Reference Voltage Filtering Adjustment for<br />

Use in DC Applications<br />

Reference configuration in <strong>AD7760</strong> Datasheet (Figure 45)<br />

is optimised for AC operation<br />

For DC applications, removing the 100Ω resis<strong>to</strong>r in the<br />

reference filter network is advised<br />

• Current drawn from the reference has a slight code dependence<br />

noticeable with fixed DC input voltages<br />

• Current drawn is higher for ADC inputs which result in codes near<br />

FS and near 0 than current drawn for mid-scale codes<br />

• Why? Ohms law! Voltage drop across resis<strong>to</strong>r due <strong>to</strong> increased<br />

current reduces reference voltage at pin of <strong>AD7760</strong> causing code<br />

variation<br />

• The variation in the output code is more pronounced at high clock<br />

speeds


On-Board Differential Amplifier <strong>Tips</strong><br />

Configure Amplifier as 1 st Order Anti-alias filter<br />

Layout<br />

• Place all components on the same PCB layer<br />

• Symmetrical layout of Components<br />

Component Matching<br />

• 1 st order filter elements must be matched (R IN<br />

, R FB<br />

, C FB<br />

, R M<br />

)<br />

• Reduces dis<strong>to</strong>rtion of signal output by the Amplifier<br />

• Tolerance of 0.1% or better is required for these components<br />

Particular care should be taken in matching the resis<strong>to</strong>r values (CMRR)


Supply Decoupling<br />

Extremely important <strong>to</strong> the performance of the AD776x parts<br />

All supplies must be connected <strong>to</strong> the relevant pin through a<br />

ferrite bead (See circled red in Diagram)<br />

• Used <strong>to</strong> dampen “ringing” in the supply voltages<br />

• 0603 Size (Wurth Electronics 74279266)<br />

• 0805 Size (Meggitt Sigma BMB-2A-0600R-S2)<br />

Decouple all supplies through capaci<strong>to</strong>r <strong>to</strong> correct ground pin<br />

• Use 100nF, 0603 case size, X7R dielectric capaci<strong>to</strong>r<br />

Supply Decoupling (contd..)<br />

Left Hand Side & Reference supplies<br />

are particularly sensitive <strong>to</strong> ringing<br />

• Use Ferrite Beads in both supply lines<br />

Left Hand Side supply (Pins 14 & 27)<br />

• Decouple Pin 14 <strong>to</strong> gnd using 100nF<br />

cap also connect <strong>to</strong> Pin 27 through a<br />

15nH induc<strong>to</strong>r<br />

• Suppresses THD issues<br />

• No 100nF decoupling capaci<strong>to</strong>r needed<br />

Clock Considerations<br />

MCLK signal must be buffered before input <strong>to</strong> AD776x<br />

• Degradation in performance of <strong>AD7760</strong> when applying MCLK<br />

signal directly from its source <strong>to</strong> the MCLK pin (Pin 3, <strong>AD7760</strong>)<br />

• Buffering the MCLK signal improved the quality of the edges<br />

<strong>Aid</strong>s performance of internal clock divider<br />

• Recommended buffer - NC7S08 (Fairchild Semiconduc<strong>to</strong>r)<br />

2 I/P AND gate, Connect MCLK signal <strong>to</strong> both inputs<br />

Minimise trace length from buffer output <strong>to</strong> MCLK pin<br />

MCLK Input Amplitude<br />

• <strong>Optimum</strong> performance of AD776x is achieved using a 5V MCLK<br />

Clock edges are fastest with 5V MCLK implementation


Optimising AD776x External Circuitry for<br />

Low Power Mode<br />

<br />

<br />

Datasheet Circuitry is<br />

optimised for Normal Mode<br />

Modifications:<br />

1. Modify resistance value<br />

between Diff Amp &<br />

Modula<strong>to</strong>r I/Ps<br />

Rm value should be increased<br />

from 18Ω <strong>to</strong> 33Ω for Low power<br />

mode<br />

Resolves settling issues seen in<br />

Low power mode<br />

2. Modify Reference Voltage<br />

circuitry<br />

Replace 10Ω resis<strong>to</strong>r with 22nH<br />

induc<strong>to</strong>r for Low Power mode<br />
