GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The low-cost ADS-937 is a 16-bit, 1MHz sampling A/D con-
verter. This device accurately samples full-scale input signals
up to Nyquist frequencies with no missing codes. This feature,
combined with excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and total
harmonic distortion (THD), makes the ADS-937 the ideal
choice for both time-domain (CCD/medical imaging, scanners,
process control) and frequency-domain (radar, telecommunica-
tions, spectrum analysis) applications.
Packaged in a 32-pin, side-brazed, metal-sealed, ceramic
TDIP, the functionally complete ADS-937 contains a fast-
settling sample-hold amplifier, a subranging (two-pass) A/D
converter, an internal reference, timing/control logic, and error-
correction circuitry. Digital input and output levels are TTL.
ADS-937 only requires the rising edge of the start convert
pulse to operate.
Requiring ±15V and ±5V supplies, the ADS-937 typically
dissipates 1.25 Watts. The device is offered with both bipolar
(±5V) and unipolar (0 to –10V) analog input ranges. Models
are available for use in either commercial (0 to +70°C) or
military (–55 to +125°C) operating temperature ranges. A
proprietary, auto-calibrating, error-correcting circuit enables
the device to achieve specified performance over the full
military temperature range.

Footnotes:
All power supplies must be on before applying a start convert pulse. All
supplies and the clock (START CONVERT) must be present during warm-up
periods. The device must be continuously converting during this time.
Contact DATEL for other input voltage ranges.
A 1MHz clock with a 500nsec positive pulse width (50% duty cycle) is used for
all production testing. Any duty cycle may be used as long as a minimum
positive pulse width of 20nsec is maintained. For applications requiring lower
sampling rates, clock frequencies less than 1MHz may be used.
Effective bits is equal to:
(SNR + Distortion) – 1.76 +
20 log
6.02
Full Scale Amplitude
Actual Input Amplitude
This is the time required before the A/D output data is valid once the analog input
is back within the specified range.
TECHNICAL NOTES
1. Obtaining fully specified performance from the ADS-937
requires careful attention to pc-card layout and power
supply decoupling. The device's analog and digital ground
systems are not connected to each other internally. For
optimal performance, tie all ground pins (2, 12 and 13)
directly to a large
analog
ground plane beneath the
package.
Bypass all power supplies and the +5V REFERENCE
OUTPUT (pin 5) to ground with 4.7µF tantalum capacitors in
parallel with 0.1µF ceramic capacitors. Locate the bypass
capacitors as close to the unit as possible. Tie a 47µF
capacitor between COMPENSATION (pin 7) and ground
(See figure 2.).
2. The ADS-937 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. When using this
circuitry, or any similar offset and gain calibration hardware,
make adjustments following warm-up. To avoid interaction,
always adjust offset before gain. Float pins 4 and 6 if not
using offset and gain adjust circuits.
3. Applying a start convert pulse while a conversion is in
progress (EOC = logic "1") will initiate a new and inaccurate
conversion cycle. Data for the interrupted and subsequent
conversions will be invalid.
THERMAL REQUIREMENTS
All DATEL sampling A/D converters are fully characterized and
specified over operating temperature (case) ranges of 0 to
+70°C and –55 to +125°C. All room-temperature (T
A
= +25°C)
production testing is performed without the use of heat sinks or
forced-air cooling. Thermal impedance figures for each device
are listed in their respective specification tables.
These devices do not normally require heat sinks, however,
standard precautionary design and layout procedures should be
used to ensure devices do not overheat. The ground and power
planes beneath the package, as well as all pcb signal runs to
and from the device, should be as heavy as possible to help
conduct heat away from the package. Electrically-insulating,
thermally-conductive "pads" may be installed underneath the
package. Devices should be soldered to boards rather than
"socketed", and of course, minimal air flow over the surface can
greatly help reduce the package temperature.

ADS-937
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Connect the converter per Table 1 for the appropriate input
voltage range. Any offset/gain calibration procedures should
not be implemented until the device is fully warmed up. To
avoid interaction, adjust offset before gain. The ranges of
adjustment for the circuits in Figure 2 are guaranteed to
compensate for the ADS-937'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 is accomplished by connecting
LED's to the digital outputs and performing adjustments 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-937, offset adjusting is normally accomplished
when the analog input is 0 minus ½LSB (–76.3µV). See Table
2 for the proper bipolar and unipolar output coding.
Gain adjusting is accomplished when the analog input is at
nominal full scale minus 1½LSB's (–9.999771V for unipolar
and –4.999771V for bipolar).
Zero/Offset Adjust Procedure
1. Apply a train of pulses to the START CONVERT input
(pin 16) so that the converter is continuously converting.
2. For unipolar or bipolar zero/offset adjust, apply –76.3µV to
the ANALOG INPUT (pin 1).
3. For a bipolar input - Adjust the offset potentiometer until the
output code flickers equally between 1000 0000 0000 0000
and 0111 1111 1111 1111.
For a unipolar input - Adjust the offset potentiometer until
all output bits are 0's and the LSB flickers between 0 and 1.
Gain Adjust Procedure
1. Apply –4.999771V to the ANALOG INPUT (pin 1) for
bipolar gain adjust or apply –9.999771V to pin 1 for
unipolar gain adjust.
2. For a unipolar input - Adjust the gain potentiometer until all
output bits are 1's and the LSB flickers between 1 and 0.
For a bipolar input - Adjust the gain potentiometer until all
output bits are 1's and the LSB flickers between 1 and 0.
3. To confirm proper operation of the device, vary the applied
input voltage to obtain the output coding listed in Table 2.
