10 Applications and Implementation
10.1 Application Information
The MUX36xxx family offers outstanding input/output leakage currents and ultralow charge injection. These
devices operate up to 36 V, and offer true rail-to-rail input and output. The on-capacitance of the MUX36xxx is
very low. These features makes the MUX36xxx a precision, robust, high-performance analog multiplexer for high-
voltage, industrial applications.
10.2 Typical Application
Figure 42 shows a 16-bit, differential, 4-channel, multiplexed, data-acquisition system. This example is typical in
industrial applications that require low distortion and a high-voltage differential input. The circuit uses the
ADS8864, a 16-bit, 400-kSPS successive-approximation-resistor (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC), along
with a precision, high-voltage, signal-conditioning front end, and a 4-channel differential mux. This TI Precision
Design details the process for optimizing the precision, high-voltage, front-end drive circuit using the MUX36D04,
OPA192 and OPA140 to achieve excellent dynamic performance and linearity with the ADS8864.

Distortion
10.2.1 Design Requirements
The primary objective is to design a ±20 V, differential, 4-channel, multiplexed, data-acquisition system with
lowest distortion using the 16-bit ADS8864 at a throughput of 400 kSPS for a 10-kHz, full-scale, pure, sine-wave
input. The design requirements for this block design are:
• System supply voltage: ±15 V
• ADC supply voltage: 3.3 V
• ADC sampling rate: 400 kSPS
• ADC reference voltage (REFP): 4.096 V
• System input signal: A high-voltage differential input signal with a peak amplitude of 20 V and frequency
(fIN) of 10 kHz are applied to each differential input of the mux.
10.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The purpose of this precision design is to design an optimal, high-voltage, multiplexed, data-acquisition system
for highest system linearity and fast settling. The overall system block diagram is illustrated in Figure 42. The
circuit is a multichannel, data-acquisition signal chain consisting of an input low-pass filter, mux, mux output
buffer, attenuating SAR ADC driver, and the reference driver. The architecture allows fast sampling of multiple
channels using a single ADC, providing a low-cost solution. This design systematically approaches each analog
circuit block to achieve a 16-bit settling for a full-scale input stage voltage and linearity for a 10-kHz sinusoidal
input signal at each input channel. Detailed design considerations and component selection procedure can be
found in the TI Precision Design TIPD151, 16-Bit, 400-kSPS, 4-Channel Multiplexed Data-Acquisition System for
High-Voltage Inputs with Lowest Distortion.
