A new differential analog voltage input allows increasing the common–mode rejection and offsetting
the analog zero input voltage value. In addition, the voltage reference input can be adjusted to allow
encoding any similar analog voltage span to the full 8 bits of resolution.

Note 1. Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of the device may be im-
paired.
Note 2. All voltage are measured with respect to GND, unless otherwise specified. The separate
A GND point should always be wired to the D GND.

Note 4. The NTE2053 A/D does not require a zero adjust.
Note 5. For VIN(–) ≥ VIN(+) the digital output code will be 0000 0000. Two on–chip diodes are tied
to each analog input which will forward conduct for analog input voltages one diode drop belwo GND or one diode drop greater than the VCC supply . Be careful, during testing at low V
CC
levels (4.5V), as high level analog inputs (5V) can cause this input diode to conduct – especially at elevated temperatures, and cause errors for analog inputs near full–scale. The spec
allows 50mV forward bias of either diode. This means that as long as the analog VIN does
not exceed the supply voltage by more than 50mV, the output code will be correct. To
achieve an absolute 0V to 5V input voltage range will therefore require a minimum supply
voltage of 4.950V over temperature variations, initial tolerance, and loading.

grade. For lower clock frequencies, the duty cycle limits can be extended so long as the minimum clock high time interval or minimum clock low time interval is no less than 275ns.
Note 7. With an asynchronous start pulse, up to 8 clock periods may be required before the internal
clock phases are proper to start the conversion process. The start request is internally
latched.
Note 8. The CS input is assumed to bracket the WR strobe input and therefore timing is dependent
on the WR pulse width. An arbitrary wide pulse width will hold the converter on a reset mode
and the start of conversion is initiated by the low to high transition of the WR pulse.
