0 V to 5 V,
and 0 V to 10 V) and bipolar ranges (±2.5 V, ±5 V, and ±10 V). The
output voltage range of the resistive scaler is always 0 V to 2.5 V.
The capacitive DAC consists of an array of 16 binary weighted
capacitors and an additional “LSB” capacitor. The comparator’s
negative input is connected to a “dummy” capacitor of the same
value as the capacitive DAC array.
During the acquisition phase, the common terminal of the array
tied to the comparator’s positive input is connected to AGND
via SW
. All independent switches are connected to the output
A
of the resistive scaler. Thus, the capacitor array is used as a
sampling capacitor and acquires the analog signal. Similarly, the
dummy capacitor acquires the analog signal on INGND input.
When the acquisition phase is complete, and the CNVST input goes
or is LOW, a conversion phase is initiated. When the conversion
phase begins, SW
and SWB are opened first. The capacitor array
A
and the dummy capacitor are then disconnected from the inputs
and connected to the REFGND input. Therefore, the differential
voltage between the output of the resistive scaler and INGND
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
or REF, the comparator input varies by binary weighted voltage
–12–
steps (V
REF
/2, V
/4 ...V
REF
/65,536). The control logic toggles
REF
these switches, starting with the MSB first, in order to bring the
comparator back into a balanced condition. After the completion
of this process, the control logic generates the ADC output code
and brings BUSY output LOW.
Modes of Operation
The AD7665 features three modes of operation, Warp, Normal,
and Impulse. Each of these modes is more suitable for specific
applications.
The Warp Mode allows the fastest conversion rate up to 570 kSPS.
However, in this mode and this mode only, the full specified accuracy is guaranteed only when the time between conversion does
not exceed 1 ms. If the time between two consecutive conversions
is longer than 1 ms, for instance, after power-up, the first conversion result should be ignored. This mode makes the AD7665
ideal for applications where both high accuracy and fast sample
rate are required.
The Normal Mode is the fastest mode (500 kSPS) without any
limitation about the time between conversions. This mode makes
the AD7665 ideal for asynchronous applications such as data
acquisition systems, where both high accuracy and fast sample
rate are required.
The Impulse Mode, the lowest power dissipation mode, allows
power saving between conversions. The maximum throughput in
this mode is 444 kSPS. When operating at 100 SPS, for example,
it typically consumes only 15 µW. This feature makes the AD7665
ideal for battery-powered applications.
Transfer Functions
Using the OB/2C digital input, the AD7665 offers two output
codings: straight binary and twos complement. The ideal transfer
characteristic for the AD7665 is shown in Figure 4 and Table III.

AD7665
Analog Inputs
The AD7665 is specified to operate with six full-scale analog input
ranges. Connections required for each of the four analog inputs,
IND, INC, INB, and INA, and the resulting full-scale ranges are
shown in Table I. The typical input impedance for each analog
input range is also shown.
Figure 6 shows a simplified analog input section of the AD7665.
The four resistors connected to the four analog inputs form a
resistive scaler that scales down and shifts the analog input range
to a common input range of 0 V to 2.5 V at the input of the
switched capacitive ADC.

Figure 6. Simplified Analog Input
By connecting the four inputs INA, INB, INC, and IND to the
input signal itself, the ground, or a 2.5 V reference, other analog
input ranges can be obtained.
The diodes shown in Figure 6 provide ESD protection for the
four analog inputs. The inputs INB, INC, and IND have a high
voltage protection (–11 V to +30 V) to allow a wide input voltage
range. Care must be taken to ensure that the analog input signal
never exceeds the absolute ratings on these inputs, including
INA (0 V to 5 V). This will cause these diodes to become forwardbiased and start conducting current. These diodes can handle a
forward-biased current of 120 mA maximum. For instance, when
using the 0 V to 2.5 V input range, these conditions could eventually occur on the input INA when the input buffer’s (U1) supplies
are different from AVDD. In such cases, an input buffer with a
short circuit current limitation can be used to protect the part.

This analog input structure allows the sampling of the differential
signal between the output of the resistive scaler and INGND.
Unlike other converters, the INGND input is sampled at the same
time as the inputs. By using this differential input, small signals
common to both inputs are rejected as shown in Figure 7, which
represents the typical CMRR over frequency. For instance, by using
INGND to sense a remote signal ground, the difference of ground
potentials between the sensor and the local ADC ground is eliminated.
During the acquisition phase for ac signals, the AD7665 behaves
like a one-pole RC filter consisting of the equivalent resistance
of the resistive scaler R/2 in series with R1 and C
. The resistor
S
R1 is typically 100 W and is a lumped component made up of
some serial resistors and the on resistance of the switches. The
capacitor C
is typically 60 pF and is mainly the ADC sampling
S
capacitor. This one-pole filter with a typical –3 dB cutoff frequency
of 3.6 MHz reduces undesirable aliasing effects and limits the
noise coming from the inputs.
Except when using the 0 V to 2.5 V analog input voltage range, the
AD7665 has to be driven by a very low impedance source to avoid
gain errors. That can be done by using a driver amplifier whose
choice is eased by the primarily resistive analog input circuitry of
the AD7665.
When using the 0 V to 2.5 V analog input voltage range, the input
impedance of the AD7665 is very high so the AD7665 can be
driven directly by a low impedance source without gain error.
That allows, as shown in Figure 5, putting an external one-pole
RC filter between the output of the amplifier output and the ADC
analog inputs to even further improve the noise filtering done by
the AD7665 analog input circuit. However, the source impedance
has to be kept low because it affects the ac performances, especially
the total harmonic distortion (THD). The maximum source
impedance depends on the amount of total THD that can be
tolerated. The THD degradation is a function of the source impedance and the maximum input frequency as shown in Figure 8.

AD7665
Driver Amplifier Choice
Although the AD7665 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier needs
to meet at least the following requirements:
∑ The driver amplifier and the AD7665 analog input circuit
must be able, together, to settle for a full-scale step the capacitor
array at a 16-bit level (0.0015%). In the amplifier’s data sheet,
the settling at 0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified.
It could significantly differ from the settling time at a 16-bit
level and it should therefore be verified prior to the driver
selection. The tiny op amp AD8021, which combines ultralow
noise and a high gain bandwidth, meets this settling time
requirement even when used with a high gain up to 13.
∑ The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be kept
as low as possible in order to preserve the SNR and transition noise performance of the AD7665. The noise coming
from the driver is first scaled down by the resistive scaler
according to the analog input voltage range used and is then
filtered by the AD7665 analog input circuit one-pole, low-pass
filter made by (R/2 + R1) and C
. The SNR degradation due
S
to the amplifier is

FSR is the full-scale span (i.e., 5 V for ±2.5 V range).
For instance, when using the 0 V to 2.5 V range, a driver
like the AD8021, with an equivalent input noise of 2 nV/÷Hz
and configured as a buffer, thus with a noise gain of 1, the
SNR degrades by only 0.12 dB.
∑ The driver needs to have a THD performance suitable to
that of the AD7665. TPC 11 gives the THD versus frequency
that the driver should preferably exceed.
The AD8021 meets these requirements and is usually appropriate
for almost all applications. The AD8021 needs an external compensation capacitor of 10 pF. This capacitor should have good
linearity as an NPO ceramic or mica type.
The AD8022 could also be used where a dual version is needed
and a gain of 1 is used.
The AD829 is another alternative where high frequency (above
100 kHz) performance is not required. In a gain of 1, it requires
an 82 pF compensation capacitor.
The AD8610 is another option where low bias current is needed
in low frequency applications.
Voltage Reference Input
The AD7665 uses an external 2.5 V voltage reference.
The voltage reference input REF of the AD7665 has a dynamic
input impedance; it should therefore be driven by a low impedance
source with an efficient decoupling between REF and REFGND
inputs. This decoupling depends on the choice of the voltage
reference but usually consists of a 1 µF ceramic capacitor and a
low ESR tantalum capacitor connected to the REF and REFGND
inputs with minimum parasitic inductance. 47 µF is an appropriate
value for the tantalum capacitor when used with one of the
recommended reference voltages:
∑ The low noise, low temperature drift ADR421 and AD780
voltage references
∑ The low power ADR291 voltage reference
∑ The low cost AD1582 voltage reference
For applications using multiple AD7665s, it is more effective to
buffer the reference voltage with a low noise, very stable op amp
like the AD8031.
Care should also be taken with the reference temperature coefficient of the voltage reference that directly affects the full-scale
accuracy if this parameter matters. For instance, a ±15 ppm/°C
tempco of the reference changes the full scale by ±1 LSB/°C.
Note that V
, as mentioned in the Specification tables, could
REF
be increased to AVDD – 1.85 V. The benefit here is the increased
SNR obtained as a result of this increase. Since the input range
is defined in terms of V
, this would essentially increase the
REF
±REF range from ±2.5 V to ±3 V and so on with an AVDD above
4.85 V. The theoretical improvement as a result of this increase
in reference is 1.58 dB (20 log [3/2.5]). Due to the theoretical
quantization noise, however, the observed improvement is approximately 1 dB. The AD780 can be selected with a 3 V reference
voltage.
Scaler Reference Input (Bipolar Input Ranges)
When using the AD7665 with bipolar input ranges, the connection
diagram in Figure 5 shows a reference buffer amplifier. This
buffer amplifier is required to isolate the REF pin from the signal
dependent current in the INx pin. A high speed op amp such as
the AD8031 can be used with a single 5 V power supply without
degrading the performance of the AD7665. The buffer must have
good settling characteristics and provide low total noise within
the input bandwidth of the AD7665.
Power Supply
The AD7665 uses three sets of power supply pins: an analog
5V supply AVDD, a digital 5 V core supply DVDD, and a digital
input/output interface supply OVDD. The OVDD supply allows
direct interface with any logic working between 2.7 V and DVDD
+ 0.3 V. To reduce the number of supplies needed, the digital
core (DVDD) can be supplied through a simple RC filter from
the analog supply as shown in Figure 5. The AD7665 is independent of power supply sequencing, once OVDD does not exceed
DVDD by more than 0.3 V, and thus free from supply voltage
induced latch-up. Additionally, it is very insensitive to power
supply variations over a wide frequency range as shown in Figure 9.

POWER DISSIPATION
In Impulse Mode, the AD7665 automatically reduces its power
consumption at the end of each conversion phase. During the
acquisition phase, the operating currents are very low, which
allows significant power savings when the conversion rate is
reduced, as shown in Figure 10. This feature makes the AD7665
ideal for very low power battery applications.

This does not take into account the power, if any, dissipated by
the input resistive scaler, which depends on the input voltage
range used and the analog input voltage even in Power-Down
Mode. There is no power dissipated when the 0 V to 2.5 V is
used or when both the analog input voltage is 0 V and a unipolar
range, 0 V to 5 V or 0 V to 10 V, is used.
It should be noted that the digital interface remains active even
during the acquisition phase. To reduce the operating digital
supply currents even further, the digital inputs need to be driven
close to the power rails (i.e., DVDD and DGND) and OVDD
should not exceed DVDD by more than 0.3 V.
CONVERSION CONTROL
Figure 11 shows the detailed timing diagrams of the conversion
process. The AD7665 is controlled by the signal CNVST, which
initiates conversion. Once initiated, it cannot be restarted or
aborted, even by the power-down input PD, until the conversion
is complete. The CNVST signal operates independently of CS
and RD signals.

Figure 11. Basic Conversion Timing
In Impulse Mode, conversions can be automatically initiated. If
CNVST is held LOW when BUSY is LOW, the AD7665 controls
the acquisition phase and then automatically initiates a new
conversion. By keeping CNVST LOW, the AD7665 keeps the
conversion process running by itself. It should be noted that the
analog input has to be settled when BUSY goes LOW. Also,
at power-up, CNVST should be brought LOW once to initiate
the conversion process. In this mode, the AD7665 could sometimes run slightly faster than the guaranteed limits in the Impulse
Mode of 444 kSPS. This feature does not exist in Warp or
Normal Modes.
Although CNVST is a digital signal, it should be designed with
special care with fast, clean edges, and levels with minimum
overshoot and undershoot or ringing. It is a good thing to shield
the CNVST trace with ground and also to add a low value serial
resistor (i.e., 50 V) termination close to the output of the component that drives this line.
For applications where the SNR is critical, the CNVST signal
should have a very low jitter. To achieve this, some use a
dedicated oscillator for CNVST generation, or at least to clock
it with a high frequency low jitter clock as shown in Figure 5.

DIGITAL INTERFACE
The AD7665 has a versatile digital interface; it can be interfaced
with the host system by using either a serial or parallel interface.
The serial interface is multiplexed on the parallel data bus. The
AD7665 digital interface also accommodates both 3 V or 5 V
logic by simply connecting the OVDD supply pin of the AD7665
to the host system interface digital supply. Finally, by using the
OB/2C input pin, twos complement and straight binary coding
can be used.
The two signals CS and RD control the interface. When at least
one of these signals is HIGH, the interface outputs are in high
impedance. Usually, CS allows the selection of each AD7665 in
multicircuit applications and is held LOW in a single AD7665
design. RD is generally used to enable the conversion result on
the data bus.

The BYTESWAP pin allows a glueless interface to an 8-bit bus.
As shown in Figure 16, the LSB is output on D[7:0] and the
MSB is output on D[15:8] when BYTESWAP is LOW. When
BYTESWAP is HIGH, the LSB and MSB are swapped and the
LSB is output on D[15:8] and the MSB is output on D[7:0].
By connecting BYTESWAP to an address line, the 16 data bits
can be read in two bytes on either D[15:8] or D[7:0].

PARALLEL INTERFACE
The AD7665 is configured to use the parallel interface when the
SER/PAR is held LOW. The data can be read either after each
conversion, which is during the next acquisition phase, or during
the following conversion as shown in Figures 14 and 15, respectively. When the data is read during the conversion, however,
it is recommended that it be read-only during the first half of the
conversion phase. That avoids any potential feedthrough between
voltage transients on the digital interface and the most critical
analog conversion circuitry.

The AD7665 is configured to use the serial interface when the

the 16 clock pulses provided on the SCLK pin. The output data
is valid on both the rising and falling edge of the data clock.
MASTER SERIAL INTERFACE
Internal Clock
The AD7665 is configured to generate and provide the serial data
clock SCLK when the EXT/INT pin is held LOW. It also generates a SYNC signal to indicate to the host when the serial data is
valid. The serial clock SCLK and the SYNC signal can be inverted
if desired. Depending on RDC/SDIN input, the data can be
read after each conversion or during conversion. Figures 17
and 18 show the detailed timing diagrams of these two modes.
Usually, because the AD7665 is used with a fast throughput, the
mode master, read during conversion, is the most recommended
Serial Mode when it can be used.

In Read-during-Conversion Mode, the serial clock and data toggle
at appropriate instants, which minimizes potential feedthrough
between digital activity and the critical conversion decisions.
In Read-after-Conversion Mode, it should be noted that unlike
in other modes, the signal BUSY returns LOW after the 16 data
bits are pulsed out and not at the end of the conversion phase,
which results in a longer BUSY width.
SLAVE SERIAL INTERFACE
External Clock
The AD7665 is configured to accept an externally supplied serial
data clock on the SCLK pin when the EXT/INT pin is held
HIGH. In this mode, several methods can be used to read the
data. The external serial clock is gated by CS and the data are
output when both CS and RD are LOW. Thus, depending on CS,
the data can be read after each conversion or during the following conversion. The external clock can be either a continuous or
discontinuous clock. A discontinuous clock can be either normally
HIGH or normally LOW when inactive. Figures 19 and 21 show
the detailed timing diagrams of these methods.
While the AD7665 is performing a bit decision, it is important
that voltage transients not occur on digital input/output pins or
degradation of the conversion result could occur. This is particularly important during the second half of the conversion phase
because the AD7665 provides error correction circuitry that can
correct for an improper bit decision made during the first half of
the conversion phase. For this reason, it is recommended that
when an external clock is being provided, it is a discontinuous clock
that is toggling only when BUSY is LOW or, more importantly,
that does not transition during the latter half of BUSY HIGH.
External Discontinuous Clock Data Read after Conversion
Though the maximum throughput cannot be achieved using this
mode, it is the most recommended of the serial slave modes.
Figure 19 shows the detailed timing diagrams of this method.
After a conversion is complete, indicated by BUSY returning
LOW, the result of this conversion can be read while both CS
and RD are LOW. The data is shifted out, MSB first, with

16 clock pulses and is valid on both the rising and falling edge
of the clock.
Among the advantages of this method, the conversion performance
is not degraded because there are no voltage transients on the
digital interface during the conversion process.
Another advantage is to be able to read the data at any speed up
to 40 MHz, which accommodates both slow digital host interface
and the fastest serial reading.
Finally, in this mode only, the AD7665 provides a “daisy-chain”
feature using the RDC/SDIN input pin for cascading multiple
converters together. This feature is useful for reducing component
count and wiring connections when desired as, for instance, in
isolated multiconverter applications.
An example of the concatenation of two devices is shown in
Figure 20. Simultaneous sampling is possible by using a common CNVST signal. It should be noted that the RDC/SDIN
input is latched on the opposite edge of SCLK of the one used
to shift out the data on SDOUT. Therefore, the MSB of the
“upstream” converter just follows the LSB of the “downstream”
converter on the next SCLK cycle.

Figure 21. Slave Serial Data Timing for Reading (Read Previous Conversion during Convert)
External Clock Data Read during Conversion
Figure 21 shows the detailed timing diagrams of this method. During a conversion, while both CS and RD are LOW, the result of
the previous conversion can be read. The data is shifted out, MSB
first, with 16 clock pulses and is valid on both the rising and
falling edge of the clock. The 16 bits have to be read before the
current conversion is complete. If that is not done, RDERROR
is pulsed HIGH and can be used to interrupt the host interface to
prevent incomplete data reading. There is no daisy-chain feature
in this mode, and RDC/SDIN input should always be tied either
HIGH or LOW.
To reduce performance degradation due to digital activity, a fast
discontinuous clock, at least 25 MHz when Impulse Mode is
used or 40 MHz when Normal or Warp Mode is used, is recommended to ensure that all the bits are read during the first half
of the conversion phase. It is also possible to begin to read the
data after conversion and continue to read the last bits even after
a new conversion has been initiated. That allows the use of a slower
clock speed like 10 MHz in Impulse Mode, 12 MHz in Normal
Mode, and 15 MHz in Warp Mode.

signal (BUSY going LOW) using an interrupt line of the microcontroller. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) on the MC68HC11
is configured for Master Mode (MSTR) = 1, Clock Polarity Bit
(CPOL) = 0, Clock Phase Bit (CPHA) = 1, and SPI interrupt
enable (SPIE) = 1 by writing to the SPI Control Register (SPCR).

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The AD7665 is ideally suited for traditional dc measurement
applications supporting a microprocessor and ac signal processing
applications interfacing to a digital signal processor. The AD7665
is designed to interface with either a parallel 8-bit or 16-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 AD7665 to prevent digital noise from coupling into the ADC.
The following sections illustrate the use of the AD7665 with
an SPI-equipped microcontroller, the ADSP-21065L and
ADSP-218x signal processors.
SPI Interface (MC68HC11)
Figure 22 shows an interface diagram between the AD7665 and
an SPI-equipped microcontroller, such as the MC68HC11. To
accommodate the slower speed of the microcontroller, the
AD7665 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. The reading of output data, one byte at a time, if

ADSP-21065L in Master Serial Interface
As shown in Figure 23, the AD7665 can be interfaced to the
ADSP-21065L using the serial interface in Master Mode without
any glue logic required. This mode combines the advantages of
reducing the wire connections and the ability to read the data during
or after conversion at maximum speed transfer (DIVSCLK[0:1]
both low).
The AD7665 is configured for the Internal Clock Mode
(EXT/INT LOW) and acts therefore as the master device. The
convert command can be generated by either an external low jitter
oscillator or, as shown, by a FLAG output of the ADSP-21065L
or by a frame output TFS of one Serial Port of the ADSP-21065L
that can be used like a timer. The Serial Port on the ADSP21065L is configured for external clock (IRFS = 0), rising edge
active (CKRE = 1), external late framed sync signals (IRFS = 0,
LAFS = 1, RFSR = 1), and active HIGH (LRFS = 0). The Serial
Port of the ADSP-21065L is configured by writing to its receive
control register (SRCTL)—see ADSP-2106x SHARC User’s
Manual. Because the Serial Port within the ADSP-21065L will

be seeing a discontinuous clock, an initial word reading has to be
done after the ADSP-21065L has been reset to ensure that the
Serial Port is properly synchronized to this clock during each
following data read operation.

Layout
The AD7665 has very good immunity to noise on the power
supplies as can be seen in Figure 9. However, care should still
be taken with regard to grounding layout.
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7665 should be
designed so the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the use of ground
planes that can be easily separated. Digital and analog ground
planes should be joined in only one place, preferably underneath
the AD7665, or at least as close as possible to the AD7665. If the
AD7665 is in a system where multiple devices require analog-todigital ground 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 AD7665.
It is recommended to 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 AD7665 to avoid noise
coupling. Fast switching signals like CNVST or clocks should
be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other
sections of the board and should never run near analog signal
paths. Crossover of digital and analog signals should be avoided.
Traces on different but close layers of the board should run at right
angles to each other. This will reduce the effect of feedthrough
through the board.
The power supply lines to the AD7665 should use as large a trace
as 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 supplies impedance presented to the
AD7665 and to reduce the magnitude of the supply spikes. Decoupling ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF, should be placed on all
of the power supply pins AVDD, DVDD, and OVDD 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 AD7665 can be either a separate supply
or come from the analog supply, AVDD, or from the digital interface supply, OVDD. When the system digital supply is noisy, or
fast switching digital signals are present, it is recommended, if
no separate supply is available, to connect the DVDD digital
supply to the analog supply AVDD through an RC filter as shown
in Figure 5 and to connect the system supply to the interface
digital supply OVDD and the remaining digital circuitry. When
DVDD is powered from the system supply, it is useful to insert
a bead to further reduce high frequency spikes.
The AD7665 has five different ground pins: INGND, REFGND,
AGND, DGND, and OGND. INGND is used to sense the analog
input signal. REFGND senses the reference voltage and should
be a low impedance return to the reference because it carries
pulsed currents. AGND is the ground to which most internal ADC
analog signals are referenced. This ground must be connected
with the least resistance to the analog ground plane. DGND must
be tied to the analog or digital ground plane depending on the
configuration. OGND is connected to the digital system ground.
The layout of the decoupling of the reference voltage is important.
The decoupling capacitor should be close to the ADC and
connected with short and large traces to minimize parasitic
inductances.
Evaluating the AD7665 Performance
A recommended layout for the AD7665 is outlined in the evaluation board for the AD7665. The evaluation board package includes
a fully assembled and tested evaluation board, documentation,
and software for controlling the board from a PC via the EvalControl Board.
