ing resistors provide industrystandard input ranges
of
5V or

edge of R/C will enable the output data pins, and
the data from the previous conversion becomes
valid. The falling edge then puts the SP7800A in
a hold mode, and initiates a new conversion.
The SP7800A will begin acquiring a new sample
just prior to BUSY output rising, and will track the
input signal until the next conversion is started.
For use with an 8-bit bus, the data can be read out
in two bytes under the control of HBE. With a

Analog Input Ranges
The SP7800A offers two standard bipolar input
ranges:
10V and
5V. If a
10V range is re-
quired, the analog input signal should be con-
nected to pin 1. A signal requiring a
5V range
should be connected to pin 2. In either case, the
other pin of the two must be grounded or connected
to the adjustment circuits described in the section
on calibration.
Controlling The SP7800A
The SP7800A can be easily interfaced to most
microprocessor-based and other digital systems. The
microprocessor may take full control of each conver-
sion, or the SP7800A may operate in a stand-alone
mode, controlled only by the R/C input. Full control
consists of initiating the conversion and reading the
output data at user command, transmitting data either
all 12-bits in one parallel word, or in two 8-bit bytes.
The three control inputs (CS, R/C and HBE) are all
TTL/CMOS compatible. The functions of the control
lines are shown in Table 1.
For stand-alone operation, control of the SP7800A
is accomplished by a single control line connected
to R/C. In this mode, CS and HBE are connected
to GND. The output data are presented as 12-bit
words. The stand-alone mode is used in systems
containing dedicated input ports which do not
require full bus interface capability.
Conversion is initiated by a HIGH-to-LOW transition
OPERATION...
Basic Operation
Figure 1 shows the simple hookup circuit required
to operate the SP7800A in a
10V range in the
Convert Mode. A convert command arriving on
R/C, (a pulse taking R/C LOW for a minimum of
40ns) puts the SP7800A in the HOLD mode, and
a conversion is started. The falling edge of R/C
establishes the sampling instant of the A/D; it must
therefore have very low jitter. BUSY will be held
LOW during the conversion, and rises only after
the conversion is completed and the data has been
transferred to the output drivers. Thus, the rising
edge can be used to read the data from the conver-
sion. Also, during conversion, the BUSY signal
puts the output data lines in Hi-Z states and inhibits
the input lines. This means that pulses on R/C are
ignored, so that new conversions cannot be initi-
ated during a conversion, either as a result of
spurious signals or to short-cycle the SP7800A.
In the Read Mode, the input to R/C is kept nor-
mally LOW, and a HIGH pulse is used to read data
and initiate a conversion. In this mode, the rising

on R/C. The three-state data output buffers are enabled
when R/C is HIGH and BUSY is HIGH. Thus, there
are two possible modes of operation: conversion can
be initiated with either positive or negative pulses. In
either case, the R/C pulse must remain LOW a
minimum of 40ns.
Figure 5 illustrates timing when conversion is initi-
ated by an R/C pulse which goes LOW and returns
HIGH during the conversion. In this case (Convert
Mode), the three-state outputs go into the Hi-Z state in
response to the falling edge of R/C, and are enabled for
external access to the data after completion of the
conversion.
Figure 6 illustrates the timing when conversion is
initiated by a positive R/C pulse. In this mode (Read
Mode), the output data from the previous conversion
is enabled during the HIGH portion of R/C. A new
conversion starts on the falling edge of R/C, and the
three-state outputs return to the Hi-Z state until the next
occurrence of a HIGH on R/C.
Conversion Start
A conversion is initiated on the SP7800A only by a
negative transition occurring on R/C, as shown in
Table 2. No other combination of states or transitions
will initiate a conversion. Conversion is inhibited if
either CS or HBE are HIGH, or if BUSY is LOW. CS
and HBE should be stable a minimum of 25ns prior to
the transition on R/C. Timing relationships for start of
conversion are illustrated in Figure 7.
The BUSY output indicates the current state of the
converter by being LOW only during conversion.
During this time the three-state output buffers remain
in a Hi-Z state, and therefore data cannot be read
during conversion. During this period, additional
transitions on the three digital inputs (CS, R/C and
HBE) will be ignored, so that conversion cannot be
prematurely terminated or restarted.
Internal Clock
The SP7800A has an internal clock that is factory
trimmed to achieve a typical conversion time of
2.6
s, and a maximum conversion time over the
full operating temperature range of 2.7
s. No
external adjustments are required, and with the
guaranteed maximum acquisition time of 300ns,
throughput performance is assured with convert
pulses as close as 3
s.
Reading Data
After conversion is initiated, the output buffers remain
in a Hi-Z state until the following three logic condi-
tions are simultaneously met: R/C is HIGH, BUSY is
HIGH and CS is LOW. Upon satisfying these condi-
tions, the data lines are enabled according to the state
of HBE. See Figure 7 for timing relationships and
specifications.
CALIBRATION...
Optional External Gain And Offset Trim
Offset and full-scale errors may be trimmed to zero
using external offset and full-scale trim potenti-
ometers connected to the SP7800A as shown in
Figure 3.
If adjustment of offset and full scale is not required,
connections as shown in Figure 2 should be used.
Calibration Procedure
Apply a precision input voltage source to your chosen
input range (
10V range at pin1 or
5V at pin 2). Set
the A/D to convert continuously. Monitor the output
code. Trim the offset first, then gain. Use the appropri-
ate input voltages and output target codes for your
chosen input range as follows. The recommended
offset calibration voltage values eliminate interaction
between the offset and gain calibration.

Layout Considerations
Because of the high resolution and linearity of the
SP7800A, system design problems such as ground
path resistance and contact resistance become very
important.
The input resistance of the SP7800A is 6.3k
or
4.2K
(for the
10V and
5V ranges respectively).
To avoid introducing distortion, the source resistance
must be very low, or constant with signal level. The
output impedance provided by most op amps is ideal.
Pins 23 (V
SD
) and 24 (V
SA
) are not connected internally
on the SP7800A, to maximize accuracy on the chip.
They should be connected together as close as pos-
sible to the unit. Pin 24 may be slightly more sensitive
than pin 23 to supply variations, but to maintain

Y
maximum system accuracy, both should be well
isolated from digital supplies with wide load varia-
tions.
To limit the effects of digital switching elsewhere in a
system on the analog performance of the system, it
often makes sense to run a separate +5V supply
conductor from the supply regulator to any analog
components requiring +5V, including the SP7800A.
If the SP7800A traces cannot be separated back to the
power supply terminals, and therefore share the same
trace as the logic supply currents, then a 10 Ohm
isolating resistor should be used between the board
supply and pin 24 (V
DA
) and its bypass capacitors to
keep V
DA
glitchfree. The V
S
pins (23 and 24) should
be connected together and bypassed with a parallel
combination of a 6.8
F Tantalum capacitor and a
0.1
F ceramic capacitor located close to the converter
to obtain noise-free operation. (See Figure 1). Noise
on the power supply lines can degrade converter
performance, especially noise and spikes from a
switching power supply. Appropriate supplies or
filters must be used.
The GND pins (4 and 13) are also separated internally,
and should be directly connected to a ground plane
under the converter. A ground plane is usually the best
solution for preserving dynamic performance and
reducing noise coupling into sensitive converter cir-
cuits. Where any compromises must be made, the
common return of the analog input signal should be
referenced to pin 4, AGND, on the SP7800A, which
prevents any voltage drops that might occur in the
power supply common returns from appearing in
series with the input signal.
Coupling between analog input and digital lines should
be minimized by careful layout. For instance, if the
lines must cross, they should do so at right angles.
Parallel analog and digital lines should be separated
from each other by a pattern connected to common.
If external full scale and offset potentiometers are
used, the potentiometers and related resistors should
be located as close to the SP7800A as possible.
"Hot Socket" Precaution
Two separate +5V V
S
pins, 23 and 24, are used to
minimize noise caused by digital transients. If one pin
is powered and the other is not, the SP7800A may
draw excessive current. In normal operation, this is not
a problem because both pins will be soldered together.
However, during evaluation, incoming inspection,
repair, etc., where the potential of a "Hot Socket"
exists, care should be taken to apply power to the
SP7800A only after it has been socketed.
Minimizing "Glitches"
Coupling of external transients into an analog-to-
digital converter can cause errors which are difficult to
debug. In addition to the discussions earlier on layout
considerations for supplies, bypassing and grounding,
there are several other useful steps that can be taken to
get the best analog performance out of a system using

the SP7800A. These potential system problem sources
are particularly important to consider when develop-
ing a new system, and looking for the causes of errors
in breadboards.
First, care should be taken to avoid glitches during
critical times in the sampling and conversion process.
Since the SP7800A has an internal sample/hold func-
tion, the signal that puts it into the hold state (R/C going
LOW) is critical, as it would be on any sample/hold
amplifier. The R/C falling edge should be sharp (5 to
10ns), have low jitter and minimal ringing, especially
during the 20ns after it falls.
Although not normally required, it is also good prac-
tice to avoid glitches from coupling to the SP7800A
while bit decisions are being made. Since the above
discussion calls for a fast, clean rise and fall on R/C, it
makes sense to keep the rising edge of the convert
pulse outside the time when bit decisions are being
made. In other words, the convert pulse should either
be short (under 100ns so that it transitions before the
MSB decision), or relatively long (over 2.75
s to
transition after the LSB decision).
Next, although the data outputs are forced into a Hi-Z
state during conversion, fast bus transients can still be
capacitively coupled into the SP7800A. If the data bus
experiences fast transients during conversion, these
transients can be attenuated by adding a logic buffer to
the data outputs. The BUSY output can be used to
enable the buffer.

tions, the multiplexer can be switched as soon as R/C
goes LOW (with appropriate delays), but this may
affect the conversion if the switched signal shows
glitches or significant ringing at the SP7800A input.
Whenever possible, it is safer to wait until the conver-
sion is completed before switching and multiplexer.
The extremely fast acquisition time and conversion
time of the SP7800A make this practical in many
applications.
Naturally, transients on the analog input signal are to
be avoided, especially at times within
20ns of R/C
going LOW, when they may be trapped as part of the
charge on the capacitor array. This requires careful
layout of the circuit in front of the SP7800A.
Finally, in multiplexed systems, the timing relative to
when the multiplexer is switched may affect the
analog performance of the system. In most applica-
