GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The low-cost ADS-945 is a high-performance, 14-bit, 10MHz
sampling A/D converter. This device accurately samples
full-scale input signals up to Nyquist frequencies with no
missing codes. The dynamic performance of the ADS-945
has been optimized to achieve a THD of –80dB and a
SNR of 75dB.
Packaged in a 2" x 4" module, the functionally complete
ADS-945 contains a fast-settling sample/hold amplifier, a
subranging (two-pass) A/D converter, a precise voltage
reference, timing/control logic, three-state outputs, and
error-correction circuitry. Digital inputs and outputs are TTL
compatible (except for pins 29 and 30 which are ECL).
Requiring ±15V, +5V and –5.2V supplies, the ADS-945 typically
dissipates 4.0W. The unit is offered with a bipolar input range
of ±1.25V. Models are available for use in either commercial
(0 to +70°C) or military (–55 to +125°C) operating temperature
ranges. Typical applications include radar signal analysis,
medical/graphic imaging, and FFT spectrum analysis.

Footnotes:
➀
All power supplies should be on before applying a start convert pulse. All
supplies and the clock (start convert pulses) must be present during warmup
periods. The device must be continuously converting during this time.
➁
The input to the ADS-945 is internally clamped at ±2.3V.
➂
An 50ns wide start convert pulse is used for all production testing. For
applications requiring less than a 10MHz sampling rate, a wider start convert
can be used.
➃
Effective bits is equal to:

This is the time required before the A/D output is valid after the analog input is

TECHNICAL NOTES
1. Obtaining fully specified performance from the ADS-945
requires careful attention to pc-card layout and power supply
decoupling. The device's analog and digital ground systems
are
connected to each other internally. For optimal perfor-
mance, tie all ground pins directly to a large
analog
ground
plane beneath the package.
Bypass all power supplies to ground with 10µF tantalum
capacitors in parallel with 0.1µF ceramic capacitors.
The
bypass capacitors should be located as close to the
unit as possible.
2. The ADS-945 achieves its specified accuracies without the
need for external calibration. If required, the device's small
initial offset and gain errors can be reduced to zero using
the adjustment circuitry shown in Figure 2. The typical
adjustment range is ±0.2%FSR for this circuitry.
When using this circuitry, or any similar offset and gain-
calibration hardware, make adjustments following warmup.
To avoid interaction, always adjust offset before gain.
3. To enable the three-state outputs, apply a logic "0" (low) to
OUTPUT ENABLE (pin 34). To disable, apply a logic "1"
(high) to pin 34.
4. A passive bandpass filter (Allen Avionics F4202 Series) is
used at the input of the A/D for all production testing.
5. The ADS-945's digital outputs should not be directly con-
nected to a noisy data bus. Drive the bus with 573 or 574
type latches and use "low-noise" logic, such as the 74ALS
series.

ADS-945
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
(Refer to Figure 2 and Table 1)
Note:
Connect pin 18 to ANALOG GROUND (pin 19) for
operation without zero/offset adjustment. Connect pin 9 to
ANALOG GROUND (pin 8) for operation without gain
adjustment.
Any offset and/or gain calibration procedures should not be
implemented until devices are fully warmed up. To avoid
interaction, offset must be adjusted before gain. The ranges
of adjustment for the circuit in Figure 2 are guaranteed to
compensate for the ADS-945's initial accuracy errors and may
not be able to compensate for additional system errors.
A/D converters are calibrated by positioning their digital outputs
exactly on the transition point between two adjacent digital
output codes. This can be accomplished by connecting
LED's to the digital outputs and adjusting until certain LED's
"flicker" equally between on and off. Other approaches employ
digital comparators or microcontrollers to detect when the
outputs change from one code to the next.
For the ADS-945, offset adjusting is normally accomplished at
the point where the MSB is a 1 and all other output bits are
0's and the LSB just changes from a 0 to a 1. This digital
output transition ideally occurs when the applied analog input is
+½ LSB (+76.3µV).
Gain adjusting is accomplished when all bits are 0's and the
LSB just changes from a 0 to a 1. This transition ideally
occurs when the analog input is at +full scale minus 1 ½ LSB's
(+1.249771V) .
Note:
Due to inherent system noise, the averaging of several
conversions may be needed to accurately adjust both offset
and gain to 1LSB of accuracy.
Zero/Offset Adjust Procedure
1. Apply a train of pulses to the START CONVERT input
(pin 32) so the converter is continuously converting.
2. Apply +76.3µV to the ANALOG INPUT (pin 4).
3. Adjust the offset potentiometer until the output bits are
10 0000 0000 0000 and the LSB flickers between 0 and 1.
Gain Adjust Procedure
1. Apply +1.249771V to the ANALOG INPUT (pin 4).
2. Adjust the gain potentiometer until all output bits are 0's and
the LSB flickers between 0 and 1.
3. To confirm proper operation of the device, vary the applied
input voltage to obtain the output coding listed in Table 1.
Note: A single +5V supply can be used for both the +5V
ANALOG and the +5V DIGITAL. If separate supplies are
used, the difference between the two can not exceed
100mV. This also applies to the –5.2V supply requirements.
Datel recommends using ferrite beads to separate the analog
and digital supplies (FAIR-RITE # 2643000301.)
