• Manufacturer: Burr-Brown Corporation

The charging of the input capacitors draws a transient
current from the sensor driving the ADS1255/6 inputs. The
average value of this current can be used to calculate an
effective impedance Z
Figure 11 shows the input circuitry with the capacitors and
switches of Figure 9 replaced by their effective
impedances. These impedances scale inversely with the
CLKIN frequency. For example, if f
factor of two, the impedances will double. They also
change with the PGA setting. Table 10 lists the effective
impedances with the buffer off for f
VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUTS (VREFP, VREFN)
The voltage reference for the ADS1255/6 A/D converter is
the differential voltage between VREFP and VREFN:

ESD diodes protect the reference inputs. To keep these
diodes from turning on, make sure the voltages on the
reference pins do not go below AGND by more than
100mV, and likewise do not exceed AVDD by 100mV:
During self gain calibration, all the switches in the input
multiplexer are opened, VREFN is internally connected to
AIN
may be disabled or enabled during calibration. When the
buffer is disabled, the reference pins will be driving the
circuitry shown in Figure 9 during self gain calibration,
resulting in increased loading. To prevent this additional
loading from introducing gain errors, make sure the
circuitry driving the reference pins has adequate drive
capability. When the buffer is enabled, the loading on the
reference pins will be much less, but the buffer will limit the
allowable voltage range on VREFP and VREFN during
self or self gain calibration as the reference pins must
remain within the specified input range of the buffer in
order to establish proper gain calibration.
A high-quality reference voltage is essential for achieving
the best performance from the ADS1255/6. Noise and drift
on the reference degrade overall system performance. It
is especially critical that special care be given to the
circuitry generating the reference voltages and their layout
when operating in the low-noise settings (that is, with low
data rates) to prevent the voltage reference from limiting
performance.
