PRODUCTION DATA
As shown in Figure 6-8, the ADS981x features a data output randomizer. When enabled, the ADC conversion result is bit-wise exclusive-ORed (XOR) with the LSB of the conversion result. The LSB of the ADC conversion result has equal probability of being either 1 or 0. As a result of the XOR operation, the data output from the ADS981x is randomized. The ground bounce created by the transmission of this randomized result over the data interface is uncorrelated with the analog input voltage. This uncorrelated transmission helps minimize interference between data transmission and analog performance of the ADC when the PCB layout does not minimize ground bounce.
