CS5180 is a fully calibrated high-speed ∆Σ analog-todigital converter, capable of 400 kSamples/second output word rate (OWR). The OWR scales with the master
clock. It consists of a 5th order ∆Σ modulator, decimation
filter, and serial interface. The chip can use the 2.375 V
on-chip voltage reference, or an external 2.5 V reference. The input voltage range is 1.6 × VREFIN V
differential. Multiple CS5180s can be fully synchronized
in multi-channel applications with a SYNC signal. The
part has a power-down mode to minimize power consumption at times of system inactivity. The high speed
digital I/O lines have complementary signals to help reduce radiated noise from traces on the PC board. The
CS5180 can also be operated in modulator-only mode
which provides the delta-sigma modulator bitstream as
the output.

CS5180
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CS5180 is a monolithic CMOS 16-bit A/D
converter designed to operate in a continuous mode
after being reset.
The CS5180 can operate in a modulator-only mode
in which the unfiltered bit stream from the modulator is the data output from the device.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The front page of this data sheet illustrates the
block diagram of the CS5180.
Converter Initialization: Calibration and
Synchronization
The CS5180 does not have an internal power-on reset circuit. Therefore when power is first applied to
the device the RESET
power is established and the voltage reference has
stabilized.This resets the converter’s logic to a
known state. When power is fully established the
converter will perform a self-calibration, starting
with the first MCLK rising edge after RESET
high. The converter will use 988,205 MCLK cycles
to complete the calibration and to allow the digital
filter to fully settle, after which, it will output fullysettled conversion words. The converter will then
continue to output conversion words at an output
pin should be held low until
goes
word rate equal to MCLK/64. Figure 2 illustrates
the RESET
and SYNC logic and timing for the con-
verter.
The CS5180 is designed to perform conversions
continuously with an output rate that is equivalent
to MCLK/64. The conversions are performed and
the serial port is updated independent of external
controls. The converter is designed to measure differential bipolar input signals, and unipolar signals,
with a common mode voltage of between 1.0 V and
VREF + 0.25 V. Calibration is performed when the
RESET
signal to the device is released. If RESET
is properly framed to MCLK, the converter can be
synchronized to a specific MCLK cycle at the system level.
The SYNC signal can also be used to synchronize
multiple converters in a system. When SYNC is
used, the converter does not perform calibration.
The SYNC signal is recognized on the first rising
edge of MCLK after SYNC goes high.SYNC
aligns the output conversion to occur every 64
MCLK clock cycles after the SYNC signal is recognized and the filter is settled. After the SYNC is
initiated by going high, the converter will wait
5,161 MCLK cycles for the digital filter to settle
before putting out a fully-settled conversion word.

SYNC pulse should rise on a falling edge of the
MCLK signal. This ensures that the SYNC input to
all CS5180s in the system will be recognized on the
next rising edge of MCLK. Use of the SYNC input
is not necessary to make the converter operate
properly. If it is unused it should be tied to DGND.
Conversion data is output from the SDO and SDO
pins of the device. The data is output from the SDO
pin MSB first, in two’s complement format. The
converter furnishes a serial clock SCLK and its
complement SCLK
to latch the data bits; and a data
framing signal, Frame Sync Output (FSO), which
frames the output conversion word.The SCLK
output frequency is MCLK/3.
Clock Generator
The CS5180 must be driven from a CMOS-compatible clock at its MCLK pin. The MCLK input is
powered from the VD+ supply and its signal input
should not exceed this supply.The required
MCLK is 64 × OWR (Output Word Rate).To
achieve an Output Word Rate of 400 kHz, the
MCLK frequency must be 64 × 400 kHz, or
25.6 MHz. A second clock input pin, MCLK
not actually used inside the device but allows the
user to run a fully differential clock to the converter
,is
to minimize radiated noise from the PC board layout.
The CS5180 can be operated with MCLK frequencies from 512 kHz up to 26 MHz. The output word
ratescaleswiththeMCLKratewith
OWR = MCLK/64.
Voltage Reference
The CS5180 can be configured to operate from either its internal voltage reference, or from an external voltage reference.
The on-chip voltage reference is 2.375 V and is referenced to the AGND pin. This 2.375 V reference is
output from the VREFOUT pin. It is then filtered
andreturnedtotheVREFINpin.VREFINpinis
connected to a buffer which has a gain of 1.6. This
scales the on-chip reference of 2.375 V to 3.8 V.
This value sets the peak-to-peak input voltage into
the AIN pins of the converter. Figure 3 illustrates the
CS5180 connected to use the internal voltage reference. Note that a 1.0 µF and 0.1 µF capacitor are
shown connected to the VREFCAP pin to filter out
noise. A larger capacitor can be used, but may require a longer reset period when first applying power
to the part to allow for the reference to charge up the
capacitors and stabilize before self-calibration begins.

Alternatively, the CS5180 can be configured to use
an external voltage reference. Figure 4 illustrates
the CS5180 connected to use a 2.5 V external reference. In this case, the peak-to-peak input at the
AINpinsis4V.
Analog Input
The analog signal to the converter is input into the
AIN+ and AIN- pins. The input signal is fully differential with the maximum peak-to-peak amplitude of VREFIN X 1.6 V. The signal needs to have
a common mode voltage in a range from 1 V to
VREF + 0.25 V. A resistor-capacitor filter should
be included on the AIN+ and AIN- inputs of the
converter. This should consist of a 20 Ω resistor
and a 2200 pF capacitor on each input to ground as
illustrated in the system connection diagram (Figure ).
Output Coding
Table 1 illustrates the output coding for the converter when operating with the digital filter
(MODE = 1). The converter outputs its data from
the serial port in twos complement format, MSB
first.

The chip offers an MFLAG signal to indicate when
the modulator has gone unstable. MFLAG is set
when an overrange signal forces the modulator into
an unstable condition. Under this condition, output
codes from the converter will be locked to either
plus or minus full scale as is appropriate for the
overrange condition.
Modulator-Only mode
The CS5180 can be operated in modulator-only
mode by connecting the MODE pin to a logic 0

Instability Indicator
The MFLAG signal is functional in both modes of
operation of the part and indicates when the modulator has been overdriven into an unstable condition. In the modulator only mode (MODE = 0), the
MFLAG signal will remain set for 3 MCLK cycles
when the modulator goes unstable, before being returned to the reset state. While the input condition
causing modulator instability persists, the MFLAG
signal will continually get set for 3 MCLK cycles
and then get reset.
CS5180
When the decimation filter on the part is operational (MODE = 1), the MFLAG signal is set when the
modulator goes unstable. In this mode, however,
the MFLAG signal stays set until 5,120 MCLK cycles after the input condition causing modulator instability is removed.This delay is provided to
allow the digital filter time to settle, and the part
will output fully settled conversion words after the
MFLAG signal goes low.
Digital Filter Characteristics
Figure 9 illustrates the magnitude versus frequency
plot of the converter when operating at 400 kHz
output word rate. The filter is a non-aliasing 4265
tap filter with a -3 dB corner at 0.4495 of the output
word rate and an out-of-band attenuation of at least
90 dB at frequencies above one half the output
word rate.The passband ripple is less than
±0.05 dB up to the -3 dB corner frequency.
Figure 10 illustrates the phase response of the digital filter with the converter operating at 400 kHz
output word rate. The filter characteristics change
proportional to changes in the MCLK rate.
The group delay of the digital filter is 2,370 MCLK
cycles (92.6 µs with MCLK = 25.6 MHz), and the
settling time is 4,740 MCLK cycles (185.2 µs).
Serial Interface
The CS5180 has a serial interface through which
conversion words are output in a synchronous selfclocking format. The serial port consists of the Se-

falls at the beginning of an output word. Data is
output in twos complement format, MSB first.
FSO stays low for 16 SCLK cycles. SCLK is output at a rate equal to MCLK/3.
Power Supplies / Board Layout
The CS5180 can be operated with VA+ supplies at
5 V and VD+ supplies at 5 V; or with VA+ at 5 V
and VD+ at 3 V.
Figure illustrates the system connection diagram
for the chip. For best performance, each of the
13
CS5180
supply pins should be bypassed to the nearest
ground pin on the chip.The bypass capacitors
should be located as close to the chip as possible. If
the chip is surface mounted the bypass capacitors
should be on the same side of the circuit card as the
chip.
The CS5180 is a high speed component that requires adherence to standard high-frequency printed circuit board layout techniques to maintain
optimum performance. These include the use of
ground and power planes, using low noise power
supplies in conjunction with proper supply decou-

pling, minimizing circuit trace lengths, and physical separation of digital and analog components
and circuit traces.
It is preferred that any clock oscillator circuitry be
located on a ground plane separate from the digital
plane in order to ensure that digital noise does not
induce clock jitter.

Power-down Mode
The CS5180 has a PWDN (power-down) function.
When active low, power to most of the converter’s
circuitry will be reduced. If MCLK is to be stopped
to save power, it should not be stopped until at least
ten clock cycles after PWDN is taken low. The ten
clock cycles are required to allow the part to turn
off it’s internal circuitry. If the part does not get the
full ten clock cycles, it will still go into a power
down state, but the power dissipation could be
more than is listed in the specifications for the full
power down condition. When PWDN

FSO — Frame Sync Output

RESET — Reset and Calibration
PWDN
—SerialDataOut
Serial Data Output. Output pin for 16-bit serial data word. The SDO output is the complement
of SDO and helps to reduce radiated noise if the two lines are run adjacent on the PC board
layout. Output data is output in twos complement format MSB first.
The Frame Sync Output indicates the beginning of an output word from the SDO pin by falling
to a logic low state. FSO remains low until all 16 bits are clocked out.
When the RESET pin is pulled to a logic low the converter will perform a reset of its digital
logic. When the level on this pin is brought back to a logic high the chip starts normal
operation, following a two clock cycle delay period. When MODE = 1 the chip goes through
an internal gain and offset calibration routine following this reset sequence.
— Power Down Mode
A logic 0 on PWDN pin will put the device into a power-down mode.
17
MODE — Modulator Mode
MODE is held at a logic high for normal operation. In normal operation the device utilizes the
digital decimation filter and calibration circuitry. MODE = 0 puts the part in modulator-only
mode whereby most of the digital circuitry is powered-down and the modulator bit-stream is
output from the SDO and SDO pins.
SYNC — Synchronization of Filter
The SYNC input can be used to restart the digital filter of the converter at the beginning of its
convolution cycle. The SYNC input is used to synchronize the filters of multiple converters in
a system. When the SYNC pin goes high, the filter will be initialized and will begin its
convolution cycle on the next rising edge of MCLK. If not used, tie sync to DGND.
MFLAG — Invalid Conversion Flag
MFLAG goes high if the modulator portion of the converter goes unstable. If MFLAG is high,
the output data from the converter may be invalid.

PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
Differential Non-Linearity Error - DNL
The deviation of a code’s width from ideal. Units in LSBs.
Integral Non-Linearity Error - INL
The deviation of a code from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the transfer
function after zero- and full-scale errors have been accounted for. "Zero-scale" is a point 1/2
LSB below the first code transition and "full-scale" is a point 1/2 LSB beyond the code
transition to all ones. The deviation is measured from the middle of each particular code. Units
in LSB’s.
Full-Scale Error - FSEP
The deviation of the last code transition from the ideal (VREF-3/2 LSB’s). Units in LSB’s.
Offset Error - VOS
The deviation of the mid-scale transition from the ideal (1/2 LSB below 0 Volts).Units in
LSB’s.
CS5180
Spurious-Free-Dynamic-Range - SFDR
The ratio of the rms value of the full-scale signal, to the rms value of the next largest spectral
component (excepting dc). This component is often an aliased harmonic when the signal
frequency is a significant proportion of the sampling rate. Units in dBc (decibels relative to the
carrier).
Total Harmonic Distortion - THD
The ratio of the rms sum of the significant harmonics (2nd through 7th), to the rms value of the
full-scale signal. Units in decibels.
Dynamic Range - DR
The ratio of the rms value of the inferred full-scale signal, to the rms sum of the broadband
noise signals below the Nyquist rate (excepting dc and distortion terms).Expressed in
decibels. Dynamic Range is tested with a 22 kHz input signal 60 dB below full scale. 60 dB
is then added to the resulting number to refer the noise level to the full-scale signal.This
technique ensures that the distortion components are below the noise level and do not affect the
measurement.
Signal-to-Noise-and-Distortion (s/[n+d]) - SINAD
The ratio of the rms value of the full-scale signal, to the rms sum of all other spectral
components below the Nyquist rate (excepting dc), including distortion components. Expressed
in decibels.
Group Delay
The time delay through the digital filter section of the part. Units in seconds.
19
Resolution - N
The number of different output codes possible. Expressed as N, where 2
available output codes.
Noise -
A measure of the variability of the converter’s output when a fixed DC input (usually ground)
is applied to the input and a large number of samples are taken. RMS noise is determined
statistically as the Standard Deviation of the Probability Density Function derived from the
histogram of the ADC with the differential inputs shorted together and tied to an appropriate
common mode voltage.
Common Mode Rejection Ratio - CMRR
A measure of the device’s ability to cancel out the effect of a common voltage applied to both
of its differential inputs. CMRR is specified as the ratio of the differential signal gain to the
gain for the common-mode signal. Units in dB.
Offset Drift -
Changes in the offset error of the part after self calibration due to changes in ambient
temperature. Specified in microvolts per degree C, relative to the input signal.
CS5180
N
is the number of
Full Scale Drift -
Changes in the full scale error of the part after self calibration due to changes in ambient
temperature. Specified in parts-per-million (PPM) of the full scale range per degree C.

APPENDIX A: CIRCUIT APPLICATIONS
Several amplifier circuits have been tested with the
CS5180. Performance at higher frequencies is generally limited by the operational amplifiers used to
drive the A/D converter.

Figure 12 illustrates a single operational amplifier
circuit which can accept a single-ended ground-referenced signal and condition it for the input of the
CS5180. The amplifier is AC-coupled to the signal
source. In this circuit the AIN- input to the CS5180
is held at a constant DC value and the AIN+ input
is driven (it is actually overdriven to achieve high
dynamic range, but this sacrifices performance
with regard to distortion). The common mode voltage for the CS5180 input should be designed to
stay between 1 V and VREF + 0.25 V when driven
at its AIN+ and AIN- inputs. In Figure 12 the dc
voltage at the AIN- input is set so that when driven
with a 4 V
signal on the AIN+ pin, the common
pp
mode voltage remains within the proper range.
Figures 13 and 14 illustrate the performance of the
amplifier of Figure 12 operating with a 4 V
into the AIN+ input; and with 2 V
input into the

the single amplifier circuit of Figure 12 because the
inputs to the CS5180 are driven differentially. The
400 and 100 Ω output divider scales down the input
from the amplifier. The scaling should be optimized for the application. Figure 16 illustrates the
performance of the converter when using this amplifier circuit.
The amplifier of Figure 17 uses three amplifiers
and can accept a ground referenced signal or a fully
differential signal. Figure 18 illustrates its performance when driven with 57.6 kHz signal.
Figure 19 illustrates a four amplifier circuit which
gives the best performance by keeping everything
balanced. Performance is generally limited by the
amplifiers. Again, the output resistors are used to
scale down the input signal. Figures 20 and 21 il-
