In the acquisition phase, each input sees ap- draw a current spike when entering acquisition. proximately 45pF (CIN) from the sampling CDAC in series For best performance, a buffer amplifier should be used with 40Ω (RON) from the on-resistance of the sampling to drive the analog inputs of the LTC2382-16.

When the LTC2382-16 the current spike the ADC inputs draw 2.5V 1.8V TO 5V . is not acquiring the input, the analog inputs draw only a small leakage current. ANALOG INPUT 10µF 0.1µF 0V TO 2.5V

The simple 1- 23816 TA01 20µF pole RC lowpass filter (LPF1) TO-DIFFERENTIAL 111...111 DRIVER shown in Figure 4 is sufficient for many applications. 111...110 Another filter network consisting of LPF2 and the 100Ω series 100...001 FSR = +FS – –FS input resistors should be used between the buffer and ADC OUTPUT CODE (TWO’S COMPLEMENT) 100...000 1LSB = FSR/65536 inputs to both minimize the noise contribution of the buffer and to help minimize disturbances reflected into the buffer –FSR/2 –1 0V 1 FSR/2 – 1LSB LSB LSB from sampling transients. Long RC time constants at the INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 238216 F02 analog inputs will slow down the settling of the analog inputs.

Therefore, LPF2 requires a wider bandwidth than LPF1. A buffer amplifier with a low noise density must be selected to REF minimize degradation of the SNR. With the 482kHz lowpass filter shown in Figure 4, the LT6350 provides the full data R C ON IN IN+ sheet performance of the LTC2382-16. High quality capacitors and resistors should be used in the BIAS RC filters since these components can add distortion. NPO REF VOLTAGE and silver mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent R C ON IN IN– linearity. Carbon surface mount resistors can generate distortion from self heating and from damage that may occur during soldering. Metal film surface mount resistors 238216 F03 are much less susceptible to both problems.
