Features 1.1 Features Full-featured evaluation board for the high-speed ADS8381 18-bit, single channel, parallel interface, SAR-type analog-to-digital converters. Onboard signal conditioning Onboard reference Input and output digital buffer Onboard decoding for stacking multiple EVMs...
Chapter 2 Analog Interface The ADS8381 analog-to-digital converter has both a positive and negative analog input pin. Ground for the negative input is provided on the EVM (via SJP3) close the device, or a user-furnished ground wire may be attached. The negative input pin has a range of –200 mV up to 200 mV, and is shorted on the EVM via SJP3.
The factory recommends the analog input to any SAR-type converter be buffered and low-pass filtered. It is important to note that the input buffer circuit of the ADS8381EVM, shown in Figure 2−1, uses the THS4031 in an inverting gain-of-one configuration. The amplifier is not stable in a conventional gain-of-one configuration.
Reference 2.2 Reference The ADS8381EVM provides an onboard 4.096-V reference circuit. This reference voltage can be applied directly to the VREF pin of the converter; it does not need to be buffered. The EVM also has provi- sion for a user-supplied external reference voltage. This voltage can be filtered, as needed, by routing the signal through amplifier U1.
Chapter 3 Digital Interface The ADS8381EVM is designed for easy interfacing to multiple platforms. Samtec part numbers SSW−110−22−F−D−VS−K and TSM−110−01−T−DV−P provide a convenient dual-row-header/socket combination at P2 and P3. Consult Samtec at www.samtec.com or 1−800−SAMTEC−9 for a variety of mating connector options.
Chapter 4 Power Supply Requirements The EVM accepts four power supplies. A dual ±Vs DC supply for the dual supply op amps. Recommend a ±6-VDC supply. A single +5.0-VDC supply for analog section of the board (A/D + Refer- ence). A single +5.0-V or +3.3-VDC supply for digital section of the board (A/D + address decoder + buffers).
