HI5812
CMOS 20 Microsecond, 12-Bit, Sampling
A/D Converter with Internal Track and
Hold
The HI5812 is a fast, low power, 12 -bit, successive
approximation analog-to-digi tal converter. It can operate
from a single 3V to 6V supply and typically draws just 1.9mA
when operating at 5V. The HI5812 features a built-i n track
and hold. The conversion time is as low as 20µs with a 5V
supply.
The twelve data outputs feature full high speed CMOS
three-state bus driver capability, and are latched and held
through a full conversion cycle. The output is user
selectable, i.e., 12-bit, 8-bit (MSBs), and/or 4-bit (LSBs). A
data ready flag, and conversion-start input complete the
digital interface.
An internal clock is provided and is available as an output.
The clock may also be over-driven by an external source.

Theory of Operation
HI5812 is a CMOS 12-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter that
uses capacitor-charge balancing to successive ly approximate
the analog input. A binarily weighted capacitor network forms
the A/D heart of the device. See the block diagram for the
HI5812.
The capacitor network has a common node which is
connected to a comparator . The second terminal of each
capacitor is individuall y switchable to the input, VREF+ or
VREF - .
During the first three clock periods of a conversion cycle, the
switchable end of every capacitor is connected to the input
and the comparator is being auto-balanced at the capacitor
common node.
During the fourth period, all capacitors are disconnected
from the input; the one representing the MSB (D11) is
connected to the VREF+ terminal; and the remaining
capacitors to VREF -. The capacitor-common node, after the
charges balance out, will indicate whether the input was
above 1/2 of (VREF+ - VREF -). At the end of the fourth
period, the comparator output is stored and the MSB
capacitor is either left connected to VREF+ (if the compar ator
was high) or returned to VREF -. This allows the next
comparison to be at either 3/4 or 1/4 of (VREF+ - VREF -).
At the end of periods 5 through 14, capacitors representing
D10 through D1 are tested, the result stored, and each
capacitor either left at VREF+ or at VREF -.
At the end of the 15th period, when the LSB (D0) capacitor is
tested, (D0) and all the previous results are shifted to the
output registers and drivers. The capacitors are reconnected
to the input, the comparator returns to the balance state, and
the data-ready output goes active. The conversion cycle is
now complete.
Analog Input
The analog input pin is a predomi nately capacitive load that
changes between the track and hold periods of the
conversion cycle. During hold, clock period 4 through 15, the
input loading is leakage and stray capacitance, typically less
than 5µA and 20pF.
At the start of input tracking, clock period 1, some charge is
dumped back to the input pin. The input source must have
low enough impedance to dissipate the current spike by the
end of the tracking period as shown in Figure 18. The
amount of charge is dependent on supply and input
voltages. The average current is also proportional to clock
frequency.
As long as these current spikes settle completely by end of
the signal acquisition period, co nverter accuracy will be
preserved. The analog input is tracked for 3 clock cycles.
With an external clock of 750kHz the track period is 4µs.

FIGURE 18. TYPICAL ANALOG INPUT CURRENT
HI5812
11
A simplified analog input model is presented in Figure 19.
During tracking, the A/D input (V IN) typically appears as a
380pF capacitor being charged th rough a 420 internal
switch resistance. The time constant is 160ns. To charge this
capacitor from an external “zero ” source to 0.5 LSB
(1/8192), the charging time must be at least 9 time constants
or 1.4µs. The maximum source impedan ce (RSOURCE Max )
for a 4µs acquisition time settling to within 0.5LSB is 750.
If the clock frequency was slower, or the converter was not
restarted immediately (causing a longer sample time), a
higher source impedance could be tolera ted.
Reference Input
The reference input VREF+ should be driven from a low
impedance source and be well decoupled.
As shown in Figure 20, current spikes are generated on the
reference pin during each bit test of the succe s sive
approximation part of the conversion cycle as the charge-
balancing capacitors are switched between VREF - and
VREF+ (clock periods 5 - 14). These current spikes must
settle completely during each bit test of the conversion to not
degrade the accuracy of the converter. Therefore VREF+
and VREF - should be well bypassed. Reference input VREF -
is normally connected directly to the analog ground plane. If
VREF - is biased for nulling the conve rters offset it must be
stable during the conversion cycle.
The HI5812 is specified with a 4.608V reference, however, it
will operate with a reference down to 3V having a slight
degradation in performance. A typical graph of accuracy vs
reference voltage is presented.
Full Scale and Offset Adjustment
In many applications the accuracy of the HI5812 would be
sufficient without any adjustments. In applications where
accuracy is of utmost importance full scale and offset errors
may be adjusted to zero.
The VREF+ and VREF - pins reference the two ends of the
analog input range and may be used for offset and full scale
adjustments. In a typical system the VREF - might be
returned to a clean ground, and the offset adjustmen t done
on an input amplifier. VREF+ would then be adjusted to null
out the full scale error. When this is not possib le, the VREF -
input can be adjusted to null the offset error, however,
VREF - must be well decoupled.
Full scale and offset error can also be adjusted to zero in the
signal conditioning amplifi er driving the analog input (VIN).
Control Signal
The HI5812 may be synchronized from an external source
by using the STRT (Start Conversion) input to initiate
conversion, or if STRT is tied low, may be allowed to free
run. Each conversion cycle takes 15 clock periods.
The input is tracked from clock period 1 through period 3,
then disconnected as the successive approximation takes
place. After the start of the next period 1 (specified by tD
data), the output is updated.
The DRDY (Data Ready) status output goes high (specified
by tD1DRDY) after the start of clock period 1, and returns
low (specified by tD2DRDY) after the start of clock period 2.
The 12 data bits are available in parallel on three-state bus
driver outputs. When low, the OEM input enables the most
significant byte (D4 through D11) while the OEL input
enables the four least significant bits (D0 - D3). tEN and tDIS
specify the output enable and disab le times.
If the output data is to be latched externally, either the
trailing edge of data ready or the next falling edge of the
clock after data ready goes high can be used.
When STRT input is used to initiate conversions, operation
is slightly different depending on whether an internal or
external clock is used.
Figure 3 illustrates operation with an interna l clock. If the
STRT signal is removed (at least tRSTRT) before clock
period 1, and is not reapplied during that period, the clock
will shut off after entering period 2. The input will continue to
track and the DRDY output will remain high during this time.
A low signal applied to STRT (at least tWSTRT wide) can
now initiate a new conversion. The STRT signal (after a
delay of (tDSTRT)) causes the clock to restart.

Depending on how long the clock was shut off, the low
portion of clock period 2 may be longer than during the
remaining cycles.
The input will continue to track until the end of period 3, the
same as when free running.
Figure 2 illustrates the same operation as above but with an
external clock. If STRT is removed (at least tRSTRT) before
clock period 2, a low signal applied to STRT will drop the
DRDY flag as before, and with the first positive-going clock
edge that meets the (tSUSTRT) setup time, the converter will
continue with clock period 3.
Clock
The HI5812 can operate either from its internal clock or from
one externally supplied. The CLK pin functions either as the
clock output or input. All converter functions are
synchronized with the rising edge of the clock signal.
Figure 21 shows the configuration of the internal clock. The
clock output drive is low power: if used as an output, it
should not have more than 1 CMOS gate load applie d, and
stray wiring capacitance should be kept to a minimum.
The internal clock will shut down if the A/D is not restarted
after a conversion. The clock could also be shut down with
an open collector driver applied to the CLK pin. This should
only be done during the sample portion (th e first three clock
periods) of a conversion cycle, and might be useful for using
the device as a digital sample and hold.
If an external clock is supplied to the CLK pin, it must have
sufficient drive to overcome the internal clock source. The
external clock can be shut off, but again, only during the
sample portion of a conversion cycle. At other times, it must
be above the minimum frequency shown in the
specifications. In the above two cases, a further restriction
applies in that the clock should not be shut off during the
third sample period for more than 1ms. This might cause an
internal charge-pump voltage to decay.
If the internal or external clock was shut off during the
conversion time (clock cycles 4 through 15) of the A/D, the
output might be invalid due to balancing capacitor droop.
An external clock must also meet the minimum tLOW and
tHIGH times shown in the specifications. A violation may
cause an internal miscount and invalidate the results.
Power Supplies and Grounding
VDD and VSS are the digital supply pins: they power all
internal logic and the output drivers. Because the output
drivers can cause fast current spikes in the VDD and VSS
lines, VSS should have a low impedance path to digital
ground and VDD should be well bypassed.
Except for VAA+, which is a substrate connection to VDD , all
pins have protection diodes connected to VDD and VSS .
Input transients above VDD or below VSS will get steered to
the digital supplies.
The VAA+ and VAA- terminals supply the charg e-balancing
comparator only. Because the comparator is autoba lanced
between conversions, it has good low-frequency supply
rejection. It does not reject well at high frequencies however;
VAA- should be returned to a clean analog ground and VAA+
should be RC decoupled from the digital supply as shown in
Figure 22.
There is approximately 50 of substrate impedance
between VDD and VAA+. This can be used, for example , as
part of a low-pass RC filter to attenuate switching supply
noise. A 10µF capacitor from VAA+ to ground would
attenuate 30kHz noise by approximately 40dB. Note that
back-to-back diodes should be placed from VDD to VAA+ to
handle supply to capacitor turn-on or turn-off current spikes.
Dynamic Performance
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) techniques are used to
evaluate the dynamic performance of the A/D. A low
distortion sine wave is applied to the input of the A/D
converter. The input is sampled by the A/D and its output
stored in RAM. The data is than transformed into the
frequency domain with a 4096 point FFT and analyzed to
evaluate the converters dynamic performance such as SNR
and THD. See typical performance characteristics.
Signal-To-Noise Ratio
The signal to noise ratio (SNR) is the measured RMS signal
to RMS sum of noise at a specified input and sampling
frequency. The noise is the RMS sum of all except the
fundamental and the first five harmonic signals. The SNR is
dependent on the number of quantization levels used in the
converter. The theoretical SNR for an N-bit converter with no
differential or integral linearity error is: SNR = (6.02N + 1.76)
dB. For an ideal 12-bit converter the SNR is 74dB.
Differential and integral linearity errors will deg rade SNR.
Signal-To-Noise + Distortion Ratio
SINAD is the measured RMS signal to RMS sum of noise
plus harmonic power and is expressed by the following:

Effective Number of Bits
The effective number of bits (ENOB) is derived from the
SINAD data;
Total Harmonic Distortion
The total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of the second through sixth harmonic components to
the fundamental RMS signal for a sp ecified input and
sampling frequency.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is the ratio of the
fundamental RMS amplitude to the RMS amplitude of the
next largest spur or spectral component. If the harmonics
are buried in the noise floor it is the largest peak.
