7.7 Feedthrough Measurement

In order to test the forward-feedthrough performance of the OPS in the disabled state, the circuit shown in Figure 7-7 was used. The PATHSEL pin was driven low to select the internal path between the D2S and OPS. A 100 mVPP, swept-frequency, sinusoidal signal was applied at the VREF pin, and the output signal was measured at the OPS output pin (VOUT, pin 11). The transfer function from VREF to the output of the D2S at VO1 has a gain of 0 dB, as shown in Figure 6-23. The results shown in Figure 6-57 account for the 6 dB loss due to the doubly-terminated OPS output, and report the forward feedthrough between VOUT and VO1 at different OPS gains. The D2S inputs were grounded through 50 Ω resistors for this test.

In order to test the reverse feedthrough performance of the OPS in its disabled state, the circuit shown in Figure 7-8 was used. The PATHSEL pin was driven high to select the external path to the OPS noninverting pin, VIN+, pin 9. A 100 mVPP, swept-frequency, sinusoidal signal was applied at the VIN+ pin and the output signal was measured at the D2S output pin (VO1, pin 6). The results shown in Figure 6-58 account for the 16.5 dB loss due to the D2S termination, and the test reports the reverse feedthrough between the VO1 and VIN+ pins. The D2S inputs were grounded through 50 Ω resistors for this test.
