GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TC14433 is a low power, high-performance, monolithic CMOS 3-1/2 digit A/D converter. The TC14433 combines both analog and digital circuits on a single IC, thus
minimizing the number of external components. This dualslope A/D converter provides automatic polarity and zero
correction with the addition of two external resistors and two
capacitors. The full-scale voltage range of this ratiometric IC
extends from 199.9 millivolts to 1.999 volts. The TC14433
can operate over a wide range of power supply voltages,
including batteries and standard 5-volt supplies.
The TC14433 will interface with the TC7211A LCD
display driver.
The TC14433A features improved performance over
the industry standard TC14433. Rollover, which is the
measurement of identical positive and negative signals, is
guaranteed to have the same reading within one count for
the TC14433A. Power consumption of the TC14433A is
typically 4 mW, approximately one-half that of the industry
standard TC14433.

NOTES: 1. Accuracy — The accuracy of the meter at full-scale is the accuracy of the setting of the reference voltage. Zero is recalculated during
each conversion cycle. The meaningful specification is linearity. In other words, the deviation from correct reading for all inputs other
than positive full-scale and zero is defined as the linearity specification.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The TC14433 CMOS IC becomes a modified dualslope A/D with a minimum of external components. This IC
has the customary CMOS digital logic circuitry, as well as
CMOS analog circuitry. It provides the user with digital
functions (such as counters, latches, multiplexers) and
analog functions (such as operational amplifiers and comparators) on a single chip.
Features of this system include auto-zero, high input
impedances and auto-polarity. Low power consumption
and a wide range of power supply voltages are also advantages of this CMOS device. The system's auto-zero function
compensates for the offset voltage of the internal amplifiers
and comparators. In this "ratiometric system," the output
reading is the ratio of the unknown voltage to the reference
voltage, where a ratio of 1 is equal to the maximum count of
1999. It takes approximately 16,000 clock periods to complete one conversion cycle. Each conversion cycle may be
divided into 6 segments. Figure 7 shows the conversion
cycle in 6 segments for both positive and negative inputs.
Segment 1 — The offset capacitor (CO), which com-
pensates for the input offset voltages of the buffer and
integrator amplifiers, is charged during this period. However, the integrator capacitor is shorted. This segment
requires 4000 clock periods.
Segment 2 — During this segment, the integrator
output decreases to the comparator threshold voltage. At
this time, a number of counts equivalent to the input offset
voltage of the comparator is stored in the offset latches for
later use in the auto-zero process. The time for this segment
is variable and less than 800 clock periods.

period with the reference voltage as the input to the integrator. Segment 5 of the conversion cycle has a time equal to
the number of counts stored in the offset storage latches
during Segment 2. As a result, the system zeros automatically.
Segment 6 — This is an extension of Segment 5. The
time period for this portion is 4000 clock periods. The results
of the A/D conversion cycle are determined in this portion of
the conversion cycle.
Figure 10 is an example of a 3-1/2 digit voltmeter using
the TC14433 with common-anode displays. This system
requires a 2.5V reference. Full-scale may be adjusted to
1.999V or 199.9 mV. Input overrange is indicated by flashing
a display. This display uses LEDs with common anode digit
lines. Power supply for this system is shown as a dual ±5V
supply; however, the TC14433 will operate over a wide
voltage range (see recommended operating conditions,
page 2).
The circuit in Figure 11 shows a 3-1/2 digit LCD voltmeter. The 14024B provides the low frequency square wave
signal drive to the LCD backplane. Dual power supplies are
shown here; however, one supply may be used when VSS is
connected to VEE. In this case, VAG must be at least 2.8V
above VEE.
When only segments b and c of the decoder are connected to the 1/2 digit of the display, 4, 0, 7 and 3 appear as 1.
The overrange indication (Q3 = 0 and Q0 = 1) occurs
when the count is greater than 1999; e.g., 1.999V for a
reference of 2V. The underrange indication, useful for autoranging circuits, occurs when the count is less than 180; e.g.,
0.180V for a reference of 2V.
CAUTION
If the most significant digit is connected to a
display other than a "1" only, such as a full
digit display, segments other than b and c must
be disconnected. The BCD to 7-segment
decoder must blank on BCD inputs 1010 to 1111.
Figure 14 is an example of a 3-1/2 digit LED voltmeter
with a minimum of external components (only 11 additional
components). In this circuit, the 14511B provides the segment drive and the 75492 or 1413 provides sink for digit
current. Display is blanked during the overrange condition.
