GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8401 is a complete data acquisition and control system
containing ADC, DAC, 4-channel MUX, and internal voltage
reference. Built using CBCMOS, this monolithic circuit offers
the user a complete system with very high package density and
reliability.
The converter is a successive approximation ADC with T/H,
and is capable of operating with conversion times as short as
2 µs. Analog input bandwidth is 200 kHz, and DAC output volt-
age settling time is less than 4 µs, making the AD8401 capable
of controlling servo loops with speed and precision.
The 8-bit data interface provides both read and write operation
for parallel bus interfaces to microcontrollers and DSP proces-
sors. An external 5 MHz clock sets the 2 µs conversion rate.
Slower clocks reduce the conversion time and the internal power
dissipation. The standard control lines: Reset, Busy, Interrupt,
Read and Write complete the handshaking signals for micro-
processor communication. A start trigger ST input allows pre-
cise sampling intervals in synchronous sampling applications.
The input multiplexer addressing is designed for direct interface
to the AD899 hard-disk drive, read-channel device with no extra
hardware or special software. Analog input range levels are like-
wise compatible with the AD899.
The AD8401 is designed to operate from a single +5 volt sup-
ply, which will give an ADC input range of 0 V to 3.0 V, and
DAC output range of 0 V to 2.5 V.
The AD8401 is offered in the SOIC-28 surface mount package,
and is guaranteed to operate over the extended industrial tem-
perature range of –40°C to +85°C.
