During the acquisition, the analog input (AIN) charges
capacitor CDAC. The acquisition interval ends on the
falling edge of the sixth clock cycle (Figure 6). At this
instant, the T/H switches open. The retained charge on
CDAC represents a sample of the input.
In hold mode, the capacitive digital-to-analog converter
(DAC) adjusts during the remainder of the conversion
cycle to restore node ZERO to zero within the limits of
16-bit resolution. At the end of the conversion, force CS
high and then low to reset the input side of the CDAC
switches back to AIN, and charge CDAC to the input
signal again.
The time required for the T/H to acquire an input sig-
nal is a function of how quickly its input capacitance
is charged. If the input signal’s source impedance is
high, the acquisition time lengthens and more time must
be allowed between conversions. The acquisition time
(t_ACQ) is the maximum time the device takes to acquire
the signal. Use the following formula to calculate acquisi-
tion time:
t_ACQ = 13(R_S + R_IN) x 35pF
where R_IN = 800I, R_S = the input signal’s source
impedance, and t_ACQ is never less than 1.1Fs. A source
impedance less than 1kI does not significantly affect the
ADC’s performance.
To improve the input signal bandwidth under AC condi-
tions, drive AIN with a wideband buffer (> 4MHz) that
can drive the ADC’s input capacitance and settle quickly.
Input Bandwidth
The ADC’s input tracking circuitry has a 4MHz small-
signal bandwidth, so it is possible to digitize high-speed
transient events and measure periodic signals with
bandwidths exceeding the ADC’s sampling rate by using
undersampling techniques. To avoid aliasing of unwant-
ed high-frequency signals into the frequency band of
interest, use anti-alias filtering.
Analog Input Protection
Internal protection diodes, which clamp the analog input
to AVDD or AGND, allow the input to swing from V_AGND
- 0.3V to V_AVDD + 0.3V, without damaging the device.
If the analog input exceeds 300mV beyond the supplies,
limit the input current to 10mA.
Digital Interface
Initialization After Power-Up and Starting a
Conversion
The digital interface consists of two inputs, SCLK and
CS, and one output, DOUT. A logic-high on CS places
the MAX11100 in shutdown (AutoShutdown) and places
DOUT in a high-impedance state. A logic-low on CS
places the MAX11100 in the fully powered mode.
To start a conversion, pull CS low. A falling edge on CS
initiates an acquisition. SCLK drives the A/D conversion
and shifts out the conversion results (MSB first) at DOUT.
Timing and Control
Conversion-start and data-read operations are con-
trolled by the CS and SCLK digital inputs (Figure 6
and Figure 7). Ensure that the duty cycle on SCLK is
between 40% and 60% at 4.8MHz (the maximum clock
frequency). For lower clock frequencies, ensure that
the minimum high and low times are at least 65ns.
Conversions with SCLK rates less than 100kHz can
result in reduced accuracy due to leakage.
Note: Coupling between SCLK and the analog inputs
(AIN and REF) may result in an offset.
