Board Layout and Bypassing
To obtain the best performance from the LTC1412, a
printed circuit board with ground plane is required. Layout
for the printed circuit board should ensure that digital and
analog signal lines are separated as much as possible. In
particular, care should be taken not to run any digital line
alongside an analog signal line.
An analog ground plane separate from the logic system
ground should be established under and around the ADC.
Pin 5 (AGND), Pins 22 and 14 (DGND) and Pin 19 (OGND)
and all other analog grounds should be connected to this
single analog ground point. The REFCOMP bypass capaci-
tor and the DV
nected to this analog ground plane, see Figure 12. All
analog circuitry grounds should be terminated to this
analog ground plane. The ground return from the ground

plane to the power supply should be low impedance.
Digital circuitry grounds must be connected to the digital
supply common. Low impedance analog and digital power
supply lines are essential to low noise operation of the
ADC. The traces connecting the pins and bypass capaci-
tors must be kept short and should be made as wide as
possible.
The LTC1412 has differential inputs to minimize noise
coupling. Common mode noise on the A
will be rejected by the input CMRR. The A

and A

Supply Bypassing
High quality, low series resistance ceramic, 10 F bypass
capacitors should be used at the V
Surface mount ceramic capacitors such as Murata
GRM235Y5V106Z016 provide excellent bypassing in a
small board space. Alternatively 10 F tantalum capacitors
in parallel with 0.1 F ceramic capacitors can be used.
Bypass capacitors must be located as close to the pins as
possible. The traces connecting the pins and the bypass
capacitors must be kept short and should be made as wide
as possible.
Example Layout
Figures 13a, 13b, 13c and 13d show the schematic and
layout of an evaluation board. The layout demonstrates the
proper use of decoupling capacitors and ground plane
with a two layer printed circuit board.
