GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7703 is a 20-bit ADC that uses a S-D conversion tech-
nique. The analog input is continuously sampled by an analog
modulator whose mean output duty cycle is proportional to the
input signal. The modulator output is processed by an on-chip
digital filter with a six-pole Gaussian response, which updates the
output data register with 16-bit binary words at word rates up to
4 kHz. The sampling rate, filter corner frequency, and output
word rate are set by a master clock input that may be supplied
externally, or by a crystal controlled on-chip clock oscillator.
The inherent linearity of the ADC is excellent and endpoint accu-
racy is ensured by self-calibration of zero and full scale, which
may be initiated at any time. The self-calibration scheme can
also be extended to null system offset and gain errors in the input
channel.
The output data is accessed through a flexible serial port, which
has an asynchronous mode compatible with UARTs and two
synchronous modes suitable for interfacing to shift registers or
the serial ports of industry-standard microcontrollers.
CMOS construction ensures low power dissipation, and a power-
down mode reduces the idle power consumption to only 10 µW.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD7703 offers 20-bit resolution coupled with outstanding
0.0003% accuracy.
2. No missing codes ensures true, usable, 20-bit dynamic range,
removing the need for programmable gain and level-setting
circuitry.
3. The effects of temperature drift are eliminated by on-chip
self-calibration, which removes zero and gain error. External
circuits can also be included in the calibration loop to remove
system offsets and gain errors.
4. Flexible synchronous/asynchronous interface allows the
AD7703 to interface directly to the serial ports of industry-
standard microcontrollers and DSP processors.
5. Low operating power consumption and an ultralow power
standby mode make the AD7703 ideal for loop-powered
remote sensing applications, or battery-powered portable
instruments.
