GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7871 and AD7872 are fast, complete, 14-bit analog-todigital converters. They consist of a track/hold amplifier,
successive-approximation ADC, 3 V buried Zener reference and
versatile interface logic. The ADC features a self-contained, laser
trimmed internal clock, so no external clock timing components
are required. The on-chip clock may be overridden to synchronize
ADC operation to the digital system for minimum noise.
The AD7871 offers a choice of three data output formats: a single, parallel, 14-bit word; two 8-bit bytes or a 14-bit serial data
stream. The AD7872 is a serial output device only. The two
parts are capable of interfacing to all modern microprocessors
and digital signal processors.
The AD7871 and AD7872 operate from ± 5 V power supplies,
accept bipolar input signals of ± 3 V and can convert full power
signals up to 41.5 kHz.
In addition to the traditional dc accuracy specifications, the
AD7871 and AD7872 are also fully specified for dynamic performance parameters including distortion and signal-to-noise ratio.
Both devices are fabricated in Analog Devices’ LC
technology process. The AD7871 is available in 28-pin plastic DIP
and PLCC packages. The AD7872 is available in a 16-pin plastic
DIP, hermetic DIP and 16-lead SOIC packages.

1
Timing Specifications in bold print are 100% production tested. All other times are sample tested at +25°C to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with
tr = tf = 5 ns (10% to 90% of 5 V) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.
2
Serial timing is measured with a 4.7 kΩ pull-up resistor on SDATA and SSTRB and a 2 kΩ pull-up resistor on SCLK. The capacitance on all three outputs is 35 pF.
3
t6 and t17 are measured with the load circuits of Figure 1 and defined as the time required for an output to cross 0.8 V or 2.4 V.
4
t7 is derived from the measured time taken by the data outputs to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit of Figure 2. 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
time of the part and is independent of bus loading.
5
SCLK mark/space ratio (measured from a voltage level of 1.6 V) is 40/60 to 60/40.
6
SDATA will drive higher capacitive loads, but this will add to t12 since it increases the external RC time constant (4.7 k Ω//CL) and hence the time to reach 2.4 V.

AD7871/AD7872
CONVERTER DETAILS
The AD7871/AD7872 is a complete 14-bit A/D converter, requiring no external components apart from power supply
decoupling capacitors. It is comprised of a 14-bit successive approximation ADC based on a fast settling voltage-output DAC,
a high speed comparator and CMOS SAR, a track/hold amplifier, a 3 V buried Zener reference, a clock oscillator and control
logic.
INTERNAL REFERENCE
The AD7871/AD7872 has an on-chip temperature compensated
buried Zener reference that is factory trimmed to 3 V ± 10 mV.
Internally it provides both the DAC reference and the dc bias
required for bipolar operation. Reference noise is minimized by
connecting a capacitor between C
and AGND. For specified
REF
operation this capacitor should be 10 nF. The reference output
is available (REF OUT) and capable of providing up to 500 µA to
an external load.
The maximum recommended capacitance on REF OUT for
normal operation is 50 pF. If the reference is required for use
external to the AD7871/AD7872, it should be decoupled with a
200 Ω resistor in series with a parallel combination of a 10 µF
tantalum capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. These
decoupling components are required to remove voltage spikes
caused by the AD7871/AD7872’s internal operation.
The operation of the track/hold amplifier is essentially transparent to the user. The track/hold amplifier goes from its tracking
mode to its hold mode at the start of conversion. If the
CONVST input is used to start conversion, then the track to
hold transition occurs on the rising edge of
CONVST. If CS on
the AD7871 starts conversion, this transition occurs on the falling edge of
ANALOG INPUT
CS.
Figure 4 shows the AD7871/AD7872 analog input. The analog
input range is ±3 V into an input resistance of typically 15 kΩ.
The designed code transitions occur midway between successive
integer LSB values (i.e., 1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSBs, 5/2 LSBs . . . FS
–3/2 LSBs). The output code is twos-complement binary with
1 LSB = FS/16384 = 6 V/16384 = 366 µV. The ideal input/out-
put transfer function is shown in Figure 5.
Figure 3. Reference Circuit
TRACK-AND-HOLD AMPLIFIER
The track-and-hold amplifier on the analog input of the
AD7871/AD7872 allows the ADC to accurately convert an input sine wave of 6 V peak-peak amplitude to 14-bit accuracy.
The input bandwidth of the track/hold amplifier is much greater
than the Nyquist rate of the ADC even when the ADC is operated at its maximum throughput rate. The 0.1 dB cutoff frequency occurs typically at 500 kHz. The track/hold amplifier
acquires an input signal to 14-bit accuracy in less than 2 µs. The
overall throughput rate is determined by the conversion time
plus the track/hold amplifier acquisition time. For a 2 MHz
input clock the throughput time is 12 µs maximum.

Figure 5. Bipolar Input/Output Transfer Function
BIPOLAR OFFSET AND FULL-SCALE ADJUSTMENT
When the AD7871/AD7872’s offset and full-scale errors need to
be adjusted, offset error must be adjusted first. This is achieved
by trimming the offset of the op amp driving the analog input of
the AD7871/AD7872 while the input voltage is 1/2 LSB below
AGND. The trim procedure is as follows: apply a voltage of
–0.183 mV (–1/2 LSB) at V
in Figure 6 and adjust the op amp

offset voltage until the ADC output code flickers between 11

Figure 6. Bipolar Adjust Circuit
–6–
REV. D
Page 7
AD7871/AD7872
Gain error can be adjusted at either the first code transition
(ADC negative full scale) or the last code transition (ADC positive full scale). The trim procedures for both cases are as follows
(see Figure 6).
Positive Full-Scale Adjust
Apply a voltage of 2.9995 V (FS/2 –3/2 LSBs) at V1 and adjust
R2 until the ADC output code flickers between 01 1111 1111
1110 and 01 1111 1111 1111.
Negative Full-Scale Adjust
Apply a voltage of –2.9998 V (–FS/2 + 1/2 LSB) at V1 and adjust R2 until the ADC output code flickers between 10 0000
0000 0000 and 10 0000 0000 0001.
UNIPOLAR OPERATION
A typical unipolar circuit is shown in Figure 7. The AD7871/
AD7872 REF OUT is used to offset the analog input by 3 V.
The analog input range is determined by the ratio of R3 to R4.
The minimum range with which the circuit will work is 0 to
+3 V. The resistor values are given in Figure 7 for input ranges
of 0 to +5 V and 0 to +10 V. R5 and R6 are included for offset
and full scale adjust only and should be omitted if adjustment is
not required.
UNIPOLAR OFFSET AND FULL-SCALE ADJUSTMENT
When absolute accuracy is required, offset and full-scale error
can be adjusted to zero. Offset must be adjusted before fullscale. This is achieved by applying an input voltage of 1/2 LSB
to V
and adjust R6 until the ADC output code flickers between
1
10 0000 0000 0000 and 10 0000 0000 0001. For full-scale
adjustment apply an input voltage of (FS –3/2 LSBs) to V
and
1
adjust R5 until the output code flickers between 01 1111 1111
1110 and 01 1111 1111 1111.
TIMING AND CONTROL
The conversion time for both external and internal clocks can
vary from 19 to 20 rising clock edges depending on the conversion start to ADC clock synchronization. If a conversion is initiated within 30 ns prior to a rising edge of the ADC clock, the
conversion time will consist of 20 rising clock edges.
There are two basic operating modes for the AD7871. In the
first mode (Mode 1) the
CONVST line is used to start conversion and drive the track/hold into its hold mode. At the end of
conversion, the track/hold returns to its tracking mode. It is
principally intended for digital signal processing and other
applications where precise sampling in time is required. In these
applications, it is important that the signal sampling occurs at
exactly equal intervals to minimize errors due to sampling uncertainty or jitter. For these cases, the
CONVST line is driven
by a timer or some precise clock source.
The second mode is achieved by hard-wiring the
CONVST line
low. This mode (Mode 2) is intended for use in systems where
the microprocessor has total control of the ADC, both initiating
the conversion and reading the data.
CS and RD start conversion, and the microprocessor will normally be driven into a
WAIT state for the duration of conversion by
BUSY/INT.
The AD7872 has one operating mode only. This is Mode 1, described above, which uses
CONVST to start conversion.
Figure 7. Unipolar Circuit
The ideal input/output transfer function is shown in Figure 8.
The output can be converted to straight binary by inverting the
MSB.
Figure 8. Unipolar Transfer Function
DATA OUTPUT FORMATS
The AD7871 offers a choice of three data output formats, one
serial and two parallel. The parallel data formats include a single
14-bit parallel word for 16-bit data buses and a two-byte format
for 8-bit data buses. The data format is controlled by the
14/
8/CLK input. A logic high on this pin selects the 14-bit parallel output format only. A logic low or –5 V applied to this pin
allows the user access to either serial or byte formatted data.
Three of the pins previously assigned to the four MSBs in parallel form are now used for serial communications while the
fourth pin becomes a control input for the byte-formatted data.
The three possible data output formats can be selected in either
of the modes of operation.
The AD7872 is a serial output device only. The serial data format is exactly the same as the AD7871.
Parallel Output Format
The two parallel formats available on the AD7871 are a 14-bit
wide data word and a 2-byte data word. In the first, all 14 bits
of data are available at the same time on DB13 (MSB) through
DB0 (LSB). In the second, two reads are required to access the
data. When this data format is selected, the DB13/HBEN pin
assumes the HBEN function. HBEN selects which byte of data
is to be read from the AD7871. When HBEN is low, the lower
eight bits of data are placed on the data bus during a read operation; with HBEN high, the upper six bits of the 14-bit word are

placed on the data bus. These six bits are right justified and
thereby occupy the lower six bits of the byte while the upper two
bits are zeros.
Serial Output Format
Serial data is available on the AD7871 when the 14/8/CLK
input is at 0 V or –5 V and in this case the DB12/
DB11/SCLK and DB10/SDATA pins assume their serial functions. The AD7872 is a serial output device only. The serial
function on both devices is identical. Serial data is available during conversion with a word length of 16 bits; two leading zeros,
followed by the 14-bit conversion result starting with the MSB.
The data is synchronized to the serial clock output (SCLK) and
is framed by the serial strobe (
low to high transition of the serial clock and is valid on the falling edge of this clock while the
goes low at the start of conversion and the first serial data bit
(which is the first leading zero) is valid on the first falling edge
of SCLK. All the serial lines are open-drain outputs and require
external pull-up resistors.
The serial clock out is derived from the ADC master clock
source which may be internal or external. Normally, SCLK is
required during the serial transmission only. In these cases it
can be shut down (i.e., placed into three-state) at the end of
conversion to allow multiple ADCs to share a common serial
bus. However, some serial systems (e.g., TMS32020) require a
serial clock that runs continuously. Both options are available
on the AD7871 and AD7872. With the 14/
AD7871 at –5 V, the serial clock (SCLK) runs continuously;
when 14/
of transmission. The CONTROL pin on the AD7872 performs
the same function. When this is at 0 V, SCLK is noncontinuous
and when it is at –5 V, SCLK is continuous.
The SCLK, SDATA and

asynchronous to the microprocessor, to ensure that a parallel or
byte data read is not attempted during a conversion. Trying to

in progress. Avoid pulsing the

high byte of data depending on the status of HBEN (Figure 10
shows low byte for example only). The diagram shows both the
SCLK output going into three-state at the end of transmission
and a continuously running clock (dashed line).
MODE 2 INTERFACE
The second interface mode is achieved by hard-wiring CONVST
low and conversion is initiated by taking
low. The track/hold amplifier goes into the hold mode on the
falling edge of
BUSY function. BUSY goes low at the start of conversion, stays
low during the conversion and returns high when the conversion
is complete. It is normally used in parallel interfaces to drive the
microprocessor into a WAIT state for the duration of conversion.
Figure 11 shows the Mode 2 timing diagram for the 14-bit parallel data output format (14/
behaves like slow memory. The major advantage of this interface
is that it allows the microprocessor to start conversion, WAIT
and then read data with a single READ instruction. The user
does not have to worry about servicing interrupts or ensuring
that software delays are long enough to avoid the reading during
conversion.
The Mode 2 timing diagram for byte and serial data is shown in
Figure 12. For 2-byte data read, the lower byte (DB0–DB7) has
to be accessed first since HBEN must be low to start con-version. The ADC behaves like slow memory for this first read, but
the second read to access the upper byte of data is a normal read.

and Mode 2. Once again, the timing diagram of Figure 12 shows

AD7871/AD7872
DYNAMIC SPECIFICATIONS
The AD7871/AD7872 is specified and tested for dynamic performance specifications as well as traditional dc specifications
such as Integral and Differential Nonlinearity. These ac specifications are required for signal processing applications such as
Speech Recognition, Spectrum Analysis and High Speed
Modems. These applications require information on the effects
on the spectral content of the input signal. Hence, the parameters for which the AD7871/AD7872 is specified include SNR,
Harmonic Distortion, Intermodulation Distortion and Peak
Harmonics. These terms are discussed in more detail in the following sections.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the measured signal-to-noise ratio at the output of the
ADC. The signal is the rms magnitude of the fundamental.
Noise is the rms sum of all the nonfundamental signals up to
half the sampling frequency (fs/2) excluding dc. SNR is dependent upon the number of quantization levels used in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization
noise. The theoretical signal to noise ratio for a sine wave input
is given by:
SNR(dB) = (6.02N + 1.76)(1)
where N is the number of bits in the ADC. Thus for an ideal
14-bit converter, SNR = 86 dB.
The output spectrum from the ADC is evaluated by applying a
sine wave signal of very low distortion to the V
input, which is
IN
sampled at an 83 kHz sampling rate. A Fast Fourier Transform
(FFT) plot is generated from which the SNR data can be obtained. Figure 13 shows a typical 2048 point FFT plot of the
AD7871/AD7872, with an input signal of 10 kHz and a sampling frequency of 83 kHz. The SNR obtained from this graph
is
80 dB. It should be noted that the harmonics are included when
calculating the SNR.
Effective Number of Bits
The formula given in Equation 1 relates the SNR to the number
of bits. Rewriting the formula, as in Equation 2, it is possible to
get a measure of performance expressed in effective number of
bits (N).
SNR–1.76
N =
6.02
(2)
The effective number of bits for a device can be calculated directly from its measured SNR. Figure 14 shows a typical plot of
effective number of bits versus frequency for the AD7871/
AD7872 with a sampling frequency of 60 kHz.
Figure 14. Effective Number of Bits vs. Frequency
Harmonic Distortion
Harmonic Distortion is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to
the fundamental. For the AD7871/AD7872, Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD) is defined as

sixth harmonic. The THD is also derived from the FFT plot of
the ADC output spectrum. Figure 15 shows how the THD varies with input frequency.

Figure 15. Total Harmonic Distortion vs. Frequency
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).

AD7871/AD7872
Using the CCIF standard where two input frequencies near the
top end of the input bandwidth are used, 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. In this case, the
input consists of two, equal amplitude, low distortion sine waves.

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 will be
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for
parts where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, peak
will be a noise peak.
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACE
The AD7871 and AD7872 have a wide variety of interfacing options. The AD7871 offers two operating modes and three
data-output formats, while the AD7872 is a dedicated serial
output device. The fast data access times on the parallel modes
of the AD7871 allow interfacing to the very fast DSPs. The serial mode on both the AD7871 and AD7872 is compatible with
the serial port structures on all the popular DSPs.
Parallel Read Interfacing
Figures 17 and 18 show interfaces to the ADSP-2100 and the
TMS32020/C25 DSP processors. The AD7871 is operating in
Mode 1, parallel read for both interfaces. An external timer controls conversion start asynchronously to the microprocessor. At
the end of each conversion the ADC
BUSY/INT interrupts the

the microprocessor rather than an external timer. One option is

the end of conversion as described earlier. Note, a read operation must not be attempted during conversion.

Serial Interfacing
Both the AD7871 and the AD7872 have an identical serial interface. The diagrams that follow show the AD7872 interfaces
only, but the AD7871 could just as easily be used in these circuits. Figures 19, 20 and 21 show the AD7872 connected to
three popular DSPs. In all three interfaces,
start conversion since this does not activate the parallel bus.
Thus, the microprocessor can continue to use its parallel bus regardless of the state of the AD7872. The interfaces show a timer
driving the
decoded address if required.
AD7872–DSP56000 Serial Interface
Figure 19 shows a serial interface between the AD7872 and the
DSP56000. The interface arrangement is two-wire with the
AD7872 configured for noncontinuous clock operation CONTROL = 0 V). The DSP56000 is configured for Normal Mode
Asynchronous Operation with Gated Clock. It is set up for a
16-bit word with SCK as an input and the FSL control bit set to
a 0. In this configuration, the DSP56000 assumes valid data on
the first falling edge of SCK. Since the AD7872 provides valid
data on this first edge, there is no need for a strobe or framing
pulse for the data. SCLK and SDATA are three-stated when the
AD7872 is not performing a conversion. During conversion,
data is valid on the SDATA output of the AD7872 and is
clocked into the Receive Data Shift Register of the DSP56000.
When this register has received 16 bits of data, it generates an
internal interrupt on the DSP56000 to read the data from the
register.

AD7872–ADSP-2101/ADSP-2102 Serial Interface
Figure 21 shows a serial interface between the AD7872 and the
ADSP-2101/ADSP-2102 DSP Microcomputer. The AD7872 is
configured for continuous clock operation. Data is clocked into
the serial port register of the microcomputer during conversion.
As with the previous interfaces, when a 16-bit data word is received by the ADSP-2101/ADSP-2102 an internal microprocessor interrupt is generated and the data is read from the serial
port register.
Figure 19. AD7872 to DSP56000 Interface
The DSP56000 and AD7872 can also be configured for continuous clock operation. In this case a strobe pulse is required
by the DSP56000 to indicate when data is valid. The
output of the AD7872 is inverted and applied to the SC1 input
of the DSP56000 to provide this strobe pulse. All other conditions and connections are the same as for the gated clock
operation.
AD7872–TMS32020/C25 Serial Interface
Figure 20 shows a serial interface between the AD7872 and the
TMS32020/C25. The AD7872 is configured for continuous
clock operation. Note, the ADC will not interface correctly to
the TMS32020/C25 if it is configured for a noncontinuous
clock. Data is clocked into the Data Receive Register (DRR) of
the TMS32020/C25 during conversion. As with the previous interfaces, when a 16-bit word is received by the DSP it generates
an internal interrupt to read the data from the DRR.

APPLICATION HINTS
Good printed circuit board (PCB) layout is as important as the
circuit design itself in achieving high speed A/D performance.
The AD7871/AD7872 is required to make bit decisions on an
LSB size of 366 µV. Thus, the designer has to be conscious of
noise both in the ADC itself and in the preceding analog circuitry. Switching mode power supplies are not recommended as
the switching spikes will feed through to the comparator causing
noisy code transitions. Other causes of concern are ground loops
and digital feedthrough from microprocessors. These are factors
that influence any ADC; a proper PCB layout that minimizes
these effects is essential for best performance.

LAYOUT HINTS
Ensure that the layout for the printed circuit board has the digital and analog signal lines separated as much as possible. Take
care not to run a digital track alongside an analog signal track.
Guard (screen) the analog input with AGND.
Establish a single point analog ground (star ground) separate
from the logic system ground at the AD7871/AD7872 AGND
pin or as close as possible to the AD7871/AD7872. Connect all
other grounds and the AD7871/AD7872 DGND to this single
analog ground point. Do not connect any other digital grounds
to this analog ground point.
Low impedance analog and digital power supply common returns are essential to low noise operation of the ADC, so make
the foil width for these tracks as wide as possible. The use of
ground planes minimizes impedance paths and also guards the
analog circuitry from digital noise. The circuit layout of Figures
26 and 27 have both analog and digital ground planes that are
kept separated and joined together only at the AD7871/AD7872
AGND pin.
NOISE
Keep the input signal leads to VIN and signal return leads from
AGND as short as possible to minimize input noise coupling. In
applications where this is not possible, use a shielded cable between the source and the ADC. Reduce the ground circuit impedance as much as possible since any potential difference in
grounds between the signal source and the ADC appears as an
error voltage in series with the input signal.
terrupts labelled EIRQ0 to EIRQ3. The AD7871
output connects to EIRQ0. There is a single wait state generator
connected to EDMACK to allow the AD7871 to interface to the
faster versions of the ADSP-2100.
SKT4 is a 26-way (2-row) IDC connector. This contains the
same signal contacts as SKT6 except for EDMACK, which is
connected to SKT6 only. It also contains decoded R/
STRB inputs necessary for TMS32020 interfacing.
SKT5 is a 5-way D-type connector meant for serial interfacing
only. An inverted DB11/SCLK output is also provided on this
connector for systems that accept data on a rising clock edge.
SKT1, SKT2 and SKT3 are three BNC connectors providing
connections for the analog input, the

DATA ACQUISITION BOARD
Figure 24 shows the AD7871/AD7872 in a data acquisition circuit. The corresponding printed circuit board (PCB) layout has
three interface ports: one serial and two parallel. Note that the
AD7871/AD7872 serial lines are buffered by a 74HC244. This
allows long lines with large capacitive loads to be driven. One of
the parallel ports is directly compatible with the ADSP-2100
evaluation board expansion connector.
The only additional component required for a full data acquisition system is an anti-aliasing filter. There is a component grid
provided near the analog input on the PCB, which may be used
for such a filter or any other input conditioning circuitry. To facilitate this option, there is a shorting plug (labelled LK1 on the
PCB) on the analog input track. If this shorting plug is used, the
analog input connects to the buffer amplifier driving the AD7871/
AD7872; if this shorting plug is omitted, a wire link can be used to
connect the analog input to the PCB component grid.
INTERFACE CONNECTIONS
There are two parallel connectors labeled SKT4 and SKT6,
and one serial connector labeled SKT5. A shorting plug option
(LK3 in Figure 24) configures the ADC for the appropriate
interface.
SKT6 is a 96-contact (3-row) Eurocard connector that is directly
compatible with the ADSP-2100 Evaluation Board Prototype
Expansion Connector. The expansion connector on the
ADSP-2100 has eight decoded chip enable outputs labeled
ECE1 to ECE8. ECE6 is used to drive the AD7871
on the board. To avoid selecting the onboard RAM sockets at
the same time, LK6 on the ADSP-2100 board must be removed.
In addition, the ADSP-2100 expansion connector has four in-
CS input

POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
The PCB requires two analog power supplies and one 5 V logic
supply. The analog supplies are labelled V+ and V–, and the
range for both supplies is 12 V to 15 V. Connection to the 5 V
digital supply is made through any of the connectors SKT4 to
SKT6. The ±5 V supply required by the AD7871 and AD7872
is generated from voltage regulators on the V+ and V– power
supplies input (IC6 and IC7 in Figure 24).
SHORTING PLUG OPTIONS
There are seven shorting plug options which must be set before
using the board. These are outlined below:
LK1 Connects the analog input to a buffer amplifier. The
analog input may also be connected to a component
grid for signal conditioning.
LK2 Selects either the AD7871/AD7872 internal clock or
an external clock source.
LK3 Configures the AD7871 14/
