AD4853 Datasheet

The AD4853 is a fully buffered, 4-channel simultaneous sampling, 16-bit, 1MSPS data acquisition system (DAS) with differential, wide common-mode range inputs. Its functional architecture is shown in Figure 1 in the data sheet. Operating from a 5V low voltage supply, flexible input buffer supplies, and using the precision low drift internal reference and reference buffer, the AD4853 allows the SoftSpan range of each channel to be independently configured to match the application signal swing, minimizing additional external signal conditioning. To further maximize single-conversion dynamic range, the AD4853 incorporates seamless high dynamic range (SHDR) technology. When enabled, the input signal path gain of the channel is automatically optimized on a sample-by-sample basis, minimizing converter noise on each sample without impacting linearity.

The 11MHz bandwidth, picoamp input analog buffers, wide input common-mode range, and 120dB common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of the AD4853 allow the DAS to directly digitize input signals with arbitrary swings on INx+ and INx−. Its input signal flexibility, combined with ±160μV integral nonlinearity (INL), no missing codes at 16 bits, 94.6dB signal to noise ratio (SNR), and 98.1dB dynamic range, make the AD4853 an ideal choice for applications requiring high accuracy, throughput, and precision in a compact solution footprint. Enabling 16-bit oversampling offers further SNR and dynamic range improvements. Optional per channel offset, gain, and phase adjustment provide the ability to calibrate and remove system-level errors upstream to the DAS.

The AD4853 features a serial peripheral interface (SPI) register configuration bus (0.9V to 5.25V) and supports both low voltage differential signaling buses (LVDS) and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) conversion data output buses, selectable using the LVDS/CMOS pin. Between one and four lines of data output can be employed in CMOS mode, allowing the user to optimize bus width and throughput.

The 7.00mm × 7.00mm, 64-ball, ball grid array (BGA) of the AD4853 includes all critical power supply and reference bypass capacitors, minimizing full solution footprint and component count and reducing sensitivity to application printed circuit board (PCB) layout. The device operates over an extended industrial temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.

Note that throughout this data sheet, multifunction pins such as LVDS/CMOS are referred to either by the entire pin name or by a single function of the pin. For example, LVDS when only that function is relevant.
