The SPT7734 is a 8-bit monolithic, low cost, ultralow power
analog-to-digital converter capable of minimum word rates
of 40 MSPS. The on-chip track-and-hold function assures
very good dynamic performance without the need for external components. The input drive requirements are minimized due to the SPT7734's low input capacitance of only
5 pF.
Power dissipation is extremely low at only 175 mW typical at
40 MSPS with a power supply of +5.0 V. The digital outputs

are +3 V or +5 V, and are user selectable. The SPT7734 has
incorporated proprietary circuit design and CMOS processing technologies to achieve its advanced performance. Inputs and outputs are TTL/CMOS compatible to interface with
TTL/CMOS logic systems. Output data format is straight

TYPICAL INTERFACE CIRCUIT

stated device performance. Figure 1 shows the typical interface requirements when using the SPT7734 in normal circuit
operation. The following sections provide descriptions of the
major functions and outline critical performance criteria to
consider for achieving the optimal device performance.

Logics
The high sample rate is achieved by using multiple SAR ADC
sections in parallel, each of which samples the input signal in
sequence. Each ADC uses 16 clock cycles to complete a
conversion. The clock cycles are allocated as follows:
Table II - Clock Cycles
ClockOperation
1Reference zero sampling
2Auto-zero comparison
3Auto-calibrate comparison
4Input sample
5-159-bit SAR conversion
16Data transfer
The 16 phase clock, which is derived from the input clock,
synchronizes these events. The timing signals for adjacent
ADC sections are shifted by one clock cycle so that the analog
input is sampled on every cycle of the input clock by exactly
one ADC section. After 16 clock periods, the timing cycle
repeats. The latency from analog input sample to the corresponding digital output is 12 clock cycles.

POWER SUPPLIES AND GROUNDING
Fairchild suggests that both the digital and the analog supply
voltages on the SPT7734 be derived from a single analog
supply as shown in figure 1. A separate digital supply should
be used for all interface circuitry. Fairchild suggests using
this power supply configuration to prevent a possible latchup condition on power up.
OPERATING DESCRIPTION
The general architecture for the CMOS ADC is shown in the
block diagram. The design contains 16 identical successive
approximation ADC sections, all operating in parallel, a 16phase clock generator, an 9-bit 16:1 digital output multiplexer, correction logic, and a voltage reference generator
which provides common reference levels for each ADC section.
• Since only 16 comparators are used, a huge power savings
is realized.
• The auto-zero operation is done using a closed loop
system that uses multiple samples of the comparators
response to a reference zero.
• The auto-calibrate operation, which calibrates the gain
of the MSB reference and the LSB reference, is also
done with a closed loop system. Multiple samples of the
gain error are integrated to produce a calibration voltage for
each ADC section.
• Capacitive displacement currents, which can induce sampling error, are minimized since only one comparator
samples the input during a clock cycle.
• The total input capacitance is very low since sections of the
converter which are not sampling the signal are isolated
from the input by transmission gates.
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The SPT7734 requires the use of a single external voltage
reference for driving the high side of the reference ladder. It
must be within the range of 3 V to 5 V. The lower side of the
ladder is typically tied to AGND (0.0 V), but can be run up to
2.0 V with a second reference. The analog input voltage
range will track the total voltage difference measured between the ladder sense lines, V
RHS
and V
RLS
.
Force and sense taps are provided to ensure accurate and
stable setting of the upper and lower ladder sense line
voltages across part-to-part and temperature variations. By
using the configuration shown in figure 2, offset and gain
errors of less than ±2 LSB can be obtained.
In cases where wider variations in offset and gain can be
tolerated, V

sense lines to AGND with a .01 µF capacitor (chip cap
preferred) to minimize high-frequency noise injection. If this
simplified configuration is used, the following considerations
should be taken into account:
The drive requirements for the analog inputs are very minimal
when compared to most other converters due to the SPT7734's
extremely low input capacitance of only 5 pF and very high
input resistance in excess of 50 kΩ.
The analog input should be protected through a series
resistor and diode clamping circuit as shown in figure 4.
The reference ladder circuit shown in figure 3 is a simplified
representation of the actual reference ladder with force and
sense taps shown. Due to the actual internal structure of the

CALIBRATION
The SPT7734 uses an auto calibration scheme to ensure 8-bit accuracy over time and temperature. Gain and
offset errors are continually adjusted to 8-bit accuracy during
device operation. This process is completely transparent to
the user.
Upon power-up, the SPT7734 begins its calibration algorithm. In order to achieve the calibration accuracy required,
the offset and gain adjustment step size is a fraction of a 8bit LSB. Since the calibration algorithm is an oversampling
process, a minimum of 10,000 clock cycles are required.
This results in a minimum calibration time upon power-up
of 250 µsec (for a 40 MHz clock). Once calibrated, the
SPT7734 remains calibrated over time and temperature.
Since the calibration cycles are initiated on the rising edge of
the clock, the clock must be continuously applied for the
SPT7734 to remain in calibration.
INPUT PROTECTION
All I/O pads are protected with an on-chip protection circuit
shown in figure 5. This circuit provides ESD robustness to
3.5 kV and prevents latch-up under severe discharge condi-
tions without degrading analog transition times.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The digital outputs (D0-D8) are driven by a separate supply
(OVDD) ranging from +3 V to +5 V. This feature makes it
possible to drive the SPT7734's TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs with the user's logic system supply. The format of the
output data (D0-D7) is straight binary. (See table III.) The
outputs are latched on the rising edge of CLK. These outputs
can be switched into a tri-state mode by bringing EN high.
(Ø indicates the flickering bit between logic 0 and 1).
DO NOT CONNECT PINS (DNC)
There are two pins designated as Do Not Connect (DNC).
These pins must be left floating for proper operation of the
Analog
device.
OVERRANGE OUTPUT
The OVERRANGE OUTPUT (D8) is an indication that the
analog input signal has exceeded the positive full scale input
voltage by 1 LSB. When this condition occurs, D8 will switch
to logic 1. All other data outputs (D0 to D7) will remain at
logic 1 as long as D8 remains at logic 1. This feature makes
it possible to include the SPT7734 into higher resolution
systems.
CLOCK INPUT
The SPT7734 is driven from a single-ended TTL-input clock.
Because the pipelined architecture operates on the rising edge of
the clock input, the device can operate over a wide range of input
clock duty cycles without degrading the dynamic performance.
