SBAS905C November 2019 – July 2020 ADS8686S
PRODUCTION DATA
The ADS8686S can operate with either an internal or external reference along with an internal gain amplifier. The internal or external reference selection is determined by an external REFSEL pin, as explained in the Section 7.4.1.1 section. The REFIO pin outputs the internal band-gap voltage (in internal reference mode) or functions as an input to the external reference voltage (in external reference mode). In both cases, the on-chip amplifier is always enabled. Use this internal amplifier to gain the reference voltage and drive the actual reference input of the internal ADC core for maximizing performance. The REFCAP (pin 31) must be decoupled with REFGND (pin 32) using a 10-µF, X5R, or X7R ceramic capacitor.
