TECHNICAL NOTES
1. Obtaining fully specified performance from the ADS-945 requires careful
attention to pc-card layout and power supply decoupling. The device's ana-
log and digital ground systems are connected to each other internally. For
optimal performance, tie all ground pins directly to a large
analog
ground
plane beneath the package.
Footnotes:
All power supplies must be on before applying a start convert pulse. All supplies
and the clock (START CONVERT) must be present during warmup periods. The
device must be continuously converting during this time.
The input to the ADS-945 is internally clamped at ±2.3V.
An 50ns wide start convert pulse is used for all production testing. For applications
requiring less than a 10MHz sampling rate, a wider start convert can be used.
Effective bits is equal to:
This is the time required before the A/D output data is valid after the analog input
is back within the specified range.
Typical +5V and –5.2V current drain breakdowns are as follows:
+5V Analog = +195mA
–5.2V Analog = –170mA
+5V Digital = + 95mA
–5.2V Digital = –180mA
+5V Total = +290mA
–5.2V Total = –350mA

Bypass all power supplies to ground with 10μF tantalum capacitors in
parallel with 0.1μF ceramic capacitors.
The bypass capacitors should be
located as close to the unit as possible.
2. The ADS-945 achieves its specified accuracies without the need for exter-
nal calibration. If required, the device's small initial offset and gain errors
can be reduced to zero using the adjustment circuitry shown in Figure 2.
The typical adjustment range is ±0.2%FSR for this circuitry.
When using this circuitry, or any similar offset and gain-calibration hard-
ware, make adjustments following warmup. To avoid interaction, always
adjust offset before gain.
3. To enable the three-state outputs, apply a logic "0" (low) to OUTPUT
ENABLE (pin 34). To disable, apply a logic "1" (high) to pin 34.
4. A passive bandpass filter is used at the input of the A/D for all production
testing.
5. The ADS-945's digital outputs should not be directly connected to a noisy
data bus. Drive the bus with 573 or 574 type latches and use "low-noise"
logic, such as the 74ALS series.
