7.1 Overview

The ADS868x devices belong to a family of high-speed, high-performance, easy-to-use integrated data acquisition system. This single-channel device supports true bipolar input voltage swings up to ±12.288 V, operating on a single 5-V analog supply. The device features an enhanced SPI interface (multiSPI) that allows the sampling rate to be maximized even with lower speed host controllers.

The device consists of a high-precision successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a power-optimized analog front-end (AFE) circuit for signal conditioning that includes:

  • A high-resistive input impedance (≥ 1 MΩ) that is independent of the sampling rate
  • A programmable gain amplifier (PGA) with a pseudo-differential input configuration supporting nine software-programmable unipolar and bipolar input ranges
  • A second-order, low-pass antialiasing filter
  • An ADC driver amplifier that ensures quick settling of the SAR ADC input for high accuracy
  • An input overvoltage protection circuit up to ±20 V

The device also features a low temperature drift, 4.096-V internal reference with a fast-settling buffer and a multiSPI serial interface with daisy-chain (DAISY) and ALARM features.

The integration of the precision AFE circuit with high input impedance and a precision ADC operating from a single 5-V supply offers a simplified end solution without requiring external high-voltage bipolar supplies and complicated driver circuits.
