V
to AVDD – 1.85 V. The benefit here is the increased SNR obtained
as a result of this increase. Since the input range is defined in
terms of V
it a ± 3 V input range with an AVDD above 4.85 V. The theo-
retical improvement as a result of this increase in reference is
1.58 dB (20 log [3/2.5]). Due to the theoretical quantization noise,
however, the observed improvement is approximately 1 dB. The
AD780 can be selected with a 3 V reference voltage.
Power Supply
The AD7676 uses three sets of power supply pins: an analog 5 V
supply AVDD, a digital 5 V core supply DVDD, and a digital
input/output interface supply OVDD. The OVDD supply allows
direct interface with any logic working between 2.7 V and
DVDD + 0.3 V. To reduce the number of supplies needed, the
digital core (DVDD) can be supplied through a simple RC filter
from the analog supply as shown in Figure 5. The AD7676 is
independent of power supply sequencing once OVDD does not
exceed DVDD by more than 0.3 V and thus free from supply
voltage-induced latch-up. Additionally, it is very insensitive to
power supply variations over a wide frequency range, as shown in
Figure 9.
POWER DISSIPATION
The AD7676 automatically reduces its power consumption at
the end of each conversion phase. During the acquisition phase,
the operating currents are very low, which allows a significant
power savings when the conversion rate is reduced, as shown in
Figure 10. This feature makes the AD7676 ideal for very low
power battery-operated applications.
It should be noted that the digital interface remains active even
during the acquisition phase. To reduce the operating digital
supply currents even further, the digital inputs need to be driven
close to the power rails (i.e., DVDD and DGND) and OVDD
should not exceed DVDD by more than 0.3 V.

CONVERSION CONTROL
Figure 11 shows the detailed timing diagrams of the conversion
process. The AD7676 is controlled by the signal CNVST, which
initiates conversion. Once initiated, it cannot be restarted or
aborted, even by the power-down input PD, until the conversion
is complete. The CNVST signal operates independently of CS
and RD signals.
For true sampling applications, the recommended operation of
the CNVST signal is the following:
CNVST must be held HIGH from the previous falling edge of
BUSY, and during a minimum delay corresponding to the acqui-
sition time t
is initiated and the BUSY signal goes HIGH until the comple-
tion of the conversion. Although CNVST is a digital signal, it
should be designed with this special care with fast, clean edges,
and levels, with minimum overshoot and undershoot or ringing.
For applications where the SNR is critical, the CNVST signal
should have a very low jitter. To achieve this, some use a dedicated
oscillator for CNVST generation or, at least, to clock it with a
high frequency low jitter clock as shown in Figure 5.
