GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7938/AD7939 are 12-bit and 10-bit, high speed, low
power, successive approximation (SAR) ADCs. The parts
operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply and feature
throughput rates up to 1.5 MSPS. The parts contain a low noise,
wide bandwidth, differential track-and-hold amplifier that can
handle input frequencies up to 20 MHz.
The AD7938/AD7939 feature eight analog input channels with
a channel sequencer that allow a preprogrammed selection of
channels to be converted sequentially. These parts can operate
with either single-ended, fully differential, or pseudo-
differential analog inputs.
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled
using standard control inputs that allow easy interfacing with
microprocessors and DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the
falling edge of CONVST and the conversion is also initiated at
this point.
The AD7938/AD7939 have an accurate on-chip 2.5 V reference
that can be used as the reference source for the analog-to-digital
conversion. Alternatively, this pin can be overdriven to provide
an external reference.
These parts use advanced design techniques to achieve very low
power dissipation at high throughput rates. They also feature
flexible power management options. An on-chip control register
allows the user to set up different operating conditions,
including analog input range and configuration, output coding,
power management, and channel sequencing.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

4.
High throughput with low power consumption.
Eight analog inputs with a channel sequencer.
Accurate on-chip 2.5 V reference.
Software configurable analog inputs. Single-ended, pseudo-
differential, or fully differential analog inputs that are
software selectable.
Single-supply operation with V
DRIVE
function. The V
DRIVE
function allows the parallel interface to connect directly to
3 V, or 5 V processor systems independent of V
DD
.
No pipeline delay.
Accurate control of the sampling instant via a CONVST
input and once off conversion control.
