DESCRIPTION
The ADS7845 is a 12-bit sampling analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) with a synchronous serial interface
and low on-resistance switches for driving touch
screens. Typical power dissipation is 750µW at a
125kHz throughput rate and a +2.7V supply. The

which reduces typical power dissipation to under
0.5µW. The ADS7845 is guaranteed down to 2.7V
operation.
Low power, high speed, and on-board switches make
the ADS7845 ideal for battery-operated systems such
as personal digital assistants with resistive touch screens
and other portable equipment. The ADS7845 is available in a 16-lead SSOP package and is guaranteed

ADS7845
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADS7845 is a classic Successive Approximation Register (SAR) analog-to-digital (A/D) converter. The architecture is based on capacitive redistribution which inherently
includes a sample/hold function. The converter is fabricated
on a 0.6µs CMOS process.
The basic operation of the ADS7845 is shown in Figure 1.
The device requires an external reference and an external
clock. It operates from a single supply of 2.0V to 5.25V. The
external reference can be any voltage between 1V and +VCC.
The value of the reference voltage directly sets the input
range of the converter. The average reference input current
depends on the conversion rate of the ADS7845.
The analog input to the converter is provided via the WIPER
input. In the measurement mode, the lower right corner of the
panel is connected to GND and the upper left corner is
connected to VCC. When the lower left corner is connected to
GND and the upper right corner is connected to VCC, a “Y”
measurement is made. When the lower left corner is connected to VCC and the upper right corner is connected
to GND, a “X” measurement is made. By maintaining a
differential input to the converter and a differential reference
architecture, it is possible to negate the switch’s on-resistance
error (should this be a source of error for the particular
measurement).
ANALOG INPUT
Figure 2 shows a block diagram of the input multiplexer on
the ADS7845, the differential input of the A/D converter, and
the converter’s differential reference. Table I and Table II
show the relationship between the A2, A1, A0, and SER/DFR
control bits and the configuration of the ADS7845. The
control bits are provided serially via the DIN pin—see the
Digital Interface section of this data sheet for more details.
When the converter enters the hold mode, the voltage difference between the +IN and –IN inputs (see Figure 2) is
captured on the internal capacitor array. The input current on
the analog inputs depends on the conversion rate of the
device. During the sample period, the source must charge the
internal sampling capacitor (typically 25pF). After the capacitor has been fully charged, there is no further input
current. The rate of charge transfer from the analog source to
the converter is a function of conversion rate.

FIGURE 2. Simplified Diagram of ADS7845 Input and Panel Drivers.
REFERENCE INPUT
The voltage difference between +REF and –REF (see Figure
2) sets the analog input range. The ADS7845 will operate
with a reference in the range of 1V to +VCC. There are several
critical items concerning the reference input and its wide
voltage range. As the reference voltage is reduced, the analog
voltage weight of each digital output code is also reduced.
This is often referred to as the Least Significant Bit (LSB)
size and is equal to the reference voltage divided by 4096.
Any offset or gain error inherent in the A/D converter will
There is also a critical item regarding the reference when
making measurements where the switch drivers are on. For
this discussion, it’s useful to consider the basic operation of
the ADS7845 as shown in Figure 1. This particular application shows the device being used to digitize a resistive
touch screen. A measurement of the current Y position of
the pointing device is made with the WIPER input to the
A/D converter, turning on the UL and UR drivers to VCC,
grounding LL and LR, and digitizing the voltage on the
WIPER (see Figure 3 for a block diagram).
appear to increase, in terms of LSB size, as the reference
voltage is reduced. For example, if the offset of a given
converter is 2 LSBs with a 2.5V reference, it will typically be
5 LSBs with a 1V reference. In each case, the actual offset of
the device is the same, 1.22mV. With a lower reference
voltage, more care must be taken to provide a clean layout
including adequate bypassing, a clean (low noise, low ripple)
power supply, a low-noise reference, and a low-noise input
signal.
The voltage into the V
input is not buffered and directly
REF
drives the capacitor digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) portion of the ADS7845. Typically, the input current is 13µA
with V
= 2.5V and f
REF
= 125kHz. This value will vary
SAMPLE
by a few microamps depending on the result of the conversion. The reference current diminishes directly with both
conversion rate and reference voltage. As the current from the
reference is drawn on each bit decision, clocking the converter more quickly during a given conversion period will not
reduce overall current drain from the reference.

Under the situation outlined so far, it would not be possible
to achieve a zero volt input or a full-scale input regardless of
where the pointing device is on the touch screen because
some voltage is lost across the internal switches. In addition,
the internal switch resistance is unlikely to track the resistance of the touch screen, providing an additional source of
error.
This situation can be remedied as shown in Figure 4. By
setting the SER/DFR bit LOW, the +REF and –REF inputs
are connected directly to Y+ and Y–. This makes the analogto-digital conversion ratiometric. The result of the conversion is always a percentage of the external resistance, regardless of how it changes in relation to the on-resistance of
the internal switches. NOTE: There is an important consideration regarding power dissipation when using the
ratiometric mode of operation. See the Power Dissipation
section for more details.

processor and the converter consists of 8 clock cycles. One
complete conversion can be accomplished with three serial
communications, for a total of 24 clock cycles on the DCLK
input.
The first 8 clock cycles are used to provide the control byte
via the DIN pin. When the converter has enough information
about the following conversion to set the input multiplexer,
switches, and reference inputs appropriately, the converter
enters the acquisition (sample) mode and, if needed, the
internal switches are turned on. After three more clock
cycles, the control byte is complete and the converter enters
the conversion mode. At this point, the input sample/hold
goes into the hold mode and the internal switches may
turn off. The next 12 clock cycles accomplish the actual
analog-to-digital conversion. If the conversion is ratiometric
(SER/DFR LOW), the internal switches are on during the
conversion. A 13th clock cycle is needed for the last bit of
the conversion result. Three more clock cycles are needed to
complete the last byte (DOUT will be LOW). These will be
ignored by the converter.
Control Byte
Also shown in Figure 5 is the placement and order of the
control bits within the control byte. Tables III and IV give
detailed information about these bits. The first bit, the ‘S’ bit,
must always be HIGH and indicates the start of the control
byte. The ADS7845 will ignore inputs on the DIN pin until
the start bit is detected. The next three bits (A2 - A0) select
the active panel drivers (see Tables I and II and Figure 2).
The MODE bit determines the number of bits for each
conversion, either 12 bits (LOW) or 8 bits (HIGH).
The SER/DFR bit controls the reference mode: either singleended (HIGH) or differential (LOW). (The differential mode
is also referred to as the ratiometric conversion mode.) In

Or, in some cases, it could be possible to power the converter directly from a precision reference. Most references
can provide enough power for the ADS7845, but they might
not be able to supply enough current for the external load
(such as a resistive touch screen).

power-down mode between conversions. When a new conversion is initiated, the device will resume normal operation
instantly—no delay is needed to allow the device to power
up and the very first conversion will be valid. There are two
power-down modes: one where PENIRQ is disabled and
one where it is enabled.

16 Clocks per Conversion
The control bits for conversion n+1 can be overlapped with
conversion ‘n’ to allow for a conversion every 16 clock
cycles, as shown in Figure 6. This figure also shows possible
serial communication occurring with other serial peripherals
between each byte transfer between the processor and the
converter. This is possible provided that each conversion
completes within 1.6ms of starting. Otherwise, the signal
that has been captured on the input sample/hold may droop
enough to affect the conversion result. Note that the ADS7845
is fully powered while other serial communications are
taking place during a conversion.
Digital Timing
Figure 7 and Table VI provide detailed timing for the digital
interface of the ADS7845.
15 Clocks per Conversion
Figure 8 provides the fastest way to clock the ADS7845.
This method will not work with the serial interface of most
microcontrollers and digital signal processors as they are
generally not capable of providing 15 clock cycles per serial
transfer. However, this method could be used with Field
Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) or Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). This effectively increases
the maximum conversion rate of the converter beyond the
values given in the Specification table, which assume 16
clock cycles per conversion.

frequency (“scaling” DCLK to match the conversion rate) or
maintaining DCLK at the highest frequency and reducing
the number of conversions per second. In the later case, the
converter spends an increasing percentage of its time in
power-down mode (assuming the auto power-down mode is
active).

8-Bit Conversion
The ADS7845 provides an 8-bit conversion mode that can
be used when faster throughput is needed and the digital
result is not as critical. By switching to the 8-bit mode, a
conversion is complete four clock cycles earlier. This could
be used in conjunction with serial interfaces that provide 12bit transfers or two conversions could be accomplished with
three 8-bit transfers. Not only does this shorten each conversion by four bits (25% faster throughput), but each conversion can actually occur at a faster clock rate. This is because
the internal settling time of the ADS7845 is not as critical—
Another important consideration for power dissipation is the
reference mode of the converter. In the single-ended reference mode, the converter’s internal switches are on only
when the analog input voltage is being acquired (see Figure
5). Thus, the external device, such as a resistive touch
screen, is only powered during the acquisition period. In the
differential reference mode, the external device must be
powered throughout the acquisition and conversion periods
(see Figure 5). If the conversion rate is high, this could
substantially increase power dissipation.
settling to better than 8 bits is all that is needed. The clock
rate can be as much as 50% faster. The faster clock rate and
fewer clock cycles combine to provide a 2x increase in
conversion rate.
LAYOUT
The following layout suggestions should provide the most
optimum performance from the ADS7845. However, many
POWER DISSIPATION
There are two major power modes for the ADS7845: full power
(PD1 - PD0 = 11B) and auto power-down (PD1 - PD0 = 00B).
When operating at full speed and 16-clocks per conversion (as
shown in Figure 6), the ADS7845 spends most of its time
acquiring or converting. There is little time for auto powerdown, assuming that this mode is active. Therefore, the difference between full power mode and auto power-down is negligible. If the conversion rate is decreased by simply slowing the
frequency of the DCLK input, the two modes remain approximately equal. However, if the DCLK frequency is kept at the
maximum rate during a conversion but conversions are simply
done less often, the difference between the two modes is
dramatic.
portable applications have conflicting requirements concerning power, cost, size, and weight. In general, most
portable devices have fairly “clean” power and grounds
because most of the internal components are very low
power. This situation would mean less bypassing for the
converter’s power and less concern regarding grounding.
Still, each situation is unique and the following suggestions
should be reviewed carefully.
For optimum performance, care should be taken with the
physical layout of the ADS7845 circuitry. The basic SAR
architecture is sensitive to glitches or sudden changes on the
power supply, reference, ground connections, and digital
inputs that occur just prior to latching the output of the
analog comparator. Thus, during any single conversion for
an ‘n-bit’ SAR converter, there are n ‘windows’ in which
11

large external transient voltages can easily affect the conversion result. Such glitches might originate from switching
power supplies, nearby digital logic, and high power devices. The degree of error in the digital output depends on
the reference voltage, layout, and the exact timing of the
external event. The error can change if the external event
changes in time with respect to the DCLK input.
With this in mind, power to the ADS7845 should be clean
and well bypassed. A 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor should
be placed as close to the device as possible. A 1µF to 10µF
capacitor may also be needed if the impedance of the
connection between +VCC and the power supply is high.
The reference should be similarly bypassed with a 0.1µF
capacitor. If the reference voltage originates from an op
amp, make sure that it can drive the bypass capacitor without
oscillation. The ADS7845 draws very little current from the
reference on average, but it does place larger demands on the
reference circuitry over short periods of time (on each rising
edge of DCLK during a conversion).
The ADS7845 architecture offers no inherent rejection of
noise or voltage variation in regards to the reference input.
This is of particular concern when the reference input is tied
to the power supply. Any noise and ripple from the supply
will appear directly in the digital results. While high frequency noise can be filtered out, voltage variation due to line
frequency (50Hz or 60Hz) can be difficult to remove.
The GND pin should be connected to a clean ground point.
In many cases, this will be the “analog” ground. Avoid
connections which are too near the grounding point of a
microcontroller or digital signal processor. If needed, run a
ground trace directly from the converter to the power supply
entry or battery connection point. The ideal layout will
include an analog ground plane dedicated to the converter
and associated analog circuitry.
In the specific case of use with a resistive touch screen, care
should be taken with the connection between the converter
and the touch screen. Since resistive touch screens have
fairly low resistance, the interconnection should be as short
and robust as possible. Longer connections will be a source
of error, much like the on-resistance of the internal switches.
Likewise, loose connections can be a source of error when
the contact resistance changes with flexing or vibrations.
PENIRQ Output
The pen interrupt output function is detailed in Figure 11. By
connecting a pull-up resistor to VCC (typically 100kΩ), the
PENIRQ output is HIGH. While in the power-down mode,
with PD0 = PD1 = 0, the lower-right panel corner is
connected to GND and the PENIRQ output is connected to
the WIPER input. When the panel is touched, the PENIRQ
output goes LOW, due to the current path through the panel
to GND, initiating an interrupt to the processor. During the
measurement cycles for X and Y position, the PENIRQ
output diode will be internally connected to GND and the
WIPER disconnected from the PENIRQ diode to eliminate
any leakage current from the pull-up resistor to flow through
the WIPER, thus causing no errors.
In addition, when the DIN has selected A2 = 1, A1 = 1,
A0 = 0, and the ADS7845 is commanded into the powerdown mode (PD0 and PD1 = 0) and CS is LOW (when CS
is HI, the DOUT line is high impedance), the DOUT will be
LOW (all “0”s) during no touch and HI (all “1”s) when the
panel is touched. This feature eliminates the need for an
additional port to detect panel touch. Since all panels have
end resistance, all “0”s and all “1”s are an unused set of
codes.
