DESCRIPTION
The LTC2368-18 is a low noise, low power, high speed 18-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. Operating from a 2.5V supply, the LTC2368-18 has a 0V to VREF pseudo-differential unipolar input range with VREF ranging from 2.5V to 5.1V. The LTC2368-18 consumes only 13.5mW and achieves 2.5LSB INL maximum, no missing codes at 18 bits with 97dB SNR. The LTC2368-18 has a high speed SPI-compatible serial interface that supports 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V and 5V logic while also featuring a daisy-chain mode. The fast 1Msps throughput with no cycle latency makes the LTC2368-18 ideally suited for a wide variety of high speed applications. An internal oscillator sets the conversion time, easing external timing considerations. The LTC2368-18 automatically powers down between conversions, leading to reduced power dissipation that scales with the sampling rate.

LTC2368-18 PIN FUNCTIONS

CHAIN (Pin 1): Chain Mode Selector Pin. When low, the LTC2368-18 operates in normal mode and the RDL/SDI input pin functions to enable or disable SDO. When high, the LTC2368-18 operates in chain mode and the RDL/SDI pin functions as SDI, the daisy-chain serial data input. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. VDD (Pin 2): 2.5V Power Supply. The range of VDD is 2.375V to 2.625V. Bypass VDD to GND with a 10F ceramic capacitor. GND (Pins 3, 6, 10 and 16): Ground. IN+ (Pin 4): Analog Input. IN+ operates differential with respect to IN with an IN+-IN range of 0V to VREF. IN (Pin 5): Analog Ground Sense. IN has an input range of 100mV with respect to GND and must be tied to the ground plane or a remote ground sense. REF (Pins 7, 8): Reference Inputs. The range of REF is 2.5V to 5.1V. This pin is referred to the GND pin and should be decoupled closely to the pin with a 47F ceramic capacitor (X5R, 0805 size). CNV (Pin 9): Convert Input. A rising edge on this input powers up the part and initiates a new conversion. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. BUSY (Pin 11): BUSY Indicator. Goes high at the start of a new conversion and returns low when the conversion has finished. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. RDL/SDI (Pin 12): When CHAIN is low, the part is in normal mode and the pin is treated as a bus enabling input. When CHAIN is high, the part is in chain mode and the pin is treated as a serial data input pin where data from another ADC in the daisy chain is input. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. SCK (Pin 13): Serial Data Clock Input. When SDO is enabled, the conversion result or daisy-chain data from another ADC is shifted out on the rising edges of this clock MSB first. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. SDO (Pin 14): Serial Data Output. The conversion result or daisy-chain data is output on this pin on each rising edge of SCK MSB first. The output data is in straight binary format. Logic levels are determined by OVDD. OVDD (Pin 15): I/O Interface Digital Power. The range of OVDD is 1.71V to 5.25V. This supply is nominally set to the same supply as the host interface (1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5V). Bypass OVDD to GND with a 0.1F capacitor. GND (Exposed Pad Pin 17, DFN Package Only): Ground. Exposed pad must be soldered directly to the ground plane.

LTC2368-18 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

OVERVIEW The LTC2368-18 is a low noise, low power, high speed 18-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. Operating from a single 2.5V supply, the LTC2368-18 supports a 0V to VREF pseudo-differential unipolar input range with VREF ranging from 2.5V to 5.1V, making it ideal for high performance applications which require a wide dynamic range. The LTC2368-18 achieves 2.5LSB INL max, no missing codes at 18 bits and 97dB SNR. Fast 1Msps throughput with no cycle latency makes the LTC2368-18 ideally suited for a wide variety of high speed applications. An internal oscillator sets the conversion time, easing external timing considerations. The LTC2368-18 dissipates only 13.5mW at 1Msps, while an auto power-down feature is provided to further reduce power dissipation during inactive periods. CONVERTER OPERATION The LTC2368-18 operates in two phases. During the acquisition phase, the charge redistribution capacitor D/A converter (CDAC) is connected to the IN+ and IN pins to sample the pseudo-differential analog input voltage. A rising edge on the CNV pin initiates a conversion. During the conversion phase, the 18-bit CDAC is sequenced through a successive approximation algorithm, effectively comparing the sampled input with binary-weighted fractions of the reference voltage (e.g. VREF/2, VREF/4 VREF/262144) using the differential comparator. At the end of conversion, the CDAC output approximates the sampled analog input. The ADC control logic then prepares the 18-bit digital output code for serial transfer. TRANSFER FUNCTION The LTC2368-18 digitizes the full-scale voltage of REF into 218 levels, resulting in an LSB size of 19V with REF = 5V. The ideal transfer function is shown in Figure2. The output data is in straight binary format.

ANALOG INPUT The analog inputs of the LTC2368-18 are pseudo-differential in order to reduce any unwanted signal that is common to both inputs. The analog inputs can be modeled by the equivalent circuit shown in Figure 3. The diodes at the input provide ESD protection. In the acquisition phase, each input sees approximately 45pF (CIN) from the sampling CDAC in series with 40 (RON) from the on-resistance of the sampling switch. The IN+ input draws a current spike while charging the CIN capacitor during acquisition. During conversion, the analog inputs draw only a small leakage current.

LTC2368-18 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS A low impedance source can directly drive the high impedance input of the LTC2368-18 without gain error. A high impedance source should be buffered to minimize settling time during acquisition and to optimize the distortion performance of the ADC. Minimizing settling time is important even for DC inputs, because the ADC input draws a current spike when entering acquisition. For best performance, a buffer amplifier should be used to drive the analog input of the LTC2368-18. The amplifier provides low output impedance, which produces fast settling of the analog signal during the acquisition phase. It also provides isolation between the signal source and the current spike the ADC input draws. Input Filtering The noise and distortion of the buffer amplifier and signal source must be considered since they add to the ADC noise and distortion. Noisy input signals should be filtered prior to the buffer amplifier input with an appropriate filter to minimize noise. The simple 1-pole RC lowpass filter (LPF1) shown in Figure 4 is sufficient for many applications.
LPF1 VREF 0V 50 66nF BW = 48kHz

High quality capacitors and resistors should be used in the RC filters since these components can add distortion. NPO and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can generate distortion from self heating and from damage that may occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount resistors are much less susceptible to both problems. Pseudo-Differential Unipolar Inputs For most applications, we recommend the low power LT6202 ADC driver to drive the LTC2368-18. With a low noise density of 1.9nV/Hz and a low supply current of 3mA, the LT6202 is flexible and may be configured to convert signals of various amplitudes to the 0V to 5V input range of the LTC2368-18. To achieve the full distortion performance of the LTC2368-18, a low distortion single-ended signal source driven through the LT6202 configured as a unity-gain buffer as shown in Figure 4 can be used to get the full data sheet THD specification of 120dB. The LT6202 can also be used to buffer and convert large true bipolar signals which swing below ground to the 0V to 5V input range of the LTC2368-18. Figure 5a shows the LT6202 being used to convert a 10V true bipolar signal for use by the LTC2368-18. In this case, the LT6202 is configured as an inverting amplifier stage, which acts to attenuate and level shift the input signal to the 0V to 5V input range of the LTC2368-18. In the inverting configuration, the single-ended input signal source no longer directly drives a high impedance input. The input impedance is instead set by resistor RIN. RIN must be chosen carefully based on the source impedance of the signal source. Higher values of RIN tend to degrade both the noise and distortion of the LT6202 and LTC2368-18 as a system. Table 1 shows the resulting SNR and THD for several values of RIN, R1, R2, R3 and R4 in this configuration. Figure 5b shows the resulting FFT when using the LT6202 as shown in Figure 5a.

Another filter network consisting of LPF2 should be used between the buffer and ADC input to both minimize the noise contribution of the buffer and to help minimize disturbances reflected into the buffer from sampling transients. Long RC time constants at the analog inputs will slow down the settling of the analog inputs. Therefore, LPF2 requires a wider bandwidth than LPF1. A buffer amplifier with a low noise density must be selected to minimize degradation of the SNR.

The LTC2368-18 requires an external reference to define its input range. A low noise, low temperature drift reference is critical to achieving the full datasheet performance of the ADC. Linear Technology offers a portfolio of high performance references designed to meet the needs of many applications. With its small size, low power and high accuracy, the LTC6655-5 is particularly well suited for use with the LTC2368-18. The LTC6655-5 offers 0.025% (max) initial accuracy and 2ppm/C (max) temperature coefficient for high precision applications. The LTC6655-5 is fully specified over the H-grade temperature range and complements the extended temperature operation of the LTC2368-18 up to 125C. We recommend bypassing the LTC6655-5 with a 47F ceramic capacitor (X5R, 0805 size) close to the REF pin. The REF pin of the LTC2368-18 draws charge (QCONV) from the 47F bypass capacitor during each conversion cycle. The reference replenishes this charge with a DC current, IREF = QCONV/tCYC. The DC current draw of the REF pin, IREF, depends on the sampling rate and output code. If the LTC2368-18 is used to continuously sample a signal at a constant rate, the LTC6655-5 will keep the deviation of the reference voltage over the entire code span to less than 0.5LSBs. When idling, the REF pin on the LTC2368-18 draws only a small leakage current (< 1A). In applications where a burst of samples is taken after idling for long periods as shown in Figure 6, IREF quickly goes from approximately 0A to a maximum of 0.7mA at 1Msps. This step in DC current draw triggers a transient response in the reference that must be considered since any deviation in the reference output voltage will affect the accuracy of the output

In applications where power management is critical and the external reference may be powered down, it is recommended that REF is kept greater than 2V in order to guarantee a maximum shutdown current of 140A. In such applications, a Schottky diode can be placed between REF and VDD, as shown in Figure 7.

the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components except the first five harmonics and DC. Figure 8 shows that the LTC2368-18 achieves a typical SNR of 97.2dB at a 1MHz sampling rate with a 2kHz input. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency band between DC and half the sampling frequency (fSMPL/2). THD is expressed as: THD= 20log V22 + V32 + V42 ++ VN2 V1

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) techniques are used to test the ADCs frequency response, distortion and noise at the rated throughput. By applying a low distortion sine wave and analyzing the digital output using an FFT algorithm, the ADCs spectral content can be examined for frequencies outside the fundamental. The LTC2368-18 provides guaranteed tested limits for both AC distortion and noise measurements. Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINAD) The signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) is the ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and the RMS amplitude of all other frequency components at the A/D output. The output is band-limited to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling frequency. Figure 8 shows that the LTC2368-18 achieves a typical SINAD of 97.1dB at a 1MHz sampling rate with a 2kHz input. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and

where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the second through Nth harmonics. POWER CONSIDERATIONS The LTC2368-18 provides two power supply pins: the 2.5V power supply (VDD), and the digital input/output interface power supply (OVDD). The flexible OVDD supply allows the LTC2368-18 to communicate with any digital logic operating between 1.8V and 5V, including 2.5V and 3.3V systems.

LTC2368-18 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

Power Supply Sequencing The LTC2368-18 does not have any specific power supply sequencing requirements. Care should be taken to adhere to the maximum voltage relationships described in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section. The LTC2368-18 has a power-on-reset (POR) circuit that will reset the LTC2368-18 at initial power-up or whenever the power supply voltage drops below 1V. Once the supply voltage re-enters the nominal supply voltage range, the POR will reinitialize the ADC. No conversions should be initiated until 20s after a POR event to ensure the reinitialization period has ended. Any conversions initiated before this time will produce invalid results. TIMING AND CONTROL CNV Timing The LTC2368-18 conversion is controlled by CNV. A rising edge on CNV will start a conversion and power up the LTC2368-18. Once a conversion has been initiated, it cannot be restarted until the conversion is complete. For optimum performance, CNV should be driven by a clean low jitter signal. Converter status is indicated by the BUSY output which remains high while the conversion is in progress. To ensure that no errors occur in the digitized results, any additional transitions on CNV should occur within 40ns from the start of the conversion or after the conversion has been completed. Once the conversion has completed, the LTC2368-18 powers down and begins acquiring the input signal. Internal Conversion Clock The LTC2368-18 has an internal clock that is trimmed to achieve a maximum conversion time of 527ns. With a minimum acquisition time of 460ns, throughput performance of 1Msps is guaranteed without any external adjustments. Auto Power-Down The LTC2368-18 automatically powers down after a conversion has been completed and powers up once a new conversion is initiated on the rising edge of CNV. During power down, data from the last conversion can be clocked out. To minimize power dissipation during power down, disable SDO and turn off SCK. The auto power-down feature will reduce the power dissipation of the LTC2368-18 as the sampling frequency is reduced. Since power is consumed only during a conversion, the LTC2368-18 remains powered down for a larger fraction of the conversion cycle (tCYC) at lower sample rates, thereby reducing the average power dissipation which scales with the sampling rate as shown in Figure 9. DIGITAL INTERFACE The LTC2368-18 has a serial digital interface. The flexible OVDD supply allows the LTC2368-18 to communicate with any digital logic operating between 1.8V and 5V, including 2.5V and 3.3V systems. The serial output data is clocked out on the SDO pin when an external clock is applied to the SCK pin if SDO is enabled. Clocking out the data after the conversion will yield the best performance. With a shift clock frequency of at least 100MHz, a 1Msps throughput is still achieved. The serial output data changes state on the rising edge of SCK and can be captured on the falling edge or next rising edge of SCK. D17 remains valid till the first rising edge of SCK. The serial interface on the LTC2368-18 is simple and straightforward to use. The following sections describe the operation of the LTC2368-18. Several modes are provided depending on whether a single or multiple ADCs share the SPI bus or are daisy chained.

Normal Mode, Single Device When CHAIN = 0, the LTC2368-18 operates in normal mode. In normal mode, RDL/SDI enables or disables the serial data output pin SDO. If RDL/SDI is high, SDO is in high impedance. If RDL/SDI is low, SDO is driven. Figure 10 shows a single LTC2368-18 operated in normal mode with CHAIN and RDL/SDI tied to ground. With RDL/SDI grounded, SDO is enabled and the MSB(D17) of the new conversion data is available at the falling edge of BUSY. This is the simplest way to operate the LTC2368-18.

Normal Mode, Multiple Devices Figure 11 shows multiple LTC2368-18 devices operating in normal mode (CHAIN = 0) sharing CNV, SCK and SDO. By sharing CNV, SCK and SDO, the number of required signals to operate multiple ADCs in parallel is reduced. Since SDO is shared, the RDL/SDI input of each ADC must be used to allow only one LTC2368-18 to drive SDO at a time in order to avoid bus conflicts. As shown in Figure 11, the RDL/SDI inputs idle high and are individually brought low to read data out of each device between conversions. When RDL/SDI is brought low, the MSB of the selected device is output onto SDO.

LTC2368-18 BOARD LAYOUT

To obtain the best performance from the LTC2368-18 a printed circuit board is recommended. Layout for the printed circuit board (PCB) should ensure the digital and analog signal lines are separated as much as possible. In particular, care should be taken not to run any digital clocks or signals alongside analog signals or underneath the ADC. Recommended Layout The following is an example of a recommended PCB layout. A single solid ground plane is used. Bypass capacitors to the supplies are placed as close as possible to the supply pins. Low impedance common returns for these bypass capacitors are essential to the low noise operation of the ADC. The analog input traces are screened by ground. For more details and information refer to DC1813A, the evaluation kit for the LTC2368-18.
