DRIVER AMPLIFIER CHOICE

Although the AD7622 is easy to drive, the driver amplifier

needs to meet the following requirements:

•

For multichannel, multiplexed applications, the driver

amplifier and the AD7622 analog input circuit must be

able to settle for a full-scale step of the capacitor array at an

16-bit level (0.0015%). In the amplifier’s data sheet, settling

at 0.1% to 0.01% is more commonly specified. This could

differ significantly from the settling time at a 16-bit level

and should be verified prior to driver selection. The

AD8021 op amp, which combines ultralow noise and high

gain bandwidth, meets this settling time requirement even

when used with gains up to 13.

•

The noise generated by the driver amplifier needs to be

kept as low as possible to preserve the SNR and transition

noise performance of the AD7622. The noise coming from

the driver is filtered by the AD7622 analog input circuit

1-pole, low-pass filter made by RIN and CIN or by the

external filter, if one is used. The SNR degradation due

to the amplifier is

where:

f–3dB is the input bandwidth of the AD7622 (50 MHz) or

the cutoff frequency of the input RC filter shown in Figure 24

(3.9 MHz), if one is used.

N is the noise factor of the amplifier (1 in buffer

configuration).

eN+ and eN− are the equivalent input voltage noise densities

of the op amps connected to IN+ and IN−, in nV/√Hz.

This approximation can be used when the resistances used

around the amplifier are small. If larger resistances are

used, their noise contributions should also be root-sum

squared.

For instance, when using op amps with an equivalent input

noise density of 2.1 nV/√Hz, such as the AD8021, with a

noise gain of 1 when configured as a buffer, degrades the

SNR by only 0.1 dB when using the RC filter in Figure 24,

and by 1.3 dB without it.

•

The driver needs to have a THD performance suitable to

that of the AD7622. Figure 14 gives the THD vs. frequency

that the driver should exceed.

The AD8021 meets these requirements and is appropriate for

almost all applications. The AD8021 needs a 10 pF external

compensation capacitor that should have good linearity as an

NPO ceramic or mica type. Moreover, the use of a noninverting

1 gain arrangement is recommended and helps to obtain the

best signal-to-noise ratio.

The AD8022 can also be used when a dual version is needed

and a gain of 1 is present. The AD829 is an alternative in

applications where high frequency (above 100 kHz) performance is

not required. In applications with a gain of 1, an 82 pF

compensation capacitor is required. The AD8610 is an option

when low bias current is needed in low frequency applications.

Refer to Table 8 for some recommended op amps.

Single-to-Differential Driver

For applications using unipolar analog signals, a single-ended-

to-differential driver, as shown in Figure 28, allows for a

differential input into the part. This configuration, when

provided an input signal of 0 to VREF, produces a differential

±VREF with midscale at VREF/2. The 1-pole filter using R = 15 Ω

and C = 2.7nF provides a corner frequency of 3.9 MHz.

If the application can tolerate more noise, the AD8139

differential driver can be used.
