GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD4002/AD4006/AD4010 are low noise, low power, high
speed, 18-bit, precision successive approximation register (SAR)
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The AD4002, AD4006,
and AD4010 offer 2 MSPS, 1 MSPS, and 500 kSPS throughputs,
respectively. They incorporate ease of use features that reduce
signal chain power consumption, reduce signal chain complexity,
and enable higher channel density. The high-Z mode, coupled with
a long acquisition phase, eliminates the need for a dedicated high
power, high speed ADC driver, thus broadening the range of
low power precision amplifiers that can drive these ADCs directly
while still achieving optimum performance. The input span com-
pression feature enables the ADC driver amplifier and the ADC
to operate off common supply rails without the need for a negative
supply while preserving the full ADC code range. The low serial
peripheral interface (SPI) clock rate requirement reduces the digital
input/output power consumption, broadens processor options,
and simplifies the task of sending data across digital isolation.
Operating from a 1.8 V supply, the AD4002/AD4006/AD4010
sample an analog input (IN+) from 0 V to VREF with respect to a
ground sense (IN−) with VREF ranging from 2.4 V to 5.1 V. The
AD4002 consumes only 14 mW at 2 MSPS with a minimum SCK
rate of 75 MHz in turbo mode; the AD4006 consumes only 7 mW
at 1 MSPS; and the AD4010 consumes only 3.5 mW at 500 kSPS.
The AD4002/AD4006/AD4010 all achieve ±3.2 LSB integral
nonlinearity error (INL) maximum, no missing codes at 18 bits,
and 95 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for an input frequency (fIN)
of 1 kHz. The reference voltage is applied externally and can be
set independently of the supply voltage.
The SPI-compatible versatile serial interface features seven different
modes including the ability, using the SDI input, to daisy-chain
several ADCs on a single 3-wire bus, and provides an optional
busy indicator. The AD4002/AD4006/AD4010 are compatible
with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3 V, and 5 V logic, using the separate VIO supply.
The AD4002/AD4006 are available in a 10-lead MSOP and
10-lead LFCSP, and the AD4010 is available in a 10-lead LFCSP,
with operation specified from −40°C to +125°C. The devices are
pin compatible with the 18-bit, 2 MSPS AD4003 (see Table 8).
