JAJSEC1C November 2019 – July 2020 ADS8686S
PRODUCTION DATA
For applications that require multiple ADS8686S devices, using the same reference voltage source for all the ADCs helps eliminate any potential errors in the system resulting from mismatch between multiple reference sources.
Figure 7-8 shows the recommended connection diagram for an application that uses one device in internal reference mode and provides the reference source for other devices. The device used as the source of the voltage reference is bypassed by a 10-µF capacitor on the REFIO pin, whereas the other devices are bypassed with a 100-nF capacitor.
Figure 7-9 shows the recommended connection diagram for an application that uses an external voltage reference (such as the REF5025) to provide the reference source for multiple devices.
