At the 19.6 Hz and 39.2 Hz update rates, the INL, power supply rejection (PSR), common- mode rejection (CMR), and normal mode rejection (NMR) do not meet the data sheet specification if the voltage on the AIN(+) or AIN(−) pins exceeds AVDD – 1.6 V typically. In addition, the offset error and offset error drift degrade at these update rates when chopping is disabled. When this voltage is exceeded, the INL, for example, is reduced to 18 ppm of FS typically while the PSR is reduced to 69 dB typically. Therefore, for guaranteed performance at these update rates, the absolute voltage on the analog input pins needs to be below AVDD − 1.6 V. 2 Specification is not production tested but is supported by characterization data at initial product release. 3 Following a calibration, this error is in the order of the noise for the programmed gain and update rate selected. 4 Recalibration at any temperature removes these errors. 5 Full-scale error applies to both positive and negative full-scale, and applies at the factory calibration conditions (AVDD = 4 V, gain = 1, TA = 25°C). 6 FS[3:0] are the four bits used in the mode register to select the output word rate. 7 Digital inputs equal to DVDD or GND with excitation currents and bias voltage generator disabled.

All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 5 ns (10% to 90% of DVDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V. 2 See Figure 3 and Figure 4. 3 These numbers are measured with the load circuit shown in Figure 2 and defined as the time required for the output to cross the VOL or VOH limits. 4 SCLK active edge is falling edge of SCLK. 5 These numbers are derived from the measured time taken by the data output to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit shown in Figure 2. The measured number is then extrapolated back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the times quoted in the timing characteristics are the true bus relinquish times of the part and, therefore, are independent of external bus loading capacitances. 6 RDY returns high after a read of the ADC. In single conversion mode and continuous conversion mode, the same data can be read again, if required, while RDY is high, although care should be taken to ensure that subsequent reads do not occur close to the next output update. In continuous read mode, the digital word can be read only once. ISINK(1.6mAWITHDVDD=5V, 100µAWITHDVDD=3V) TO OUTPUT 1.6V PIN 50pF I1S0O0UµRACWE(IT20H0DµAVDWDIT=H3VD)VDD=5V,04854-002 Figure 2.

Pin Configuration Table 4. Pin Function Descriptions Pin No. Mnemonic Description 1 SCLK Serial Clock Input. This serial clock input is for data transfers to and from the ADC. The SCLK has a Schmitt- triggered input, making the interface suitable for opto-isolated applications. The serial clock can be continuous with all data transmitted in a continuous train of pulses. Alternatively, it can be a noncontinuous clock with the information being transmitted to or from the ADC in smaller batches of data. 2 CLK Clock In/Clock Out. The internal clock can be made available at this pin. Alternatively, the internal clock can be disabled, and the ADC can be driven by an external clock. This allows several ADCs to be driven from a common clock, allowing simultaneous conversions to be performed. 3 CS Chip Select Input. This is an active low logic input used to select the ADC. CS can be used to select the ADC in systems with more than one device on the serial bus or as a frame synchronization signal in communicating with the device. CS can be hardwired low, allowing the ADC to operate in 3-wire mode with SCLK, DIN, and DOUT used to interface with the device. 4 NC No Connect. 5 AIN6(+)/P1 Analog Input/Digital Output Pin.

Therefore, the serial interface DD DD DD operates at 3 V with AV at 5 V or vice versa. DD 23 DOUT/RDY Serial Data Output/Data Ready Output. DOUT/RDY serves a dual purpose. It functions as a serial data output pin to access the output shift register of the ADC. The output shift register can contain data from any of the on-chip data or control registers. In addition, DOUT/RDY operates as a data ready pin, going low to indicate the completion of a conversion. If the data is not read after the conversion, the pin goes high before the next update occurs. The DOUT/RDY falling edge can also be used as an interrupt to a processor, indicating that valid data is available. With an external serial clock, the data can be read using the DOUT/RDY pin. With CS low, the data/control word information is placed on the DOUT/RDY pin on the SCLK falling edge and is valid on the SCLK rising edge. 24 DIN Serial Data Input to the Input Shift Register on the ADC. Data in this shift register is transferred to the control registers within the ADC with the register selection bits of the communications register identifying the appropriate register. Rev.

If a 1 is the first bit written, the part does not clock on to subsequent bits in the register. It stays at this bit location until a 0 is written to this bit. Once a 0 is written to the WEN bit, the next seven bits are loaded to the communications register. CR6 R/W A 0 in this bit location indicates that the next operation is a write to a specified register. A 1 in this position indicates that the next operation is a read from the designated register. CR5 to RS2 to RS0 Register Address Bits. These address bits are used to select which registers of the ADC are being selected during CR3 this serial interface communication. See Table 15. CR2 CREAD Continuous Read of the Data Register. When this bit is set to 1 (and the data register is selected), the serial interface is configured so that the data register can be read continuously, that is, the contents of the data register are automatically placed on the DOUT pin when the SCLK pulses are applied after the RDY pin goes low to indicate that a conversion is complete. The communications register does not have to be written to for data reads. To enable continuous read mode, the instruction 01011100 must be written to the communications register. To exit the continuous read mode, the instruction 01011000 must be written to the communications register while the RDY pin is low. While in continuous read mode, the ADC monitors activity on the DIN line so it can receive the instruction to exit continuous read mode. Additionally, a reset occurs if 32 consecutive 1s are seen on DIN. Therefore, DIN should be held low in continuous read mode until an instruction is written to the device. CR1 to 0 These bits must be programmed to Logic 0 for correct operation. CR0 Table 15.

Cleared when data is written to the ADC data register. The RDY bit is set automatically after the ADC data register has been read or a period of time before the data register is updated with a new conversion result to indicate to the user not to read the conversion data. It is also set when the part is placed in power-down mode. The end of a conversion is also indicated by the DOUT/RDY pin. This pin can be used as an alternative to the status register for monitoring the ADC for conversion data. SR6 ERR ADC Error Bit. This bit is written to at the same time as the RDY bit. Set to indicate that the result written to the ADC data register has been clamped to all 0s or all 1s. Error sources include overrange, underrange, or the absence of a reference voltage. Cleared by a write operation to start a conversion. SR5 NOXREF No External Reference Bit. Set to indicate that the selected reference (REFIN1 or REFIN2) is at a voltage that is below a specified threshold. When set, conversion results are clamped to all 1s. Cleared to indicate that a valid reference is applied to the selected reference pins. The NOXREF bit is enabled by setting the REF_DET bit in the configuration register to 1. The ERR bit is also set if the voltage applied to the selected reference input is invalid. SR4 0 This bit is automatically cleared.

MR12 PSW Power Switch Control Bit. Set by user to close the power switch PSW to GND. The power switch can sink up to 30 mA. Cleared by user to open the power switch. When the ADC is placed in power-down mode, the power switch is opened. MR11 to MR10 0 These bits must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation. MR9 AMP-CM Instrumentation Amplifier Common-Mode Bit. This bit is used in conjunction with the CHOP-DIS bit. With chop disabled, the user can operate with a wider range of common-mode voltages when AMP-CM is cleared. However, the dc common-mode rejection degrades. With AMP-CM set, the span for the common- mode voltage is reduced (see the Specifications section). However, the dc common-mode rejection is significantly better. MR8 0 This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation. MR7 to MR6 CLK1 to CLK0 These bits are used to select the clock source for the AD7794/AD7795. Either the on-chip 64 kHz clock can be used or an external clock can be used. The ability to use an external clock allows several AD7794/AD7795 devices to be synchronized. Also, 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection is improved when an accurate external clock drives the AD7794/AD7795. CLK1 CLK0 ADC Clock Source 0 0 Internal 64 kHz clock. Internal clock is not available at the CLK pin. 0 1 Internal 64 kHz clock. This clock is made available at the CLK pin. 1 0 External 64 kHz. The external clock can have a 45:55 duty cycle (see the Specifications section for the external clock). 1 1 External clock. The external clock is divided by 2 within the AD7794/AD7795. MR5 0 This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation. MR4 CHOP-DIS This bit is used to enable or disable chop. On power-up or following a reset, CHOP-DIS is cleared so chop is enabled. When CHOP-DIS is set, chop is disabled. This bit is used in conjunction with the AMP-CM bit. When chop is disabled, the AMP-CM bit should be set. This limits the common-mode voltage that can be used by the ADC, but the dc common-mode rejection does not degrade.

AD7794/AD7795 Table 18. Operating Modes MD2 MD1 MD0 Mode 0 0 0 Continuous Conversion Mode (Default). In continuous conversion mode, the ADC continuously performs conversions and places the result in the data register. RDY goes low when a conversion is complete. The user can read these conversions by placing the device in continuous read mode whereby the conversions are automatically placed on the DOUT line when SCLK pulses are applied. Alternatively, the user can instruct the ADC to output the conversion by writing to the communica- tions register. After power-on, the first conversion is available after a period of 2/f when chop is enabled or ADC 1/f when chop is disabled. Subsequent conversions are available at a frequency of f with chop either ADC ADC enabled or disabled. 0 0 1 Single Conversion Mode. When single conversion mode is selected, the ADC powers up and performs a single conversion. The oscillator requires 1 ms to power up and settle. The ADC then performs the conversion, which takes a time of 2/f when ADC chop is enabled, or 1/f when chop is disabled. The conversion result is placed in the data register, RDY goes ADC low, and the ADC returns to power-down mode. The conversion remains in the data register and RDY remains active (low) until the data is read or another conversion is performed. 0 1 0 Idle Mode. In idle mode, the ADC filter and modulator are held in a reset state although the modulator clocks are still provided. 0 1 1 Power-Down Mode. In power-down mode, all the AD7794/AD7795 circuitry is powered down including the current sources, power switch, burnout currents, bias voltage generator, and clock circuitry. 1 0 0 Internal Zero-Scale Calibration. An internal short is automatically connected to the enabled channel. A calibration takes two conversion cycles to complete when chop is enabled and one conversion cycle when chop is disabled. RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in idle mode following a calibration. The measured offset coefficient is placed in the offset register of the selected channel. 1 0 1 Internal Full-Scale Calibration. A full-scale input voltage is automatically connected to the selected analog input for this calibration. When the gain equals 1, a calibration takes two conversion cycles to complete when chop is enabled and one conversion cycle when chop is disabled. For higher gains, four conversion cycles are required to perform the full-scale calibration when chop is enabled and 2 conversion cycles when chop is disabled. RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in idle mode following a calibration. The measured full-scale coefficient is placed in the full-scale register of the selected channel. Internal full-scale calibrations cannot be performed when the gain equals 128. With this gain setting, a system full-scale calibration can be performed. A full-scale calibration is required each time the gain of a channel is changed to minimize the full-scale error. 1 1 0 System Zero-Scale Calibration. User should connect the system zero-scale input to the channel input pins as selected by the CH2 bit, CH1 bit, and CH0 bit. A system offset calibration takes two conversion cycles to complete when chop is enabled and one conversion cycle when chop is disabled. RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in idle mode following a calibration. The measured offset coeffi- cient is placed in the offset register of the selected channel. 1 1 1 System Full-Scale Calibration. User should connect the system full-scale input to the channel input pins as selected by the CH2 bit, CH1 bit, and CH0 bit. A calibration takes two conversion cycles to complete when chop is enabled and one conversion cycle when chop is disabled. RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in idle mode following a calibration. The measured full-scale coefficient is placed in the full-scale register of the selected channel. A full-scale calibration is required each time the gain of a channel is changed. Rev.

Set by user to enable unipolar coding, that is, zero differential input results in 0x000000 output and a full-scale differential input results in 0xFFFFFF output. Cleared by the user to enable bipolar coding. Negative full-scale differential input results in an output code of 0x000000, zero differential input results in an output code of 0x800000, and positive full-scale differential input results in an output code of 0xFFFFFF.

AD7794/AD7795 Bit No. Mnemonic Description CON5 REF_DET Enables the reference detect function. When set, the NOXREF bit in the status register indicates when the external reference being used by the ADC is open circuit or less than 0.5 V. When cleared, the reference detect function is disabled. CON4 BUF Configures the ADC for buffered or unbuffered mode of operation. If cleared, the ADC operates in unbuffered mode, lowering the power consumption of the device. If set, the ADC operates in buffered mode, allowing the user to place source impedances on the front end without contributing gain errors to the system. For gains of 1 and 2, the buffer can be enabled or disabled. For higher gains, the buffer is automatically enabled. With the buffer disabled, the voltage on the analog input pins can be from 30 mV below GND to 30 mV above AV . When the buffer is enabled, it requires some headroom so the voltage DD on any input pin must be limited to 100 mV within the power supply rails. CON3 to CH3 to CH0 Channel Select Bits.

This scheme is useful for DSP programmable functions of the AD7794/AD7795 are controlled interfaces. In this case, the first bit (MSB) is effectively clocked using a set of on-chip registers.

The SCLK can continue to run between data also provided by this interface. All communications with the transfers, provided the timing numbers are obeyed. parts must start with a write to the communications register. The serial interface can be reset by writing a series of 1s on the After power-on or reset, each device expects a write to its DIN input. If a Logic 1 is written to the AD7794/AD7795 line communications register. The data written to this register for at least 32 serial clock cycles, the serial interface is reset. determines whether the next operation is a read operation or a This ensures that the interface can be reset to a known state if write operation, and determines to which register this read or the interface gets lost due to a software error or some glitch in write operation occurs.
