SNAS188G – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2013

For single frequency sine waves with angular errors of less than 45° (

π/4) between the two inputs, the full scale

error in LSB can be described as approximately

where

•

dev is the angular difference in degrees between the two signals having a 180° relative phase relationship to

each other (see Figure 32). Drive the analog inputs with a source impedance less than 100

Ω.

Single-Ended Operation

Single-ended performance is inferior to performance obtained when differential input signals are used. For this

reason, single-ended operation is not recommended. However, if single ended-operation is required and the

resulting performance degradation is acceptable, one of the analog inputs should be connected to the d.c. mid

point voltage of the driven input. The peak-to-peak differential input signal at the driven input pin should be twice

Because very large input signal swings can degrade distortion performance, better performance with a single-

ended input can be obtained by reducing the reference voltage when maintaining a full-range output. Table 1 and

Table 2 indicate the input to output relationship of the ADC12DL066. Note again that single-ended operation of

the ADC12D040 is not recommended because of the degraded performance that results. A single-ended to

differential conversion circuit is shown in Figure 34.

amplifier. The capacitance seen at the analog input pins changes with the clock level, appearing as 8 pF when

the clock is low, and 7 pF when the clock is high.
