AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 11 of 24 on-chip registers the adc is controlled and configured via a number of on-chip registers, which are described on the following pages. in the following descriptions, set implies a logic 1 state and cleared implies a logic 0 state, unless otherwise stated. communication register rs2, rs1, rs0 0, 0, 0 the communication register is an 8-bit write-only register. all communication to the part must start with a write operation to this register. the data written to the communication register determines whether the next operation is a read or write opera- tion, and selects the register where this operation takes place. once the subsequent read or write operation to the selected register is complete, the interface returns to where it expects a write operation to the communication register (this is the default state of the interface). on power-up or after a reset, the adc is in this default state waiting for a write operation to the communication register. in situations where the interface sequence is lost, a write operation of at least 32 serial clock cycles with din high returns the adc to this default state by resetting the entire part. table 9 outlines the bit designations for the communication register. cr0 through cr7 indicate the bit location, with cr denoting that the bits are in the communication register. cr7 denotes the first bit of the data stream. the number in brackets indicates the power-on/reset default status of that bit. m s b l s b cr7 cr6 cr5 cr4 cr3 cr2 cr1 cr0 wen (0) r/ w (0) rs2(0) rs1(0) rs0(0) cread(0) 0(0) 0(0) table 9. communication register bit designations bit location bit name description cr7 wen write enable bit. a 0 must be written to this bit first to ensure that a write to the communication register occurs. if a 1 is the first bit written, the part does not cl ock onto subsequent bits in the register; it stays at this bit location until a 0 is writte n. once a 0 is written to the wen bit, the next seven bits are loaded to the communication register. cr6 r/ w a 0 in this bit location indicates that the next operatio n is a write to a specified register. a 1 in this position indicates that the next operation is a read from the designated register. cr5 to cr3 rs2 to rs0 register address bits. these address bits determine which adc registers are being selected during this serial interface communication. see table 10 . cr2 cread continuous read of the data register. when this bit is se t to 1 (and the data register is selected), the serial interface is configured to continuously read the data regi ster. for example, the contents of the data register are automatically placed on the dout pin when the sclk pulses are applied and after the rdy pin goes low. this indicates that a conversion is complete. the communication register does not have to be written to for data reads. to enable continuous read mode, the instruction 01011100 must be written to the communication register. to exit the continuous read mode, the instruction 01011000 must be written to the communication register while the rdy pin is low. while in continuous read mode, the adc monitors activity on the din line so it can receive the instruction to exit continuous read mode. a dditionally, a reset occurs if 32 consecutive 1s are seen on din. therefore, din should be held low in continuous read mode until an instruction is written to the device. cr1 to cr0 0 these bits must be programmed to logic 0 for correct operation. table 10. register selection rs2 rs1 rs0 register register size 0 0 0 communication register during a write operation 8 bits 0 0 0 status register during a read operation 8 bits 0 0 1 mode register 16 bits 0 1 0 configuration register 16 bits 0 1 1 data register 16 bits (AD7796), 24 bits (ad7797) 1 0 0 id register 8 bits 1 0 1 reserved 8 bits 1 1 0 offset register 16 bits (AD7796), 24 bits (ad7797) 1 1 1 full-scale register 16 bits (AD7796), 24 bits (ad7797)

AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 17 of 24 digital interface as outlined in the on-chip registers section, the AD7796/ ad7797 programmable functions are controlled by a set of on- chip registers. data is written to these registers via the parts serial interface and read access to the on-chip registers is also provided by this interface. all communication with the part must start with a write to the communication register. after power-on or reset, the device expects a write to its communication register. the data written to this register determines whether the next operation is a read or a write operation, and determines the register where this operation occurs. therefore, write access to any of the other registers on the part begins with a write operation to the communication register followed by a write to the selected register. a read operation from any other register (except when continuous read mode is selected) starts with a write to the communication register followed by a read operation from the selected register. the serial interface of the AD7796/ad7797 consists of four signals: cs , din, sclk, and dout/ rdy . the din line is used to transfer data into the on-chip registers, while dout/ rdy is used for accessing from the on-chip registers. sclk is the serial clock input for the device, and all data transfers (either on din or dout/ rdy ) occur with respect to the sclk signal. the dout/ rdy pin also operates as a data-ready signal, that is, the line goes low when a new data-word is available in the output register. it is reset high when a read operation from the data register is complete. dout/ rdy also goes high prior to the data register update to indicate when not to read from the device. this ensures that a data read is not attempted while the register is being updated. cs is used to select a device. it can be used to decode the AD7796/ad7797 in systems where several components are connected to the serial bus. figure 3 and figure 4 show timing diagrams for interfacing to the AD7796/ad7797 with cs being used to decode the part. figure 3 shows the timing for a read operation from the AD7796/ad7797 output shift register, while figure 4 shows the timing for a write operation to the input shift register. it is possible to read the same word from the data register several times, even though the dout/ rdy line returns high after the first read operation. however, care must be taken to ensure that the read operations have been completed before the next output update occurs. in continuous read mode, the data register can be read only once. the serial interface can operate in 3-wire mode by tying cs low. in this case, the sclk, din, and dout/ rdy lines are used to communicate with the AD7796/ad7797. the end of the conversion can be monitored using the rdy bit in the status register. this scheme is suitable for interfacing to micro- controllers. if cs is required as a decoding signal, it can be generated from a port pin. for microcontroller interfaces, it is recommended that sclk idle high between data transfers. the AD7796/ad7797 can be operated with cs being used as a frame synchronization signal. this scheme is useful for dsp interfaces. in this case, the first bit (msb) is effectively clocked out by cs because cs normally occurs after the falling edge of sclk in dsps. the sclk can continue to run between data transfers, provided the timing numbers are obeyed. the serial interface can be reset by writing a series of 1s on the din input. if a logic 1 is written to the AD7796/ad7797 din line for at least 32 serial clock cycles, the serial interface is reset. this ensures that the interface can be reset to a known state if the interface gets lost due to a software error or glitch in the system. reset returns the interface to the state where it is expecting a write to the communication register. this operation resets the contents of all registers to their power-on values. following a reset, the user should allow a period of 500 s before addressing the serial interface. the AD7796/ad7797 can be configured to continuously convert or to perform a single conversion. see figure 14 through figure 16 .

AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 20 of 24 circuit description analog input channel the AD7796/ad7797 have one differential analog input channel. the input channel feeds into a high impedance input stage of the amplifier. therefore, the input can tolerate signifi- cant source impedances and is tailored for direct connection to external resistive-type sensors such as strain gages. the absolute input voltage range is restricted to a range between gnd + 300 mv and av dd ? 1.1 v. care must be taken in setting up the common-mode voltage to avoid exceeding these limits. otherwise, there is degradation in linearity and noise performance. this low noise in-amp means that signals of small amplitude can be gained within the ad 7796/ad7797 while still maintain- ing excellent noise performance. the amplifier is configured to have a gain of 128. therefore, with an external 2.5 v reference, the unipolar range is 0 mv to 20 mv while the bipolar range is 20 mv. the common-mode voltage ((ain(+) + ain(C))/2 must be 0.5 v. bipolar/unipolar configuration the analog input to the AD7796/ad7797 can accept either unipolar or bipolar input voltage ranges. a bipolar input range does not imply that the part can tolerate negative voltages with respect to system gnd. unipolar and bipolar signals on the ain(+) input are referenced to the voltage on the ain(C) input. for example, if ain(?) is 2.5 v and the adc is configured for unipolar mode, the input voltage range on the ain(+) pin is 2.5 v to 2.02 v. if the adc is configured for bipolar mode, the analog input range on the ain(+) input is 2.48 v to 2.52 v. the bipolar/ unipolar option is chosen by programming the u/ b bit in the configuration register. data output coding when the adc is configured for unipolar operation, the output code is natural (straight) binary with a zero differential input voltage resulting in a code of 00...00, a midscale voltage resulting in a code of 100...000, and a full-scale input voltage resulting in a code of 111...111. the output code for any analog input voltage can be represented as code = (2 n ain 128)/ v ref when the adc is configured for bipolar operation, the output code is offset binary with a negative full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 000...000, a zero differential input voltage resulting in a code of 100...000, and a positive full-scale input voltage resulting in a code of 111...111. the output code for any analog input voltage can be represented as code = 2 n C 1 [( ain 128 / v ref ) + 1] where: ain is the analog input voltage n = 16/24 for the AD7796/ad7797. reference the AD7796/ad7797 have a fully differential input capability for the channel. the common-mode range for these differential inputs is gnd to av dd . the reference input is unbuffered; therefore, excessive r-c source impedances introduce gain errors. the reference voltage refin (refin(+) ? refin(?)) is 2.5 v nominal, but the AD7796/ad7797 are functional with reference voltages 0.1 v to av dd . in applications where the excitation (voltage or current) for the transducer on the analog input also drives the reference voltage for the part, the effect of the low frequency noise in the excitation source is removed because the application is ratiometric. if the AD7796/ad7797 are used in a nonratiometric application, a low noise reference should be used. recommended 2.5 v reference voltage sources for the AD7796/ ad7797 include the adr381 and adr391, which are low noise, low power references. also note that the reference inputs provide a high impedance, dynamic load. because the input impedance of each reference input is dynamic, resistor/capacitor combinations on these inputs can cause dc gain errors, depending on the output impedance of the source that is driving the reference inputs. reference voltage sources such as those recommended above (the adr391, for example) typically have low output impedances and are, therefore, tolerant to decoupling capacitors on refin(+) without introducing gain errors in the system. deriving the reference input voltage across an external resistor means that the reference input sees a significant external source impedance. external decoupling on the refin pins is not recommended in this type of circuit configuration.
AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 21 of 24 reset the circuitry and serial interface of the AD7796/ad7797 can be reset by writing 32 consecutive 1s to the device. this resets the logic, the digital filter, and the analog modulator, while all on-chip registers are reset to their default values. a reset is automatically performed on power-up. when a reset is initiated, the user must allow a period of 500 s before accessing any of the on-chip registers. a reset is useful if the serial interface becomes asynchronous because of noise on the sclk line. burnout currents the AD7796/ad7797 contain two 100 na constant current generators, one sourcing current from av dd to ain(+) and one sinking current from ain(C) to gnd. both currents are either on or off, depending on the burnout current enable (bo) bit in the configuration register. these currents can be used to verify that an external transducer is still operational before attempting to take measurements. when the burnout currents are turned on, they flow in the external transducer circuit, and a measure- ment of the input voltage on the analog input channel can be taken. if the resulting voltage is full scale, the user needs to verify why this is the case. a full-scale reading could mean that the front-end sensor is open circuit. it could also mean that the front-end sensor is overloaded and is justified in outputting full scale, or that the reference could be absent, thus clamping the data to all 1s. when reading all 1s from the output, the user needs to check these three cases before making a judgment. if the voltage measured is 0 v, it could indicate that the transducer has short circuited. for normal operation, these burnout currents are turned off by writing a 0 to the bo bit in the configuration register. av dd monitor along with converting external voltages, the adc can be used to monitor the voltage on the av dd pin. when bit ch2 to bit ch0 equal 1, the voltage on the av dd pin is internally attenuated by 6. the resulting voltage is applied to the - modulator using an internal 1.17 v reference for analog-to- digital conversion. this is useful because variations in the power supply voltage can be monitored. temperature monitor the AD7796/ad7797 have an embedded temperature sensor that is accessed when bit ch2 to bit ch0 are equal to 1, 1, 0, respectively. when the internal temperature sensor is selected, the AD7796/ad7797 use an internal 1.17 v reference for the conversions. the temperature sensor has a sensitivity of 0.81 mv/c. however, a two-point calibration is required to optimize the accuracy. the temperature sensor is not factory calibrated; a user calibration is required. following a calibration, the accuracy is 2c. calibration the AD7796/ad7797 provide three calibration modes that can be programmed via the mode bits in the mode register. these are internal zero-scale calibration, system zero-scale calibration, and system full-scale calibration, which effectively reduces the offset error and full-scale error to the order of the noise. after each conversion, the adc conversion result is scaled using the adc calibration registers before being written to the data register. the offset calibration coefficient is subtracted from the result prior to multiplication by the full-scale coefficient. to start a calibration, write the relevant value to the md2 to md0 bits in the mode register. dout/ rdy goes high when the calibration is initiated. after the calibration is complete, the contents of the corresponding calibration registers are updated, the rdy bit in the status register is set, the dout/ rdy pin goes low (if cs is low), and the AD7796/ad7797 revert to idle mode. during an internal zero-scale calibration, the zero input is automatically connected internally to the adc input pins. a system calibration, however, expects the system zero-scale and system full-scale voltages to be applied to the adc pins before the calibration mode is initiated. in this way, external adc errors are removed. from an operational point of view, a calibration should be treated like another adc conversion. a zero-scale calibration (if required) should always be performed before a full-scale calibration. system software should monitor the rdy bit in the status register or the dout/ rdy pin to determine the end of calibration via a polling sequence or an interrupt-driven routine. both an internal offset calibration and system offset calibration takes two conversion cycles. an internal offset calibration is not needed because the adc itself removes the offset continuously. a system full-scale calibration takes two conversion cycles to complete. the measured full-scale coefficient is placed in the full-scale register. if system offset calibrations are being performed along with system full-scale calibrations, the offset calibration should be performed before the system full-scale calibration is initiated.
AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 22 of 24 grounding and layout because the analog input and reference input of the adc are differential, most of the voltages in the analog modulator are common-mode voltages. the excellent common-mode reject- ion of the part removes common-mode noise on these inputs. the digital filter provides rejection of broadband noise on the power supply, except at integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency. the digital filter also removes noise from the analog and reference inputs provided that these noise sources do not saturate the analog modulator. as a result, the AD7796/ad7797 are more immune to noise interference than conventional high resolution converters. however, because the resolution of the AD7796/ad7797 is so high, and the noise levels from the AD7796/ad7797 are so low, care must be taken with regard to grounding and layout. the printed circuit board that houses the AD7796/ad7797 should be designed such that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. a minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes because it gives the best shielding. it is recommended that the gnd pins of the AD7796/ad7797 be tied to the agnd plane of the system. in any layout, it is important that the user pay attention to the flow of currents in the system, and ensure that the return paths for all currents are as close as possible to the paths the currents took to reach their destinations. avoid forcing digital currents to flow through the agnd sections of the layout. the ground planes of the AD7796/ad7797 should be allowed to run under the AD7796/ad7797 to prevent noise coupling. the power supply lines to the AD7796/ad7797 should use as wide a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. fast switching signals such as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board, and clock signals should never be run near the analog inputs. avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. this reduces the effects of feedthrough through the board. a micro-strip technique is by far the best, but it is not always possible with a double-sided board. in this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes, while signals are placed on the solder side. good decoupling is important when using high resolution adcs. av dd should be decoupled with 10 f tantalum in parallel with 0.1 f capacitors to gnd. dv dd should be decoupled with 10 f tantalum in parallel with 0.1 f capacitors to the systems dgnd plane, with the systems agnd to dgnd connection being close to the AD7796/ ad7797. to achieve the best results from these decoupling components, they should be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. all logic chips should be decoupled with 0.1 f ceramic capacitors to dgnd.
AD7796/ad7797 rev. a | page 23 of 24 applications the AD7796/ad7797 offer a high resolution analog-to-digital function. because the analog-to-digital function is provided by a - architecture, the parts are more immune to noisy environments, making them ideal for use in sensor measurement, and industrial and process-control applications. weigh scales figure 17 shows the AD7796/ad7797 being used in a weigh scale application. the load cell is arranged in a bridge network and gives a differential output voltage between its out+ and outC terminals. assuming a 5 v excitation voltage, the full- scale output range from the transducer is 10 mv when the sensitivity is 2 mv/v. the excitation voltage for the bridge can be used to directly provide the reference for the adc because the reference input range includes the supply voltage. this allows a ratiometric measurement. therefore, variations of the excitation voltage do not affect the measurement. the on-chip temperature sensor can be used for temperature compensation of the bridge so the variation of the sensor resistance with temperature drift can be monitored and the conversions from the bridge can be compensated.
