Design Notes
The AD7621ASTZ-RL7 operates from a single 2.5 V supply. Use low-noise LDO regulators to supply AVDD and DVDD separately to minimize digital noise coupling into the analog supply. Place 0.1 uF and 10 uF decoupling capacitors close to each power pin. The internal reference requires a stable supply; consider using a dedicated reference buffer if high accuracy is needed.
For optimal performance, use a solid ground plane and separate analog and digital ground areas, connecting them at a single point. Keep the analog input traces short and shielded to reduce noise pickup. The differential inputs should be routed as a pair with matched lengths. Place the ADC close to the signal source to minimize trace inductance.
Ensure the analog input voltage does not exceed the specified range to avoid damage. The reference pin should be bypassed with a 10 uF capacitor. When using the parallel interface, ensure proper timing to avoid bus contention. The internal conversion clock is sensitive to power supply noise; maintain clean supplies. Refer to the datasheet for layout guidelines.
