APPLICATIONS
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD)
If the ADC input signal consists of more than one spectral
component, the ADC transfer function nonlinearity can
produce Intermodulation Distortion in addition to THD.
IMD is the change in one sinusoidal input caused by the
presence of another sinusoidal input at a different
frequency.
If two pure sine waves of frequencies f
to the ADC input, nonlinearities in the ADC transfer func-
tion can create distortion products at the sum and differ-
ence frequencies of mf
etc. For example, the 2nd order IMD terms include
(f
the value (in decibels) of the 2nd order IMD products can
be expressed by the following formula:

Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
The peak harmonic or spurious noise is the largest spec-
tral component excluding the input signal and DC. This
value is expressed in decibel relative to the RMS value of
a full-scale input signal.
Full Power and Full Linear Bandwidth
The full power bandwidth is that input frequency at which
the amplitude of the reconstructed fundamental is re-
duced by 3dB for a full-scale input signal.
The full linear bandwidth is the input frequency at which
the S/(N + D) has dropped to 68dB (11 effective bits). The
LTC1410 has been designed to optimize input bandwidth,
allowing the ADC to undersample input signals with fre-
quencies above the converter’s Nyquist frequency. The
noise floor stays very low at high frequencies; S/(N + D)
does not become dominated by distortion until frequen-
cies far beyond Nyquist.
Driving the Analog Input
The differential analog inputs of the LTC1410 are easy to
drive. The inputs may be driven differentially or as a
single-ended input (i.e., the – A
+ A
Any unwanted signal that is common mode to both
inputs will be reduced by the common mode rejection of
the sample-and-hold circuit. The inputs draw only one
small current spike while charging the sample-and-hold
