GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7686 is a 16-bit, charge redistribution successive approximation, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that operates from a single 5V power supply, VDD. It contains a low power, high speed, 16-bit sampling ADC with no missing codes, an internal conversion clock, and a versatile serial interface port. The part also contains a low noise, wide bandwidth, short aperture delay track-and-hold circuit. On the CNV rising edge, it samples an analog input IN+ between 0 V to REF with respect to a ground sense IN−. The reference voltage, REF, is applied externally and can be set up to the supply voltage.
Its power scales linearly with throughput.

TERMINOLOGY

Integral 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 ( ). Figure 21
Differential Nonlinearity Error (DNL)
In an ideal ADC, code transitions are 1 LSB apart. DNL is the maximum deviation from this ideal value. It is often specified in terms of resolution for which no missing codes are guaranteed.
Offset Error
The first transition should occur at a level 1/2 LSB above analog ground (38.1 µV for the 0 V to 5 V range). The offset error is the deviation of the actual transition from that point.
Gain Error
The last transition (from 111 . . . 10 to 111 . . . 11) should occur for an analog voltage 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal full scale (4.999886 V for the 0 V to 5 V range). The gain error is the deviation of the actual level of the last transition from the ideal level after the offset has been adjusted out.
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)
ENOB is a measurement of the resolution with a sine wave input. It is related to S/(N+D) by the following formula
]
DNSENOB
dB
and is expressed in bits.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first five harmonic components to the rms value of a full-scale input signal and is expressed in dB.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is 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 dB.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (S/[N+D])
S/(N+D) is 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 dB.
Aperture Delay
Aperture delay is a measure of the acquisition performance and is the time between the rising edge of the CNV input and when the input signal is held for a conversion.
Transient Response
The time required for the ADC to accurately acquire its input after a full-scale step function was applied.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7686 is a fast, low power, single-supply, precise 16-bit ADC using a successive approximation architecture.
The AD7686 is capable of converting 500,000 samples per second (500 kSPS) and powers down between conversions. When operating at 100 SPS, for example, it consumes typically 4µW, ideal for battery-powered applications.
The AD7686 provides the user with an on-chip track-and-hold and does not exhibit any pipeline delay or latency, making it ideal for multiple multiplexed channel applications.
The AD7686 is specified from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, and can be interfaced to either 5 V, 3.3 V, 2.5 V, or 1.8 V digital logic. It is housed in a 10-lead MSOP or a tiny 10-lead QFN (LFCSP) that combines space savings and allows flexible configurations.
It is pin-for-pin-compatible with the AD7685, AD7687, and AD7688.

CONVERTER OPERATION
The AD7686 is a successive approximation ADC based on a charge redistribution DAC. F shows the simplified schematic of the ADC. The capacitive DAC consists of two identical arrays of 16 binary weighted capacitors, which are connected to the two comparator inputs.
During the acquisition phase, terminals of the array tied to the comparator’s input are connected to GND 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 the IN+ and IN− inputs. When the acquisition phase is complete and the CNV input goes high, a conversion phase is initiated. 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 GND 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 GND and REF, the comparator input varies by binary weighted voltage steps (V V
/65536). The control logic toggles these switches, starting
REF
with the MSB, in order to bring the comparator back into a balanced condition. After the completion of this process, the part returns to the acquisition phase and the control logic generates the ADC output code and a BUSY signal indicator.

Analog Input
Figure 23
shows an equivalent circuit of the input structure of
the AD7686.
The two diodes, D1 and D2, 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 will cause these diodes to become forward-biased and start conducting current. However, these diodes can handle a forward-biased current of 130 mA maximum. For instance, these conditions could eventually occur when the input buffer’s (U1) supplies are different from VDD. In such a case, 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 IN+ and IN−. By using this differential input, small signals common to both inputs are rejected, as shown in Fi , which represents the typical
gure 24 CMRR over frequency. For instance, by using IN− to sense a remote signal ground, ground potential differences between the sensor and the local ADC ground are eliminated.
During the acquisition phase, the impedance of the analog input IN+ can be modeled as a parallel combination of capacitor C1 and the network formed by the series connection of R1 and C2. C1 is primarily the pin capacitance. R1 is typically 600 Ω and is a lumped component made up of some serial resistors and the on resistance of the switches. C2 is typically 30 pF and is mainly the ADC sampling capacitor. During the conversion phase, where the switches are opened, the input impedance is limited to C1. R1 and C2 make a 1-pole, low-pass filter that reduces undesirable aliasing effect and limits the noise.
When the source impedance of the driving circuit is low, the AD7686 can be driven directly. Large source impedances significantly affect the ac performance, especially total harmonic distortion (THD). The dc performances are less sensitive to the input impedance. 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

Driver Amplifier Choice

Although the AD7686 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier needs to meet the following requirements:
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 AD7686. Note that the AD7686 has a noise much lower than most of the other 16­bit ADCs and, therefore, can be driven by a noisier op amp while preserving the same or better system performance. The noise coming from the driver is filtered by the AD7686 analog input circuit 1-pole, low-pass filter made by R1 and C2 or by the external filter, if one is used. Because the typical noise of the AD7686 is 35 µV rms, the SNR degradation due to the amplifier is

Voltage Reference Input

The AD7686 voltage reference input, REF, has a dynamic input impedance and should therefore be driven by a low impedance source with efficient decoupling between the REF and GND pins as explained in the Layout section.
When REF is driven by a very low impedance source, e.g., a reference buffer using the AD8031 or the AD8605, a 10 µF (X5R, 0805 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum performance.
If an unbuffered reference voltage is used, the decoupling value depends on the reference used. For instance, a 22 µF (X5R, 1206 size) ceramic chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum performance using a low temperature drift ADR43x reference.
If desired, smaller reference decoupling capacitor values down to 2.2 µF can be used with a minimal impact on performance, especially DNL.

N
nV/√Hz.
For ac applications, the driver needs to have a THD
performance suitable to that of the AD7686. F
igure 12 gives the THD versus frequency that the driver should exceed.
For multichannel multiplexed applications, the driver
amplifier and the AD7686 analog input circuit must be able to settle for a full-scale step of the capacitor array at a 16­bit level (0.0015%). In the amplifier’s data sheet, settling at
0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. This could differ significantly from the settling time at a 16-bit level and should be verified prior to driver selection.

AD7686 Preliminary Technical Data
Power Supply
The AD7686 is specified 4.5 V to 5.5 V. It has, unlike other low voltage converters, a noise low enough to design a 16-bit resolution system with respectable performance. It uses two power supply pins: a core supply VDD and a digital input/output interface supply VIO. VIO allows direct interface with any logic between 1.8 V and VDD. To reduce the supplies needed, the VIO and VDD can be tied together. The AD7686 is independent of power supply sequencing between VIO and VDD. Additionally, it is very insensitive to power supply variations over a wide frequency range, as shown in ,
Figure 26
which represents PSRR over frequency.

Supplying the ADC from the Reference

For simplified applications, the AD7686, with its low operating current, can be supplied directly using the reference circuit, as shown in Figure 28. The reference line can be driven by either:
The system power supply directly
A reference voltage with enough current output
capability, such as the ADR43x
A reference buffer, such as the AD8031, that can also
filter the system power supply, as shown in Figure 28.
Figure 26. PSRR v s. Frequency
The AD7686 powers down automatically at the end of each conversion phase and, therefore, the power scales linearly with the sampling rate as shown in see . This makes the part
Figure 27 ideal for low sampling rate (even a few Hz) and low battery­powered applications.

DIGITAL INTERFACE
Though the AD7686 has a reduced number of pins, it offers flexibility in its serial interface modes.
CS
The AD7686, when in digital hosts, and DSPs, e.g., Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x or ADSP­219x). This interface can use either 3-wire or 4-wire. A 3-wire interface using the CNV, SCK, and SDO signals minimizes wiring connections useful, for instance, in isolated applications. A 4-wire interface using the SDI, CNV, SCK, and SDO signals allows CNV, which initiates the conversions, to be independent of the readback timing (SDI). This is useful in low jitter sampling or simultaneous sampling applications.
The AD7686, when in chain mode, provides a daisy chain feature using the SDI input for cascading multiple ADCs on a single data line similar to a shift register.
The mode in which the part operates depends on the SDI level when the CNV rising edge occurs. The SDI is high and the chain mode is selected if SDI is low. The SDI hold time is such that when SDI and CNV are connected together, the chain mode is always selected.

In either mode, the AD7686 offers the flexibility to optionally force a start bit in front of the data bits. This start bit can be used as a BUSY signal indicator to interrupt the digital host and trigger the data reading. Otherwise, without a BUSY indicator, the user must time out the maximum conversion time prior to readback.
The BUSY indicator feature is enabled as follows:

For instance, it could be useful to bring CNV low to select other SPI devices, such as analog multiplexers, but CNV must be returned high before the minimum conversion time and held high until the maximum conversion time to avoid the generation of the BUSY signal indicator. When the conversion is complete, the AD7686 enters the acquisition phase and powers down. When CNV goes low, the MSB is output onto SDO. The remaining data bits are

This mode can be used to daisy chain multiple AD7686s on a 3­wire serial interface.

onto SDO and the AD7686 enters the acquisition phase and powers down. The remaining data bits stored in the internal shift register are then clocked by subsequent SCK falling edges. For each ADC, SDI feeds the input of the internal shift register and is clocked by the SCK falling edge. Each ADC in the chain outputs its data MSB first, and 16 × N clocks are required to readback the N ADCs. The data is valid on both SCK edges. Although the rising edge can be used to capture the data, a digital host also using the SCK falling edge will allow a faster reading rate and, consequently more AD7686s in the chain, provided the digital host has an acceptable hold time. The maximum conversion rate may be reduced due to the total readback time. For instance, with a 5 ns digital host set-up time and 3 V interface, up to five AD7686s running at a conversion rate of 333 kSPS can be daisy-chained on a 3-wire port.

AD7686 Preliminary Technical Data

APPLICATION HINTS

LAYOUT
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7686 should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. The pinout of the AD7686 with all its analog signals on the left side and all its digital signals on the right side eases this task.
Avoid running digital lines under the device because these couple noise onto the die, unless a ground plane under the AD7686 is used as a shield. Fast switching signals, such as CNV or clocks, should never run near analog signal paths. Crossover of digital and analog signals should be avoided
At least one ground plane should be used. It could be common or split between the digital and analog section. In such a case, it should be joined underneath the AD7686s.
The AD7686 voltage reference input REF has a dynamic input impedance and should be decoupled with minimal parasitic inductances. That is done by placing the reference decoupling ceramic capacitor close to, and ideally right up against, the REF and GND pins and connect these pins with wide, low impedance traces.
Finally, the power supply VDD and VIO of the AD7686 should be decoupled with ceramic capacitors, typically 100 nF, placed close to the AD7686 and connected using short and large traces to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effect of glitches on the power supply lines.
An example of layout following these rules is shown in F
and .
