9 / 12 page AD1876 REV. A –9– corresponding pin. The capacitor is disconnected when SAMPLE is taken LOW and the stored charge is used in the subsequent A/D conversion. In order to limit the demands placed on the external source by this high initial charging current, an internal buffer amplifier is employed between the input and this capaci- tance for a few hundred nanoseconds. During this time the input pin exhibits typically 20 k Ω input resistance, 10 pF input capacitance and ±40 µA bias current. Next, the input is switched directly to the now precharged capacitor and allowed to fully settle, after which SAMPLE is taken LOW. During this time the input sees only a 50 pF capacitor. Once the sample is taken, the input is internally floated so that the external input source sees a very high input resistance and a parasitic input capaci- tance of typically only 2 pF. As a result, the only dominant input characteristic which must be considered is the high current steps which occur when the internal buffers are switched in and out. In most cases, it is desirable to use external op amps to drive the AD1876. For ac applications where low cost and low distortion are desired, the AD711 may be used as shown in Figure 7. An- other option is the 5532/5534 series. Care should always be taken with op amp selection—many available op amps do not meet the necessary low distortion requirements with even mod- erate loading conditions. 1k Ω +12V –12V AD711 0.1µF 2 3 7 6 4 0.1µF AGND AGND SENSE AD1876 10 8 9 VIN VIN 1k Ω 499 Ω Figure 7. TESTING THE AD1876 Analog Devices employs a high performance mixed signal VLSI tester to verify the electrical performance of every AD1876. The test system consists of two main sections, an input signal gen- erator and a digital data and control section. The stimulus section is responsible for providing a high purity, noise-free, band limited tone to the input of the device. This in- put frequency is 1.06 kHz. The test tone is passed through a bandpass filter to remove distortion products and then buffered by a high performance op amp. An external 5.000 V reference voltage is also supplied by this section. The control section of the test equipment provides an external clock and the control signals for calibration, conversion and data transmission. This section of the tester also contains the pro- cessing unit that calculates the actual performance of the device under test. The test procedure consists of the following steps. First, the device is calibrated by its on-board controller. Next, the device under test digitizes the input waveform. This conversion is performed at a 96 kSPS rate and transmits the resulting serial data to the tester. The tester performs an FFT on the test data and determines the actual performance of the device. AC PERFORMANCE Using the aforementioned test methodology, ac performance of the AD1876 is measured. AC parameters, which include S/(N+D), THD, etc., reflect the AD1876’s effect on the spec- tral content of the analog input signal. Figures 11 through 15 provide information on the AD1876’s ac performance under a variety of conditions. As a general rule, averaging the results from several conversions reduces the effects of noise and, therefore, improves such pa- rameters as S/(N+D) and THD. AD1876 performance is opti- mized by operating the device at its maximum sample rate of 100 kSPS and digitally filtering the resulting bit stream to the desired signal bandwidth. This succeeds in distributing noise over a wider frequency range, thus reducing the noise density in the frequency band of interest. This subject is discussed in the following section. OVERSAMPLING AND NOISE FILTERING The Nyquist rate for a converter is defined as one-half its sam- pling rate. This is established by the Nyquist theorem, which requires that a signal be sampled at a rate corresponding to at least twice its widest bandwidth of interest in order to preserve the information content. Oversampling is a conversion tech- nique in which the sampling frequency is an integral (2 or more) multiple of twice the frequency bandwidth of interest. In audio applications, the AD1876 can operate at a 2 × oversampling rate. In quantized systems, the information content of the analog in- put is represented in the frequency spectrum from dc to the Nyquist rate of the converter. Within this same spectrum are higher frequency aliased noise components. Antialias, or low- pass, filters are used at the input to the ADC to remove the por- tion of these noise components attributed to high frequency analog input noise. However, wideband noise contributed by the AD1876 will not be reduced by the antialias filter. The AD1876 contributed noise is evenly distributed from dc to the Nyquist rate, and this fact can be used to minimize its overall effect. The AD1876 contributed noise effects can be reduced by oversampling—sampling at a rate higher than defined by the Nyquist theorem. This spreads the noise energy over a distribu- tion of frequencies wider than the frequency band of interest, and by judicious selection of a digital filter, noise frequencies outside the bandwidth of interest may be eliminated. The pro- cess of quantization inherently produces noise, known as quanti- zation noise. The magnitude of this noise is a function of the resolution of the converter, and manifests itself as a limit to the theoretical signal-to-noise ratio achievable. This limit is de- scribed by S/(N+D) = (6.02 n + 1.76 + 10 log FS/2 Fa) dB, where n is the resolution of the converter in bits, FS is the sam- pling frequency, and Fa is the signal bandwidth of interest. For audio bandwidth applications, the AD1876 is capable of operat- ing at a 2 × oversample rate (96 kSPS), which typically produces an improvement in S/(N+D) of 3 dB compared with operating at the Nyquist conversion rate of 48 kSPS. Oversampling has another advantage as well; the demands on the antialias filter are |
