ADS8900B 20-Bit SAR ADC Driver Circuit

The application circuit in Figure 9-9 shows the schematic for the 20-bit, precision, 1-MSPS, successive approximation register (SAR), analog-to-digital converter (ADC). This circuit is used to measure the driving capability of the PGA855 with the ADS8900B ADC. The circuit accepts single-ended or differential input signals.

The PGA855 operates with independent input and output power supplies. In this example, ±15‑V power supplies are used for the input section, and a 5.3‑V power supply for the output section.

To reduce extrinsic voltage supply noise, the ADC portion of the circuit uses the TPS7A4700, a low-noise, 4-μVRMS LDO voltage regulator, to generate a unipolar 5.3‑V ADC supply rail and the PGA855 output stage supply is powered by the same 5.3-V ADC supply. The 5.3‑V output supply operation prevents overloading the ADC inputs during PGA overdrive conditions. The REF5050 is selected as a voltage reference; this is a low-noise, low-drift, precision 5-V reference connected to the ADS8900B REFIN pin.
