Figure 13. Example of Servoing the Analog Input with VCMO
In Figure 13, RADJ-and RADJ+ are used to adjust the differential offset that can be measured at the ADC inputs
VIN+ / VIN-with LMH6555's input terminated to ground as shown but not driven and with no RADJ resistors applied.
An unadjusted positive offset with reference to VIN-greater than |15mV| should be reduced with a resistor in the
RADJ-position. Likewise, an unadjusted negative offset with reference to VIN-greater than |15mV| should be
reduced with a resistor in the RADJ+ position. Table 19 gives suggested RADJ-and RADJ+ values for various
unadjusted differential offsets to bring the VIN+ / VIN-offset back to within |15mV|.

2.2.2 Out Of Range (OR) Indication
When the conversion result is clipped the Out of Range output is activated such that OR+ goes high and OR-
goes low. This output is active as long as accurate data on either or both of the buses would be outside the
range of 00h to FFh. Note that when the device is programmed to provide a second DCLK output, the OR
signals become DCLK2. Refer to REGISTER DESCRIPTION
2.2.3 Full-Scale Input Range
As with all A/D Converters, the input range is determined by the value of the ADC's reference voltage. The
reference voltage of the ADC08DL500 is derived from an internal band-gap reference. The FSR pin controls the
effective reference voltage of the ADC08DL500 such that the differential full-scale input range at the analog
inputs is a normal amplitude with the FSR pin high, or a reduced amplitude with FSR pin low as defined by the
specification VIN in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. Best SNR is obtained with FSR high, but better
distortion and SFDR are obtained with the FSR pin low. The LMH6555 of is Figure 13 suitable for any Full Scale
Range.
2.3 THE CLOCK INPUTS
The ADC08DL500 has differential LVDS clock inputs, CLK+ and CLK−, which must be driven with an a.c.
coupled, differential clock signal. Although the ADC08DL500 is tested and its performance is guaranteed with a
differential 1 GHz clock, it typically will function well with input clock frequencies indicated in the Converter
Electrical Characteristics. The clock inputs are internally terminated and biased. The input clock signal must be
capacitively coupled to the clock pins as indicated in Figure 14.
