PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD671 is a high speed monolithic 12-bit A/D converter
offering conversion rates of up to 2 MHz (500 ns conversion
time). The combination of a merged high speed bipolar/CMOS
process and a novel architecture results in a combination of
speed and power consumption far superior to previously avail-
able hybrid implementations. Additionally, the greater reliability
of monolithic construction offers improved system reliability
and lower costs than hybrid designs.
The AD671 uses a subranging flash conversion technique, with
digital error correction for possible errors introduced in the first
part of the conversion cycle. An on-chip timing generator pro-
vides strobe pulses for each of the four internal flash cycles and
assures adequate settling time for the interflash residue ampli-
fier. A single ENCODE pulse is used to control the converter.
The performance of the AD671 is made possible by using high
speed, low noise bipolar circuitry in the linear sections and low
power CMOS for the logic sections. Analog Devices' ABCMOS-1
process provides both high speed bipolar and 2-micron CMOS
devices on a single chip. Laser trimmed thin-film resistors are
used to provide accuracy and temperature stability.
The AD671 is available in two conversion speeds and perfor-
mance grades. The AD671J and K grades are specified for op-
eration over the 0
C to +70
C temperature range. The AD671S
grades are specified for operation over the 55
C to +125
C
temperature range. All grades are available in a 0.300 inch wide
24-pin ceramic DIP. The J and K grades are also available in a
24-pin plastic DIP.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD671 offers a single chip 2 MHz analog-to-digital
conversion function in a space saving 24-pin DIP.
2. Input signal ranges are 0 V to +5 V and 0 V to +10 V unipo-
lar, and 5 V to +5 V bipolar, selected by pin strapping. In-
put resistance is 1.5 k
. Power supplies are +5 V and 5 V,
and typical power consumption is less than 500 mW.
3. The external +5 V reference can be chosen to suit the dc ac-
curacy and temperature drift requirements of the application.
4. Output data is available in unipolar, bipolar offset or bipolar
twos complement binary format.
5. An OUT OF RANGE output bit indicates when the input
signal is beyond the AD671's input range.
6. The AD671 is available in versions compliant with the MIL-
STD-883. Refer to the Analog Devices Military Products
Databook or current AD671/883B data sheet for detailed
specifications.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
INTEGRAL NONLINEARITY (INL)
Integral nonlinearity refers to the deviation of each individual
code from a line drawn from "zero" through "full scale." The
point used as "zero" occurs 1/2 LSB (1.22 mV for a 10 V span)
before the first code transition (all zeros to only the LSB on).
"Full scale" is defined as a level 1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code
transition (to all ones). The deviation is measured from the low
side transition of each particular code to the true straight line.
DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY (DNL, NO MISSING
CODES)
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Thus every
code must have a finite width. Guaranteed no missing codes to
10-bit resolution indicates that all 1024 codes represented by
Bits 110 must be present over all operating ranges. Guaranteed
no missing codes to 11- or 12-bit resolution indicates that all
2048 and 4096 codes, respectively, must be present over all op-
erating ranges.
UNIPOLAR OFFSET
The first transition should occur at a level 1/2 LSB above analog
common. Unipolar offset is defined as the deviation of the ac-
tual from that point. This offset can be adjusted as discussed
later. The unipolar offset temperature coefficient specifies the
maximum change of the transition point over temperature, with
or without external adjustments.
BIPOLAR ZERO
In the bipolar mode the major carry transition (0111 1111 1111
to 1000 0000 0000) should occur for an analog value 1/2 LSB
below analog common. The bipolar offset error and temperature
coefficient specify the initial deviation and maximum change in
the error over temperature.
GAIN ERROR
The last transition (from 1111 1111 1110 to 1111 1111 1111)
should occur for an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal
full scale (9.9963 volts for 10.000 volts full scale). The gain er-
ror is the deviation of the actual level at the last transition from
the ideal level. The gain error can be adjusted to zero as shown
in Figures 7, 8 and 9.
TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENTS
The temperature coefficients for unipolar offset, bipolar zero
and gain error specify the maximum change from the initial
(+25
C) value to the value at T
MIN
or T
MAX
.
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION
The only effect of power supply error on the performance of the
device will be a small change in gain. The specifications show
the maximum full-scale change from the initial value with the
supplies at the various limits.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D) RATIO
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components, including har-
monics but excluding dc. The value for S/N+D is expressed in
decibels.
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB)
ENOB is calculated from the expression SNR = 6.02N +
1.8 dB, where N is equal to the effective number of bits.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic com-
ponents to the rms value of the measured input signal and is ex-
pressed as a percentage or in decibels.
PEAK SPURIOUS OR PEAK HARMONIC COMPONENT
The peak spurious or peak harmonic component is the largest
spectral component excluding the input signal and dc. This
value is expressed in decibels relative to the rms value of a full-
scale input signal.
Theory of Operation
The AD671 uses a successive subranging architecture. The ana-
log to digital conversion takes place in four independent steps or
flashes. The analog input signal is subranged to an intermediate
residue voltage for the final 12-bit result by utilizing multiple
flashes with subtraction DACs (see the AD671 functional block
diagram).
The AD671 can be configured to operate with unipolar (0 V to
+5 V, 0 V to +10 V) or bipolar (
5 V) inputs by connecting
AIN (Pin 20), REFIN (Pin 19) and BPO/UPO (Pin 21) as
shown in Figure 2.
The AD671 conversion cycle begins by simply providing an ac-
tive HIGH pulse on the ENCODE pin (Pin 16). The rising
edge of the ENCODE pulse starts the conversion. The falling
edge of the ENCODE pulse is specified to operate within a win-
dow of time: less than 30 ns after the rising edge of ENCODE
(AD671-500) and less than 50 ns after the falling edge of
ENCODE (AD671750) or after the falling edge of DAV. The
time window prevents digitally coupled noise from being intro-
duced during the final stages of conversion. An internal timing
generator circuit accurately controls all internal timing.

Upon receipt of an ENCODE command, the first 3-bit flash
converts the analog input voltage. The 3-bit result is passed to a
correction logic register and a segmented current output DAC.
The DAC output is connected through a resistor (within the
Range/Span Select Block) to AIN. A residue voltage is created
by subtracting the DAC output from AIN, which is less than
one eighth of the full-scale analog input. The second flash has
an input range that is configured with one bit of overlap with the
previous DAC. The overlap allows for errors during the flash
conversion. The first residue voltage is connected to the second
3-bit flash and to the noninverting input of a high speed, differ-
ential, gain-of-four amplifier. The second flash result is passed
to the correction logic register and to the second segmented cur-
rent output DAC. The output of the second DAC is connected
to the inverting input of the differential amplifier. The differen-
tial amplifier output is connected to a two step backend 8-bit
flash. This 8-bit flash consists of coarse and fine flash convert-
ers. The result of the coarse 4-bit flash converter, also config-
ured to overlap one bit of DAC 2, is connected to the correction
logic register and selects one of 16 resistors from which the fine
4-bit flash will establish its span voltage. The fine 4-bit flash is
connected directly to the output latches.
The AD671 will flag an out-of-range condition when the input
voltage exceeds the analog input range. OTR (Pin 14) is active
HIGH when an out of range high or low condition exists. Bits
112 are HIGH when the analog input voltage is greater than
the selected input range and LOW when the analog input is less
than the selected input range.
APPLYING THE AD671
DRIVING THE AD671 ANALOG INPUT
The AD671 uses a very high speed current output DAC to sub-
tract a known voltage from the analog input. This results in very
fast steps of current at the analog input. It is important to recog-
nize that the signal source driving the analog input of the
AD671 must be capable of maintaining the input voltage under
dynamically-changing load conditions. When the AD671 starts
its conversion cycle, the subtraction DAC will sink up to 5 mA
(see Figure 3) from the source driving the analog input. The
source must respond to this current step by settling the input
voltage back to a fraction of an LSB before the AD671 makes its
final 12-bit decision.

Figure 3. Driving the Analog Input
Unlike successive approximation A/Ds, where the input voltage
must settle to a fraction of a 12-bit LSB before each successive
bit decision is made, the AD671 requires the analog input volt-
age settle to within 12 bits before the third flash conversion,
approximately 200 ns. This "free" 200 ns is useful in applica-
tions requiring a sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA), overlapping
the SHA's hold mode settling time within the 200 ns window
will increase total system throughput. See the "Discrete Sample-
and-Hold" section for a high speed SHA application.
INPUT BUFFER AMPLIFIER
The closed-loop output impedance of an op amp is equal to the
open loop output impedance (usually a few hundred ohms) di-
vided by the loop gain at the frequency of interest. It is often
assumed that loop gain of a follower-connected op amp is suffi-
ciently high to reduce the closed-loop output impedance to a
negligibly small value, particularly if the input signal is low
frequency. At higher frequencies the open-loop gain is lower,
increasing the output impedance which decreases the instanta-
neous analog input voltage and produces an error.
The recommended wideband, fast settling input amplifiers for
use with the AD671 are the AD841, AD843, AD845 or the
AD847. The AD841 is unity gain stable and recommended as a
follower connected op amp. The AD843 and AD845 FET in-
puts make them ideal for high speed sample-and-hold amplifiers
and the AD847 can be used as a low power, high speed buffer.
Figure 4 shows the AD841 driving the AD671. As shown in the
figure the analog input voltage should be produced with respect
to the ACOM pin.

REFERENCE INPUT
The AD671 uses a standard +5 volt reference. The initial accu-
racy and temperature stability of the reference can be selected to
meet specific system requirements. Like the analog input, fast
switching input-dependent currents are modulated at the refer-
ence input pin (REF INPin 19). However, unlike the analog
input the reference input is held at a constant +5 volts with the
use of capacitor. The recommended reference is the AD586, a
+5 V precision reference with an output buffer amplifier. Fig-
ure 5 shows the AD671 configured in the
5 V input range.
The 6.8
F capacitor maintains a constant +5 volts under the
dynamically changing load conditions. An optional 1
F noise
reduction capacitor can be connected to the AD586, further re-
ducing broadband output noise. To minimize ground voltage
drops the AD586's ground pin should be tied as close as pos-
sible to the AD671's ACOM pin. See Figures 20, 21 and 22 for
PCB layout recommendations.

GROUNDING AND DECOUPLING RULES
Proper grounding and decoupling should be a primary design
objective in any high speed, high resolution system. The AD671
separates analog and digital grounds to optimize the manage-
ment of analog and digital ground currents in a system. The
AD671 is designed to minimize the current flowing from
ACOM (Pin 22) by directing the majority of the current from
V
CC
(+5 VPin 23) to V
EE
(5 VPin 24). Minimizing analog
ground currents hence reduces the potential for large ground
voltage drops. This can be especially true in systems that do not
utilize ground planes or wide ground runs. ACOM is also con-
figured to be code independent, therefore reducing input depen-
dent analog ground voltage drops and errors. The input current
supplied by the external reference (REFINPin 19) and the ma-
jority of the full-scale input signal (AINPin 20) are also di-
rected to V
E
. Also critical in any high speed digital design are
the use of proper digital grounding techniques to avoid potential
CMOS "ground bounce." Figure 6 is provided to assist in the
proper layout, grounding and decoupling techniques.
Table I is a list of grounding and decoupling guidelines that
should be reviewed before laying out a printed circuit board.

UNIPOLAR (0 V TO +10 V) CALIBRATION
The AD671 is factory trimmed to minimize offset, gain and lin-
earity errors. In some applications the offset and gain errors of
the AD671 need to be externally adjusted to zero. This is ac-
complished by trimming the voltage at BPO/UPO (Pin 21) and
REFIN (Pin 19). In those applications the AD588, a high preci-
sion pin programmable voltage reference, is an ideal choice. The
AD588 includes a reference cell and three additional amplifiers
which can be configured to provide offset and gain trims for the
AD671. The circuit in Figure 7 is recommended for calibrating
offset and gain errors of the AD671 when configured in the 0 V
to +10 V input range.

Figure 7. Unipolar (0 V to +10 V) Calibration
The AD671 is intended to have a nominal 1/2 LSB offset so
that the exact analog input for a given code will be in the middle
of that code (halfway between the transitions to the codes above
it and below it). Thus, the first transition ( from 0000 0000 0000
to 0000 0000 0001) will occur for an input level of +1/2 LSB
(1.22 mV for 10 V range). If the offset trim resistor R2 is used,
AD671
REV. B
10
it should be trimmed as above, although a different offset can be
set for a particular system requirement. This circuit will give ap-
proximately
50 mV of offset trim range.
The gain trim is done by applying a signal 1 1/2 LSBs below the
nominal full scale (9.9963 for a 10 V range). Trim R1 to give
the last transition (1111 1111 1110 to 11111111 1111).
UNIPOLAR (0 V TO +5 V) CALIBRATION
The connections for the 0 V to +5 V input range calibration is
shown in Figure 8. The AD586, a +5 V precision voltage refer-
ence, is an excellent choice for this mode of operation because
of its performance, stability and optional fine trim. The AD845
(16 MHz, low power, low cost op amp) is used to maintain the
+5 volts under the dynamically changing load conditions of the
reference input.

Figure 8. Unipolar (0 V to +5 V) Calibration
The AD671 offset error must be trimmed within the analog in-
put path, either directly in front of the AD671 or within the sig-
nal conditioning chain, eliminating offset errors induced by the
signal conditioning circuitry. Figure 8 shows an example of how
the offset error can be trimmed in front of the AD671. The
AD586 is configured in the optional fine trim mode to provide
+6%/2% (+240 LSBs/80 LSBs) of gain trim. The procedure
for trimming the offset and gain errors is similar to that used for
the unipolar 10 V range with the analog input values set to one-
half the 10 V range values.

The connections for the bipolar input range is shown in Figure

Bipolar calibration is similar to unipolar calibration. First, a sig-

R1 is trimmed to give the first transition (0000 0000 0000 to
0000 0000 0001). Then a signal 1 1/2 LSB below positive full
scale (+4.9963) is applied, and R2 is trimmed to give the last
transition (1111 1111 1110 to 1111 1111 1111).
OUTPUT LATCHES
Figure 10 shows the AD671 connected to the 74HC574 Octal
D-type edge triggered latches with 3-state outputs. The latch
can drive highly capacitive loads (i.e., bus lines, I/O ports) while
maintaining the data signal integrity. The maximum set-up and
hold times of the 574 type latch must be less than 20 ns (t
DD
and t
SS
minimum). To satisfy the requirements of the 574 type
latch the recommended logic families are HC, S, AS, ALS, F or
BCT. New data from the AD671 is latched on the rising edge of
the DAV (Pin 24) output pulse. Previous data can be latched by
inverting the DAV output with a 7404 type inverter. See Fig-
ures 20, 21 and 22 for PCB layout recommendations.

OUT OF RANGE
An Out of Range condition exists when the analog input voltage
is beyond the input range (0 V to +5 V, 0 V to +10 V,
5 V) of
the converter. OTR (Pin 14) is set low when the analog input
voltage is within the analog input range. OTR is set HIGH and
will remain HIGH when the analog input voltage exceeds the
input range by typically 1/2 LSB (OTR transition is tested to
6 LSBs of accuracy) from the center of the
full-scale output
codes. OTR will remain HIGH until the analog input is within
the input range and another conversion is completed. By logical
ANDing OTR with the MSB and its complement overrange
high or underrange low conditions can be detected. Table II is a
truth table for the over/under range circuit in Figure 11. Sys-
tems requiring programmable gain conditioning prior to the
AD671 can immediately detect an out of range condition, thus
eliminating gain selection iterations.

OUTPUT DATA FORMAT
The AD671 provides both MSB and MSB outputs, delivering
data in positive true straight binary for unipolar input ranges
and positive true offset binary or twos complement for bipolar
input ranges. Straight binary coding is used for systems that ac-
cept positive-only signals. If straight binary coding is used with
bipolar input signals a 0 V input would result in a binary output
of 2048. The application software would have to subtract 2048
to determine the true input voltage. Most processors typically
perform math on signed integers and assume data is in that for-
mat. Twos complement format minimizes software overhead
which is especially important in high speed data transfers, such
as a DMA operation. The CPU is not bogged down performing
data conversion steps, hence increasing the total system
throughput.

HIGH PERFORMANCE SAMPLE-AND-HOLD
AMPLIFIER (SHA)
In order to take full advantage of the AD671's high speed capa-
bilities, a sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) with fast acquisition
capabilities and rigid accuracy requirements is essential. One
possibility is a hybrid SHA such as the HTC-0300A, but often a
cost effective alternative like the one shown in Figure 13 may be
a better solution. This discrete SHA requires very few compo-
nents and is able to acquire signals to 0.01% accuracy in less
than 350 nanoseconds. Combined with the AD671, signals with
bandwidths up to 500 kHz can be converted with 12-bit accuracy.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The discrete SHA shown in Figure 13 is a closed-loop, nonin-
verting architecture which accepts 5 V p-p inputs. The overall
gain of the SHA is +2 in order to accommodate the 10 V input
span of the AD671. The AD841, with a 0.01% settling time of
110 ns, is the suggested input buffer to the SHA. The circuit
also employs a SD5001 which contains four ultrahigh speed
DMOS switches (Q1Q4). The high CMRR, low input offset
current, and fast settling time of the AD845 op amp are all criti-
cal features necessary for optimal performance of the discrete
SHA.
In sample mode, Q1 and Q3 of the SD5001 are closed (Q2 and
Q4 are open). C28 is charged to the input voltage level at a rate
primarily determined by the time constant, R9 C28. Simulta-
neously, C29 is connected to ground through a 250 ohm resis-
tor. If C28 is equal to C29, charge injection from Q1 will be
approximately equal to charge injection from Q3 based on the
symmetry of the circuit and the inherent matching of the switch
capacitances. The resultant pedestal errors appear as a common-
mode signal to the AD845. VR2, R13, R14, and C34 may be in-
cluded if further reduction of pedestal error is required.
In hold mode, Q2 and Q4 are closed (Q1 and Q3 are open) to
reduce feedthrough. The input signal is attenuated 78 dB
relative to the input signal at frequencies up to 500 kHz. The
AD845 buffers the voltage on C28 and also provides the wide-
band, low-impedance output necessary to drive the input of the
AD671.
Droop, which occurs as a result of leakage currents, will appear
on C28 and will similarly appear on C29. Like pedestal errors,
droop appears as a common-mode signal to the AD845 and is
greatly reduced by the differential nature of the circuit. Voltage
droop is typically 5
V/
s.
CROSS COUPLED LATCH
As noted in the Theory of Operation, the ENCODE pulse is
specified to operate within a window of time. The circuit in Fig-
ure 14 can be used to generate a valid ENCODE pulse if a clock
pulse width of greater than 30 ns is available.

TIMING DESCRIPTION
Figure 15 shows the timing requirements for the discrete SHA.
The complementary S/H inputs are HCMOS-compatible al-
though larger gate voltages will improve performance by lower-
ing the on resistances of the DMOS switches. It should be noted
that a conversion is started before the SHA has settled to 0.01%
accuracy. The discrete SHA takes advantage of the fact that the
AD671 does not require a 12-bit accurate input until it is 150 ns
into its conversion cycle. See Figures 21, 22 and 23 for PCB
layout recommendations.

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
In most sampling applications the dynamic performance of the
system is limited by the performance of the SHA. The SHA's

MULTICHANNNEL DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM
The AD684, a quad high speed sample-and-hold amplifier is
ideally suited for multichannel data acquisition applications.
Figure 18 shows a typical data acquisition circuit using the
AD684 (SHA), ADG201HS (Multiplexer), AD588 (Reference)
and the AD671. The AD684 is configured to simultaneously
sample four analog inputs. Each held analog input voltage can
be selected by the multiplexer and buffered by the AD841. The
AD671 is connected in the bipolar input range (
5 V).

AD671 TO ADSP-2100A INTERFACE
Figure 19 demonstrates the AD671 to ADSP-2100A interface.
The 2100A with a clock frequency of 12.5 MHz can execute an
instruction in one 80 ns cycle. The AD671 is configured to per-
form continuous time sampling. The DAV output of the AD671
is asserted at the end of each conversion. DAV can be used to
latch the conversion result into the two 574 octal D-latches. The
falling edge of the sampling clock is used to generate an inter-
rupt (IRQ3) for the processor. Upon interrupt, the ADSP-
2100A starts a data memory read by providing an address on
the DMA bus. The decoded address generates OE for the
latches and the processor reads their output over the DMA bus.
The conversion result is read within a single processor cycle.
AD671 TO ADSP-2101/ADSP-2102 INTERFACE
Figure 20 is identical to the 2100A interface except the sam-
pling clock is used to generate an interrupt (IRQ2) for the pro-
cessor. Upon interrupt the ADSP-2101A starts a data memory
read by providing an address on the Address (A) bus. The de-
code address generates OE for the D-latches and the processor
reads their output over the Data (D) bus. Reading the conver-
sion result is thus completed within a single processor cycle.
