Care should be taken to ensure that the analog input does
not exceed the VDD and VSS supply rails by more than 300 mV.
Exceeding this value causes the diodes to become forward
biased and to start conducting into either the VDD supply rail
or the VSS supply rail. These diodes can conduct up to 10 mA
without causing irreversible damage to the part.
can primarily be attributed to pin capacitance. Resistor R1 is a
lumped component made up of the on resistance of the input
multiplexer and the track-and-hold switch. Capacitor C2 is the
sampling capacitor; its capacitance varies depending on the
Track-and-Hold Section
The track-and-hold on the analog input of the
AD7328 allows
the ADC to accurately convert an input sine wave of full-scale
amplitude to 13-bit accuracy. The input bandwidth of the track-
and-hold is greater than the Nyquist rate of the ADC. Th
e AD7328can handle frequencies up to 22 MHz.
The track-and-hold enters its tracking mode on the 14th SCLK
rising edge after the CS falling edge. The time required to acquire
an input signal depends on how quickly the sampling capacitor
is charged. With zero source impedance, 305 ns is sufficient to
acquire the signal to the 13-bit level. The acquisition time for
the ±10 V, ±5 V, and 0 V to +10 V ranges to settle to within
± LSB is typically 200 ns.
The acquisition time required is calculated using the following
formula:
tACQ = 10 × ((RSOURCE + R) C)
where C is the sampling capacitance, and R is the resistance
seen by the track-and-hold amplifier looking at the input.
For the
AD7328, the value of R includes the on resistance of the
input multiplexer and is typically 300 . RSOURCE should include
any extra source impedance on the analog input.
The AD7328 enters track mode on the 14th SCLK rising edge. When the AD7328 is run at a throughput rate of 1 MSPS with a
20 MHz SCLK signal, the ADC has approximately
1.5 SCLK + t8 + tQUIET
to acquire the analog input signal. The ADC goes back into
hold mode on the CS falling edge.
As the VDD/VSS supply voltage is reduced, the on resistance of
the input multiplexer increases. Therefore, based on the equation
for tACQ, it is necessary to increase the acquisition time provided
to t
he AD7328 and, hence, decrease the overall throughput rate.
operating with minimum VDD and VSS supplies, the specified
THD performance is maintained.

Unlike other bipolar ADCs, th
e AD7328 does not have a
resistive analog input structure. On the
AD7328, the bipolar
analog signal is sampled directly onto the sampling capacitor.
analog input impedance can be calculated from the following
formula:
Z = 1/(fS × CS)
where fS is the sampling frequency, and CS is the sampling
capacitor value.
CS depends on the analog input range chosen (see the
input impedance is typically 75 kΩ for the ±10 V range. As the
sampling frequency is reduced, the analog input impedance
further increases. As the analog input impedance increases, the
current required to drive the analog input therefore decreases.
