ADC Connections and Decoupling

Figure 3-3 shows all connections to the ADS127L18 data converter (U1). Each power supply connection has a 10μF decoupling capacitor. Make sure these capacitors are physically close to the device and have a good connection to the GND plane. The supply connections also have a series 0Ω resistor. The purpose of this component is to facilitate current measurement for the ADC. Each digital pin has a 10Ω series resistor. These resistors smooth the edges of the digital signals to provide minimal overshoot and ringing. Also, each digital pin has a 100kΩ pull-up or pull-down resistor. These resistors are installed to minimize connections to an FPGA development board. Although not strictly required, these components can be included in the final design to improve digital signal integrity.
