DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Clock Input Requirements
Clock jitter is critical to the SNR performance of high speed,
high resolution A/D converters. Clock jitter leads to aperture
jitter (t
A
), which adds noise to the signal being converted. The
ADS807 samples the input signal on the rising edge of the
CLK input. Therefore, this edge should have the lowest
possible jitter. The jitter noise contribution to total SNR is
given by the following equation. If this value is near your
system requirements, input clock jitter must be reduced.
where:
IN
is input signal frequency
t
A
is rms clock jitter
Particularly in undersampling applications, special consider-
ation should be given to clock jitter. The clock input should
be treated as an analog input in order to achieve the highest
level of performance. Any overshoot or undershoot of the
clock signal may cause degradation of the performance.
When digitizing at high sampling rates, the clock should
have 50% duty cycle (t
H
= t
L
), along with fast rise and fall
times of 2ns or less.
Over Range Indicator (OTR)
If the analog input voltage exceeds the set full-scale range,
an over range condition exists. The ‘OTR’ pin of the ADS807
can be used to monitor any such out-of-range condition. This
‘OTR’ output is updated along with the data output corre-
sponding to the particular sampled analog input voltage.
Therefore, the OTR data is subject to the same pipeline
delay as the digital data. The OTR output is LOW when the
input voltage is within the defined input range. It will go to
HIGH if the applied signal exceeds the full-scale range.
Data Outputs
The output data format of the ADS807 is in positive Straight
Offset Binary code, see Table II and Table II. This format
can easily be converted into the Two’s Binary Complement
code by inverting the MSB.
It is recommended that the capacitive loading on the data
lines be as low as possible (< 15pF). Higher capacitive
loading will cause larger dynamic currents as the digital
outputs are changing. Those high current surges can feed
back to the analog portion of the ADS807 and affect the
performance. If necessary, external buffers or latches close

to the converter’s output pins may be used to minimize the
capacitive loading. They also provide the added benefit of
isolating the ADS807 from high frequency digital noise on
the bus coupling back into the converter.
Digital Output Driver Supply (VDRV)
The ADS807 features a dedicated supply pin for the output
logic drivers, VDRV, which is not internally connected to
the other supply pins. Setting the voltage at VDRV to +5V
or +3V, the ADS807 produces corresponding logic levels
and can directly interface to the selected logic family. The
output stages are designed to supply sufficient current to
drive a variety of logic families. However, it is recom-
mended to use the ADS807 with +3V logic supply. This will
lower the power dissipation in the output stages due to the
lower output swing and reduce current glitches on the supply
line which may affect the AC performance of the converter.
In some applications, it might be advantageous to decouple
the VDRV pin with additional capacitors or a pi-filter.
GROUNDING AND DECOUPLING
Proper grounding, bypassing, short trace lengths, and the use
of power and ground planes are particularly important for
high frequency designs. Multilayer PC boards are recom-
mended for best performance since they offer distinct advan-
tages such as minimizing ground impedance, separation of
signal layers by ground layers, etc. The ADS807 should be
treated as an analog component. Whenever possible, the
supply pins should be powered by the analog supply. This
will ensure the most consistent results, since digital supply
lines often carry high levels of noise which otherwise would
be coupled into the converter and degrade the achievable
performance. All ground connections on the ADS807 are
internally joined together obviating the design of split ground
planes. The ground pins (1, 20, 26) should directly connect
