SBAS905C November 2019 – July 2020 ADS8686S
PRODUCTION DATA
The ADS8686S is a 16-bit data acquisition system (DAQ) with 16-channel analog inputs. Each analog input channel consists of an input clamp protection circuit, a programmable gain amplifier (PGA), a second-order programmable low-pass filter followed by an analog-to-digital (ADC) driver. The ADC driver outputs are connected through a dual 8:1 multiplexer (MUX) to a dual simultaneous sampling 16-bit ADC. The overall system can achieve a maximum throughput of 1 MSPS per ADC. The device features a 2.5-V internal reference with a fast-settling buffer, a programmable digital averaging filter to improve noise performance, a flexible channel sequencer, and high-speed parallel, byte, and serial interfaces for communication with a wide variety of digital hosts.
The device operates from a single 5-V analog supply and can accommodate true bipolar input signals . The programmable analog signal range includes ±10-V, ±5-V, and ±2.5-V options with 20% overrange. The input clamp protection circuitry can tolerate voltages up to ±15 V. The device offers a constant 1-MΩ resistive input impedance irrespective of the sampling frequency or the selected input range.
The device can be operated in hardware or software mode by controlling the HW_RNGSELx pins. In hardware mode, the device is configured by pin control. In software mode, the device is configured by the control registers accessed through the parallel, byte, or serial interface.
