PRODUCTION DATA
The ADC includes a test voltage digital-to-analog converter (TDAC) intended for ADC self-testing and verification. The TDAC is capable of providing single-ended, differential and common mode test voltages. The voltages are suitable to test the ADCs under all gains and input configurations.
As shown in Figure 9-28, the TDAC consists of two independent DACs, TDACP, and TDACN. The DACs have independent control registers to program the output voltage. TDACP is programmed by register TDACP and TDACN is programmed by register TDACN. The TDACP output connects to the ADC1 and ADC2 positive input multiplexer input and TDACN connects to the ADC1 and ADC2 negative input multiplexer. The OUT1 and OUT2 bits can be programmed to connect the TDAC outputs to pins AIN6 and AIN7. The TDAC outputs are unbuffered and should not be loaded. The TDAC reference voltage is the analog supply (VAVDD – VAVSS); therefore, the output levels refer to, and scale with, the analog power supply. Note that chop mode must be disabled to test the ADC with the TDAC.
Table 9-8 shows the TDAC output voltages and the corresponding output impedance. The TDAC settings are binary-weighted and correspond to the binary-weighted ADC gains. To generate a single ended test voltage, set TDACN = 00h. This value sets the TDACN voltage to mid-supply. Set TDACP above or below the TDACN voltage to generate positive or negative test voltages, respectively. Differential test voltages are generated by setting TDACP and TDACN to symmetric values centered around a common-code value (typical common value = 00h). For example, use code values equal to 01h and 11h, 02h and 12h, and so forth, to generate a differential voltage. To generate common-mode test voltages, set the TDACs to equal values.
