The external circuit described in Table 18-16 is a low-pass filter. A user
interested in measuring an ac component of the external signal must
take the characteristics of this filter into account.
18.11.7.2 Error Resulting from Leakage
A series resistor limits the current to a pin therefore, input leakage acting
through a large source impedance can degrade A/D accuracy. The
maximum input leakage current is specified in Section 22. Electrical
Specifications. Input leakage is greater at higher operating
temperatures. In the temperature range from 125°C to 50°C, the leakage
current is halved for every 8°C to 12°C reduction in temperature.
Assuming V_RH–V_RL = 5.12 V, 1 count (with 10-bit resolution)
corresponds to 5 mV of input voltage. A typical input leakage of 200 nA
acting through 10 kΩ of external series resistance results in an error of
0.4 count (2.0 mV). If the source impedance is 100 kΩ and a typical
leakage of 100 nA is present, an error of 2 counts (10 mV) is introduced.
In addition to internal junction leakage, external leakage (for example, if
external clamping diodes are used) and charge sharing effects with
internal capacitors also contribute to the total leakage current.
Table 18-17 illustrates the effect of different levels of total leakage on
accuracy for different values of source impedance. The error is listed in
terms of 10-bit counts.
CAUTION: Leakage from the part below 200 nA is obtainable only within a limited
temperature range.
