The halfflash technique consists of 32 comparators, a most significant 4-bit ADC and a least significant 4-bit ADC. The input to the ADC0820-N is tracked and held by the input sampling circuitry eliminating the need for an external sample-and-hold for signals moving at less than 100 mV/s.

RD can also be used to increase the speed of the converter by reading data prior to the preset internal time out (tI, 800 ns). If this is done, the data result transferred to output latch is latched after the falling edge of the RD (See Figure 5 & Figure 6). RD Mode With CS low, the conversion will start with RD going low, also RD will enable the TRI-STATE data outputs at the completion of the conversion. RDY going TRI-STATE and INT going low indicates the completion of the conversion (See Figure 4). WR-RD Mode INT going low indicates that the conversion is completed and the data result is in the output latch. INT will go low, 800 ns (the preset internal time out, tI) after the rising edge of WR (See Figure 6); or INT will go low after the falling edge of RD , if RD goes low prior to the 800 ns time out (See Figure 5). INT is reset by the rising edge of RD or CS (See Figure 5 & Figure 6). RD Mode INT going low indicates that the conversion is completed and the data result is in the output latch.

Each flash ADC is made up of 15 comparators which compare the unknown input to a reference ladder to get a 4-bit result. To take a full 8-bit reading, one flash conversion is done to provide the 4 most significant data bits (via the MS flash ADC). Driven by the 4 MSBs, an internal DAC recreates an analog approximation of the input voltage. This analog signal is then subtracted from the input, and the difference voltage is converted by a second 4-bit flash ADC (the LS ADC), providing the 4 least significant bits of the output data word. The internal DAC is actually a subsection of the MS flash converter. This is accomplished by using the same resistor ladder for the A/D as well as for generating the DAC signal. The DAC output is actually the tap on the resistor ladder which most closely approximates the analog input. In addition, the "sampled-data" comparators used in the ADC0820-N provide the ability to compare the magnitudes of several analog signals simultaneously, without using input summing amplifiers. This is especially useful in the LS flash ADC, where the signal to be converted is an analog difference. THE SAMPLED-DATA COMPARATOR Each comparator in the ADC0820-N consists of a CMOS inverter with a capacitively coupled input (Figure 17 Figure 18). Analog switches connect the two comparator inputs to the input capacitor (C) and also connect the inverter's input and output. This device in effect now has one differential input pair. A comparison requires two cycles, one for zeroing the comparator, and another for making the comparison. In the first cycle, one input switch and the inverter's feedback switch (Figure 17) are closed. In this interval, C is charged to the connected input (V1) less the inverter's bias voltage (VB, approximately 1.2V). In the second cycle (Figure 18), these two switches are opened and the other (V2) input's switch is closed. The input capacitor now subtracts its stored voltage from the second input and the difference is amplified by the inverter's open loop gain. The inverter's input (VB) becomes (1) and the output will go high or low depending on the sign of VB-VB. The actual circuitry used in the ADC0820-N is a simple but important expansion of the basic comparator described above. By adding a second capacitor and another set of switches to the input (Figure 19), the scheme can be expanded to make dual differential comparisons. In this circuit, the feedback switch and one input switch on each capacitor (Z switches) are closed in the zeroing cycle. A comparison is then made by connecting the second input on each capacitor and opening all of the other switches (S switches). The change in voltage at the inverter's input, as a result of the change in charge on each input capacitor, will now depend on both input signal differences. * * * * VO = VB V on C = V1-VB CS = stray input node capacitor VB = inverter input bias voltage Zeroing Phase Figure 17.

Sampled-Data Comparator Figure 19. ADC0820-N Comparator (from MS Flash ADC) ARCHITECTURE In the ADC0820-N, one bank of 15 comparators is used in each 4-bit flash A/D converter (Figure 25). The MS (most significant) flash ADC also has one additional comparator to detect input overrange. These two sets of comparators operate alternately, with one group in its zeroing cycle while the other is comparing. When a typical conversion is started, the WR line is brought low. At this instant the MS comparators go from zeroing to comparison mode (Figure 24). When WR is returned high after at least 600 ns, the output from the first set of comparators (the first flash) is decoded and latched. At this point the two 4-bit converters change modes and the LS (least significant) flash ADC enters its compare cycle. No less than 600 ns later, the RD line may be pulled low to latch the lower 4 data bits and finish the 8-bit conversion. When RD goes low, the flash A/Ds change state once again in preparation for the next conversion. Figure 24 also outlines how the converter's interface timing relates to its analog input (VIN). In WR-RD mode, VIN is measured while WR is low. In RD mode, sampling occurs during the first 800 ns of RD. Because of the input connections to the ADC0820-N's LS and MS comparators, the converter has the ability to sample VIN at one instant (see Inherent Sample-Hold), despite the fact that two separate 4-bit conversions are being done. More specifically, when WR is low the MS flash is in compare mode (connected to VIN), and the LS flash is in zero mode (also connected to VIN). Therefore both flash ADCs sample VIN at the same time. DIGITAL INTERFACE The ADC0820-N has two basic interface modes which are selected by strapping the MODE pin high or low. RD Mode With the MODE pin grounded, the converter is set to Read mode. In this configuration, a complete conversion is done by pulling RD low until output data appears. An INT line is provided which goes low at the end of the conversion as well as a RDY output which can be used to signal a processor that the converter is busy or can also serve as a system Transfer Acknowledge signal. Figure 20. RD Mode (Pin 7 is Low) When in RD mode, the comparator phases are internally triggered. At the falling edge of RD, the MS flash converter goes from zero to compare mode and the LS ADC's comparators enter their zero cycle. After 800 ns, data from the MS flash is latched and the LS flash ADC enters compare mode. Following another 800 ns, the lower 4 bits are recovered. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 1999-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC0820-N ADC0820-N www.ti.com SNAS529C - JUNE 1999 - REVISED MARCH 2013 WR then RD Mode With the MODE pin tied high, the A/D will be set up for the WR-RD mode. Here, a conversion is started with the WR input; however, there are two options for reading the output data which relate to interface timing. If an interrupt driven scheme is desired, the user can wait for INT to go low before reading the conversion result (Figure 22). INT will typically go low 800 ns after WR's rising edge. However, if a shorter conversion time is desired, the processor need not wait for INT and can exercise a read after only 600 ns (Figure 21). If this is done, INT will immediately go low and data will appear at the outputs. Figure 21. WR-RD Mode (Pin 7 is High and tRDtI) Stand-Alone For stand-alone operation in WR-RD mode, CS and RD can be tied low and a conversion can be started with WR. Data will be valid approximately 800 ns following WR's rising edge. Figure 23. WR-RD Mode (Pin 7 is High) Stand-Alone Operation Note: MS means most significant LS means least significant Figure 24. Operating Sequence (WR-RD Mode) OTHER INTERFACE CONSIDERATIONS In order to maintain conversion accuracy, WR has a maximum width spec of 50 s. When the MS flash ADC's sampled-data comparators (see The Sampled-Data Comparator) are in comparison mode (WR is low), the input capacitors (C, Figure 19) must hold their charge. Switch leakage and inverter bias current can cause errors if the comparator is left in this phase for too long.

The minimum spec for this time (tP, see Figure 4 & Figure 5 & Figure 6 & Figure 7) is 500 ns.

This allows the designer to easily vary the span of the analog input since this range will be equivalent to the voltage difference between VIN(+) and VIN(-). By reducing VREF(VREF = VREF(+) - VREF(-)) to less than 5V, the sensitivity of the converter can be increased (i.e., if VREF = 2V then 1 LSB = 7.8 mV). The input/reference arrangement also facilitates ratiometric operation and in many cases the chip power supply can be used for transducer power as well as the VREF source. This reference flexibility lets the input span not only be varied but also offset from zero. The voltage at VREF(-) sets the input level which produces a digital output of all zeroes. Though VIN is not itself differential, the reference design affords nearly differential-input capability for most measurement applications. Figure 26 shows some of the configurations that are possible. INPUT CURRENT Due to the unique conversion techniques employed by the ADC0820-N, the analog input behaves somewhat differently than in conventional devices. The A/D's sampled-data comparators take varying amounts of input current depending on which cycle the conversion is in. The equivalent input circuit of the ADC0820-N is shown in Figure 27. When a conversion starts (WR low, WR-RD mode), all input switches close, connecting VIN to thirty-one 1 pF capacitors. Although the two 4-bit flash circuits are not both in their compare cycle at the same time, VIN still sees all input capacitors at once. This is because the MS flash converter is connected to the input during its compare interval and the LS flash is connected to the input during its zeroing phase (see Architecture). In other words, the LS ADC uses VIN as its zero-phase input. The input capacitors must charge to the input voltage through the on resistance of the analog switches (about 5 k to 10 k). In addition, about 12 pF of input stray capacitance must also be charged. For large source resistances, the analog input can be modeled as an RC network as shown in Figure 28. As RS increases, it will take longer for the input capacitance to charge. In RD mode, the input switches are closed for approximately 800 ns at the start of the conversion. In WR-RD mode, the time that the switches are closed to allow this charging is the time that WR is low. Since other factors force this time to be at least 600 ns, input time constants of 100 ns can be accommodated without special consideration. Typical total input capacitance values of 45 pF allow RS to be 1.5 k without lengthening WR to give VIN more time to settle.

ADC0820-N Input Circuit Figure 28. Analog Input, RC Network Model INPUT FILTERING It should be made clear that transients in the analog input signal, caused by charging current flowing into VIN, will not degrade the A/D's performance in most cases. In effect the ADC0820-n does not "look" at the input when these transients occur. The comparators' outputs are not latched while WR is low, so at least 600 ns will be provided to charge the ADC's input capacitance. It is therefore not necessary to filter out these transients by putting an external cap on the VIN terminal. INHERENT SAMPLE-HOLD Another benefit of the ADC0820-N's input mechanism is its ability to measure a variety of high speed signals without the help of an external sample-and-hold. In a conventional SAR type converter, regardless of its speed, the input must remain at least 1/2 LSB stable throughout the conversion process if full accuracy is to be maintained. Consequently, for many high speed signals, this signal must be externally sampled, and held stationary during the conversion. Sampled-data comparators, by nature of their input switching, already accomplish this function to a large degree (see The Sampled Data Comparator). Although the conversion time for the ADC0820-N is 1.5 s, the time through which VIN must be 1/2 LSB stable is much smaller. Since the MS flash ADC uses VIN as its "compare" input and the LS ADC uses VIN as its "zero" input, the ADC0820-N only "samples" VIN when WR is low (see Architecture and Input Current). Even though the two flashes are not done simultaneously, the analog signal is measured at one instant. The value of VIN approximately 100 ns after the rising edge of WR (100 ns due to internal logic prop delay) will be the measured value. Input signals with slew rates typically below 100 mV/s can be converted without error. However, because of the input time constants, and charge injection through the opened comparator input switches, faster signals may cause errors. Still, the ADC0820-N's loss in accuracy for a given increase in signal slope is far less than what would be witnessed in a conventional successive approximation device. An SAR type converter with a conversion time as fast as 1 s would still not be able to measure a 5V 1 kHz sine wave without the aid of an external sample-and-hold. The ADC0820-N, with no such help, can typically measure 5V, 7 kHz waveforms. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 1999-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC0820-N ADC0820-N www.ti.com SNAS529C - JUNE 1999 - REVISED MARCH 2013 Typical Applications Figure 29. 8-Bit Resolution Configuration Figure 30. 9-Bit Resolution Configuration * VIN=3 kHz max 4VP * No track-and-hold needed * Low power consumption Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 1999-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC0820-N 17 ADC0820-N SNAS529C - JUNE 1999 - REVISED MARCH 2013 www.ti.com Figure 31.
