The ADC10040 is a monolithic CMOS analog-to-digital converter capable of converting analog input signals into 10-bit
digital words at 40 Megasamples per second (MSPS). This
converter uses a differential, pipeline architecture with digital
error correction and an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit to
provide a complete conversion solution, and to minimize
power consumption, while providing excellent dynamic performance. A unique sample-and-hold stage yields a fullpower bandwidth of 400 MHz. Operating on a single 3.0V
power supply, this device consumes just 55.5 mW at
40 MSPS, including the reference current. The Standby
feature reduces power consumption to just 13.5 mW.
The differential inputs provide a full scale selectable input
swing of 2.0 V
single-ended input. Full use of the differential input is recommended for optimum performance. An internal +1.2V precision bandgap reference is used to set the ADC full-scale
range, and also allows the user to supply a buffered referenced voltage for those applications requiring increased accuracy. The output data format is 10-bit offset binary, or two’s
complement.
This device is available in the 28-lead TSSOP package and
will operate over the industrial temperature range of −40˚C to
+85˚C.

Functional Description
The ADC10040 uses a pipeline architecture and has error
correction circuitry to help ensure maximum performance.
ADC10040
Differential analog input signals are digitized to 10 bits. In
differential mode , each analog input signal should have a
peak-to-peak voltage equal to 1.0V, 0.75V or 0.5V, depending on the state of the IRS pin (pin 5), and be centered

(pin 5).
Applications Information
1.0 ANALOG INPUTS
The ADC10040 has two analog signal inputs, V
These two pins form a differential input pair. There is one
common mode pin V
mon mode input voltage.
1.1 REFERENCE PINS
The ADC10040 is designed to operate with a 1.2V reference,
but performs well with reference voltages in the range of
0.8V to 2.0V. Lower reference voltages will decrease the
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the ADC10040. It is very important that all grounds associated with the reference voltage and the input signal make connection to the analog
ground plane at a single point to minimize the effects of
noise currents in the ground path. The three Reference
Bypass Pins V

bypass purposes only. These pins should each be bypassed
to ground with a 0.1 µF capacitor. DO NOT LOAD these pins.
1.2 V
COM
PIN
This pin supplies a voltage for possible use to set the common mode input voltage. This pin may also be connnected to
-, so that VIN+ may be used as a single ended input. This

20077848
FIGURE 4. Input Voltage Waveform for a 2V
P-P
Single
Ended Input
The internal switching action at the analog inputs causes
energy to be output from the input pins. As the driving source
tries to compensate for this, it adds noise to the signal. To
prevent this, use 18Ω series resistors at each of the signal
inputs with a 25 pF capacitor across the inputs, as can be
seen in Figure 5. These components should be placed close
to the ADC because the input pins of the ADC is the most
sensitive part of the system and this is the last opportunity to
filter the input. The two 18Ω resistors and the 25 pF capacitors form a low-pass filter with a -3 dB frequency of 177 Mhz.
1.4 CLK PIN
The CLK signal controls the timing of the sampling process.
Drive the clock input with a stable, low jitter clock signal in
the range of 20 MHz to 40 MHz with rise and fall times of less
than 2 ns. The trace carrying the clock signal should be as
short as possible and should not cross any other signal line,
analog or digital, not even at 90˚. The CLK signal also drives
an internal state machine. If the CLK is interrupted, or its
frequency is too low, the charge on internal capacitors can
dissipate to the point where the accuracy of the output data
will degrade. This is what limits the lowest sample rate to
20 MSPS. The duty cycle of the clock signal can affect the
performance of any A/D Converter. Because achieving a
precise duty cycle is difficult, the ADC10040 is designed to
maintain performance over a range of duty cycles. While it is
specified and performance is guaranteed with a 50% clock
duty cycle, performance is typically maintained over a clock
duty cycle range of 40% to 60%.
1.5 STBY PIN
The STBY pin, when high, holds the ADC10040 in a powerdown mode to conserve power when the converter is not
being used. The power consumption in this state is 13.5 mW.
The output data pins are undefined in this mode. Power
consumption during power-down is not affected by the clock
frequency, or by whether there is a clock signal present. The
data in the pipeline is corrupted while in the power down.

1.6 DF PIN
The DF pin, when high, forces the ADC10040 to output the
2’s complement data format. When DF is tied low, the output
format is offset binary.
1.7 IRS PIN
The IRS (Input Range Select) pin defines the input signal
amplitude that will produce a full scale output. The table
below describes the function of the IRS pin.

1.8 OUTPUT PINS
The ADC10040 has 10 TTL/CMOS compatible Data Output
pins. The offset binary data is present at these outputs while
the DF and STBY pins are low. While the t
information about output timing, a simple way to capture a
valid output is to latch the data on the rising edge of the
conversion clock. Be very careful when driving a high capacitance bus. The more capacitance the output drivers
must charge for each conversion, the more instantaneous
digital current flows through V

. These large
charging current spikes can cause on-chip ground noise and
couple into the analog circuitry, degrading dynamic performance. Adequate bypassing, limiting output capacitance and
careful attention to the ground plane will reduce this problem. Additionally, bus capacitance beyond the specified
10 pF/pin will cause t
to increase, making it difficult to

properly latch the ADC output data. The result could be an
apparent reduction in dynamic performance. To minimize
noise due to output switching, minimize the load currents at
the digital outputs. This can be done by connecting buffers
between the ADC outputs and any other circuitry. Only one
driven input should beADC pins, will isolate the outputs from
trace and other circuit capacitances and limit the output
currents, which could otherwise result in performance degradation.
1.9 APPLICATION SCHEMATICS
The following figures show simple examples of using the
ADC10040. Figure 5 shows a typical differentially driven
