ADS-118, ADS-118A
12-Bit, 5MHz, Low-Power Sampling A/D Converters
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
DATEL's ADS-118 and ADS-118A are 12-bit,
5MHz, sampling A/D converters packaged in
space-saving 24-pin DDIP’s. The ADS-118 offers
an input range of ±1V and has three-state outputs.
The ADS-118A has an input range of ±1.25V and
features direct adjustment of offset error.
These functionally complete low-power devices
(1.8 Watts) contain an internal fast-settling sample/
hold amplifier, a 12-bit subranging A/D converter,
a precise voltage reference, timing/control logic,
and error-correction circuitry. All timing and control
logic operates from the rising edge of a single start
convert pulse. Digital input and output levels are
TTL. Models are available for use in either com-
mercial (0 to +70°C) or military (–55 to +125°C)
operating temperature ranges.
Applications include radar, transient signal
analysis, process control, medical/graphic imaging,
and FFT spectrum analysis.

Footnotes:
➀
All power supplies should be on before applying a start convert pulse. All supplies
and the clock (start convert pulses) must be present during warmup periods. The
device must be continuously converting during this time.
➁
Input voltage ranges for ADS-118A is ±1.25V
➂
A 100ns wide start convert pulse is used for all production testing. For applications
requiring less than an 5MHz sampling rate, wider start convert pulses can be used.
NOTE: The device only requires the rising edge of a start convert pulse to operate.

TECHNICAL NOTES
1. Obtaining fully specified performance from the ADS-118 requires careful
attention to pc-card layout and power supply decoupling. The device’s
analog and digital ground systems are connected to each other internally.
For optimal performance, tie all ground pins (14, 18, and 23) directly to a
large analog ground plane beneath the package.
Bypass all power supplies to ground with 4.7μF tantalum capacitors in
parallel with 0.1μF ceramic capacitors. Locate the bypass capacitors as
close to the unit as possible.
2. The ADS-118 achieves its specified accuracies without the need for
external calibration. If required, the device’s small initial offset and gain
errors can be reduced to zero using the adjustment circuitry shown in
Figures 2a and 2b. For operation without adjustment, tie pin 17 to analog
ground. When using this circuitry, or any similar offset and gain-calibration
hardware, make adjustments following warmup. To avoid interaction,
always adjust offset before gain.
3. To enable the three-state outputs, connect ENABLE (pin 17) to a logic
"0" (low). To disable, connect pin 17 to logic "1" (high). The three-state
outputs are permanently enabled in the ADS-118A.
4. Applying a start convert pulse while a conversion is in progress (EOC =
logic "1") will initiate a new and inaccurate conversion cycle.

12-Bit, 5MHz, Low-Power Sampling A/D Converters
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Any offset and/or gain calibration procedures should not be implemented
until devices are fully warmed up. To avoid interaction, offset must be ad-
justed before gain. The ranges of adjustment for the circuits in Figures 2a
and 2b are guaranteed to compensate for the ADS-118's initial accuracy
errors and may not be able to compensate for additional system errors.
A/D converters are calibrated by positioning their digital outputs exactly on
the transition point between two adjacent digital output codes. This can be
accomplished by connecting
LED’s to the digital outputs and adjusting until certain LED's "flicker"
equally between on and off. Other approaches employ digital comparators
or microcontrollers to detect when the outputs change from one code to
the next.
For the ADS-118, offset adjusting is normally accomplished at the point
where the MSB is a 1 and all other output bits are 0’s and the LSB just
changes from a 0 to a 1. This digital output transition ideally occurs when
the applied analog input is
+½LSB (+244μV for ADS-118; +305μV for ADS-118A).
Gain adjusting is accomplished when all bits are 1’s and the LSB just
changes from a 1 to a 0. This transition ideally occurs when the ana-
log input is at +full scale minus 1½ LSB's (+0.99927V for ADS-118;
+1.249085V for ADS-118A).
Zero/Offset Adjust Procedure
1. Apply a train of pulses to the START CONVERT input (pin 16) so the con-
verter is continuously converting.
2. Apply +244μV (ADS-118) or +305μV (ADS-118A) to the ANALOG INPUT
(pin 19).
3. Adjust the offset potentiometer until the output bits are 1000 0000 00000
and the LSB flickers between 0 and 1.
Gain Adjust Procedure
1. Apply +0.99927V (ADS-118) or +1.249085V (ADS-118A) to the ANALOG
INPUT (pin 19).
2. Adjust the gain potentiometer until all output bits are 1's and the LSB
flickers between 1 and 0.
3. To confirm proper operation of the device, vary the input signal to obtain
the output coding listed in Table 1.
