rev. 0 ad7708/ad7718 C15C adc circuit information the ad7708/ad7718 incorporates a 10-channel multiplexer with a sigma-delta adc, on-chip programmable gain amplifier and digital filtering intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range, low frequency signals such as those in weigh-scale, strain-gauge, pressure transducer, or temperature measurement applications. the ad7708 offers 16-bit resolution while the ad7718 offers 24-bit resolution. the ad7718 is a pin-for-pin compatible version of the ad7708. the ad7718 offers a direct upgradable path from a 16-bit to a 24-bit system without requiring any hardware changes and only minimal software changes. these parts can be configured as four/five fully-differential input channels or as eight/ten pseudo-differential input chan- nels referenced to aincom. the channel is buffered and can be programmed for one of eight input ranges from 20 mv to 2.56 v. buffering the input channel means that the part can handle significant source impedances on the analog input and that r, c filtering (for noise rejection or rfi reduction) can be placed on the analog inputs if required. these input channels are intended to convert signals directly from sensors without the need for external signal conditioning. the adc employs a sigma-delta conversion technique to realize up to 24 bits of no missing codes performance. the sigma-delta modulator converts the sampled input signal into a digital pulse train whose duty cycle contains the digital information. a sinc 3 programmable low-pass filter is then employed to decimate the modulator output data stream to give a valid data conversion result at programmable output rates. the signal chain has two modes of operation, chop enabled and chop disabled. the chop bit in the mode register enables and disables the chopping scheme. signal chain overview (chop enabled, chop = 0) with chop = 0, chopping is enabled, this is the default and gives optimum performance in terms of drift performance. with chop ping enabled, the available output rates vary from 5.35 hz (186.77 ms) to 105.03 hz (9.52 ms). a block diagram of the adc input channel with chop enabled is shown in figure 4. the sampling frequency of the modulator loop is many times higher than the bandwidth of the input signal. the integrator in the modulator shapes the quantization noise (which results from the analog-to-digital conversion) so that the noise is pushed toward one-half of the modulator frequency. the output of the sigma-delta modulator feeds directly into the digital filter. the digital filter then band-limits the response to a frequency signifi- cantly lower than one-half of the modulator frequency. in this manner, the 1-bit output of the comparator is translated into a band limited, low noise output from the ad7708/ad7718 adc. the ad7708/ad7718 filter is a low-pass, sinc 3 or (sinx/x) 3 filter whose primary function is to remove the quantization noise introduced at the modulator. the cutoff frequency and deci- mated output data rate of the filter are programmable via the sf word loaded to the filter register. the complete signal chain is chopped resulting in excellent dc offset and offset drift specifica- tions and is extremely beneficial in applications where drift, noise rejection, and optimum emi rejection are important factors. with chopping, the adc repeatedly reverses its inputs. the decimated digital output words from the sinc 3 filters, therefore, have a positive offset and negative offset term included. as a result, a final summing stage is included so that each output word from the filter is summed and averaged with the previous filter output to produce a new valid output result to be written to the adc data register. the programming of the sinc 3 deci- mation factor is restricted to an 8-bit register sf, the actual decimation factor is the register value times 8. the decimated output rate from the sinc 3 filter (and the adc conversion rate) will therefore be f sf f adc mod = 1 3 1 8 where f adc in the adc conversion rate. sf is the decimal equivalent of the word loaded to the filter register. f mod is the modulator sampling rate of 32.768 khz. the chop rate of the channel is half the output data rate: f f chop adc = 1 2 as shown in the block diagram, the sinc 3 filter outputs alter- nately contain +v os and Cv os , where v os is the respective channel offset. this offset is removed by performing a running average of two. this average by two means that the settling time to any ch ange in programming of the adc will be twice the normal conversion time, while an asynchronous step change on the analog input will not be fully reflected until the third subse- quent output. t f t settle adc adc == 2 2 the allowable range for sf is 13 to 255 with a default of 69 (45h). the corresponding conversion rates, conversion times, and settling times are shown in table i. note that the conver- sion time increases by 0.732 ms for each increment in sf. sinc 3 filter mux buf pga -

rev. 0 C32C ad7708/ad7718 configuring the ad7708/ad7718 all user-accessible registers on the ad7708 and ad7718 are accessed via the serial interface. communication with any of these registers is initiated by first writing to the communica- tions register. figures 16, 17, and 18 show flow diagrams for initializing the adc, a sequence for calibrating the adc chan- nels, and a routine that cycles through and reads all channels. figure 16 shows a flowchart detailing necessary programming steps required to initialize the adc. the following are the general programming steps required: 1. configure and initialize the microcontroller or microprocessor serial port. 2. initialize the ad7708/ad7718 by configuring the following registers: a. iocon to configure the digital i/o port. b. filter to configure the update rate for each channel. c. adccon to select the active input channel, select the analog input range, and select unipolar or bipolar operation. d. mode to configure the operating mode. the mode register selects chop or nonchop operation, buffered/ unbuffered operation of the aincom input, 8-/10- channel mode of operation and reference select along with the selection of conversion, calibration or idle modes of operation. all operations consist of a write to the communications register to specify the next operation as a write to a specified register. data is then written to the specified register. when each sequence is complete, the adc defaults to waiting for another write to the communications register to specify the next operation. write to communications register setting up next operation to be a write to the mode register. calibrate and select mode of operation write to communications register setting up next operation to be a write to the adc control register. configure adccon write to communications register setting up next operation to be a write to the filter register. set sf word for required update rate write to communications register selecting next operation to be a write to the iocon register and configure this register power-on/reset for ad7708/ad7718 configure and initialize c/ p serial port start figure 16. initializing ad7708/ad7718 end cal another channel write to mode register selecting full-scale calibration write to mode register selecting zero-scale calibration write to adccon selecting channel and configuring input range and unipolar/bipolar mode calibration routine md bits = 001? no yes md bits = 001? no yes yes no figure 17. calibrating the ad7708/ad7718 figure 17 shows a flowchart detailing necessary programming steps required when calibrating the ad7708/ad7718. the ad7708/ad7718 have dedicated calibration register pairs for each of the fully-differential input channels. having a dedicated register pair per channel allows each channel to be calibrated as part of the initialization and the adc picks up the relevant coefficients for each channel during normal operation. when operating is pseudo-differential mode channels share calibration register pairs. channels that share coefficients should be config- ured with the same operating conditions to avoid having to calibrate each time a channel is switched, especially with chop mode disabled. the ad7708/ad7718 are factory-calibrated with chop mode enabled and, therefore, if the adc is operated at the same conditions as the factory-calibration field calibra- tions will not be required. extremely low offset error and offset and gain drift errors are a by product of the chopping scheme. when operating with chop mode disabled, the user can achieve faster throughput times. an offset calibration is required with chop disabled when a gain or temperature change occurs. the following are the general programming steps required when calibrating a channel on the ad7708/ad7718.

rev. 0 C34C ad7708/ad7718 digital interface as previously outlined, the ad7708/ad7718s programmable functions are controlled using a set of on-chip registers. data is written to these registers via the parts serial interface and read access to the on-chip registers is also provided by this interface. all communications to the part must start with a write operation to the communications register. after power-on or reset , the device expects a write to its communications register. the data written to this register determines whether the next operation to the part is a read or a write operation and also determines to which register this read or write operation occurs. therefore, write access to any of the other registers on the part starts with a write operation to the communications register followed by a write to the selected register. a read operation from any other register on the part (including the output data register) starts with a write operation to the communications register followed by a read operation from the selected register. the ad7708/ad7718s serial interface consists of five signals, cs , sclk, din, dout and rdy . the din line is used for transferring data into the on-chip registers while the dout line is used for accessing data from the on-chip registers. sclk is the serial clock input for the device and all data transfers (either on din or dout) take place with respect to this sclk signal. the rdy line is used as a status signal to indicate when data is ready to be read from the devicess data register. rdy goes low when a new data word is available in the output register. it is reset high when a read operation from the data register is complete. it also goes high prior to the updating of the output register to indicate when not to read from the device to ensure that a data read is not attempted while the register is being updated. cs is used to select the device. it can be used to decode these devices in systems where a number of parts are connected to the serial bus. figures 2 and 3 show timing diagrams for interfacing to the ad7708/ad7718 with cs used to decode the part. figure 3 is for a read operation from the ad7708/ad7718 output shift register while figure 2 shows a write operation to the input shift register. it is possible to read the same data twice from the out- put register even though the rdy line returns high after the first read operation. care must be taken, however, to ensure that the read operations have been completed before the next output update is about to take place. the serial interface can operate in three-wire mode by tying the cs input low. in this case, the sclk, din and dout lines are used to communicate with the device and the status of the rdy bit can be obtained by interrogating the status regis- ter. this scheme is suitable for interfacing to microcontrollers. if cs is required as a decoding signal, it can be generated from a port bit. for microcontroller interfaces, it is recommended that the sclk idles high between data transfers. the ad7708/ad7718 can also be operated with cs used as a frame synchronization signal. this scheme is suitable for dsp interfaces. in this case, the first bit (msb) is effectively clocked out by cs since cs would normally occur after the falling edge of sclk in dsps. the sclk can continue to run between data transfers provided the timing numbers are obeyed. the serial interface can be reset by exercising the reset input on the part. it can also be reset by writing a series of 1s on the din input. if a logic 1 is written to the ad7708/ad7718 din line for at least 32 serial clock cycles, the serial interface is reset. this ensures that in three-wire systems, if the interface is lost either via a software error or by some glitch in the system, it can be reset back to a known state. this state returns the inter face to where the adc is expecting a write operation to its commu- nications register. this operation resets the contents of all registers to their power-on-reset values. some microprocessor or microcontroller serial interfaces have a single serial data line. in this case, it is possible to connect the adcs dout and din lines together and connect them to the single data line of the processor. a 10 k ? pull-up resistor should be used on this single data line. in this case, if the i nterface is lost, because the read and write operations share the same line, the procedure to reset it back to a known state is somewhat different than previously described. it requires a read operation of 24 serial clocks followed by a write operation wh ere a logic 1 is written for at least 32 serial clock cycles to ensure that the serial interface is back into a known state. microcomputer/microprocessor interfacing the flexible serial interface allows for easy interface to most microcomputers and microprocessors. the flowcharts of figures 16, 17, and 18 outline the sequence that should be followed when i nterfacing a microcontroller or microprocessor to the ad7708/ad7718. figures 19, 20, and 21 show some typical interface circuits. the serial interface on the ad7708/ad7718 is capable of oper- ating from just three wires and is compatible with spi interface protocols. the three-wire operation makes the part ideal for isolated systems where minimizing the number of interface lines minimizes the number of opto-isolators required in the system. the serial clock input is a schmitt-triggered input to accommo- date slow edges from optocouplers. the rise and fall times of other digital inputs to the ad7708/ad7718 should be no slower than 1 s. most of the registers on the ad7708/ad7718 are 8-bit regis- ters, which facilitates easy interfacing to the 8-bit serial ports of microcontrollers. the data register on the ad7718 is 24 bits wide, the adc data register on the ad7708 is 16 bits wide, and the offset and gain registers are 16-bit registers on the ad7708 and 24-bit registers on the ad7718; however, data transfers to these registers can consist of multiple 8-bit transfers to the serial port of the microcontroller. dsp processors and microproces- sors generally transfer 16 bits of data in a serial data operation. some of these processors, such as the adsp-2105, have the facility to program the amount of cycles in a serial transfer. this allows the user to tailor the number of bits in any transfer to match the register length of the required register in the ad7708/ ad7718. even though some of the registers on the ad7708/ad7718 are only eight bits in length, communicating with two of these regis ters in successive write operations can be handled as a single 16-bit data transfer if required. for example, if the filter register is to be updated, the processor must first write to the communications register (saying that the next operation is a write to the filter register) and then write eight bits to the f ilter register. if required, this can all be done in a single 16-bit transfer because once the eight serial clocks of the write opera- tion to the communications register have been completed, the part immediately sets itself up for a write operation to the filter register.
rev. 0 ad7708/ad7718 C35C ad7708/ad7718 to 68hc11 interface figure 19 shows an interface between the ad7708/ad7718 and the 68hc11 microcontroller. the diagram shows the minimum (3-wire) interface with cs on the ad7708/ad7718 hardwired low. in this scheme, the rdy bit of the status register is monitored to determine when the data register is updated. an alternative scheme, which increases the number of inter- face lines to four, is to monitor the rdy output line from the ad7708/ad7718. the monitoring of the rdy line can be done in two ways. first, rdy can be connected to one of the 68hc11s port bits (such as pc0), which is configured as an input. this port bit is then polled to determine the status of rdy . the second scheme is to use an interrupt driven system, in which case the rdy output is connected to the irq input of the 68hc11. for interfaces that require control of the cs input on the ad7708/ad7718, one of the port bits of the 68hc11 (such as pc1), which is configured as an output, can be used to drive the cs input. 68hc11 v dd ss sck miso mosi reset sclk cs din dout v dd ad7708/ ad7718 figure 19. ad7708/ad7718-to-68hc11 interface the 68hc11 is configured in the master mode with its cpol bit set to a logic 1 and its cpha bit set to a logic 1. when the 68hc11 is configured like this, its sclk line idles high between data transfers. the ad7708/ad7718 is not capable of full duplex operation. if the ad7708/ad7718 is configured for a write operation, no data appears on the dout lines even when the sclk input is active. similarly, if the ad7708/ad7718 is config- ured for a read operation, data presented to the part on the din line is ignored even when sclk is active. ad7708/ad7718-to-8051 interface an interface circuit between the ad7708/ad7718 and the 8xc51 microcontroller is shown in figure 20. the diagram shows the minimum number of interface connections with cs on the ad7708/ad7718 hardwired low. in the case of the 8xc51 interface the minimum number of interconnects is just two. in this scheme, the rdy bit of the status register is monitored to determine when the data register is updated. the alternative scheme, which increases the number of interface lines to three, is to monitor the rdy output line from the ad7708/ad7718. the monitoring of the rdy line can be done in two ways. first, rdy can be connected to one of the 8xc51s port bits (such as p1.0) which is configured as an input. this port bit is then polled to determine the status of rdy . the second scheme is to use an interrupt-driven system, in which case the rdy output is connected to the int1 input of the 8xc51. for interfaces that require control of the cs input on the ad7708/ad7718, one of the port bits of the 8xc51 (such as p1.1), which is configured as an output, can be used to drive the cs input. the 8xc51 is configured in its mode 0 serial interface mode. its serial interface contains a single data line. as a result, the dout and din pins of the ad7708/ad7718 should be connected together with a 10 k ? pull-up resistor. the serial clock on the 8xc51 idles high between data transfers. the 8xc51 outputs the lsb first in a write operation, while the ad7708/ad7718 expects the msb first so the data to be trans- mitted has to be rearranged before being written to the output serial register. similarly, the ad7708/ad7718 outputs the msb first during a read operation while the 8xc51 expects the lsb first. therefore, the data read into the serial buffer needs to be rearranged before the correct data word from the ad7708/ ad7718 is available in the accumulator. dv dd 8xc51 ad7708/ ad7718 p3.0 p3.1 reset sclk cs din dout dv dd 10k figure 20. ad7708/ad7718-to-8xc51 interface

rev. 0 ad7708/ad7718 C37C analog input channels the input multiplexer on ad7708/ad7718 can be configured as either an 8- or 10-input channel device. this configuration is selected using the chcon bit in the mode register. with chcon = 0 (figure 23), the user has eight input channels; these can be configured as eight pseudo-differential input channels with respect to aincom or four fully-differential input channels. in this configuration the user can select refin1 or refin 2 as the reference for the selected channel using the refsel bit in the mode register. ain6 ain5 ain4 ain3 ain2 ain1 ad7708/ ad7718 ain8 ain7 refin1(+) aincom refin1( ) refin2(+) refin2( ) ain6 ain5 ain4 ain3 ain2 ain1 ain8 ain7 refin1(+) aincom refin1( ) refin2(+) refin2( ) figure 23. analog input and reference options with chcon = 0 with chcon = 1 (figure 24), the user has 10 input channels that can be configured as 10 pseudo-differential input channels with respect to aincom or as five fully-differential input chan- nels. the contents of the chcon bit overrides the refsel bit. if the adc is configured in five fully-differential or 10 pseudo- differential input channel mode, the refsel bit setting is irrelevant as only refin1 is available. channel selection bits ch3, ch2, chi, and ch0 in the adccon register select the input channel. the input multiplexer switches the selected input channel to the on-chip buffer amplifier and sigma-delta converter. when the analog input channel is switched, the settling time of the part must elapse before a new valid word is available from the adc. if any two inputs are configured as a differential input pair, this input is buffered and the common-mode and absolute input volt- age is restricted to a range between agnd + 100 mv and av dd C 100 mv. care must be taken in setting up the common-mode voltage and input voltage range to ensure that these limits are not exceeded, otherwise there will be a degradation in linearity and noise performance. ain6 ain5 ain4 ain3 ain2 ain1 ad7708/ ad7718 ain8 ain7 refin1(+) aincom refin1( ) ain9 ain10 ain6 ain5 ain4 ain3 ain2 ain1 ain8 ain7 refin1(+) aincom refin1( ) ain9 ain10 figure 24. analog input and reference options with chcon = 1 single-ended operation the negbuf bit in the mode register is used to control the operation of the input buffer on the aincom pin when config- ured for pseudo-differential mode of operation. if cleared, the analog negative input (aincom) is unbuffered. it should be noted that the unbuffered input path on the aincom provides a dynamic load to the driving source. therefore, resistor/capacitor combinations on this input pin can cause dc gain errors depend- ing on the output impedance of the source that is driving the aincom input. aincom is tied to agnd for single-ended operation. this enables all pseudo-differential inputs to act as single-ended analog inputs. all analog inputs still operate in buffered mode and their common-mode and absolute input voltage is restricted to a range between agnd + 100 mv and av dd C 100 mv. chop mode of operation ( chop = 0) the signal chain on the ad7708/ad7718 can be operated with chopping enabled or disabled. chopping is enabled or disabled using the chop bit in the mode register. the default mode of operation is for chop enabled ( chop = 0). optimum perfor- mance in terms of minimizing offset error and offset and gain drift performance is achieved when chopping is enabled. the digital filter decimation rate, and consequently the output data rate, is programmable via the sf word loaded to the filter register. output data rates vary from 5.35 hz (186.77 ms) to 105.03 hz (9.52 ms). the output data rate f f sf adc mod = 24 . the overall frequency response from the digital filter with chop- ping enabled is the product of a sinc 3 and a sinc response. there are sinc 3 notches at integer multiples of 3 f adc and there are sinc notches at odd integer multiples of f adc /2. normal mode rejection is the major function of the digital filter on the ad7708/ ad7718. the normal mode 50 1 hz rejection with an sf word of 82 is typically C100 db. the 60 1 hz rejection with sf = 68 is typically C100 db. simultaneous 50 hz and 60 hz rejec tion of better than 60 db is achieved with an sf of 69 and gi ves a data update rate of 19.8 hz and a channel settling time of 101 ms. the ad7708/ad7718 are factory-calibrated so field calibration will only be required if the adc is operated at temperatures that differ substantially from the factory-calibration conditions.
rev. 0 C38C ad7708/ad7718 nonchop mode of operation ( chop = 1) chopping is enabled and disabled using the chop bit in the mode register. chopping is disabled by loading a 1 to the chop bit in the mode register. with chopping disabled the available output rates vary from 16.06 hz (62.26 ms) to 1365.33 hz (0.73 ms). the range of applicable sf words is from 3 to 255. when the chopping is disabled the channel output data rate is increased by a factor of 3 compared to the situation when chopping is enabled and using the same sf word. when used in multi plexed applications, operation with chop d isabled will offer the best throughput time when cycling through all channels. the draw back with chop disabled is that the drift performance is degraded and calibration is r equired following a gain change or significant temperature change. the output update and filter decimation rate is again controlled by the sf word loaded to the filter register. the digital filter frequency response places sinc 3 notches at integer multiples of the update rate. the output update rate f f sf adc mod = 8 . the ad7708/ad7718 are tar geted at multiplexed applications and therefore operating with chop disabled optimizes channel throughput time. one of the key requirements in these applicat ions is the selection of an sf word so as to obtain the maximum filter rejection at 50 hz and 60 hz while minimizing the channel throughput rate. this is achieved with an sf word of 75 giving 57 db rejection at 50 hz, and 60 db rejection at 60 hz while offering a channel throughput time of 55 ms. using a higher sf word of 151, 50 hz and 60 hz rejection can be maximized at 60 db w ith a channel throughput rate of 110 ms. an sf word of 255 gives maximum rejection at both 50 hz and 60 hz but the channel throughput rate is restricted to 186 ms. table xxi shows a quick comparison of normal mode 50 hz and 60 hz rejection, settling time, and update rate for a selection of sf words with chop both enabled and disabled. programmable gain amplifier the output from the buffer is applied to the input of the program- mable gain amplifier (pga). the pga gain range is programmed via the range bits in the adccon register. the pga has eight ranges. with an external 2.5 v reference applied, and a pga setting of 128, the unipolar analog input range is 0 mv to 20 mv, while the bipolar analog input range is 20 mv. with a pga setting of 1, the unipolar and bipolar input ranges are 2.56 v. when operating with chop mode enabled ( chop = 0), the adc range-matching specification of 2 v (typ) across all ranges means that calibration need only be carried out on a single range and does not have to be repeated when the pga range is changed. this is a significant advantage when compared with similar adcs available on the market. typical matching across ranges is shown in figure 25. here, the adc is configured in fully-differential, bipolar mode with an external 2.5 v reference, while an analog input voltage of just greater than 19 mv is forced on its analog inputs. the adc continuously converts the dc voltage at an update rate of 5.35 hz, i.e., sf = ffhex, 800 conversion results in total are gathered. the first 100 results are gathered with the adc operating with a pga setting of 128. 19.367 100 0 200 400 300 19.371 19.370 19.369 19.368 19.372 adc input voltage mv 500 19.366 19.365 19.364 600 700 800 sample count adc range 20mv 40mv 80mv 160mv 320mv 640mv 1.28v 2.56v figure 25. adc range matching the pga setting is then switched to 64 and 100 more results are gathered, and so on until the last 100 samples are gathered with a pga setting of 1. from figure 25, the variation in the sample mean through each range, i.e., the range matching, is seen to be of the order of 2 v. when operating with chop mode disabled ( chop = 1), new calibration data is needed (but not necessarily a new calibration) to remove offset error when switching chann els. bipolar/unipolar configuration the analog inputs on the ad7708/ad7718 can accept either unipolar or bipolar input voltage ranges. bipolar input ranges does not imply that the part can handle negative voltages with respect to system agnd. signals in pseudo-differential mode are referenced to aincom, while in fully differential mode they are referenced to the negative input of the differential inp ut. for example, if aincom is 2.5 v and the ad7708/ad7718 ain1 analog input is configured for an analog input range of 0 mv to +20 mv, the input voltage range on the ain1 input is 2.5 v to 2.52 v. if aincom is 2.5 v and the ad7708/ad7718 is con- figured for an analog input range of 1.28 v, the analog input range on the ain1 input is 1.22 v to 3.78 v (i.e., 2.5 v 1.28 v). bipolar or unipolar options are chosen by program ming u/ b bit in the adccon register. programming for either unipolar or bipolar operation does not change any of the input signal conditioning; it simply changes the data output coding and the points on the transfer function where calibrations occur. data output coding when the ad7718 is configured for unipolar operation, the out- put coding is natural (straight) binary with a zero differential input voltage resulting in a code of 000 . . . 000, a midscale voltage resulting in a code of 100 . . . 000, and a full-scale input voltage resulting in a code of 111 . . . 111. the output code for any analog input voltage can be represented as follows: code = ( ain gain 2 24 )/(1.024 v re f ) where ain is the analog input voltage, gain is the pga gain, i.e., 1 on the 2.5 v range and 128 on the 20 mv range.
rev. 0 ad7708/ad7718 C39C the output code for any analog input voltage on the ad7708 can be represented as follows: code = ( ain gain 2 16 )/(1.024 v ref ) where ain is the analog input voltage, gain is the pga gain, i.e., 1 on the 2.5 v range and 128 on the 20 mv range. when an adc is configured for bipolar operation, the coding is offset binary with a negative full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 000 . . . 000, a zero differential voltage resulting in a code of 100 . . . 000, and a positive full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 111 . . . 111. the output code from the ad7718 for any analog input voltage can be represented as follows: code = 2 23 [( ain gain/ (1.024 v ref )) + 1] where ain is the analog input voltage, gain is the pga gain, i.e., 1 on the 2.5 v range and 128 on the 20 mv range. the output code from the ad7708 for any analog input voltage can be represented as follows: code = 2 15 [( ain gain /(1.024 v ref )) + 1] where ain is the analog input voltage, gain is the pga gain, i.e., 1 on the 2.5 v range and 128 on the 20 mv range. oscillator circuit the ad7708/ad7718 is intended for use with a 32.768 khz watch crystal or ceramic resonator. a pll internally locks onto a multiple of this frequency to provide a stable 4.194304 mhz clock for the adc. the modulator sample rate is the same as the oscillator frequency. the start-up time associated with 32 khz crystals is typically 300 ms. the ospd bit in the mode register can be used to prevent the oscillator from powering down when the ad7708/ ad7718 is placed in power-down mode. this avoids having to wait 300 ms after exiting power-down to start a conversion at the expense of raising the power-down current. reference input the ad7708/ad7718 has a fully differential reference input capability. when the ad7708/ad7718 is configured in 8-channel mode (chcon = 0) the user has the option of selecting one of two reference options. this allows the user to configure some channels, for example, for ratiometric operation while others can be configured for absolute value measurements. the refsel bit in the mode register allows selection of the required reference. if the refsel bit is cleared , the reference selected is refin1(+) Crefin1(C) for the active channel. if this bit is set , the refer- ence selected is refin2(+) C refin2(C) for the active channel. when the ad7708/ad7718 is configured in 10-channel mode (chcon = 1) the user has only one reference option (refin1). the contents of the chcon bit overrides the refsel bit. if the adc is configured in five fully-differential or 10 pseudo- differential input channel mode, the refsel bit setting is irrelevant as only one reference input is available. the common-mode range for these differential inputs is from agnd to av dd . the reference inputs are unbuffered and therefore excessive r-c source impedances will introduce gain errors. the nominal reference voltage for specified operation, vref, (refin1(+)Crefin1(C) or refin2(+)Crefin2(C)), is 2.5 v, but the ad7708/ad7718 is functional with reference voltages from 1 v to av dd . in applications where the excitation (voltage or current) for the transducer on the analog input also drives the reference voltage for the part, the effect of the low frequency noise in the excitation source will be removed as the application is ratiometric. if the ad7708/ad7718 is used in a nonratiometric application, a low noise reference should be used. recommended reference voltage sources for the ad7708/ ad7718 include the ad780, ref43, and ref192. it should also be noted that the reference inputs provide a high impedance, dynamic load. because the input impedance of each reference input is dynamic, resistor/capacitor combinations on these inputs can cause dc gain errors, depending on the output impedance of the source that is driving the reference inputs. reference voltage sources, like those recommended above (e.g., ad780) will typically have low output impedances and are therefore tolerant of having decoupling capacitors on the refin(+) without introducing gain errors in the system. deriving the reference input voltage across an external resistor will mean that the reference input sees a significant external source impedance. external decoupling on the refin(+) and refin(C) pins w ould not be recommended in this type configuration. reset input the reset input on the ad7708/ad7718 resets all the logic, the d igital filter and the analog modulator while all on-chip registers are reset to their default state. rdy is driven high and the ad7708/ad7718 ignores all communications to any of its registers while the reset input is low. when the reset input returns high the ad7708/ad7718 operates with its default setup conditions and it is necessary to set up all registers and ca rry out a system calibration if required after a reset command. power-down mode loading 0, 0, 0 to the md2, md1, md0 bits in the adc mode register places the adc in device power-down mode. device power-down mode is the default condition for the ad7708/ ad7718 on power-up. the adc retains the contents of all its on-chip registers (including the data register) while in power- down. the device power-down mode does not affect the digital interface, but does affect the status of the rdy pin. writing the ad7708/ad7718 into power-down will reset the rdy line high. placing the part in power-down mode reduces the total current (ai dd + di dd ) to 31 a max when the p art is operated at 5 v and the oscillator allowed to run during pow er-down mode. with the oscillator shut down the total i dd is typically 9 a.
rev. 0 C40C ad7708/ad7718 calibration the ad7708/ad7718 provides four calibration modes that can be programmed via the mode bits in the mode register. one of the major benefits of the ad7708/ad7718 is that it is factory- calibrated with chopping enabled as part of the final test process with the generated coefficients stored within the adc. at power- on, the factory gain calibration coefficients are automatically loaded to the gain calibration registers on the ad7708/ad7718. this gives excellent offset and drift performance and it is envisaged that in the majority of applications the user will not need to perform any field calibrations. also, because factory gain calibration coefficients (generated at 25 c ambient) are automatically present at power-on, an internal full-scale calibration will only be required if the part is being operated at temperatures significantly different from 25 c. when chopping is disabled ( chop =1) the ad7708/ad7718 requires an offset calibration or new calibration coefficients on range changing or when significant temperature changes occur as the signal chain is no longer chopped and offset and drift errors are no longer removed as part of the conversion process. the factory-calibration values for any one channel will be over- written if any one of the four calibration options is initiated. the ad7708/ad7718 offers internal or system calibration facilities. for full calibration to occur, the calibration logic must record the modulator output for two different input c onditions. these are zero-scale and full-scale points. th ese points are derived by performing a conversion on the different input voltages provided to the input of the modulator during calibration. the result of the zero-scale calibration conversion is stored in the offset calibration registers for the appropriate channel. the result of the full-scale calibration conversion is stored in the gain calibration registers. with these readings, the calibration logic can calculate the offset and the gain slope for the input-to-output transfer function of the converter. during an internal zero-scale or full-scale calibra tion, the respective zero input and full-scale input are automatically con nected to the adc input pins internally to the device. a system cali- bration, however, expects the system zero-scale and system full-scale voltages to be applied to the external adc pins before the calibration mode is initiated. in this way external adc errors are taken into account and minimized as a result of system calibration. it should also be noted that to optimize calibration accuracy, all ad7708/ad7718 adc calibrations are carried out automatically at the slowest update rate with chop enabled. when chop mode is disabled calibrations are carried out at the update rate defined by the sf word in the filter register. internally in the ad7708/ad7718, the coefficients are normal ized before being used to scale the words coming out of the digital filter. the offset calibration coefficient is subtracted from the result prior to the multiplication by the gain coefficient. with chopping disabled ad7708/ad7718 adc specifications will only apply after a zero-scale calibration at the operating point of interest. from an operational point of view, a calibration should be treated like another adc conversion. a zero-scale calibration (if required) should always be carried out before a full-scale cali bration. system software should m onitor the rdy bit in the status register to determine end of calibration via a polling sequence or interrupt driven routine. grounding and layout since the analog inputs and reference inputs are differential, most of the voltages in the analog modulator are common-mode voltages. the excellent common-mode rejection of the part will remove common-mode noise on these inputs. the analog and digital supplies to the ad7708/ad7718 are independent and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between the analog and digital sections of the device. the ad7708/ad7718 can be operated with 5 v analog and 3 v digital supplies or vice versa. the digital filter will provide rejection of broadband noise on the power supplies, except at integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency. the digital filter also removes noise from the analog and reference inputs provided these noise sources do not saturate the analog modulator. as a result, the ad7708/ ad7718 is more immune to noise interference than a conventional high-resolution converter. however, because the resolution of the ad7708/ad7718 is so high and the noise levels from the converter so low, care must be taken with regard to grounding and layout. the printed circuit board that houses the adc should be designed so the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. this facilitates the use of ground planes that can be easily separated. a minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best shielding. although the ad7708/ad7718 has separate pins for analog and digital ground, the agnd and dgnd pins are tied together internally via the substrate. therefore, the user must not tie these two pins to separate ground planes unless the ground planes are connected together near the ad7708/ad7718. in systems where the agnd and dgnd are connected some- where else in the system, i.e., the systems power supply, they should not be connected again at the ad7708/ad7718 or a ground loop will result. in these situations it is recommended that ground pins of the ad7708/ad7718 be tied to the agnd plane. in any layout it is implicit that the user keep in mind the flow of currents in the system, ensuring that the paths for all currents are as close as possible to the paths the currents took to reach their destinations. avoid forcing digital currents to flow through the agnd. avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple noise onto the die. the analog ground plane should be allowed to run under the ad7708/ad7718 to prevent noise coupling. the power supply lines to the ad7708/ad7718 should use as wide a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. fast switching signals like clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board and clock signals should never be run near the analog inputs. avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. this will reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. a microstrip technique is by far the best, but is not always possible with a double-sided board. in this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed on the solder side.
rev. 0 ad7708/ad7718 C41C good decoupling is important when using high resolution adcs. all analog supplies should be decoupled with 10 f tantalum in parallel with 0.1 f capacitors to agnd. to achieve the best from these decoupling components, they have to be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. all logic chips should be decoupled with 0.1 f ceramic capacitors to dgnd. in systems where a common supply voltage is used to drive both the av dd and dv dd of the ad7708/ ad7718, it is recommended that the systems av dd supply is used. this supply should have the recommended analog supply decoupling capacitors between the av dd pin of the ad7708/ ad7718 and agnd and the recommended digital supply decoupling capacitor between the dv dd pin of the ad 7708/ ad7718 and dgnd. applications the ad7708/ad7718 provides a low cost, high resolution analog-to-digital function. the ad7708 offers 16-bit resolution while the ad7718 offers 24-bit resolution. the ad7708 and ad7718 are pin and function compatible. the ad7718 allows a direct upgradable path from a 16-bit to a 24-bit system with minimal software and no hardware changes. because the analog- to-digital function is provided by a sigma-delta architecture, it makes the part more immune to noisy environments, thus mak- ing the part ideal for use in sensor measurement and in industrial and process control applications. there are two modes of operation associated with the ad7708/ad7718, chop enabled ( chop = 0) or chop disabled ( chop = 1). with chop enabled the signal chain is chopped and the device is factory-calibrated at final test in this mode. field calibration can be avoided due to the extremely low offset and gain drifts exhibited by the converter in this mode. while operating in this mode gives optimum performance in terms of offset error and offset and gain drift performance, it offers limited throughput when cycling through all channels. with chopping disabled, the signal chain is not chopped and therefore the user needs to ensure that the adc is calibrated on range chan ges and if there is a significant temperature change as the gain and offset drift performance is degraded. the key advantage in using the ad7708/ad7718 with chopping disabled is in channel cycling applications where system through- put is of prime importance. the max conversion rate with chop disabled is 1.36 khz compared with 105 hz with chop enabled. the ad7708/ad7718 also provides a programmable gain ampli- fier, a digital filter, and system calibration options. thus, it provides far more system level functionality than off-the-shelf integrating adcs without the disadvantage of having to sup- ply a high quality integrating capacitor. in addition, using the ad7708/ad7718 in a system allows the system designer to achieve a much higher level of resolution because noise perfor- mance of the ad7708/ad7718 is significantly better than that of integrating adcs. the on-chip pga allows the ad7708/ad7718 to handle an analog input voltage range as low as 10 mv full scale with v ref = 1.25 v. the ad7708/ad7718 can be operated in 8-channel mode with two reference input options or 10-channel mode with one reference input. eight-channel mode allows both ratiometric or absolute measurements to be performed on any channel using the two reference input options. the differential analog inputs of the part allow this analog input range to have an ab solute value anywhere between agnd + 100 mv and av dd C 100 mv. the buffer on the negative analog input can be bypassed allowing the ad7708/ad7718 be operated as eight or ten single- ended input channels. the pga allows the user to connect transducers directly to the input of the ad7708/ad7718. the program- mable gain front end on the ad7708/ad7718 allows the part to handle unipolar analog input ranges from 0 mv to +20 mv to 0 v to +2.5 v and bipolar inputs of 20 mv to 2.5 v. because the part operates from a single supply these bipolar ranges are with respect to a biased-up differential input. data acquisition the ad7708/ad7718, with its different configuration options (five fully-differential input or 10 pseudo-differential input channels with one reference input or four fully-differential input or eight pseudo-differential input channels with two reference inputs), is suited to low bandwidth, high resolution data acquisi- tion systems. in addition, the 3-wire digital interface allows this data acquisition front end to be isolated with just three opto- isolators. the entire system can be operated from a single 3 v or 5 v supply, provided that the input signals to the ad7708/ ad7718s analog inputs are all of positive polarity. 5v ad780 ain6 ain5 ain4 ain3 ain2

acquisition using the ad7708/ad7718 programmable logic controllers the ad7708/ad7718 is also suited to programmable logic controller applications. in such applications, the adc is required to handle signals from a variety of different transducers. the ad7708/ad7718s programmable gain front end allows the part to either handle low level signals directly from a transducer or full-scale signals that have already been conditioned. the faster throughput rate and settling time of the part when operated with chopping disabled makes this the optimum mode of operation in plc applications as an important feature in these applications is loop response time. the configuration of the ad7708/ad7718 in plc applications is similar to that outlined for a data acquisi- tion system and is shown in figure 26. in this application the ad7708/ad7718 is configured in 10-channel mode, ( chcon = 1) and can be operated as 10 pseudo-differential inputs with respect to aincom or as five fully-differential input channels.
rev. 0 C42C ad7708/ad7718 converting single-ended inputs the ad7708/ad7718 generally operates in buffered mode. this places a restriction of agnd + 100 mv to avdd C 100 mv on the absolute and common-mode voltages that can be applied to any input on the ad7708/ad7718. some applications may require the measurement of analog inputs with respect to agnd. to enable the ad7708/ad7718 to be used in these single-ended applications, the buffer on the aincom can be bypassed. the negbuf bit in the mode register controls the operation of the input buffer on the aincom input when a channel is configured for pseudo-differential mode of operation. if cleared , the analog negative input (aincom) is unbuffered, allowing it to be tied to agnd in single-ended input configuration. if this bit is set , the analog negative input (aincom) is buffered, placing a restriction on its common- mode input range. when aincom is unbuffered, signals with a common-mode range from agnd C 30 mv to avdd + 30 mv can be accommodated on this input allowing the end user to connect the aincom input to agnd and perform single- ended m easurements with respect to this input. this unbuffered input path on the aincom provides a dynamic load to the driving source. therefore, resistor/capacitor combinations on this input pin can cause dc gain errors, depending on the output impedance of the source that is driving the aincom input. all analog inputs still operate in buffered mode and their com- mon-mode and absolute input voltage is restricted to a range between agnd + 100 mv and av dd C 100 mv. combined ratiometric and absolute value measurement system the ad7708/ad7718 when operated with chcon = 0 can be configured for operation as four fully-differential analog inputs or eight pseudo-differential analog inputs with two fully-differential reference inputs. having the ability to use either refin1 or refin2 with any channel during the conversion process allows the end user to make both absolute and ratiometric measure- ments as shown in figure 27. in this example a fully-differential analog input (ain1Cain2) is being converted from a bridge trans- ducer in a ratiometric manner using refin1 as the reference input for this channel. ain3 is configured as a pseudo-differential input channel using refin2 to perform an absolute measurement on the potentiometer. the refsel bit in the mode register is used to select which reference is used with the active channel during the conversion process. when the ad7708/ad7718 is configured with chcon = 1, only one reference (refin1) is available. the contents of the chcon bit override the refsel bit. if the adc is configured in five fully-differential or 10 pseudo-differential input channel mode, the refsel bit setting is irrelevant as only refin1 is available. refin1( ) ad7718 refin2(+) refin1(+) aincom ain1 ain3 ain2 refin2( ) gnd excitation voltage = 4v wiper figure 27. absolute and ratiometric measurement system using ad7718
