CS5560
3.4 Analog Input
The analog input of the converter is fully differential with a peak-to-peak input of 4.096 volts on each input.
Therefore, the differential, peak-to-peak input is 8.192 volts. This is illustrated in Figure 6 and Figure 7.
These diagrams also illustrate a differential buffer amplifier configuration for driving the CS5560.
The capacitors at the outputs of the amplifiers provide a charge reservoir for the dynamic current from the
A/D inputs while the resistors isolate the dynamic current from the amplifier. The amplifiers can be pow-
ered from higher supplies than those used by the A/D but precautions should be taken to ensure that the
op amp output voltage remains within the power supply limits of the A/D, especially under start-up condi-
tions.
3.5 Output Coding Format
The reference voltage directly defines the input voltage range in both the unipolar and bipolar configura-
tions. In the unipolar configuration (BP/UP low), the first code transition occurs 0.5 LSB above zero, and
the final code transition occurs 1.5 LSBs below VREF. In the bipolar configuration (BP/UP high), the first
code transition occurs 0.5 LSB above -VREF and the last transition occurs 1.5 LSBs below +VREF. See
Table 1 for the output coding of the converter.
