LTC1291
ANALOG CONSIDERATIONS
Grounding
The LTC1291 should be used with an analog ground plane
and single point grounding techniques. Do not use wire
wrapping techniques to breadboard and evaluate the device.
To achieve the optimum performance, use a PC board. The
ground pin (Pin 4) should be tied directly to the ground
plane with minimum lead length. Figure 4 shows an
example of an ideal LTC1291 ground plane for a two-sided
board. Of course this much ground plane will not always
be possible, but users should strive to get as close to this
ideal as possible.
Bypassing
For good performance, V
ripple. Any changes in the V
ground during the conversion cycle can induce error or
noise in the output code. V
below 0.5mV by bypassing the V
analog ground plane with a minimum of 22 F tantalum
capacitor and with leads as short as possible. A 0.1 F
ceramic disk capacitor should also be placed directly
across V

Analog Inputs
Because of the capacitive redistribution A/D conversion
techniques used, the analog inputs of the LTC1291 have
capacitive switching input current spikes. These current
spikes settle quickly and do not cause a problem. If large
source resistances are used or if slow settling op amps
drive the inputs, take care to insure the transients caused
by the current spikes settle completely before the
conversion begins.
Minimizing Gain and Offset Error
Because the LTC1291’s reference is taken from the power
supply pin (V
