DESCRIPTION

The Microchip Tech nology Inc. MCP3 202 is a succ es­sive approximation 12-bit Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Con-
CH0 CH1
verter with on-board sample and hold circuitry. The MCP3202 is programmable to provide a single pseudo-differential input pair or dual single-ended inputs. Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) is specified at ±1 LSB, and Integral Nonlinearity (INL) is offered in ±1 LSB (MCP3202-B) and ±2 LSB (MCP3202-C) ver­sions. Communication with the device is done using a simple serial interface compatible with the SPI protocol. The device is capable of conversion rates of up to 100ksps at 5V and 50ksps at 2.7V. The MCP3202 device operates over a broad voltage range (2.7V -
5.5V). Low current design permits operation with typi-
cal standby and active currents of only 500nA and 375µA, respectively. The MCP3202 is offered in 8-pin PDIP, TSSOP and 150mil SOIC packages.

These channels can prog r am me d to b e us ed as tw o indepe n­dent channels in single ended-mode or as a single pseudo-differentia l inpu t where on e chan nel is IN+ an d one channe l is IN- . Se e S ectio n 5.0 for infor m atio n on programming the channel configuration.
3.2 CS/SHDN(Chip Select/Shutdown)
The CS/SHDN pin is used to initiate communication with the device when pulled low and will end a conver­sion and put the device in low power standby when pulled high. The CS
/SHDN pin must be pulled high
between conversions.
3.3 CLK (Serial Clock)
The SPI clock pin is used to initiate a conversion and to clock out each bit of the conversion as it takes place. See Section 6.2 for constraints on clock speed.
3.4 DIN (Serial Data Input)
The SPI port serial data input pin is used to clock in input channel configuration data.
3.5 DOUT (Serial Data output)
The SPI serial data output pin is used to shift out the results of the A/D conversion. Data will always change on the falling edge of each clock as the conversion takes place.
4.0 DEVICE OPERATION
The MCP3202 A/D Converter employs a conventional SAR architecture. With this architecture, a sample is acquired on an internal sample/hold capacitor for
1.5 clock cycles starting on the second rising edge of the serial clock after the start bit has been received. Following this sample time, the input switch of the con­verter opens and the device uses the collected charge on the internal sample and hold capacitor to produce a serial 12-bit digital output code. Conversion rates of 100ksps are possible on the MCP3202. See Section 6.2 for information on minimum clock rates. Communication with the device is done using a 3-wire SPI-compatible interface.
4.1 Analog Inputs
The MCP3202 device offers the choice of using the ana­log input channels configured as two single-ended inputs or a single pseudo-differential input. Configura­tion is done as part of the serial command before each conversion begins. When used in the ps uedo- diff eren­tial mode, CH0 and CH1 are programmed as the IN+ and IN- inputs as part of the command string transmit­ted to the device. The IN+ input can range from IN- to
(V

REF
from the V
+ IN-). The IN- input is limited to ±100mV
REF
rail. The IN- input can be used to cancel
SS
small signal common-mode noise which is present on both the IN+ and IN- inputs.
For the A/D Con verter to meet spe cification, the charge holding capacitor (C
) must be given enough time
SAMPLE
to acquire a 12-bit accurate voltage level during the
1.5 clock cycle sampling period. The analog input model is shown in Figure 4-1.
In this diagram, it is shown that the source impedance

(R
S
ance, directly affecting the time that is required to charge the capacitor, C
. Consequently, larger
SAMPLE
source impedances increase the offset, gain, and inte­gral linearity errors of the conversion.
Ideally, the impedance of the signal source should be near zero. This is achievable with an operational ampli­fier such as the MCP601 which has a closed loop out­put impedance of tens of ohms. The adverse affects of higher source impedances are shown in Figure 4-2.
When operating in the pseudo-differential mode, if the voltage level of IN+ is equal to or less than IN-, the resultant code wi ll be 000h. If t he voltag e at IN+ is e qual to or greater than {[V
+ (IN-)] - 1 LSB}, then the out-
REF
put code will be FFFh . If the v olta ge level at IN- is more than 1 LSB below VSS, then the voltage level at the IN+ input will have to go below V code. Conv ersely, if IN- is more than 1 LSB ab ov e V

5.0 SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
5.1 Overview
Communication with the MCP3202 is done using a standard SPI-compatible serial interface. Initiating communication with the device is done by bringing the
line low. See Figure 5-1. If the device was powered
CS up with the CS low to initiate communicatio n. The first cl ock received with CS low and DIN high will constitute a start bit. The SGL/DIFF and are used to select the input channel configuration. The SGL/DIFF is used to select single ended or psuedo-differential mode. The ODD/SIGN which chann el is used in single ended mode, an d is used to determine polarity in pseudo-differential mode. Following the ODD/SIGN ted to and is used to enable the LSB first format for the device. If the MSBF bit is low, then the data will come from the device in MSB first format and any further clocks with CS zeros. If the MSBF bit is high , then the de vice will outp ut the conver ted word LSB first transmitted in the MSB first format. See Figure 5-2. Table 5-1 shows the configuration bits for the MCP3202. The device will begin to sample the analog input on the second rising edge of the clock, after the start bit has been rec eived. The sample pe riod w i ll end on the falling edge of the third clock following the start bit.
On the falling edge of the clock for the MSBF bit, the device will output a low null bit. The next sequential 12 clocks will output the result of the conversion with

6.0 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
6.1 Using the MCP3202 with Microcontroller (MCU) SPI Ports
With most microcontroller SPI ports, it is required to send groups of eight bits. It is also required that the microcontroller SPI port be configured to clock out data on the falling edge of cloc k and latch data in on the rising edge. Depending on how communication routines are used, it is very possible that the number of clocks required for communication will not be a multiple of eight. Therefore, it may be necessary for the MCU to send more clocks than are actually required. This is usually
done by sending ‘leading zeros’ before the start bit, which are ignored by the device. As an example, Figure 6-1 and Figure 6-2 show how the MCP3202 can be interfaced to a MCU with a hardware SPI port. Figure 6-1 depicts the operation sho wn in SPI Mode 0,0,

which requires that the SCLK from the MCU idles in the ‘low’ state, while Figure 6-2 shows the similar case of SPI Mode 1,1 where the clock idles in the ‘high’ state .
As shown in Figure 6-1, the first byte transmitted to the A/D Converter contains seven leading zeros before the start bit. Arranging the leading zeros this way produces the output 12 bits to fall in positions easily manipulate d by the MCU. The MSB is clocked out of the A/D Con­verter on the falling edge of clock number 12. After the second eight clocks have been sent to the device, the MCU receive buffer will contain three unknown bits (the output is at high i mpedance unt il the null bit is clocked out), the null bit and t he highest order four bits of the conversion. After the third byte has been sent to the device, the receive register will contain the lowest order eight bits of the conversion results. Easier manipulation of the converted data can be obtained by using this method.

MCP3202
6.2 Maintaining Minimum Clock Speed
When the MCP3202 initiates the sample period, charge is stored on the sample capacitor. When the sample period is complete, the device converts one bit for each clock that is received. It is impor tant for the user to note that a slow clock rate will allow charge to bleed off the sample cap while the conversion is taking place. At 85°C (worst case condition), the part will
maintain proper charge on the sample capacitor for at least 1.2ms after the sample period has ended. This means that the time between the end of the sample period and the time that all 12 data bits have been clocked o ut must n ot e xc eed 1.2 ms (effect iv e cl oc k fre­quency of 10kHz). Failure to meet this criteria may induce linearity errors into the conversion outside the rated specif icat ions. It sh ould b e note d that du ri ng the entire conversion cycle, the A/D Converter does not require a constant cloc k speed or du ty cycle, as long as all timing specification s are met .
6.3 Buffering/Filtering the Analog Inputs
If the signal source for the A/D Converter is not a low impedance source , it will ha v e to be b uffered or inaccu­rate conversion results may occur. It is also recom­mended that a filter be used to eliminate any signals that may be aliased back into the conversion results. This is illustrated in Fi gure 6-3 below where an op amp is used to drive the analog input of the MCP3202. This amplifier provides a low impedance output for the con­verter input and a low pass filter, which eliminates unwanted high frequency noise.
Low pass (anti-aliasing) filters can be designed using Microchip’s i nt eracti ve FilterLab
will calculate capacitor and resistor values, as well as, determine the number of poles that are required for the application. For more information on filtering signals, see the application note AN699

6.4 Layout Considerations
When layi ng out a printed ci rcuit board for u se with ana­log components, care should be taken to reduce noise wherever possible. A bypas s capacitor sh ould always be used with th is device and should be plac ed as clos e as possibl e to the d evice pin. A bypass c apa ci tor value
of 1µF is recommended. Digital and analo g trace s should be sepa rated a s muc h
as possible on the board and no traces should run underneath the device or the bypass capacitor. Extra precautions should be taken to keep traces with high frequency signals (such as clock lines) as far as possi­ble from analog traces.
Use of an analog ground plane is recommended in order to keep the ground potential the same for all devices on the board. Providing V devices in a “star” conf igurat ion can al so re duc e nois e by eliminating current return paths and associated errors. See Figure 6-4.
