Introduction

It's a rapidly changing world - and a moment's reflection reminds us. that, principally, it is electronics
that is causing the changes in our world. Electronic systems are changing too, from all-analog and alldigital types, to a world where analog and digital disciplines co-exist to make inexpensive but powerful
systems arid products that impact even our' daily lives. This Handbook is dedicated to the engineers who
design the data' acquisition and control systems that will playa major role in shaping and improving the
future_

If the overall converter system requires lowpass filtering
of the analog input sign'ai, use a 20· kn or. less series
resistor for a passive RC s,ection or add an op am'p RC
active lowpass filter (with its inherent low output
resistance) to insure accurate conversions.
CLOCK COUPLING
The clock lead should be kept away from the analog
input line to reduce coupling.
LOGIC INPUTS
T-/le logical "1" input voltage swing for the Clock, Start

should be used for TTL logic inputs.

CONTINUOUS CONVERSIONS AND LOGIC CONTROL

RE-START AND DATA VALID AFTER EOC

Simply tying the EOC output to the Start Conversion
input will allow continuous conversions. but· an oscillation on lhis Iilie will exist during the first 4 clock periods
after EOC goes high. Adding a 0 flip-flop between EOC
(D' in'put) to Start Conversion '(0 output) will prevent
the oscillation and will allow a stoplcontinuous control
via the "clear" inpu't:

The EOC line (pin 9) will be in the low state for a maximum of 40 clock periods to indicate "busy". A START
pulse which occurs while the AID is BUSY will reset the
SAR and start a new conversion with the EOC signal
remaining in the low state until. the end of this new
conversion. When the conversion is complete. the EOC
line will go to the high voltage state. An additional 4
clock periods must be allowed to elapse after EOC goes
high. before a new conversion cycle is requested. Start
Conversion pulses which occur during 'this last 4 clock
period interval may be ignored (see Figures 1 and 2 for
high speed operation). This is only a problem for high
conversion rates and keeping the number of conversions per second less than (1/44) x fCLOCK automati·
,cally guarantees proper operation. For example. for an
800 kHz clock •. 18.000 conversions per second are
allowed. The transfer of the new digital data to the
output is initiated when EOC goes to the high voltage
state.

A second control logic application circuit is shown in
Figure 2_. This allows an asynchronous start pulse of

arbitrary length less than TC. continuously converts for
a fixed high level and provides a single clock period
start pulse to the AID. The binary counter is loaded with
a count of 11 when the start pulse to the AID appears.
Counting is inhibited uritil the EOC signal from the AID
goes high. A carry pulse is then generated 4 clock
periods after EOC goes high and is used to reset the
input RS latch. This carry pulse can be used to indicate
that the conversion is complete. the data has transferred
to the output buffers and the system is ready for a new
conversion cycle.

Standard supplies are VSS = 5V. VGG = -12V and
VDD = OV. Device accuracy is dependent on stability
of the reference 'voltage and has slight sensitivity to
VSS -' VGG. VDD has no effect on accuracy. Noise
spikes on the VSS and VGG supplies can cause improper
conversion; therefore. filtering 'each supply with a
4.7 J.lF tantalum capacitor is recommended.

To prevent missing a start pulse which may occur after
EOC goes high and prior' to the required' 4 clock
period time interval. the circuit of. Figure 1 can be used.
The RS latch can be set at any' time and the 4-stage
shift register delays the application of the start pulse
to the AID by 4 clock periods. The RS latch is reset
1 clock period after the AID EOC signal goes to the low
voltage state. This circuit also provic;!es a Start Conversion pulse to the AID which is 1 clock period wide.

repeatability of the device. A chopper-stabilized comparator provides the most effective meth~d of satisfying
all the converter requirements.

The AID converter's successive approximation register
(SAR) is reset on the positive edge' of the start conversion (SC) pulse. The conversion is begun on the falling
edge of the start conversion pulse. A conversion in
process' will be interrupted by receipt of a new start
conversion pulse. Continuous conversion may be accomplished by tying the end-of-conversion (EOC) output to
the SC input. If used in this mode, an external start
conversion pulse should be applied after power up.
End-of-conversion will go low between 1 and 8 clock
PLJlses after the rising edge of start conver~ion.

The chopper·stabilized comparator converts the DC'
input signal into an AC signal. This signal is then fed
through a ~igh gain AC amplifier and has the DC level
restored. This technique limits the drift component of
the amplifier since the drift is a DC component which is
not passed by the AC amplifier. This makes the entire
AID converter extremely insensitive to temperature;
long term drift and input offset errors.

The most important section of the AID converter is the

The AID converter's successive approximation register
(SAR) is reset on the positive edge of the start conver·
sion (SC) pulse. The conversion is begun on the falling
edge of the start conversion pulse. A conversion in
process will be interrupted by receipt of a new start
conversion pulse. Continuous conversion may be accom·
plished by tying the end·of·conversion (EOC) output to
the SC input. If used in this mode, an external start
conversion pulse should be applied after power up.

OPERATION
Ratiometric Conversion
The ADC0816, ADC0817 is designed as a complete
Data Acquisition System (DAS) for ratiometric conversion systems. In ratiometric systems, the physical
variable being measured is expressed as a percentage of
full-scale which is not necessarily related to' an absolute'
standard. The voltage input to the ADC0816 is expressed
by the equation '

Ox

These limitations are automatically satisfied in' ratiometric systems and can be easily met in ground referenced systems.
Figure 9 shows a ground referenced system with a
separate supply and reference. In this system, the supply
must be trimmed to match the reference voltage. For
instance, if a 5.12V reference is used, the supply should
be adjusted to the same voltage within 0.1 V.'

(1)

VIN';' Input voltage into the 'ADC0816
Vfs = Full-scale voltage,
Vz = Zero voltage
Ox = Data point being measured
DMAX = Maximum data limit
DMIN. '" Minimum data limit
A good example of a ratiometric transducer is a potentiometer used as a position sensor. The position of the
wiper is directly proportional to the output voltage
which is a ratio of the full-scale voltage across it. Since
the data is represented as a proportion of full-scale,
. reference requirements are greatly reduced, eliminating
a large source of p.rror and cost for many applications.
A major advantage of the ADC0816, ADCOS17 fs that
the input voltage range is equal to the supply range so
the transducers can be connected directly across the
supply and their outputs connected directly into the,
multiplexer inputs, (Figure 8).
Ratiometric transducers such as potentiometers, strain
gauges, thermistor bridges, pressure transducers, etc."are
suitable for measuring proportional relationships; however, many types of measurements must be referred to
an absolute standard such as voltage or current. This
means a system reference must be used which relates
the full-scale voltage to the standard volt. For example,
if Vee = VREF = 5.12V, then the full-scale range is
divided into 256 standard steps. The smallest standard
step is 1 LSS which is then 20 mV.

The ADeOS16 needs less ,than 'a milliamp of supply
current so de~eloping the supply from the reference is
readily accomplished. In Figure 10 a ground referenced
system' is shown which "generates the 'supply from the'
reference. The buffer shown can be an op amp of sufficient drive to supply the milliamp of supply current
and the desired bus drive, or if a capacitive bus is driven
by the outputs a large capacitor will supply the transient
supply current as seen in Figure 11. The LM301 is
overcompensated to insure stability when loaded by the
10 IlF output capacitor.
The top and bottom ladder voltages cannot exceed
Vee and ground, respectively, but they can be symmetrically less than Vee and greater than ground. The
center of the ladder voltage should always be near the
center of the supply. The sensitivity of the converter
can be increased, (i.e., size of the LSB steps decreased)
by using a symmetrical reference system. In Figure 12,
a 2.5V reference is symmetrically centered about Vec/2
since the same current flows in identical resistors. This
system with a 2.5V reference allows the LSB bit to be
half the size of a 5V,reference system.

OFFSET AND FULL SCALE ADJUST
A variety of techniques may be employed to adjust
Offset and Full Scale on the ADC1210, ADC1211. A
straight·forward Full' Scale Adjust is to incrementally
vary V+ (VREF) to match the analog input voltage.
A recommended technique is shown in Figure 6. An
LM199 and low drift op amp (e.g., tne LHOb44) are
used to provide the precision refer~nce. The ADC1210,
ADC1211 is put in the continuous convert mode by
shorting pins 13 and 14. An analog voltage equal to
VREF minus 1 1/2 LSB (10.23625V) is applied to pins
18 and 19, and- R1 is adjusted until the LSB flickers

An alternate technique is shown in Figure 7. ,In this
instance, an LH0071 is used to provide the reference
voltage. An analog input voltage equal to VREF minus
1 112 LSB (10.23625V) is applied to pins 18 and 19.

Resolution: The Resolution of an A/D is an expression
of the smallest change in input which will increment
(or decrement) the output from one code to the next
adjacent code. It is defined in number of bits, or 1
part in 2n. The ADC1210 and ADC1211 hav,e a resolu·
tion of 12 bits or 1 part in 4,096 (0.0244%).

Linearity Error: Linearity Error is the maximum devia·
,tion from a straight line passing through the end points
of the A/D transfer characteristic. It is measured after
calibrating Zero and Full Scale Error. The Linearity
Error of the ADC1210 is guaran~eed to be less than
±1/2 LSB or ±0.0122% of FS and ±0.048B% of FS for
the AD1211. Linearity is a performance characteristic
intrinsic to the device and cannot be externally adjusted.

Quantization Uncertainty: Quantization Uncertainty is
a direct consequence of the resolution of the converter.
All analog voltages within a given range are represented
by a single digital output cod~. There is, therefore, an
inherent conversion error even for a perfect A/D. As an
example, the transfer characteristic of a perfect 3·bit
A/D is shown in Figure 8.

Zero Scale Error (or Offset): Zero Scale Error is a
measure of the difference between the output of an
ideal and the actual AID for zero input voltage. As
shown in Figure 10, the effect of Zero Scale Error is
to shift the transfer characteristic to the right or left
along the abscissa. Any voltage more negative than the
LSB transition gives an output code of 000. In practice,
therefore, the voltage at which the 000 to 001 transition

As can be seen, all input voltages between OV and 1V
are represented by an output code of 000. All input
voltages between lV and 2V are represented by an
output code of 001, etc. If the midpoint ofthe range is
assumed to be the nominal value (e.g., 0.5Vl, there is an
Uncertainty of ±1/2 LSB. It is common practice to

takes place is ascertained, this input voltage's departure
from the ideal value is defined as the Zero Scale Error

of FS.

output impedance and input resistors R25, R26, R27,
and R28. The gain error may be adjusted to zero as
outlined in the Applications section.
Monotonicity and Missing Codes: Monotonicity is a
property of a D/A which requires an increasing or
constant output voltage for an increasing digital input
code. Monotonicity of a D/A converter does not, in
itself, guarantee that an A/D built with that D/A will
not have missing codes. However, the ADC1210 and
ADC1211 are guaranteed to have no missing codes.

The Zero Scale Error of the ADC1210, ADC1211 is
caused primarily by offset voltage in the comparator.
Because it is common practice to offset the A/D 1/2 LSB
to minimize Quantization Error, the offsetting techniques
described in the Applications Section may be used to
null Zero Scale Error and accompl ish the 1/2 LSB
offset at the same time.

Conversion Time: The ADC1210. ADC1211 are succes·
sive approximation A/D converters requiring 13 clock
intervals for a conversio~ to specified accuracy for the
ADC1210 and 11 clocks for the ADC1211. There is
a trade· off between accuracy and clock frequency due
to settling time of the ladder and propagation delay
through the comparator. By modifying the hysteresis
network around the comparator, conversions with 10·
bit accuracy can be made in 30 f.1s. Replace RA, RB
and CA in Figure 5 with a 10 MQ resistor between
pin 23 (Comparator Output) and pin·17 (+ IN), and
increase the clock rate to 366 kHz.

Full Scale Error (or Gain Error): Full Scale Error is a
measure of the difference between the output of an
ideal A/D converter and the actual AID for an input
voltage equal to full scale. ·As shown in Figure 11, the
Full Scale Error effect is to. rotate the transfer charac·
teristic angularly about the origin. Any voltage more
positive than the Full Scale transition gives an output
code of 111. In practice, therefore, the voltage at which
the transition from 111 to 110 occurs is ascertained.
The input voltage's departure from the ideal value is
defined as Full Scale Error and is expressed as a per·
centage of FS. In the example of Figure 11, Full Scale
Error is 11/2 LSB's, or 0.214% of FS.

In order to prevent errors during conversion, the analog
input voltage' should not be allowed to change by more
than ±1/2 LS8. This places a maximum slew rate of
12.5 f.1V /f.1S on the analog input voltage. The usual solu·
tion to this restriction is to place a Sample and Hold in
front of the A/D. See AN·154 for additional information.

Full Scale Error of the ADC1210, ADC1211 is due
primarily to mismatch in the' R·2R ladder equivalent

A pulse modulation analog-to-digital conversion technique is used and requires no external precision
components. In addition, this technique allows the use
of a reference voltage that is the same polarity as the
input voltage.

conversion input and a conversion complete output are
included on both the ADC3511 and the ADC3711.

One 5V (TTL) power supply is required. Operating
with an isolated supply allows the conversion of positive
as well as negative voltages. The sign of the input voltage
is automatically determined and indicated on the sign
, pin_ If the power supply is not isolated, only one polarity
of voltage may be converted.

• TTL compatible
• Internal clock set with RC network or driven externally
.. Overflow indicated by hex "EEEE" output reading as
well as an overflow output

The conversion rate is set by an internal oscillator.
The frequency of the oscillator can be set by an external
RC network or the oscillator can be driven from an
external frequency source. When using the external RC
network, a square wave output is available.

Applications,

The ADC3511 and ADC3711 have bee." designed to
provide addressed BCD data and are intended for use
with microprocessors and other digital systems. BCD
digits are selected on demand via '2 Digit Select (DO, 01)
inputs. Digit Select inputs are latched by a low-to·high
transition on the Digit Latch Enable (OLE) input and
will remain latched as long as OLE remains high. A start

Typical Applications
Figure 4 shows the ADC3511 and ADC3711 connected

to convert 0 to +2.000 volts full scale operating froin a
non-isolated power supply. (Note that the ADC3511
converts 0 to +1999 counts full scale, while the ADC3711
converts 0 to +3999 counts full scale.) In this configuration the SIGN output (pin 8) should be ignored. Higher
voltages can, of course, be converted by placing fixed
dividers in the inputs, while lower voltages can be con-'
verted by placing fixed dividers in the feedback loop,
as shown in Figure 6.
Figures 5 and 6 show systems operating with isolated
supplies that will convert both polarities of inputs. 60 Hz
common-mode noise can become a problem' in these

2-54

configurat,ions, so shielded transformers have been shown
in the figures. The necessity for, and the type of shielding
needed depends on the performance requirements, and
the actual applications.
The filter capacitors connected to VFB (pin 12) and.
VFIL'fER (pin 11) should' be of a low leakage variety.
In the examples shown every 1.0 nA of leaka~ will
cause approximately 0.1 mV error (1.0 x 10 A x
100 kO = 0.1 mV). If the currents in both capacitors are
exactly equal 'however, little error will result since the
source impedances driving both capacitors are approximately matched.

The offset voltages are assigned as follows: V051 .:.. the
input offset voltage of the buffer; V052 - the input
offset voltage of A 1; V053 - the input offset voltage of
A2; V054 - the input offset voltage of the ·comparator.

The LF13300 goes through the following 5 states
during normal cycle: 1) Offset Correction; 2) Polarity
Determination; 3) Initialization; 4) Ramp Unknown;
5) Ramp Reference

.55 grounds the input of the buffer so that its output'
voltage is simply V051. 56 bypasses R to keep the
integration time constant, RC, from affecting the
circuit operation. 54 makes the total equivalent input
voltage to Al be -V051 - V052. 57 puts the op amp
in a unity gain configuration with respect to the input
of A2. 58 keeps the output voltage of the op amp at
-VB + V054 = -VB' (the Offset Correction potential)
since the comparator is placed inside the loop. C3
samples the output of the -VB generator. The voltage
at the non·inverting input of A2 is -VB - V051 -

Offset Correction Description (Figure 1)
The Offset Correction scheme will drive the input of
the comparator to its switching threshold when the
analog input is zero and. the timing components, RC,
are bypassed.
The Offset Correction input (OC) is driven high, closing
switches 54-59.

connected as in Figure 3 with S2 and S4 closed. Vx is
now applied through the buffer to the - input of the
'integrator. In either Ramp Unknown case, the op amp
"outpu,t ramps in the positive direction and Vx i's applied
to a high impedance JFET input.

VOS2 - VOS3 + VOS4 = V1. Thus, the sum of the
offsets is stored on C1, and the differential voltage
acrbss the comparator is zero .
Polarity Determination (Figure 2)
The simplified diagram of the LF 13300 in the Polarity
Determination state is shown in Figure 2. S5 and S3 are
closed during this period. S5 grounds the buffer input
and Vx (the unknown voltage) is applied through S3 to
the non·inverting input of A1. The equation that des·
cribes the op amp output voltage is given in Figure 2.
When Vx is applied to A1 at q, the output of the op
amp slews to Vx and is integrated until t2, when S3
opens and S4 closes .. At t2, VOUT slews 'down by -VX
leaving

Ramp Reference (Figure 4)
In this stat~, the LF13300 is configured with switches

Application Hints
Increasing the Input Impedance of t~e LF.13300"
MM5863 12-Bit AID Converter
The input impedance 'of the LF13300. ADB120Q
(MM5863) AID converter can be increased.l to 2 orders
of magnitude over the fypical '1000 Mn cited in the
12-bit AID specifications by insuring that the signals
that switch the LF13300 do not overlap. A circuit that
eliminates switching overlap by introducing a Delay
(td) "" 3.3k x 100 pF "': 300 ns to the rising edge of the
signals from the ADB 1200 (MM5863) is shown in
Figure 6. Figure 7 shows the operation of this circuit.
The total delay time tr~ of the output will be equal to
the inherent gate rise, ~ime, t r• plus the. RC delay. td.
The fall time, tf will'·be the basic gate delay_

Eliminating Errors Due to P!lwer Supply Noise
For many applications, power supply noise (f ~ 10Hz)
causes errors which reduces the accwacy of the system.
In most applications, noise can be adequately eliminated
by putting a series resistodl00n} in the power supply
line with a 10 /IF tantalum capacitor connected at the
power supply pihS (Figure 9). The 10 /IF capacitor is,
! in addition to the normal 0.1 /IF ceramic disc capacitors,
used as supply bypass capacitors:
•
Errors caused by noise on the negative supply, -VS,
can be further re'duced by replacing, COC3 with a
10/lF low leakage tantaium capacitor. Since -VB is
3V above -VS, any noise appearing at -VS appears at
-V8; the 10 /IF capac,itor eliminates this noise.

Nulling the Residual Offset

Continuous Convers,ion Mode

The residual offset is < 200 /lV which is negligible for
most applications_ This 'can be reduced to < 40 /lV by
lowering the clock frequency from 250 kHz to about
75 kHz. If a lower residual offset is required, we'may
shown in Figure 8.,' This
trim out the remainder
circuit applies a negative.si:ep to the offset correci:ion
capacitor, COC2, by means of a variallie capacitor which
is adjusted until charge injection imbalance of the offset
correction switches are cancelled_

For using the MM5863 in the continuous conversion
mode, connect the end cif conversion output, EOC
(pin 23), to the output enable input, OE (pin 3), and
connect the start conversion input, SC (pin 2) to 5V.

as

Miscellaneous
Since none of the output pins employ short-circuit
protection, extreme care should be taken when breadboarding or troubleshooting with the power ON.

4-Channel Differential Multiplexer with Autozeroed
Instrumentation Amplifier and 12-Bit AID Convert~r .
Figure 12 shows a low speed, high accuracy, data acqui·
sition unit where the analog input signal is acquired
differentially and preconditioned through an LF352
monolithic instrumentation amplifier. To eliminate
amplifier offset errors, autozeroing circuitry is added
around the LF352 and is timed through the ADS 1200
and flip-flop C. Flip-flops A and B form a 2-bit up
counter for channel select.

during autozero the multiplexer is disabled. Wh'en the
system does poiarity detection a~d AID conversion, the LF352 is active and the multiplexer is enabled.
The zeroing cycle for the LF 13300 and the LF352
lasts' for 256 clock periods, so the' maximum clock
frequency will depend upon the required accuracy and
the minimum zeroing time of the· instrumentation
amplifier. Notice· here that the system accuracy will be
lEiss than 12 bits since it will be' affect~d by the gain
linearity of the instrumentation amplifier.
For more details concerning data acquisition, see AN-156
and LF 1150S/LFl1509 data sheet. For details on the
instrumentation amplifier, see the LF352 data sheet.

The instrumentation amplifier is zeroed at power-up and
after each conversion as shown in the timing. diagram;

3 3/4 Plus Digit (±8191 Counts)/3 1/2-Digit (±1999
Counts) DPM

The DPM is able to operate from a single 15V power
supply with the aid of a dc-dc converter. The LM555
generates the negative voltages required in the circuit
and also doubles as the clock. The combination of
Ql, R2, R3 and R4 forms 'a level shift to convert the
output swing of ' the LM555 to a OV-5V swing that is
compatible with the logic. The LM340-5 drops the
incoming 15V to 5,V for use by the logic circuits and
the LED display.

In this circuit of Figure 19, the LF13300 and ADB1200
interact as previously described. The CMOS counter
(MM74C926, MM74C928) is connected to count clock
pulses during. the ramp reference cycle. The counts are
latched into the, display when. the .comparator output
trips, (goes low), as shown in the timing diagram'
Figure 20.

This circuit can be a 3 3/4 plus digit DPM if the
MM74C926 is used or a 3 1/2-digit DPM if the
MM74C928 is used. These 'counters are pin compatible
and physically interchangeable.

The RC network· consisting of R,1 imd C1 is a low pass
filter that prohibits the fast transients that occur on the
comparator output during Offset Correction from
loading any erroneous counts into the counter.

LM131A/LM131, LM231A/LM231, LM331A/LM331
Precision Voltage-to-Frequency: Converte~s
General Description

)

The LM131/LM231/LM331 family -of voltage-tofrequency converters are ideally suited for use in'simple
low-cost circuits for· analog-to-digital conversion,
precision frequency-to-voltage conversion, long-term.
. integration, linear frequency ;modulation or demodu,
lation, and many other'functions_ The output when used
as a voltage-to-frequency converter is a pulse .train at a
frequency precisely proportional to the applied input
voltage. Thus, it provides all the inherent advantages of
the voltage-to-frequency conversion techniques, and is
easy to apply in all standard voltage-to-frequency
converter applications. Further, the LM131A/LM231A/
LM331A attains a new high level of accuracy versus
temperature which could only be attained with
expensive voltage-to-frequency modules. Additionally
the LM 131 is ideally suited for use in digital systems at
low power 'supply voltages and can provige low-cost
analog-to-digital conversion in microprocessor-controlled
systems. And, the frequency from a battery powered
voltage-to-frequency converter can be easily channeled
through a simple photoisolator to provide isolation
against high common mode levels.

the quick response necessary for 100 kHz voltage-tofrequency conversion_ And the output is capable of
driving 3 TTL loads, or. a high voltage output up to
40V, yet'is short-circuit'-proof against Vee .

TP3000 CODEC System
General Description

The TP3001 system also includes 4 pins for the insertion
and extraction of the signaling bits required for D3
channel bank operation.

Features
• TP3001 uses the standard J.!·255 code
• TP3002 uses the standard A·law code
• Each 2-chip system includes:
• Non·linear D/A converter
• Voltage reference with excellent long term stability
• Comparator
• Successive approximation logic
• Input digital buffer
• Output digital buffer
• Input sample and hold
• Output sample and hold
• Auto·zero circuit
• Control logic
• TP3001 system meets or exceeds all relevant D3
channel bank specifications
• Both systems meet or exceed all relevant CCITT
specifications
• Analog input range of ±5V
• Analog output range of ±5V
• Input and output PCM words can be clocked at
64 to 2100 kilobits per second
• Incoming PCM word may be asynchronous
• Provision for the insertion and extraction of signaling
bits in the TP3001 system
• Opendrain PCM out for TRI-STATE® capability

These IC's contain all the necessary elements required
for a complete CODEC system-both the input and output sample and hold, comparator, stable voltage refer·
ence, non-lin'ear OIA converter, successive approximation
logic, control logic and digital input and output PCM
'buffers. The user must provide an input,aliasing filter
(300 Hz ::; f ::; 3.4 kHz) such as the AF 133 or similar
filter. The AFl34, or similar filter, is available for use as
the output filter (300 Hz::; f ::; 3.4 kHz) which is needed
to reject sidebands around a kHz and provide correction
for the sinxlx frequency distortion introduced by the
output sample and hold.

Applications
• Use with digital switching systems" in telephone
central office or private branch exchange
• Replace 24 or 32·channel shared CODEC in telephone channel bank
• Use to digitize voice and similar analog signals for low
noise transmission and reception

A special auto-zero circuit insures an extremely low idle
channel noise and low crosstalk enhancement. During
the decode cycle, the non-linear OIA converter is shifted
112 LSa, thereby achieving a typical signal to total
distortion performance of at least 3 dB better than the
03 channel bank specifications.

(TP3001 J.!-Law, TP3002 A-Law)

The TP3001 and TP3002 are Pulse Code Modulation
(PCM) systems for the digital coding and decoding of
analog signals in the voice frequency band. The TP3001
system utilizes J.!·law coding of the analog signals while
the TP3002 is an A·law system. Each system consists of
2 IC packages. The TP3001 system uses linear part
LF3700 and CMOS part MM58100. The TP3002 system
uses the same linear part and a different CMOS part
(MM58150). Each system samples a filtered (300 Hz ::;
f ::; 3.4 kHz) analog signal at an a kHz rate, converts
this sampled voltage to an a·bit companded digital code
(J.!-Iaw or A·law) and loads this code into a high speed
serial output buffer. This output buffer will operate at
any speed between 64 and 2100 kilobits per second.
Either system will also accept an incoming a·bit. PCM
word (again, at any speed between 64 and 2100 kilobits
per second) and will automatically ,interrupt the encode
cycle to decode the PCM word and update the COD EC
output sample and hold. After decoding, the systems
will automatically return to the encoding cycle. This
interrupt capability allows either CODEC system to send
and receive PCM data asynchronously. These systems
were specifically designed for low cost "per line" or per
channel COOEC applications.

System Description

(Refer to block

dia~rams)
The incoming PCM word is read in serially (MSB first)
on the PCM IN line by the Input Clock (Fbi) and the
Input Sync (Fi). When the input word has been read in
a.nd Fi goes low, the system will immediately switch,
over to the decode mode. The current status of the'
successive approximation is .temporarily stored while
the decode word is delivered to the NON-LINEAR D/A
CONVERTER. During decode, 'the ladder is shifted the
required 1/2 LSB to minimize distortion. The CON·
TROL LOGIC will then raise the Output S/H Control
line so that the Output Sample and Hold will acquire
this new output. voltage. After 4 clock cycles the circuit
will return to the encode mode. The analog oUtput of
the system will therefore be a staircase type output with
the associated sinx/x frequency distortion,IFigure 3).

The master clock for the system is Fc and must be run at
128 kHz which divides the 1251ls (1/8 kHz) time·frame
into 16 time slots. The rising edge of the Output Sync'
(F 0) initiates the encoding cycle. The Input Sample
and Hold Control (IN S/H CNTL) will go high for 1911s
thereby causing the input sample and hold to acquire a
new input analog voltage. This acquired analog voltage is
presented to a UNITY GAIN BUFFER located on the
CMOS chip and then forwarded to the positive com·
parator input on the linear chip. The successive approximation will then begin. The SUCCESSIVE APPROXIMATION REGISTER will first load a zero code into the
NON·L1NEAR D/A CONVERTER. The output of the
DIA converter goes to a second unity gain buffer and
then to the negative input of the comparator on the
linear chip. The comparator will then decide if the
sampled analog voltage is positive or negative. If the
analog input voltage is positive, the CONTROL LOG IC
will pull the polarity control line high, which in turn '
will cause the voltage reference on the linear chip to
deliver a positive reference voltage to the NON-LINEAR
D/A CONVERTER. Conversely, if the analog input
voltage is negative, a negative reference voltage will be
applied to the NON·L1NEAR D/A. The successive
approximation will turn ON the second bit to the
NON·L1NEAR D/A CONVERTER and a decision is
made to either leave that bit ON, or turn it OFF. The
logic will then turn ON the third bit and make a decision
to leave that bit ON or turn it OFF. In this way, the
analog input voltage can be converted into the standard
8·bit 1l·law or A-law code in 8 clock cycles.

....

The system incorporates an AUTO·ZERO circuit to
ensure a low DC offset for the encoding process, and
very low idle channel noise. The encoded MSB (the sign
bit) is latched on the MSB OUT pin. This signal then is
fed to a simple external low pass RC filter (with a time
constant of about 100 ms to 1 sec) and then to the
AUTO·ZERO pin on the LF3700, The DC voltage on
,this pin will adjust the offset of the input sample and
hold to correct for any offset voltage in the encoding
path. This will also correct for up to ±20 mV DC offset
voltage present in the analog input signal. This scheme
simply forces equal numbers of positive and negative
voltages over the long term.
There are 4 pins available in the TP3001 system for the
inser'tion and extraction of signaling bits. The operation
of these pins is covered in the timing diagrams.

At the end of the encode cycle the 8·bit code is loaded
into the OUTPUT PCM BUFFER. The word is read out
serially (MSB first) on PCM OUT by the Output Clock
(Fbo) and the Output Sync (Fo).

General Description

CJ1

The AD7520 and the AD7521 are, respectively, 10 and
12-bit binary multiplying digital-to-~nalog converters.
A deposited thin film R-2R resistor ladder divides
the reference current and provides the circuit with excellent temperature tracking characteristics (typically
0.0002%tC linearity error temperature coefficient). The
circuit uses CMOS current switches and drive circuitry
to achieve low power consumption (30mW max) and
low leakages (200 nA ·max). The digital inputs are compatible with DTLlTTL logic levels as well as full CMOS
logic level swings. This part, combined with an external
amplifier and voltage reference, can be used as a standard
D/A converter; however, it is also very attractive for
multiplying applications (such as digitally controlled
gain blocks) since its linearity error is essentially independent of the voltage reference.

the 10-bit resolution AD7520 and AD7530 family. The
AD7521 K, AD7521J and AD7521 L 'are direct replacements for the 12-bit resolution AD7521 and AD7531
family. For more information, see DAC1020 data sheet.

general description
The DAC08 is a monolithic 8·bit high·speed current·
output digital·to·analog converter (DAC) featuring
wpical settling times of 100 ns. When used as a
.. multiplying DAC, monotonic performance over a 40 to
1 reference current range is possible. The DAC08 also
features high compliance complementary current. outputs
to allow differential output voltages of 20 Vp·p with
simple resistor loads as shown in Figure 1. The reference·
to·full·scale current matching of better than ±1 LS8
eliminates the need for full scale trims in most applica·
tions while the nonlinearities of better than ±0.1% over.
temperature minimizes system error accumulations.

The DAC0800L, DAC0802L, DAC0800LC, DAC0801 LC
and DAC0802LC are a direct replacement for the
DAC08, DAC08A, DAC08C, DAC08E and DAC08H,
respectively.

The noise immune inputs of 'the DAC08 will accept
TTL levels with the logic threshold pin, VLC, pin 1
grounded. Simple adjustments of the VLC potential
allow direct interface to all logic families .. The perfor·
mance and characteristics of the device are essentially
unchanged over the full ±4.5V to ±18V power supply
range; power dissipation is only 33 mW with' ±5V'
supplies and is independent of the logic input states.

'applicatIon hintsREFERENCE AMPLIFIER DRIVE AND COMPENSATION

114. For bipolar ,reference signals, as in the multiplying
mode, R 15 can be tilid to.a 'negative voltage corresponding to the minimum input level. It' is possible to
eliminate R15 with only a small sacrifice in accuracy
and temperature drift.,
'

The reference amplifier provides 'a voltage at pin 14 for
converting'" the' reference volta'geto a current, and a
turn-around circuit or current mirror for feeding the
ladder. The reference amplifier input current, 114, must
always flow into pin 14, regardless of the set-up method
or refere'nce'voltage polarity.

The compensation capacitor value must be increased
with increases in R14, to maintain proper phase margin;
for R14 values of I, ,2.5 and 5 kn, minimum capa'citor
values, are 15, 37 and ni pF: The capacitor may be tied
to either VEE or ground; but using VEE, increases
negative supply rejection.

Connections for a positive voltage are shown in Figure 7.
The reference voltage source supplies the full current
3-l6

application hints

,(Continued)
of the monolithic resistor ladder. The reference current
may drift with temperature, causing a change in the
absolute accuracy of output current. However, the
DAC0808 has a very low full-scale 'current drift with
temperature.

A negative reference voltage may be used if R 14 is
grounded and the reference voltage is applied to R15 as
shown in Figure 8. A high input impedance is the main
advantage of this method. Compensation involves a
capacitor to VEE on pin 16, using the values of the
previous paragraph. The negative reference voltage must
be at least 4V above the VEE supply. Bipolar input
signals may be handled by connecting R14 to a positive
reference voltage equal to the peak positive input level
at pin 15.

The DAC0808 series is guaranteed accurate to within
±112 LSB at a full-scale output current of 1.992 mA.
This corresponds to a reference amplifier output current
drive to the la'dder network of 2 mA, with the loss of
,1 LSB (8 jlA) which is the ladder remainder shunted to
ground. The input current to pin' 14 has a guaranteed
value of between 1.9 and 2.1 mA, allowing some mismatch in the NPN current source pair. The accuracy test
circuit is shown in' Figure 4. The 12-bit converter is
calibrated for a full·scale output current of 1.992 mAo
This is im optional step since the DAC0808 accuracy is
essentially the same between 1.5 and 2.5 mAo Then the
DAC080B circuits' full-scale current is trimmed to the
same value with R14 so that a zero value appears at the
error amplifier output. The counter is activated and the
error band may be displayed on an oscilloscope, detected
by comparators, or stored in a peak detector:

When a DC reference voltage is used, capacitive bypass
to ground is recommended. The 5V logic supply is not
recommended as a reference voltage. If a well regulated
5V supply which drives logic is to be used as the refer·
ence, R14 should be decoup'led by connecting it to
5V through another resistor and bypassing the junction
of the 2 resistors with 0.1 jlF to ground. For reference
voltages greater than 5V, a clamp diode is recommended
between pin 14 and ground.
If pin 14 is driven by a high impedance such as a
transistor current source, none of 'the above compensa·
tion methods apply and'the amplifier must be heavily
compensated, decreasing'the overall bandwidth.

Two 8-bit D-to-A converters may not be used to
construct a 16-bit accuracy D·to-A converter. 16-bit
accuracy, implies a total error of ± 1/2 of one part in
65,536, or ±0.00076%, which is much more accurate
than the ±0.019% specification provided by the
DAC0808.

OUTPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
The voltage on pin 4 is restricted to a range of -0.6 to
0.5V when VEE ; -5V due to the current switching
methods employed in the DAC0808.

MULTIPLYING ACCURACY
The negative output voltage complia'nce of the DAC0808
is extended to -5V where the negative supply voltage is
more negative than -10V. Using a full·scale current of
1.992 mA and load resistor of 2.5 kn between pin 4
and ground will yield a voltage output of 256 levels
between 0 and -4.980V. Floating pin 1 does.not affect
the converter speed or pow~r dissipation. However, the
value of the load resistor determines the switching time
due to increased voltage swing. Values' of R L up to
500n do not significantly affect performance, but a
2.5 kn load increases worst·case settling time to
1.2 jlS (when all bits are switched ON). Refer to the
subsequent text section on Settling Time for more
details on output loading.

The DAC0808 may be used in the multiplying mode
with 8-bit accuracy when the reference current is varied
over a range of 256: 1. If the reference current in the
multiplying mode ranges from 16 jlA to 4 mA, the
additional error contributions are less than 1.6jlA. This
is well within 8-bit accuracy when referred to full-scale.
A monotonic converter is one which supplies an increase
in current for each increment in the binary word.
Typically, the DAC0808 is monotonic for all values of
reference current above 0.5 mAo The recommended
range for operation with a DC reference current is 0.5 to
4mA.

OUTPUT CURRENT RANGE
, SETTLING TIME
The output current 'maximum. rati,ng of 4.2 mA may be
used only for. negative supply voltages more negative
than -7V, due to the increased voltage drop across the
resistors in the reference current amplifier.

The worst-case switching condition occurs when all
bits are switched ON, which corresponds to a low·to-high
transition for all bits. This time is typically 150 ns
for settling to within '±112 LSB, for 8·bit accuracy,
and 100 ns to 1/2 LSB for 7 and 6·bit accuracy. The
turn OFF is typically under 100 ns. These times apply
when RL S 500n and Co S 25 pF.

ACCURACY
Absolute accuracy is the measure of each output current
level with respect to its intended v'alue, and is dependent
upon relative accuracy and full·scale current drift.
Relative accuracy is t[1e measure of each output current
level as a fraction of the full-scale current. The relative
accuracy of the DAC0808 is essentially constant with
temperature due to the exc~lIent temperature tracking

Extra care must be taken in board layout since this is
usually the dominant factor in satisfactoy test results
when measuring settling time. Short leads, 100 jlF
supply' bypassing for low frequenCies, and minimum
scope lead length are all mandatory.

Operational Amplifier Bias Current (Figure 3)

o

Ope~ational Amplifier VOS Adjust (Figure 3)

The op amp bias current, Ib, flows through the' 10k .
internal feedback resistor. BI·FET op amps have low
Ib and, therefore, the 10k i< Ib error they introduce is
negligible; they are strongly recommended for· the
DAC1020 applications. The 'b' of the LM741 type
bipolar op amps is of the order of 200 /1A and if a
VREF;::; 10V is used, bias curren.t cancellation schemes
are recommended.

Connect all digital inputs, A 1-A 10, to ground and
adjust the potentiometer to bring the op amp VOUT
pin to within ±1 mV from ground potential. If VREF is
less' than 10V, a finerVos adjustment is required. It is
helpful to increase the resolution of the VOS adjust
procedure by connecting a 1 kn resistor between the
inverting input of the op amp to ground. After Vas has
been adjusted, remove the 1 kn.

VOS Considerations

Full·Scilie Adjust (Figure 4)
Switch high all the digital inputs, A 1-A 10, and measure
the op amp output voltage. Use a 500n potentiometer,
. as show~, to bring II",oUTII to a voltage equal to VREF x
1023/1024.
.. .

The output impedance, ROUT, of the DAC is modu·
lated by the digital input code which causes a modulation
of the operational amplifier output offset. It is therefore
recommended to adjust the op amp Vas. ROUT is

Gain Adjust (Full·Scale Adjust)

a)

Assuming that the external 10k resistors are matched to
better than 0.1%, the gain adjust of the circuit is the
same with the one previously discussed.

b)

Switch all the digital inputs high; adjust the Vas
potentiometer of op amp B to bring its output to a
value equal to -(VREF/1024) (V).
Switch the MSB high and ·the remaining digital
inputs low. Adjust the Vas potentiometer of op
amp A, to bring its output value to within a 1 mV
from ground potential. For VREF < 10V, a finer
adjust is necessary, as already mentioned in the
previous application.

Definition Of Terms.
Resolution: Reso!u'tion is defined as the reciprocal of
the num ber of discrete steps in the 0/A output. It is
directly related to the number of switches or bits within
the O/A. For example, the OAC1020 has 2 10 or 1024
steps while the OAC1220 has 212 or 4096 steps. There·
fore, the OAC1020 has 10·bit resolution, while the
OAC12:10 has 12-bit resolution.

Power Supply, Sensitivity: Power supply sensitivity is a
measure of the effect of power supply changes on the
O/A full·scale output:
Settling Time: Full·scale settling time requires a zero to
full·scale or full·scale to zero output change. Settling
time is the time required from a code transition until
the O/A output reaches within ±1/2 LSB of final output
value.

Linearity Error: Linearity error is the maximum devia·
tion from a straight line passing through the endpoints
of the O/A transfer characteristic. It is measured after
calibrating for zero (see Vas adjust in'typical applications) and full·scale. Linearity error is a design parameter
intrinsic to the device and cannot be externally adjusted.

Full-Scale Error: FUll-scale error is a measure of the
output error between an ideal 0/ A and the actual device
output. Ideally, for the OAC1020 full-scale is VREF 1 LSB. For VREF ~ 10V and unipolar operation,
VFULL-SCALE ~ 10.0000V - 9.8 mV ~ 9.9902V.
Full-scale error is adjustable to zero as shown in Figure 5.

(bl By shifting the full-scale calibration on of the DAC
of Figure (b 7) we could pass the "best straight
line" (b21 test and meet the ±1/2 LSB linearity
error specification

Note. (ai, (b1) and (b21 above illustrate the difference between "end point" National's linearity test (al and "best straight line" test.
Note that both devices in (a) and (b2) meet the ±1/2 LSB linearity error specification but the end point test is a more "real life" way

of characterizing the DAC.

1. Introduction
The DAC1200 series D/A converters are designed to
minimize adjustments and user·supplied external com·
ponents. For exa'mple, included in' the package are a
buffered reference, offset nulled output amplifier, and
application resistors as well as the basic 12·bit current
mode D/A.

However, the DAC1200 series is a sophisticated building
block. Its principles of operation and the following
applications information should be read before applying
power to the device.

'Values shown are for VREF = 10.240V.

Selection of power supplies is important in applications
requiring 0.01% ·accuracy. The ±15V supplies should be
well regulated '(±15V ± 0.1%) with less than 0.5mVrms
of output noise and hum.

FIGURE :lA. DAC1200/DAC1201 Bipolar Operation

Access to the summing, junction of A3 affords current
mode operation either with a resistive load or to drive a
fast-settli,ng external operational amplifier. The loop
around A3 should not be closed in current mode operation. There is a ±2.5V maximum,compliance voltage at
A2's output (pin 18) which restricts the maximum size
'of the load resistor; i.e., RL x IFULLSCALE .;;; 2.5V.
Note: IFULLSCALE "" 2 mA for DAC1200/DAC1201
and'" 1.25 mA for DAC1202/DAC1203.

The settling time of the DAC1200 series ana the glitch
which occurs between major, input code changes may be
improved by placing a 10 to 30pF. capacitor between
,pins 18 (current-mode output) and 19 (voltage mode
''outputl. The capacitor is used to cancel output capacitance of the current mode D/A and stray capacitance at
pin 18.

FIGURE 2B. DAC1202/DAC1203 Bipolar Operation

7. Current Output Boosting
The DAC1200 series may be operated as a "power D/A"
by including a current buffer such as the LH0002 or
LH0063 in the loop' with, A3 as shown in figure,' 5.'

External resistors may be used to achieve alternate zero
and full-scale voltages. It is advantageous to utilize R21
and R22 even in these applications since they are ciosely
matched in TCR and temperature to the internal array.
Figure 3 illustrates the recommended circuit for zero to
5V operation'. REXTshould be of metal film or wirewound construction with a TCR of less than 10ppmtC.

LM150SJLM140S S-Bit OJ A Converter
general description
The LM150B/LM140B is an B-bit monolithic digital-toanalog converter (DAC) featuring a full scale output
current settling time of 150 ns while dissipating only
33 mW with ±5V supplies. No reference current (I REF)
trimming is required for most applications since the full
scale output current is typically ±1 LSB of 255 I REFI
256. Relative accuracies of better than ±O.19% assure
B-bit monotonicity and linearity while zero level output
current of less than 4 JlA provides B-bit zero accuracy
for I REF ~ 2 mAo The power supply currents of the
LM150B/LM140B are independent of bit codes, and
exhibits essentially constant device characteristics over
the entire supply voltage range.

ADS1216HC 16-Channel, 12-Bit Data Acquisition
System. with Memory
General Description

Features

The ADS1216HC is a complete 16·channel (differential
a·channel) data acquisition system with 12·bit linearity
and resolution. It features on·card memory and micro
or mini·computerTTL bus driving capability. The system
contains a 16·channel or differential a·channel multi·
plexer; programmable gain ampl ifier with program
memory loaded by software; sample·and·hold amplifier;
12·bit analog·to·digital converter, TRI·STATE@ TTL
bus drivers; and all timing, control, and interface circuits
necessary for interfacing any micro or mini·computer.
The system operates in a continuous, asynchronous,
sequential scanning mode, updating the self·contained
RAM upon completion of each data conversion. In this
way, latest data for all channels is always resident in
RAM. The system is memory·mapped so it appears to
the computer exactly like main memory. The interface
presents selected channel data to the data bus within
220 ns after data is requested; therefore data is acces·
sible at main memory access speed. The system will
operate with any of the popular computer systems by
. selection of appropriate off·card strap connections.

ANALOG INPUTS
Sixteen pairs of input terminals are provided. Those
marked CH 1 to CH S are multiplexed by an S·channel' ,
multiplexer to MUX l-S. Those marked CH 9 to CH 16
are multiplexed gy another S·channel multiplexer to
MUX 9-16. Sixteen additional terminals, marked
COM 1 to COM 16 are not multiplexed, but are can·
nected to ANA COM. These are normally connected to
the transducer or signal common lines except when
multiplexing differential signals. The card connections
are flexible enough to permit 16·channel single·ended,
16·channel quasi·differential or S·channel differential
connections.
8·Channel Differential Connection

An alternate connection will provide more precise
gain accuracy when a unity gain, single·ended amplifier
is required. The connection ,shown in Figure 5b bypasses
the programmable gain amplifier, but retains a precise,
unity gain, FET input, buffer amplifier. With this can·
nection, it may be necessary to readjust the ADC zero.
Do not change the AMP zero control.
An on·card memory must be loaded with the gain
program for each channel from software control in the
computer program. Gain A 1 is selected by writing
XXX316 into each desired channel at the,selected chan·
nel addresses. Gain A2-A4 are selected by writing
XXX2, XXX1 and XXXO, respectively.
Offset

Connect channel 1 signal high and low inputs to CH 1
and CH 9, respectively. Repeat with channels 2-S high
and low to CH 2-CH Sand CH 10-CH 16, respectively.
Connect MUX l-S to AMP HI and MUX 9-16 to
AMP LO; also connect REF 1 to AMP LO as shown in
Figure
The data out will represent the difference in
signal levels as seen by MUX 1-8 and MUX 9-16;
that is, Vo = CH l-CH 9 and so forth to CH S-CH 16.
Input signals must be somewhere referenced to ANA
GND to insure that the input signals are within the
±10V common·mode voltage range of the system. To set
the multiplexer logic to the differential mode, it is
necessary to strap MUX SEL to S·CH.

When analog input signals range from zero upward or
± from zero, the amplifier should not be offset. Can·
necting REF 1, AMP LO, ANA COM, and ANA GND
provides no, offset. However, when analog input signals
have a fixed minimum value and it is desired to utilize
the entire scale range (e.g., VIN = 1-5V). AMP LO can
be offset by connecting to any of the reference voltages
available from the on·card reference divider. These
voltages are 0.1, 1, 5 and 1OV; they are available at
terminals VO.l, Vl, V5 and Vl0. AMP La can be offset
to one value for gains A2-A4, and REF 1 can be offset
to another value for gain A 1. Perhaps, most common
usage would be with only gain Al' offset, say to lV,
for full scale range of 1-,5V on A1 and zero referenced
signals on the other gain settings. To effect this schedule,
connect AMP La to' ANA GND and connect REF 1
to Vl as shown in Figur~s 4, 6 and 7. The AMP LO
terminal is common for gains selected by A2-A4,
while REF 1 is the equivalent AMP LO termina'l' for
gain A1.

16-Channel Single·Ended Connection
Connect channell signal high through channel Hi signal
high to CH l-CH lS, respectively. Connect channell
signal low through channel 11:/ signal low to COM 1COM 16 as in Figure 2. Interconnect ANA GND, ANA
COM, AMP LO, and REF 1; interconnect MUX l-S,
MUX 9-16 and AMP HI. Also strap MUX SEL to
16-CH.
'
16-Channel Quasi·Differential. Connection

SAMPLE AND HOLD'

Connect all 16 pairs of signal lines as for 16'channel
single-ended connection. Strap ANA COM, AMP LO,
and REF 4 as in Figure 3, interconnect MUX l-S,
MUX 9-16 and AMP HI: Do not connect signals to
ANA GND, however, signals must somewhere be referenced to ANA GND. Also strap MUX SEL to 16·CH.

The sample and hold circuit may be bypassed by can·
necting the AMP OUT and ADC IN terminals directly,
as jn Figure 8. If the'sample and hold circuit is to be
used, strap AMP OUT to S&H IN and strap S&H OUT
to ADO IN, as in Figure 7. 'Since the S&H amplifier
exhibits some offset and a slight ga'in error, both controls
on the ADC for offset and full·scale may need readjustment if the S&H is bypassed. These 2 controls are
factory adjusted for use with the S&H amplifier in the
circuit.

,

AMPLIFIER
Gain,
The amplifier gain may be set ,to any of the following
values on a per:channel. I;lasis; 1, 2, 2 1/2, 5, 10, 20,
50, 100. Up to 4 different gains may be selected for
use with any of the '16 data clJannels., Gain is selected
by strapping the gain select terminals A l-A4, to the
gain set terminals G l-G 100. For example, gain 4
is set to 100 in Figure 4 by strapping A4 to Gl00,
gain 2 is set to unity by strapping A2 to G 1, gain 3
is set to 2 by strapping A3 to G2, and gain 1 is set to
2.5 by strapping Alto G2 1/2. If all channels have
a range of 0-10.2375V, the amplifier need not be used
at all unless desired. In this case, strap AMP, La, AMP
HI and REF 1 to ANA GND; and strap JllJUX1-S,
MUX 9-16, and 5&H IN, thus bypassing the amplifier
as in Figure 5a.

ANALOG·TO·DIGITAL CONVERTER CONNECTIONS
The ADC may be used for either positive unipolar or for
bipolar signals. When bipolar· signals are to be coded,
strap OFFSET to REF IN, strap CODE to COMP and
strap D12 to BDll, as In Figure 8. This offsets the ADC
range so that -10.240V is zero.scale or FS0016 and
10.2375V is full·scale or 07FF16 in a 2's complement
binary code with extended sign bit. If desired to use an
offset binary code on bipolar signals, strap OFFSET to
REF IN, CODE to BIN and D12 to LO, as in Figure 1,.
The result will be 000016 for -10.240V input and'
OFFF16 for 10.2375V input. To obtain extended sign,
strap D12 to BD 11 instead of LO.

MEMSEL
This input must be true to select the data card; it is
normally connected to a memory select Iine or a mein·
ory/IO line. For positive true select, strap TMEM to
LO. For zero true select, strap TMEM to VL. If there
is no processor line of similar function, MEMSEL is
strapped to READ and TMEM is strapped to WRITE.
This insures that the on·card clock will be interrupted
for the minimum possible period corresponding to
the actual READ time.

an interface latch must be provided to hold the ,address
data during the data transmission period. Using this
card with a PACE system requires OI;ly a single 4·bit
latch to hold address bits applied at BA l-BA4.
.
READY

This input must be true to write a gain program into
the card; it is normally connected to a memory write
control line. For positive true write, strap TWRITE
to LO. For zero true write,strap TWRITE to VL.

The ready output signal jndicates to the processor
that the data card is ready, to accept data in the write
mode or that valid data 'will be on the .bus in the read
mode; it is normally connected to the processor ready or
wait control line. In the read mode, the READY output
will be available by 120 ns after a .. read command is
received by the card; data will be on the bus by 220 ns
after the read command. In the write mode, READY
will be available by 850 ns after the write signal is
received. The processor will not have to enter a wait
.cycle in the read mode; however, a wait cycle is neces·
sary in the write mode due to internal timing require·
ments on the data card. To obtain a positive true
READY signal, strap SEL RY to RY. To obtain a zero
true READY signal, strap SEL RY to NRY.

READ/WRITE

DATA LINES

READ
This input must be true to read data from the card;
it is normally connected to a memory read control
.line. For positive true read, strap TREAD to VL. For
zero true read, strap TR EAD to LO.
WRITE

For use with processors having a single READIWRITE
control line, strap the READ and WRITE lines together
and connect to the processor read/write line. For READ/
WRITE operation, strap both TREAD and TWRITE to
VL. For'READIWRITE operation, strap both TREAD
and TWRITE to YO.

The data card may be used with either 8 or l6·bit data
busses. For 16·bit busses, all 16 data lines ar,e available.
For 8·bit busses, the lower 8 bits must be paralleled with
the .upper 8 bits. Connect BOO to BD8, BDl to BOg,
and'so forth through BD7 to BD15. See under heading
Analog·to·Digital Converter Connections for consid·
eration of bits 12-15. The 12·bit data appears right
justified on a 16·bit data field. For 2's complement
bipolar dat~, the sign bit is extended to the 4 most
significant bits. For binary data, the 4 most significant
bits are zeros. All data. is positive true. By reconnecting
or reassigning data bus terminals, it is possible to- con·
nect for left·'justified data on a 16·bit data bus. Th is
is not possible for an 8·bit data bus. In this case, connect
. the CODE terminal to LO to set the 4 unused 'bits to
zero, per Figure 10.

ADRS
The ADRS line may be used to latch address data
presented to inputs BA5-BA 16. Data is latched on a
rising (trailing) edge and is unlatched on the next falling
edge. There is no latching capability at any other input.
In most applications, the ADRS line is strapped to LO;
and no latching takes place. However, there are some
processors such as the PACE which utilize a single set
of lines for both address and data. In these ~ystems,

value was determ ined during Phase I. The output re'gister,
will hold the data until a new conversion is completed
and new data is loaded into th~ register. "EEEE" will be
displayed in case of overrange.

The AD134511 is designed for use with the LF13300
dual slope DVM analog front end. Four control signals
are supplied to the LF13300 and one control signal is
required from the LF13300. The conversion cycle is
composed of 5 distinct phases (Figure 4):

Phase V Phase
Phase
Phase
Phase
Phase

I - Polarity Determination
II - Initialization
III - Ramp Unknown
IV - Ramp Reference
V ....: Offset C,?rrection a'nd Standby

Offset Correction (2000 Clock Periods)

The LF13300 requires this phase to correct any intrinsic
offset voltage errors prior to the polarity detect phase.
The end of conversion (EOC) goes to logic "1" after
this cycle and the system goes into the Standby mode.

Phase I - Polarity Determination (2,010 Clock Periods)

Offset Correction (OC) output remains at logic "1"
after OEC, thus the system is continuously corrected
during the Standby mode.

This phase is initiated by taking the start AID conversion
(SAD) input to a logic "1" momentarily (;? 1 CP). It is
used to determine polarity of the analog input. At the
2000th clock period, CaMP from the LF13300 is
examined for polarity. If CaMP = logic "1", then the
input voltage is positive. If CaMP = logic "0", then the
input is negative. The polarity determination ~ignal
(PD/RU+) will.be at a logic "1" during this entire phase.
The above operation is also necessary to determine
which integrator input (positive or negative) of the
LF 13300 should be used for proper AID conversion (see
LF13300 data. sheet).

Clock Generator: The ADB4511 has an 'on-chi~ clock
generator whose frequency 'is adjustable by external
ROSC and Case components. An external clock could
be used with COSC as the clock input.

Counters: The ADB4511 has four -':10 counters and one
72 counter for a cou,rlt of 20,000 clock pulses. The
counters advance at the negative-going clock edge.

Phase II :- Initialization (4000 Clock Periods)

Decimal Point: The decimal point output is a constant
current source. Decimal point inputs 1 and 2 are decoded
to ,drive either of the 4 positions MSD, SSD, ThSQ, FSD
(most, second, third and fourth significant digits). The
decimal point inputs are CMOS and TTL compatible.

This phase is identical to Phase V and is used by the
LF13300 to eliminate any offsets induced as a result of
the Polarity Detect Phase. Offset Correction (OC) will
be ata logic "1". , - ,
,

Digit Drivers: The digit drive buffers are multiplexed
emitter follower outputs. _The, modulo 5, multiplex
counter is triggered by the positive-going clock edge,
making.the multiplex rate 1/320 of the cl,ock frequency.
One-eighth of each digit ON interval is blanked, to
avoid ghosting.

Phase 11'1 ....: Ramp Unknown (20,000 Clock Periods)
The unknown input voltage is integrated for a fixed
time, 20,000 clock periods, during this phase. The result
of, the Phase I Polarity Detect Cycle determines whether
PD/RU+ or RU- will be at logic "1". If Phase I indicates
a positive input, the PD/RU+ signal will be a logic "1".
If Phase I indicates a negative output, Ramp Negative
(RU-) will be a I,ogic "1 ". These 2 signals will never be
at, logic "1" simultaneously.

Phase IV - Ramp Reference

Segment Outputs: The 7-segment outputs are multi,plexed in a similar fashion to the digit outputs. These
clutputs are constant current sources, and are programmable with one external resistor, Rp. (Figure 2). The
most significant digit (+1) is also decoded to be displayed
with the same 7-segment outputs.

This phase is a variable length phase depending on the
magnitude of the ana'iog input voltage. 'During this time,
Ramp Reference (RR) will be in the logic "1" state.
When CaMP goes to a logic "0" state, or when the
internal counter reaches 100% of full-scale (20,000
periods), the Ramp Reference (RR) signal goes to the
logic "0" state and the counter output is loaded into the
output register. The Polarity Bit will reflect whatever

Power Supply: Only one supply is required' for the
system. Two supply pins are provided on the chip in
order to make the interface between the digital and
analog chip noise-free and to lower the power dissipation'
on-chip. RVCC is connected to the output segment
source drivers through an external resistor. REX, to
reduce on-chip power dissipation (Figure 3).

ADD3501 31/2 Digit DVM with Multiplexed 7·Segmerit
Output
general description

features

The ADD3501 (MM74C935-1) monolithic DVM circuit
is manufactured using standard complementary MOS
(CMOS) technology_ A pulse modulation analog-todigital conversion 'technique is used and requires no
external precision components. In addition, this technique allows the use of a reference voltage that is the
same polarity as, the input voltage_

• Operates from single 5 V supply
• Converts O\( to ±1.999V
• Multiplexed 7-segment
•

Drives segments directly

• No external precision component necessary
• Accuracy specified over temperature

One 5 V (TTL) power supply is required. Operating with
an isolated supply allows the conversion of positive' as
well as negative voltages. The, sign of the input voltage
is automatically determined and output on the sign pin.
If the power supply is not isolated, only one polarity of
voltage may be converted.

• Medium speed - 200ms/conversion

The conversion rate is'set by an internal oscillator. The
frequency of the oscillator can be set by an external RG
network or the oscillator can be driven from an external
frequency source. When using the external RC network,
a square wave output is available. It is important to note
that great care has been taken to synchronize digit
multiplexing with the AID conversion timing to eliminate noise due to power supply transients.

•

• I nternal clocl~ set with
externally
.

• Overrange indicated by +OF L or -OF L display reading
and 0 F LO output

The ADD3501 has been designed to drive 7-segment
multiplexed LED displays directly with the aid of
external digit buffers and segment resistors_ Under
condition of overrange, the overflow output will go high
and the display will read +OF L or -OF L, depending on
whether the input voltage is positive or negative_ In
addition to this, the most 'significant digit is blanked
when zero.

theorY of operation'
A schematic for the analog loop. is shown in figure 1.
. The output of SW1 is eitHer at V REF or 'zero volts,
depending on the state of the D flip-flop. If a is at a
high level VOUT = V REF and if a is at a low level VOUT
= OV. This voltage is then applied to. the low pass filter
comprised of R1'an'd Cl. The ou~put of this filter, V FB ,
is connected to the negative input of the comparator,
where it is compared to the analog input voltage, V IN'
The output of the comparator is connected to the D
input of the D flip-flop. Information is then transferred
from the D input fo the a and a outputs on the positive
edge of clock. This loop forms an oscillator whose duty
cycle is precisely related to the analog input voltage. V IN'

The lowpass filter will pass the DC value and thel'):
V FB

!'

V REF (duty cycle)

Since the closed loop system will always force V FB to
eq4al V IN , we can then say that:
V REF (dutx cycle)
or

An example will demonstrate this relationship. Assume
the input voltage is equal to 0.500 V. If the a output of
the D flip-flop is high ·then V OUT will equal V REF
(2.000V) and V FB will charge toward 2V with a time
constant equal to RIC:'. At some time ,V FB will exceed
0.500V and the comparator output will switch to OV.
At the next clock rising edge the a output of the D flipflop will switch to ground, causing VOUT to switch to
OV. At this time "FB will start discharging tollllard OV
with a time constant RIC~, When VF:B is less than 0.5V
the comparator output will switch high. On the rising
edge of the next clock the a output of the D flip-flop
will switch high and the process will repeat. There exists
at the output of'SWl a 'square wave pulse train' with
positive amplitude' V REF ' and negative amplitude OV.

The duty cycle is logically ANDed with the input
frequency fiN' The resultant frequency f. equals: .'
f = (duty cycle) x (clock)

Frequency f is accumulated by counter no. 1 for a time
'determined by counter no. 2. The count contained in
counter no. 1 is then:

general information
The timing diagram, shown in figure 2, gives operation
for the free running mode. Free running operation is
obtained by connecting the Start Conversion input to
logic "I" (Veel. In this mode the analog input is con·
tinuously converted and the display is updated at a rate
equal to 64,512 x l/f lN .

Internally the ADD3501 is always continuously converting the analog voltage present at its inputs. The Start
Conversion input is used to control the transfer of information from the internal counter to the display latCh.,

The rising edge of the Conversion Complete output
indicates that new information has been transferred
from the internal counter to the displ~y latch. This
information will remain in the display latch until the
next low-to-high transition of the Conversion Complete
output. A logic "I" will be maintained on the Conversion
Complete output for a time equal to 64 x l/f lN .

An RS latch on the Start Conversion input allows a
broad range of .input pulse widths to be used on this
signal. As shown in figure 3, the Conversion Complete
output goes to a logic "0" on the rising edge of the
Start Conversion pulse and goes to a logic "I" some time
later when the new conversion is transferred from the
internal counter to the display latch. Since the Start
Conversion pulse can occur at any time during the
conversion cycle, ,the amount ot'time from Start Conversion to Conversion Complete will vary. The maximum
time is 64,512 x llflN and the minimum time is
256 x llf lN .

Figure 3 gives the operation using the Start Conversion
input. It is important to note that the Start Conversion
input and Conversion Complete output do not influence
the actual analog-to-digital conversion in any way.

Theory of Operation
A schematic 'for the analog loop is shown in figure 1.
The output of SW1 is either at V REF or zero volts,
depending on the state of the D flip·flop. If Q is at a
high level, VOUT = V REF and if Q is at a low level VOUT
= 0 V. This voltage is then applied to the low pass filter
comprised of R 1 and C1. The output of this filter, V FS,
is connected to the negative input of the comparator,
where it is compared to the analog input voltage, V ,N .
The output of the comparator is connected to the D
input of the D flip·flop. Information is then transferred
from the D input to the Q and Q outputs on the positive
edge of clock. This loop forms an oscillator whose duty
cycle is precisely related to the analog input voltage, V IN'

The lowpass. filter will pass the DC value and then:

V FS = V REF (duty.cycle)

.

Since the closed loop system will always force V FS to
equal V ,N , we can then say that:

V ,N = VFS = V REF (duty cycle)
or,

V ,N

..

- - = (duty cycle)
V REF

An example will demonstrate this relationship. Assume
the input voltage is equal to 0.500 V. If the Q output of
the D flip·flop is high then V OUT will equal V REF
(2.000 V) and V FS will charge toward 2 V with a time
constant equal to R,C,. At some time V FS will exceed
0.500 V and the comparator output will switch to 0 V.
At the next clock rising edge the Q output of the D flip·
flop will switch to ground, causing V OUT to switch to
0,\1. At this time V FS will start discharging toward 0 V
wi'th a time constant R, C,. When V FS is less than 0.5 V
the comparator output will switch high. On the rising
edge of the next clock the Q output of the D flip·flop
will switch high and the process will repeat. There exists
at the output of SW1 a square wave pulse train with
positive amplitude V REF and negative amplitude 0 V.

The duty cycle is logically ANDed with the input
frequency fiN' The resultant'frequency f equals: .
f = (duty cycle) x (clock)

Frequency f is accumulated by counter no. 1 for a time
determined by counter no. 2. The count contained in
counter no. 1 is then:
(count)

=__f_ _ = (duty cycle) x (clock)
(clock)/N

The DC value of this pulse train is:

VOUT

= VREF

tON
tON + tOFF

= VREF

(duty cycle)

For the ADD3701 N = 4000.

General Information
The timing diagram, shown in figure 2, gives operation
for the free running mode. Free running operation is
obtained bV connecting the Start Conversion input to
logic "1" (Vee). In this mode the analog input is continuously converted and the display is updated at a rate
equal to 129,024 x l/f/ N •

Internally the ADD3701 is always continuously converting the analog voltage present at its .inputs. The Start
Conversion input is used to control the transfer of
information from the internal counter to the display
latch..
.

The rising edge of the Conversion Complete' output
indicates that new information has been transferred
from the internal counter to the display latch .. This
information will remain in the di.splay latch until the
next low-to·high transition of the Conversion Complete
output. A logic "1" will be maintained on the Conversion
C,:,mplete output for a time equal to 128 x l/f lN .

An RS ·Iatch on the Start Conversion input allows a
broad range of input pulse widths to be used on this
signal. As shown in figure 3, the Conversion Complete
output 'goes to a logic "O"on the rising edge of the
Start Conversion pulse and goes to a logic ~~1" some time
later when the new conversion is transferred from the
internal counter to the display latch. Since the Start
Conversion pulse can occur at any time during the
conversion cycle, the amount of time from Start Con·
version to Conversion Complete will vary. The maximum
time' is 129,024 X llflN and the minimum time is
512x 1/fIN'

Figure 3 gives the operation using the Start Conversion
input. It is important to note that the Start Conversion
input and Conversion Complete output do not influence
the actual analog-to-digital conversion in any way.

SYSTEM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

The Il)ost important characteristic of transients on the
Vee line is the duration of the transient and not its
amplitude,

Perhaps the most important thing to consider when
designing a system using' the ADD3701 is power suPpJy
noise on the Vcc and ground lines. Because a single
power supply is used and currents in the 300 mA range
are being switched, good circuit layout techniques
cannot be overemphasized. Great care has been exercised
in the design' of the ADD3701 to minimize these prob·
lems but poor printed 'circuit layout cal) negate these
features.
.

Figure 4 shows a DPM system which converts 0 to +3.999
counts operating from a non·isolated power supply.
In th,is configuration the sign output could be + (logic
"I") or - (logic "0") and it should be ignored. Higher
voltages could be converted by placing a fixed divider
on the input; lower voltages could be converted by
placing a fixed divider on the feedback, as shown in
figure 5.

Figures 4, 5, and 6 show schematics of DVM systems.
An attempt has been made to show, on these schematics,
the proper di'stribution for ground and Vcc. To help
isolate digital. and analog portions of the circuit, the
analog Vee and ground have been separated from the
digital Vee and gr~und. Care must be taken to eliminate
high current from flowing in the analog Vee and ground
wires. The most effective method of accomplishing this
is to use a single ground point and a single Vee point
where all wires are brought together. In addition to this
the conductors must be of sufficient size to prevent
significant voltage drops.

Figures 5 and 6, show systems operating with an isolated
supply that will convert positive and negative inputs.
60 Hz common mode input becomes a problem in this
configuratioJ1 and a transformer with an electrostatic
shield between primary and secondary windings is shown.
The necessity for using a shielded transformer depends
on'the performance requirements and the actual application.
The filter capacitors connected to V FB (pin 14) and
V FLT (pin 11) should be low leakage. In the application
examples shown every 1.0nA of leakage current will
cause 0,1 mV error (1.0xl0- 9 A x 100kn = 0.1 mV).
If the leakage current in both capacitors is exactly the
same no error will result since the source impedances
driving them are matched.

To prevent switching noise from causing jitter problems,
a voltage regulator with good high frequency response
is necessary. The LM309 and the LM340·5 voltage
regulators all function well and are shown in figures 4,
5, and 6. Adding more filtering than is shown will in
general increase the jitter rather than decrease it.

LM103
, Reference Diode**
general description
The LM103 is a two-terminal monolithic reference
diode electrically equivalent to a breakdown diode_
The device makes use of the reverse punch·through
of double-diffused transistors, combined with active circuitry, to produce a breakdown character·
istic which i~ ten times sharper than single-junction
zener diodes at low voltages. Breakdown voltages
from 1.8V to 5.6V are available; and, although the
design is optim ized for operation between 100 ~A
and 1 mA, it is completely specified from 10 /lA to .'
10 mAo Noteworthy features of the device are:

• Performance guaranteed over full military tem·
perature range
• Planar, passivated junctions for stable operation
•

The LM 103, packaged in a hermetically sealed,
modified TO·46 header is useful in a wide range of
circuit applications from level shifting to simple
voltage regulation. It can also be' employed with
operational amplifiers in producing breakpoints to
generate nonlinear transfer functions. Finally, its
unique characteristics recommend it as a reference
element in low voltage power supplies with input
voltages down to 4V.

• Exceptionally sharp breakdown
•

Low capacitance.

LM113/LM313 Reference'Diode
general description
The LM 113/LM313 are tem'perature compensated,
low voltage reference diodes. They feature ex·
tremely-tight regulation over a wide range' of
operating,currents in addition to an unusuallY·low
breakdown voltage and good temperature stability.

• Dynamic impedance of '0.3n from 500 JlA to
20mA
,
• Temperature stability typically 1% over -55°C
to 125°C range (LMl13). O°C to 70°C (LM313)
., Tight tolerance: ±5% standard, ±2% and ±1 %
on special order.
The characteristics of this reference recommend it
for use in bias-regulation circuitry, ,in low·voltage
power supplies or in battery powered e'quipment.
The fact that the breakdown voltage is equal to a
physical property of silicon-the energy~band·gap
voltage-makes it useful for many temperaturecompensation and temperature-measurement
, functions .

The diodes are synthesized using transistors and
resistors in a monolithic integrated circuit. As such,
they have the same low noise and long term
stability as modern 'IC op amps. Further, output
voltage of the reference depends only on highly·
,predictable properties of components in the IC;
so they can be manufactured and supplied to tight
tolerances. Outstanding features include:
• Low breakdown voltage: 1.220V

LM129, LM329 Precision Reference
general description
The LM 129 and LM329 family are precision multicurrent temperature compensated 6_9V zener references
with dynamic impedances a factor of 10 to 100 less than
discrete diodes_ Constructed in a single silicon chip, the
LM 129 uses active circuitry to buffer the internal zener
allowing the device to operate over a 0_5 mA to 15 mA
range with virtually no change, in performance. The
LM129 and LM329 are available with selected temperature coefficients of 0.001, 0:002, 0.005 and O.Ol%tC.
These new references also have excellent long term
stability and I?w noise.

simplifies biasing and the wide operating current allows
the replacement of many zener types.
The LM 129 is packaged in a 2-lead TO-46 package and is
rated for operation over a -55°C to +125°C temperature
range. The LM329 for operation over 0-70°C is available in both a hermetic TO-46 package and a TO-92
epoxy package.

features'
A new subsurface breakdow'n zener used in the LM129
gives lower noise and better long term stability than
conventional IC zeners. Further the zener and temperature, compensating transistor are made by a planar
process so they are imn:lUne to problems that plague
ordinary zeners. For example, there is virtually no
voltage shifts in zener voltage due to temperature cycling
and the device is insensitive to stress on the leads.

LM134/LM234/LM3343-Terminal
Adjustable Current Sources
General Description
The LM134/LM234/LM334 are 3-terminal adjustable
current sources featuring 10,000: 1 range in operating
current, excellent current regulation, and a wide dynamic
voitage range of 1V to 40V _ Current is established with
one external resistor and no other parts are required.
Initial current accuracy is ±3%_ The LM134/LM234/
LM334 are true floating current sources with no separate
power supply connections. In, addition, reverse applied
voltages of up to 20V will draw only a few microamperes
of current, allowing the devices to act as both a rectifier
and current source in AC applications.

LM134-3/LM234-3 and LM134-61LM234-6 are specified
as true temperature sensors with ,guaranteed initial
accuracy of ±3° C and ±6° C, respectively. These devices
are ideal in remote sense applications because series
resistance in long wire runs does not affect accuracy.
In addrtion, only 2 wires are required.
The LM134 is guaranteed over a temperature range of
-55°C to +125°C, the LM234 from -25°C to +100°C
and the LM334 from O°C to +70°C. These devices are
available in TO-46 hermetic and TO-92 plastic packages.

The sense voltage used to establish operating current in
the LM 134 is 64 mV at 25°C and is directly proportional to absolute temperature (OK). The simplest one
external resistor connection, then, generates a current
with ""+0.33%fC temperature dependence. Zero drift
operation can be, obtained by adding one extra resistor
and a diode.

Application Hints
The LM 136 series voltage references are much easier to
use than ordinary zener diodes. Their low impedance
and wide' operating current range simplify biasing in
almost any circuit. Further,either the breakdown volt·
age or the temperature coefficient can be adjusted to
optimize circuit performance.

adjust for both the initial device tolerance and inaccuracies in buffer circuitry.
If minimum temperature coefficient is desired, two
diodes can be added in series with the adjustment potentiometer as shown in' Figure 2_ When the device is
adjusted to 2.490V the temperature coefficient is minimized. Almost any silicon signal diode can be used for
this purpose such as a 1N914, 1N4148 or a 1N457. For
proper temperature compensation the diodes should be
in' the same thermal environment as the LM136. It is
usually sufficient to mount the diodes near the LM136
on the printed circuit board. The absolute resistance of
R 1 is not critical and any value from 2k to 20k will work.

Figure 7 shows an LM136 with a 10k potentiometer'

for adjusting the reverse breakdown voltage. With the
addition of R1 the breakdown voltage can be adjusted
without affecting the temperature coefficient of the
device. The adjustment range is usually sufficient to

general description
calibration standards, precision voltage or current sources
or precision power supplies. Further in many cases the
.LM199 can replace references'in existing equipment
with a minimum of widng changes.

The LM199/LM299/LM399 are precision, temperaturestabilized monolithic zeners offering temperature
coefficients a factor of ten better than high quality
reference zeners_ Constructed on a single monolithic
chip is a temperature stabilizer circuit and an active .
reference zener_ The active circuitry reduces the dynamic
impedance of the zener to about 0.5Q and allows the
zener to operate over 0.5 mA to 10 mA current range
with essentially no change in voltage or temperature
coefficient. Further, a new subsurface zener structure
gives low noise and excellent long term stability compared to ordinary monolithic zeners. The package is
supplied with a thermal shield to minimize heater power
and improve temperature regulation.

The LM 199 series devices are packaged in a standard
hermetic TO-46 package inside a thermal shield. The
LM199 is rated for operation from -55°C to +125°C
while the LM299· is rated for operation from -25°C to
+85°C and the LM399 is rated from O°C to +70°C.

features

The LM199 series references are exceptionally easy to
use and free of the problems that are often experienced
with ordinary zeners. There is virtually no' hysteresis in
reference voltage with temperature cycling. Also, the
LM199 is free of voltage shifts due to stress on the leads.
Finally, since the unit is temperature stabilized, warm up
time is fast.

1. INPUT'LOGIC COMPATIBILITY

terminal will open all switches. The VR,(ENABLE)
signal must be capable of rising to within O.8Vof
VINION) in the OFF state'and of sinking IR(ON)
milliamps in the ON state (at VIN(ON) - VR >
2.SV). The V R terminal can' be 'driven fr~m most
TTL and DTL gates.
.
,
3. DIFFE~ENTIAL INPUT CONSIDERATIONS:

A. Voltage Considerations
In general,. the AH0100 series is comp~tible with
most DTL, TTL, and RTL logic families, The ON·
input threshold is determined by the V BE of the
input transistor plus the V, of the diode in the
emitter leg: plus I x R 1, plus VR' ,At room
temperature and V R = OV, the nominal ON thres·
hold is: 0.7V+0.7V+0.2V,=.1 ,6V.Over temperature'
and manufacturing .tolerances, the threshold may
be as high as 2.SV and as low as 0.8V. The rules
for proper 'operation are:

. The differential switch driver is essentially a differ-,
ential amplifier. The input requirements for. proper
operation are:
IVIN1 - VIN21~ 0.3V
2.S -::; (V IN1 or VI~2):" V R -::; SV

VIN - V R ~ 2.SV All switches ON
VIN - V R ~ 0.8V All switches OFF

I~

.

l'he differential driver may be furnished by.a DC
level as shown below. l'he level mav"be derived
from Ii vo'itage divider to V+ or the 'SV Vee of
the DTL logic. In order to assure proper operation,
the divider should I;>e "sti,ff" with respect 'toIIN2'

Input Current Considerations

,~,

IINIONI, the current drawn by' the driver with
VIN -= 2.SV is typically 20 j.lA at 2SoC and is guar·
anteed less than 120 j.lA over temp~rature. 'DTL,
such as the DM930 series can supply 180 j.lA at
logic "1" voltages in excess of 2.SV. TTL output
levels are comparable at, 400 j.lA, The DTl and
TTL can drive the AH0100 series directly, However, at low temperature, DC noise m'argin in the
logic "1" state is eroded with DTL. A pull·up reo
sistor of 10 kS1 is recommended when using DTL
over military temperature range,

Alternatively, the differential driver may be driven
from a TTL,flip-flop or inverter.

If more than one driver is to be driven by a DM930

Connection 'of a 1 mA current source between V R
and V- will allow operation over a ± 1 OV common
mode range. Differential input voltage must be less
than the 6V breakdown. and input thnishold of'
2.SV and 300mV differential overdrive still prevail.

where:
Rp = value of the pull-up resistor in kS1
N = number of drivers.
C. Input Slew Rate
The slew rate of the'logic input must be'in excess
of 0.3V Ij.ls in order to ,assure proPer operation of
the analog switc,h. DTL, TTL. and' RTl output
rise times are far in excess,of the mir:>imum'slew
rate requirements. Discrete logic designs. however.
should include consideration of input' rise time.

2. ENABLE CONTROL

4. ANALOG VOLTAGE CONSIDERATIONS
The rules for operating the AH01 00 series at
supply voltages other than those specified essen·
tially breakdown into OFF and ON considerations.
The OFF considerations are dictated by the maxi·
mum negative swing of the analog signal and the
pinch off of the JFET switch. In the OFF state,
the gate of the FET is at V- + VSE + VSAT or
about 1.0V above the V- potential. The maximum
V p of the FET switches is 7V. The most negative
analog voltage, V A, sWll1g which can be accomo·
elated for any given supply voltage is:
IV A I~ Iv-I- V p

-

V A ~ V+ - 2.0V or V+ ::: V A + 2.0V
For the standard high level switches, V A = 122.0V = +10V.
5. SWITCHING TRANSIENTS
Due to charge stored in the gate·to·source and
gate·to·drain capacitances of the FET switch, tran·
sients may appear in the output during switching.
This is ·particularly true during the OFF to ON
transition. The magnitude and duration of the
transient may be minimized by making source
and load impedance levels as small as practical.

VSE - VSAT or

Iv AI~IV-I-8.0 or IV-I?IV AI+8.0V
For the standard high level switches, VA <1- 181
+8 c: -10V. The value for V+ is dictated-by the
maximum positive swing of the analog input volt-

age. Essentially the collector to base junction of
the turn·on PNP must remain reversed biased for
all positive value of analog input voltage. The base
of the PNP is at V+ - VSAT - VSE or V+ - 1.0V.
The PNP's collector base junction should have at
least 1.0V reverse bias. Hence, the most positive
analog voltage swing which may be accommodated
for a given value of V+ is:

Furthermore, transients may be minimized by
operating the switches in the differential mode;
i.e., the charge delivered to the load during the
ON to OF F transition is, to a large" extent, can·
celled by the· OF F to ON transition.

General Description
These devices combine N-channel junction FETs and
bipolar transistors on a single chip for the first time in a
new N-channel Bi-FET process_
'
This technology provides the in9ustry's ot;lly low "ON"
resistance, high speed, m'onolithic N-channel junction
FET analog switch. Unique circuit techniques are
employed to achieve break-before-make switching action
and constant "ON" resistance over the analog voltage
range. The switch can block 20V peak-to-peak signals,
and because of the driver design, an "OFF" isolation
greater than 60 dB is achieved at 10 MHz.

AM2009/AM200~C, MM4504/MM5504
6-Channel MOS Multiplex Switches
General Description
The AM2009/ AM2009C/MM4504/MM5504 are designed for applications such as time division multiplexing of analog or digital signals. Switching
speeds are primarly determined by conditions
external to the device ·s·uch as signal source impedance, capacitive loading and the total n'umber of
channels used in parallel.

The AM2009/ AM2009C/MM4504/MM5504 are six
channel multiplex switches constructed on a single
silicon chip using low threshold P-channel MOS
·process. The gate of each MOS device is protected
by a diode circuit.

Theory of Operation

·(AM97Cl01. open collector 15V TTL (AM97091. and
10-15V CMOS (AM97C09).

The AMIAH series of analog switches are primarily
intended for operation in current mode switch ·applica.
tions; i.e., the drains of the FET switch are held at or
near ground by operating into the summing junction of
an operational amplifier. Limiting the drain voltage to
under a few hundred millivolts eliminates the need for a
special gate driver, allOWing the switches to be driven
dir~ctlY by standard TTL (AM9710), 5V-l0V CMOS

Two basic s~itch configurations are available: multiple
independent switches (N by SPST) and multiple pole
switches used for multiplexing (NPST·MUX). The MUX
versions such as the AM9709 offer common drains and
include a series FET operated at VGS = OV. The addi·
tiona( FET is placed in feedback path in order to
compensate for the "ON" resistance of the switch FET
as shown in Figure 1.

both cases, t(OFF) is improved for lower values of R EXT
and the expense of power dissipation in the low state.

Two input logic drive versions of AM/AH series are
available: the even numbered. part types are specified·to
be driven from standard 5V-TTL logic and the odd
numbered types from 15V open collector TTL,.

The cost effective AM97C09 series of switches is
optimized for CMOS drive without resistor pull-up. The
AM97Cl0's and AM97C12's are specified for 5V-l0V
operation while the AM97C09's and AM97Cll's are
specified for 10V-15Voperation_
Definition of Terms
The terms referred to in the electrical characteristics
tables are as defined in Figure 6_

Likewise, the open-collector, high voltage TTL outputs
should use a pull-up resistor as shown in Figure 5. In

CMOS Compatibility

Standard TTL gates pull-up to about 3.5V (no load).
In order to ensure turn-off of the even numbered switches
such as AM9710, a pull-up resistor, REXT , of at least
10 kn should be placed between the 5V Vee and the
gate output as sho~n in Figure 4.

general description
CD4053BM/CD4053BC is a triple 2-channel multiplexer
having three separate digital control inputs, A, Band C,
and an inhibit input. Each control input selects one of a
pair of channels which are connected in a single~pole
dOUble-throw configuration.

These analog multiplexers/demultiplexers are digitally
controlled analog switches having low "ON" impedance
and very low "OFF" leakage currents. Control of analog
signals up to 15 Vp·p can be achieved by digital signal
amplitudes of 3 - 15 V. For example, if V DO ~ 5 V,
Vss; OV and VEE; -5V, analog signals from -5V to
+5V can be controlled by digital inputs of 0-5V. The
multiplexer circuits dissipate extremely low quiescent
power over the full V DD - Vss and V DD - VEE supply
voltage ranges, independent of the logic state of the
cO[ltrol signals. When a logical "1" is present at the
inhibit input terminal all channels are "OFF."

features
.. Wide range of digital and analog signal levels: digital
3-15V, analog to 15Vp-p
.. Low "ON" resistance: 80n (typ) over entire 15Vp-p
signal-input range for V DO - VEE; 15 V
.. High "OFF" resistance: channel leakage of ±10pA
(typ) at V DD - VEE = 10V

CD4051BM/CD4051BC is a single 8-channel multiplexer
having three binary control inputs, A, Band C, and an
inhibit input. The three binary signals 'select 1 of 8
channels to be turned "ON" and connect the input, to
the output.

II

Logic level conversion for digital addressing signals of
3-15V (V DD - Vss = 3-15V) to switch analog
signals to 15 Vp-p (V DD - VEE; 15 V)

.. Matched switch characteristics: Ll.RON ; 5 n (typ)
for V DD - VEE = 15V

CD4052BM/CD4052BC is a differential 4-channel multiplexer having two binary control inputs, A and B, and an
inhibit input. The two binary input signals select 1 of 4
pairs of channels to be turned on and connect the
differential analog inputs to the differential outputs.

.. Very low quiescent power dissipation under all
digital-control input and supply conditions: 11lW
(typ) at V DD - Vss; V DD - VEE; 10V
.. Binary address decoding on chip

special considerations

o.a

I n certain applications the external load-resistor current
may include both V DD and signal-line components. To
avoid drawing V DO current when switch current flows
into IN/OUT pin, the voltage drop across the bidirec·

tiona) switch must not exceed
V at T A " 25°C, or
0.4 V atT A> 25°C (calculated from RON values shown).
No V DO current will flow through R L if the switch
current flows into OUT/IN pin.

CD4066BM/CD4066BC Quad Bilateral Switch
general description
The CD4066BM/CD4066BC is a quad bilateral switch
intended for the transmission or multiplexing of analog
or digital signals. It is pin-for-pin compatible with
CD4016BM/CD4016BC, but has a much lower "ON"
resistance, and "ON" resistance is relatively constant
over the input-signal range.

special considera.tions
In applications where separate power sources are used
to drive VOO and the signal input, the VOO current
capability should exceed VOO/RL (RL = effective
external load of the 4 C04066BMlC04066BCbiiaterai
switches). This provision avoids any permanent current
flow or clamp actiori on the VOO supply when power is
applied or removed from C04066BM/C04066BC.

avoid drawing VOO current when switch current flows
into terminals 1, 4, 8 or 11, the voltage drop across the
bidirectional switch must not exceed 0.6V at T A::::; 25°C,
or O.4V at T A > 25°C (calculatec;l from RON values
shown).
No VOO current will flow through RL if the switch
current flows into terminals 2, 3, 9 or 10_

In certain applications, the external load-resistor current
may include both VOO and signal-line components. To

CD4529BM/CD4529BC Dual 4-Channel or
Single a-Channel Analog Data Selector
General 'Description

Features

The CD4529B is a dual 4-channel or a single 8-channel
analog data selector, implemented with complementary
MOS (CMOS) circuits constructed with Nand P-channel
'enhancement mode transistors_ Dual 4-channel or 8channel mode operation is selected by proper input
coding, with outputs Z and W tied together for the single
8-bit mode. The device is suitable for digital as weil
as analog applications, including various 1-of-4 and
1-of-8 data selector functions_ Since the device is analog
and bidirectional, it can also be used for dual binary to
1-of-4 or single binary to 1-of-8 decoder applications.

3.0V to 15V
• Wide supply voltage range

general description
These devices are a monolithic combination of bipolar
and JFET technology producing the industry's first
one chip quad JFET switch. A unique circuit technique
is employed to maintain a constant resistance over the
analog voltage range of ±1 OV. The input is designed to
operate from minimum TTL levels, and switch operation
also ensures a break·before·make action.

GENERAL INFORMATION

LEAKAGE CURRENTS

These devices are monolithic quad JFET analog switches
with "ON" resistances which are essentially independent
of analog voltage or analog current. The leakage currents
are typically less than 1 nA at 25°C in both the "OFF"
and "ON" switch states and introduce negligible errors
in most applications. Each switch is controlled by mini·
mum TTL logic levels at its input and is designed to turn
"OFF" faster than it will turn "ON." This prevents two
analog sources from being transiently connected together
during switching. The switches were designed for appli·
cations which require break-before-make action, no
analog current loss, medium speed switching times and
moderate analog currents.

The drain and source leakage currents, in both the ON
and the OF F states of each switch, are typically less than
1 nA at 25°C and less tilan 100 nA at 125°C. As shown
in the typical curves, these leakage currents are dependent on power supply voltages, analog voltage, analog current and the source to drain voltage.

II

DELAY TIMES

OW

The delay time OFF (tOFF) is essentially independent of
both the analog voltage and temperature. The delay time
ON (tON) will decrease as either (Vce - VA) decreases
or the temperature decreases.

CJ)I

POWER SUPPLIES
The voltage between the positive supply (Ved and
either the negative supply (VEE) or the reference supply
(V R ) can be as much as 36V. To accommodate variations in input logic reference voltages, V R can range
from VEE to (Vee - 4.5V). Care should be taken to
ensure that the power supply leads for the device never
become reversed in polarity or that the device is never
inadvertantly installed backwards in a test socket. If one
of these conditions occurs, the supplies would zener an
interal' diode to an unlimited current; and result in a
destroyed device.

Because these analog switches are JFET rather than
CMOS, they do not require special handling.
LOGIC INPUTS
The logic input (IN), of each switch, is referenced to two
forward diode drops (1.4V at 25°C) from the reference
supply (V R) which makes it compatible with DTL, RTL,
and TTL logic families. For normal operation, the logic
"0" voltage can range from 0.8V to -4.0V with respect
to V R and the logic "1" voltage can range from 2.0V to
6.0V with respect to V R, provided V IN is not greater
than (Vee - 2.5V). If the input voltage is greater than
(Vee - 2.5VI. the input current will increase. If the
input voltage exceeds 6.0V or -4.0V with respect to
V R, a resistor in series with the input should be used to
limit the input current to less than 1 DOpA.

SWITCHING TRANSIENTS
When a switch is turned OFF or ON, transients will
appear at the load due to the internal transient voltage at
the gate of the switch JFET being coupled to the drain
and source by the junction capacitances of the JFET.
The magnitude of these transients is dependent on the
load. A lower value RL produces a lower transient volt·
age. A negative transient occurs during the delay time
ON, while a positive transient occurs during the delay
time OFF. These transients are relatively small when
compared to faster switch families.

ANALOG VOLTAGE AND CURRENT
Analog Voltage
Each switch has a constant "ON" resistance (RON) for
analog voltages from. (VEE + 5V) to (Vee - 5V). For
analog voltages greater than (Vee - 5V), the switch will
remain ON independent of the logic input voltage. For
analog voltages less than (VEE + 5V), the ON resistance
of the switch will increase. Although the switch will not
operate normally when the analog voltage is out of the
previously mentioned range, the source voltage can go to
either (VEE + 36V) or (Vee + 6V), whichever is more
positive, and'can go as negative as VEE without destruction. The drain (D) voltage can also go to either
(VEE + 36V) or (Vee + 6VI. whichever is more positive, and can go as negative as (Vee - 36V) without
destruction.

DISABLE NODE,
This node can be used, as shown in Figure 5, to turn all
the switches in the unit off independent of logic inputs.
Normally, the node floats freely at an internal diode
drop ("" 0.7V) above V R' When the external transistor in
Figure 5 is saturated, the node is pulled very close to V R
and the unit is disabled. Typically, the current from the
node will be less than 1 mAo This feature is not available on the LFl1201 or LFl1202 series.

r----I
I

Analog Current
With the source (S) positive with respect to the drain
(DI. the RON is constant for low analog currents" but
will increase at higher currents (>5 mAl when the FET
enters the saturation region. However, if the drain is
positive with respect to the source and a small analog
current IQsS at high analog currents (Note 6) is tolerable,
a low RON can be maintained for analog currents greater
than 5 mA at 25°C.

BI-FET Technology

general description
The LF11508/LF12508/LF13508 is an 8-channel
analog multiplexer which connects the output to 1 of
the 8 analog inputs depending on the state of a 3-bit
binary address_ An enable control allows disconnecting
the output, thereby providing a package select function_

connect a pair of independent analog inputs to one of
any 4 pairs of independent analog outputs_ The device
has all the features of the LF 11508 series and should be
used whenever differential analog inputs are required_

features
This device is fabricated with National's 81-FET technology . which provides ion-implanted JFETs for the
analog switch on the same chip as the bipolar decode
and switch drive circuitry_ This technology makes
possible low constant "ON" resistance with analog
input voltage variations_ This device does not suffer
from latch-up problems or static charge blow-out
problems associated with similar CMOS parts. The
digital inputs are designed to operate from both TTL
and CMOS levels while always providing a definite
break-before-make action.

general description

features

The LF198/LF298/LF398 are monolithic sample and
hold circuits which utilize BI-FET technology to obtain
ultra-high dc accuracy with fast acquisition of signal and
low droop rate_. Operating as a unity gain follower, dc
gain accuracy is .0.002% typical and acquisition time is
as low as 6J.1s to 0.01 %. A bipolar input stage is used to
achieve low offset voltage and wide bandwidth. Input
offset adjust is accomplished with a single pin and do~s
not degrade input offset drift. The wide bandwidth
allows the LF 198 to be included inside the feedback
loop of 1 MHz op amps without having stability
problems. Input impedance of 10 10 n allows high
source impedances to be used without degrading
accuracy.

L,ogic inputs on the LF198 are fully differential with
low input current, allowing direct connection to TTL,
PMOS, and CMOS. Differential threshold is l.4V. The
LF198 will operate from ±5V to ±18V supplies. It is
available in an 8-lead TO-5 package.

• TTL, PMOS, CMOS compatible logic input

P-channel junction FET's are combined with bipolar
devices in the output amplifier to give droop rates as
low as 5 mV /min with a lJ.1F hold capacitor. The JFET's
have much lower noise than MOS devices used in previous 'designs and do not exhibit high temperature
instabilities. The overall design guarantees no feedthrough from input to output in the hold mode even
for input signals equal to the supply voltages.

Note 1: The maximum juncti,on temp~rature of the LF198 is 150°C, for the LF298, 115°C, and for the LF398, 100°C, W'hen operating at
elevated ambient temperature, the TO-5 package must be derated based on a thermal resistance (GljA)'of 150°CIW,
Note 2: Although the differential voltage may not exceed the limits given, the common-mode voltage on the logic pins may be equal to the
supply voltages without causing damage to the circuit. For proper logic operation, however, one of the logic pins must always be at least 2V below
the positive supply and 3V above the negative supply,

Ch = 0.01"F, and RL = 10 kn, Logic reference voltage = OVand logic voltage = 2,5V,

Nota 4: Hold step is sensitive to stray capacitive coupling between input logic signals and the hold capacitor. 1 pF, for instance, will create an
additional 0,5 mV step with a 5V logic swing al'd a O,01"F hold capacitor, Magnitude of the hold step is inversely proportional to hold capaci-

'

Nota 5: Leakage current is measured at a junction temperature of 2SoC. The effects of junction temperature rise due to power dissipation or
elevated ambient can be calculated by doubling the 25°C value for each 11°C increase in chip temperature. Leakage is guaranteed over full input
signal range.
Note 6: These parameters guaranteed over a supply voltage range of ±5 to ±18V.

Hold Capacitor
'Hold step, acquisition time., and droop rate' are the
:major' trade-effs' in the ~election of a hold capacitor
'value_ Size and, cost may also become impor;tant for,
larger values.: Use of the curves included with this data,
sheet should be helpful in ,sele~ting a reasonable value
,of ,capacitance .• K;eep in mlnd'that for fast repetition'
,rates or tracking fast signals, the capacitor drive currents
may cause a si,gnificant temperature rise in the, !-F 198:
, A significant source of error in an accurate sample and
hold circuit is dielectric absorption in the hold capacitor.
A -mylar cap, 'for instance, may "sag back" up to 0.2%
after a quick change in voltage. A long "soak" time is
required before the circuit can be put back into the
hold mode with this type of capacitor. Dielectr.ics with, '
very low hysteresis "are polystyrene, polypropylene, and
Teflon; ,Other types such as mica and polycarbonate
, are not 'nearly as good. ee'ramic is unu,sable with> 1%
,hysteresis. The advantage of polypropylene ,over, poly., styrene is that it extends the maximum ambient tempera, tuni from 85° C to 100° C,' For more exact data, see t~e
curve labeled'dielectric absorpti~n error vs 'sam'ple time.,
,The 'hysteresis numbers' on the curve are final values,
taklln after full relaxation, The hysteresis error can be, '
,significantly reduced if the output of the Lf 198 is
digitized quickly after the 'hold mode is initiated. The
hysteresis relaxation time constant in polypropylene,
for instance, is 10-50 ms. If -A-to-D conversion can be
made 'within 1 ms, hysteresis error will be reduced by a
factor of ten.

differential for fast moving signals. In addition, although
the output may have settl~d, the hold capacitor has an
additional lag due to the 300n series resistor on the chip.
This mean's that at the moment the '~hold" command
arrives, the' hold capacitor voltage may be somewhat
different than the actual' analog input. The effect of '
, ,these delays is opposite to the effect created by delays
in the logic which switches the circuit from sample to
'hold. For example, consider an analog ,input of 20 VP-,P
ail0 kHz: Maximum dV/dt,is 0.6 VIps. With,no,analog
phase delay and 100 ns' iogic delay, oile could expect
up to (0.1I-1s)(0.6V/l-ls) = 60 mV error if the "hold"
signal arrived near maximum dV Idt of the input. A
positive-going input would give a ±60 mV error. Now
assume a 1 MHz (3 dB) bandwidth for the overall analog
loop. This generates a phase delay of 160 ns. If the hold
capacitor sees this exact delay, then error due to analog
delay will 'be (0.16I-1s)(0.6 V/l-ls) = -96 mV.'Total output error is +60 mV (digital) -96 mV (analog) for a
total of -36 mV. To add to the confusion, analog delay
is proportional to hold capacitQr value while digital
delay remains constant. A family of curves (dynamic
sampling: error) is included to help estimate e~rors.
A curve labeled' Aperture Time has been included for,
sampling conditions where, the, input is steady during
the ,Sampling period, but may experience a sudden
change nearly coincident with the "hold" command.
This curve is based on a 1 mV error fed into the output.
A second curve, Hold Settling Time indicat~s the time
required for the output to settle to 1 m V after the
"hold" command.

'DC zeroing is accomplished by connecting the offset

Fast rise time logic signals can cause hold errors by
feeding externally into'the analog input at the same
time the amplifier is put into 'the hold mode. To ,minimize this problem, boar!Jlayounliould keep logic lines
as far as possible from the analog inp!!t. Grounded
guarding traces may also be used around the input
line, especially if it is driven from a high impedance
source. Reducing high amplituda Ipgic signals to 2.5V
will also help.

For proper"bp'eration,'logic signals into the LF198 must

general description
The LH0023/LH0023C and LH0043/LH0043C
are complete sample and hold circuits including
input buffer amplifier, f;ET output amplifier,
analog signal sampling gate! TTL compatible logic
circuitry and level shifting. They are designed to
9perate from standard ±15V DC supplies, but
provision is made on the LH0023/LH0023C for
connection of a separate +5V logic supply in
minimum noise applications. The principal difference betwjlen the LH0023/LH0023C and the
LH0043/LH0043C is a 10: 1 trade-off in performance on sample accuracy vs sample acquisition
time. Devices are pin compatible except that TTL
logic is inverted between the two types.

hold applications. including data acquisition,
analog to digital conversion, synchronous demodulation, and automatic test setup. They offer
significant cost and size reduction over equivalent
module or discrete designs. Each device is available
in a hermetic TO-8 package and are completely
specified over both full military and instrument
temperature ranges.
The LH0023 and LH0043 are specified for opera·
tion· over the _55°C to +125°C military temperature rang~. The LH0023C ~nd LH0043C are
specified for operation ove~ the _25°C to +85°C
temperature range.

The LH0023/LH0023C and LH0043/LH0043C
are ideally suited for a wide variety of sample and

4.0 Switching Spike Minimization-LH0043
A capacitive divider is formed by the' storage
capacitor and the capacitance of the internal F ET
switch which causes a small error current to be
injected into the storage capacitor at'the termination of the sample interval. This can be considered
a negative DC offset and nulled out as described in
(3.0), or the transient may be nulled by coupling
an equal but opposite signal to. the storage
capacitor. This may be accamplished by.connecting a capacitor af about 30 pF (or a trimmer)
between the logic input (pin 6) and the storage
capacitor (pin 1). Note that this capacitor must be
chosen as carefully as the storage capaCitor itself

10 mV Isec would require a 0.01 MF capacitar.
Far values af Cs up to 0.01 MF the acquisition
time is limited by the slew rate af the input buffer
amplifier, A 1, typically. 0.5 VIMs. Beyond, this
point, current availability to charge Cs also. enters
the picture. The acquisition time is given by:

Decoupling pin 8 to ground through 0.1 MF disc'
capacitor is reco.mmended in order to minimize
transients in the output.

Provision is made to null both the LH0023 and

the "hold" mode (Va = 2.0V), Sl is open~d
isolating the storage capacitor from the input and
leaving it charged to a voltage equal to the last
,!nalog input voltage before entering the hold
mode. The storage capacitor voltage is brought to
the output by low leakage amplifier A2.

TTL to MOS level translator, and output buffer
amplifier, A2. In the "sample" mode, the logic
input is raised to logic "1" (Va ~ 2.0V) which
closes Sl and opens S2. Storage capacitor, CS, is
charged to the input voltage through Sl and the
output slews to the input voltage. In the "hold"
mode, the logic input is lowered to logic "0"
(Va ~ 0.8V) opening Sl and closing S2. Cs
retains the sample voltage which is applied to the
output via A2. Since Sl is open, the input signal
is ov.erridden, and leakage across the MOS switch is
therefore minimized. With 81 open, drift is prima·
rily determined by input bias current of A2,
typically 100 pA at 25°C.

SOURCE IMPEDANCE COMPENSATION

The drift is' dictated by leakag'e current at pin 5
and is given by:

The gain accuracy (linearity') of the LH0053!
LH0053C is set by two internal precision resistors.
Circuit applications in which the source impedance
is non-zero will result in a closed loop gain error,
e.g. if Rs' = lOn, a gain error of 0.1% results.
. Figure 1 and 2'show methods for accommodating
non-zero source impedance.

dt
CF
Where, IL is the leakage current at pin 5 and CF
is the value of the capacitance. Th.e room temperature leakage of the LH0053 is typical 6.0 pA, and
a 1000 pF capacitor will yield a drift rate of
6.0 mV per second.

DRIFT ERROR MINIMIZATION

For values of CF below 1,000 pF a~quisition fpr
the LH0053 is primarily gover'ned by the' slew
rate of th~, input amplifier (20V!IlS) and the
setting time of output amplifier (~ 1.0lls). For
values above CF = 1000 pF, acquisition time is
given by:

.

The LH0053 Gate inputs Gate 1 (pin 6) and Gate
2 (pin 7) will interface directly with 5.0V TTL.
However, TTL gates typically pull up to 2.5V in
the logic '"1''' state. It is therefore advisable to
. use a 10k ·pull·up resistor between the 5.0V, Vee,
and the output of the gate as shown in Figure 3.
To .obtain the highest speed and fastest acquisi·
tion time, the gate' drive shown in Figure 6 is
recommended.

FIGURE 4. CMOS Logic Compatibility

The LH0053 gate inputs may be interfaced directly
with 74C, CMOS operating off of Vee's from
5.0V to 15V. However transient currents of
several milliamps can flow on the rising and
f~lIing edges of the input signal. It is, therefore,
advisable to parallel the outputs of two 54C174C
gates as shown in Figure 4.

HEAT SINKING
The LH0053 may be operated over the military
temperature range, -55°C to +125°C, without
incurring damage to the device. However,. a clip
on heat sink such as the Wakefield 215 Series or
Thermolloy 2240 will reduce the internal tempera·
ture rise by about 20°C. The result is a two·fold
improvement in drift rate at temperature.

It should be noted that leakage at pin 5 in the
hold mode will be increased by a factor of 2 to 3
when operating into 15V logic levels.

general description
The LF152 series is the first monolithic JFET input
instrumentation amplifier. The well·matched high voltage
JFET input devices provide very high input impedance
and extremely low bias currents, making the LF 152
ideal in applications where high source impedances
are encountered.

accurate because it has a very low initial gain error and
non-linearity. The bandwidth and slew rate are externally
controlled and the sense input and device output are
pinned out separately for added versatility.

The LF152 very accurately amplifies a differential
input.signal and rejects common·mode signal and noise.
It is not an op amp, but operates with an internal
closed loop gain connection which allows good linearity
with no external feedback. The LF 152 eliminates the
need for extremely precise resistor matching to obtain
high common-mode rejection (CMR) and provides high
input impedance as compared to the use of conventional
op amps connected as a difference amplifier.

The LF 152 utilizes internal differential current feedback
eliminating the need for precision external feedback
components. The amplifier gain can be easily adjusted
from 1 to 1000 by changing the value of a single resistor. The transfer function for the LF 152 is highly

BASIC OPERATION
The lF152 is. a monolithic JFET input differential
current feedback instrumentation amplifier. The BIFET process used to fabricate the LF152 makes it
possible to· ta~e advantage of JF ETs throughout the
design_ In the simplified schematic of Figure 1, the
differential input voltage is impressed across resistor
RG via the input JFETs, while the difference between
the sense and reference voltages is impressed across
the resistor RS. The gain of the amplifier is determined
by the ratio of resistor RS to resistor RG (G = RS/RG).
(For clarity let's follow a signal through the amplifier:)

common·mode rejection, low gain non-linearity,
extremely low bias currents and very high,· input
impedance.
INPUTS,
The P-channel JFET input devices of the LF152 series
provide very low bias currents and very high input
impedances.
The maximum differential input voltage is independent
of the supply' voltages, however, neither of the input
voltages should be allowed to exceed the negative supply,
as this will cause large currents to floiN, which can 'result
in a destroyed unit.
'

In Figure 1, let RG = RS = 1 Mr!, the (-) input be
grounded, and the (+) input be 1 V; the output should
be 1 V. The 1 V signal applied developes lilA through
RG from right to left and unbalances the current drive
to the second stage amplifier. The additional current
driven into the (+) input of the second stage amplifier
causes the output to increase. As Va increases, the
sense input voltage increases and the left side of RS
also increases. When the sense input has risen lV, lilA
will flow through RS from lilft to right and, thus, subtract lilA from I,. An opposite action simultaneously
occurs in 12 which brings the currents into the second
stage and thus the system back into balance.

Exceeding the negative voltage range on either input
cause a reversal of phase to the output and force
the amplifier output to. the corresponding high or
low state. Exceeding the negative input voltage range
on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a high
state. Exceeding the positive input voltage range on a
single input will not change the phase of the output;
however, gail) linearity will degrade. If both inputs
exceed the positive input voltage range, .the output of
the amplifier will be forced to a high state.
~ill

The common-mode slew rate of the inputs should be
'limited to 5V IllS to insure low input bias currents.

The LF 152 series is designed to optimize key parameters
in instrumentation amplifiers: The device has very high

independent of gain while the input offset (Vias) is
multiplied by the, gai~ of the amplifier to the output.

The sense input and the output cif the device are pinned
out separately to allow increased flexibility in system
designs (see' applications). The reference input allows
biasing of the output voltage, from +10V to --10V.
The ac input resistance of both the sense and reference
inputs is unusually high because their input currents are
forced to be constant with voltage (typically 20j.lA).

Vas = Vias (G)

+ VOOS

The output offset of the Lf 152 can' be adjusted as
shown in Figure 2. In addition" the LF152 features
input offset adjust which is not common to monolithic
instrumentation amplifiers and is normally available
only on expensive modules. The simple adjust scheme
shown in Figure 5 has only a slight increase in non-linearity compared to that of Figure 4 and is recommended
for most applications. Nulling both input and output
offset makes the overall' offset zero, independent of gain.

The maximum linear output swing is determined by
the magnitude of resistor RS:
1VOMAXI= 10j.lA (RS)

The output offset is affected by adjustment of the
input offset. For every mV of input offset adjust, the
output offset will' change by approximately 32 mV.
Adjustment of the output offset has no effect on the
input offset, so it should always be done last.

If the output of the amplifier is to be abruptly changed
more than 6V, a PNP transistor should be connected,
as shown in Figure 3, to prevent the slew rate of the
output from exceeding the slew rate of the sense stage.
If this precaution is not taken;the base-emitter junction
of the input transistor in the sense stage will transiently
break down and its (3 will degrade, resulting in a permanent negative' shift in output of,fset voltage.

.!......-.....-o

,')I-'

Offset adjustment changes the temperature coefficient
of the Vas drift. The typical i'nput offset drift of the
unadjusted device is '-10j.lVtC. If ~he input offset is
adjusted, the "105 drift in:creases' by approximately

Vias drift"" -10j.lVioC + 2j.lVtC/(mV of adjustment)

OUTPUT

The VOOS drift will be improved by output offset
adjust because the magnitudes of the 'current sources
adjusted become less sensitive to VBE variations. If
VOOS adjust is not used, pins 1, 2 and 16 must be
shorted to the positive supply for Circuit operation.

VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

FIGURE 3. Large Signal Transient Suppression

For gains less than 100, only output offset,adjustment is
needed. For gains greater than 100, input'offset adjust is
usually necessary since'the input offset voltage amplified
to the output may be out of the range of the output
offse~ adjust. Input offset adjust is also needed if zero
overall offset is desired while varying 'the amplifier gain.

OFFSET VOLTAGE
Because of the two stage design of the instrumentation
amplifier, there are two independent contributors to
offset voltage (Vas). The output offset (VOOS) is

RS and RG should be minimized and the capacitance
from these nodes should also be minimi1.ed for optimum
frequency response. If RC = 160n and Cc = 0.002j.!F in
the printed circuit board of Figure 7, the amplifier will
be compensated for all gains ,from 1 to 1000. Gains
from 0.1 to 10,000 may be obtained with different
compensation.

To adjust the input offset, the following procedure
should be used:
The effective input offset voltage appears directly
across RG when both inputs are connected to ground,
and can be measured by a voltmeter referenced to
ground. This offset error across RG can be zeroed by
the input offset adjustment circuit 'shown in Figure 4
or 5. The remaining error at the output is strictly due
to the output offset voltage which can then be nulled
out with the circuit shown in Figure 2. The amplifier
is now offset nulled independent of gain.

GAIN ERROR AND NONLINEARITY

Gain error of the LF 152 is the error between the average
slope of. the transfer function compared to the slope of
RS/RG. In the LF 152, the small gain error is essentially
constant with gain and may be nulled out by trim·
ming RS.

COMPENSATION

The variable bandwidth and slew rate of the LF152 are
controlled by an RC network betw~en the co~pensa·
tion pins of the amplifier as shown in Figure 2. RC and
Cc may be varied for optimum operating characteristics
in a particular application.

Of the existing monolithic instrumentation amplifiers,
the LF152 is among the lowest in gain nonlinearity
error. Gain nonlinearity is the curvature of the transfer
function from the th~oretically perfect function as shown
,
in Figure 6 . '

and VOS. IS and lOS are measured at VCM = O.
Note 4: The Temperature Coefficient of the adjusted input offset voltage changes only a small amount (O.5p.V JQe tYr,lically) for each mV of
adjustment from its oli9inal unadjusted value. Common-mode rejection and apen loop voltage gain are also unaffected by offset adjustment •

Note 5: The input bias currents are junction leakage currents which,approximately d?uble for every 10°C increase in the junction temperature, TJ.
Due to limited production test time, the input bias curren.ts measured are correlated to junction temperature, In normal operation the junction
temperature rises above the ambient temperature as a result of internal power dissipation, Pd. Tj = T A + 0jA Pd where 0jA is the thermal
resistance from junction to ambient. Use of a heat sink is recommended if input bias current is to be kept to a minimum .
Note 6: Supply Voltage Rejection is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or decreasing simultaneously, in accordance with common
practice.
Note 7: Settling time is defined here, for a unity gain inverter connection using 2 kn resistors for the LF155/6. It is the time required for the error
voltage (the voltage at the inverting input pin on the amplifier) to'settle to within 0.01 % of its final value 'from the time a 10V step input is applied
to the inverter. For the LF157, AV = -5, the feedback resistor from output to input is 2 kH and the outputt step is 10V (See Settling Time Test
Circuit, page 9).

Application Hints
The LF155/6/7 series are op amps with JFET input
devices. These' JFETs have large reverse breakdown
voltages 'from gate to source and drain eliminating the
need for' ~Iamps' across the inputs. Therefore large
differential input voltages can easily be accomodated
without ~ large increase in input current. The maximum
differential input voltage is independent of the supply
voltages. However, neither of the ',input voltages should
be allowed to exceec\ the negative supply as this will
cause large currents to flow, which can result in a
destroyed' unit.

in polarity or that the unit is not inadvertently installed
"backwards in 'a socket as an unlimited current" surge
through the resulting forward diode within the 'IC could
cause fusing of the internal conductors and result in a
destroyed unit.
Because these amplifiers are JFET rather than MOSFET
input op amps they do not require special handling.
All of the bias currents in these amplifiers 'are, set by FET
current sources. The drain currents for the amplifiers are
therefore ,essentially independet1t of supply voltage.

Exceeding the negative c~mmon'mode limit 'on'either
input will ,cause a reversal of the phase to the output
and force the amplifier output to the corresponding
high or low state. Exceeding the negative common·mode
limit on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a
high state. In neither case does a latch occur since
raising the input back within the common-mode range
again puts the input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal operating mode.

As with most amplifiers, care should be taken with lead
dress, component placement and supply decoupling in
order to ensure stability. For example,'resistors from the
output to an input should be placed with the body 'close
to the input to minimize "pickup" and maximize the
frequency of the feedback p~le 'by minimizing the
capacitance from the input to ground.

Exceeding the positive common-mode limit on a single
input will not change the phase of the output however,
if both inputs exceed the limit, the output of the
amplifier will be forced to a high state.

A feedback pole is created when the feedback around
any amplifier is resistive. The parallel resistance and
capacitance from the input of the device, (usually the
inverting dnput) to ac grou(1d set the frequency of the
pole. In many instances the frequency of this pole is
much greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed loop gain and consequently there is negligible
effect on stability margin. However, if the feedback pole
is less than approximately six times the expected 3 dB
frequency a lead capacitor should be placed from the
output to the input of the op amp. The value of the
added capacitor should be such' that the RC time
constant of this capacitor and the resistanc~ it parallels
is greater than or equal to. the original feedback pole
time constant.

These amplifiers will operate with the common-mode
input voltage "equal to the positive supply. In fact: the
common-mode voltage can exceed the positive supply by
approximately 100 mV independent of supply voltage
and over the full operating temperature range. The
positive supply can therefore be used as a reference on
an input as; for example, in a supply current monitor
and/or limiter.
'
Precautions should be taken to ensure that the power
supply for the integrated circuit never becomes reversed

LF347 Wide Bandwidth Quad JFET
Input Operational Amplifier
General Description

Features'

The LF347 is a low cost, high speed quad JFET input
operational amplifier with an internally trimmed input
offset voltage (BI-FET "TM technology). The device
requires a low supply current and yet maintains a large
gain bandwidth product and a fast slew rate. In addition',
we" matched high voltage JFET inP!Jt devices provide
very low, input bias and offset currents. The lF347 is
pin compatible with the standard LM348. This feature
allows designers to immediately upgrade the overall
performance of existing LF348 and LM324, d~signs.

Note 1: For operating at elevated temperature, the device must be derated based on a thermal resistance of 1250 e/W junction to ambient or
95°CIW junction to case.
Nota 2: Unless otherwise specified the absolute maximum negative input voltage is equal to the negative power supply voltage.
Note 3: Po max rating cannot be exceeded.

Note 4: These specifications apply for VS = ±15V and O· C ~ T A ~ +70° C. VOS. I B and lOS are measured at VCM = O.
Note 5: The input bias currents are junction leakage currents which apprqximately double for every Hfc increase in the junction temperature, Tj.
Due to limited production test time, the input -bias currents measured Bre correlated to junction temperature. In normal operation the junction
temperature'rises above the ambient temperature as a result of internal power dissipation, PO. Tj = T A + 9jA Po where 8jA is the ther~al resistance from junction to ambient. Use of a heat sink is recommended if input bias current is to be kept to a minimum.
Note 6: Supply voltage rejection ratio' is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or decreasing simultaneously in accordance with common practice.

Application Hints
The LF347 is an op amp with an internally trimmed
input offset voltage andJFETinputdevices(BI-FET II™).
These JFETs have large reverse breakdown voltages from
gate to source and drain eliminating the need for clamps
across the inputs. Therefore, large differential input
voltages can easily be accommodated without a large
increase in input current. The maximum differential
input voltage is independent of the supply voltages.
However, neither of the input voltages should be

allowed to' exceed the negative supply as this will cause
large currents to flow which can result in a destroyed
unit.
Exceeding the negative common·mode limit on either
input will cause a reversal of the phase to the output
and force the amplifier output to the corresponding
high or low state. Exceeding the negative common·mode'
limit on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a

9·28

Application Hints

(Continued)

high state. In neither case does a latch occur since
raising the input back within the common·mode range
again puts the input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal operating mode.

backwards in a socket as an unlimited current surge
through the resulting forward diode within the IC could
cause fusing of the internal conductors and result in a
destroyed unit.

Exceeding the positive common·mode limit on a single
input will not change the phase of the output; however,
if both inputs exceed the limit, the output of the amplifier will be forced to a high state.

Because these aniplifiers :are JFET rather than MOSFET
input op amps they do not require· .special handling.
As with most amplifiers, care should be taken with lead
dress, component placement and supply decoupling in
order to ensure stability. For example, resistors from the
output to an input should be placed with the body close
to the input to minimize "pick-up" and maximize the
frequency of the feedback pole by minimizing the
capacitance from the input to ground.

The amplifiers will operate with a common-mode input
voltage equal to the positive supply; however, the gain
bandwidth and slew rate may be decreased in this condition. When the negative common-mode voltage swings
to within 3V of the negative supply, an increase in input
offset voltage may occur.
Each amplifier is individually biased by a zener reference
which allows normal circuit operation on ±4V power'
supplies. Supply voltages less than these may result in
lower gain bandwidth and slew rate.
The LF347 will drive a 2 kU load resistance to ±10V
over the full temperature range of O°C to +70°C. If the
amplifier is forced to drive heavier load currents, however, an increase in input offset voltage may occur on
the negative voltage swing and finally reach an active
current limit on both positive and negative swings.
Precautions should be taken to ensure that the power,
supply for the integrated circuit never becomes reversed
in polarity or that the unit is not inadvertently installed

A feedback pole is created when the feedback around
any amplifier 'is resistive. The parallel resistance and
capacitance from the input of the device '(usually the
inverting input) to AC ground set the frequency of the
pole. In many instances the frequency of this pole is
much greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed loop gain and consequently' ther~ is negligible
,effect on stability margin. However, if the feedback
pole is less than approximately 6 times the expected
j dB frequency a lead capacitor should be placed from
the output to the input of the op amp. The value of the
added capacitor should be such that the RC time constant of this capacitor and the ,resistance it parallels
is greater than or equal to the original feedback pole
time constant.

recommended. If maximum supply current is important,
however, the.LF351 is the better choice.

The LF351 is a low cost high speed JFET input opera·
tional amplifier with an internally trimmed input offset
voltage (BI·FET IITM technology). The device requires a
low supply current and yet maintains a large gain band·
. width product and a fast slew rate. In addition, well
matched high voltage JFET input devices provide very
low input bias and offset currents. The LF351 is pin
compatible with the standard LM741 and uses the same
offset voltage adjustment circuitry. This feature allows
designers to immediately upgrade. the overall perfor·
mance of existing LM741 designs.

Application Hints
The LF351 is an op amp with an internally trimmed
input offset voltage and JFETinputdevices (BI-FET II™).
These JFET$ have large reverse breakdown voltages from
gate to source and drain eliminating the need for clamps
across the inputs. Therefore, large differential input
voltages can easily be accommodated without a large
increase in input current. The maximum differential
input voltage is independent of the supply voltages.
However, neither of the input voltages should be

allowed to exceed the negative supply as this will cause
large currents to flow which can result in a destroyed
unit.
Exceeding the negative common-mode limit on either
input will cause a reversal of the phase to the output
and force the amplifier output to the corresponding
high or low state. Exceeding the negative common-mode
limit on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a

9·36

Application Hints

r(Continued)

high state. In neither case does a latch occur since
raising the input back within the common·mode range
again puts the 'input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal operating mode.

backwards in a socket as an unlimited current surge
through the resulting forward diode within the IC could
cause fusing of the internal conductors and result in a
destroyed unit.

Exceeding the positive common·mode limit on a single
input will not change the phase of the output; however,
if both inputs exceed the limit, the output of the ampli·
fier will be forced to a high state.

Because these amplifiers are JFET rather than MOSFET
input op amps they do not require special handling.
As with most amplifiers, care 'should be taken with lead
dress, component placement and supply decoupling in
order to ensure stability. For example, resistors from the
output to an input should be placed with the body close
to the input to minimize "pick·up" and maximize the
frequency of the feedback pole by minimizing the
capacitance from the input to ground.

The amplifier will operate with a common·mode input
voltage equal to the positive supply; however, the gain
bandwidth and slew rate may be decreased in this condi·
tion. When the negative common·mode voltage swings
to within 3V of the negative supply, an increase in input
offset voltage may occur.

A feedback pole is created when the feedback around
any amplifier is resistive. The parallel resistance and
capacitance 'from the input of the device (usually the
inverting input) to AC ground set the frequency of the
pole. In many instances the frequency of this pole is
much greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed loop gain and consequently there is negligible
effect on stability margin. However, if the feedback
pole is less than approximately 6 times the expected
3 dB frequency a lead capacitor should be placed from
the output to the input of the op amp. The value of the
allded capacitor should be such that the RC time can·
stant of this capacitor and the resistance it parallels
is greater than or equal to the original feedback pole
time constant.

The LF351 is biased by a zener reference which allows
normal circuit operation on ±4V power supplies. Supply
voltages less than these may result in lower gain band·
width and slew rate.
The LF351 will drive a 2 kn load resistance to ±10V
over the full temperature range of aOc to +70°C. If the
amplifier is forced'to drive heavier load currerits, how·
ever, an increase in input offset voltage may occur on
the negative, voltage swing and finally reach an active
current limit on both positive and negative swings.
Precautions should be taken to ensure that the power
supply for the integrated circuit never becomes reversed
in polarity or that the unit is not inadvertently installed

low supply current yet maintain a large gain bandwidth
product and fast slew rate_ In addition, well matched
high voltage JFET input devices provide very low input
bias and offset currents_ The LF353 is pin compatible
with the standard LM1558 allowing designers to immediately' upgrade the overall performance of existing
LM15!i8 and LM358 designs_ The LF354 is pin compatible with the LM747 and is identical in performance
to the LF353 with the additional feature of offset
nulling capability.

Note 1: For operating at elevated temperature, the device must be derated based on a thermal resistance of 16Cfc/W junction to ambient for
,the N package, and 150°C/W junction to ambient for the H package.
.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified the absolute maximum negative input voltage is equal to the negative power suppiy voltaga.
N'!ta 3: The power dissipation limit, however, cannot be exceeded.
Note 4: These specifications apply f~r Vs ±15V and O·C::;: TA::;: +70°C. VOS,'IS and lOS are measured atVCM = O.
Note 5: The input bias currents are junction leakage currents which approximetely doubla for every 1Cfc increase in, the junction temperature,
Tj. Due to limited production test time, the input bias currents measured are correlated to junction temperature. In normal operation the junction
temperature' rises above the ambient temperature as Ii result of internal power dissipation, PD. Tj = TA + EljA Po where EljA is the thermal resis·
tanee from junction to ,an:'bient. Use of a heat sink is recommended if input bias current is to be kept to a minImum.
Note 6: Supply voltage rejection ratio is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or decreasing simultaneously in accordance with com·
man practice.

Application Hints
These devices are op amps with an internally trimmed
input offset voltage and JFET input devices.(BI-FET II).
These JFETs have large reverse breakdown voltages-from
gate to source and drain eliminating the need for clamps
across the inputs. Therefore, large differential input
voltages can easily be accommodated without a large
increase in input' current. The maximum differential
input voltage is independent of the supply voltages.
However, neither of the input voltages should be

allowed to exceed the negative supply as this will cause
large currents to flow which can result in a destroyed
unit.
.
Exceeding' the negative common-mode limit on either
input will cause a reversal of the phase to the output
and force the amplifier output to the corresponding
high or low state. Exceeding the negative common-mode
limit on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a

raising the input back within the common·mode range
again puts the input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal openiting mode.

As vvith ·most amplifiers. 'care should be taken with lead
dress., component placement and supply' decoupling in
order'to ensure stabilitY. For example. ,resist6rs from the
output to an input sh,olild be placed with the body close
to the input to minimize ,"pick~up" 'and mal\imi~e the
frequency of the, ,'feedback' p~le by minimizing the
'
capacita'nce from the i~p';'t to ground.

The amplifiers will operate'with"~ common·mode input
voltage equal tli ihe'P9Sitive s~iiply; however. the, gain
bandw'idth"an'd,slew rate, maY be decreased in this condi·
tion. Wh'en the, negative, common·mode voltage swings
to wi,thin 3V of the negative supply,'an increase in input
offset voltage may occur.

A feedback pole is created when the feedback around
any amplifier is resistive. The parallel, resistance and
capacitance from the input of the device' ('usually the
inverting'input) to AC groun(l set the freql;lency of the
pole. In many ir]sta'n~es the' frequency of this p.ole is
much greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed, lo~p gain and consequently there is negligible
effect on stability' ~argin. 'However. :if the 'feedback
pol~ is less than approxim~tely 6 'times the':expected
3 dB frequeri~y, a leacl"capacitor'should be pl~ced from
the output"'io the,inpll,i:',of,the op am'p, The v,alue of the

Each amplifier is individually biased by a zener reference

Notes for Electrical Characteristics
Note 1: The maximum power dissipation for these devices must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TjMAX, 8jA, and the
ambient temperature, TA. The maximum available power dissipation at any temperature is Pd = (TjMAX.- TA)/fijA or the 25°C PdMAX, whichever is less.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified the absolute maximum negative input voltage is equal to th~ negative power supply voltage.
Note 3: Unless otherwise stated, these test conditions apply:

and VOS, IB and lOS are measured at VCM = O.
Note 4: The Temperature Coefficient of the adjusted input offset voltage changes only a small amount (0.5 p.Vfc typically) for each·mV of
adjustment from its original unadjusted value. Common·mode rejection and open loop voltage gain are also unaffected by offset adjustment.
Note 5: The input bias currents are junction·leakage curren'ts which approximately double for every

1ffc increase in the junction temperature, Tj.

Due to limited production test time. the input bias currents measured are correlated to junction temperature. In normal operation the junction
temperature rises above the ambient temperature as a result of internal power disSipation, Pd. Tj = T A + ejA Pd ,where E>jA is the thermal
resistance from junction to ambient. Use of a heat sink is recommended if input bias current is to be kept to a minimum ..
Note 6: Supply Voltage Rejection is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or decreasing simultaneously, in accordance with common
practice.
Note 7; Settling time is defined here, for a unity gain inverter connection using 2 k!l resistors. It is the tim.e required for the error voltage (the
voltage at the inverting input pin on the amplifier) to settle to within 0.01% of its final value from the time a 10V step input is applied to the
inverter.

Note. Pin·4 connected to case.

Application Hints
The LFT155/6 series are op amps with JFET input
devices. These JFETs have large reverse breakdown
voltages from gate to source and drain eliminating the
need for clamps across the inputs. Therefore large
differential input voltages can' easily be accomodated
without a large increase in input current. The maximum'
differential input voltage is independent' of the supply
voltages. However, neither of the input voltages'should
be allowed to exceed the negative supply as this will
cause large currents to flow which can result in a
destroyed unit.
Exceeding the negative common·mode limit on either
input will cause a reversal of the phase to the output
and force the amplifier output to the corresponding
high or low state. Exceeding the negative common-mode
limit on both inputs will force the amplifier output to a
high state. In neither case does a latch occur since
raising the input back within the common-mode range
again puts the input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal operating mode.

Exceeding the positive common-mode limit 011 a single
input will not change the phase of the output however,
if both inputs exceed the' limit, the output of the
amplifier will be forced to'a high state.
These amplifiers will operate with the common-mode
input voltage equal to the positive supply. In fact, the
common-mode voltage can exceed the positive supply by
approximately 100 mV independent of supply voltage
and over the full' operating temperature range. The
positive supply can therefore be used as a reference on
an input as, for example, in a supply current monitor
and/or limiter.
Precautions should be taken to ensure that the power
supply for the integrated circuit never becomes reversed
in polarity or that the unit is not inadvertently installed
backwards in a socket as an unlimited current surge
through the resulting forward diode within the Ie could
cause fusing of the internal conductors and result in a
destroyed unit.,

Application Hints

(Continued)
A 'feedback pole is created when the feedback around
any a,mplifier is resistive. The parallel resistance and
capacitance from the input of the device (usually the
inverting input) to ac ground set the frequency of the
pole. In' many instances the frequency of this pole is
much greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed loop gain and consequently there is negligible
effect on stability margin. However. if the feedback pole
is less than approximately six times the expected 3 dB
frequency a lead capacitor should be placed from the
output to the input of the op amp. The value of the
added capacitor should be such that the RC time
constant of this capacitor and the resistance it parallels
is greater than or equal to the original feedback pole
time constant.

Because these amplifiers are JFET rather than MOSFET.
input oP> amps they do not require special handli~g.
All of the bias currents in these amplifiers are set-by FET
current sources. The drai.n currents for the amplifi~~s are
therefore essentially independent of supply voltage.
As with most amplifiers. care should be taken with lead
dress. component placement and supply decoupling in
order to ensure stability. For example. resistors 'from the
output to an input should be placed 'withthe body closl!
to the input to minimize "pickup" and, maximize th'e
frequency of the feedback pole -by minimizing the
"
capacitance from the input to ground.

general description
The LH0036/LH0036C is a true micro power
instrumentation amplifier designed for precision
differential signal processing. Extremely high accu·
racy can !Je obtained due to the 300 Mil input
impedance and excellent 100 dB common mode
rejection ratio. It is packaged in a hermetic TO·8
package. Gain is programmable with one external
resistor from 1 to 1000. Power supply operating
range is between ±1V and ± 18V. Input bias current
and output bandwidth are both externally ad·
Justable or can be set by internally set values.
The LH0036 is specified for operation over the
-55°C to +125°C temperature range and the

LH0036C is specified for operation over the

signal bandwidth 350 kHz for Ave!- = 1. In some
applications, particularly at low frequency, it may
be desirable to limit bandwidth in order to mini·
mize the overall noise bandwidth of the device. A
resistor Raw may be placed between pin 1 and
ground to accomplish this purpose. Figure 2 shows
typical small signal bandwidth versus Raw.

CMRR CONSIDERATIONS

Also, for R3 = R5 = R4 = R6, the gain of A3 = 1,
and:
.

Use of Pin 9, CMRR Preset
Pin 9 should be grounded for nominal operation.
An .internal factory trimmed resistor, R6, will
yield aCMRR in excess of 80 dB (for AvcL = 100).
Should a higher CMRR be desired, pin 9 should
be left open and the procedure, in this section
followed.

eo=(1)(V2 -V,)=(e2- e,) [1+(::1)] (4)
As can be seen for identically matched resistors,
eCM is cancelled out, and the differential gain is
dictated by equation (4).

DC Off-set Voltage and Common Mode

Off·set may be nulled using the circuit shown in

The closed loop gain may be set to any value from

Atter adjusting Rl for best dc CMRR as before,
R2 should be, adjusted for minimum peak-to-peak

common, mode signal of the maximum amplitude
and frequ~ncy of interest.

FIGURE 5. CMRR Adjustment Circuit

The circuits of Figure 4 and 5 may be combined
as shown in Figure 6 to' accomplish both Vos
and CMRR null. However, the Vas and CMRR
adjustment are interactive and several iterations
are required. The, procedure for null should start
with the inputs grounded.

INPUT BIAS CURRENT CONTROL
Under nominal operating conditions (pin 3 ground·
ed). the LH0036 requires input currents of 40 nA.
The input 'curr~~t may, be reduced by ,inserting a
resistor (Rs) between 3 and ground or, alter·
natively, between 3 and V-. For Rs returned to
ground, the input bias current may b~ predicted

A circuit which overcomes adjustment 'interaction

first for, output null cif the LH0036. R 1 is 'then
adjustea for 'output null with +10V input. It is
.always a good idea to, check CMRR null with, a

LH0044 Series Precision Low Noise
Operational Amplifiers
general description
The LH0044 Series is a low n.oise, ultra-stable, high gain,
precision operational amplifier family intended to replace
either chopper-stabilized monolithic or modular ampli.fiers. The devices are particularly suited for differential
mode, inverting, and non-inverting mode applications
requiring very low initial offset, low offset drift, very
high gain, high CMRR, and high PSRR. In addition,
the LH0044 Series' low initial offset and' offset drift
eliminate costly and time consuming null adjustments
at the systems level. The superior performance afforded
by the LH0044 Series is made possible by advanced
processing and testing techniques, as well as active
laser trim of critical metal 'film resistors to minimize
offset voltage and drift. Unique construction eliminates
thermal feedback effects.

guaranteed over the temperature range of -55°C to
+125°C, and the LH0044AC, LH0044B, and LH0044C
are guaranteed from -25°C to +B5°C. The device is
available in standard TO-5 op amp pin out and is
compatible with LM10BA, LM725, and LM741 type
amplifiers,

LOW DRIFT CONSIDERATIONS

COMPENSATION

Achieving ultra-low drift in practical applications
, requires strict attention to board layout, thermocouple
effects, and input guarding. For specific recommendations
refer to AN-63 and AN-79.
A point worth stressing with regarc;! to low drift specifications is testing of the LH004,4. Simply stated-it is
virtuallY impossible to test the device using a thermoprobe or other form of local heating. A one degree
centigrade temperature gradient can account for tens
of microvolts of virtual offset (or drift). The test circuit
of Figure 1 is recommended for use in a stabilized oven
or continuously stirred oil bath with the entire circuit,
inside the oven or bath. Isothermal layout of the resistors
is advised in order to minimize thermocouple induced
EMF's.

For closed loop gains in excess of Hi, no external components are required for frequency stability. However,
, for gains of 10 or less, 'a 0.01,uF disc capacitor is
recommended between pin, 7 (V+) and pin B (Comp).
An improvement in ac PSRR will also be realized by
use of the 0.01,uF capacitor.
OFFSET NULL

In general, further nulling of LH0044 is neither necessary
nor recommended. For most applications the specified
initial·offset is sufficient.
However, for those applications requIring additional
null, an, obvious temptation might be to place a pot
between pins 1 and B with the wiper returned to V+.
This technique will usually result in reduced gain and
increased offset drift due to mismatch in the TCR of
the pot and R1 and R2. The technique is, therefore, not
generally recommended.

1

.---_--..-4:>_+"v
.---:-:----+--~-:"'I

I
o,I,FI

I

The recommended techni,que for offset nulling the
LH0044 is shown in Figure 2. Null is accomplished in
A2 and all errors are divided by the closed loop gain of
the LH0044. Additional offset and drift incurred due
to use of A2 'is less than 1,uVIV for V+ and V- changes
and O.Ol,uV/"C drift for the values shown in Figure 2.

LM146/LM246/LM346
Programmable Quad Operational Amplifiers
General Description

Features

The LM 146 series of quad op amps consists of four
independent, high gain, internally compensated, low
power, programmable amplifiers. Two external resistors
(RSET) allow the user to program the' gain bandwidth
product, slew rate, supply current, input bias current,
input offset current and input noise. For example, the
user can trade-off supply current for bandwidth or
optimize noise figure for a given source resistance. In a
similar way, other amplifier characteristics can be
tailored to the application. Except for the two programming pins at the end of the package, the LM 146 pin-out
is the same as the LM 124 and LM 148.

Nota 1: For supply voltages less than ±15V, the absolute maximum input voltage is equal to the supply voltage.
Note 2: The maximum power dissipation for these devices must .be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TjI\llAX, 9jA, and the
ambient temperature, T A. The maximum available power dissipation at any temperature is Pd = (TjMAX - TAII9jA or the 25'C PdMAX, whichever is less.
Note 3: Any of the amplifier outputs can be shorted to ground indefinitely; however, more than one should not be simultaneously shorted as the
maximum junction temperature will be exceeded.
<

Nota 4: These specifications apply over the absolute maximum operating temperature range unless otherwise noted.

Application Hints
Avoid reversing the power supply polarity, the device
will fail.
Common-ModI! Input Voltage: The negative commonmode'voltage limit is one diode drop above the negative
sup'ply voltage_ Exceeding this limit on either input will
result in an output phase reversal. The positive commonmode limit is typ'icallY 1V below the positive supply
voltage. No output phase reversal will occur if this limit
is exce~ded by either input.
"Output Voltage' Swing vs ISET: For a desired output
voltage swing the value of the minimum load depends on
the' positive and negative output curent capability of the
op amp. The maximum available positive output current,
IICL+), of the device increases with ISET whereas the
negative output current IICL-) is independent of ISET.
Figure 1 illustrates the above.

LM146 Typical Performance Summary: The LM146
typical behavior is shown in Figure 3. The device is fully
predictable. As the set current, ISET, increases, the
speed, the bias current, and the supply' current increase
while the noise power decreases proportionally and the
Vos remains constant. The usable GBW range of the op
, amp is 10 kHz to 3.5-4 MHz.

Isolation Between Amplifiers: The LM 146 die IS ISOthermally layed out such tllat crosstalk between all 4
amplifi!1rs is in excess of':"'105 dB (DC). Optimum
isolation (better than -110 dB) occurs between amplifiers A and D, Band C; that is; if amplifier A dissipates
power on its output stage" amplifier D is the one which
will be, affected the least, and vice versa. Same argument
holds for amplifiers Band C.

FIGURE 1_ Output Current Limit vs iSET
Input Capacitance: The input capacitance, CIN, of the
LM146 is approximately 2 pF; any stray capacitance,
CS, (due to external circuit circuit layout) will add to
CIN. When resistive or active feedback is applied, an
additional pole is added to the open loop frequency
response of the device. For instance with resistive feedback (Figure 2), this pole occurs at 1/2Tr (R1I1R2)
(CIN + CS). Make sure that this pole occurs at least
2 octaves beyond the expected -3 dB frequency corner
of the closed loop gain of the amplifier;, if not, place a
lead capacitor in the feedback such that the time constant of this capacitor and the resistance it parallels is
equal to the, RI(CS + CIN), where RI is the input resistance of the circuit.

FIGURE 3. LM146 Typical Characteristics
Low Power Supply Operation: The quad op amp operates down 'to ±1.3V supply. Also, since the internal
, . circuitry is biased through programmable current sources,
no degradation of the device speed will occur_
Speed vs Power Consumption: t.M146 vs LM4250
(single programmable). Through Figure 4, we observe
that the LM146's power consumption has been optimized for GBW products above 200 kHz, whereas the
LM4250 will reac;h a GBW of no more than 300 k'Hz, for
GBW products below 200 kHz, the LM4250 will consume less.

Temperature ,Effect on the GBW: The GBW (gain
bandwidth product), of the LM146 is directly proportional to ISET and inversely proportional t~ the absolute temperature. When using resistor~ to set the
bias current, ISET, of the device, the GBW product will
decrease with increasin,g temperature. Compensation
can be provided by creating an ISET current directly
proportional to temperature (see typical applications).

RA201 Precision Instrumentation
Amplifier Resistor Network
General Description
The RA201 is a family of precision instrumentation
amplifier networks. This device, when combined with
3 operational amplifiers, provides a precision instru·
mentation amplifier with common·mode rejection up to
100 dB. All gain setting resistors are provided within
the device. This feature assures excellent thermal tracking
and thermal matching of all resistors. This network is
manufactured using a high stability thin·film technology.
Thin·film resistors provide tracking temperature coef·
ficients of better than 5 ppm/DC. The thin-film resistors
are laser trimmed to guarantee resistor matching to
0.05% for the RA201·2, and 0.1% for the RA201·1.

Other applications include process control interfacing
and precision decade dividers.

Features
• Gain programmable
• Matching accuracies to 0.05%.
• Matching temperature coefficient to 5 ppmtC .
• Absolute temperature coefficient to 80 ppmtC
• Close thermal proximity of all resistors
• Standard dual·in·line package
•

Note 1: Rated voltage is limited by the individual resistor power rating of 0.25W; For example, a 25k resistor could withstand a maximum of
V = -1(0.25) (25,000) = 79V. This rating may need to be reduced to be consistent with maximum package power if several resistors are dissipating
power simultaneously.

"

,

Note 2: Resistor ratios shown apply at TA = 25°C; for TMIN S T AS TMAX the ratio tolerances are double the specifica60ns shown.
Note 3: This test guarantees the CMRR contributed by resistance mismatch. In low gain applications, all 3 amplifiers contribute strongly to the

overall CMRR. In high gain applications, the degradation due to resistor mismatch and output stage CMRR are divided by the gain of the input
stage.

AF100 Universal Active Filter
general description

features

The AF100 state variable active filter is a general second
order lumped RC network. Only four external resistors
program the AF100 for specific second order functions.
Lowpass, highpass, and bandpass functions are available
simultaneously at separate outputs. Notch and all pass
functions are available by summing the outputs in the
uncommitted output summing ampl ifier. Higher order
systems are realized by cascading AF100 active filters'
with appropriate programming resistors.

• Military or commercial specifications
• Independent Q, frequency, gain adjustments
• Low sensitivity to external component variation
• Separate lowpass, highpass, bandpass outputs
• Inputs may be differential, inverting, or non·inverting
• Allpass and notch outputs may be formed using
uncommitted amplifier
• Operates to 10k Hz
• Q range to 500
±5V to ±lBV
• Power supply range'
±1% unadjusted
• Frequency accuracy
• Q frequency product::; 50,000

Any of the classical filter configurations, such as Butterworth, Bessel, Cauer, and Chebyshev can be formed.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Using proper input and output connections the circuit
can also be used to generate the transfer functions for a
notch and all pass fi,lter.

A schematic of the AF100 is shown in Figure 1.
Amplifier A 1 is a summing amplifier with inputs from
integrator A2 to the non·inverting input and integrator
A3 to the inverting input. Amplifier A4 is an uncommitted
amplifier.

In the transfer function for a notch function a2 becomes
zero, a1 equals 1, and a3 equals Wz 2. The transfer
function becomes:

By adding external resistors the circuit can be used to
generate the second order system

(notch)

The denominator coefficients determine the complex
pole pair location and the quality of the poles where

In the allpass transfer function a1 = 1, a2 = -wo/O and
a3 = w0 2 The transfer function becomes:

Q TUNING

1000

To tune the Q of an AF100 requires one resistor from
pins 1 or 2 to ground. The value of the Q tuning resistor
depends on the input connection and input resistance
as well as the value of the Q. The Q of the unit is
inversely proportional to resistance to ground at pin 1
and directly proportional to resistance to ground from
pin 2.

FILTER DESIGN
Since most filter tables 'are in terms of a normalized
lowpass prototv'pe~ 'the _filter to be designed is usually
reduced to
lowpass' prototype: After the lowpass

transfer function is found, it is transformed to obtain the
transfer function for the actual filter desired. Graph I
shows the lowpass amplitude response which can be
defined by four 'quantities.

The normalized lowpass filter has the passband edge

SELECTION OF TRANSFER FUNCTION

1\

The selection of a function which approximates the
shape of the response desired is a complicated process.
Except in the simplest cases it requires the use of tables
,or computer programs. The form of the transfer function desired is in terms of the pole and zero locations.
The most common approximations found in tables are
Butterworth, Tschebycheff, Elliptic, and Bessel. The
decision as to which approximation to use is usually
a function of the requirements and system objectives.
Butterworth filters are the simplest but have the disadvantage of requiring high order transfer functions to
obtain sharp roll-offs.

3. In cascaded filters of more tban two sections the
first section should be the section with "0" closest
to 0.707 and then additional stages should be
added in order of least difference between first
stage a and their O.

1. The highest "0" pole pair should be paired with
the zero pair closest in frequency.
2. If highpass and lowpass stages are cascaded the
lowpass sections should be the higher fr¢quency
and hlghpass sections the lower frequency.

TEST PROCEDURE (Ref. Figure 24)

Gain

Center Frequency

To measure the gain, set the amplitude of the signal
generator to lV RMS (0 dBV) and set the frequency to
the center frequency of the filter. Then read the output
on the ac vbltmeter. The output amplitude at highpass
output is -10 dBV ±0.15 dB, which equals 0.316V
±0.006V RMS. The output amplitude at bandpass
output is 0 dBV ±0.15 dB, which equals 1.000V
±0.017V RMS. The output amplitude at lowpass output
is +10 dBV ±0.15dB, which equals3,16V ±0.06V RMS.
The output at the amplifier output is 0 dBV ±0.1 dB,
which equals lV ±O.OlV RMS.

The center frequency is measured by adjusted the signal
generator for a 180° phase shift and then reading the
input frequency on the counter.
Q

The Q is measured by measuring the bandwidth and
dividing by the center frequency. To measure the bandwidth, increase the frequency of the signal generator
until the phase shift reads 180°-45° ,(135°) and read the
frequency on the frequency counter. This is f-45°'
Decrease the frequency of the Signal generator until the
phase meter reads 180° + 45 (225°) and read the frequency on the frequency counter. This is f+ 45o.

DC Offset
The dc offset is measured with the DVM connected to
the lowpass output by setting the input signal level to
zero and reading the DVM.
PS Current

To calculate the Q:

The power supply current is measured by connecting the
DVM across a 10n resistor in the positive power supply
lead with the input level set to zero. The DVM should
read less than 45 mY.

(low pass)

Two equal value frequency setting resistors are required
for frequencies above 1 kHz., For low,er frequencies, T
tuning or the addition of external capacitors is required,
Using external capacitors allows the user to go as low in
frequency as he desires. T tuning and external capaci·
tors can be used together,

Using, an external op amp and the proper input and
output connections, the circuit can also be used to
generate the transfer functions for a notch and all pass
filter.

FIGURE 2. Resistive Tuning,

The relationships between the generalized coefficients
and the external resistors will be found in the appendix.
It is not, however, necessary, to use these theoretical, if
not "messy", equations to solve for the proper external
resistor values. In general, it is assumed that the user
has knowledge of, the frequency and Q of the specific
filter he is designing. For higher ord~r filters of various
types, the reader is directed to any of the available
texts on filters (see bibliography) for information and
tables concerning the location of the poles and zeros.
Once the specifics of the filt,er are found from the tables,
it is simply a matter of cascading the sections with proper
attention to some general guidelines which are included
later in the application section.

Setting the a requires one resistor from either pin 1 or
pin 2 to ground. The value of the a setting resistor
depends on the input connection and input resistance as
well as the value of the a. The a will be inversely pro, portional to the, resistance from pin 1 to ground and
directly' proportional to resistance from pin 2 to ground.

Notches can be generated by two simple methods:
using RC input (Figure 8) or low pass/high pass summing
(Figure 9). The RC input method requires adding a
capacitor to _pin 14 and a resistor connects to pin 7. The
summing method requires tWo resistors connected to
the low pass and high pass output.

FIGURE 9. Output Notch
GI'IAPH H. Output Notch

The difference between the two possible methods of
generating a notch is that the capacitor connection
requires a high quality precision capacitor and the gain
of the circuit is difficult to adjust because the gain- and
zero location are both dependent on Gz ar)d RZ. The
amplifier summin~ method requires 3 precision resistors
and an external operational amplifier. However, the gain
can be adjusted independent of the notch frequency.

Certainly, there is no substitute for experience when

TUNING'TIPS
In applications where 2 to 3% accuracy is not sufficient
to provide the required filter response, the AF150 stages
can be tuned by adding trim pots or trim resistors in
series or parallel with one of the frequency determining
resistors and the 0 determining resistor.

When tuning a filter section, no matter what output
configuration is to be used in the circuit, measurements
are made between the input and the band pass (pin 13)
output.

DESIGN EXAMPLE

Center frequency
Zero frequency

Before any tuning is attempted the low pass (pin 5)
output should be checked to see that the output is not
clipping. At the center frequency of the section the low
pass output is 10 dB higher than the band pass output
and 20 dB higher than the high pass. This should be kept
in mind because if clipping occurs the results' obtained
when tuning will be incorrect.

Frequency Tuning

Rf = 12,040n

By adjusting the resistance betwelln p'ins 7 and 13 the
center frequency of a section can be adjusted. If the
input is through pin 1 the phase shift at center fre·
quency will be 1800 and if the input is through pin 2
the phase shift at center frequency will be 00 • Adjusting
center frequency by phase is the most accurate but
tuning for maximum gain is also correct.

from pin 2 to ground' (0 < 0.6). High 0 tuning resistors
will be from pin 1 to ground. To tune the 0 correctly,
the signal source must have an output impedance very
much lower than the input resistance of the filter since

SELECTION OF TRANSFER FUNCTION
The selection of a function which approximates the
shape of the response desired is a complicated process.
Except in the simplest cases, it requires the use of tables
or computer programs. The form Mthe transferfunction
desired is in terms of the pole and zero locations. The
most common approximations found in tables are
Butterworth, -Chebychev, Elliptic and Bessel. The
decision as to which approximation to use is usually a
function of the requirements and system objectives.
Butterworth filters are the simplest but have the disadvan tage of requiring high order transfer functions to
obtain sharp roll-offs.

The Chebychev function is a min/max approximation
in the pass band. This approximation has the property
that it is equiripple whicjl means that the error oscillates
between maximums and minimums of equal amplitude
in the pass band. The Chebychev approximation, because
of its equiripple nature, has a much steeper transition
region than the Butterworth approximation.

1415

Normalized Low Pass Transformed to Un-Normalized
Low Pass
The normalized low pass filter has the pass band edge
normalized to unity. The un-normalized low pass filter
instead has the pass band edge at fc . The normalized and
un-normalized low pass filters are related by the transformation s ~ sWc. This transforms the normalized
pass band edge s ~ j to the un-normalized pass band
edge s = jwc.

The ell iptic filter, also known as Cauer or Zolotarev
filters, are equiripple in the pass band and stop band and
have a steeper transition region than the Butterworth or
the Chebychev.
For a specific low pass filter three quantities can be used
to determ ine the degree of the transfer function: the
maximum pass band ripple, the minimum stop band
attenuation, and the transition ratio (tr ~ ws/wcl.
Decreasing AMAX, increasing AMIN, or decreasing tr
will increase the degree of the transfer function. But for

the same requirements the elliptic filter will require
the lowest order trahsfer function. Tables and graphs
are available in reference books 'such' as "Reference
Data for Radio Engineers", Howard W. Sams & Co., Inc.,
5th Edition, '-970 and Erich Christian and Egon Eisen·
mann, "Filter Design Tables and Graphs", John WHey
and Sons, 1966.
For specific transfer functions and their pole locations

(all pass)

Each of the second order functions is realizable by using
an AF150 stage. By cascading these stages the desired
transfer function is realized.
CASCADING SECOND ORDER STAGES.
The primary concern' in cascading second order stages
is to minimize the difference in amplitude from input to
output over the frequencies of interest. A computer
program is probably required in very complicated cases
but some general rules that can be used that will usually
give satisfactory results are:

DESIGN OF CASCADED MUL TISECTION FILTERS
The first step in designing is to define the response
required and define the performance specifications:
1. Type of filter:
Low pass, high pass, band pass, notch, all pass
2. Attenuation and frequency response
3. Performance
Center frequency/corner frequency plus tolerance
and stability
Insertion loss/gain plus tolerance and stability
Source impedance
Load impedance
Maximum output noise
Pow~r consumption
Power supply voltage
Dynamic range
Maximum output level
Second step is' to find the pole and zero location for
the transfer function which nieet the above require·
ments. This can be done by using tables and graphs or
. network synthesis. The form of the transfer function
which is easiest to convert to a cascaded filter is a
product of first and second order terms in these forms:
First Order
K

1. The highest a pole pair should be paired with the
zero pair closest in frequency.
2. If high pass and low pass stages are cascaded, the low
pass sections should be the higher frequency and'high
pass sections the lower frequency.
3. In cascaded filters of more than two sections, the
first section should be the section with a closest
to 0.707 and then additional stages should be added
in order of least difference between first stage a and
their O.
DESIGN EXAMPLES OF CASCADE CONNECTIONS
Example 1.
Consider a 4th order Butterworth low pass filter with a
10kHz cutoff (-3 dB) frequency and input impedance
~30 kn.
From tables, the normalized filter parameters are:

AF151 Dual Universal Active Filter

General Description

Features

The AF15'l consists of 2 general purpose state variable
active filters in a single package. By using only 4 external
resistors for each section, various second order functions
may be formed. Low pass, high pass and band pass
functions are available simultaneously at separate
outputs. In 'addition, there are 2 uncommitted operational' amplifiers which are available for buffering or
for forming all pass and notch functions. Any of the
classical filter configurations, such as Butterworth,
Bessel, Cauer and Chebyshev can be easily formed.

• Independent Q, frequency and gain adjustment
• Very low sensitivity to external component variation
• Separate low pass, high pass and bandpass outputs
• Operation to 10 kHz
• Q range to 500
• Wide power supply range-±5V to ±18V
• Accuracy-±I%
• Fourth order functions in one package

Applications Information
The AF151 consists of 2 identical filter sections and
2 uncommitted op amps. The op amps may be used for
buffering. inputs and outputs, summing amplifiers (for
notch filter generation), adjusting gain through the
filter sections, additional passive networks to create
higher order filters, or simply used elsewhere in the
user's system.

If the output is taken from the output of A 1, numerator
coefficients a1 and a2 equal zero, and the transfer function becomes:
T(s) =

The design equations given apply to both sections;
however, for clarity, only the pin desi"gnations for
section 1 will be shown in the examples and discussion.

(high pass)

If the output is taken from the output of A2, numerator
coefficients a 1 and a3 equal zero and the transfer functions becomes:

See. the AF100 data sheet for additional information on
this type of filter.

T(s) =

The design equations assume that the user has knowledge
of the frequericy and Q values for the particular design
to be synthesized. If this is not the case, various references and texts are available to help the user in determining these parameters. A bibliography of recommended
texts can also.be found in the AF1 00 data sheet.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
A schematic of one section of the AF151 is shown in
Figure 1. Amplifier A1 is a summing amplifier with
inputs from integrator A2 to. the non-inverting input
and integrator A3 to the inverting input. Amplifier A4
is an uncommitted amplifier.
.

Using proper input and output connections the circuit
can also be used to generate the transfer functions for a
notch and all pass filter.
In the transfer function for a notch function a2 becomes
zero, a1 equals wz 2 and a3 equals 1. The transfer function becomes:

By adding external resistors the circuit cim be used to
generate the second order system.

F'REQUENCY CALCULATIONS
For operation above 200 Hz, the frequency of each
section of the AF151 is set by 2 equal valued resistors.
These resistors couple the output of the first op amp
(pin 2) to the input of the second op amp (pin 1) and
the output of the second op amp (pin 23) to the input
of the third op amp (pin 22).

To determ'ine which connection is required for a parti·
cular Q, arbitrarily select a. value of RIN (Figure 4) and
calculate,OMIN according to equation 3.

Both connections shown in Figures 4 and 5 are "non·

input signal and the low pass output.

Q CALCULATIONS

To set the a of each section of the AF 151, one resistor
is required. The vallJe of the a setting resistor depends
on the input connection (inverting or non·inverting)
and the input resistance. Because the input resistance
does ,affect the a, it is often desirable to use one of
the uncommitted op amps to provide a buffer between
the signal source impedance and the input resistor used
to set the O.

For any a, equation 6 may be used with the "inverting"
connection shown in Figure 6.

Again. it is advantageous to use one of the uncommitted

effecting the Q of subsequent stages. Resistor R can be
used to set the gain of the filter section.

In applicat,ions where 2% to 3% accuracy is not sufficient
to provide the r~quired filter response. the AF151 stages
can be tuned by adding trim pots or trim resistors ir)

resistors and the Q determining resistor.

When tuning a filter section. no matter what output
configuration is to be used in the circuit. measurements
are made between the input and the bane! pass output..

For Figure 5:

10 5
11+-RQ

Before any tuning is attempted. the low pass output
should be checked to see that the output is not clipping.
At the center frequency of the section. the low pass
output is 10 dB higher than the band pass output and
20 dB higher than the high pass. This should be kept in
mind because if clipping occurs. the results obtained
when tuning will be incorrect.

OPERATION

they drive). Thus, even at very slow dV Idt rates at the
clock input (such as from relatively weak comparator
outputs). improper logic'operation will ncit result.

The registers consist of a set of master latches that act
as the control elements in the device and change state
on the input clock high-to~low transition and a set of
slave latches that hold the register data and change, on
the input clock low-to-high transition. Externally the
device acts as a special purpose serial-to·parallel converter
that accepts data at the D input of the register and sends
the data to the approp'riate slave latch to appear at the
register output and the DO output on the DM2502 and
DM2504 when the clock goes from low-to-high. There
are no restrictions on the data input; 'it can change state
at any time except during a short interval centered about
the clock low-to-high transition. At the same time that
data enters the register bit the next less significant bit
register is set to a low ready for the next iteration.

LOGIC CODES
All three registers can be operated with various logic
codes. Two's complement code is used by offsetting the
comparator 1/2 full range + 1/2 LSB and using the
complement of the MSB (07 or ell1) with a binary D/A
converter. Offset binary is used in the same manner but
with the MSB (Q7 or Qll). BCD D/A converters ca~ be
used with the addition of illegal code suppression logic.
ACTIVE HIGH OR ACTIVE LOW LOGIC
The register can be used with either DI A converters that
require a low voltage level to turn on, or DfA converters
that require a high voltage level to turn the switch on. If
D/A converters are used which turn on with a low logic
level, the resulting digital output from the register is
active low. That is, a logic "1" is represented as a low
voltage level. If D/A converters are used that turn on
with a high logic level then the digital output is active
high; a lo'gic "1" is represented as a high voltage level.

The register is reset by holding the if (Start) signal low
during the clock low-to·high transition. The register
synchronouslY,resets to the state Q7 (11) low, and all
the remaining register outputs high. The Qcc (Conversion Complete) signal is also set high at this time. The S
signal should not be brought back high until after the
clock low-to-high transition in. order to guarantee
correct resetting. After the clock has gone high resetting
the register, the S signal must be removed. On the next
clock low-to-high transition the data on the D input is
set into the Q7 (11) register bit and the Q6 (10) register
bit is set to a low ready for the next clock cycle. On the
next clock low-to-high transition data enters the Q6 (10)'
register bit and Q5 (9) is set to a low. This operation is
repeated for each register bit in turn until the register
has been filled. When the data goes into QO, the Q cc
signal goes low, and the register is inhibited from further
change until reset by Start signal.

EXPANDED OPERATION
An active low enable input, E, on the DM2503 and
DM2504 allows registers to be connected together to
form a longer register by connecting the clock, D, and 5
inputs in parallel and connecting the Q cc output of one
register to the E input of the next less significant
register. When the start signal resets the register, the E
signal goes high, forcing the Q7 (11) bit high and
inhibiting the register from accepting data until the
previous register is full and its Q ce goes low. If only
one register is used the E input should be held at a low
,logic level.

The DM2502, DM2503 and DM2504 have a specially
tailored two-phase clock generator to provide 'non·
overlapping two·phase clock pulses (i.e., the clock
waveforms intersect below the thresholds of the gates

SHORT CYCLE

CP: The clock input of the register.
0: The serial data input of the r.egister.
DO: The serial data out. (The 0 input delayed one bit).
E: The register enable. This input is used to expand the
length of the register and when high forces the 07 (11)
register output high and inhibits conversion.'When not
used for 'expansion the enable is held at a low logic level
(ground).
OJ i = 7 (11) to 0: The outputs of the register.
Oce: The conversion complete, output. This output
remains high during a conversion and goes low when a
,
conversion is complete.
07 (11): The true output of the MSB of the register.
07 (tli: The complement output of the MSB of the
register.
S: The start input. If the start input is held low for at
least a clock period the register will be reset to 07 (11)
low and all the remaining outputs high. A start pulse that
is ,low for a shorter period of time can be used if it
meets the set-up time requirements of the S input.

If all bits are not required, the register may be truncated
and conversion time saved by using a register output
going low rather than the Occ signal to indicate the end
of conversion. If the register is truncated and operated
in the continuous conversion motte, a lock·up condition
may occur on power turn-on. This condition can be
avoided by making the start input the OR function of
Occ and the appropriate register output.

c

COMPARATOR BIAS
To minimize the digital error below ±1/2 LSB, the
comparator must be biased. If a D/A converter is used,
which requires a low voltage level to turn on, ,the
comparator should be biased +1/2' LSB. If the D/A
converter requires a high logic level to turn on, the
comparator must be biased -1/2 LSB.

definition of terms
True rms to dc Converter: A device which converts
any signal (ac, dc, ac + dc) to the d!= equivalent of the
rms value.
Error: is the amount by which the actual output differs
from the theoretical value. Error is defined as a sum of a
fixed term and a percent of reading term. The fixed
term remains constant, regardless of input while the
percent of reading term varies with the input.
Total Unadjusted Error·: The total error of the device
without any external adjustments.
Bandwidth: The frequency at which the output dc
IIoltage drops to 0.707 of the dc value at low frequency.
, 13·5

Frequency for Specified Error: The error at low fre·
quency is governed by the size of the external averaging
capacitor. At high frequencies, error is dependent on the
frequency response of the internal circuitry. The fre·
quency for specified error is the maximum input
frequency for which the output will be within the
specified error band (i.e., frequency for 1% error means
the input frequency must be less than 200 kHz to
maintain an output with an error of less than 1% of the
initial reading.
Crest Factor: is the peak value of a waveform divided
by the rms value of the same waveform. For high crest
factor signals, the performance of the LH0091 can be
improved by using the high crest factor connection.

ACCURACY (ERROR)

SELECTION OF RESISTORS TO SET m

The accuracy of the LH0094 is specified for both externally adjusted and unadjusted cases.

Internal Matched Resistors

Although it is customary to specify the errors in percent
of full-scale (1 OVI. it is seen from the typical performance curves that the actual errors are in percent of
reading. Thus, the specified errors are overly conservative 'for small input voltages. An example of this is the
LH0094 used in the multiplication mode. The specified
typical error is 0.25% of full-scale (25 mV). As seen
from the curve, the unadjusted error is "" 25 mV at 10V
input, but the error is less than 10 mV for inputs up to
1V. Note also that if either the multiplicand or the
multiplier is at less than 10V, (5V for example) the
unadjusted error is less. Thus, the errors specified are at
full-scale-the worst case.

RA and RB are matched internal resistors. They are
lOOn ±10%, but matched to 0.1%.

C)

The 'LH0094 is designed such that the use"r is able
to externally adjust the gain and,offset of the devicethus trim out all of the errors of conversion. In most
applications, the gain adjustment is the only external
trim needed for super accuracy-except in division
mode, where a denominator offset adjust is needed
for small denominator voltages.

EXPONENTS

External Resistors

The LH0094 is capable of performing roots to 0.1 and
powers up to 10; However, care should be taken when
applying these exponents-otherwise" results may be
misinterpreted. For example, consider the 1/1 Oth
power of a number: i.e., 0.001 raised to 0.1 power is
0,5011; 0.1 raised to the 0.1 power is 0.7943; and 10
raised to the 0.1 power is 1.2589. Thus, it is seen that
while the input has changed 4 decades, the output has
only changed a littl.e more than a factor of 2. It is also
seen that with as little as 1 mV of offset, the output will
also be greater than zero with.zero input.

The exponent is set by 2 external resistors or it may
be con'tinuously varied by a single trim pot. (Rl +

MM74C925, MM74C926, MM74C927, MM74C928 4-Digit
Counters with Multiplexed 7-Segment Output Drivers.
general description
carry·out is an overflow indicator which is high at
2000, and it goes back low only when the counter is
reset. Thus, this is a 3 1/2·digit counter.

These CMOS counters consist of a 4-digit counter, an
internal output latch, NPN output sourcing drivers for
a 7-segment display, ·and an internal multiplexing
circuitry with four multiplexing outputs. The multiplexing circuit has its own free·running oscillator,
and requires no external clock. The counters advance
on negative edge of clock. A high signal on the Res·et
input will reset the counter to zero, and reset the carry·
out low. A low signal on the Latch Enable input will
latch the number in the counters into the internal output latches. A high signal on Display Select input will
select the number in the counter to be displayed; a low
level signal on the Display Select will select the number
in the output latch to be displayed.

design considerations

The MM74C925 is a 4-decade counter and has Latch
'Enable, Clock and Reset inputs.

·Segment resistors are desirable to minimize power
dissipation and chip heating. The DM75492 serves as a
good digit driver when it is desired to drive bright
displays. When using this driver with a 5V supply at
room temperature, the display can be driven without
segment resistors to full illumination. The user must use
caution in this mode however, to prevent overheating of
the device by using too high a supply voltage or by
operating at high ambient temperatures.

The MM74C926 is like the MM74C925 except that it
has a display select and a carry-out used for cascading
counters. The carry-out signal goes high at 6000, goes
back low at 0000.
The MM74C927 is like the MM74C926 except the
second most significan\digit divides by 6 rather than 10.
Thus, if the·clock inpur,frequency is 10 Hz, the display
would read tenths of seconds and minutes (i.e., 9:59.9).

The input protection circuitry consists of a series resistor,
and a diode to ground. Thus input signals exceeding
Vec will not be clamped. This input signal should not be
.
allowed to exceed 15V.

The MM74C928 is like the MM74C926 except the most
significant digit divides by 2 rather than 10 and the

NSB5388 3 1/2-Digit 0.5 Inch LED Display

General Description
The NSB5388 is a 3 1/2-digit, 0.5 inch high GaAsP
LED display. Basically a common cathode multiplexed
display, the NSB5388 features separate access to the
± sign and decimal points and is directly compatible with
the ADD3500, ADD3501 DVM circuit. Electrical connection is by PCB type terminals on the edge of the
display.

Rosin core solder, solid core solder, and low activity
organic fluxes are recommended. Freon TF, Isopropanol,
Methanol or Ethanol solvents are recommended only at
room temperature and for short periods. The use of
other solvents or elevated temperature use of the recommended solvents may cause permanent damage to the
lens or display.

The optical design of this unit creates a distinct, easy to .
read display with a wide viewing angle, excellent ONI
OFF contrast and segment uniformity. The NSB5388
provides tl)e designer with an effective, easy to implement answer to the need for an inexpensive large numeric
display.

•

Applications.
Digital instrumentation
Power supply readouts
Multimeters
Panel meters

Recommended Display Processing
The multidigit series display is constructed on a standard
printed circuit board substrate and covered with a
plastic lens. The edge connector tab will stand 230°C
for 5 seconds. Permanent damage to the display will
result if lens temperature exceeds 70°C. Since the display is not hermetic, immersion of the entire package
during flux and clean operation may cause condensation
of flux or cleaner on the underside of the lens. Only the
edge connectors should be immersed.

NSB5918 3 3/4-Digit 0.5 Inch LED Display

General Description
The NSB5918 is a 3 314-digit, 0.5 inch high GaAsP
LED display. Basically a common cathode multiplexed
display, the NSB5918 features separate access to the'
± sign and decimal points and is directly compatible
with the ADD3701 DVM circuit. Electrical connection
is by PCB type terminals on the edge of the display'. The
3 314-digit is distinguished from 3 1/2 and 4 1/2-digit
designs by the fact that the overflow sign is followed
by 4 full 7-segment digits.

of flux or cleaner on the underside of the lens. Only the
edge connectors should be immersed.
'
Rosin core solder, solid core solder, and low activity
organic fluxes are recommended_ Freon TF, Isopropanol,
Methanol or Ethanol solvents are recommended only at
rodm temperature and for short periods. The use of
other solvents or elevated temperature use of the recommended solvents may cause permanent damage to the
, lens or display.

The optical design of this unit creates a distinct, easy to .
read display with .a wide· viewing angle, excellent ONI
OFF contrast and' segment uniformity. The NSB5918
provides the designer with an effective, easy to implement answer to the need for an inexpensive large numeric
display.

•

Recommended Display Processing

Absolute Ratings

The multidigit series display is constructed on a standard
printed circuit board subst~ate and covered with a
plastic lens. The edge connector tab will stand 230°C
for 5 seconds: Permanent damage to the display will
result'if lens temperature exceeds 70°C:Since the display is not hermetic, immersion of the entire package
during flux and clean operation may cause condensation

The specification or selection of analog·to·digital (AID)
or digital·to·analog (D/A) converters can be a chancey
thing unless the specifications are understood by the
person making the selection. Of course, you know you
want an accurate converter of specific resolution; but
h~w do you insure that you get what you want? For
example, 12 switches, 12 arbitrarily valu'ed resistors, and
a reference will produce a 12·bit DAC exhibiting 12
quantum steps of output voltage. In all probability, the
user wants something better than the expected perfor·
mance of such a DAC. Specifying a 12·bit DAC or an
ADC must be made with a full understanding of accuracy,
linearity, differential linearity, mondtonicity, scale, gain,
offset, and hysteresis errors.

Accuracy is sometimes considered to be a non·specific
term when applied to D/A or AID converters. A linearity
spec is generally .considered as more descriptive. An
accuracy specification describes the worst case deviation
of the DAC output voltage from a straight line drawn
between zero and full scale; it includes all errors. A
12·bit DAC could not have a conversion accuracy better
than ±Y:z LSB or ±1 part in 212+1 (±0.0122% of full
scale due to finite resolution). This would be the case in
figure 1 if there were no errors. Actually,' ±0.0122% FS
represents a deviation from 100% accuracy; therefore
accuracy shoUld be specified as 99.9878%. However,
convention would dictate 0.0122% as being an accuracy
spec rather than an inaccuracy (tolerance or error) spec. '

This note explains the meanings of and the relationships
between the various specifications encountered in AID
and D/A converter descriptions. It is intended that the
meanings be presented in the simplest and clearest.
practical terms. Included are transfer curves showing the
several types of errors di~cussed. Timing and control
signals and several binary codes are described 'as they
relate to AID and DIA converters.

Accuracy as applied to an ADC would describe the
difference between the actual input voltage and the full·
scale weighted equivalent of the binary output code;
included are quantizing and all other errors. If a 12·bit
ADC is stated to be ±1 LSB accurate, this is equivalent
to ±0.0245% or twice the minimum possible quantizing
error of 0.0122%. An accuracy spec describes the
maximum sum of all errors including quantizing error,
but is rarely provided on data sheets as the several errors
are listed separately.

MEANING OF PERFORMANCE SPECS
Resolution describes the smallest standard incremental
change in output voltage of a DAC or, the amount of .
input voltage change required to increment the output of
an ADC between one code change and the next adjacent
code change. A converter with n switches can resolve 1
part in 2n. The least significant increment is then 2· n, or
'one least significant bit (LSB). In contrast, the most
significant bit (MSB) carries a weight of 2.1,. Resolution
applies to DACs and ADCs, and may be expressed in
percent of full'scale or in binary bits. For example, an
ADC with 12·bit resolution could resolve 1 part in 212
(1 part in 4096) or 0.0245% of full scale. A converter
with 10V full scale could resolve a 2.45mV input change.
Likewise, a 12·bit DAC would exhibit an output voltage
change of 0.0245% of full scale when the binary input
code is incremented one binary bit (1 LSB). Resolution
is a design parameter 'rather than a performance specifi·
cation; it says nothing about accuracy or linearity.

Quantizing Error is the maximum deViation from a
straight line transfer function of a perfect ADC. As, by
its very nature, an ADC quantizes the analog input into
a fihite number of output codes, only an infinite
resolution ADC would exhibit zero quantizing error. A
perfect ADC, suitably offset Y, LSB at zero scale as
shown in figure 2, exhibits only ±y, LSB maximum
output error. If not offset, the error will be +6 LSB as
shown in figure 3. For example, a perfect 12·bit ADC
will show a ±y, LSB error cif ±O.0122% while the
quantizing error of' an 8·bit ADe is ±y, part in 2 8 or
±O.195% of full scale. Quantizing error is not strictly
applicable to a DAC; the equivalent effect is more
properly a resolution error.

Gain Error is essentially the same as scale error for an
ADC. In the case of a DAC with current and voltage
mode outputs, the current output could be to scale
while the voltage output could exhibit a gain error. The
amplifier feedback resistors would be trimmed to correct
the gain error.

Offset Error (zero error) is the output voltage of a DAC
'with zero code input, or it is the required mean'value of
input voltage of an AQC to set zero code out. (See
figure 5.) Offset error is usually cau~ed by amplifier or
comparator input offset voltage or current; it can usual,ly
be trimmed to zero with an offset 'zero adjust potentio·
meter external to the DAC or ADe. Offset error may be
expressed in % FS or in fractional LSB.

Scale Error (full scale error) is the departure from design
output'voltage of a DAC for a given input code, usually
full·scale code. (See figure 4.) 111 an ADC it is the depar·
ture of actual input voltage from design input voltage for
a full·scale output code. Scale errors can be caused by
errors in reference voltage, ladder resistor values, or
amplifier gain, et. al. (See Temperature Coefficient.)
Scale errors may be corrected by adjusting output
amplifier gain or refe'rence voltage. If the transfer curve
resembles that of figure 7, a scale adjustment at % scale
cquld improve the overall ± accuracy compared to an
adjustment at full scale, '

Hysteresis Error in an ADC causes the voltage at which' a
code transition occurs to be dependent upon the direction
from which the transition is approached. This is usually
caused by hysteresis in the comparator inside an ADC.
Excessive hysteresis may be reduced by ,design; however,
some slight hysteresis is inevitable and may be objec·
,tionable in converters if hysteresis approaches Y, LSB.
Linearity, or, more accurately, non·linearity specifica·
tions describe the departure from a linear transfer curve
for either an ADC or a DAe. Linearity error does not
include quantizing, zero, or scale errors. Thus, a specifi·

14·2

l>
cation of ±~ LSB linearity implies error in addition to
the inherent ±~ LSB quantizing or resolution error. In
reference to figure 2, showing no errors other than
quantizing error, a linearity error allows for one or more
of the steps being greater or less than the ideal shown.
Figure 6 shows a 3-bit DAC transfer curve with no more
than ±~ LSB non·linearity, yet one step shown is of zero
amplitude. This is within the specification, as the maxi·
mum deviation from the ideal straight line is ±1 LSB
(~ LSB resolution error plus ~ LSB non·linearity). With
any linearity error, there is' a differential non-linearity
(see below). A ±~ LSB linearity spec guarantees
monotonicity (see below) and';;; ±1 LSB differential nonlinearity (see below). In the example of figure 6, the
code transition from 100 to 101 is the worst possible
non-linearity, being the transition from 1 LSB high at
code 100 to 1 LSB low at 110. Any fractional nonlinearity beyond ±~ LSB will allow for a non-mo{lotonic
transfer curve. Figure 7 shows a typical non-linear curve;
non-linearity is 1y.. LSB yet the curve is smooth and
monotonic.

FIGURE 6.

Differential Non-Linearity, indicates the difference between actual analog voltage change and the ideal (1 LSB)
voltage change at any, code change of a DAC. For
example, a DAC with a 1.5 LSB step at a code change
would be said to exhibit ~ LSB differential non,linearity (see figures 6 and 7). Differential non-linearity
may be expressed in fractional bits or in % FS.
Differential linearity specs are just as important as'lin·
earity specs because the apparent quality of a converter
curve can be'significantly affected by differential nonlinearity even though the linearity spec is· good. Figure 6
shows a curve with a ±~ LSB linearity 'and ±1 LSB
differential non-linearity while figure 7 shows a curve
with +1 y.. LSB linearity and ,±~ LSB differential non·
linearity. In many user applications,'the curve of figure 7
would be preferred over that of figure 6 because the
curve is smoother. The differential non-linearity spec
describes the smoothness of a curve; therefore it is of
great importance to the user. A gross example of differential non-linearity is shown in figure 8 where the
linearity spec is ±1 LSB and the differential linearity
spec is ±2 LSB. The effect is to allow a transfer curve
with grossly degraded resolution; the normal a·step curve
is reduced to 3 steps in figure a. Similarly, a 16·step
curve (4·bit converter! with only 2 LSB differential nonlinearity could be reduced to 6 steps (a 2.6-bit conver·
ter?). The real message is, "Beware of the specs."
Do not ignore or omit differential linearity characteristics on .a converter unless the linearity spec is tight
enough to guarantee the desired differential linearity. As
this characteristic is impractical to measure on a production basis, it is rarely, if ever, specified, and linearity is
the primary specified parameter. Differential non·linear·
ity can always be as much as twicethe non-linearity, but
no more.

Linearity specs refer to either ADCs or to DACs, and do
not include q'uantizing, gain, offset, or scale errors.
Linearity errors are of prime importance along with
differential linearity in either ADC or :DAC specs, as all
other errors (except quantizing, and temperature and
long-term drifts) may be adjusted to zero. Linearity
errors may be expressed in % FS or fractional LSB.

Monotonicity. A monotonic curve has no change in sign
of the sio'pe; thus all' incremental ele';'ents ot' a mono·
tonically increasing curve will have positive or zero, but
never negative slope. The converse is true for decreasing
curves. 'The transfer curve' of a ';'onotonic' DAC will
contain steps of only positive or zero height, and no
negative steps. Thus a smooth line connecting all output
voltage points will contain no peaks or dips. The transfer
function of a monotonic ADC will provide no decreasing
output code for increasing input voltage.

Figure 9 shows a non-monotonic DAC transfer curve.
For the curve to be non-monotonic, the linearity error
must exceed ±y. LSB no' matter by how 'little. The
greater the linearity error, the more significant the
negative step might be. A non·monotonic curve may not
be a special disadvantage in, some systems; however, it is
a disaster 'in closed-loop servo systems of any type
(including a DAC-controlled ADC). A ±'h LSB maximum
linearity spec on an n-bit converter guarantees monotonicity to n bits. A converter exhibiting more than ±'h
LSB non-linearity may ,be monotonic, but is not
l1ecessarily monotonic. For example, a 12·bit DAC with
±'h bit linearity to 1Obits (not ±'h ,LSB) will be monotonic at 10 bits but mayor may not be monotonic at12
bits unless tested and guaranteed to, be 12-bit monotonic .

Settling Time is the elapsed time after a code transition
for DAC output to reach final value within specified
limits, usually ±'h LSB. (See also Conversion Rate below.)
Settling time is 'often listed along with a slew ratespecification; if so, it may not include slew time. If no
slew rate spec is included, the settling time spec must be
expected to include slew time. Settling time is usually
summed with slew time to obtain total elapsed time for
the output to settle to final value. F:igure' 10 delineates
that part of the total'ehipsed time whIch is considered to
be slew, and that part which is settlirig time. It is,
apparent from this figure that' the total time is greater
for a major than for a minor code change due to
amplifier slew limitations, but settling time may also be
,different depending upqn amplifier overload recovery
characteristics.
Slew Rate is an inherent limitation of the output
amplifier in a DAC which limits the rate, of .change of
output voltage after code ,tran~itions. Slew rat~ is u~ually
anywhere from 0.2 to several hundred volts/Ils.' Delay in
reaching final vaiu'e of DAC output voltage is the sum of
slew time and settl!ng time as' shown in figure '10.
Overshoot and Glitches 'occur whenever a code transition
occ\Us in a DAC. There are two causes. The 'current
output of a DAC contains switching glitches due to
possible asynchronous switching of the bit' currents
(expected to be worst at half·scale transition when all

14-4

DAC Slew and Settling Time

bits are 'switched). These glitches are- normally of
extremely short duration but could be of 'h scale
amplitude. The current switching glitches are generally
somewhat attenuated at the voltage output of the DAC
because the output amplifier is unable to slew at a very
high rate; they are, however,' partially coupled around
the amplifier via the amplifier feedback network and
seen at the output. The output amplifier introduces
overshoot and some non-critically damped ringing which
may' be minimized but not entirely eliminated except at
the expense of slew rate and settling time.
Temperature Coefficient of the various components of a
DAC or ADC can produce or increase any of the several
errors as the operating temperature varies. Zero scale
offset error can change due to the TC of the amplifier
and comparator input offset voltages and currents. Scale
error can occur due to shifts in the reference, changes in
ladder resistance or non-compensating RC product shifts
in'dual-slope ADCs, changes in beta or reference current
in current switches, changes in amplifie'r bias current, or
drift in amplifier gain-set resistors. Linearity and monotonicity of the DAC, can be affect!!d by differential
temperature drifts of the ladder resistors and switches.
Overshoot, settling time, and slew rate can be affected
by temper.atLire'due to internal change in amplifier gain
and bandwidth. In short, every specification except
resolution 'and quantizing error can be affected by
temperature changes:'

l>
Z
Long-Term Drift, due mainly to resistor and semiconductor aging can affect all those characteristics which
temperature change can affect. Characteristics most
commonly affected are linearity, monotonicity, scale,
and offset. Scale change due to reference aging is usually
the most important change.
Supply Rejection relates to the ability of a DAC 'or ADC
to maintain scale, offset, TC, slew rate, and linearity
when the supply voltage is varied. The reference must, of
course, remain constant unless considering a multiplying
DAC. Most affected are current sources (affecting
linearity and scale) and amplifiers or comparators
(affecting offset and slew rate). Supply rejection is
usually specified only as a % FS change at or near full
scale at 25° C.
Conversion Rate is the speed at which an ADC or DAC
can make repetitive data conversions. It is affected by
propagation delay in counting circuits, ladder switches
and comparators; ladder RC and amplifier settling times;_
amplifier and comparator slew rates; and integrating time
of dual-slope converters. Conversion rate is specified as a
number of conversions per second, or conversion time is
specified as_ a number of microseconds to complete one
conversion (including the effects of settling time). Sometimes, conversion rate is specified for less than full
resolution, thus showing a misleading (high) rate.
Clock Rate is the minimum or maximum pulse rate at
which ADC counters may be driven. There is a fixed
relationship between the minimum conversion rate and
the clock rate depending upon the converter accuracy
and type. All factors which affect conversion rate of an
ADC limit the clock rate.

coded system. For example, a 12·bit BCD system has a
resolution of only 1 part in 1000 compared to 1 part in
4096 for a binary system. This represents a l,oss in
resolution of over 4:1.
Offset Binary is a natural binary code except that it is
offset (usually Yo scale) in order to represent negative and
positive values. Maximum negative scale is represented to
be all "zeros" while maximum positive scale is represented
as all "ones." Zero scale (actually center scale) is then
represented as a leading "one" and all remaining "zeros."
The comparison with binary is shown in figure 11.
Twos Complement Binary is an alternate and more
widely used code to represent negative values. With this
code, zero arlCj positive values' are represented as in
natural binary while all negative values are represented
in a twos complement form. That is, the twos comple·
ment of a number represents a negative value so that
interface to a computer or microprocessor is simplified.
The -twos complement is formed by complementing each
bit and then adding a 1; any overflow is neglected. The
decimal number -8 is represented in twos complement
as follows: 'start with binary code of decimal 8 (off
scale for. ± representation in 4 bits so not a val id code in
the ± scale of 4 bits) which is 1000; complement it to
0111; add 0001 to get 1000. The comparison with offset
binary is shown in figure 11. Note that the offset binary
representation of the ± scale differs from the twos
complement representation only in that the MSB is
complemented. The conversion from offset binary to
twos complement only requires that the MSB be inverted.

CODES

Complementary Binary (or Inverted Binary) is the
negative true binary system. It is identical to the binary
code except that all binary. bits are inverted. Thus, zero
scale is all "ones" wl1ile full scale is all ";leros."
Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) is the representation of
decimal numbers in binary form. It is useful in ADC
systems intended to drive decimal displays. Its advantage
over decimal is that only 4 lines are needed to represent
10 digits. The disadvantage of coding DACs or ADCs in
BCD is that a full 4 bits could represent 16 digits while
only 10 are represented in BCD. The full·scale resolution
of a BCD coded system is less than that of a binary

Input Impedance of an ADC describes the load placed

Several types of DAC input or ADC output codes are in
common use. Each has its advantages depending upon
the system interfacing the converter. Most codes are
binary in form; each is described anc;l compared below.
Natural Binary (or simply Binary) is the usual 2 n code
with 2, 4, 8, 16, ... , 2 n progression. An input or output
high or "1" is considered a signal, whereas a "0" is
considered an absence of signal. This is a positive true
binary signal. Zero scale is then all "zeros" while full
scale is all "ones."

CONCLUSION

Once the user has a working knowledge of DAC or ADC
char~cteristics, and specifications, he should be able to
select a converter to suit a specific system need. The
likelihood of overspecification, and therefore an unnecessarily high cost, is likewise reduced. The user will
also' be aware that specific parameters, test conditions,
test circuits, a'nd even definitions may vary from
manufacturer to manufacturer. For practical production
reasons, parameters may not be tested in the same
manner for all converter types, even those supplied by
the same manufacturer. Using information in this note,
the user should, however, be able to sort out and under- .stand those specifications (from' any manufacturer)
pertinent to 'his needs.

INTRODUCTION
The need of interfacing several analog data channels to
computers has not escaped the attention· of the data
system firms. There are presently available a number of
data acquisition units (DAUs) which will directly interface 8-64 analog data channels to one or more types of
computers or microcomputers, and more appear on the
market almost monthly. Some of these DAUs are even
constructed to plug into the mainframe of the cOt!1puter
for which they are designed. Nearly all of these commercially available DAUs are of more or less ·conventional design, operating in either a r~ndom' channel
address or sequential address mode. Figure 1 shows a
typical functional· diagram of such a random channel
address DAU. Its advantages are simplicity, straightforward design, and comparatively low cost (depending
upon performance and .special features). In operation,
the computer addresses a specific channel, the analog
multiplexer (MUX) is set to the desired channel, a
sample and hold (S&H) circuit acquires and holds the
analog signal, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
digitizes the signal, a ready signal is returned to the
computer, and the data is presented to the data bus via
TRI-STATE® bus drivers. If the data is 12-bit and the
data bus is 8-bit, the data word must be broken into two
bytes and addressed separately. The prime disadvantage
of these DAU designs is that the computer must either
enter a wait mode while data is readied or it can proceed
with its assigned task, watch for a data-ready flag signal,
and return for the data.

MUX

From the standpoint of microprocessor system design,
it is clearly desirable to access input data as if it were
main memory. It is further desirable that input data
access time be equivalent to that of main memory so that
the processor need not enter a wait mode while data is
readied for input. One attractive method of accomplishing this is to use one AID converter (of a type containing
TR I-STATE output data latches) on each input data
channel. Henceforth I shall refer to this as parallel
conversion. Figure 2 shows such a system containing only
an address decoder and multiple AID converters with all
outputs wired in parallel onto the data bus:. Note the
absence of S&H modules.
The advantages of this DAU system are the immediate
data access and its simplicity. However; one's first
thought on considering a parallel-conversion system
might be that the cost of ADCs would exclude their
consideration. on a one-per-~hannel basis. But, although
this may hav~ been true in the past, currently available
monolithic and hybrid ADCs are priced such that this
system concept is entirely feasible. Furthermore, the
.converter price trend is definitely downward as more
monolithic units are released, so the economic feasibility
can only improve in the next few years, thus extending
the application to an ever larger segment of the market.
The ideal converter for use in the system of Figure 1
includes co~verter, cornparator, and buffered TR I-STATE
output data latches in one package. The unit would

mined from Figure 4. Sixteen channels of 10Hz data
could be available if each channel were sampled once
every 20ms. This is a data throughput rate of 16ch x
1120ms = 800Hz., The higher cost DAUs of this type
have capability of 50-100kHz throughput rates. However,
if the computer waits while. data is made ready, it will be

The parallel conversion DAU without S&H 'circuits is
destined to operate on low-bandwidth data as' indicated
in Figure 4.' To be economically feasible the ADCs must
be of low cost. This means an 8- or 10-bit successive
approximation register (SAR) or a 12-bit integrating
monolithic ADC must be used. New ADC designs using
tracking counters could ,increase data bandwidth capability over that possible witl:l SAR counters., For purely
economic reasons, then, use of parallel·conversion DAU
sy~tems will be limited:to low bandwidth data - 10-30 Hz
on 8·bit, 2-5 Hz on 10-bit, and less than 1 Hz on 12-bJt
systems. These bandwidth figures for 8- to 10-bit systems
could be considerably improve'd, say by 8-,10 times, if
tr'acking converters were used in place of SAR conv~rters.
This definitely suggests that there is a need for low-cost
tracking converters. Note that S&H circuits ani not
needed in the parallel-conversion systems.

FIGURE 5. Conventional DAU for 8080

The future trends' in DAU designs will include an
increasing number of paralhil-cohv,ersion DAUs, especially as cost reductions appear on' monolithic ADCs with
TRI-STATE output circuits (or latches). We should also
start to see some tracking converters in the low-cost
monolithics with TRI-STATE, output data- latches.'
Expect to see multiplexed DAUs' with memory appearing
in the near futwe. Its simplicity from a circuit and
software standpoint cannot long go unnoticed.
RANDOM ADDRESSED t;>ATA ACQUlsrTioN UNIT
A conventional, random-addressed, 16-channel, 12-bit
DAU is diagrammed in Figure 5. The analog section
contains a 16-channel analog multiplexer, a sample-andhold block, and a 12-b,it ADC. A more complete system
might contain a differential multiplexer and/or a differential (or il"!strumentation) amplifier preceding the S&H
block. The data output circuits are arranged to interface
an 8-bit data bus as found on an 8080 or 6800 microcomputer (/-IC). Since the data word is 12 bits, the /-IC
must accept it in two' 8-bit bytes, Normally the /-IC would
address the DAU with two consecutive address locations
corresponding to a 0 and a 1 at the address LSB to load
the two bytes of data. The DM8123 multiplexers are
ideally suited to this use. They have TRI-STATE output
circuits, and the chaFmel-select input, may be directly
driven from the address LSB. If a 16-bit address bus were
being' interfaced, such as in the PACE /-IC; the output
multiplexers would be ,replaced with DM8097 or equivalent TRI-STATE output buffers (see Figure 11). In
both instances, low-power versions of these parts, the
DM81 L23 and DM80L97, could be used to ,drive a
lightly loaded dpta bus. '
The address decoding, is accomplished with a DM8161
6-bit magnitude comparator 10Clking at the six most
significant address bits. These 6 bits are compared with
an address code hard wired into a DIP header, which can
be different for each DAU card in, a system. Comparing
only 6 address' bits allows a possible 64 cards in a

single system and uses up to 64 pages of memory
position. If this is not satisfactory, two address compara·
tors ORed together (DM8163) could select from 12 bits
of address. The magnitude comparator(s) plus the four
address lines to the 16·ch MUX make up the complete
address decoding. The, output of the magnitude comparator(s) indicates when this DAU has been addressed, and
the four address lines to the MUX sele,ct the 1·of-16
,channels of this DAU.
This circuit is designed to interface the 8080 /-IC. Thus,
a'memory read command MRDC must be received, and
an 'acknowledgement XACK must be issued to indicate
"when data is ready. Operation is' as follows: A valid
address on address lines A-F causes comparator output
to go low. This gates the inputs of the quad D latch to
accept the 1-of-16 address word from address lines 14.
At the occurrence of MRDC the address is clocked into
the quad D latch and presented 'to the 16-ch MUX which
selects the addressed channel. When 0: and M RDC are
both low, the output of' OR gate A goes low, which
enables the XACK signal buffer. If the address LSB is 0
(byte 1 of a 2-byte data request), OR gate B output goes
low to trigger a one-shot.

o

The one-shot circuits are a simple means of timing the
sample period and the converter start cpmmands. There
are other methods (see Figure 15) of accomplishing this
timing without the 'hazards associated with one-shot
circuits; however, the simplicity of this scheme lends'
, itself to easy understanding of the timing required. The
first one-shot generates a sample pulse of 5-30/-ls as
required for the S&H to acquire and settle to 0.01 % of
value. Its 0' output presets the single D latch (0 = 1).
The trail,ing edge of this,pulse returns the S&H to HOLD
condition and triggers the next one-shot to generate a
start conversion' command of about 3/-1s. When the ADC
completes conversion, its CC output goes low, thus
clocking a 0 into the single D latch to reset its Q output
low. Both inputs to OR gate C now being low will
enable the output MUX and return a low on the XACK
14-10

line ilJdicating to the IlC that data is ready. Address
LSB = 0 selects the 8 LSB of the data word for presen·
tation to the data bus. A subsequent address with LSB
= 1 selects the 8 MSB of the data word, but wi II not
trigger the one·shot or preset the D latch because the
output of OR gate B will remain high. Since the output
of OR gates A and ,C will be low, XACK is returned and
the output MUXs are enabled to present byte 2 of the
data word on the data bus. When MRDC returns high,
the output circuits are disabled. If the 6·bit comparator
does not see a valid address, no action is taken by the
DAU.
This represents the simplest possible DAU f9r interfacing
to computers. The interface to the 8080 is one of the
simplest. Only minor modifications are required to
interface, for example, the 6800 or PACE IlCS (see
Figures 9 and 11). The only timing anomaly in the logic
system shown is that when the XACK buffer is enabled
there will be a 10·40ns pulse of 0 output. The computer,
however, does not act on an XACK signal at this time
and so will enter a wait mode until XACK is returned
later on.
The analog signal section has purposely been omitted
from this discussion of interfacing to processors because
its details will depend upon analog signal levels. the'
possible requirement for differential channels, the pos·
sible need of. an instrumentation amplifier following the
multiplexer, and S&H timing requirements. The analog
section of the DAU may be made up of various com·
ponents, depending upon the required performance and
,operating conditions. A pair of 8·channel multiplexers
will. give the flexibility of connecting as differential
8·channel or as single ended 16·channel whereas a single
16·channel MUX with space and wiring on the board for
another 16·channel MUX would allow for either 32
channels or, 16 differential channels. A pair of AM3705s
could be used for lowest cost where analog signals are no
greater than ±5V. The S&H circuit couid be monolithic
LF198, hybrid LH0023, LH0043 or LH0053, made up
of individual discrete and integrated circuits, or it could
be any of several available modules.

The ADC used in this system may be of a conventional
design with speed and accuracy being the only important
technical considerations. No special TR I·STATE output
or output data latches are needed as the data is latched
in the register until a new start conversion (SCI command
is given. The ADC could be made up of an AD1200 ADC
building block plus DM2504 or MM74C905 successive·
approximation register, it could be an' AD1210 plus
LH0071 reference and appropriate MOS·TTL and TTL·
MOS buffers, or it could be anyone of a number of
other ADCs on the market.
Total power is about 2.8 watts and cost is about $9.50
per channel for components as indicated in Table 1.
Note that output drivers are standard TTL circuits
whereas low power TTL may be used for lower power
dissipation where a lightly loaded data bus is to be
driven.
PARALLEL·CONVERSION OATA ACQUISITION
UNIT
Parallel data conversion is likely the simplest possible IlC
data system concept which will eff~ct immediate access
to latest input data as if it were main memory. It rt:1ay be
treated as main memory by the processor and is only
slightly more complex than the simplified system of
Figure 2. The individual ADCs in Figure 2 include TRI·
STATE output for direct wire ORing on the data bus.
However, to make each capable of driving a heavily
loaded system bus would require significant and un·
necessary power dissipation in each ADC. Accordingly,
except in minimally loaded systems, a separate set of
TR I·STATE TTL output data buffers would be added to
Figure 2. Small differences in the address decoder and
control circuits will exist, depending upon which IlC
system will be used.
The control circuits are exceptionally simple, being
required primarily to accept the memory read command
and to return a memory ready signal. The most complex
part of the control circuits is that required of IlC systems
which accept data in two 8·bit bytes rather than in one
16·bit byte, yet even this added complexity is minimal.

FIGURE 7. 16-Ch, 12-Bit Parallel·Conversion DAU for 8080

As 12-bit data is likely of greater interest in the market,
the remainder of the discussion will consider the logic
necessary to handle 12-bit data. Accordingly, Figure 7
shows a 16-channel, 12-bit parallel-conversion DAU for
the BOBO. No part number designation appears on the
ADCs because they are hypothectical units possessing
the characteristics considered desirable in this application. The converters contain the DAC switches, ladder
network, comparator, up/down counter (for tracking
conversion). control logic, and TRI-STATE buffered
outputs. They operate continuously with the output
data buffer updated at the end of each conversion. Such
a converter containing CMOS logic could settle in less
than 1-4/ls (after an initial but longer acquisition period)
without being costly to construct, and would thus
provide i 2-bit accuracy to ±'I:z LSB at data bandwidth
of 10-20 Hz. A single external buffered reference could
suffice for all converter channels. An external gated
clock could drive all converters. Address decoding is the
same as outlined for the B-bit system. The LSB address
bit is used to select byte 1 or byte 2 of the 12-bit

output data word by means of the two DMB123 quad,
TRI-STATE, 2-input multiplexers. Address bits 1-4 are
decoded into 1-of-16 select bits to enable the TRISTATE output of the selected ADC. Since the 1·of-16
output select of the DM75L 154A decoder is 0 true, it is
desirable that the ADC enable input be 0 true. Otherwise,
16 inverters would be required. The control timing may
be considered in reference to the BOBO timing requirements shown in Figure B.
The DMB131 address comparator provides an output to
gate the 4:16 decoder and to enable the DMB093 quad
TRI-STATE line driver. This occurs (+30ns) only if the
address is valid for this data card. If the address is valid, ,
the 4: 16 decoder accepts the address and the DMB093
is set to accept'the MRDC command at inputs 5 and 6
(+250 ns). The decoder output to the ADC enable lines
is available (+1 BOns). and valid data is available frofl) the
selected ADC (+330ns). As the data card must return a
data ready signal (+440ns) to prevent extending the
memory access cycle, the DMB093 transmits the MRDC

advance of the time required. A 0 is placed on the XACK
line for the duration of the MRDC command. The
MRDC signal also enables the output multiplexer enable
lines (+300ns) via the DMB093. This signal also interrupts the clock drive to the ADCs to prevent a change in
data output during the remainder of the memo~y read
cycle. A desirable built-in design feature of the ADC for
this application might be a clock inhibit or data transfer
inhibit operating from the EN input: Valid data is
,present on the data bus (+460ns) at least 200ns before
it is require~. Valid data remains stable until the end of
the MRDC command when XACK and data output lin'es

Total address decode, control, clock, and output drive
logic circuitry is contained in six DII' circuits (only one
of 24 pins). To this must be added a code-select header,
a reference, and 16 converters. Total power required is
4.2 watts for 16 channels of 12-bit data from ±5 V analog
signals of 10Hz bandwidth (see Table 3). Low Power
TTL output drive capability would reduce power drain
by 370mW. Total cost of parts (assuming a future price
of $251 ADC) would run to about $26 per channel
(see Table 4).

placed on the remaining data lines. For 2s complement
binary data' coding of ± input analog signals, the 12th
bit would be inverted and extended to the remaining
data lines so that signals would appear as valid data to
the microprocessor.

6800 Interface
by ANDing the VMA and R/W signals together in a
TRI·STATE 2·input .AND gate. When enabled by the
comparator output, this gate returns a READY signal to
the J.!C and enables the output multiplellers. The
appropriate data byte is selected by the LSB address bit
as with the 8080 system. The necessary 10 ns data hold
time is provided by the ADC and output multiplexer
disable delays. The remainder of the DAU is identical to
that of Figure 7. Cost and power required are also
similar to those of the 8080 system interface.

For other J.!C systems, the logic will change slightly.
Figure 9 shows the logic section of the DAU of Figure 7
modified as necessary to interface· with the 6800 !lC.
The 6800 timing and control signals are shown in Figure
10. With the 6800, the address information, the valid
memory address VMA signal, and the read/write W/R
signal all come up approximately simultaneously and
remain for about one clock period of 1J.!S (min.). The
data need not appear on the data bus until lOOns
thereafter. The valid address decoding is accomplished

PACE 'Interface

ADC CHARACTERISTICS'

Figure 11 shows the logic section of the DAU of Figure
7' modified to interface with a PACE !lC. The PACE
timing is shown in Figure 12. Since the PACE!lC has but
a single address/data bus, address latches are required for
address decoding. The DM8131 address comparator
contains' output latches, but the DM74L154A 4:16
decoder does not, so a quad latch is inserted ahead of the
4: 16 decoder. The latches all set on the rising edge of
the NADS signal provided by PACE during the time that
address information is on the bus, and drop 'out on the
next NADS signal. Comparat«;lr output applied to gate
the 4:16 decoder provides an enable ADC signal lasting
until the falling edge of the nex't NADS pulse. The IDS
signal ANDed with the comparator output enables the
TRI-STATE output buffers and inhibits the clock. An
additional MSB inverter would be needed for ± analog
signals in order to provide the 2s complement code.
Total address decode, control, clock, and output drive
circuitry is contained in seven DIP packages, one more
than required for the 8080 system interface. Total power
and cost are comparable to those given for the 8080
system interface.
'

The ADC for use on a parallel-converSion DAU must
contah, TRI-STAIE output data latches. Otherwise it
may be conventional. The MM5357 was designed for
direct connection to a data bus, therefore it contains the
necessary output latches. At this writing there are other
ADCs with the TR I-STATE, output latches appearing on
the market. and more can be expected. The MM5357 is
nearly ideal for use in an 8-bit parallel-conversion DAU.
It would be even more suitable to this use 'if it were a
tracking converter, and the polarity of its enable input
and of its data output were of opposite polarity. The
data polarity is of lesser importance as the bus drivers
probably needed may as well be inverting as non-inverting
except for common usage. The enable polarity should
match the decoder output to obviate the need for 16
inverters (3 logic packages. though of little cost). See the
later discussion of ADC hardware for additional thoughts
on this subject.
This parallel-conve~sion data system has data bandwidth
limited to about 10Hz for 8-bit SAR converters, but
may be increased to 150-300 Hz with 8-bit tracking

Data, on, each channel is sampled and ,held in the Sl!tH

timing signals of Figure 14. The conversion-complete CC

sample period_ At the completion of the sample period,
the S&H goes into hoid mode 'and a third one-shot
generates a 3ps start conversion SC pulse. When the
DAU is in the command read mode, a 0 appears at B, '

An ,alternate sequencing circuit without one-shot circuits
is shown in Figure 15 with timing relationships in
"Figure 16. It makes use of a shift register and exclusiveOR gates to generate the gates' needed to write into
memory, sample and hold, and start conversion. The
AD'C clock is genenitect at twice the desired Cl'ock
frequency and divided by 2 in a D flip-flop. In this
manner, the 'minimum gate width is 1/4.of the ADC
clock period (620ns in this example). The CC signal is
clocked into a 0 flip-flop .with a delay of 620ns. The
delayed output clears the shift register (SR) and is
clocked in'to the SR after an' additional 620ns delay_
An exclusive-OR of the SR' input and Q1 output
generates a 620ns gate to write data into the HAMs_
The trailing edge of this WE gate clocks the'" 16 counter
to advance the MUX and RAM address to the next
channel. Exciusive-ORing of SR 01 and 07 produces an
8.75ps samplEi gate. (If the acquisition and settling time
of the S&H is greater than 8.75ps, additional circuit
complexity is required.) 'ExclLJsive-ORing of 07 and 08
produces a synchronized 1.251.ls gate to start the ADC.
This circuit may not be the most versatile or elegant for
the purpose. For those applications with longer S&H
acquisition times or other requirements, some alternate
~ircuit may be designed if that of Figure' 15 is
unacceptable .

CONVERTER CHARACTERISTICS

The /l-computer interfaces shown in Figures 17 and 18
are similar to that of Figure 5_ The PACE interface is seen
to be slightly less complex than that of Figure 17 for
8-bit data-bus machines. A single DAU card with plug·in
or strap options could be built to interface any of the
three /lCS considered. Such a universal circuit is shown
in Figure 19. This circuit also includes an option to
provide binary output for unipolar analog signals or
complementary binary output for ± signals. In the case
of binary output, the 13-16th data bits are set to O. In
the case of complementary binary, the sign bit is'
extended to the 13·16thdata bits for valid recognition by
the /lC.

Each approach to the DAU requires different characteristics of the ADC. Table 6 summarizes the requirements
for each of the three DAU types. The sequential or
addressed DAU types require similar ADCs. If the
conventional addressed DAU must utilize bus drivers,
the 'desired ADC characteristics are identical to those for
the sequential DAU with memory. Only the parallelconversion DAU is seen to require buffered TR I-STATE
output latches.
By far the most important characteristic of an ADC for
use in a parallel-conversion DAU is that it have buffered
TR I-STATE output latches. It is desirable that it also
have the other characteristics checked in Table 6. Items
1 and 2 are by far the most important of the desired
characteristics. The need for item 1 has been discussed. '
TTL compatible control and data signals are desirable so

required between the ADC and, the rest of the system.
Dual output strobing makes it possible to wire-OR
interface directly to an 8-bit data bus or to use only an
8-line buffer without the need for the output multi-

The total dissipation is 3.5 watts and c<;lst is $11 per
channel as shown in Table 5. Botti are only slightly
greater than those for the conventional DAU.
The ADC desired for this application is similar to the
conventional ADC except that the ADC data output
should be complementary to compensate for the data
inversion within the RAMs. The AD1210 or AD1200 are
thus ideal choices for an ADC in the multiplexed DAU
with memory.

The National MM5357 is the choice for an 8-bit ADC
having buffered TR I-STATE output latches and TTL
compatibility when converting ±5 or 0-5V analog inputs,
If converting 0·10V inputs, it becomes 10V CMOS:
compatible. Several monolithic ADCs of 8 to 12 bits
have been announced. These monolithic converters and
future versions of them promise to bring converter
prices down to a level which will make parallel·conversion
economically feasible. Several hybrid converters have
also been announced with attractive prices; however, it is
the monolithics which promise the lowest ultimate cost.
Features of several of these 'new products are compared
in Table 7. Although only the MM5357 and the AD7550
are suitable in present form, their prices and characteristics show that the desired attributes are and will be
possible at the needed prices,

plexers shown in Figure 5 et. al., although a separate
buffer is required in most systems. Tracking operation
provides the higher speed useful in a conversion circuit
without an S&H. Inhibiting data transfer to output data
latches when the output is enabled prevents changing the
output code while data is being read f~om the data bus.
This function can be accomplished with an external gate,
but could be convenient if handled within the ADC
logic. Straight binary (not complemented) output is
desired for all pC interfaces (except the 8080 when
operating with Intel system bus drivers and receivers).
As it may be necessary to add TR I-STATE line drivers
to drive the data bus, data inversion can be' handled by
inverting buffers when required. The availability of both
Q and Q outputs on the MSBsimplifies data readout as
binary or 2s complement without adding an external
inverter. Table 6 has been arranged in the approximate
order of preference for parallel-conversion DAU use; the
preference will be different for multiplexed data.

A two-chip approach would likely be the choice today.
We will certainly see some .of these desired design
features appearing on ADCs in the near future.

design meets all the goals of Table 6. It could run at a
clock rate of 0.25-1 MHz (1-4lls conversion time)
because it is a tracking converter, it contains TRI·
STATE buffered output data latches, the separate high
and low bit·enable lines allow two·byte operation of an
B·bit data bus, the output latches will 'not change state
when the output is enabled, and the CC and SC
terminals may be strapped for continuous conversion
without missing a clock period. An B- or 1O·bit converter
and possibly a 12-bit converter of this type could be
built on' a single chip without much difficulty. If not,
a hybrid or two·chip design is practical. Where speed is
not of importance, monolithic 10· or 12-bit converters
can be built with integr~ting or voltage-to· frequency
conversion techniques. The· integrating technique possibly allows the greatest accuracy with the least circuitry,
and is a prime contender for the application. As the
integrating ADC utilizes both linear and digital circuits,
it is normally of multi-chip design. However, as technology advances, it will become increasingly practical to
produce the low-drift, low-offset amplifiers, integrators,
and current sources required of a 12-bit ADC on a single
reasonably small chip along with the necessary logic.

As far as ADCs and DACs are concerned, the entire
makeup of their internal logic sections is differeni: from
that of conventional converters of today (except for the
MM5357 and AD7550). Tables 6 and 8 outline the
desired characteristics of AD~s and DACs for parallel-,
conversion and multiplexed systems. Figures 20 and 21'
indicate the logic .required. The ADC of Figure 20 is
suitable for relatively high speed data acquisition without
S&H circuits, while that of Figure 21 is suitable for
slowly varying data only.

,

DATA DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
Until now, the discussion has centered entirely around
the data acquisition end of the system. At first thought,
the data distribution may seem almost trivial. However,

FIGURE 21_ V-F ADC for Parallel-Conversion DAU

circuits on each channel reconverted to analog form_
Such a system could benefit from a DAC with input data
latches and separate (double-byte) input gating' or
strobing controls while a parallel-conversion DDU has
even more need of these input characteristics_
The parallel-conversion DDU shown in Figure 22 would,
if constructed with available DACs, require 12-bit input
data latches ahead of each DAC_ The characteristics
desired of a DAC for this use are listed in Table 8_ High
impedance digital inputs prevent loading the data bus
while a strobed input data latch allows entering data
only in the addressed DAC and holding it until updated
(thus performing the function of DAC and S&H)_
Separate input data strobes for low and high bits are
used for the same reason as with the ADC, for alternate
enabling on successive input data bytes_ Figure 23 outlines the desired DAC for use in a parallel-conversion
DDU_
The DDU address decoding and complexity is similar to
that of the DAU_ Input data strobing separated as 8 LSB
and the remaining MSB is an adva,ntage when used on
8-bit data bus systems_ The cost per channel is essentially
that of the DAC used_ Likewise, for power dissipation_
Practicality will be entirely dependent on ultimate cost
of the converters_ Advantages over a demultiplexed
system are that only minimal output filters are required
and that an output ampl ifier per channel is not required
(already exists in each DAC)_

type of DAU is extremely attractive at this time because
the DAU cost per channel is essentiaily that of an ADC
which is as low as $8 in lots of 100_
It would seem that the multiplexed DAU with memory
exhibits all of the advantages of the conventional
random-addressed DAU plus all those of the parallel data
conversion DAU except that the data in any specific
channel may be older_ Offsetting this single comparative
disadvantage are significantly lower cost per channel,
lower power requirements, and no requirement for
special ADCs with buffered output latches_ The multiplexed approach with memory is only slightly more
complex or costly than a standard DAU, yet it brings
'the great advantage of high-speed immediate data access
with significant cost savings over the parallel conversion
technique_
Although the character of an ADC or DAC used in a
parallel-conversion data system differs markedly from
those used in the usual multiplexed data system, the
processor interface requirements are similar qr identical.
The sense of Jic bus control signals is of relativE\ly minor
importance so long as they are standardized among the
several f-LC units available_ Positive-true data and address
signals are possibly a slight advantage over, zero-true'
signals when TR I-STATE circuits are used_ For the
multiplexed system described, data inversion through
the RAM would suggest the advantage of complementary
binary output data' from an ADC_
Conventional ADCs and DACs available today (except
the MM5357 and AD7550) do not have the characteristics needed for parallel-conversion systems_ However,
this picture is changing as more units are designed for
direct data bus interface_ Fortunately, however, the
multiplexed DAU with memory does not require the bus
oriented type of ADC_ The're is at least one available
DAC which includes the dual-strobed input data latches
suggested for direct data bus interface; I would expect to
see others appearing in future designs, both monolithic
and hybrid_

CONCLUSION
Each type of DAU described exhibits unique advantages
as indicated in the comparisons of Table 9_
Further reduction in the costs of monolithic converters
will make the parallel-conversion type of DAU attractive
where low-speed data is handled_ For 8-bit data, this

circuits ,is the isolation diode inherent in any junction·
isolated integrated circuit. The zener may be used with
or without ,the temperature stabilizer powered. The only
operating restriction is that the isol~tion diode must
nElVer become forward biased and the zener must not be
biased above the 40V breakdown of the isolation diode.

07 is provided as base drive to a Darlington composed of
, Oland 02: The Oarli ngton is connected across the
supply and initially draws 140 mA (set by current limit
transistor 03). As the chi p heats, the turn on voltage for
04 decreases and 04 starts to conduct. At about 90°C
th~ current through 04 appreciably increases and less
drive is applied to 01 and 02. Power dissipation decreases
to whatever is necessary to hold the chip at the stabillza·
tion temperature. In this manner, the chip temperature
,is regulated to better than 2°C for'a 100°C temperature
range.

The actual circuit is shown in Figure 3. The temperature
stabilizer is composed of 01 through 09. FEt 09
provides' current to zener 02 and 08. Current through
08 turns a loop consisting of 01, 05, 06, 07, Rl and
R2. About 5V is applied to the top of Rl from the base
of 07. This causes 400llA to flow through the divider
R1, R2. Transistor 07 has a controlled gain of 0.3 giving
07 a total emitter current of about 5001lA. This flows
through 'the emitter of 06 and drives another controlled
gain PNP transistor 05. The gain of 05 is'about 0.4 so
01 is driven' with· about 2001lA. Once current flows
througH 05, 08 is reverse biased and the loop is' self·
s'ustaining. This circuitry ensures start·up.

The zener section is relatively straight·forward. A buried
zener 03 breaks down biasing the base of transistor 013:-'
Transistor 013 drives two buffers 012 and 011. External
current changes through the circuit are fully absorbed
by the buffer transistors rather than 03. Current through
03 is held constant at 250llA by a 2k resistor across the
emitter base of 013 while the emitter-base voltage of
013 nominally temperature compensates the reference
voltage.

The resistor divider applies 400 mV to the base of 04
while 07 supplies 120llA to its collector. At temperatures
below the stabilizati.on point, 400 mV is insufficient to
cause 04 to con'duct. Thus, all the collector current from

The other 'components, 014, 015 and 016 set the
operating current of 013. Frequency compensation is
accomplished with two junction capacitors .

PERFORMANCE
A polysulfone thermal shield, shown in Figure 4, is
supplied with the LM199 to minimize power dissipation
and improve temperature regulation. Using a thermal
shield as well as the small, high thermal resistance TO-46
package allows operation at low power levels without
the problems of special IC packages with built·in thermal
isolation. Since the LM199 is made on a standard IC
assembly line with standard assembly techniques, cost is
significantly lower than if special techniques were used.
For temperature stabilization only 300 mW are required
at 25°C and 660 mW at "-55°C.

TIME (MINUTES)

FIGURE 4. Polysulfone Thermal Shield

Temperature stabilizing the device at 90°C virtually
eliminates temperature drift at ambient temperatures
less than 90°C. The reference is nominally temperature
compensated and the thermal regulator further decreases
the temperature drift. Drift is typically only 0.3 ppm/C.
Stabilizing the temperature at 90°C rather than 125°C
significantly reduces power dissipation but still provides
very low drift over a major portion of the operating
temperature range. Above 90°C ambient, the temperature
'
coefficient is only 15 ppm/C.
,A low drift reference would be virtually useless without
equivalent performance in long term stability and low
noise. The subsurface breakdown technology yields both
of these. Wideband and low frequency noise are both
exceptionally low. Wideband noise ,is shown in Figure 5
and low frequency noise' is shown over a 10 minute
period in the photograph of Figure 6. Peak to peak
noise over a 0.01 Hz to 1 Hz bandwidth is only about
0.7/lV.
Long term stability is perhaps one of the most difficult
. measurements to make. However, conditions for longterm stability measurements on the LM 199 are considerably more realistic than for commercially available
certified zeners. Standard zeners are measured in ±0.05°C
temperature controlled both at an operating current of
7.5 mA ±O.05JJ.A. Further, the standard devices must
have stress-free contacts on the leads and the test must
not be interrupted during the measurement interval. In
contrast, the LM199 is measured in still air of 25°C to
2SoC at a r~verse current of- 1 mA ±0.5%. This is more
typical of actual operating conditions in instruments.
When a group of 10 devices were monitored for longterm stability, the variai:ions all correlated, which- indicates changes in the measurement system (limitation of
20 ppm) rather than the LM199_

Because the planar structure does not exhibit hysteresis

The temperature stabilizer heats the small thermal mass
of the LM199 to 90°C'very quickly. Warm-up time at

APPLICATIONS

I

The only restrictioh on biasing the zener is the bias
applied to the isolation diode.' Firstly, the isolation diode
must not be forward biased. This restricts the voltage at
either terminal of the zener to a voltage equal to or
greater than the V-.
A dc return is needed bet~een the zener and heater to
insure the voltage limitation on the isolation diodes are
not exceeded.' figure 8 shows the basic biasing of the
LM199.
The active circuitry in the reference section of the LM199
reduces the dynamic impedance of the zener to about
0.5U. This is especially useful in biasing the reference.
For example, a standard reference diode such as a 1 N829
operates at 7.5 mA and has a dynamic impedance of
15U. A 1% change in current (75MA) changes the
reference voltage by 1.1 mV. Operating the LM 199 at
1 mA with the same 1% change in operating current
(10MA) results in a reference change of only ,5MV. Figure
9 shows reverse voltage change with current.

The LM199 is easier to use'than standard zeners, but the
temperature stability is so good-even better than precision resistors-that care must be taken to prevent
external circuitry from limiting performance. Basic operation only requires energizing the temperature stabilizer
from a 9V to 40V power'source and biasing the reference
with between 0.5 mA to 10 'mA of current. The low
dynamic impedance minimizes the current regulation
required compared to ordinary zeners.

Biasing current for the reference can be anywhere from
0.5 mA to 10 mA with little change in performance. This
wide current range allows direct repla'cement of most
zener types with no other circuit changes besides the
temperature stabilizer connection. Since the dynamic
impedance is constant with current changes regulation

is better than discrete zeners. For optimu'm regulation,
lower operating current~ are preferred since the ratio of
source resistance to zener impedance is higher, and the
attenuation of input changes is greater. Further, at low
currents, the voltage drop in the wiring is minimized.
Mounting is an important consideration for optimum
performance. Although the thermal shield minimizes
the heat low, the LM199 should not be exposed to a
direct air flow such as from a cooling fan. This can cause
as much as a100% increase in power disSipation degrading
the thermal regulation and increasing the drift. Normal
conviction currents do not degrade, performance.
Printed circuit board layout is also important_ Firstly,
four wire sensing should be used to eliminate ohmic drops
in pc traces. Although the voltage drops are small the
temperature coefficient of the voltage developed along
a copper trace can add significantly to the drift. For
example. a trace with 1U resistance and 2 mA current
flow will develop 2, mV drop. The TC of copper is
o.o04%fC so the 2 mV drop will change at 8MVfc, this
is an additional 1 ppm drift error. Of course, the effects
of voltage drops in the printed circuit traces are eliminated with 4-wire operation. The heater current also
should not be allowed to flow through the voltage
reference traces. Over a -55°C to +125°C temperature

from a single 15V supply. About 1% regulation on the
input supply is adequate 'contributing less than 10llV of
erro~ to the output. Feedback resistors around the LM308
scale the output to 10V.

Thermocouple effects can also cause errors. The kovar
leads from the LM 199 package form a thermocouple
with copper printed circuit board traces. Since the
package of the 199 is heated, there is a heat flow along
the leads of the LM199 package. If the leads terminate
into unequal sizes of copper on the p.c. board greater
heat will be absorbed by the larger copper trace and a
temperature difference will develop. A temperature
difference of 1°C between the two leads of the reference
will generate 'about 301lV. Therefore, the copper traces
to the zener should be equal in, size. This will generally
keep the errors due to thermocouple effects under about

Although the absolute values of the resistors are not
extremely important, tracking of temperature coefficients
is vital. The 1 ppm!"C drift of the LM199 is easily
exceeded by the temperature coefficient of most resistors.
Tracking to better than 1 ppm is also not easy to obtain.
Wirewound types made of Evenohm or Mangamin are
good and also have low thermoelectric effects. Film
types such as Vishay resistors are also, good. Most
potentiometers do not track fixed resistors so it isa good
idea' to minimize the adjustment range and therefonl
minimize their effects on the ou'tput TC. Overall temp.

The LM 199 should be mounted flush on the p.c. board
with a minimum of space between tile thermal shield
and the boards. This minimizes air flow across the kovar
leads on the board surface which also can cause thermo·
couple voltages. Air currents across the leads usually
appear as ultra·low frequency noise of about 10llV to
20llV amplitude.
It is usually necessary to scale and buffer the output of
any reference to some calibrated voltage. Figure 10
shows a simple buffered reference with a 10V output.
The reference is applied to the non·inverting input of the
LM108A. An RC rolloff can be inserted'in series with
the input to the LM 108A to roll·off the high frequency
noise. The zener heater and op amp are all. powered

Figure 11 shows a standard cell replacement with a

1,01 V -output. A LM321 and LM308 are used to minimize op amp drift to less than 1IlVtC. Note the
adjustment connection which minimizes the TC effects
of the pot. Set-up for this circuit requires nulling the
offset of the op amp first and then adjusting for proper
output voltage.
The drift of the LM321 is very predictable and can be
used to eliminate overall drift of the system. The drift
changes at 3.6IlV!"C per millivolt of offset so 1 mV to
2 mV of offset can be introduced to minimize the
overall TC.

For circuits with a wide input voltage range, the reference
can be powered from the output of the buffer as is shown
in Figure 12. The op amp supplies regulated voltage to
the resistor biasing the reference minimizing changes due
to input variation. There is some change due to variation
of the temperature stabilizer voltage so extremely 'wide

the unreguiated' input to insure the circuit starts up

Op amp choice is important for this"circuit. A low drift
device such as the LM108A or a LM108-LM121 combination wi II provide excellent performance. The pot should
be a precision wire wound 10 turn type. 'It should be,
noted that the output of this circuit is not linear.
CONCLUSIONS
A new monolithic reference which exceeds the performance .of conventional zeners has been developed. In fact,
the LM199 performance is limited more by external
components than by reference drift itself. Further, many
of the problems associated with conventional zeners
such as hysteresis, stress sensitivity and temperature
gradient sensitivity have also been eliminated. Finally,
long-term stability and noise are eq~al of the drift
performance of the new device.

output of the op amp is buffered by an Ie power
transistor the LM395. The LM395 operates' as an ,NPN

description
A new IC Zener with low dynamic impedance and wide
operating current range significantly simplifies reference
or regulator circuit design. The low dynamic impedance
provides better regulation against operating current_
changes, easing the requirements on the biasing supply.
Further, the temperature coefficient is independent of
operating current, so that the LM 129 can be used at any
convenient current level. Other characteristics such as
temperature coefficient, noise and long term stability
are equal to or better than good quality discrete Zeners.
The LM129 uses a new subsurface breakdown IC Zener
combined with a buffer circuit to lower dynamic
impedance. The new subsurface Zener has low noise and
excellent long term stability since the breakdown is in
the bulk of the silicon. Circuitry around the Zener
supplies internal biasing currents and buffers external
current changes from the Zener. The overall breakdown
is about 6.9 V with devices selected for temperature
coefficients.
The Zener is relatively straightforward. A buried Zener
01 breaks down biasing the base of transistor 01.
Transistor 01 drives two buffers 02 and 03. External
current changes through the circuit are fully absorbed by
the buffer transistors rather than by 01. Current through
01 is held constant at 250 pA by a 2k resistor across the
emitter base of 01 while the emitter·base voltage of 01
nominally temperature compensates the reference
voltage.

Dl
6.3 v

The other components, 04, 05 and 06, set the operating
current of 01. Frequency compensation is accomplished
with two junction capacitors.
All that is needed for biasing in most applications is a
resistor as shown in figure 2. Biasing current can be
anywhere from 0.6 mA to 15 mA with little change in
performance. Optimally, however, the biasing current
should be as low as possible for the best regulation. The
dynamic impedance of the LM 129 is about 1 nand
is independent of current. Therefore, the regulation of
the LM 129 against voltage changes is 1IRs.
Lower currents or higher Rs give better regulation. For
example, with a 15 V supply and 1 mA operating
current, the reference change for a 10% change in the
15V supply is 180/LV. If the LM129 is run at 5mA,
the change is 900/LV or 5 times worse. 8y comparison,
a standard IN821 Zener will change about 17 mV. All
discrete Zeners have about the same regulation since
their dynamic impedance is inversely proportional to
operating current.
If the Zener does not have to be grounded, a bridge
compensating circuit can be used to get virtually perfect
regulation, as shown in figure 3. A small compensating
voltage is generated across R1, which matches the

impedance of the LM129 is linear with current, this
circuit will work even with large changes in the unregulated input voltage.

An AC square wave or bipolarity output reference can
easily be made with an op·amp and FET switch as shown
in figure 5. When 01 is "ON," the LM108 functions as a
normal inverting op·amp with a gain of -1 and an output
of ·-6.9 V. With 01 "OFF" the op·amp acts as a
giving 6.9 V at the output. Some non·symmetry will
occur from loading change on the LM 129 in the different
states and mismatch of R 1 and R2. Trimming either R 1
or R 2 can make the output exactly symmetrical around
ground.

Other output voltages are easily obtained with the
simple op,amp circuit shown in figure 4. A simple non·
inverting amplifier is used to boost and buffer the Zener
to 10 V; The reference is run directly from the input
power rather than the output of the op·amp. When the
Zener is powered from the op·amp, special starting
circuitry is sometimes necessary to insure the output
comes up in the right polarity. For outputs lower than
the breakdown of the LM 129 a divider can be connected'
across the Zener to drive the op·amp.

Interfacing between lIigital and analog signals is becoming
increasingly important with the proliferation of digital
signal processing. System accuracy is often limited by
the accuracy of the converter and a limitation of the
converter is the voltage reference. Design can be diffi·
caul if the reference is external.

For a 10V output with a 6.9V zener, the drift contribution of resistor mistracking is about 0.4 since the gain
is 1.4. The range of temperature coefficient'errors for
different components used to make a 10V reference
from a 6.9V zener are sh-own in Table III. Another
potential source of error, input supply variations,
are negligible if the input is 1% regUlated, and the
resistor feeding the zener is stable to 1%.

a:

The accuracy of any converter is limited by the tempera'
ture dirft or long term drift of the voltage reference,
even if conversion linearity is perfect. Assuming that the
voltage reference is allowed to add 1/2 least significant
bit error (LSS) to the converter, it is surprising how
good the reference must be when even small temperature
excursions are considered. When temperature changes
are large, the reference design is a major problem.
Table I shows, the reference requirements for different
converters while Table II shows how the same problems
exist with digital panel meters.

Less frequently specified sources of, error in voltage
reference zeners are hysteresis and stress sensitivity.
Stress on either a zener-diode junction or the seriestemperature-compensating junction will cause voltage
shifts. The axial leads on discrete devices can transmit
stress from outside the package to the junction, causing
1 mV to 5 mV shifts.
Temperature cycling the discrete zener can also induce
non-reversible changes hi zener voltage., If a zener is
heated from 25°C to 100° C and then bac~ to 25° C,
the zener voltage may not return to its original value.
This is because the temperature cycle has permanently
changed the stress in the die, changing the voltage. This
effect can be as high as ~ mV in some diodes and may
be cumulative with many temperature cycles. The new
planar IC zeners, such as 'the LM199 (temperature
stabilized) or the LM 129 are insensitive to stress and
show only about 50 p.V ~f hysteresis for a 150°C temperature cycle since the package .does not stress the
silicon chip.

The voltage reference circuitry is required to do several
functions to'maintain a stable output. First, input power
supply changes must be rejected by the reference circuitry. Secondly, the zener used in the reference must be
biased properly, while other parts of circuitry scale the
typical zener voltage and provides a low impedance'
output. Finally, the reference circuitry must reject
, ambient temperature changes so that the temperature
drift of the reference circuitry plus the drift of the zener
does not exceed the desired drift limit.
'
While zener temperature coefficient is obviously critical
to reference performance, other sources of drift can
easily add as much error as zener - even in voltage
references with, modest performance of 20 ppm/" C
temperature drift. Zener drift and op amp drift add
directly to the drift error, while resistor error is only a
function of how well the scaling resistors track. Resis·
tors which have a high TC can be used if they track.

DESIGNING THE REFERENCE
If moderate temperature performance such as 20 ppm/
°c is all that is needed, 2 different approaches can be
used in the reference design. In the first, the temperature drift error is split equally between the zener and the
amplifier or scaling resistors. This requires a moderately
low drift zener and op amp with 10 ppm resistors.

In Figure 1b, a low drift reference and op amp are used
to give a total drift, exclusive of resistors of 3 ppm/" C.
Now the resistor tracking requirement is relaxed to
about 50 ppm, allowing ordinary 1% resistors to be used.
The circuit in Figure 1b is modified easily for applica·
tions requiring 3 ppm/"C to 5 ppm/"C overall drift by
tightening the tracking of the resistors. For more accurate
applications, the Kelvin sensing for both output and
ground should be used. For even lower drifts, substituting
a 1 jJ.V /"C op amp, 1 ppm tracking resistors and an
LM199A zener, overall drifts of 1 ppm/"C can be
achieved. In both of the circuits, it is important to
remember that the tracking of resistors can, at worst·
case, be twice temperature drift of either resistance.

The second approach uses a very low drift zener and
allows the buffer amplifier or scaling resistor to cause
most of the drift error. This type of design is now made
economical by the availability of low cost temperature
stabilized IC zeners with virtually no TC. Further, the
temperature coefficient of this reference is easily up·
graded, if necessary. The 2 reference circuits are shown
in Figure 1a and Figure 1b.
.
In Figure 1a, an LM308 op amp is used to increase the
typical zener output to 10V while adding a worst·case
drift of 4 ppmfC to the 10 ppm/"C of the zener.
Resistors R3 and R4 should track to better than
10 ppm bringing the total error so far to 18 ppm. Since
the output must be adjusted to eliminate the initial
zener tolerance, a pot, R5 and R2 have been added. The
loading on the pot by R2 is small, and there is no track·
ing requirement between the pot and R2. It is necessary
for R2 to track R3 and R4 within 50 ppm.

In both circuits, the zener is biased by a single resistor
from the supply, rather. than from the reference output.
This eliminates possible start·up problems and, because'
of the 1.11 dynamic impedance of the IC zeners, only

adds about 20 jJ.V of error. Compensation for input
changes is shown in Figure 1b. 'Conventional zeners do
not allow this biasing. A conventional 5 ppm reference
such as the 1N829 has a dynamic impedance of about
15ft If it is biased from a resistor from a 1% regulated
15V supply, the operating current can change by 1.7%
or 127 jJ.A. This will shift the zener voltage by 1.9 mVor
60 ppm. With the IC zeners operating at 1 mA, a 1%
shift in the supply will change the reference by 20 jJ.V
or 3 ppm. Further, power dissipation in the IC is only
7 mW, giving low warm-up drift compared to 7.5 mA
zeners. The biasing resistor for the IC zener need'not be
any better than an ordinary 1% resistor since performance
is independent of current.
,-

In this case, zener drift contributes proportionally to
the output drift while op amp offset drift adds a greater
rate. With the '1 OV reference, 15 jJ.Vt C from the op amp
contributed 2 ppm/DC drift, but for the 5V reference,
15 jJ.vfc adds 3 ppmfC. This makes op amp choice
more important as the output voltage is lowered. Of
. course, if a high. output impedance is tolerable, the
op amp can be eliminated.
APPROACHING THE ULTIMATE DRIFT
To obtain the lowest possible drifts, temperature coefficient trimming is necessary. With discrete zeners, the
operating' current can sometimes be trimmed to change
the TC of the reference; however, the temperature
coefficient is not always linear or predictable. With the
new IC zeners, TC is independent of operating current
so trimming must be done elsewhere in the circuit.
The lowest drift components should be used since

When output voltages less than the' zener voltage are
desired, the IC zeners significantly simplify circuit design
since no auxiliary regulator is needed for biasing. Figure
2 sho~s a 5V reference circuit for use with a 15V input.

FIGURE 3. Ultra Low Drift Reference

trimming can only remove a linear component of drift.
High TC devices can have a highly non-linear drift,
making trimming difficult.
Figure 3 shows a circuit suitable for trimming. An

LM199A reference with 0.5 ppmtC drift is used with
a 121/108 op amp. ,Resistors should be 1 ppm tracking
to give overall ,untrimmed drifts of about 0.9 ppm.
The 121/108 is a low drift amplifier combination where
drift is predictably proportional to offset voltage. An
offset can be set for the, 108/121 combination to cancel
the measured drift with 1 pass calibration.
Trimming procedure is as follows: the zener is disconnected and the input of the op amp grounded. Then the
offset of the op amp is nulled out to zero: Reconnecting
the zener, the output is adjusted to precisely 10V.
A temperature run is made and the drift noted. The op
amp will drift 3.6 p.V tc for every 1 mV of offset, so for
every 5 p.vtc drift at the output, the offset of the
op amp is adjusted 1 mV (1.4 mV measured at the out·
put) in the opposite direction. The output is readjusted
to 10V and the drift checked.

14-43

Although this trimming scheme was chosen since only a
single 'adjustment is usually required, compensation is
not always perfect. Hysteresis effects can appea~ in
resistors or op amps as well as zeners. Best results can be
obtained by cycling the circuit to temperature a few
times before taking data to relieve assembly stresses on
the components. Also, oven testing can sometimes
cause thermal gradients across circuits, giving 50 p.V to
100 p.V of error. However, with careful layout and
trimming, overall reference drifts of 0.1 ppmtC to
0.2 ppmtC can be achieved.
.
There are 2 other possible problem areas to be considered
before final layout. Good single point grounding is
important. Traces on a PC board can easily have
O.ln and only 10 mA will cause a 1 mV shift. Also, since
these references are close to ,high-speed digital circuitry,
shielding may be necessary to prevent pick·up at the
inputs of the op amp. Transient response to pick·up or
rapid loading changes can sometimes be improved by a
large capacitor (1 p.F-l0 p.F) directly on the op amp
output; but this will depend on the stability of the
op amp.

8·Cha~·nel Interrupt Service Routine with Software Pri~rity (Continued)

ADJUSTMENT AND TESTING
Adjustment and testing of a single channel AID is done
by monitoring the memory space where the interrupt
routine stores the data word. The microprocessor is
forced to loop around a section of program with interrupts enabled. As the input voltage of the converter is
changed, this data word should also change as the converter updates it. A precision voltage reference is con·
nected to the input of the A/D and incremental voltage
steps are applied. The A/D data word should also change
according to the voltage steps.

Debugging may most easily be done by single stepping
through the program at these critical areas. No timing
problems should be encountered since the AID port
appears to be a standard peripheral or memory. In the
ADC3511 and ADC3711 the desired output is merely
addressed the same as a memory location.

At full·scale input Voltage, the data word should be at its
maximum value. If not, check the full·scale adjust on
the A/D by adjusting it so the OFL bit goes high when
the input is exactly 2.000V.
\
Multichannel systems are more difficult to check. Start
by individually checking the full·scale adjustments so
the converters overflow at 2.000V. Check the software
priority routine by forcing all status bits of the status
word high. This corresponds to all converters being
ready at the same time, a very unlikely worst-case
condition. The microprocessor should respond by out.'
putting the address of all 4 digits of the A/D port with
the highest priority along with the memR strobes,
then with a memW strobe to start a new conversion.
The next highest priority converter should then receive
its a.ddresses and memR strobes and so on down the
line.

The memory requirements of the interface depends,
of course, on the complexity of the system. The single
channel converter requires approximately 60 bytes of
program storage plus 2 bytes for data storage and 4
peripheral addresses. "
The multichannel system requires about 40 bytes for
the priority routine. and 10 bytes of program for each
converter routine. The common input routine r~quires
about_50 bytes of program and is used by all the con·
verter routines in the form of a subroutine.
Memory mapped I/O causes 64 memory locations to be
used to input an 8-channel system. The data space is
located directly above the address space for the converters a"nd 16 memory locations are used to store the
data for 8 converters.
CONCLUSION
The ADC3511 and ADC3711 microprocessor compatible
AID converters eliminate the difficulties previously
encountered in applying DPM chips to microprocessor
systems. The low parts count and low cost per channel
make distributed or remote A/D conversion practical
for a variety of data acquisition applications.

Once the priority routine has been debugged, each data
word is monitored as the input to its converter is adjusted.
_Since a common input routine is used, once 1 channel
operates, all the other channels should iliso.

APPENDIX A

The DC value of this pulse train is:

THEORY OF OPERATION

tON

Vour = VREF

tON +tOFF /

A schematic for the analog loop is shown in Figure A 1,
The output of SW 1 is either at VREF or OV, depending
on the state of ,the D flip·flop, If Q is at a high level,
VOUT = VREF and if Q is at a low level VOUT = OV.
This voltage is then applied to the low pass filter com·
prised of R1 and C1. The output of this filter, VFB,
is connected to the negative input of the comparator,
where it is compared to the analog input voltage, VIN.
The output of the comparator is connected to the D
inpl!t of the D flip·flop. Information is then transferred
from the D input to th~ Q and Q outputs on the positive
edge of clock. This loop forms an oscillator whose duty
cycle is precisely related to the analog input voltage,
VIN·

The low pass filter will pass the DC value and then:
VFB = VREF (duty cycle)
Since the closed loop system will always force V FB to
equal VIN, we can then say that:
VIN = VFB = VREF (duty cycle)
or
VIN
- - = (duty cycle)
VREF

An example will demonstrate this relationship. As~ume
the input voltage is equal to 0.500V. If the Q output of
the D flip·flop is high, then VOUT will equal VREF
(2.000V) and V,FB will charge toward 2V with a time
constant equal to R1C1. At some time VFB will exceed
0.500V and the comparator output will switch to OV.
At the next clock rising edge, the Q output of the D
flip·flop will switch to ground, causing VOUT to switch
to OV. At this time, VFB will 'start discharging toward
OV with a time constant R1C1.-When VFB is less than
0:5V, the comparator output will switch high. On th,e
rising edge of the next clock, the Q output of the D
flip·flop will switch high and the process will repeat.
There exists at the output of SW 1 a square wave pulse
train with positive amplitude VREF and negative ampli·
tude OV.

The duty cycle is logically ANDed with the input
frequency fiN. The resultant frequency f equals:
f = (duty cycle) x, (fiN)
Frequency f is accumulated by counter no. 1 for a time
determined by counter no. 2. The count' contained in
counter, no. 1 is then:
f
(duty cycle) x (fiN)
VIN
count = - - - . :
=--x N
(fIN)/N

For the ADC3511 N = 2000.
For the ADC3711 N = 4000.

FIGURE 3. Constant-Current Sour.ce
CALIBRATION
provements to the basic circuit of Figure 1 are possible in the following areas:

Calibrate the DMM according to the following sequence
of operations:

DC Volts
2V Range
DC Volts
2V Range
Ohms
2 MS1 Range

AC Volts
2V Range

1. Adjust P1 until the cathode voltage
of the reference c;liode, LM336,
equals 2.49V. This reduces the
diode's temperature coefficient to
its minimum value.
2. Short the (+) and (-) probe inputs
of the ADD3501 and adjust P2
until the display reads 0000.
3. Apply 1.995 volts across the (+)
and (-) probe inputs and adjust P3
until the display reads 1.995.
4. Select a precision resistor with a
value near full-scale or the 2 MS1
range, and adjust P4 until the appropriate value is displayed.
5. Apply a known 1.995V rms sinewave
signal to the DMM and adjust P5 ,
until the display reads the same.

PC BOARD LAYOUT

1. Expand the VOLTS mode to include a 200 mV
full·scale range;
2. Decrease the full-scale current·measurement loading
voltage from 2V to 200 mV; and,
3. Provide a true-rms measurement capability.
4. Increase 'resolution by substituting the ADD37013 3/4-digit DVM chip-which is interchangeable
and provides a maximum display count of 3.999.
The first 2 improvements involve a dividing down
of the AD 0350 1 feedback loop by a ratio of 10: 1,
which reduces the 2V full-scale input requirement
to 200 mV, This not only allows
200 mV signal
between the ADD3501's V'N+ and V'N- inputs to
display a full-scale reading, but implies that the maximum voltage dropped across the current-measuringmode resistance also will be 200 m V. Note, though,
that the values of the current-measurement resistors
must be scaled down by a factor of ten.

a

Additionally, a 200 mV full-scale input implies a resolution of 100 /LV/LSD. At such low input levels, the
DMM may require some clever circuitry to eliminate
the gain and linearity distortions that can arise from
the offset currents in the AC-to-DC converter.

It is imperative to have only one, single·point, analog
signal ground connection for the entire system. In
a multi·ground layout,' the presence of ground-loop
resistances will cause the op amps' offset currents and
AC response to have a devastating effect on system gain,
linearity, and display LSD flicker. Similar precautions
must also be taken in the layout of the analog and
high-switching-current (digital) paths of the ADD3501.

The third possible improvement-the reading of truerms values-can be implemented by replacing the AC'to-DC converter of Figure 2 with National's LH0091,
a true-rms-to-DC converter, and appropriate interfa?e
circuitry.
